Fellow Students: Together with this Elchanite, I wish to present to you the lessons I have learned during my term of office. If I have been unable to carry out the original plans of the '45 Elchanite as announced previously in the school, it is be- cause they were made with the expectation of the usual amount of student help and cooperation. This aid, however, did not materialize, for I can count on my fingers the few students who took an active interest in the Elchanite. Furthermore, these few brought with them much good-will but not the slightest amount of knowledge or experience in preparing a school publication. I do not make these statements as an apology or excuse for any shortcomings of this magazine. Rather, I state them to set up a goal for students of Talmudical Academy which, if at- tained, will assure them of good Elchanites in years to come. First, an increase, or rather, a birth of school spirit must take place. Perhaps if student leaders and Administration conducted an extensive campaign with all the means at their command instead of standing by idly and be-wailing little participation in student activities, some progress could be made along this line. Secondly, if future staffs are to consist of trained men, oppor- tunity must be provided and encouragement given to those who want to obtain a training in journalism which will ready them for a position on the staff of the Elchanite or of the Academy News. Talmudical Academy offers no facilities for the study of journalism at present. These suggestions have obtained value to me through bitter experience. To present the pleasant side of the picture, I must extend my thanks to the Administration for the free hand it has given me in the matter of contents and to those, students or others, who in any manner helped me. Finally, I want to eX- press my sincerest appreciation for the technical knowledge and Willingness to work which Stanley Wexler continually placed at my disposal.

But peace has not yet come to more than a million homeless Jews in devastated Eur- ope. These Jews lack the basic necessities of life - - food, clothing and shelter - - as well as the most elementary political rights. Afraid to return home because anti-Semi- tism is still rampant in their native lands, in-ost of them huddle in the tr displaced persons camps and sub- sist on meager allotments from Al- lied and Jewish relief agencies. Their suffering is unparalleled by any other victims of this war - torn world ........ VVe who edit this Elchanite had hoped to revert to peacetime format as soon as the war was over. It did not take us long to change our minds. We could not claim in the face of repeated reports of starvation a.nd renewed pogroms that the lot of the Jews had improved in the days after V-J day. Indeed, we would have felt very guilty if we had returned to the business-as-usual stages and put out a high-toned, four color Q They sit on piles of dust and debris Elehanite with a superabundance of pictures. Instead, we have pulm- lished a simple, but serious, Elehanite, which, alth-ough not lacking in features or humor, clearly shows that we are fully aware of the grim problems and responsibilities that now confront every .Iew. lt is our hope that the readers of the magazine will in no way find it out of lunrm- ony with the bitter events of present times. CWe can also proudly say that the Editors at no time let the Elchanite campaign interfere with any other worthwhile campaign, whether it was directly for the war effort or for emergency relief of any sort ..... H We now look forward to a new world, a world wherein the .lewi-ln dream of an independent commonwealth will become a reality, a world where free immigration will become the byword and Democracy the password. We l-ook fO-l'WEl1'Cl to this world with the sincere determination to make it a dream come true: we look, without cynicism, but with the realization ot our inability to contribute much to make the dream come true. Though at pres- ent youthful idealism is our strong- est weapon, we intend to use it, gradually strengthened by experi- ence, to make sure that this book of high school memories will be the last to be published in times of stress and insecurity.

Yes! lVha.t is your purpose, your aim, your guide in your current activities?', Is the Yeshiva to be larger than X. Y. Il. or richer than Columbia? Is it to be a Jewish medical school or is it to be an institution for higher mathe- matics? To what extent shall Orthodoxy be adapted, comprised with and surrendered? These considerations are the music to which the mad cycle of dinners, campaigns and dinners is danced. We, the Editors, speaking for ourselves and certain that we voice the sentiments of our fellow students, ask our Board of Directors: Are you forgetting the teachings and the spirit of Rabbi Isaac Elcha- nan? Dead these fifty years, his spirit. has continued strong enough these many years to guide us. Can it not lead us in our further growth as it The Yeshiva. is undergoing which our Board of Directors is has in our beginnings?'5 We dedicate this Elchanite to the memory of Rabbi Isaac Elchanan and to the Board of Directors with the hope that this will make the bond between them more secure in the trying years ahead.

