Proudly, but with trembling knees, we entered the big white building, for— We were sophies, fresh and green. Well, mostly fresh, is what I mean! Awed by the wigwam on the hill. We sat in our scats—very still— To write our lists of future classes And slyly peck at elevator passes! Our faces were red for our blunders that day. As blithely descending an up” stairway. And finding the lunchroom was an art, Because lofty seniors had no heart. Sagamores, swimming pool.” teachers galore. Close-ups of big shots we’d heard of before. O. B. A., pasing bells, for F-I-R-E there arc four. 108, 305; we peered at each door. Finding classrooms at a harried pace. Oh, that day was a merry chase! Yet—we walked home from school a bit blase. Veterans—of one whole day!! ★ I hen there were those mornings, oh those morn- ings, when mother or the alarm clock announced as effectively as any bugle, You’ve got to get up! You vc got to gett up!” The same old refrain— season in and season out— (With apologies to Robert Louis Stevenson) In summer-time when I arise, The sun is shining in my eyes. In winter, quite the other way, When I awake, it’s not quite day . It’s not quite warm, no sun is bright. I dress for school by electric light, While half-finished dreams float through my head, And I look longingly at my bed. And docs it not seem hard, at best. When I would like so much to rest, I must awake to start aright A day that still resembles night? ★ No one who has ever tangled with schedule problems will ever forget Mr. White, our retired vice-principal. For every change we desired, every conflict of periods, every problem of every descrip- tion, teachers and pupils offered the same solution. SEE MR. WHITE” 'Why the hurry, what’s the fuss? Say, what’s cookin’ in all this rush? We know school’s out, but stop the stampede; Twenty-five miles is the limit for speed.” Thus we wonder as they all sprint by, Wccquahic’s students on the fly. Down the hall to the office sign, A fifty yard dash for a place in line! We catch these words as we watch the flight, Oh, today I just have to sec Mr. White.” You sec, the term has begun and schedules once more. Everyone has a problem they seek a solution for. And Mr. White is: The International Fixer,” The All-American Mixer,” The Eight A. M. to Sixer.” That’s why they say when the spot is tight. For best results, sec Mr. White.” The lines arc long, the lines arc wide. To see the man who is inside. And students sigh with attempts at glee, Now only thirty arc ahead of me.” But they arc willing to wait till supper. To chat with Wecquahic’s fixer-upper. And we know when our years arc fading away. And fond mem’ry recalls each carefree school day. That slogan will stick when other are past, Sec Mr. White,” that memory will last. ★ And finally, let’s take a glance ahead. We are imbued with less of the starry-eyed ideology of other classes, for we arc graduating into a world at war. Our path to glory and happiness is a wearier way, but we will overcome our difficulties and prove our mettle as we travel along LIFE’S ROADWAY” When searching for the flower, One may come upon the thorn. But the trials we arc given That are manfully borne, Are the ones that strengthen The soul and the heart. And make each ready To do his part. Though the feet be weary, And the heart be sore.

Page Thirty-nine dissertation On Oln Heition Shakespeare once said: What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet. I’ve often heard this line quoted and so have you, probably. However, I really came to understand its true significance only today. I was in a little town today; call it what you will and place it where you may. That’s not important; what happened to me there is important. Here, I discovered a feeling, a nationalistic feeling, for my school. It was quite by accident. Not that I was feeling very unfeeling at that moment, but I also had no thought whatever of my school (no of- fense meant). 1 was free—for the moment. But not for long. That’s a main fault of small towns: they’re too small. While walking nonchalantly up a street, I saw a general store and I went inside to see if I could get a pack of—envelopes. In the store, the nosey storekeeper asked me where I was from. Newark, I said proudly, joyfully, and magnificently in my deep, rich, and muddy tenor voice. He looked at me with a wistful expression and said, Oh! Downtrodden, I took my pack of—envelopes and turned to leave. The storekeeper said, New Jersey? Delirious with delight, I turned and cried, Yes! He looked up at me, and said, Oh! I turned away again, despondent and melancholy. The world was too much with me. I felt choked up inside. What school do you go to?” I turned around sorrowfully and sadly. I looked at him and mur- mured, Weequahic.” Who?” Still afflicted, I murmured again, Weequahic. He smiled at me. I didn’t ask the name of the floor wax your mother uses, son. All I’d like to know is what school you go to! I looked at him and said, Weequahic. He grinned this time, showing his very crooked and very green teeth. Don’t you feel well, boy?” I regarded him with apprehension and I thought, perhaps, I wasn’t clearly speaking. I literally shouted at him. Weequahic—that’s the name o1 my school. It’s an Indian name.” Oh!” he said,— real American name. Good!” He smiled, show- ing his pearly white and perfectly straight teeth. All was joy again. I spent an hour with him talking about our Indians and our school. He promised that he’d come to visit the school soon. It’s great to have a school with an odd name—you make so many friends that way. You remember what Shakespeare said, don’t you? Well, Weequahic isn’t a rose and it doesn’t smell sweet, but oh! what a name for a school!! It’s certainly all right with me!

