Although at the time of this writing no official games have been played, high hopes loom for a rewarding season. We have with us ballplayers such as Sandy Taboh, Joe Kazlauskas, Shelly Basis, Whitey Rothlein, Larry Weinstein and Tony Palaranno, all veterans. Kazlauskas and Taboh, both obtaining high batting averages last year, .440 and .450 respectively, promise to be more than just valuable to this year's team. Marty Aronson, undefeated season pitcher last year, held four wins, zero lost record. Allen Revert, Stan Revet, Bob Solomon, Stan Hopter and Bob Adeline also show good poten- tials in the pitching end. Coach Mr. Schain anticipates a good showing by all last year's returning members along with favorable expectations for the new incoming players. Stan Eisenberg

X wi? 4 3 I uf so TENNIS A LOVE GAME 2.332 The HLovebirds, T. .l.'s trained seals, adeptly send a little white ball over a waist-high net with the hope that the opposition wonit be able to return it. Their trainer, Mr. Rip Goldman, has whipped them into a strong unit and has aided the development of each player. Five of last yearis seven players are again on the team and each has made great improvement in style, form, and performance over the summer. David Rosenthal, last year's high scorer, has been appointed captain. Michael Dannenberg has developed a low fast slice that is an extremely potent weapon against opponents. Brian Lazarus, another veteran, has developed a good backhand and takes pickups more easily than ever. Harry Lisnolf, our steadiest player, has per- fected his backhand and has developed a low serve. Elliot Moseska. last year's style boy, has a fast hooking serve that is dynamite. We have a strong reserve of newcomers who, working together with the veterans, will form a strong team, and expectations are high for this year. Brian Lazarus

jul? S 4 DANCE UP ON YOUR TOES Every Monday and Tuesday mornings, during the third period, a group of girls known as dancers meet in the gym. These girls have had some previous training in dancing and have a good scholastic average, therefore qualifying for the class. Mrs. Solow, our very competent teacher, calls the class together and informs the girls about their problems. Some of the problems have been: The Student Aid shows, rhythm patterns for the girls of the regular gym classes and auditorium programs. After a brief orientation, the girls divide into groups, and proceed to work out the problem. Attitude and animation have been the inspirational words of Mrs. Solow which have helped us through our many demanding problems. Rosalie Zucker
