PATRICK HENRY HIGH SCHOOL -October 27, 1978 San Diego, Calif. A Volume 1 1, Number 3 Polish Jews Struggle to Survive in 'The Wall' l The Wall, the three act drama of the struggle and holocaust of the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto during World War II opens another Drama Production season on November 7. Adapted by Millard Lampoll from John Horaoy'a novel, The Wall begins with the joy of wed- dings and a birth to the end fought with desperation, anger, vengeance, thinking they had waited too long to fight back. The large cast of 25 portrays varying characters reacting differently to the situation. Dolek Berson is totally cool. A suave loner only looking out for himself, Dolek understands that the Germans are trying to Mickey Mouse Wall Clock Mugged Again Whats the point of fixing the clock if vandals will break it again, Principal Frank Thorn- ton said. The Mickey Mouse quad clock was broken by vandals who stole the hands five weeks ago. The clock worked last year despite other vandals who fool- ed with the CIOCK'S hands and changed its time. The clock is currently in an electrical shop getting new hands put on and a complete overhaul. The approximate cost of fixing the clock is sixty-five dollars. Thornton said that if the van- dals were apprehended they would pay for the repair of the clock, if they are not caught, the Operating fund will have to pay for the repairs. Thornton feels that the van- dals responsible for the graftiti on the school buildings are also responsible for the damage of the clock. The clock, donated by the Allied Gardens Womens Club in 1969, hasn't always been adorn- ed with Mickey's portrait. According to Administrative Assistant Jamea Dobbln, Mickey was painted about- five years ago by benevolent van- daIs. Two common causes of breakage occur when someone does pullups or trys to force the arms in some way. - lim Wilson Randy Sutton C SFERTHCIDRESC'-1' TJCDRZRTEHE Distribution of Financial Aidi packets containing forms on the l state and national level com-' 1 mences Wednesday, November , 1. improperly filled out .applications mailed after January 3 and before the first of' February will be delayed and money may not be available.

Dolek is ironically attracted to a serious minded, plain 24 year old, Rachel Apt. Senior Meg Heldrlck described her character, Rachel fights back in order to survive. Rachel is the backbone of a family with an irresponsible father iBruco Haiti, innocent 9 year old brother lSophomore Andy Peaooi, and a lightheaded sister lhonoo Morgan.l Fischel Shpunt, the 64 year old peddler, is animated by Junior Jeff Klein. FischeI is a wise businessman with the instinct to survive. He exaggerates his heart palpitations and amuses everyone as a foolish old man but he knows the trains of Jews are not going to relocation camps but to their deaths, Jeff said. Pavola Menkes fSr. Linda Oostmeyerl, the widow baker, tries to see a light of hope that someone will come to save them. The druggist. Kogan lJr. Brett Kellyi, changes from a dignified family man to a desolate human being only con- cerned with saving himself. One of the more liberal per- sons in the ghetto, Katz, tries to convince everyone else to resist but is ignored until the end, Stan Gllckman said of his part. Ticket sales build the treasury to pay for the sets un- der LarryTrouba and the royalty of S50 for the first performance and S25 for each additional show on November 8, 9, 14, 15 and the 17. The Wall is student directed by Liz Otero under Director Mike Auor and produced by Jonny Braun . Levinson Archive John Hersey based his novel on the Yiddish journals of Noah Levinson who explicitly record- ed three and a half years of ex- isting within the eight foot high wall surrounding the Warsaw Ghetto. Four survivors lead a group of surveyors through the rubble of Warsaw the summer after the end of the war to recover the Levinson Archive according to the directions N.L. had left. The only building standing within the wall was the Gensia St. Jail, the prison, but the crew managed to locate the records in the corners of two courtyards. A solitary man, Levinson reported the struggle of the Jews in over four million words before he died of lobar pneumonia in March, 1944. Authentic Props The equipped German un- iforms, solid barrel gun replicas, and the personal papers of a Berlin university professor in the production belong tothe antique collection of senior Jay Lance. Germany army uniforms with an East Front Medal and Se- cond Class lroii C.oss ribbon: valued at S100 each, helmets lS35i, belts, buckles, ammo pouches, horse fur covered backpacks, and one original pair of boots lS100l are all souvenirs from World War ll. The professor's personal papers dated from 1935-1943 include receipts for Union dues. working papers, a rare oil cloth identity card kept in his wallet which enabled him to travel to and from the university. The oil cloth usually dis- integrates quickly, Lance said. But on this one, even the photo of his stern profile is intact. - Cathy Schofield Patriot Statue Vanishes for Record Twenty Days The 'Spirit of Patrick Henry' vanished the evening of Oc- tober 5 and wasn't discovered missing until students and faculty arrived the next morning on the day of the Point Loma football game. Security Agent Stove Camblln said he filed a theft report when it was not dis- covered on any of the rivalry campuses as in two previous cases with Crawiord and Mira Mesa. The eight foot statue donated by the Class of '75 was found hanging from the Crawford gym two years ago. The Crawford ASB paid for two hundred dollars damage inflicted upon the statue. Mira Mesa 'borrowed' it last year to sit upon the top of the building on their campus. The Patriot, valued at 51,200, was twisted from its three- quarter inch bolts in the last theft. Manufactured from fiberglass, it is easy for one per- son to carry, according to custodians Gauntlett and Schenkelberg. rfamrtiin uid that if tha statue is returned, it will most likely be filled with cement, making it practically impossible to remove. - Teresa Sams Tony Fall 1: CBMUBE3 it za 033653 The Inter-Club Council was included in the re-writing of the constitutional by-laws last year to increase school unity under the Human Relations Com- missioner Jeanne Merino. Every club must send one representative to the next monthly meeting on November 1. lf a club misses three meetings, the charter is revok- ed, according to the by-laws. 1 The Council will attempt to fsolve conflicting club events, raise funds for a treasury . separate from ASB to bail out financially troubled clubs, and plan Brother-hood and Black - Awareness Weeks in February. l Berson on the stage of The Wall opening the eleventh Drama Produc- tion season on November 7. iPhoto by Roger Weatherfordq Sophomores Required to Pass Competency Test Passing the Competency test is required for tenth graders un- der a new California law before receiving a high school diploma. The first testing period began October 19 and will last until November 15, for the duration of eight class periods. Subjects tested are math, engIish,and reading. Math questions asked deal with whole numbers, decimals, frac- tions, and graphs. Comprehen- sion, filling out a job application and a 'letter of request' fulfill the English section. If a student fails the test the first time, makeups will be ad- ministered in March.

Robert, 16, attended this school last year before moving back East in February. Close friend Ron Barnes said, Rob was a really cool guy. lt's too bad this had to happen. The students offer their deepest sympathy to the famity and friends. died october 14 cj, I 3 I f f P , ff ' 5 F A high school diploma will be held back from any student not passing by 12th grade gradua- tion. A certificate of participa- tion will probably be sub- stituted. The test will have an impact in the classrooms, Vice- Principal Joan Liddell said. lt could mean we'li have to teach some things differently, es- pecially in the basic skills area. We don't know where we're go- ing to stand since this is the first time the test has been given. - Stacy Turner 1-iHi3STUiEL-mfr EllllErT'iQfMVEIllil l'5 Q FROM RED i-iiLL l PAGE TVif'Of, PERSPECTIVES l PAGE THREE ITHE PlPELlNE , PAGE FOURII THE CAVE l PAGE ENE HGMECGMNG PAGE sixl SPORTS PAGE SEVEN 8: PAGE EIGHT