Into future ; se m £ :V- £ 'ft-fe :;-rr-?S -. — -• RUrHCOHSW Prophecy ★ By the twist of a dial we can tune into our lives of twenty-five years ago. That was the year 1945— January 23, 1945 to be exact. That was the night we graduated and left Wcequahic High School, our home for the preceding four years. Since then, we have all gone our separate ways, being scattered throughout our city and our country, following our own pursuits. Not all of us have found that what wc are doing now is what we planned to do twenty-five years ago, but almost all of us have found happiness in life. The other day a group of us from that class of January, 1945, was summoned together by another of our former classmates, Frank Heilenday, now president of the United States. He called us to the nation’s capital on official business we were to carry out for him. When the group assembled, we found it to consist of our former schoolmates Daniel Swartz, a prominent politician; Charles H. Meyer, a suc- cessful financier; Judge Leonard Meranus; Professor Norman Dultz of the Harvard University faculty; Dr. Stanley Gelbond, research scientist; Shirley New- man of the United States Public Health Bureau; and Simona Chivian, the country’s outstanding woman novelist. Wc didn’t understand why such an ill-assorted group as we, should be gathered together until after we were ushered into the president’s study by his secretary, Ethel Golden, and seated before the great man himself. The years had been merciful to all of us, and we could find signs of the past youth in the faces of the men and women who sat beside the president. They were our old friends Horace Green- berg, now Attorney-general; Eugene Linker, Secre- tary of Commerce; and Bea Gurland, Secretary of the Treasury. It was then that the president explained his pur- pose in assembling us. Since the end of World War II, our country has developed the resources of one of its islands which shall have no name for the pres- ent. Our government has sent such experienced engineers as Ernest Rawitz and Richard Gordon to examine and report on the potentialities of this pos- session. They found it to have excellent possibilities and the island was soon opened to immigration from the States. The president then told us that he wanted us to visit this island and observe it from the standpoint of what wc each were experts in, education, public health, government and politics, legislation, cultural arts, economics, and science. We left his office then, and as we were descending the stairs, wc met two other old friends from Wce- quahic, Senators Joe Jcntis and Carl Baron, who had just left Victor Kemper, mayor of our own home town of Newark. A few days later found us all assembled at the airport restaurant, run by Roy Schnack and Gerald Greenfield. At the next table were seated Zclda Brody, the popular songstress; and Bea Wolitski, who has made a career of running a home and raising two children. The girls told us that they were waiting for Selma R. Blumc, London correspondent for the Associated Press, to arrive. While they were waiting, Arlene Geltman, Marcia Shuiman, Claire O’Brien, Rhona Wunderman, Elayne Stein, Renee Abramson, and Marilyn Shaw wandered into the room. They are all buyers who had come to Washington to at- tend a fashion show. At the show, they tell us, among the models will be Marian Kascn and Eleanor Lambcck, modeling gowns designed by Jane Harris, Muriel Hornstein, and Rhoda Feller. Just then, an airport official, Martin Axelrad, came up and informed us that our special plane was ready to take off. Wc were introduced to the pilot. Jack Soroka; the co-pilot, Alan Gale; and the stewardess, Myra Zucker. We were ready to take off when the vice-president of the airline company. Perry Fisch, came running up and asked us if wc would mind taking three passengers with us who were unable to get accomodations for any other flight that day. As soon as the multi-millionaire, Robert Goldman, and Page Forty-t ico his secretaries, Phyllis Weiss and Eileen Duffy, were installed in their scats, the plane took off. In less than four hours we had reached our destin- ation and were being met at the airport by many people. Our hotel had sent over two of its represen- tatives, Rose Beim and Gloria Halpcr, to help settle our affairs. They took us to a waiting car which was chauffercd by Ira Laufer, and we were on our way once more. At the hotel, we met the desk clerk who turned out to be none other than our old friend from Wce- quahic, Seymour Borkcr. We each signed the register and noticed among the other guests, I-'rank Braun, Morris Thomas, Bernard Dinnerman, Phyllis Kalter, Alvin Schat berg, Eunice Silverman, and Eugene Picker. We were told that they were here for a con- vention held by the Bigger and Better Business In- terests.” As we started towards the elevator, the door marked manager” opened, and out came Har- old Levitz, with the assistant manager, Harry Bass, in pursuit. They headed towards the switchboard where Ruth Rubin, Marie Mazzaro, and Ann Oberst were in charge, and there ensued an argument which we did not wait to witness. The next morning found our group prepared for the work we were about to undertake. Two tele- phone calls had come in for us. The first was from the office of the Governor-general of the island, Jer- ome Waldor. His secretary, Doris Brodsky, had called in his behalf to offer the services of that office for our work. She said that some people who were familiar with the subject each of us wanted, would be sent to see us that afternoon and to take us to see these various departments functioning. The other call was from the editor of the local newspaper, Sarino Costanzo, who wanted to send over a reporter, Ruth Schneider; and a photographer, Adrian Blumcn- fcld; to get an interview. The reporters were received, and left before the first of the representatives from the Governor-gen- eral’s office arrived. He introduced himself as George Blcznick, vice-president of a huge manufacturing concern here on the island. After staying a few minutes and making the acquaintance of everyone present, he left with our financial expert. The rest of us were ready to leave, and did so as soon as the other representatives came. We each went our indi- vidual way carrying out our commission, and did not again meet until late that afternoon. When we were together again, the judge began the narration of the day’s events. He had been taken to the Court of Justice to begin his observations. There he had met one of the leading lawyers of the day, Sanford Chernin. who was fighting a case in court that very afternoon. The judge, Marvin Zwill- man; the court stenographer, Ann Anapolsky; and the defendant, David Hersh; were all old friends from Wecquahic. Likewise for the jury, which consisted of honored citizens Leonard North, Charlotte Green- holtz, Stanley Cohen, Frank LaMotta, Edna Sasloc, Leah Schildhaus, Pearl Slatin, Albert Witkowsky, Enid Sackin, Herbert Dwortzan, Richard Cohen, and Burt Grossman. From there our observer and his guides, Ira Shimkowitz and Gloria Miller, visited the Hall of Records. There they met Pearl Shindle- man, Selma Eagle. Lois Rothholtz, Dorothy Brody, and Lore Frank, who were all working as clerks. Our public health official was the next to return, so she was the next to tell us of her observations. Her guide was Joan Brandmeyer, head nurse at the medical clinic. The clinic was the place the two ladies spent most of their time. They were taken on a tour of the hospital and met nurses Ethel Deutsch, Betty Bruns, Sunya Kornbluth, and Florence Waten- makcr. Walking down the corridor, they met Carolyn Krichman, Janet Blumcnkrantz, and Rochelle Grub- er, social service workers. Down in the hospital kit- chen were seen Janet Engel, head dietician; and Harriett Feig of the Bureau of Food Research. The guide then led the way up to the administration offices of the hospital. They entered the offices of Page Forty-three jf rophecy the head of the medical staff, James DeNicholas, but were told by his secretary, Marion Klinghoffer, that he had not come in that afternoon. They did sec, however, doctors Leonard Silidkcr, George Levine, Carey Trcvisan, Norman Reiss, and Gerald Dorman, besides pharmacist Richard Gartenberg. In the child- ren’s ward were found psychologists Lila Lieberman and Estelle Perlmutter. Next, we heard from our politician. He had been taken to see some of the leading men of the city. Among them were the sheriff, James Cohan; and Sheldon Schactcr, a prominent statesman who was running for Congress at the present time. It was then time to hear from our educator who had been shown through the university, that day, by the assistant superintendent of schools, Melvyn Schneider; and his secretary, Eileen Murdy. At the university they met Edward Green, Professor of Music, and then went on to visit the public schools. At one of the grammar schools, they saw kindergarten teachers Harisa Koch and Elaine Pinnas. Also, there were instructors Ardythe Silker, Shirley Segal, Mari- lyn Susskind, and recreation teacher, Evelynne Gott- fried. From there they went on to a local high school. In the office they were introduced to office clerks Doris Rowe, Leah Rapcl, Sylvia Mackorofsky, and Margaret Hendry. As they were touring through some of the classrooms there were seen art teachers Claire Becker, Charlotte Lowitz, and Harriet Macy. Found in the other classrooms were Zara Ratner, teacher of business subjects; Frances Kobre, physical training teacher; Norma Chiappinelli, music instruc- tor; Claire Boorstcin, English teacher; Marilyn Klcin- fcld and Florence Naspinsky, foreign language teach- ers. Leaving the building, they met Rita Bukarest, guidance instructor, speaking with parents Evelyn Feit, Rhoda Roscnfcld, Mildred Meyers, and Doris Schnur. We heard from the science department then, and their story of the afternoon. The guide was late in arriving and so they only had time to visit the gov- ernment research laboratory here on the island. There they were conducted around the laboratory by Naomi Wolfson, head of the research staff. They ran into familiar faces there, such as lab technicians Selma Shapiro, Selma Tcncnbaum, Evelyn Besher, and Doris Gcllcr. Also seen in the laboratory—hard at work, was Esther Rachlin, dental technician. Our financier then took the floor and told us of his day among stocks and bonds, and the people who handle them. He visited the stock exchange, guided by one of its members, Emanuel Sherman. As they entered, they were greeted by a din of clattering typewriters, and seated behind some of them were Eleanor Blyn, Tcssie Kasclman, Betty Roethlcr, Car- lysc Taylor, Helen Bacatsclos, Dorothy Stypinska, Lillian Gammer, and Vilma Crook. Having been in- formed by the private secretary to the president, Lillian Rogcl, that a board meeting w'as about to begin, they entered the board room. Seated around the table were Paul Tcvelow, Albert Hirsch, Harry Linder, Harry Bleznick, Eugene Stern, William Pro- kocimer, Alan Kohn, and Marvin Silverstein. There was a small group of secretaries present who were busily taking shorthand notes. They were found to be Frieda Abraham, Shirley Nathanson, June Saupe, Sue Palmicri, and Jean Brandmcyer. The two observ- ers stayed throughout the meeting. Our representative from the cultural side of life told us of the art exhibit she had viewed that after- noon. Works of Maria Scanniello, Greta Klein, Ruth Cohen, and Maria Fernandes, were all on exhibit. She also informed us that that evening we had our choice of attending a concert featuring the great piano virtuosos Seymour Bernstein and Frances Sachs, and vocalists Lila Minion, Nathan Weissman, and Claire Michaels, whom we all remembered from high school; or going to the theatre to see a new play hav- ing its premiere tonight. Though we wanted to sec our old friends again, it was decided that the theatre would be more enjoyable to all our tastes. Page Forty-four Thus our first day passed and the night found us enjoying a moment of leisure. First, we attended a banquet given by a women’s auxiliary. The president of the club, Roslyn Schwartz; the vice-president, Eleanor Zuckman; and the secretary, Doris Lewis; made us welcome. Among the other guests were Howard Gallup, the leading citizen of the community; John Seeley, George Sherman, Bernard Ross, and Martin Wasserman, successful businessmen; Betty Lee Braunstcin, a rcknown statistician; and Bernice Silverman, the stage and screen actress. We spent a few enjoyable hours there, but left in time to be seated at the theatre before the first curtain rose. While waiting for the play to begin, we glanced over the program and noted many familiar names, Zelda Zirkin, Marvin Fox, and Rose Rothspan, star- ring players; Milton Perlmuttcr, the producer; Sam Hasanovitz, scenic designer; choreography by Phyllis Feldman; and the musical score by Herbert Zucker- berg. The play was intriguing, and it was not until the second intermission that we noticed in the audience housewives Estelle Knobelman, Esther Boris- low, Esther Schwager, Faye Greenberg, Adcle Tar- nofsky, Lorraine Goldstein, Roslyn Schneider, Joan Steinberg, Claire Brenner, and Leona Blumenfcld. Also seen were accountants Sidney Rcingold, Charles Sofman, Jack Berkowitz, and Robert Brunner; and businessmen Rubin Bclinkoff, Rubin Krasncr, and Ira Grossman. When we left the theatre it was quite late, and since we all had work to do tomorrow, home was where we headed. The driver, surprisingly enough, wasn’t of the usual loquacious temperament and rather favored the company of the radio than our after-theatre chatter. We had tuned in upon a transcription of a variety program given earlier that evening. We recognized the master of ceremony as Leonard Moshinsky, the popular comedian. His guests were Arlene Hammer, the most popular of the radio actresses; and Beverly Kricgman, the famous fashion illustrator. Television allows us to sec behind the scenes and recognize radio technicians Eugene Karlin, Monroe Meiseles, and Charles Witzburg. Yes, radio and television have advanced amazingly in the last twenty-five years. But alas! That one curse has jPropli ropnecu never been able to be shaken off—the sponsor. This broadcast was presented by a shoe manufacturer. Scymoure Shapiro. He is always found sitting by the microphone with two secretaries, Olga Omclanchuk and Harriet Kitchenoff. Two other amanuenses, Ruth Schatten and Eleanor Rein, are on hand to carry out the great man’s wishes, but neither one of them dare inform him that it is not to hear of his product that people tune in on their radios each week. Well, the cab finally reached our hotel. We took leave � { the driver and left hm to the solitary enjoy- ment of his radio. In the lobby, the only people around were the night clerk, Bernard Dinsfricnd; the night switchboard operators, Sarah Kaplowitz and June Phipps; and the manager’s secretary. Pearl Pinnas. While the clerk was getting our keys a group of late stragglers came in. They were working girls Jean Feldman, Rcba Rosenhaft, Grace Schimpf, Doris Samuclson. and Flora Madeira. Our first day was ended; successfully for each of us. We had begun our job as we faithfully pledged we would, but we had accomplished even more than that. Old friends whom we thought never to see again crossed our paths. That graduation night of January, 1945 had been the last time we had all been together, and since then had traveled the road of life alone except for two or three or four who had always re- mained together. The only tangible evidence of those days, long forgotten, was a yearbook with an anti- quated picture and an autograph or two, but in the few days we had recaptured the life back into these mementos. When we return to our individual homes, most likely we will dig out that old yearbook and discover for ourselves the ruses that fate has successfully played on each of us during a period of twenty-five years.

Bi.uMt Simona Chivian Rita Bukarest Leonard Mi ranus Pnfie Forty-six e oom 21 ystery of K Qood evening, my unassuming listeners. This is Joe Jentis, your host, bringing you The Mystery of Room 217, or What happened to tin’ Lonely Little Fellow in the First S ‘at, Seventh Row?” We have persuaded Miss Marger’s master minds. Frank Braun and Martin Axclrad, to help us find the mental maniac who is responsible for the missing member mentioned. Present also is the notable Ira Shimkowitz along with his personal secretary, Doris Brodsky, who will record everything that is said. And now, may I proceed with the mystery? Oh, incidentally, folks, if you should be deeply engrossed in studying your favorite obituary column, and if you should feel a cold hand approach your shoulder and remain there for awhile, don’t hide in the cellar. That’s my hiding place! What? Oh, it’s only Ethel Golden asking for money for war stamps. I’m sorry—you can come out from under your skin now. It all happened on the nineteenth of January,” begins Eleanor Blvn. It was a dark, dreary morning when Sarah Kaplowitz, Tessie Kaselman, and 1 entered the long, winding halls that led to the darkened room, numbered 217 in large white letters on an ebony black background. Unsuspecting, we momentarily placed our books next to the very scat which would remain vacant forever after. It was then that the rest of the class gradually filed in, each one glancing at the vacant seat,” continued Eileen Murdy. The hands of the clock were approaching 8:29 when Sidney Reingold, Reba Rosenhoft, and Leah Rapel rushed in at the last moment— but the first scat, seventh row still remained without an occupant. All eyes were focussed upon the door, waiting in desperation, but the missing member did not appear as the clock tolled 8:30 A. M.” Albert Hirsch took the story from there: This had been going on ever since the first day we entered this room.” June Saupe and Marcia Shulman nodded in agreement. But we could not bear the suspense any longer, so right then and there, we asked a committee, consisting of Harold Levitz, Freida Abraham, and Evelyn Besher to go down to the office to request that the bells be held and all work be halted until we were able to discover just who was responsible for this. At this point, Phyllis Weiss seated herself beside Esther Schwager and Shirley Nathanson who were listening intently. Sarino Costanzo took matters into his own hands when he appointed himself ’District Attorney’,” June Phipps added. He began by questioning Esther Borislow who said that she had noticed that the scat had always been vacant, but she had nothing else to supplement. Charlotte Grecnholtz spoke for Lore Frank and Claire Becker, saying that they were sorry they knew nothing more. Marie Mazzaro added that they had seen a stranger enter the room frequently but he had always disappeared before the 8:30 bell. Marion Klinghoffer made a note of the last statement in her best shorthand. The group, unable to solve the mystery among themselves, finally turned to Miss Marger for aid. However, before she could say anything, the door opened and the janitor entered with a new bulb for the light fixture. In desperation, Olga Omclanchuk and Lillian Rogol approached him and asked if he knew who was responsible for the missing fellow in the first scat, seventh row. Do you mean that poor, lonely fellow—” Yes, yes,” the class interrupted eagerly. The janitor smiled, and the class had the feeling that he really knew. Well, I hate to disillusion you . . . . ” The students’ hearts sank. . . . . but there never was a first scat, seventh row! The students sank down in slumber beside their hearts. Well, folks, this is your host again. What’s that, you didn’t care for my little mystery? Well, then, do drop in and I’ll see what I can do about having a first seat, seventh row built just for you. Of course, due to the lack of room, we’ll have to build it outside the window, but I’m sure you won’t mind. Just think of all the fresh air around you—and in the winter time, think of all the fun you can have making snowballs and throwing them at your favorite teacher as you slowly freeze to death. Oh, and by the way, the recommended book for this term is the Legend of January 1945” written by the students of that class. (Sqec-ceJt!) So long, folks. Bi atrici. Wolitski CHARI.OTTf. CiRII NHOLTZ Jime in 219 Qood afternoon, folks. This is your favorite announcer, Horace Greenberg. Before we begin today’s story, I have a message that is vital to your health and happiness. Do you suffer from corns? (Zara Ratner and Myra Zuckcr do). Do your feet ache at every step you take? If so, why not try Dr. Leonard Silidkcr’s Slap It On—Tear It Off” Corn Plasters? We quote from a letter just received from Miss Gloria Halpcr of Peoria, 111.— Until a few months ago, I was a very unhappy young girl. That is, until a friend of mine. Phyllis Feldman, told me how men suddenly swooned at her feet because she used your wonderful product. Since I have used your corn plasters, the most wonder- ful thing has happened to me. The man, (Stanley Cohn) whom I have dreamt about for fifteen years has finally come along.” This is Horace again, folks. Why not take this excellent advice and try our product Slap It On—Tear It Off” Corn Plasters? And now—for our story. If you will recall, we left our fair heroine, Elaine Pinnas, locked in the basement of Herbert Dwortzan’s Gett Rooked Inn.” Our hero. Detective Dick Gordon, who has fallen into the clutches of that slinky siren. Rose Rothspan, is locked in another part of the basement. He managed to get a message to his ever faithful secretary. Betty Roethler. and she, in turn, told Chief of Police Harry Bass that Dick was captured by Doris Butch” Gcllcr’s gang of Amazons. (Maria Scanniello, Flora Madeira, and Favc Greenberg). Meanwhile, our heroine’s mother, Estelle Perlmutter, is gossiping with her neighbors, Grace Schimpf and Lois Rothholtz. Their topic of conversation is the horrible noises coming from the house next door. (It’s just Lila Minion practicing her vocal lessons.) Just then, their most informative neighbor, Harriet Feig, comes along to tell them about her uncle’s wife, Harriet Kitchcnoff, whose sister-in-law’s cousin, Esther Rachlin, was the bridesmaid at the wedding of her fourth cousin, six times removed. Seymore Borker, who had married a girl he had known for only twelve years—Greta Klein. Back to the Inn, now. Well, well. —Doris Samuelson is still sitting in front of the mirror powdering her nose, while Ruth Cohen is swooning over the lilting tunes of Victor Kemper and his Weequahic Wildcats. Nearby in a telephone booth, that super-sleuth detective, Naomi Wolfson, is speaking to her colleague, Eleanor Zuckman, about the rescue of our fair heroine. Butch’s sneaky spy, Evelyn Feit, posing as a waitress, is listening to their conversation. And now, for today’s chapter— Two shots and a scream arc heard. Who fired the shots? Who screamed? (Was it Mrs. Isserman, after reading this?) Will our hero save the lovely heroine? Tune in tomorrow for another thrilling installment. Remember our exciting $100 War Bond contest, folks, for the best jingle about our Slap It On—Tear It Off” Corn Plasters. The contest is ab-so-lute-ly free; all you need is 650 corn cartons plus 50 cents, to cover cost of mailing. The contest ends January 23, 1945, so hurry, don’t delay, get your jingle in today.

