SENIOR DIRECTORY. . ciedicazfi 71 E dedicate ELCHANITE 1956 to the 8-year-old State of Israel, whose establishment as a world-recognized Jewish homeland on the 5th day of Iyar, 5708, through the will of G-d, realized the 2,000-year-old dream of her persecuted people. We look with faith toward the future, with the fervent hope that the enmity and hatred exhibited both actively and passively toward the State of Israel in her present crisis will vanish. We look with faith toward the establishment in our day of a Torah-true Israel, from whose holy city Torah will issue forth to her people. Although deserted by the nations of the world, Israel stands far from alone. Though apparently without any ties, she maintains the strongest of them all. For the Land of Israel possesses an ancient and eternal bond with G-d. and the Jewish people the world over, whose roots are in her ground. The Jew and the Land of Zion are one. And the Jew will never forget Zion. , D , WA' D '5 197 7 17.3 R 5 ,D 9 . .7 I7 D VJ? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Ie! my right Izmir! forge! her CIIIIIIIILQ.

In addition to Burg, who acted as master of ceremonies and entertained at the piano, and Rubenstein, who took part in a guitar duet with Kennard Kobrin, were the following performers: Larry Arberman and Phil Frost, comediansg Moishe Goldberg and Shepsie Katz, magicians, and Aaron Dobin, singing guest star at the guitar. W Henry Belman and Abraham Gafni joined with Frost and Rubenstein for vocal selections as a quartet.

Its members are selected on the basis of interviews by the Vice-President and the Co-Captains, followed by Student Council ap- proval. X This year, in order to attain greater efficiency, ,fl the library, study room, basement, auditorium and Ayr if yard, in addition to the halls. were divided into I. l r l l sections, each patrolled by a Service Squad mem- ber. This 40-member law enforcement body operates in cooperation with the Student Court. and was headed this year by Newton Feld and Bernard Langenauer in the fall term, and by Noel Pugach and Marcel Shwergold in the spring. A regulation instituted recently compels the Service Squad mem- ber to be present at Student Court meetings to present his account of the misdemeanor for which he has reported the accused. Much credit is due this vital organ of student activity. ff' 9 . 0 Je- Y V V+ in T 'ii X . f -. i. IS.. t Hg . .il Q 'l il it 2 1 l xg l S 1 P. .K i' I E spring ter FRONT ROW: M. Kellman, J. Schnure.

YEAR and a half ago the mirneographed Topics Bulletin was established to supplement the printed Topics and give a more complete and up-to-date coverage of the school's news and events. Not content with the fulfillment of this pur- pose, it has opened its editorial page to comments by the students and its editorial staff on such items as B.T.Afs Arista and the school curriculum. Jack Ness will take over the Bulletin editorship next year from Morris Goldberg, who has headed it since its inception. NDER the editorship of Abraham B. Witty, and the supervision of Mr. Sidney Gold, The Topics completed its third year as a printed news- paper. As in the past, B.T.A.'s organ of student expression was published by the Journalism Club. This year witnessed a few noteworthy changes. Among them were the initiation of a new column, Topics of the Times, the institution of a more aggressive editorial policy, and the adoption of a more conservative banner. A member of the Co- lumbia Scholastic Press Association, The Topics received a third place rating in 1955 competition. Left 10 right: Editor-in-Chief M. Goldberg, J. Ness, . W Goodman, D.

HIS year's edition of Kolenu, B.T.A.'s Hebrew literary publication. not only reflects the spirit and teachings of the Yeshiva, but also the journal- istic and artistic talents of its student contributors. Breaking with Kolenu's tradition of past years. the Editors-in-Chief, Mayer Rabinowitz and Hyam Wasserman, under the faculty supervision of Rabbi Joseph Epstein, undertook the task of transform- ing the publication from a purely literary journal to a larger and more attractive Hebrew magazine. Features included in this year's edition are an article by Mayer Rabinowitz on Rashi's Torah commentary. a piece by Hershel Farkas on Moroc- can Jewry and its cultural problems in the State of Israel, and an essay on the relationship between art and religion, by Howard Burg. f l lic l Upltw xg? is f 4 fi ,A ' .' , J . - v -v' A. if +333 .1 Q: 4' 'f .