Inevitably, a.s this community grew and expanded in various directions and various modes of religious thought, it approached a crisis out of which a. religious or nonreligious path for the American Jew to follow would be determined. The war, with its ruthless extermination of European Jewry, has hastened this crisis until we may seo it before our very eyes. Orthodoxy is woefully unprepared to wage battle for the ascendancy of American Jewish thought. It may well be defeated. Perhaps the situation may be more clearly stated by an analogy. A child is born to a poverty stricken' mother. He is taken away at birth and- placed in a rich home, with money a.nd luxury at his disposal. But his mother still exerts a tremendous influence upon the youngster. She con- tinually sends messages guiding his actions and his mind. She visits him occasionally and explains to him the right paths a.nd ideas to follow. She teaches him love and respect. lt is through her that the child grows sp-iritf ually and morally. Suddenly, his mother is killed. He is left alone to fare for himself. He knows how to use his wealth very well. But his ideas, his mind and actions have all been under the ideals of his mother. Is he able bo follow and stumble in the paths she showed him? Or, as the years go by, will his remembrance and belief in his mother become but a fond memory and will he sway to whatever direction he chooses. If this youngster will begin to think and plan, begin to affirm his belief and his ideals, he may yet save himself and follow in his mother's footsteps. Orthodox American Jewry is that child! Born of European Jewry which sent its children over as immigrants, he soon found America a land of plenty. As time went on and wave after wave of immigrants reached these shores, the sand of American Orthodox Jewry was wet again and again with new adherance and stores of knowledge. There was no fear as long as Orthodox Jews immigrated here, as long as they represented the spiritual messages and guidance from Europe, as long as the basis of Orthodoxy was there across the sea. 6 Now, that is over. The European mother is dead and there will never' be one like her. Wie are left to face for ourselves. And we are ill-prepared. YVe have depended for too long on European Jewry for new members for our congregation. We have looked too much to them for higher knowledge. As the orphan lacks the essentials of self-planning and progress, so we lack the necessary analyzation and methods to implant Orthodox Jewry forever in America. From what I hear and see, we are losing the battle. Knowledge be- comes more scarce and the basic bottom of our Jewish society is not only religious observances but the knowledge of the whys and wherefores of these observances. Too many seemingly Orthodox people consider it only as a front and something their parents taught them. European Judaism was an armed camp of Orthodoxy, armed, that is, with knowledge of its history and its Talmud. In America, we are but an ignorant people who do not even realize the extent of o-ur ignorance and the dangers it entails. The Jewish religion is curious in one respect, and perhaps in truth it is not so strange. The more we know, the more our belief and striving grow and we become better Jews. The less we know, the less we understand and the less we care. That is our danger. Wie have no content and it may de- stroy us. What then is the remedy? This question must remain. I myself can offer only these suggestions. It is clear that every Jew must support the basis of American Ortho, doxy, the Yeshivos. To the older members of the American Jewish com- munity I can say: Support Yeshivos with money and by sending your children there. To the Jewish youth: G0 to the Yeshiva and gain an ink- ling of your religion. Yeshiva. students: Study industriously and prepare for aid to the American Jewish community. Let your actions always re- flect good on the Yeshiva. For out of Yeshivos come those who must lead, teach and guide the congregations of America. Out of the Yeshivos come those balabati-my who are willing to cooperate and understand the rabbi who will represent their congregations. Secondly, support your Talmud Torahs. Organize them on the most efficient basis. Include those ideas which will attract the youth. and will indoctrinate them with the necessary beliefs and fundamentals of religion. Every child must go to a Talmud Torah at least. An intensive campaign must be started to maintain boys and girls in Hebrew schools for many years after their thirteenth and twelfth birthday. You must stress Hebrew and lengthen hours. Cultivate an active interest in the Jewish field of studies. The majority of students, who usually care, can do with some extra hours of study. 7 Finally, build up the congregation. Begin extensive campaigns if you wish to keep the synagogues alive and kicking. Give the youth a chance to run services, make speeches, organize clubs and educational and social affairs. Begin Sh-miros-Slzabbos campaigns. Get older men and Women to come and especially beg and force them to send their children to ser- vices. Forgive mistakes and misunderstandings. Explain, rather than threaten. Hold various types of classes for youth, older men, and women. Print magazines and papers. Yvake up and work to preserve our Jewish way of life. But one thing will remain foremost in our mind. We are working to foster Orthodoxy, the belief in God and Torah, the belief in the ideals set forward for us by our European brethren. With that view in mind, our compromises and innova.tions will be made in an Orthodox fashion, and Will further Orthodox traditions. ev ight by Solomon Katz How bewitching is the magic secrecy of night, The whisper of its mysterious power and might. Be parted thou glare of day with thy gaiety and bright light, For the sweet compulsions and bewilderment of night. Day is but a cheating gleam, Night a strange fascinating dream. Day, a mild penetrable sight, Night, a vast shadow full of stealth and flight. Bored am I by the garish and gaudy day, And long for the passionate silence of the night - mystic and grey. 8 The Great Expertnratinn SCHMEIL - ZEv1 was only 18, but he had earned for himself the reputa- tion of being the village jokester. And so, when Schmeil's wedding to Shari was announced, every soul in the entire village turned out in antici- pation of an hilarious and joyous time. To add to the great .s-itmcha, it was also rumored that the Emperor was nearby and that he might come and give the young couple some sort of a gift. Amidst the frolicking' gaiety, Yosef, Shari's former suitor, stepped up with a mug brimming over with wine. Come, Schmeil, drink! Show everybody you're a man. Empty the mug. Yosef's eyes gleamed mischievously and Schmeil unsuspectingly lifted the mug and drank it down in long groughts. Now for some toasts. Chosan Schmeil, welll drink some toasts. Here's to your bea.utiful wifef' Schmeil downed the wine as vigorously as before. Here's to your in-laws. May they .... And down poured the intoxicating drink. To your beloved parents. Again Schmeil drank. He was gay and laughing loudly. Shari tugged at his