Milkmen and Weequahic Students, before we bring you our show I have a few words about our product.—Are you hungry? Well, look in a mirror and eat your heart out—or, better yet, try Daddy Dinnerman’s Dandy and Divine Hot Dogs,” the only puppy with the zestful curves. Our product is endorsed by that noted epicurean, Perry Fisch, who says, I was once a 97 pound weakling, but after eating Daddy Dinnerman’s Dandy and Divine Hot Dogs,” I am now a 96 pound physical specimen, admired by all. Herewith, is a quotation from Jean Branmeyer, who says, Before eating Daddy Dinnerman’s Dandy and Divine Hot Dogs” I suffered from mal- nutrition,—but now 1 rather enjoy it.” And now on with our program, and Bob Brunner. Will our attendant, John Seeley, kindly drag over our first contestant? Crawl right over here young man, and divulge your name.” Uhhhh! Charlie Sofman.” All right, Charlie, until I hit you with this baseball bat, give all the dirt you can about the Cats of Homeroom 231.” Uhhhh! Well, there’s Jean Feldman, who manages to keep the class in hysterics. Then there arc Ethel Dcutsch and Sue Palmicri, the two songbirds; Ann Anapolsky, who drives me ga-ga with her naive smile and beautiful sweaters; Lee Blumenfeld, Adele Tarnofsky, and Rhona Wunderman, all three writing letters most anytime of the day to their certain someone; Margaret Hendry, Edna Sasloe, Carlyse Taylor, Dorothy Brody, and Sylvia Mackrofsky, who counteract the levity of the homeroom period by their incessant studying; Ruth Schatten, who has the audacity to cpicurize in the library; Frances Kobrc, who can out-talk anyone--------uuuuh!— I knew I shouldn’t have hit him so hard with this bat! Oh well, next contestant please. And what is your name? Mess, excuse me, I mean. Miss? Hmmmmm. I like you too, my name is Rochelle Gruber.” Miss Gruber, since we asked Mr. Sofman about the girls of 231, we’ll ask you about the boys.” Hmmmmm, well, there’s Frankie LaMotta, who’s my idea of a perfect Romeo; Seymore Shapiro, our class politician; Manny Sherman, the man with the S o’clock shadow and Adonis profile; Morris Thomas, who finally made the Flonor Roll in his last term at Wcequahic; Richard Cohen, who owns more fountain pens than Evcrsharp; Harry Linder, who mourns the absence of Mickey Dunst and Jackie Nusbaum, now serving in the armed forces; Charlie Meyer, who knows everyone and everything about the school; Bernie Dinsfricnd, that great hunk of man who draws like a professional; oh, and 1 mustn’t forget Jack Bernstein and Aaron Goldstein, who proved to be a great loss to the homeroom when they enlisted to serve our country.” Just like a woman, you’d probably go on talking for another hour, but right here and now our time is up, as I hear Doc” Silbcr cracking his whip, I gather the warning- bell has rung. So—goodbye Milkmen and Wecquahic Students—and remember—you can be like Perry Fisch—cat Daddy Dinnerman’s Dandy and Divine Hot Dogs.” Bernard Dinsfrii no Jean Feldman Charles Sofman Page Forty-nine WJhat tLe ljt)rapt i oarcl c-Lej-t op 305 is Ira Laufcr of room 305 introducing tonight’s show, What the Draft Board 1 r Left °f Home Room 305.” The cast is assembled before the microphone to V— bring this stirring drama to you, and now the curtain is slowly rising. We see Miss Odell, busily watering the plants which adorn the biology room. With her is Bca Gurland, who awaits the entrance of her classmates. There is only one minute left before the final bell rings and the question which foreshadows all else in the minds of teacher and pupil is, will the other thirty pupils make it to their seats before the bell, or will they find themselves in the office as per usual? Ah, but wait! Is this a face which appears at yonder portal, or is it merely wishful thinking? It is, boys and girls—a face! It is that of smiling Harriet Macy. In her hand are large posters of all sorts and she smilingly inquires, How do you like these posters I drew for the O.B.A., and the floorplans for the prom? Oh, here are some people I can ask!” She espies the two gentlemen walking through the door, but they are pre- pared, having heard her question. Harry Blcznick speaks. Ask me. I’m the one with the character. My brother, George Blesnick, is the character,” whereupon George steps up to Harry with an angry look and a fist full of brass knuckles. It looks as if a fight is going to develop from this. Yes, they have almost come to blows when the football heroes Herb Zuckerberg, Marvin Silverstcin, and Nathan Weissman separate the pair. The bell, it’s rung! Before the last dying peal has echoed, there is an ominous roar in the direction of the door,—and the curtain falls upon the first act of our little drama. Before we continue, however, here is Claire Michaels to sing a message from our sponsor. (To the tunc of the Pcpsi-Cola jingle) Odell’s toilet soap sweeps the bunch. It’s so good, you can eat it for lunch. Use Odell’s toilet soap on your face. Instead of one bar, why not take a ease. Scrub, scrub, scrub. Claire, as you know, is one of the stars of this term’s operetta, but she doesn’t mind doing things like this for us on her day off. And now for Act II in our drama of What tlx Draft Board Left of Home Room 305.” We left our cast rushing for their scats before Gloria Miller could count them absent. As we see them now, Adrian Blumenfcld had gotten his zoot suit quiet in time for Rubin Bclinkoff to read the Bible, the ceremony which officially signifies the begin- ning of a new day. This done, Elaync Stein begins her daily collection of war stamps money with the plea that 305 is at the bottom of the list, and can’t we please just advance one place. Alan Kohn, Eugene Karlin, and Jack Soroka arc noisily discussing those many affairs that men (?) always discuss when they get together. The gals, Betty Bruns, Leah Schild- haus (usually very quiet), Marilyn Shaw, and Florence Watenmaker arc chattering away about something that sounds like Frankie or Andy,” and Jane Harris is going crazy asking, What’s your favorite saying? Where can you always be seen? What do you want to be?” It is at this point that Melvin Schneider is discovered by Miss O’dell somewhere across the room, and he quickly scurries back to his own scat. But the damage has been done, and the whole class turns into a furor. Burt and Ira Grossman try to make themselves the center of attention, while Doris Schnur and Norma Chiappinclli compare notes. Lorraine Goldstein is shouting across the room to Eunice Silverman, Leonard North is watching the airplanes circle around in the sky, and Arlene Geltman and Shadow Fox arc discussing some important matter concerning graduation. We had intended another act, but the behavior of the cast makes it impossible to continue, so we will have to say good-bye. Before we go, however, we want to wish our servicemen wherever they arc, good luck. They arc Arthur Steinberger, Malvin Stein, Kenneth Lcsnick, and Carl Baron of the U. S. Navy, and Norman Weckstcin and David Fleishman of the U. S. Army. This is your host again saying good-bye to you, from Home Room 305. Bfa Gurland jANr Harris Rage Fifty yy Uh-uh, don’t touch that dial. Hold it! That’s right. Stay around here, and you’re in for a cryin’ good time. You're at Station W. H. S., 306 on your dial. Today we bring you the Good Will Hour’’ with Marv Zwillman acting as Mr. Agony, the man to bring your troubles to. But first a message from our sponsor. Do you feel limp and listless? Do you feel run down? If you do, try Schechter’s Little Ironed Yeast Tablets.” Twenty- four tablets to an ounce of water. You won’t feel limp, you won’t feel listless, you won’t feel weak or run down. You won’t feel anything—you’re dead! Now back to our program. The first guest 1 sec is Gene Stern asking, Mr. Agony, this is my problem. Can I stay in High School as long as Roosevelt stayed in the White House?” Closely following is Charlie Witzburg with this lament, How can I pass an algebra test?” Of course, Carey Trevisan’s inevitable worry is over Chemistry. To pass or not to pass, that is my question.” Poor little Frannie Sachs woefully asks Mr. Agony, When will I learn how to please Mrs. Archer? Roslyn Schneider interrupts here, complaining, How do 1 get people to spell my name my way?” How to put more hours in a day is Shirl Segal’s problem. Such a busy little lady! Ardythc Silker is in a turmoil. Should she choose Cliff or Pete? Pearl Slatin has real troubles. Mr. Agony, when will I learn not to be so gullible?” she asks. Up comes Ann Oberst asking sweetly. Please sir, how can I grow?” and Renee Abramson is following that one up with a Me too!” Pearl Pinnas wants to know, Isn’t there some way I can keep from being late to homeroom and still do all my dressing at home?” Mr. Agony will have real difficulty in answering Betty Lee Braunstein’s perplexing question, Aren’t there any more clubs to join so that I can busy myself?” Poor Betty is bored. How to find time to answer her mail is popular Maria Fernandes’ problem. So many servicemen in her life. Bashful Rhoda Feller asks trouble-laden Mr. Agony how she can learn to keep up a conversation, and Janet Engel’s big problem is Is there a glee club rehearsal today?” Femme troubles arc on for Norman Dultz. It seems he can’t handle the girls of Weequahic. Here comes Doris Lewis and Monroe Mcisclcs who want to know how any- one can possibly expect them to make the Legend deadline. In a quandary is Muriel Hornstein, Oh, what to be! says she. Hers is a common topic of discussion around here. Next person approaching is Zel Brody. Her problem is how to keep her dates from interfering with her homework and vice-versa. There’s Bob Goldman trying to learn the technique of handing in an excuse on time. A timely problem is the one Estelle Knoblcman, Eleanore Lambeck, and Helen Bacatselos arc faced with, What can we do about the man shortage?” Can you help them, Mr. Agony? Troubles must run in pairs because there are Dorothy Stypinska and Joanie Brand- meyer with, I just washed my hair and I can’t do a thing with it.” Dave Hcrsh is next with serious troubles about Lollypop.” Could Lollypop” be a girl? Could be! George Levine is very distraught. Where on earth will he get his Dentync chewing gum? Two pretty maidens are now running up for Mr. Agony’s wise (?) counsel. They arc Eleanor Rein with, How can I type faster?,” and Lillian Gammer with, How can I rush the mail?” Sam Hasanovitz has trouble getting his homework in on time, if at all. Norm Reiss’s problem is about music— How can I compress a bass fiddle to the size of a violin? Ernie Rawitz comes every week to Mr. Agony asking, How can I get the scholarship I want?” (And deserve, we know.) Mr. Agony really has the biggest problem of all. It is, How am I going to answer tljcsc questions ftut before me?” Zelda Brody P c Fifty-one 3086 ★ At the sound of the bell, it will be exactly 8:30 A. M. — time to listen to Van Beyer’s original Home- room Meeting of the Air. Today’s program is brought to you under the auspices of Room 308. The vital and pressing question under discussion today shall be,— How many stringi should the tas- sels on the graduation caps have} And now we bring you our well-known and dis- tinguished moderator, Frank Heilenday, who will introduce the speakers from both houses of Council, on this grave problem. The first opinion to be expressed will be that of the honorable Senator Milton Perlmuttcr from Bull” Run. Harumpf . . . My friends, I speak not only for myself, but also for my colleagues, Albert Witkow- sky, William Prokocimer, and Alan Gale. We be- lieve that it is extremely important that we have 75 strings on the tassel, all of which must be the same length.” Mr. Speaker, 1 object. There arc too many strings attached!” shouts a voice from one of the cheaper seats in the rear. The voice belongs to none other than Sheldon Schachter. Please save your questions until our speakers are finished,” interrupts the moderator. And now we will hear the viewpoint from the feminine side. The representative, Rhoda Rosenfeld, from the Com- mittee for Conservation of Strings on Tassels, will speak now.” Gentlemen (must I include women?): The attempts of my committee, comprised of Flor- ence Naspinsky, Beverly Kriegman, Marilyn Klein- fcld, Mildred Meyers, and Vilma Crook, are known to all. We are campaigning for a complete reduction of the number of strings to be used on tassels. We have received indignant letters from Harisa Koch, Bernard Ross, Marilyn Susskind, and Eileen Duffy, protesting against the limitation which we support. In answer to them, I would like to say just one thing, 'String is needed for more essential affairs’.” Our next speaker. Representative Eugene Linker, prominent member of the Empire House, will now voice his opinion.” Well, uh.......... Martin Wasscrman cries out, That’s enough out of him—he doesn’t know anything, anyway.” Our moderator patiently calls for order. Ahem, now that we have heard from Mr. Linker, we will have our final speaker. Senator Stanley Gelbond, from Slingng Hash, T. S.” After discussing this timely question with the man on the street, namely: Claire Boorstein, stenogra- pher; Marion Kasen, model; Ruben Krassner, artist; Alvin Schatzberg, lawyer; and Sunya Kornbluth, nurse; I am convinced that Mr. Average Citizen wants a 50-string tassel. I agree wholeheartedly with this idea. However, these 50-string tassels should be arranged as follows: one long, one short; two long, two short; three long, three short, etc., etc.!! This unique pattern will produce a more artistic effect.” There seems to be quite a bit of confusion in the audience. Claire Brenner, Charlotte Lowitz, and Shirley Newman can’t come to an agreement as to which speaker should be supported. Eugene Picker and James Cohan have come to blows, and have been forcibly removed from the meeting. This noisy din continues until the already exhausted moderator finally restores order. We are now ready for any opinion which the audience may have to offer,” says Frank. Mr. Chairman,” says Joan Steinberg, I don’t see why we need tassels at all! They only get in our way.” Her best friend, Phyllis Kalter, finally disagrees with Joan, and replies with a quick answer. What is a graduation without a tassel?” At this point, Gerald Dorman jumps up and states eloquently, But seriously, . . . However, Mr. Dorman was unable to complete his speech, because of two loud simultaneous yawns which came from the mouths of George Sherman and Gerald Greenfield. Since our time is up, this meeting will have to come to an end. We are indeed sorry—the moment- ous decision on the question, How many strings s jould the tassels on the graduation caps have? , cannot be revealed until graduation day, January 23, 1945!