Therefore, in his junior year, Shimmie,' organized one. Mostly through his unfailing efforts, attendance at the Mishmar grew from the scant ten or so at the first few ses- sions to the present average of more than forty students a week. Mishmars in B.T.A. start at 6:45 each Thurs- day night, giving the attending students enough time to eat before the start of their diligent study until 10 o'clock. A rabbi from the Hebrew De- partment is always present to give any needed help. If nothing more than a proof of the sincerity of B.T.A. students, the mishmar has admirably ac- complished its purpose. - -'r wr , ,un ' vhs- f fafyffi' ' 1 I ' ' Nfl X! X fx!

Put into operation by fall term Ath- letic Manager, George Falk, and maintained by Marty Lebowitz, his spring successor, the system awards points on a 5-3-1 basis for first, second. and third place finishes in each phase of competi- tion. The class receiving the largest total of points is the intra-mural champion. Following an established custom, the Lag B'Omer outing featured the intra-mural softball championship contest, in addition to many other athletic events. The wide variety of sports which includes base- ball, basketball, football, slapball, foul-shooting. handball, ping-pong, tennis, and track, affords each student the opportunity to participate in his desired activity. 1955-1956 Intro-Mural Winners Inlra-Mural C lzampionship-C lass 7 b-8b Baseball-Sb Basketball-7a, 4b Football-7b Foul-Shooting-7a, 4b Slapbal!-7b Ping-Pong-l'VIr1rIy Lebowifg X9 X U6 77' ' A' f ,Z l' 5 , . -A O ,f i g 1 And furthermore I will . . .

They who reek from smell of death, They who fortune have never met, Bad or good they buy and are bought, And then to lose it all for naught. Learned men who learn the law, Men whose knowledge all adore, Gain acclaim and praise, and yet It soon is lost, it's all for naught. The lovely rose which held my grace, Whose beauty laid the sun's to waste Is gone, and though I dread the thought, I know what I have is all for naught.

Webster's Unabridged Dictionary defines faith as a 'fdeeply rooted trust in G-d and his goodness. However, faith is a great deal more than that. It is that quality which makes the weak strong and the cowardly brave. Let me tell you of an incident in my life-an incident which demon- strates the marvelous power of emunah. In the European town fshtehtlj in which I was born, our lives were inextricably bound to the tra- ditions of our fathers. My first memories are those of the wonderful peace which descended upon our home with the arrival of the Sabbath. Once a week, amid the redolence of the many Sabbath delicacies, our trivial cares and worries were forgotten. The Sabbath was a day of rest, of holiness, of rejoicing, of communion with the Almighty G-d himself. This was the spirit pervading our household not only on the Sabbath, but also on every one of the many holidays throughout the year. It was especially so on Passover. It is during the Passover of my sixth year that my story begins. The holiday was being ceremoni- ously ushered in, and with it came the first signs of spring. The house was immaculately clean, matzohs were baking in the oven, and we were all bedecked in our best finery. The first two days passed quickly-too quickly for a little boy who would have to attend cheder as soon as the Inter- mediate days would begin. And so, the first day of Chol Hamoed arrived, and I set out for cheder. I had been attending the Hebrew school since l was five. The Rabbi taught everything from the Aleph Bes to Chumash. We were a class of fifteen boys ranging in age from five to ten years. The teacher's name was Reb Samson, and what an in- congruous appellation it was! Samson of the Bible was a great judge and leader of his people. He was the tallest and bravest of men. It is said that he had the strength of a lion. Our Reb Samson was the exact antithesis. He was short, scarcely five feet in height, and very slight of build. He had a sparse beard and a high squeaky voice. More- over, he was constantly being scolded by his wife for their monetary difiiculties. In addition to all this, he was continually tormented by his students, the natural object of all our practical jokes. How- ever, he was a sincerely religious man, and man- aged to instill within us a great love for G-d and his Torah, without our even realizing it.

