We looked forward to such days in the future, filled with equal amounts of fun and excitement. The next social event we awaited was the annual Spring Concert given by our music department. Once again the performers outdid themselves. About this time, the thought of final exams became eminent and we began some serious studying. These exams were necessary evils and we met them in the best way we could. Great expectations filled us on the last day of school. We received our report cards and then thought about summer vacation. We had grown to love Roosevelt in the short time we'd been here, and were proud to call it our school. Coming into Roosevelt was like getting up in the morning and and going through a busy and exciting day, and the end of the year was like going back to sleep again In our dreams we prepared ourselves for j . ff Q nother day, and the beginning of another year.

None of us knew exactly what to expect, but we all wanted to meet others who felt the same way. Our third term at Roosevelt was the scene of many events. Our little adopted boy, Jai-Sun Kim, whom we got through the Save the Children Federation, wrote to us from his home in Seoul, Korea. New faces ap- peared at home, too. Mr. Arnold Moss, Mrs. Katherine Helfer, Miss Martha Scriven, and Mrs. Karen Kornhauser joined the Roosevelt faculty. Mr. Jacob Cohen was promoted to the well-deserved position of Chairman of the Mathematics Department. We witnessed the debut of the Leaders Training Club. Barbara Spencer became a Junior Olympics winner when she outran her competition in the forty yard dash. She is among our many athletically inclined students. As the term progressed we were made aware of the many social activi- ties that were offered. That year, the Halloween Hop proved to be a huge success. Many of our students showed great enthusiasm towards school events and clubs, and this encouraged shy sophomores to become an active pa rt of Roosevelt. It was at this time that the Square Deal interviewed some well-known celebrities. Eddie Fisher was interrogated backstage after a performance at the Wintergarden, and Robert Reed was the other performer who was -questioned by our roving reporters. Our first real introduction to the talent our school posesses was at the annual Christmas Assembly. We were very impressed at hearing the differ- ent vocal groups and the instrumental accompaniments.