Who lifted Freedom’s holy light. To carry them forward to the fight, We raise our voices in hopeful prayer That God will protect you everywhere. You are the men, the staunch standing men Who fought on the battle-line, You are the men, the stout hearted men, Who fought for a dream so divine. A dream of a home with children at play, A refuge, a haven at the end of day. A dream of a fireplace burning bright, Casting a peaceful glow of light. But there you lie, ’Neath a blanket of sky. And when wars are over, there’ll come a day. When free men may lift their heads and say, You cannot die, you men of steel, Who will not be crushed by a conqueror’s heel, Whose pleading voices from a battlefield cried, 'Our lives are ended, for a cause we died.’ Yes, your lives are ended, but the cause remains, You have not suffered death in vain.” You men in the earth, and under the sea, We hear your voices, we accept your plea. So for the ones you left, we vow We will rebuild the world somehow, And then from the Fields of Heaven, you’ll see A universe of peace and liberty. And the bells of freedom will ring through the sky And all men will know that you cannot die. James Cohan Page Fifty-eight J Sat St Si UJindou, ★ I sat at a window the other afternoon and realized, 1 think for the first time, what men die for on a bloody battlefield far from home. I sat in the window and listened to the sounds around me, the little everyday sounds that I hear all the time and all at once I realized their significance. I watched a miniature play being presented. I saw a group of little girls singing in high sweet voices while at play. 1 saw a neighbor return from work to a wife waiting at the door. I heard the hum of voices in the apartment down- stairs, and now and then a car rumbled by. I saw a young girl returning from a job with a secret smile upon her face, and saw a young girl walk sedately past. No one would know to look at her that her sweetheart would never return from— over there.” I heard the distant roar of a bomber growing louder, and louder, and still louder. Yet, above the roar I heard the children’s song raised. And slowly the plane flew away, and I could hear it no more, and the children sang on. I saw a paper boy on his rounds. I saw a little boy hurrying homeward. I saw lights go on in houses up and down the street, turning them into homes. I saw the fall-colored trees and a serene sky above with a lone bird slowly wheeling and dipping. All was growing quiet except for a passing cat every so often. Yes, I sat in a window, and I saw what every man thinks about— over there.” I saw—Home. I saw—America. Zclda Brody Jlie Soldi ier How oft’ I see him lying On some strange, foreign shore. Prostrate among the dying— Perhaps he lives no more. He should not suffer so, This boy untried and young; He’s never known achievement’s glow. His story’s yet unsung. He’s never known his mental power; He hasn’t had the time. He’s never grown to manhood’s flower; He’s just begun the climb. He must not die! He must not fall! 1 pray this nightmare war Will quickly cease and bring me peace; Let him come home once more! Naomi Wolfson Pane Fifty-nine ‘Vke CLiroom ELs ” Tick, tock, tick, tock. Our work not done. The weary minutes pass. Period’s just begun Tick, tock, tick, tock. And time will wait for no one. Will I be late to class? We freeze and sweat, and you can bet We hope she docs not go on. Ding, dong, ding, dong. The times docs pass; no end to class. The final bell has rung. We tire of keeping our feet crossed. Sing, song, sing, song, The question is, When do we pass?” My talc has thus begun. We’ll make it, or we’ll be lost. Five seconds to go— Assignments made while students prayed Oh! Time goes slow! Not to get a hard one. Why hasn’t that darn bell rung? Senior grade, and teacher bade Fourth scat, third row—oh That all our homework be done. There I go!! Now I really am sunk! Then starts the clock to tick and tock An F” it is; I’m in a diz. And time crawls on, but slowly. At last she’s found my secret! We all arc tense; we’re in suspense My brain does fizz; the moral is. As teacher marks us lowly. Do homework, it’s your best bet. Beatrice Voiitoi 5acincj the Jeit Did you ever have the feeling But soon the worst is over. As you wandered to a test The papers arc all in That the world was soon to end. And then you start to worry, That you couldn’t do your best? The other it should have been. Did you ever know what it’s like Then next you start discussing To clear your desks of all but pens Your misery with your neighbor, And the paper’s passed to you That sure was hard work. And you’ve got no aid from friends? Didn’t they ever hear of child labor?” Did you ever feel like that You turn and toss the whole night through As the teacher asks the question And become a nervous wreck And you thought you knew the answer But what you probably didn’t know But you stop in hestitation? Is that what you had was correct. The morning dawns another new day In which to begin again. Yes, you’ve passed the test, you know it now, And your eyes are bright as you whisper—Amen. Selma R. Blume Page Sixty ColLye Crazy ★ Getting into college requires much sweat of the brow and ache of the fingers. Innumerable letters must be written, and when catalogues and applica- tions finally do appear, they arc found to be written on a level suitable only to those who already have a college education. College catalogues are a dangerous weapon in the hands of a novice. They can be used to produce acute heart failure, followed by acute elevation of spirits. The first malady is produced by glancing over a paragraph in order to escape the wordy phrases. The impression thus received is that stiff entrance exam- inations are required, or that there are no rooms for freshmen because of large service units, or any one of a number of disconcerting revelations. Upon re- reading the paragraph a few times, struggling through the abundant verbiage and receiving aid from the dictionary, these impressions can be reversed, lifting the spirits to the skies—until the next letdown. To the uninitiated, college application blanks are no headache at all. They arc merely statements of name, birthdatc, and other simple facts, so they think. However, these applications arc. in reality, abbreviated life histories, with all sins and errors included. Some of the questions seem pointless, such as this gem: What was the subject you liked least? Why?” Designating the subject is easy, but how can you tell a college the reason you disliked a course was because the teacher was disagreeable, or there was too much homework? Then there are the con- fession-type questions: How much homework did you do daily during your last year in high school? Twenty minutes definitely will not do for this ques- tion, so a slight misrepresentation is necessary. Eventually all the small points are disposed of, but there remain two other things, the photograph and the blank page reserved for a life story. Most photo- graphs for college applications seem to make the student look exactly the opposite of what he would like. The mouth droops open; the eyes look dull; in fact, the face seems completely void of expression and intelligence. As for the life story, many pencils have been chewed to splinters in the writing of it. The problem of constructing something which reflects four years of English training plus a reasonable amount of intelligence seems harder now than it ever did in writing an ordinary composition for homework. Finally the applications are completed and mailed out. Then comes the long waiting period, during which a deep melancholy and despondency appears in the applicant. He is sure he will never be accepted in any college for one or more of the following reasons: 1. His application was lost in the mail. 2. The high school mixed his school record with some- one elses, and the marks attributed to him arc so poor that the college will not even deign to reply. 3. Some- one gave him a terrible reference. And so it goes until that happy day when a long white envelope appears in the mailbox and the stud- ent’s spirits soar as soon as he reads, Dear Sir, We arc happy to inform you . . . . ” Naomi Woli son rarian Prologut I borrowed a book long ago in school And later found I had acted the fool. For something happened more horrid than fate— I had returned the volume one day late. Oh, why didn’t I pay the pennies then Instead of falling into that vicious den? But instead of my card I got a note, Give us two cents.” That was just what she wrote. Came graduation, I stepped upon the stage. But 1 came down in a spell of rage, I reached for a diploma but got a letter, Pay your two pennies, you senior debtor.” These arc my sorrows .... I achieved an award for playing ball But 1 never even saw that award at all. All I received was a little notice Pay your fine.” And that, my friends, is how it is. And when I was wearied and off to bed I saw only two coins with Honest Abe’s head. Epilogue So I died and went to Heaven, But St. Peter stopped me at the gate Saying: 1 can’t allow you in For you returned the book one day late.” Ira Laufkr During schooldays I labored awfully hard Hoping to find A’s adorning my card; 1‘nfce Sixty-one Jhe dle enJt ranuaru cji'toria I boa rcl Selma R.