We were not yet old enough to learn Chumash, and so we each re- peated the many prayers in praise of the Lord. Being youngsters, we found this tedious after a while, and we began to yearn for play outdoors. It was about one hour before lunch, and Reb Sam- son began reading the Shmone Esre. We were ex- pected to follow in our prayer books. Reb Samson started. Blessed art thou, O Lord our G-d and G-d of our fathers, G-d of Abraham . . . Suddenly we heard a great deal of noise. The school was situated just two small blocks from the market place. and we could hear the crashing of glass very distinctly, coupled with the sound of loud and raucous Polish voices. Screams rent the air, and the sound of running feet came to my ears. It was a pogrom! I wanted to cry, to run home. but somehow I sat still in stark terror. And then I looked at Reb Samson, for it suddenly occurred to me that despite all the bedlam he had never once stopped reading from the siddur. He sat erect and recited in a clear, firm voice. although his face was extremely pale. I began to listen and heard. O King. Helper, Saviour, and Shield. Blessed art Thou, O Lord, the Shield of Abraham. He told us to repeat what he had read, and we did so in unison. We found strength in those words which caused us to forget our fears, and our prayers drowned out the voices of the drunken peasants. Reb Samson led us until evening when the assail- ants finally left. Six months later my family set out for America. Many years have elapsed since that eventful Pass- over day in the little European town. In the course of my work I have had occasion to meet many brave and strong men. However. as long as I live I shall never forget my rebbi in the cheder, the strongest and bravest of them all-a veritable Samson. MANQS UTUSFIN S one nears full maturity, he reflects upon his past and looks toward his future. In doing so, he finds before him a very basic question, which concerns him to the extent of his maturity. That question is: What is manls purpose in life? By no means can such a question be briefly an- swered. For the purpose and essence of life is in the Torah, the vast amount of Jewish learning which finds its way back through the ages on the chain of the Masorah, to the revelation on Mt. Sinai. However, based upon what I have learned. seen, studied, and understood, in the world about me, I make a humble attempt to briefly record what I find in my heart. An individual may feel that pleasure and enjoy- ment is his sole object in life. To gain that end he must naturally survive. And he works for that sur- vival, and for that of his family, perhaps. His pleas- ure in life is present in the form of anxiousness before its fulfillment, enjoyment during its fulfill- ment, and fading memories after its fulfillment. He meets his death accompanied by fading mem- ories alone. He has attained no lasting value in life. His death has but deprived him of transient satisfaction. And what is more futile? One who finds life's purpose religiously, in G-d, has reason in living and reason in wanting to live. And when he passes on he finds happiness, and yields to his loved ones consolation and encour- agement. He lives guided by the Torah, and love and awe for the Almighty. He lives guided by avoda, by rfilla, by service, by praises for, and supplications to the Almighty. He lives guided by gmillus hasa- dim, by kindliness, by the practice of charity to- by MARTIN GORDON ward his fellow beings, the creations of the Al- mighty. He too enjoys the common things that G-d cre- ated for man's use. But in these everyday experi- ences, in business or in pleasure, he aims at an eternal goal. He lives a chaye olam, rather than a chaye shaa, and finds his greatest pleasure, a last- ing pleasure, in the fervent study of the Torah, and in the love and devotion to the Holy One Blessed Be He, exhibited in the earnestness with which he performs G-d's mitsvos. The goal he aims for in life is eternal, not mo- mentary. He aims at bettering himself spiritually, so that rather than fading memories and a crude soul his total accomplishment at death, lasting values, and a perfected soul more sanctified than at birth are attained. He realizes that a materialist- ically successful man who does not fear G-d is, as David recorded in the Psalms, like the beasts that perish. He understands that his intelligence alone distinguishes him from the animal, and that G-d created him Hbut little lower than the angels. And he uses this intelligence and understanding to bring himself closer to G-d who put him on this earth, closer to G-d who records his every action on this earth, closer to G-d who will remove him from this earth. and before whom he is destined to account for his every action. And while he serves the Almighty daily, he prays, MO save me for thy mercy's sake. For in death there is no remembrance of thee. In the grave, who shall give thanks unto thee?,' And yet, when his time to depart does arrive, and he meets his creator whom he served, he finds his reward for a righteous, Torah-true life in this world - eternal peace and happiness in the next. Z6 IQOQ F s t emeaaima 4 , 1650: LN QI Q, by JOSEPH BAKAL N disgust. I fiung my pen down and angrily shut my writing pad. I-Iastily, I went to bed. It was late at night. That was the nth time I had tried vainly to compose some literary work worthy of submission to my graduate journal. As I unsuccessfully tried to fall asleep that night. a whole stream of regretful and frustrated thoughts welled up in my mind. I attempted to analyze scientifically the causes for my inability to write anything worthwhile. I thought my failure was possibly due to the fact that since by nature I am a perfectionist. I had been and was trying too hard to be tops. In addi- tion to that. this was my first real experience with an attempt at creative writing. In my