shirtsleeve. Look! , cried Yosef. She is trying to show who of the two will wear the plants. Come, Schmeil, yo-uire a man. Aren't you?. Here's to our wonderful villagef' Yes, I'm a man. Yes, to our village. The brimming mug was soon empty. To our country. Yes, to our country, Schmeil shouted thickly as he drank once more. To the Emperor. No, not to the Emperor. I'm a m-an. I spit on the Emperor. And Schmeil spat with gusto. You don't mean that? Why! you're just a little ...... i' I do mean it. I'm a man and I spit on the Emperorf' And again he spat. A hush fell on the assemblage. The villagers slowly drifted away. The wedding was over. -X' -X' 91- Two days later, the Emperor sent his guards to take Sc-hmeil away. Somehow he had found out. There was great mourning in the village. Many tried to console Schmeil's parents and' Shari, but in vain. Then someone spied ai lonely figure approaching the village. Schmeil had returned. He was uncombed and dissheveledg his fa.ce was drawn and his eyes were staring. The crowd opened to let the man pass. Slowly they followed him to his house. There was a deadly silence. No one spoke. Then Shari, unable to stand it any longer, whispered hoarse-ly, Schr11eil, what did he do to you? Two large tears rolled down his face. He - - he - - he spat back at me! by Harry Pinvh 9 The other Max Frankel She stood still for a minute, her eyes staring without seeing at the fertile plain, her hair streaming in the breeze, her hands hanging limply at her sides. She stood there -L a Jewish woman. In one of her ha.nds, those strong hands which had done more than their share in building the Yishuv, in creating a healthy, thriving community, she clutched the little yellow slip of paper, a postal card from a former neighbor in the little Polish town in which she had spent the major part of her life. This morning, as on eve-ry o-ther morning of the last few years, she had gone out with the other women of the settlement to work on the fields. As she laid her bundles of grain on the wagon a warm feeling had surged through her toiling body. Oh, it felt good to ga.ther the fruits of the yearis hard la-bor in the land of the fathers. It gratified her to know that, per- haps cenituries ago, on the same spot on which she was standing Father Abraham might have pitched his tent, or Isaac have gazed over the rolling plain to the mountains hidden in a blue haze far to the north. Or perhaps here Jacob had assembled his twelve sons to instruct them to obey the laws of the living G -'d. She had felt joy in working in the invigorating, fresh air under the smiling, clear blue sky. She had thought that she had at long last found happiness - enduring happiness, free from worries, free from troubles . . . true contentment . . . until a few minutes ago. A few minutes ago . . . S-hmuel had come in with the mail from the nearest town, some miles away. She had seen him striding across the fields, a hulk of a man, his fiery beard and barrel chest strongly contrasted by his gentle face and quiet demeanor. Shmuel, she had signalled to him from a distance, is there anything for me? In reply he had only waved the little yellow slip of paper in the air, a smile hovering a.round his lips. I hope itis good newsf' he cried, as she, driven by curiosity, ran to meet him. I hope it's good news. But it was bad news . . . As she read all color slowly left her cheeks, a pallor spread over her face, the joy faded from her eyes. Leah, he cried in alarm, what is it? What's wrong?,' She did not answer. Instead she handed him the cardre He understood. Her neighbor had informed her that out of the 400 Jewish inhabitants of their little town some thirty were left to eke out a meager existence, the rest had' been killed by the Nazis Not one menrber of her numerous family had lived to see the downfall of the brutal enemy. Not one - not even her Yankeleh . . . Her Yankeleh . . . apple of her eye . . . her pride and joy. Oh G - dl, G - df' the voice sounded hollow in her deep anguish, oh G - d how could you let this happen? Why . . why, oh Lord?,' But not a tear dripped from the fountains of her eyes. She was beyond tears. Staring without seeing at the beautiful plain, she felt neither the warmth of the dancing sunbeams nor the beauties of the rolling wheatland or the smiling skies. -Only deep within the recesses of her heart she felt al steady throbbing, 10 pounding, of all-consuming pain, of indescribable agony . . . The women gathered around her. What is wrong, Leah? Why don't you cry? . . . Do cry. It will do you goodf' Come Leah, let us go from the fields . . Go home and lie down and have a good cry. She was insensible to all that was happening around her. She heard neither the advice of her co-workers, nor their heart-rending sobs. With- out realizing that she was moving she was slowly led by her friends to her cabin, the card still clutched in her hand . . . She was completely si- lent. Not a groan, not a sob, not a sigh, not a single sound passed over her lips, her sensitive lips, so strongly etched in the marble of her face . . . Her mind was racing. Yankeleh. Yankeleh . . . Yankelehl' she thought over and over again. Yankeleh, darling of my heart, more precious than my life, why were you taken from me? The mother's mind spanned countries and oceans, it skipped back over the intervening years to that day when she had last seen her Yankeleh, her sturdy, strap-ping son . . . She had planned for a long time to emigrate to Palestine and had wanted him to come with her. He, however, refused to leave his friends and neighbors and finally convinced her that it was his duty to stay in Poland where he could in his small way help to undermine the Nazi structure from within. Besides,'l he told her in his hearty voice there are other people who need the immigration certificates in-ore than I do. Let them have my certificate, ni-other, I'll manage somehow. She gave in to Yankeleh, admiring without end his generosity and intrepidity . . . And so the day of their parting had arrived. Yankeleh had refused to come to the Railway station with his mother. Parting at a station where one could see the train rolling away into the world to be swallowed hy the horizon was too final and decisive for him. He said good-bye to her at the door of their little house, reassuring her that it would not be long when, G - d willing, they would be together again. She had leit him comforted and full of hope. Wlhen she stopped a few paces from the house to take a last look at the home in which she had spent so many happy hours, she saw Yankeleh leaning out of the window, waving to her, and shouting i'L'hit- raoth B'eretz Israelf' 9 She drove the thought from her mind. It was too painful. ller mind, in painting the scene with such precision and accuracy, had only given her heart an additional stab . . . But the th-oughts would not be banished. Over and over, faster and faster. the thoughts took hold of her wandering ntind. Her brain teemed with half-baked, inco-mplete ideas . . . lf only she knew where his body found eternal rest . . . If only she could have an idea of how the end came . . . And her family! What of her family? . . , G - d, the pain is too great, how can one mourn for a whole family at a time? . . She would have to sit shivah. How does one sit shivah for a. whole mishp-aeha? . . . The thoughts came and went. One. however, took strong hold of her mind. VVhere did Yankeleh find his eternal resting place? iYhere was his grave? And perhaps it was better that she should not know. for the knowledge would always keep the wound fresh .... 