It made me think of youth, when I was hopeful and gay. When I was young and life’s course before me lay. I hardly dared to touch the yellowed pages For fear of sights I should not like to sec: I knew that time had passed by many stages And bore along the burdens of fleeting ages. They looked at me with eyes that stared. With eyes that smiled with visions of hope. With eyes that never dreamt of being ensnared By age. Age then had not cared! Only now as I close the pages of the Legend 1 realize that transient time must travel. That the fable of eternity was all imagined By youth who never once foresaw the end. Selma R. Blume UL CLi Of 1945 We’ve studied four years at Weequahic High And kept that spirit of do or die. The seas were rough, the tempests blew, But our ship of fate has weathered through. We’ve had our fun; we’ve had our woe. And now we find it time to go. Four long years we’ve studied with zest; To ready ourselves for the last big test. We’ve laughed and loved and worked with glee; Success is our motto where’er we shall be. Each member of ’45 has one certain aim— He’ll reach that goal! Good luck and fame!

Likewise, the year book today has a richer meaning than ever before: it is engraved with memories of friends and classmates who will be setting forth to all the fronts. You rightfully expect a year book that will hold a proud place in the annals of your school, and for these reasons we dedicate our trained skills, our modern plant, and our experienced services to the fulfillment of your most discriminat- __________ing requirements. Page Eighty-four w — — WEEQUAHIC HIGH JUNE 1945 SCHOOL ★ In our last year at Weequahic we witnessed the passing of one of the truly great men in our country's history. The chaos of war has made death an every- day occurrence; still, each of us could not help feeling a deep sense of grief and personal loss at the death of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Few of us can remember any other man at the head of our great nation. As we go forward to take part in that society for which he lived, let us ever strive for the realization of the ideals he fought for—ideals, the complete realiza- tion of which, he never doubted. Page Six ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ £r ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ★ The Class of June 1945 dedicates its Legend to the boys in service—to these boys who have left behind the Spanish, the study hall, and Syd's, for the guns, the mortars, and the honors of the present. The present which brings us to realize that all too many of these boys will not be with us for graduation. But then there is the future. Behind that dark horizon lies all the beautiful hope of what will come. With our boys paying for it, some with the last full measure of devotion, it will be a future well worth waiting for and one well worth preserving. May God bless them all. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ASSISTANTS TO THE PRINCIPAL Robert M. Coleman TO MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF JUNE, 1945 ★ When members of this fine class attain their goals as City Commissioners —members of the Board of Education—noted writers—teachers—actors—band leaders—artists—medical men—business executives, or leaders in other callings; and as happy fathers and mothers and faithful citizens. I hope they'll look back with pleasure to their days in Weequahic High School. The best of good fortune to all of you! r Max J.

Page Forty-throe In Our Time ★ December 7, 1941, with its undying echoes and reverberations of exploding bombs, zoom- ing planes, moaning of wounded, and the other audible heralds of war. found us, the June 1945 class of Weequahic High, just embarking on our high school careers. Three months previous we had entered the Annex as a group of literal freshmen with brave hearts, high hopes, and hidden fears. Now, after our period of indoctrination, we were well at home at the Annex. By that fateful day, the school term had progressed through the second cycle. Our first representatives to the O. B. A., Herby Choice and Evy Jacobs, had already attended a few meetings at the main building and returned with glowing accounts of activ- ities which we would be part of the following year. The initial issue of the Annex News had made its appearance, and how proud we were of our first school paper. These activities were not curtailed by the war, but many changes were effected in our daily lives at school. Preparations for efficient air raid drills were begun at the time that the Philippines, Wake, and other Pacific islands were being bombed unrelentlessly. Wake Island fell to the Japs, on December 23, as we began our first war- time Christmas vacation. Upon return to school, we faced our first high school exams and found them not half as difficult as anticipated. The spring term at the Annex is remembered for two main events: the Annex Music Review under direction of Mr. Holzman, and the Saga- more Picnic at South Mountain Reservation in June, sponsored by Mr. Ranucci. Our thoughts that spring turned not only to love—if they did that—but also to the events of war. Even if in love, who could ignore the re-echo of blasting bombs, as they fell this time in revenge cn Tokyo itself—that daring feat accomplished by General Doolittle's flyers from the carrier Hornet? Who could ignore the announcement of the fall of Singapore, Bataan, Corregidor? Who would willfully wish to ignore, or forget, the great naval victories of the Coral Sea and Midway? Yes, our thoughts turned to many things that spring of '42. but as the term neared its close, there was one thought uppermost in our minds —next fall we would be sophisticated sophs at the main building. All of us still remember Mr. Herzberg's welcoming address at our first assembly, which officially initiated us into Weequahic High School. It did not take us long to get in the groove, to phrase it collo- quially. The girls entered into the styles with their slacks; the boys joined the crowd at Syd's; and we all turned out in full force at the fooball games. Remember those crowded number 6 buses after the game? There is no doubt that Weequahic was a high school at war. Additional courses in aeronautics, radio communications, and first aid; inauguration of the Victory Corps; collec- tion of newspapers, tin foil, and tooth paste tubes; 90% participation in purchase of War Bonds and Stamps earning the Minuterr.an Flag for the school; and the arduous treks by the band, twirlers. Glee Club, and volunteers in their successful Bond and Stamp Parades are all positive evidence of that fact. But even that would not suffice. On October 17, 1942, the House of Representatives passed a bill lowering the draft age to eighteen. In addition to calling some of the boys in their senior year at that time, it affected the plans of many of our classmates, who accelerated their course to insure graduation before induction. The war at this time was passing into the offensive stage for the Allies. The landings in North Africa on November 7 were indicative of that. As our 2B term closed, so did the Casablanca confer- ence, with its demands for unconditional surrender. We turned over a new leaf entering 2A, at the same time the Russians turned the course of the war on their front by turning back the’ Nazis at Stalingrad. In May the annual Music Review came to Weequahic; Churchill also came to Washington. In June, many of those who were fortunate to fulfill the age requirements for working, obtained jobs for the summer. While we worked and played that summer, the war went on. Mussolini resigned in July, to be replaced by Badoglio. Less than a month before, the invasion of the Italian mainland, September 3, Rome was declared an open city. Italian warships sur- rendered to the Allies the same week that we surrendered ourselves to the teachers and home- work for another year—our third. Little time was occupied with teasing or scoffing the new crop of sophs—all attention and efforts were devoted to our first class elections. Under the direction of Mrs. Bernstein, the best grade adviser possible, the campaign and election provided interest and excitement for all. Of the numerous candidates, Babe Shapiro emerged as our first class President. With elections over, plans for the 3B class event materialized, and the roller skating party was a success. In the midst of all this, a wartime measure was adopted that pertained directly to us. The 10 o'clock curfew, requiring that adolescents of 16 or younger be off the streets at that time. Pag© Forty-four effected the majority of us, who were in that age group. Juvenile delinquency became a common problem, and though not prevalent in our vicinity, was the topic of many English compositions and current events discussions. During this term, those who were eligible, joined the Honor Society. An event of interest for the entire school was the presentation of a music award to Dr. Melnik and his group by the leader of the West Point band. At this time, the Allied leaders conferred together at the chosen locations. Cairo and Teheran. As an outcome of the conference General Eisenhower was announced as the Supreme Allied Commander, on Christmas Day. Our 3A term was only under way a few weeks when we held our second high school elections. This time Jerry Berner was favored as President, Marcia Cantor as Vice-President, Dottie Jacobson as Secretary, and Jean Canter as Treasurer. By their efficiency and popularity these class politicians maintained their oifice through all the succeeding elections. A special experimental English class was formed during this term. It composed of especially chosen honor students. This class originated its own dramatic production acted and produced by classmates under Mr. Bernstein's supervision— a novel achievement. The Glee Club's April Music Festival, with Janice Sprei in a leading role, was a highlight of the season. The Honor Society held its term event in New York where it witnessed Paul Robeson's portrayal of Othello. A boat ride up the Hudson River to Bear Mountain was hailed an ingenious idea for a class event (no one was lost through drowning although someone expressed fear of a submarine attack!) On June 6, every available radio and means of communication were utilized in the school to bring to students and teachers alike the news of the Allied invasion of France. Difficult it was to concentrate upon past history when it was in the making at that very moment. As school closed, the Republican National Convention opened, followed by the Democratic Convention three weeks later. It was a hot summer in more than one way. Nature was joined by the demon fire which destroyed the Barnum and Bailey Ringling Circus and our own Palisades Amusement Park. Hitler must have found it rather hot too when he was forced to leave Paris as the Allies liberated the capital of France. At last we were seniors, but we were com- pelled almost to swim to school those first few days when a hurricane hit the Eastern coast. The initial homework assignments were done by candlelight in many homes where electric facilities were disrupted. School events were numerous: another Glee Club perform- ance. The Pirates of Penzance, starring Janice Sprei; the 4B-4A Hop — the first to be held at night in the history of the school; a football victory over West Side; another Honor Society expedition to New York for The Late George Apley; and most impressive of all. Torch Day. World events of great importance were not overlooked by any means. Three years before, in our freshie'' year, an American general had made a pledge to the people of an Ameri- can possession. In the second month of our senior year, this promise was fulfilled when MacArthur returned to the Philippines. Two major conferences were held in the United States during the fall of 1944: at Dumbarton Oaks, and the other at Chicago. The former made plans for a world security organization, and the latter attempted to overcome the diffi- culties of international aviation. Mr. Roosevelt's re-election was anticipated by many of us. Not anticipated was the Presi- dent's sudden death on April 12, 1945. The shocking announcement over the radio at sup- pertime that evening found many of us incredul- ous. Could it be possible that one of the great- est men in world history, a man who had rescued our country from the throes of depres- sion when we were youngsters, who had rebuilt our nation, who had prepared us for war, who had successfully commanded our victories, who had labored so diligently for future world peace, was no longer with us? It was horribly true. We greeted mourning friends with solemn faces next day. and regular classes were cancelled for a special assembly which we left with teary eyes. We realized all too well that our rising generation had lost its greatest leader and as Harry S. Truman assumed the Presidential reins our determination to build a better world remained as strong as ever. Memories of our final term at wonderful Weequahic are over- shadowed by that catastrophe—memories of hectic days. Prom committees. Legend staff meetings, pictures for the yearbook. Class Coun- cil meetings, fittings for caps and gowns, orders for class jewelry, last minute rushes to pay back dues, and the prom, of course—are just samples of the rush-around, hustle-bustle of a senior A’s life. It was most tragic that Mr. Roosevelt didn't remain with us long enough to witness at least part of the victory for which he gave his life. Not long after, Berlin was occupied by the Allies in their swift dash across Germany. Cli- maxing a series of brilliant victories which started with the historic crossing of the Rhine at Remagen, the possibility of V-E Day occur- ring before graduation loomed into reality. It was on the morning of May 6 that the students of Weequahic High, ears glued to the radio, heard President Truman officially proclaim V-E Day. Out of this long awaited moment and out of the events which followed—the San Fran- cisco Conference—the capture and punishment of war criminals—the bloody fight for Okinawa —out of them all rang clear the call to America not to slacken efforts or turn from all-out war until complete victory was ours. Our June Class of 1945 has experienced the unusual and cold coincidence of living through four years of war and high school simultan- eously. Ian©! Hamisch.

