Lipeles, whom many of us will remember as G. O. Adviser until his appoint- ment as Dean of the Morning Session, has charge of the school until Mr. Schoenberg arrives and is responsible for the A.M. Assembly. Both as an administrator and as a teacher. the personality of Mr. Lipeles has added a spark of vitality to the faculty of our school. Mr, Harry Marks is the Dean of the Senior Class and is a gentleman all of us have had acquaintance with during our senior year at Stuyvesant. Mr. Marks advises us in matters pertaining to education, scholarships and college. We are also grateful to him for undertaking the arrangement of the scholarship lectures. Because of his untiring effort and his faith in Stuyvesant students, many Stuyvesant boys have won scholarships, the total amount of which is increasing each year. Dr. joseph T. Shipley also performs many services for us. He is Senior Class Advisor and the Faculty Advisor of the Arista, the Honor Society of Stuyvesant. The well-liked teacher, author, poet and critic also serves as Master of Ceremonies at the commencement exercises. Dr. Shipley is also advisor to the Indicator. Mrs. Krasnogor, who is in charge of Senior Records, carries carefully through the increasingly difficult task of filling out the transcripts for students' college applications. Mrs, Marran has helped many of us obtain after-school jobs in her capacity as Place- ment Counsellor. The men and women who comprise the administrative and clerical division of Stuyvesant are persons of great character, patience and perseverance. They hold their eminence not only for the successful completion of the tasks assigned to them but because they have shown themselves concerned with their work beyond the line of duty. They have indeed earned the gratitude of every student who has attended Stuyvesant. 13

Jizfclm inifffrafion The excellent administration of our school has been one of the factors responsible for the present prominence of Stuyvesant as one of the best schools in New York State. Among the most important factors is the kindness, the understanding, and the generosity of our Principal, Mr. Fred Schoenberg. His sincere help and advice has aided in the extension and coordination of our extra-curricular activities He has always been willing to confer with representatives of the student bodies and has always been ready to hear a complaint and to offer a solution to the problem. He has always been progressive in his outlook on education and the many improvements in the curriculum of our school have been the result of constant painstaking research and thought on his part. We have been lucky to have Mr. Schoenberg as our guardian-angel these past years. Assistants to Mr. Schoenberg in his administrative capacity are Mr. jacob Wortinan. Mr. Hubert Hart, and Mr, Moses Lipeles. Mr. Wortman is the Administrative Assistant in charge of personnel and has the important task of supervising programming and other organizational responsibilities, including the designation of assignments to the members of the faculty. Mr. Hubert Hart is Dean of the Afternoon Session. He is in charge of the P.M. Assembly and the weekly S.H.S. Announcer. He also has charge of general school discipline and assists Mr. Schoenberg with such minor problems as parents and strikes. Mic. lllllll in llfxiii' Mit. glacoii XY7URTMAN 12

Mr. Berman's Mathematics Department offered us more and better courses in Mathematics than any school in New York. There were sub- jects ranging from Elementary Algebra to Solid Geometry and including Calculus, Surveying and Junior Engineering. Honor classes were con- ducted in each subject to give advanced training to the talented pupils Ilffloflg US. Many of us have first learned the true beauty of our language after taking one of the English Departments courses. Mr. Katz, the department head, hopes to have every Stuyvesant graduate aware of what makes the language he so easily uses so important to writers and poets. Special classes in Creative Writing, Speaking, Drama and Journalism have supplemented the regular course. Our Social Studies Department, headed by Dr. Steinberg, has given us a fascinating series of courses in Civics, World and American History, and Economics. A broad understanding of the problems that confront us, was successfully taught us by its excellent teachers. The science departments have gone far beyond the regular Glrriculum in order to give us the most advanced training possible. Dr. Efron's well- equipped Physics Department gave us not only the elementary material but, in addition, such courses as Applied Physics, Experimental Physics and Electronics. Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis were the extra contributions of Mr. Bowden's Chemistry Department. Zoology and Biology Laboratory courses were given by Mr. Tolle's Biology Department, in addition to the regular biology course. It is for these reasons, including special science shops for individual projects, that Stuyvesant holds sudi a high position as a science high school. Many of us will find that the foreign languages which we have studied will be of great importance in later life.