5 Ks if she could ever forget him! . . But then, how was she to place the matzewa, the tombstone Il on his grave, the tombstone which tradition had taught her should be put on the graves of the loved ones to perpetuate their memories? Was there to be nothing to keep alive the memory of her Yankeleh? A sudden resolution took form in the mind of the mother . . . The neighbors at long last were rewarded by seeing the blood return into the face of Leah. Her peut-up tears found vent. She was again their Leah, but infinitely sadder, seemingly years older . . . Her Yankeleh was gone. G - d giveth and G - d takethg blessed be His name. But there were still some thirty people living, people who undoubtedly wanted to come to Eretz. She would do what Yankeleh would want her to do. She would work day and night to see that the remnants of Israel should- find a home ready for them when they arrived in the land of their fathers. She would work for the Yishuv. She would help to build it into a strong, blooming, re- spected nation. She would make her work and her deeds Yankeleh's tomb- stoneg her actions his memorial . . . And she will. te! Mun und the Microbe -A Pessimistzb F antasy- BY ARTHUR RUSENFELD The microbe and the scientist Yvere walking hand in hand Among the dusty skeletons 'The time has comef' the microbe said For you to learn at last That your human race is very young, Of a once great reptile band. And hasn't long to last. Thus, arm in arm, they walked that day, Our advent on this earthly scene Until they came to a stand. Was much further in the past. :Before the dinosaur exhibit My ancient microbe ancestor In a great museum hall, YVas there on that fateful days 'Midst racks and heaps and piles of bones. When the last giant dinosaur And skeletons on the wall. hfet his fate - and passed away. Can you believef, the scientist said. Those reptiles lost their rule of Earth, That these beasts once ruled all? And now you men hold sway. 12 But many ages further back, When Earth was young and new, My first ancestor then was born, And grew, and split, and' grew - Until an army of my race Ruled Earth - as we've a right to do. We may have seemed to yield our throne To younger races. But we know That these new races will not last. Each one must some day go. And do you think, oh scientist, That for m-an 'twill not be so!', The human race, that man replied, 'Has more strength than all of these. Now some were killed by cold and frost, Still others, by disease. But our machines keep off these plagues. They'll not conquer us with ease! A little lump inside my head, A group of cells called 'brainf Keeps me from sharing their cruel fate, And saves me from their pain. You beasts are right. You've never lost But we shall win - we gain. We've gained this kingdom in our turn, But not merely to wait Until it is our turn to fall. VVe prepare before it's too late. We won't follow the dinosaur - WE WILL MASTER FATE!!! 'X' I 'lf A million years had passed. A man - - The last one of his race - - Sat musing on his unkind fate And on his own sad case. As he sat thus, a microbe came To that forsaken place. I know, it said, of what took place In that hall long ago, Vllhere man and microbe walked, talked And what they said you also know. I ask you now: can human pride Withstand fate's strongest blow? You are a fool, the man replied, To speak in such a way Wlhen you know what my race has done To your race in its day. We killed all those who barred our path VVhile we ALONE held sway. You must have slept through all this time Because you do not know, How in our glory, we alone lVere rulers - - all else had to go. How you survived I know not, but You are the sole remaining foe. Thus spoke the man - and with one blow He crushed that foe of men. But age had sapped his strength, and so He fell, and never rose again: But murmured this, before he died And passed beyond our mortal ken: That scientist of old was right: Man does win in the end. Wle may have fallen, like all else, But with us foe and friend Have also fallen. None remain For our throne to contend. IVe mastered Earth - - we ruled the world- And then we lost our throne. But we did not yield to some beast. IYe fell, and died, ALONE. I now die happy, knowing that Eartlfs history is forever done. lim ll by, glnmzph, 'yaahm In nineteen hundred and twenty three a fledgling T. A. was located on the East Side. In that year a smiling man of average height began teaching Latin in T. A. Dr. Benjamin D. Shapiro is still teaching T. A. students. Although he now confines his pedagogual efforts to the social sciences. Doc at one time taught not only Latin but also German in T. A. In the course of twenty two years he has put thousands of T. A. stu- dents through their social sciences' A B C. His students include many prominent Rabbis, members of the Institution's staffs, and a noted radio news commentator. It was Dr. Shapiro who also began, nurtur- ed and developed the Talmudical Academy Library. Indeed, if ever a histoiry of T. A. were written, Dr. Shapiro would occurtv a prominent place. Yet, few facts are known about the man Whom the students familiarly call Doc.,' It would be illuminating to discard conjecture temporarily and examine Dr. Shapiro's life and Works in an objective manner. Benjamin Shapiro traces his antecedents to Vilna Jewry. Born in a small inn on the outskirts of Vilna on April 2, 1895, Benjamin Shapiro spent his formative years in an atmosphere of economic stress. His father, a merchant, found the going tough. Mainly for this reason, the Shapirois emigrated to the United States in 1907, and settled in Utica, New York. Young Benjamin found the transition a difficult one. However, by 1915 he had so well succeeded in Americanizing himself, that he was at the head of the graduating class at the Utica Free Acad- emy. Meanwhile he found time to take in a little Judaica during a several months stay at Rabbi Jacob Joseph School. In 1919 Dr. Shap- iro graduated from Syracuse University. Here he had majored in His- tory walking off with top honors including a Phi Beta Kappa member- ship. For the next few years Dr. Shapiro divided his time between teaching fellowships and more intensive studies of history. Having received an M. A. at Syracuse and a one-year teaching fellowship at the University of Michigan, Dr. Shapiro decided to embark upon his Ph.D. thesis. He chose as his subject Congress of Paris-1856? This was the peace conference that ended the Crimean VVar. Flaunting convention, Shapiro decided to base his thesis upon a perusal of the original archives. He arrived in London, England, upon this idea of original on-the-spot research. He embarked upon his ll scheme by combing the British Museum for information, pausing