Jim Katz Jim needs only a hand microphone to complete his personification of the fast talking, candid, and forward sports announcer. Jim establishes the odds for all school events and expresses himself without reservation. he is as poised on the basketball court as he is in conversation. Would there be a Jim Katz if sports did not exist? No! Jim is the quick, composed, and sincere sportsman-Always. Will Kuhlmcmn Reserved is the usual mood in which one finds Will but frequent bursts of enthusiasm make this character anything but static. He participates in three Varsity sports alternating from soccer goalie, to basketball and finally to baseball-as the seasons progress. Tall and lean and quiet would describe his outward appearance, but Will cannot be measured by these factors alone, for his concern for teammates and friends is a trait which exceeds all others. Bill Lax Bill can always be found in the midst of frantic attempts to meet Press Club deadlines. His disposition lies in extremes of despair and elation, but even in despair, Bill finds life quite comical, laughing at tragedy as well as elephant jokes. He is not a person who easily rejects a dare or abandons a challenge and sudden spurts of energy on the soccer field attest to his unrelenting spirit.

If a question need only require a yes or no answer . . . that's all he answers. Dave is humorous, perceptive and an on the spot commentator of events. He is sincere-alway's he's Dave. Ira Levine Ira Levine is the jovial member of the class of '64. His liery temper often makes him the center of many humorous scirrnishes where his true, fun-loving tendencies are revealed. Ira displays his intellectual capabilities in the classroom. Academically he ranks high in the class. although he wants to be associated exclusively with his intellectual interests, he disdains intellectuals. Ira's character is truly a paradox, to his friends he is warm and happy, to those who do not know him well he seems brooding and silent. Bruce McKobc1 Outwardly subdued, inwardly rebellious, Bruce represents the carefree and unemotional of the class of '64. athletically inclined but academically unmoved Bruce's mind wanders to more personally stimulating thoughts he has earned three letters in his favorite sport-soccer two letters in track as a high jumper Bruceis vendetta is against'those rules and regulations which muzzle him.