school career practically all the writing I had done had been of the factual or critical variety. This first real fiing at creative composition was indeed a new and difii- cult thing. Another reason for my apparent failure was that the subject matter I could write about was severely restricted because of my limited experi- ence and education. I was also greatly hampered by my highly imperfect technical skill. As I turned over these reasons-or excuses if you wish-in my mind, the thought occurred to me that the same set of difficulties. imperfections and handicaps confronted the other fellows in the school who had succeeded in submitting material for consideration for possible inclusion in the grad- uate annual. This single thought or truth filled me with the feeling that I was probably rationalizing too much and writing too little. With renewed firmness of purpose I decided I would again strive to write something of value. With this thought and convic- tion I gradually fell asleep. The next days were filled with many hours of searching my brain. environment. and books for possible things to write about. However. as the days slowly crept by and the deadline for submit- ting manuscripts drew closer. I became convinced that all I could ever write was a confession of my failure at creative writing. vfejj is 51 66 HMUEL, it looks peaceful out there. Yes Dan. too peaceful. The two men lay sprawled behind a rock barrier, and looked over the muzzle of their machine gun at the barren ground before them. On their uni- forms were the insignia of the Israeli army. Turning over on his back, Shmuel stared with dark sunken eyes at the blue cloudless sky. A thin wind whis- pered along the ground swirling up sand and stones and spraying them around his feet. Placing his sun- burned hand in the sand Shmuel scooped up a handful and let it sift through his lingers. Dan, how long have we been fighting? Since the beginning of time, Shmuel, came the reply. No, I mean now, Dan. A year or two, why? Oh, I was just thinking. Dan, with one hand on the stock of his gun, glanced back at his friend. Getting tired, Shmuel? Shmuel swung around and looked deep into Dan's eyes. Aren't you . . . aren't you tired of fighting? Wouldn't you like to be back in Ramat-Gan work- ing in the fields instead of lying in this cold sand waiting for the Arabs to come so we can kill them? Yes Shmuel, I'm tired, but being tired is not the whole thing. Think back, Shmuel, think of the people who wandered in the desert for forty years, think of the people who fought and starved in strange lands. They were tired too, Shmuel, but they didn't stop. They fought and died so that we could live in peace, now we must fight so our children can live in peace. Peace, scorned Shmuel. How can we live in peace when our enemies burden us with war? Dan, these people we fight are greedy, yet we must fight them. But we are so small and insignificant com- pared to some of the enemy countries. And help, why should anyone want to help us? Jews? they'd rather spit first. aizfh 5 f'Shmuel . . . Shmuel. don't be so bitter. Remem- ber what the Rabbi said yesterday when he came to visit us? He said that we're strong, strong in soul, strong in religion, strong in hope. Shmuel, we have a spirit to fight with, and a land to fight for. We know we must win, we believe we will win. Belief and hope do not kill Arabsf' No Shmuel, it does not kill Arabs, but it builds Jews. It builds a strong land. It builds something finer than hate-love. Shmuel thought. He thought of Hannah with the blue eyes whom he had met before the war. He loved Hannah, and someday hoped to marry her. But now he must fight, he must not be tired. He thought of what Dan had said. Suddenly, Shmuel felt encouraged, fresh, as though something fine had swept through his body. Turning over on his stomach he smiled and joined his friend watching the barren land before them. In the barracks the two friends, getting dressed, talked over their plans for leave. Where are you going, Dan? Oh, to see my mother and sister. Arenlt you going home? Well yes, but I want to see Hannah first . . . and . . . ask her to marry me? But . . . Shmuel, I thought you were going to wait until after the war? Standing, Shmuel walked over to the shattered window and looked out. Dan, do you think I'm wrong in asking her now? IGIIT ROBERT WEBER I donlt know, Shmuel. It does make it tough on her now. I know, Dan, but . . If you can't wait, I guess. . . it's up to her. That afternoon the two friends parted. Dan headed for Ramat-Gan and Shmuel for Hannah, who served as a nurse in a hospital in S'fad. bk :lf IF At the desk, they told Shmuel that Hannah would be off in an hour, so he went out and strolled around the streets. It was a small town, crowded and dirty. My G-d, whispered Shmuel, will we ever be able to clean this up, so that we can eat and live in clean houses and not be afraid? He stopped off at a book store and bought some back newspapers. Strolling through the town the helplessness hit him with the smell of decay. When he returned to the hospital, his heart was filled with misery and the feeling of defeat. But when he saw Hannah coming down the steps he felt good again. Her presence was like that of a fresh flower in a garden of weeds. Hello Shmuel. Her voice was soft and sweet. Hello Hannah, you're looking good. Thank you, Shmuel, but my hair is in a mess. Clasping hands, the two walked toward Han- nah's home on the other side of town. I've missed you Shmuel. I've missed you too Hannah, very much. An old woman passing by smiled warmly and blessed G-d and life. The chirp of little insects sprang from the dark- ness as the two Hgures sat together on the porch. Hannah stared at the man she loved and knew what she had to say. Shmuel, I love you . . . I love you very much. l'd be very proud to be your wife. But our lives are