mean- while to attend a seminar at the University of London. From there Dr. Shapiro went to Paris hoping to examine the French archives in the Bibliotheque Nationale. To his chagrin, he was informed that the archives were not so 1 open. Hampered thus by diplo- matic protocol Dr. Shapiro remain- ed nevertheless in Paris for two months pursuing his research. The last lap of his journey took Dr. Shapiro to Berlin where after six weeks of research at the Univer- sity he found his funds exhausted. This necessitated his immediate re- . turn to the United States. Soon af- .A ter his arrival Dr. Shapiro married Ellen Friedland. The press of re- sponsibility forced him to drop the Ph.D. thesis. In that same year, 1923, Dr. Shapiro began teaching in Talmudical Academy. His first pedagogual contacts with T. A. were brief since he only taught at T. A. during two or three afternoon periods. Later Shapiro abandoned some of his teaching commitments elsewhere and spent an entire six-period afternoon in T. A. Meanwhile Dr. Shapiro was teaching in the public school system. He taught almost every subject under the sun including English, History and Languages. In 1938 Dr. Shapiro was admitted to the bar. He had studied law at New York University during his spare time. Dr. Shapiro rarely makes court appearances due to his myriad teaching tasks. Rather he does the less glamorous tasks of pre- paring the necessary briefs. Incidentally, Benjamin Shapiro owes his appellation Doctor to his J. P. degree - - Doctor of Laws. Recently Dr. Shapiro was appointed Teacher-in-charge at the Evening School P. S. 157. This promotion was in recognition of the part Dr. Shapiro played in Americanizing the foreign born through comprehensive night school curricula. Earlier, Dr. Shapiro's book, The Adult Home Study Book had caused a stir in evening school circles. Today his book is used in many of the city's evening schools. So much for a factual picture of Dr. Shapiro's life! The story of the library will require a more detailed account. The library started in 1930 with an idea. Dr. Shapiro puts it this way. The students had no place in the building where they could do SL1DDl9lT161lt.Z11'Y reading for their History classes. I decided to accumulate a small History li- brary for the students. Pooling the students' money through such ex- 15 pedients as raffles, library cards and history notes fees, Dr. Shapiro slowly enlarged his History library. It was at first located in Room 417. Then members of the English and Science Departments, viewing the success of the project, requested Dr. Shapiro to broaden the History library into a Talmudical Academy Library housing books of all types. This was done. Soon the library moved into what was then the play- room. Later, in 1944, when the administration decided to institute the study hall period it turned naturally to what was now popularly refer- red to as Docfs Library. A rebuilding job involving several thousand dollars was undertaken. Completed in November 1944, the library re- opened in more spacious and commodious quarters. Today the library is financed not only hiv the one dollar library fee payed by every stu- dent but also by an annual 3500 administration subsidy. The task of adding books to the library shelves is being dilligently pursued. That it was Benjamin Shapiro's persistent initiative and hard work that brought about the Talmudical Academy no one will deny. It is a con- crete and lasting result. Everyone admires Benjamin Shapiro for it. Student opinion on Dr. Shapiro. the teacher, is more divided. This Benjamin Shapiro is a man of average height and smiling de- meanor. He is dynamic. His mind is quick and incisive. As a conse- quence his manner of speaking is uniquely his own. Few students can be neutral on the subject of Dr. Shapiro. Most students either like him or dislike him. Often a student in the classroom will dislike Dr. Sha- piro, considering :himself wronged by a willful man. Upon being grad- uated, this same student, his judgment no longer clouded by imagined wrongs, will take a great liking to the man. At any rate, Dr. Shapiro's brisk and active manner has won him a host of followers in and out of T. A. Out of T. A., Dr. Shapiro is active socially. Last year he was elect- ed president of Berenziner Benevolent Association, a Landsmenshaft group. Throughout the war he worked hard to sell war bonds and solicit money for war charities. In his spare time Dr. Shapiro likes to play both table tennis and handball. He plays either game well, preferring to play what he calls a defensive game. Looking to the future, Dr. Shapiro declares that he would like to do some traveling. He sits back, pauses reflectively, and with typical Shapiro enthusiasm tells you that he would like to take another crack at those French archivesf' 16 Snupping the Chain of Preiudice BY SIMON DEUTSCH Prejudices, or p-re-judgements, are necessary to our lives for we all must act upon generalizations of our and of other people's past experiences.When we, therefore, approach an exception to a generalization, we will have in our minds a pre-judgement that the experience before us will be the same as those on which we founded our generalization. From this it follows that the usefulness of our prejudice depends on how well-founded it was. Pre-judgements based on little observation make up the first link in the chain of prejudice. Snapp-ing it can best be accomplished by instilling in the individual an instinctive and habitual cast of mind' in which he will not act on unjustifiable generalizations. This cast of mind will first be at- tained in his dealing with his daily occupations, and will perhaps be extend- ed to his dealings with other races, faiths, political 'beliefs and all the other field-s to which nprejudices' is applied' almost exclusively nowadays. The next link in the chain is stronger. If we find that our pre-judge- ment was wrong but refuse to acknowledge this to ourselves or to others we have again sinned. This second link is stronger because, if the first was due to carelessness or bad mental training, the second was usually caused by outside forces. To give a forceful example, most people lzave found out that their prejudice that all Negroes are bad was unfounded. Yet few ac- knowledge their mistake, even to themselves. Thus, while in the first link, the solution is to change the individual, the second link persists in spite of the individual. In the case of the Negroes, he might be afraid of losing his job were he to accept them as equals. He might find himself outcast for openly changing his mind. Often, rejecting one prejudice means rejecting others. In short, snapping the stronger link can be done only by first removing the outside forces which prevents us from acknowledging our mistakes. The problem as stated above is very much over-simplified. No con- crete solution has been offered but whatever its shortcomings, it is my stra- tegic plan for snapping the chain of prejudice. 17 ords From Thoughts CSelc-ctionsj By the late Rabbi SIDNEY KRUTMAN C The EIclzanite prints these selections from the poem. by the late Rabbi Krutman, who gradua- ed from T.

