Murray Waller Goldenberg BORN leader is rare. The junior Class of the School of Education is fortunate to have such a man for its president. He is Murray Walter Goldenberg. He hails from New Utrecht High, where he left a long record of activities. He has wisely continued this program at college. Some of his activities are: N. Y. U. Varsity Boxing and Soccer Teams, coach of the Physical Education Boxing Club, Editor-in-Chief of the Education Violet, and President of the Violet Scroll. In athletics he has been active in football, basketball, track, and baseball. Athletics, however, are not his sole interest. In fact, he may be classed as one of those versatile individuals who balance their daily program with a variety of wholesome pursuits. Science holds a keen fascination for him. At one time he worked as a pharmacist. john Dewey is his favorite author, the study of philosophy, the occupation of his leisure hours. With his time so closely limited, Mr. Goldenberg finds ample opportunity to romp with the bevy of youngsters who are happy to call him uncle. He is a Brooklynite, a lover of home and children. We are not crystal gazers, but we can predict that the Education juniors, with so able a leader, will climb to hitherto unartained achievement. 108

Junior Promenade V ARCH 6, 1931 is a date that will be long remembered in the School of Educa- tion. It was on that date that the first successful class formal was held. The Juniors, Class of '32, turned out 104 strong to celebrate the event. At 9:30 P.M., the festivities began. The receiving line, composed of Dean and Mrs. Payne, Miss Vollmer, Mr. McDonald, Mr. Murray W. Goldenberg, Miss Lipschitz, Miss Migliore and Mr. William Dykes, welcomed the guests as they arrived. Dancing started almost immediately to the tuneful offerings of the Hotel Hollywood Orchestra. Every one entered the spirit of the occasion and things buzzed along merrily. At a quarter to twelve the floor was cleared while the tables were set and the com- mittee placed the favors. At midnight, Mr. Edward Solotar conducted the promenade which was led by Dean and Mrs. Payne. Much to Ed's embarrassment, he and Miss Migliore, as the most popular couple of the class, had to pass through the gauntlet formed by the rest of the guests. Then all went to their respective places and stood to sing the Palisades, - At the conclusion of the meal, Mr. William Dyckes, as chairman, welcomed the guests and introduced as the Speakers of the evening, Dean Payne, who congratulated the class for its spirit and cooperation in inaugurating this custom, Miss Vollmer, who expressed pleasure at the success of the affair, and Mr. Goldenberg, the class president, who complimented the class on its social and scholastic activities. Then one by one the members of the committee were introduced to the group: Miss Migliore, in charge of guests, Miss Perlman, publicity, Miss Rupp, hotel arrangements, Mr. Reilly, favors, Mr. Reich, program, and Mr. Solotar, music. The tables were removed immediately following the speeches and dancing was continued. judging from the expressions and actions of the promenaders everybody had an enjoyable time. One even went so far as to state that the school would never be able to duplicate the affair, but wait till the Senior Prom! ! ! 110
