An outstanding event of this term took place at one of our assemblies when we were honored by the presence of Mr. Jonathan Bingham, a candi- date for the 23rd Congressional District, and Dr. Leon Nadrowsky, chair- man ofthe Physicians' Committee for Goldwater. They were two interesting and informative men. Outside the walls of Roosevelt, a hard fought cam- paign was taking place, as Mr. Lyndon Johnson ond Senator Barry Gold- water contested forthe i964 presidential election. Lyndon Johnson became the 35th president of the United States. Yet, there is something deeper than iust these events that brings special meaning to the word senior, The dictionary definition reads, more ad- vanced in dignity, rank, or office, and perhaps that is the answer. We have achieved a sense of belonging and a feeling of possessing qualities developed with the help of a devoted faculty. We have also learned the importance of the intimate friends we have acquired during our stay at Roosevelt. Janet Kaplan and Fran Blattstein QD 425 MAI-ZLA DEVUTSCH

Days seemed to leave almost before they arrived. Time moved ever so quickly, carrying with it memories of our past three or four years at Theodore Roosevelt. Many events have occurred and many good times have been had by all. The dances, the trips, the performances of Roose- velt's students at talent and fashion shows, and many other occasions are now things of the past, never to be forgotten. Other unforgetables in- clude-failing tests, struggling through Regents, our beautiful cafeteria, and, May I have your attention please? Please listen to me, this is Mr. Saltman speaking. They all went to make up a very enioyable stay at Roosevelt. One of the events characterizing our senior year was Red Letter Day last November. This was one event all seniors looked forward to with great anticipation because it was the one day set aside to boast seniorship. The winter months brought a skating party which was attended by many of us and proved to be an exciting evening for everyone. Our annual Spring Concert was proof of the many hours of rehearsing that all band, orches- tra, glee club and chorus members had gone through to make their last public appearance in Roosevelt a successful one. The applause they re- ceived showed that they had reached their goal. June brought many thrilling events the first of which was our annual boatride to Playland. This is the highlight of any year at Roosevelt, but this year it meant iust a little more to the seniors. Since it was our last, we made it our best. Characteristics were a watermelon on the boat, scat- tered guitars, screams heard from the roller coaster, cotton candy, loads of fun, and more of the same. On the way home, each of us felt sad, knowing we would not be here next year to enioy the excitement of this wonderful day. We will never forget the feelings of happiness and nos- talgia we experienced on this day.