Izztroduction A calm, quiet summer evening after a busy day- A cool, fresh breeze casually sweetens the air- The gentle wind has a voice, a wise voice, And summons up universal thoughts. A heart in drunken rap-ture wavers, Poses queries, and attempts replies, And mumbles - - YYords from Thoughts. III Then evening falls with azure mrantled skies,-- The echo sounds again in a voice that cries, Take the night for yours to glean your thoughts,- Is all in vain that lives, Withers, and dies? VIII 'Tis said that living spring from other kind And oceans fill because the rivers wind, Yet who the parents to bear the first in life? -This, at thorn to provoke the clearest mind! XIV Blake the most of your moment swift and fleet, It glides away on slippery, silent feet, The while remembering this, av greater power Than yours to know is never in retreat. XXI Oh, that everything would be just joy And nothing to trouble repose or thoughts -But this is an ore too fine to be so pureg 'Tis yet more tasty seasoned with alloy. annoy!

Nations have come and gone hut ever anew Others fill their unquestioned lofty place.- For the Ship of life engages a changing crew. XLVII Like the inconspicuous pine that mostly thrives When winter with its icy paws arrives, And outlives statelier stems,-the modest soul Outwears the sudden glory of emptier lives.

Strong, perspiring men staggered with the packing cases, filled with my books, to the van. On their arrival at my new home, the men carried the books into the room selected for my library. Since the most important thing at the time was to have an emptier room, I hurriedly put the books on the new mahogany shelves which awaited them, the order in which they stood being of no matter, so long a.s they were off the floor. So I got the books up at last, and there they are still. I told myself that as soon as a rainy afternoon would come along, I would arrange them properly. When the rainy afternoon came, I told myself that I would ar- range them one of these fine mornings. As the books are standing now, I have to look along every shelf in search for the book I want. If I come to a. book by Bacon, I have no guarantee whatsoever that Shakespeare's books are nearby. Shakespeare's works, if they haven't dropped out on the way, are probably standing next to a book by Maimonides. Every time I need a book, I tell myself that something has to be done about it. But I can't do anything about it. Suppose that I decide to have all the poetry books together. That souds reasonable. But Byron's book is eleven inches high white Latimer's book is only four and a half inches high. I think that it would look very foolish if my tallest poet CByronj would occupy a place next to my smallest poet flaatimerj . You see my difficul- ty? If I arrange my books according to their contents I'm sure to get an untidy shelf. If I arrange my books according to their size and oolor, my shelves would look more beautiful. Ah! but if my poetically - inclined teacher should visit me he may lose sight of Latimer's book. QPerhaps you have never heard of Robert Latimer and his poetry, but I assure you that he was a genuine poet.l Indeed, when I look at my library, I do feel that it is sufficiently orna- mental as it stands. In fact there was a man at my house yesterday who, upon seeing my library, remarked: How pretty your library looks. Of course he dlidnlt know that it always takes me twenty minutes to find a book I want. Yes, on one of these rainy afternoons for fine morningsl I'm going to correct the outstanding fault of my library. Oh, no! It's not the arrangement of the books tha.t's going to be changed - I've given up hope for that long ago, and besides, my library looks very pretty the way it stands now. The change I'm going to make is quite simple. There are a few books - oh I'd say about seven hundred - which are still standing upside down.