Page Forty-six SNOOPING IN 201 ★ Amazingly enough we arose early one morning to report all the happenings in room 201. Luckily for us the first face which loomed into view was Edna Garfinkel's. We were glad since Edna's smiling face put us in a mood which made us equal to our task. It wasn't long before the three musketeers, Jordy Lieber- man, Alvin Levine and Bernie Ruff, stalked into the room, gathered together, and read all the print in the sports page of the paper. Speaking of journals. Ruth Ginsberg will soon take lessons in the art of pugilism if the rest of the class doesn't return the arm and leg they take from her when she produces her P.M. Lenore Kahane and Shirley Yablick are the kind that do homework. We're jealous, tell us how you do it! Most of the time someone has to carry smelling salts for Elaine Steinberg. Her faints occur sporadically and all one can hear is Frankie and off we go to give first aid. Florence Adler, Lorraine Panzer, and Marilyn Ogens are busily writing special essays for Mr. Korey, our great home room teacher. The thing which probably is perpetual in this world is the primping done by Frances Cook and Helen Moskowitz. We have a cow club, or shall I say merely a group of girls who chew almost constantly. The members are Shirley Strouds- berg. Blanche Wade. Sally Wiener. Alice Bilobran. and Edith Newman, President. We have a real outdoor girl amongst us. Bernice Schneiderman. She's the kind of regular girl that all too few of us are. And now, going to the other extreme, we have Seymour Steinlauf, Lorraine Peck, and Ruth Weisman, those horrid collectors always after the moolah. Marilyn Menkes is new to our homeroom, but already knows all of us. Assistant Sagamore Chief. Elaine Greenberg, has trouble with her colors, it seems she can only see red. For talking too much about their boy friends, Dorothy Budziak and Mae Bloom are ostracized at least once a week. In order to complete her collection of autographs, Edith Baume lugged her cast to school on her shoulders. Lovely Mary Datko, walks with a book on her head in order to practice for a modeling career. We can be perfectly sure of Alma Berkowitz's showing the envelopes of her mail from her boy friend to everyone. We can also be sure of Thelma Dankers' blushing. Mr. Korey enters, and there is Evelyn laverbaum behind him with her absence excuse in her hand. It is now three seconds before the bell and Thelma Kolber and Marian Safier make their grand entrance. There goes the bell, and Evelyn Jones enters, late as usual. Well, (yawn) it wasn't too bad getting up so early. In fact it was fun. Eyo-witnessos from East Cupcake Page Forty-eight IN THE REALMS OF 207 Let's enter the gates of a place called heaven. The kingdom of kingdoms—Room 207. There's Her Highness up front in her brocaded seat. Queen Eugenia, the first—Just can't be beat. With her sceptre of gold, she keeps us in hand. The 32 habitants of Chosney-Land. To acquaint you with all is my sacred duty— Meet the gentlemen first— Age before beauty.” Lord Melvin, to be a historian is fated. For in history A Double A he is rated. There's Sir Norman, the Knight, a studious lad, With a fine disposition—just never gets mad. Sir Jerome, the jester, is as sweet as lime— His only fault?—He's never on time! Now 3 Richards we have amid our domain, Knight Miller. Sir Goldrosen, Lord Dick, The Brain.” Now the sage of the court, an assiduous man. Is right over here—Won't you meet Sir Dan? Well, the last as a scholar always does rate— He's our one and our only Alfred the Great. Next we come to the charming ladies in waiting, The gals who are continuously tete-a-teting. When the queen's away, there's to take her place, Lady Sondra, renown as the Latin ace. When it comes to violins and a graceful hand. Lady Ann is the winner in our land. If a bond you're thinking of buying today. See La” Wigler up front—It's she you pay. Lady Lenore, a musical spot does fill— Carnegie Hall's her goal—and reach it she will. Here's another gal I'd like you to meet— Lady Ellen the Fair, who's sweeter than sweet. If trouble you've had in an algebra quiz, Confer with La” Lippman, our little math whiz. I see Countess Feins in this proverb precise: It's nice to be 'natch when you're naturally nice. We now have come to most precious a femme. Lady Laster in person—indeed a gem! Next we see Countess Doris in constant debate With Lord Melvin on History and subjects of late. Over here is a party friendly to all. Lady Milly's” the name—In case you call. Here's a foursome of which it's well worth tollin'. Ladies Elsa. Celia, Mar” and Helen. To forget these gals would indeed be illegal, So add two old-timers—Nizborski and Siegel. New additions we have in this place called heaven— But of course—all femmes and numbering seven. Meet Seidler, Rosenblatt, Paley and Wynn, Kaufman, Weisberg and dear Mulligan. Now last, but not least, you've arrived at this miss. Very truly yours. Landsman, who thought of all this. Helen Landsman Pago Forty-nino THE HUBA HUBA ROOM ★ Two minutes, will he make it? Only one more minute to go. and he isn't here yet. As the 8:30 bell rings, one can hear Artie (black sheep of his homeroom) Boden slipping in on a wing and a prayer. Naturally, he goes to the office for a late slip only to meet Leah Wachsman, who is late because she stopped to shine her engagement ring. There is a photo finish for third place between Alberta Voigt, who helped fix a flat on the 8:15 bus, and Vera (I'll never be late again) Zwankoff, who literally fell out of bed so hard that she had to return home to see if the floor was still in one piece— (It was!) These little dears have been to the office for late slips so often, that I think it's only fair that we make a cement impression of their elbows in the desk. Waiting impatiently for the late-comers. Dotty (Morgenthau) Jacobson can be seen, gun in hand, collecting money for everything from the Red Cross to a new pair of shoes for herself. They're mighty pretty Dot. She thanks Mrs. Nusbaum for her son, Harvey, and Mrs. Levitt for her son. Phil (Dutch) who are the answer to a financial collector's dreams by being the first to start the moolah rolling. We never ask where these two Rockefellers get the do-re-mi, we're afraid of what they may tell us. Doris Swersky, between cracking her gun (wish we knew where she gets it) and making like Perc Westmore. Hollywood make-up artist, draws as her audience George the Wave Slotnick, and Ruth Zucker. During this artistic demonstration, one can hear the laughter of Dorothy Weisman and Alice Klingenberg directed towards the witty remarks of Francine Schwartz, who thanks them kindly for their appreciation of good humor and promises to pay them in the near future. Sandy Fischer is too busy listening to Janice (my brother is engaged) Waldholz and Dotty (Auntie) Novitch with their early morning resume of what cooks with the male population, to be Jx thered with anything else. At this point, that inseparable pair. Marian Lachtman, who manages a smile even at this ridiculously early hour, and Rita Levine proudly displaying pictures of her adorable niece, walk into the room and are greeted by the smiling faces of Yetta Mont, Lorraine (Mickey) Lynskey, Frances Gendel (talking about that certain guy in navy blue) and Estelle Best, who stops in the midst of I Dream of You just long enough to say “hello to these two girls whose mothers must have been frightened by Siamese Twins. Walking further down the last mile, they are stopped by Joy Poliak and a simple-e-e gorgeous picture cf her Marine brother. A bowling ball has nothing over Madge Hurley as she knocks down Adele Bronfman and Victoria Broda, trying to get her Calumet from Ritalee Chapman who hides under her desk to escape the rush of eagerly extended hands. As we come to the end of our rope, we find a teacher's dream. Shirley Gersten, Theresa Gable, (no relation to Clark) and Lois Cooperman, all who have not yet awakened and thus observe a few minutes silence. In passing on to the more heard-from corner of the room, we come to the redheads, Naomi Fenichel and Zelda Zamchick. The former must learn to pay attention to the reading of the notices or she'll spend the rest of the term playing parcheesi with Miss Colburn during her brief stay after school. The latter—by the way where is she? Oh, here she comes now. still tripping the light fantastic from the night before; better get over her crush on Johnnie Johnston because 'T' want him for myself. As we leave this huba huba gay room, we may pass out quietly to our first period class.” Rita Levine Francine Schwartz Page Fifty RED CROSS POST 'Twas a Red Cross collection, and all through the class, Not a creature was stirring to reach for the pass. Mrs. B. was in front and we waited in awe, Her eyes traveled o'er us and here's what she saw. The first seen was Sisi,'' who though camera shy. Reads announcements with ease, and is a regular guy. Behind him is seated a boy they call Bras, Whose one weakness is bringing all the dogs to our class. Next she saw Clive, whose miserable fate Is to find out if Larry is absent or late. And as Mrs. Bernstein glances down the line. There's Dotty and Marcia whose twirling's just fine. Behind them was Mina, the ''deb'' of our class. Gabbing with Muriel, a likeable lass. She next heard ''Senator'' Fishman who'll be a success; He should get a degree, (if not M.D.— B.S. !) Then she saw Margie's sweet smiling face And genial Herby was in the next place. There's Sandy Galinkin, of the Dodgers he's thinkin' And Len Lobe at Anna May or Marion is winkin'. There's Norma who's the agent for our Calumet, And looking for a lost book is Joycie Lennett. Then Lila and Emily whose names can be seen On the Super or Honor Roll while we all turn green. She next sees A1 Gross who is singing (?) a tune While both Shirleys and Florence try hard to swoon. Reading the sports page is Harry Levine, And behind him our agreeable Benny is seen. Next seen was Lebo who'll implore or cajole Anyone at all to join his outdoor patrol. Our class Councilman, Bob. says he'd “rather be right, He may not have won. but he put up a good fight; Then there's Len Schwartz, who's quite happy you see, For he's seated conveniently near Marcia P. There's Saul Gluck whose running is quite far from slow; Where's Robbie? Not here yet, she'll come later, though. She next sees George Greenberg of saxophone fame, And both of our Junes (we won't attempt their last names). Angellic faces are seen not only in heaven, But in the very secular homeroom of 227. Mrs. Bernstein gazed o'er us, smiled fondly and then Proceeded to squeeze dough for the Red Cross again. Marcia Cantor Joyce Lennott Page Fifty-one THE LEGEND OF 235 Many years ago when few were alive. There was born the Legend of 235. Mrs. Lutzke was 'pointed, by our principal wise, To found a homeroom of average size. My pupils, she thought, should vary in size And range in intellect from stupid to wise. It really was no phenomenon That the brains were Thorworth and Avergon. Drill's importance could be foreseen As was that of Berner and S. Gocdstein. In charge of stamps was Rhoda Cohen And under her yoke we uttered many a groan. Geltzeiler was in charge of collecting the scrap, And L. Miller took 'tendance without using a map. Officers chosen, she wanted to spot. For the bulk of the homeroom a nice quiet lot. Observing those of exemplary mien. She picked Barnett, Cassanos, and Rubenstein. Lennie Swimmer, who's so very quiet. Is everyone's friend, and none can deny it. Greenstein's behavior will be a model for all, And Feldman will never engage in a brawl. Wernikoff rates her own little show 'Cause she's really so pleasant to get to know. Plager. she said, will not cause much trouble, The same goes for R. Rosenberg, only it's double. Leon Tabankin. who's one of the boys, Is pacific at heart, and doesn't cause noise. We have other courses besides the C. P. And to represent them are the following three”: From Sect, she chose Duchin and Beatie Blick, And from Civic was Sonet, who’s pretty slick. To make the homeroom a lively one, She chose these boys to supply the fun: She picked Bernie Berman, not knowing that fate Had it in store that he'd always be late. Not sensing the fact that, long after the bell, I. Miller and Mopsik would be raising hell. She chose these boys, who along with Henkle. Made so much noise you couldn't hear Schenkel. Never'd she think that angelic Herb Wiener Would pose such a problem concerning demeanor. Neil Finkel'd be quiet, she surmised, But you'd never believe how she was surprised. The homeroom, she thought, would be all out of sorts If we didn't include boys from some of our sports. From the basketball court she chose Babe Shapiro, Who's everyone's friend and 235's hero. From track and field the boys who we'd need, She thought, would be Lonoff and Dickie Freed. Economically speaking, aloof on a throne. Who else could she choose but Albie Cohen? Wallenstein was picked as the last for our room To protect the class from impending gloom. College's the aim of most of the class, So make it your business to see that you pass. With these words of advice, which we all did endorse, We faithfully started our high school course. Now we look behind upon four pleasant years As we leave our school 'mid laughter and tears. Jorry Bornor Page Fifty-two HERRONVILLE ★ Of all the homerooms which are senior homerooms, there is no homeroom like 302. So did I say it was the best. Excuse me one minute, please, Evelyn Herold, Ruth Fink, Lenore Bankin, Anne Bankin, and Joy Grab- felder have banded together in order to knock me over. Why they must always be tardy is beyond me (Get that word ''tardy''—50 cents at least!). That guy Paul Goodman deserves a pat on the back for his excellent work on the projection staff. We have Arnold ''Red'' Green- berg in our class, the same what plays first team baseball and also does the latter for any lucky gal about. If it's humor you want in any size, shape, or (preferably clean) just ask for Milty Kaplan, our personality kid. Of course, there are