MOSES LIPELES HARRY MARKS and is the faculty advisor of the SHS, Announcerfi Although he is olticial disciplanarian, his relations with the student body are pleasant and of great benefit to those with whom he comes in contact. One of the most tedious jobs in school administration is the task of program- ing and assigning members of the faculty to their duties every term. This task is handled most capably by Mr. Jacob Wortnian, administrative assistant in charge of organization. The dean of the morning session is Mr. Moses R. Lipeles, whose administrative duties are similar to those of Mr. Hart. He is also well known for his work in the Chemistry and Physics departments, as well as at the posts of G.O. adviser and leader of the A.M. assemblies. Mr. Lipeles has also been respon- sible for maintaining cordial relationships between the faculty and the Parents Association. Mr. Harry Marks has, for many years, been an invaluable member of Stuy- vesant English dept. and administrative staff. As dean of the senior class, he has been instrumental in arranging our scholarship lectures and has given in- estimable help in advising seniors in matters pertaining to college admission. Another very active organ of this body is Doctor Joseph T. Shipley, the eminent drama critic. As senior class adviser and faculty leader of Arista, Stuyvesant's honor society, he has worked unceasingly to maintain the scholastic prowess of our school. As faculty adviser to the '6INDICAT0R his services have been indispensable, and with his excellent judgment and guidance we have endeav- ored to make this issue of the 64INDICATOR a worthy successor to those which have preceded it. We cannot close this record without mention of Mrs. Krasnogor, Mrs. Fink, Mrs. Elmes, Miss Feigenblatt, Mrs. Curtis, Miss Dickson, and the other mem- bers of the office and secretarial staffs. Their unfailing courtesy and willingness to help added much to our happiness at Stuyvesant. All of the aforementioned members of the administrative staff, with able assistance of the general faculty comprise the living, breathing body of intelli- gent, efficient and understanding men and women who with untiring devotion to their tasks have made S.H.S. our well-loved alma mater.

Each member of our staff of instructors is a highly trained educator. Their excellent instruc- tion and understanding guidance have been instrumental in help- ing us to become educated as well as mature citizens. Wle owe a great deal to these men and women, who have prepared and implemented a fine, well rounded curriculum. The mathematics department, under the direction of Mr. Simon Berman twho is the co-author of a new and very excellent Algebra textl offers a great variety of mathematics courses, ranging from Elementary Algebra and Plane Geometry to Calculus and Pre- Engineering Math. These courses are further supplemented by Honor Classes in many subjects which make available for 'the gifted student, advanced training. With Mr. Edwin Katz as its chairman, the English department has taught us to appreciate the beauty of our language as well as its proper use and history. Courses in Public Speaking, Drama, Crea- tive and Scientific Writing, Radio Script Writing and College Preparation are also offered to honor students interested in 'those fields. The English department has also made its classrooms the medium of self'-expression for the student. The llistory Department has the difficult task of helping us to understand tht- significance of national and international events. both past and present. Excellent courses are offered in American and World History, Economics and Civics. Applications of modern day history and economics, as well as the regular syllabus are intensively studied. This vital department is under the leadership of Doctor Samuel Steinberg. Doctor Alexander Efron's Physics department has been responsi- ble for producing some of America's finest engineers and physi- cists. ln addition to the regular course, the department offers to the aspiring scientist, a group of advanced and laboratory courses as, Applied Physics, Applied Electricity, Radio and Electronic Experimnetation, and Applied Mechanics. It is easily seen that the Physics Department is an integral part of our school. The Chemistry department., ably led by Mr. Douglas Bowden, offers in addition to the general course of Elementary Chemistry, a laboratory class in Qualatative Analysis for students who desire advanced training. This course is recognized by many colleges as a year of elementary college chemistry. The Stuyvesant Biology Department has offered laboratory courses in Zoology and Biology technique. These are advanced courses which provide some background for Pre-Medical work. Of course there are two courses offered in General Biology. This