Jerry Brickman-Chairman tlwC1I1:ite1n WHAT WE DID LAST TERM This is the story of the extra-curricul1zr activities in T. A. during the past term. The Executive Council, the administrative branch ol' student government, had already been elected when the term began. The Student Council, the legislative branch, was elected by the various classes as soon as possible. Under the chairmanship of G. O. president Joseph Yoshor and under the guidance of Mr. Joseph Liehtenberg, it met regularly. This term, in addition to carrying out its legislative functions, it also supervised other activities through the Executive Council and through its coxnmitees. The Constitutional Conrmittee has finally revised, through legal procedure, and mimeographed the Constitution of the G. O. Through tne Executive Council, the Student Council saw to it that clubs were given every opportu- nity to succeed. In return, however, the Executive Council and the El- chanite' required all activities to maintain satisfactory records of member- ship, attendance Zllld achievements. It is from these records that the Di- rectory of Activities and the information for this article are taken. TheCurrent History Club met in the Library on Sundays. Activities fell into two groups: current topics and a term project. Part of each meet- Current History Club ing was devoted to a free-for-all discussion ot' a topic ot' current interest. The term project consisted of reports by members on various radio commen- tators. Attendance fluctuated about the dozen mark but all members were highly enthusiastic about the club. The Debating Society started with a loud bang and ended with a weak pop. A club of this nature requires a htrge membership if it is to succeed 23 but, except for the first meetings, not more than half a dozen regular mem- bers showed up. This is no doubt due to the severe exclusiveness of all dc- bating activities in T. A. Students who did attend profited much but at Debating Society any rate, the proposed program oi the Program Committee C Deutsch, Hab- er and Steinerb failed to be carried out. The Hebrew Speaking Club has proudly finished its most successful term. Its program consisted of reports 'by members on questions of Jewish interest and on the Jewish news, each followed by question-and-answer H 0 bra zu Spcalfing Club periods. All transactions were carried on in Heb1'ew. Examples of the topics reported on are Jewish philosophy and Yiddish literature. As its fclimaxing achievement the Hebrew Speaking Club issued a mimeographed magazine in Hebrew, Hazik Q The Sparkuj . It contained many articles of interest written by the members themselves. The Science Club, once it had so-lved the problem -of abtaining a steady and competent faculty adviser by securing the services of Mr. Samuel Leibowitz, progressed by leaps and bounds. Following the T. A. trend 'away from dry lectures and discussions and towards student participation, the Science Cluub presented several demfonstrations with appropriate talks, both given by student members. Some of these demonstrations, taking place in the chemistry and physics lalborato-ries of T. A. with additional supplies provided by the Yeshiva College laboratories and by hir. Leibo- witz, were: VVhat is Catalysis? , The Chemistry of Photography, and Q4 The Dissection of a Frog. As its most ambitious enterprise, the Science Club successfully undertook the preparation of aniline dyes from coal tar. The various steps in the manufacture of them were presented with adequate Science Club explanations to the members. The Science Club of T. A., a member of Science Clubs of America, plans to exhibit the results of its experiments to the student body. The Stamp Club is a newcomer to T. A. Organized by an enterprising lower-termer, George Sales, it received equal consideration from the Execu- tive Council along with the longer-established clubs as soon as the sincer- ity of its efforts was evident. The Stamp Club has not yet been able through experience to realize its potentialities and its limitations. With fuller development, it will provide T. A. students with a trading mart for stamps and with an opportunity to exchange philatclie information and experience amongst themselves. One of the means that the clubs, and all other activities for that matter, have of attracting participants is the Publicity Bureau. This past term, the Bulletin Board, which is under the care of the Publicity Bureau, has exhibited at all times material interesting enough to catch the eyes of the students. The art and literature featured were excellent. As a suggestion to increase its usefulness, the Publicity Bureau could read daily to all offi- cial classes a list of all activities to take place that day and the day follow- ing. Sporadic attemp-ts at this have already been made but the efforts were too unorganized to work. Having at its disposal another bulletin board is the Concert Bureau. As usual the manager has secured tickets to radio broadcasts and has made them available to the students upon payment of a small service fee. Con- tinuing its custom of placing tickets to the disposal of the lYar Effort Com- mittee for distribution to bond buyers, the Concert has also cooperated this term with the Elchanite. Q5 The Service Squad, formerly the Discipline Squad, instituted a system of hall patrols during periods during the fall ter'm. In the spring term, un- der the captaincy of lNIathew Katz, it patrolled the third floor during the first periods of the afternoon. There has been much speculation among -, ' - 1 Service S quad student leaders, and also among students in general, as to the role that the Service Squad will play in the proposed and much discussed Student Court. Turning to sports, we report a general decline in the quality and in the quantity of T. A. interscholastic and intramural sports. The basketball varsity, despite the enthusiastic and whole hearted efforts of old standbys such as Kid Felder, Geller and Simon, did not even come close to the rec- ord of the teams of a few terms ago. To a large extent, this is due to the unavailability of the gym for practice. This also accounts for the virtual disappearance of intra-mural basketball. That is all as far as sports of the body go. No longer are there talble tennis and punichball tournaments. For the remaining sports activities one must turn to chess and debating. These two never have had a large fol- lowing, being practiced by a small group only. The interscholastic teams in both fields have however upheld the honor of T. A. against all comers, Yeshivas and public high schools alike. A fairly successful intramural de- bating schedule was completed. Wle finally come to journalism. The bane of all T. A. activities, lack of student participation and cooperation, hit the two school periodicals, the Academy Newsu and the Elchanite. If the top men of any T. A. pub- lication are in the game for the experience they ca11 get out of it, they soon find out that they get more of that than they bargained for. Two or three men have to take care of all the work and detail. That is an unfair con- dition and a self-destructive one, for a st.udent publication canot exist unless it is published by students. Working under these handicaps, several issues of the Academy Newsl' and a belated issue of the Elchanite fthe one you are now readingj appeared. The editors of the Academy News were Martin Halpern, Simon Deutsch Qwith lNIathew Katz as managing editorj and Melvin Bunim successively. All received and acknowledged the in- valuable advice and help of Stanley Wexler, managing editor of this Elch- anitea' under editor-in-chief Simon Deutsch. Q6 was XX M.