too important to our land now. Getting married will take our minds away from our work. They need all the nurses they can get and we work some- times twenty-four hours a day. Oh don't you see darling, there are so many of them and so few of us. Only if we give our soul and spirit to our cause can we win. Then my dear, we can think of our- selves. Shmuel turned to Hannah to speak, but the words never came. They sat together in silence. DF lk lk Shmuel,,' came the call from across the hall. Shmuel turned and saw his friend Dan running toward him. How's Hannah? Did you ask her? Did she accept? She's fine, and she accepted. We're getting mar- ried the day after we beat the Arabs. Hello Dan. . .you look good. . . how's Shmuel? . . .good, he's a good boy. . .poor Noah. . . how's the food Dan? . . . do you get enough to eat? . . . Leah is fine . . . she's working in the plant . . . she's been seeing that young Aaron . -. . he's a Hier in the air force . . . Oh dear, so many good boys are fighting . . . how long can you stay? only two days? . . . it's such a short time, Dan . . . I prayed so much that the fighting wouldn't come, but . . . Oh Dan, my son . . . G-d bless you . . . be careful Dan,Dan...Dan...Dan,myson...Dan... Mother . . . mother . . . mom . . l ! ! Shmuel awoke with a start and stared at his friend. Sweat poured down Danfs face and his hands went to his head. Dan, what's the matter? Matter? nothing, nothing Shmuel . . . just a dream. Shmuel shrugged his shoulders and turned over, but Dan's white face remained in his thoughts. It was the next afternoon that the news came. Dan was away when the messenger came to their position. He asked for Dan and when Shmuel told him that Dan would be back soon. the messenger settled back to wait. Is it important? Very. Can't you tell me? Sorry, but it's personal. Shmuel looked at the messenger. The man's face was white and nervous. What's the matter? Can't you tell me? I'm his friend. lt's bad news. How bad? f'Well . . . it's about his mother, she . . A voice broke through the nervous stillness. Whose mother? Both men turned at the voice. Dan walked over to his friend and glanced at the messenger. Are you Dan Sherberg? Yes. why? l have a message for you. The messenger handed a slip of paper to Dan, then turned and walked away. Shmuel watched his friend's face turn white as he read the note. My mother's sick, Shmuel, I've got to go to her? Dropping the note, Dan ran off toward head- quarters. Dan stood over his mother's bed and looked at the small white figure. The cold truth hit him and sent his mind falling into a backness of grief and despair. He had come too late. Later, with the night air blowing in his face, Dan remembered his dream and looked up into the black sky. Leah would be all alone on the farm. He would have to leave the army . . . Dan . . . The voice was sad and yet full of love and understanding, and the hand was warm. His sister touched his shoulder. Turning, Dan finally let out his emotions and he fell against her, his sobs com- ing from his great anxiety. After a while he straight- ened up. I'm acting like a child, Leah. No Dan, you're acting like a man who has just lost his mother. I cried too, Dan, but we must not forget our responsibilities. She has given us her life. Now we must continue on as she would have us do. What about the farm? I'Il get somebody to help me, Dan. You must stay in the army. Her soothing voice quieted his fears and he felt strong again. Arm in arm, sister and brother walked into the night. its :lf fl! Shmuel. when he heard the news, did not expect to see his friend back so soon. Yet here they were, sprawled among the rocks behind their machine gun. His friend had little to say, and Shmuel felt that he knew why Dan was here. He smiled and felt good that he was alive. and even more that he was a Jew. lf k The two figures lay motionless behind their gun. Shmuel snored lightly as Dan sighed and stared into the darkness. Behind them, unseen and un- heard, a hidden figure crawled up through the rocks. Behind him another, and another. and an- other. In their eyes hate, in their hands arms from an alien country. PF :If :lf The officer climbed up the rock barrier as the rising sun disappeared behind the clouds. The last posts had reported ritie shots during the night but nobody could confirm them. The oliicer stopped. No voice challenged him. Probably asleep, he thought. Casually, the officer stepped up, then stopped. His composure was lost, and in its place came a look of horror. Running over to the sprawled figures he bent down. The blood had stopped pouring but the sight sickened him. Both were shot through the back. They hadn't had a chance. The ofiicer stood up and steadied himself against a tree. After the two bodies were carried away. a short stocky man with the mark of a captain walked out to the edge oi' the rocks and stopped. He looked at the two new men and then at the sky. G-d. I know what must happen must happen. Our lives are in your hands. Those two soldiers we just carried away were two of the finest. They both have families and I regret deeply having to tell them. Is this the price of faith? Must brave men die? Must we fight on hopelessly? Forgive me . . . I am just an old man who has seen too much grief. You are one. and we are fighting with one heart and one mind. I come to you to ask. Will many more brave men die? The grey sky stared at the short man and a cool wind whipped through his open jacket. We believe this. that through our faith we will win. Protect our men Almighty. they are your chil- dren and now they look up to you for guidance, Suddenly a break appeared in the clouds. A ray of sunshine shone down upon the barren rocks. The ray slanted down upon him and the short man smiled. Turning. he walked away. his head high. his heart full with the joy of religion and faith. '1 ix .