those love-sick females Eileen Schrieber with her Irv and Yolanda Guidano with her Jack. One of the class peaches is Della Cochrane who brought in scads of ads for this manuscript. Judge Dave Horowitz is always collecting dues, money, money or may- be money. A1 Jacobs, our track star, finds his talent profitable at such times. In a corner by the side one can find Audree Alberts filling out forms for the Nurse Cadets. Catherine Capozio and Marie Braelow sit back and laugh at all of us, those meanies. The power of speech God Bless us all, is OK as long as we don't take advantage of it. Will someone please inform Judie Rocklin? Gossip, gossip, Nancy Brett and Rascha Oshie discuss Saturday night over throughout the week. Lily Pons' eternal rival. Joan Echelman has a seat in our H. R. The sane, normal, and ever charming Ellen Bogner is all too quiet. Maurice Heller and Shirley Miller, newcomers to our class, have raised our standards by doing their homework. In our midst we have a genius in the art of punctua- tion, Marilyn Margenstern. Occasionally Betty Reiss comes to school bedecked in her C A P uniform. We understand she has a handsome brother! We practically never see Morey Ershow; he's always with Elaine Greenberg. Can we ever forget Sam Birnbaum's dancing at the Arthur Murray Contests? It hardly takes a word to make Charles (Buddy) Herman to see red. for he is always dreaming of Marilyn. Ira Mankoff and Seymour Nauhauser always discuss the sports of the day. I should like to tell you that we have THE Elvin Rosenberg as one of our associates! ! ! We all miss Milton Kaufman, who is a member of the armed services already. No sir, there's no H. R. like 302. We may be sort of stupid, but we love each other. We don't care what you think. We're happy! Good Eye Page Fifty, three WHERE THE ELITE MEET ★ As the eight-thirty bell rings with that dread- ful note of finality. Bob Silverman, Janet Klein, and Elaine Richards have but their noses over the threshold and so down they march for late slips. Ted Honigfeld got wise after being tardy eighty days out of eighty-one and left his cloth- ing outside the door. Wasn't he sorry the day the Whams collected it for Bundles for Latvia Week. Of course, before that blessed bell, Janet Harnisch, Rae Berkenfeld, and Evelyn Jacobs can be seen huddled together comparing notes on their respective beaus. The seemingly friendly arguments with which Alan Greene and Miss Johnston generally begin usually ends up with their throwing erasers as well as some very witty remarks. Jean Canter almost cries as she begs us to buy ten cent stamps or our homeroom will no longer be listed, not even last. Since there is always a representative needed for some sort of meeting, Irwin Tallan bravely accepts his fate and says he'll go. The con- versation which Rosalyn Brooks and Muriel Friedman begin on sighting each other, con- tinues through the period. Subject matter? Everything and anything. Doris Berg is always very reluctant to give up her Juicy Fruit but never so to speak about Pep. We will find without a doubt that Bernie Sobel is campaign- ing for Chief of the Pencil Sharpeners’ Brigaae or something else. If you look back three seats you'll discover that the long limbs relaxing under your seat belong to one Don Yablonsky. The same can be discerned only after removing the sports page, which is generally propped up in front of him. Sylvia Schechter will probably be copying someone's Chem experiment, while Joan Wolfe, who took Chem last term, grins sadistically and says, don't ask me, I don't know. Poor, misunderstood Stu Moss, is about the most quiet boy in our homeroom (next to Stan Jennis). It seems he always drops his pen, sneezes, or turns around at the wrong time. Our contribution to the Met is Harriette Oren- stein. Ironically enough, it is Richard Herman who handles the dainty blue and pink excuses and warns the kids about being absent too often. All too quiet is Richard Brodkin. But then again silence is golden, why not get rich? Probably Lorraine Dlugitch and Nellie Efimchik will become secretaries to Sam Goldwyn or Rocke- feller. Surely a very unique sight is observing Marty Greenstein as he advises the gals on their selection of lipsticks and powder. Barbara Croutch and Edwin Yanowitz are those neces- sary kinds of people. Anyone at anytime would be happy to listen to Muriel Plotkin's jokes. Most everyone asks Eva Enfield to explain the difficult processes tor Chem. Anytime, any- place, anywhere, Gloria Finkelstein will be happy to tell you about her brothers overseas. The golden locks of Nancy Elias and the raven tresses of Elsye Slavkovsky add to the attrac- tiveness of our homeroom. Yes, you've guessed it. We think we're the best homeroom in the whole school. Who said you should ask Miss Johnston? Well, there goes the bell, first perioa. Evelyn Jacob� Page Fifty-four TEPEE THEATER ★ If at 8:25 you see no one in the section but Arthur Perelman, don't fret, for the throng doesn't start arriving until 8:29. As the doors of the theater close with the ringing of a gong, Kenny Stock, Charlie Shafman (with his beige coat), and Sander Rice can be seen rushing down the aisles. (Gibby Raff is due to arrive in about two minutes.) Waiting for the morning performance to begin, that wise-cracking pair in brown and green sweaters, respectively, Teddy Weiss and Lenny Maisel, may be seen yelling helpful cheers to their pal. Jacky Kahn who is wrangling with director, Miss Stine. Calling across the aisles with the latest scuttle- butt are Lorraine Tittel and Ellen Pinko. Discus- sing the coming performance are Gladie Miso- witz and the dimpled Beverly Meltzer. The audience is now being asked to quiet down by Shirley Friedlander who has come to the stage to give a stirring speecn for the necessity of selling bonds and stamps. Glancing over the audience, a choice second row seat is seen empty. Did the owner of the seat decide to stay at home? No, it's just a matter of not liking his seat for there is Lippy in the ladies section, conversing with Ruth Horrowitz and Judy Gross- man. Strange as it seems, Aileen Verger is wearing purple glasses—yesterday they were green (to match her skirt). Conscientiously reading the script, is Barton Freund in the first row. Before the main attraction begins, coming attractions are read to the unconscious audi- ence by the big boss, Harold Krusch. About this time, the flag salute takes place. Claire Reiss has been persuaded to preside this morning. Henry Warner, that dignified O.B.A. member, can be seen wriggling laboriously out of his sandwiched-in seat. Weaving in and out of the aisles is usherette Phyllis Burdeau. collecting donations for the Tepee treasury. Play bills are handed out by Marty Kesselhaut. Irwin Brody, Leatrice Margulies, Muriel Cohen, and Janice Greenberg are absorbed in Who's Who In the Cast but not with the critical eye of its writer, Helen Berg. The Star-Ledger Sports Section is handed across the aisle from Stan Baron, football star, to his grid-iron companion, Marty Grossbarth. While Rieva Forman records beautiful notes for Dr. Melnik, Larry Jacobs and Herman Horo- witz are playing strands of some waltz and the performance begins......... Helen Borg Phyllis Burdeau Rieva Forman Page Fifty-five HOMEROOM SWEET HOMEROOM ★ Does your homeroom look different lately? Do the boys complain about the hardships of shaving regularly? Do the girls spend their mornings comparing proofs? Are exams spoken of as a thing of the past? If your homeroom has these symptoms, don't be perturbed. There is absolutely nothing wrong. These are common everyday occurrences in the typical 4A home- room. Let us visit homeroom 335. If we enter at eight twenty-nine we will have arrived before the majority of the students. Upon first entering, the correct procedure is to face Miss O'Connor, the celebrated homeroom teacher and ring- master, bow three times to the east, and. in a reverent tone, whisper a fond good morn- ing in her ear. After completing this ceremony, one is accosted by either Irwin Markowitz selling War Stamps. Jeanne Barnett collecting class dues, or Irwin Markowitz selling more War Stamps. At this stage a bespectacled lad enters upon the scene and proceeds to beg for any morsel of available homework. After brushing Marty Reigelhaupt out of the way. we proceed to trip over an elongated pair of legs which seem to be growing from the sports page of the Star-Ledger. Without even looking up. we mumble a hurried good eye to the legs which belong to Marvin Fruchter. The paper is surrounded by George Ehrlich. Bernie Kittner, and Sheldon Young, each determined to get as much out of the jokes as possible until the final bell rings. Continuing on our little tour we come upon Merwin Levy and Marvin Brodsky who are sitting in a corner—no other homeroom can make this statement! Herby Choice and Bernie Robinowitz, the two clean shaven lads of the class, are busily collabo- rating on a book entitled The Trials and Tribu- lations in the Chem Lab. Lately it has been rumored that when a certain group of students from R335 approach the Chem Lab a chubby hand reaches out, places a Small Pox sign on the door, and slams it tightly shut—we can take a hint. Standing to one side practis- ing the flag salutes is Kurt Mayer, the cele- brated flag salute leader. Renee Marx, Gloria Lowenstein, Janet Dubin and Janice Sprei are comparing proofs of their graduation pictures, each hoping the other will have something nice to say about her proofs. Unnoticed by all in this hub-hub are Bella Mitzman and Richard Melnik who are feverishly counting boys and girls respectively for the morning attendance list. If Bob Ortner is not around you will prob- ably find him in the halls with Ev Jacobs. Shelly Grossbarth, Danny Skoler, and Barbara Seber- sky are standing at their regular spots by the window watching Marilyn Gruber and William Speedy Lieberman hustle off the bus. Shelly is taking bets as to who will win the daily mara- thon up the steps. Now a tension holds the class. As 8:29 rolls around the door is thrown open and two sets of books are thrown at the hapless figure of Robert Lowe who has a seat by the door. Upon reviving Lowe we pick up several of the books and identify them as be- longing to Debby Rabinowitz and Barbara Barrett, who have come to school early for a change. Even in the loudest boiler factories there are isolated areas of quiet. So, too, in Homeroom 335 we find Inge Reiner, Claire Liederman, and Donald Hersh sitting in a circle discussing heatedly Mendelejeff's Periodic Law of Atomic Weights. (Ed. Note—Donald Hersh was sick that day.) Upon close examination we find several other quiet students. Jackie Silver- man is a new, but welcome, recruit. Other members of the H. R. 335 branch of the Lily Whiters include Eadie Daniels, who twirls a mean baton, Corrinne Tzeses, and Alma Press. Some day one of them is going to write a book on being good and the whole class will under- stand how they do it. This about sums up the works. Packing our pads, pencils and portable foxholes, we sneak past the guards and breathing a thankful fare- well, depart for greener pastures. . . . The cows have come home. Page Fifty-six Writ by Irwin Markowitz and Donald Hersh. With Pen and Camera Through Weequahic Page Fifiy� ©v n SAGA OF THE VALIANT H’lo—Is this «ho lunchroom? ' Are ycu kidding? What does 1« look like—the xoo? Yes. ★ And so begins the episodo in which we see illustrated tho truo valor of the Weequahic student. As tho advance into the west was made by the pioneers, so we advanced into the school eatery. This is the saga of a valiant pioneer; Octavius Z. Epstein. We first see Mr. Epstein, fighting his way to the chow line—Weequahic style—in the army they've got it good. Bet're he approaches the end of the line, a muffled, blood-curdling scream rings out. only to be obliterated by the steady trampling of feet. Mr. Epstein wonders what is wrong but is soon enlightened by finding himself stopping over what was formerly a Weequahic student. He tripped—went down—and met his fate. But overy student must accept this as his eventual end when he vclunteers to break bread in the happy hunting grounds. Not much fuss is made over one mishap, save for the janitor, spoon, blotter, and sponge in hand scraping up tho remains of said student for shipment to his family. Mr. Epstein suddenly finds himself in the milk box with tho rest of tho bottles. He is whisked into tho kitchen, thrust into tho dish-washer and half drowned. After boing dumped out and sorted out of the rest of the silverware, he puts his clothes on. picks up his arm and returns to the tray. Long since have the less valiant shrunken from the ordeal and are making their way around the tables, begging, a crumb hore. a crust of breed thero. Now and then a starved, famished wretch, found chewing on the tables, is rushed down to the nurse. We pause here for a word of appreciation to the Red Cross and medical corps for their fine work in evacuating tho wounded and administering aid to them. It is needless to say how many lives that one pint of Matzo juice has saved. Contributions will be accepted in the chemistry lab whore they’re interested in students—ha. ha. Henceforth. Mr. Epstein will be called Octavius because of the familiarity with the boy. established during his adventures. At last the goal is in sight. Octavius grabs the first edible thing in sight, she screams, he then manages to get a plate still damp with gravy. He seizes it and rips his way to a table. No chairs— Demoralized, he spreads his humble repast on the floor and makes ready his bread. No sooner does he do this then a heavy, size twelve foot descends on his meal and obliterates it. At this time our attention is diverted by a distant, approaching rumble. Then we see a hulk booming ahead. A beefy paw extends a salami—like fingers and a booming voice roars— Clean it up—you? The figure of the lunchroom overseer then recedes Into the seething mob. We next see Octavius slobbering and raving on the floor. Let's listen. NEXT TIME I'LL PACK MY OWN LUNCH!