You haven't? Well, then, let me tell you about it. It all centers around the strange disappearance of Samuel Kan, a freshman at Yeshiva University. Sam was a friendly fellow. He wasn't a poor stu- dent, but he didn't appear to be a genius either. He was just average, one whom you normally wouldn't give a second thought to. The only odd thing about him was that never once during his entire stay at Yeshiva University did he take ill. He never even suffered from a toothache or a cold. One day the janitor saw him walking into the physics lab after school hours. There was nothing unusual about this, as Sam occasionally did some lab work at night. Suddenly, however, there was a bright flash of light that almost blinded the janitor. He raced towards the laboratory, thinking that Sam had accidentally set off an explosion. When he reached there he found that no explosion had taken place, but the lab was empty. All that he found was a pile of fused and twisted electronic equip- ment, and an envelope made of some strange plas- tic-like material. There wasn't a trace of Sam. The janitor brought the envelope to the dean, and what was found in it was surprising to say the least! In the envelope was a letter in Sam Kan's neat, meticulous handwriting, written upon a sheet of that strange plastic material. Here is what the letter said: To whom it may concern: By the time you read this you will be engaged in a futile attempt to explain my disappearance. I am writing this explanation to save you the trou- ble my disappearance would no doubt cause. You will not find me, for I have returned to my own era, two hundred years in the future. Yes. two hundred years in the future. NI returned to your time in a machine which APPEARANCE was developed about five years ago Cmy time-in 2151 J. My purpose was to make a one year study of the culture and social institutions of your period, for my thesis in social anthropology at the univer- sity I attend here. 'I find that time has wrought great changes in 200 years. The holocaust of an atomic war which you so fear was avoided, largely because of that fear. Fear of the Hydrogen Bomb, and the re- placement of automobiles by helicopters for per- sonal transportation, has led to the dispersal of residential areas away from the cities, throughout the countryside, each family living several miles from the next. Only the industries and the schools have remained concentrated in the deserted cities. and these have gone underground, the workers and students commuting from their homes by helicop- ter. The same happened in Russia, with the result that the Communist dictatorship fell apart, for a dictatorial form of government can be maintained only when the population is concentrated in cities where it can be kept under constant surveillance. Freed from the threat of war, science, which had heretofore been devoted to finding ways to destroy man has turned to his betterment. Most diseases have been conquered. among them the omnipresent common cold. When people became accustomed to living so by MELVIN ZWILLENBERG far apart, the population increased and began to cause what was considered unbearable crowd- ing. The answer came in l978. when the first manned rocket reached the moon. Within thirty years Mars and Venus were also reached. By this time there was already a thriving colony on the Earth's satellite. Within a century the Moon's surface was dotted with the hermetically sealed domes of numerous colonies. As the population grew, many terrestrial uni- versities established branches there. Among them was Yeshiva University, whose lunar branch which I attended was established in 2130. Although time has changed both the curricu- lum and the teaching methods to some extent. you would still recognize them. The burden of studies on the students has been reduced by the 'Sleep- learnerf a rudimentary version of which was ex- perimented with as far back as 1955. This machine enables students to learn as they sleep. with perfect recall. However. it was found that for Torah and Talmudic subjects. the machine does not work. A student may memorize a lesson. but he misses most of the liner meanings and inspirational quali- ties of the Torah. The 'Sleeplearnerf therefore. is used only for secular studies such as History. Advanced Mathematics. Nuclear Physics and many other subjects. while for Yeshiva studies. the same methods that have been used for thousands of years are maintained. At Yeshiva University's lunar branch the stu- dents spend five hours, from 8:00 L.S.T. to 13:00 studying Talmud. CThe twenty-four hour clock is employedj From 14:00 to 19:00 they work in the university's hydroponics farm, its nuclear reactor, or on laboratory work. All the other subjects are studied as they sleep, through the 'Sleeplearnerf When I volunteered to spend a year in your era to prepare my thesis in anthropology, I re- ceived an intensive course in the manners, speech and customs of your time. From our museum a sufficient amount of your currency was obtained to pay my expenses. Records were prepared which would ensure my admission to your school. 'LI boarded a rocket that took me from the moon to the area near what used to be New York City. There I set up the machine that projected me to your era. Since the machine itself does not travel through time, I had to build another one here for my return. Since I had to use imperfect parts it will fuse unrecognizably after I use it. This week I finished my work here, and so am returning to my own era. Farewellf' Samuel Kan Well, you probably think this is all a hoax. So did the police. But when they tried to trace the home address given on Kan's records, they found that nobody of his description had ever lived there. Nobody knows for sure where he came from, and nobody knows for sure where he has gone. It seems that he simply appeared out of nowhere and vanished into nowhere. What really happened? Was this a well planned hoax, or is it that truth is often stranger than fiction? What do you think? W 000 A' I 1- :J-l V . , -V. UCI . M M OKI UM ' 'ima mme' 4-if Gxbqiuzw N by MORTON FREIMAN ELVIN Chelydra Serpentina arrived at ' B.T.A. on May 2. 1955. Despite his shy- ness he gained the friendship of both students and faculty. A chopped egg sandwich, apple, and a chocolate bar were all part of his varied diet. I requested that if Melvin should leave us before the summer, arrangements be made that his body be willed to me. And so it was. One morning late in May I approached the lab closet with caution. Melvin was residing there for the weekend. I could almost see his snapping jaws waiting for me with a smile. But a smile it wasn't, not evcn a grin. Melvin Chelydra Serpentina was dead! Sadly, I took the trough, aluminum foil, and alcohol which were very close by and made a most interesting package marked, Not to be opened till after Regents. And it wasn't. Summer vacation finally arrived. Jay Kloner helped me with the dissection that Hrst day. Gently the aluminum foil was removed from Melvin's motionless body, which I hadn't seen for a month. He appeared the same but smelled quite differ- ently. Hot and muggy air made matters even worse. The first problem facing us was where to start cutting. After a careful inspection of Melvin's body a decision was made to remove his lower plate first. The end of the scalpel was lost inside Melvin's body in an attempt to work from the inside out. Rabbi Zuroif appeared just then for a brief visit. Ushers were needed for graduation the coming evening. We seemed to be good prospects but I didn't think I could deodorize by nightfall. Melvin was difficult to get along with. Scalpels. tweezers and other instruments were useless in his case. Recalling my mother's excellent way of dis- secting a chicken, I grasped Melvin's head while Jay grasped his shell. On the count of three the head bone was disconnected from the neck bone and the neck bone disconnected from the shoulder bone. In the same way all major parts were dis- connected from each other. Work progressed the next few days at my home. Gradually all meat particles were removed from the bones, which numbered approximately 200. It is a simple task to dissect an animal as long as his eyes are closed. But when the skin was removed from Melvin's head I felt a little uneasy. No matter where I moved he kept looking at me. That wouldn't have been so strange if I were not holding the rest of his body at the other end of the table. Assembling the bones was difficult. A manual was lacking and Melvin was put together with logic and Duco Cement. He hung for days on the clothes line over the bathtub. There I worked on Melvin from the bottom to keep him in a standing position. July 4. 1955. was a memorable day. Melvin was together again. He was suffering. however. from a deficiency of skin. His companionship through- out the summer was indeed a pleasure. On September 12. l955. Melvin Chelydra Ser- pentina arrived once again at B.T..-X.. only this time there were no egg sandwiches for him. or water to swim in. He was hardly recognized by his friends who had known him so well. Melvin greeted them with a smile and he smiles to this day in the tomb which was so neatly prepared for his final resting place in the hallway of Brooklyn Talmudical Academy. HE sun was going down. That was the first thought he had. He knew the sun was going down. Knew it beyond a shadow of a doubt because there was a tree next to where he was lying on the field, and when he turned his head he saw its shadow. A long shadow, many times longer than the tree itself. The kind of shadow cast when the day is almost over. It was evening then, and he was in Israel. That was something else he knew. It was important that he was in Israel, and even more important was the fact that he knew. But he couldn't remember why. He tried hard. He tried harder than he had ever tried to do any- thing before. And all to no avail. He kept on searching his mind, trying to remember-until the darkness came again . . . A thought. From the inky blackness that was his mind. A selhsh thought. He knew that the moment it came to him. But he couldn't help him- self, for it was the only thought he had. - Q -ft. . . .sa A 1 . ,Q A . 'Ii i 'Y , t 1 , N : JL A pain.