With condescending yawns toward me. Her class remarks win first acclaim. Though what I'd said seemed just tho samo: But what's lacking in facts in tho classroom game Is made up by previous scholarly fame. In tests that cause my brow to sweat. That make me chew my nails and fret; My humble brain I do regret. As she turns and says. “Not finished yet?

That must be a senior. For sophs don't dare to cut. Again it's peaceful in the hallway, Except the Glee Club must sing. Each student is still eyeing the doorway. Waiting for the next bell to ring. Renee Marx ★ AH SPRING The birds are flitting all around. Tho great spring thaw's come to the ground. The trees aro blossoming—oh. gentle bud! We walk knee-deop in stuff called—mud! Ah Spring!

Eleanor GroensJein ★ THE OPPOSITE SEX 1 must confess. I've yet to see A girl who's not a mystery. A girl who doesn't swing and sway While walking through the halls each day. A girl who's sweet and very kind. A girl who can make up her mind, A girl who never is two faced, A girl who never sticks like pasto. To some poor sucker, she has met. A girl who doesn't lovo to pet, A girl who never is a cat. A girl who doesn't think she's fat. A girl who doesn't want new clothes, A girl without a turned up nose, A girl who doesn't fix her hair At ovory moment she would dare. A girl like this, you'll never see. But without girls, whore would we be? Herbert Wiener Page Sixty-one Sports FOOTBALL—The loot ball team wai woll tilled by members ol our class.

This was accomplished by means of a specially designed rocket ship. Present efforts arc bent toward getting them to successfully com- plete a trip back to earth. The story behind this achievement is a long one. the kind that should inspire every budding scientist. It originated in the physics lab of Wecquahic High School where NT N BURG and ROBINOWTTZ both had their experiments accepted after a string of thirteen straight rejections. It was this -park of en- couragement that led them into the fic’d cf science and a career. Years later, in the private laboratories of the professors and with the aid of engineers RICHARD MILLER. Supreme Court Ends Lonoff Case Supreme Court Justice DANIEL SKOLER recently handed down a decision in the case of HAROLD LONOFF vs. State that rocked our public education system. Justice Skoler stated that it was the opinion of the court that the commandeering by teachers of chewing gum. yo-yos. newspapers, or other student belong- ings even as a means of enforcing attention was depriving the student of property without due process of the law and therefore basically un- constitutional. This victory for brilli- ant young lawyer, CHARLES SHAFM N who with the aid of legal assistant. DOROTHY BUD- ZIAK and A DELE BRONFMAN worked for years to bring the case into the legal clouds of the Supreme Court. Financial backing for the long fought case was supplied by BOB LILSCHULTZof the LILLY Shoe String and broke stock broker DAVE HORYVTTZ. The only consolation these cleaned out financiers had was the inspiring sight of long lines of American youth forming in every public school to retrieve confiscated property—thanks to the fourteenth amendment.

Cure Guinea Pips In the medical field, two Wecqua- hic alumni teamed up again to make one of the year’s greatest contributions to experimental medi- cine. Dr. GEORGE ERLICH and biologist IRWIN TALLAN were awarded the NUSBAUM prize for their work in affecting an instan- taneors cure for halitosis in guinea pigs. Doctors refused to work with guinea pigs possessing bad breath and when in 1954 over 90% of the creatures were affHeated with this malady, medical experimentation was at a virtual -tandstill. The cure, therefore, came at a time when the very progress of medicine was threatened. Nurses EVA ENFIELD and AUDREE ALBERTS and medical assistants LOIS COOLER- MAN. RUTH ROSENBERG, and ELSA HARRIS devoted countless hours spinning the roulette wheel until the correct serum was chosen from the many unknowns. Before formula ”88” was risked on guinea pigs a crew of volunteer human beings were tested with it. Those valients who risked their lives that guinea pigs might serve humanity were BEATRICE BUCK. THERESA GABEL, and JANICE WALDHOLTZ. Now the serum ha been put on large scale produc- tion and the problem is fully licked.

Super Shorthand Created An original shorthand has been developed by stenographers Nellie Efimchik, Hilda Wcisbcrg. Helen Rosenblatt, and Lorraine Wynn that can enable the average secretary to take dictation and engage the boss in a fast moving poker game between words. This wonderful system is twice as quick and much more accu- rate than standard shorthand. When tested by the office staff of the Kwaloff Cosmetic Company, it in- creased office efficiency as much as 60% according to office supervisor Lorraine Dlugitch. The inspiration for the basis around which this system is molded came from locker notes inscribed in the halls of Wecquahic High. At the request of the editor the stenogra- phers developed the system for ten long years so Forecast could have the scoop. BABY SPECIALISTS Lila Toomin, M.D. Helen Thorworth, M.D. Hours: 1-2 P. M. Medical Tower Accent on Smartness in Spring Fashion Show Spring styles and colors made a splashy appearance for the clothes retailers of the country at an elabo- rate fashion show sponsored by New York’s best designers. Seen at the affair, which brought out represen- tatives of all the larger department stores and shops, were buyers Joy Grabfclder, Barbara Croutch, and Sylvia Schecter. The hit of the show was a com- plete spring ensemble produced by designers Gladys Misowitz and Janet Klein. From whimsical hat through topcoat to one piece bathing suit, a sophisticated motif in shades of tattle talc gray and copper sulfate blue was worked in. The outfit, cost- ing only $35 due to less—and less— and less material was ably modeled by Power girls Muriel Cohen and Mary Datko. If the garments look this good on Mrs. America, hus- band;. will be doling out money willingly this year.

Finkcl Photographer.' “Blurry Shots—Our Specialty” Weequahic Faculty Bolstered February term additions to the distinguished faculty of Wecquahic High have given the school a fresh supply of genuine femininity. Helen Landsman, Eileen Schrciber, Shirley Frcidlandcr, Bernice Schnciderman, Ellen Pinko, and Anne Parsonnct are now offering their talents as in- structors in everything from Spanish to Mathematics in the very rooms they so light-heartedly occupied many long liyars ago. Having switched their lines to the positions of the enemy it is not known whe- ther these instructors will boost the scholastic record of the institution— but boy, arc they lifting morale! The inducement of good looking, well planned, teachers has not only elim- inated high cutting rates” but has the males, from freshmen to senior, wearing tidy clothes and well- combed toupees to classes. Another new arrival at the school is Jean Barnett, vocational guidance consultee. Miss Barnett revealed with anxiety that over half the young men and women leaving the school have no idea of what they want to be or else have chosen careers for which they are entirely unsuited. Through aptitude tests, vocational exams, and personal interviews, Jean hopes to boost this figure.

Those youngsters, rapidly climbing to the top of the ladder, were recog- nized by the singular honor of ap- pearing on this program of radio “greats. Appearing in a dramatic presenta- tion “The Rose and the Nose, Debby Rabinowitz proved her ability as one of the most capable radio actresses in the business. Debby has appeared, formerly, as John’s first, second, and third wife in all three soap box operas and as Harrigan's third cousin in District Attorney.” Jack Silverman, another of radio’s hopefuls, was Master of Ceremonies for the evening, taking time off front his own program. “Rubble or Noth- ing,” sponsored by the Mankoff Chewing Gum Company. Jack first received acclaim for his work on the I.onc Ranger program. For two years M. C. Silverman stood by as the aging Lone Ranger creaked “Whoa Silver!” and then, stepping up to the micropho.nc, he neighed. Comedians Run Wild. Bits by two of radio’s top comedy trios were also given precious time on the air. Weiss, Yanowitz, and Slotnick, voted the most laughable comedy team on the air performed with their usual half-baked skill. Weiss told the jokes—Slotnick and Yanowitz laughed. Ed and George were not up to par. Then, before the dial could be turned, the poor man’s Can You Top This” board of ex- perts were on. Arthur Braslawsky. Joe Fishman, and Seymour Abra- hamson comprised the gloomy group. As anticipated, not a single joke was topped all evening.

Since Uncle John has stepped into the shoes of Uncle Don. he has man- aged to arouse the unfailing devo- tion, confidence, and horror of the kiddies of America. The program was concluded with a stirring address by social workers Marilyn Brotman, Doris Berg, and Ellen Gradenwitz who had to appear on this program to get into the Forecast. The women reminded a nation-wide audience that in a land of opportunity like ours, we should strive to extend that opportunity to all of those who are denied it.