But he shouldn't be thinking about such things when there were the others to worry about . . . Another thought. Sharp. Clear. There had been other men. He didn't know what they had been doing, why he had been with them, but he knew there had been others. Were they also hurt? A third thought, now. He had opened his eyes, and he was looking toward what must have been the west. Toward the setting sun. It was red. A glorious red that stained the clouds in the western sky, that colored the very earth he waslying on and stole some of the green from the leaves of the tree near him. A red so beautiful that he could not bear it. Something else now, too. He first saw it when he tried to pick himself up to see better. It was on his sleeve, on his left arm, the one that hurt so much. A stain. A red stain. by MORRIS GOLDBERG LUT Blood? Yes, blood. Suddenly, now, in a fiash, it was all clear. It came in a torrential fiood of memories. Memories of sights, sounds, feelings. He remem- bered now. Remembered a battle. Yes, it was important that he was in Israel. For he was a chaver of a border kibbutz. His was one of the smallest of those cooperatives unique in the modern State of Israel, more of a military installa- tion than a farm. But they had been farming there. And then . . . the surprise attack. That was what embittered him most even now in the deserted battlefield . . . the surprise. He had gone to sleep the night before, not really feeling safe, but at the same time not worrying about the possibility of attack. He had learned to live with danger. He just didn't think about it. It had probably been about three or four o'clock in the morning when the shots woke him up. There had been no warning. The Arabs always seemed to attack in the dead of night, and always without warning. His fellow chaverim didn't even have time to call him before he was on the field with a gun, fighting, lashing out with all his might at the Arab raiders. The sun had been up for a few hours when the shell exploded a few feet from where he was stand- ing. He had been one of the last ones hit. That probably explained why he had not been taken from the field. And now the sun was setting. For some crazy reason his past life went through his mind. the life he had given up to join the kibbutz. He had come from the United States, and he could not really say he was sorry that he had given up his good life to join the other chaverim. He had done it for an ideal. Suddenly, again, a calm came over him. He knew now that the end was near. He did have time for another thought. however. before he slipped into the oblivion from which he would have to worry no more about the sun. or the earth, or the people on it who felt that they had nothing better to do than hate their neighbors. Time for a single thought. A final important thought. Yes, the sun was going down. But it would come up again. U' sf J X-'L at EBRUARY 27, 1958, was the day it all began. Why? No one really knew. Several explana- tions were put forward, the most logical being the explosion of the super H-Bomb the day before. Its rays must have activated some trigger in the brain. The world went to sleep babies and woke up adolescents-one million years of evolution in one night, teleportation and telekinesis were achieved. But few realized the danger of such a swift change, overnight the culmination of improvements in transportation were reached. Anyone could go anywhere instantly. The earth was the size of a wish. An immense crime wave shattered the world. Americans stole British treasures, French stole Australian treasures. But what could be done? All stocks connected with transportation were immediately sold, as were all others. The stock market crashed. But no one cared. What you wanted you took. Three-fourths of the world's politicians were assassinated overnight. Those who weren't were the dictators, whose whereabouts no one knew. Chaos reigned supreme. The United States was flooded with refugees i by ROBERT GOLDBERG from all over the world. She was invaded by the world's only completely mobile army, and World War III was begun. A new science of strategy had to be developed, for in this war, with all points vulnerable, there were no battle lines. Overnight, the war-making capacity of the world was de- stroyed. The most potent weapon on each side was secrecy. The corps dielite were the security police. This was a merciless war, no prisoners were taken. The war was a stalemate with but the world a loser. The war ended three years, eleven months, and nine days after it had begun. The world was dead. is if 22 That was a fine composition, Bobby, but you left out the most important part. Where did we come from? lim sorry, Miss Summers. But gee, I thought everybody knows about the plants and factories the new world set up all over the universe. That's all right, Bobby, but you also forgot to date it properly. It should be 1962 A.E. Not just 1962. A.E., you know, After Earth. O. K., Miss Summers, I won't forget next time.