CThe above addresses are the latest available according to the school filesa last will anti Testament r W - Four years ago the subways of New .York brought forth upon this school, a new class, conceived in ? , and dedicated to the proposition that all teachers are mice. Now we have survived a great war, testing whether that class, or any class, so dedicated can long endure. We have come to dedicate a memorial to those who sacrificed their teachers that that class might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we do this ,... We here highly resolve that these teachers shall not have been sacrificed in vain - that this class, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that, government of the students, bvy the stu- dents, for the students, shall not perish from this school. With this solemn purpose in mind, we, the Senior Class of June 1945, bequeath all our possessions to those who have made these last four years, years long to be remembered - years of misery, of mental an- guish and of hard work. Knowing that teachers will always be teach- ers, we have left them our earthly goods with the hope that the satis- faction of some of their frustrated inhibitions will make life more pleas- ant for the unfortunates who have yet to pass through the portals bearing the trouble-curing and freedom-bringing inscription Gradu- ation.

Z c 5011 for 661.51 Q7 5-dale The senior term of high school is the most crowded of the eight and looking back on ours it might be worthwhile to record some of its outstanding events for pos- terity. In English we find that for the first time in history, a class relin- quished its privilege of a Hclass pro- gram . Jluch as ire missed Gilb- ert and Sullivan in the person of Eli Horowitz and Station WEVD in that of Siegel, we did find a substi- tute in Jlr. Bloonfs jokes. His un- expected philological distinction between the botanical tomato lLg- copusicamb and the Zoological to- mato lgirlj will be remembered as an example. Blow, Gabriel, blow! Ta-Ta- Ta-Tanta-Taaaa! The Great Compromise of T. A. has been arrived at. After years of bick- ering it was agreed to have class hats in the unusual combination of blue-and-white. Everyone was satisfied with these hats, every- one, that is, except those who like Benjy Stepansky Wanted brown and pink berets or mauve and green yarmulkas. Doon Shapiro deserves a cita- tion of honor from President Tru- man for helping the government avert a threatened nickel shortage. Jef Keller had loads of nickel stor- ed azvavy. Then Doc started charg- ing Jeff a nickel a rock on the li- brary chairs whenever he tried to make them 'work like swivel chairs. Dai those nickels fly back into cir- culation! The 'wisest thing for Keller would have been to bug the chair for 3200. I t fzifoald have cheaper in the long run. That one is played out too. Don't try to waste time in Dr. Kronish's History class by giving him a pack of Luckie's every four minutes during a cigarette short- age. Sol Bioomenfeld used this trick whenever he didn't know his lesson fin other words, all the timej, but as Dr. Kronish caught on, Sol hal to hang on to his seat for fear of being kicked out. Thus was another T. A. trick played out. Block parties! House-parties! Yiptpee!!! G-day has a1'1'ivecl. lllhat is G-day? Well, I'll tell you. For four years we have been preparing for G-day. You can probably guess what it stands for by now. That's right - Graduation day, the most important day in our high school career. It is the day we leave it. Even on Graduation day itself we had some excitement. Please boys, clonat trip on the stairs to the stagef' Dr. Safir had begged us. But, to no avail. In quick succes- sion Glaser, Shulman and Siegal fell to the floor. No bullets were whizzing by but they just couldn,t goose-step up the high steps to the stage.

BD- Iri- OD mic Uta- DCE'- 'rit- for l A two-year five-million dollar study hall endowment plan campaign has come to a successful conclusion. The famous schnorers, Milton Kardes-ch and Israel Paleyeff, whose exper- iences with Wall Street bankers dates back to early World War II bond campaigns, have just released these overwhelming re- sults to the famous reporter, N. William Gross. The administration will start using these funds immediately. The entire sum will be divided into three parts, each to be used for the basic features of protection, comfort and beauty. Pro- tection, will be divided into two parts, internal and extemal. S1,666,665.25 will be spent for intemal protection and the re- mainder, the munificent sum of 5.75 will be used for external protection. Internal safeguards will consist of electric eyes on each door, alumiranium bars on the windows, and noise detect- ors on all the seats Lto be changed when couches are installedl. It will be virtually impossible for any student to leave the study hall without previous permission from Mr. Elgart. Any student attempting to leave will have the following happen to him: a S120,000 alarm system will go into action, an automatic call will be put through to Mr. Abrams office, an electronic camera will take his picture and make a permanent record of his crime, and paralyzing' rays will hold the culprit rooted to the spot until the officials arrive. This is expected to reduce the percentages of unauthorized absenteeism from 99.16 to 99.03 per cent. Ex- perts estimate that each further reduction of one per cent would cost only S200,000 for protective equipment. ANNUAL MEETING The anna-al meeting of the T.

Winners: Cclumbia Scholastic Iron Cross Sympathizers: Richmond Advertising Agency EDITORIAL Looking through the copies of the third volume of the Academy News Q19-I-lj , we came across an in- teresting group of students, the three-year coursersf' Yes, t.here were actually boys who finished T. A. in three years. We looked into the matter and our re- search really surprised us. Not only did the students finish in three years, but they did so with the aicl and comfort of the Administra- tion. It seems that entering freshmen used to take an entrance exam. The top students, instead of being given a pat on the back, would be allowed during the following three years a program of six real majors every term. They would take BIath in the first term, where it really belongs, and if ever they had a. conflict, they were able to fill out their program at night school. Slowly, without fanfare, the Administration elim- inated the three year course. Postponing Math until the second term and replacing it by lIusic and P. T. started the death process of this opportunity which the better students deserved. IVith the hope that there will be found today stu- dents as able as the three year coursers of old, we urge the Administration to once again establish a three year course in T. A. T. A.

Student leaders were at once enthusiastic over his scheme. Chaim Yockel, head of the T.

Twenty years ago fwhen my old man was graduated from high schoolj Mr. Geller, then senior prexy, decided that his job was too profitable and promising to be given up in exchange for an uncertain future. He remained at his old job year after year, with successive senior classes.

Unless prompt action is taken by the student body itself to bring the offenders to justice, Dr. Shapiro insisted he would have to bring his lotkes machine and cash regis- ter into action again after a. rest of almost twenty years . . .

As you know, our programs now consist of five minutes of news for every fifty-five minutes of singing commercials. From now on, however, the whole program will be devoted to commercials. This will.

SCREEN -NOTES- Last Hope Hollywood - Cyrus Shavrick, handsome star who has been appearing opposite Z. See in the latest productions of Lee Ster- man, is reported in danger of his life at the local hospital. His condition is steadily becom- ing worse due to his unwilling- ness to fight back. His press agent, Eleazer Lev- ine, has arranged a funeral, in case of Shavricl-is death, that will outshine that of Valintino. The full membership of all Shavrick's Swoomers clubs is ready to be flown to Hollywood at the announcement of the tragic news. Shavrick's last tragedy, produced While he was still in the full bloom of health, will be released from coast to coast so as to take full advantage of the wave of sympathy and mourning which is sure to hit Shavricks large following. However, Mr. Levine may yet see all his publicity work go for naught. Dr. David Freidberg, New York specialist, brought in on the case as a last, desperate measure, made the following statement to the press tonight: There is still some hope left. The proposed cure is based on a natural impulse of all T. A. stu- dents, past. present and future. As soon as Shavrick recovers consciousness, he will be told something that will make him react psychologically and that MUST cause him to fight with all his heart to stay alive. He will be reminded that if he should die he might not go to Heaven and that in Hell he would meet his old teachers. That should do it! ACADEMY NEWS 6 S EPTEMBER 19, T965 T. A.

I had been informed that rush hours occur only on Weekdays. My informant must have been kidding me - Sunday's is the rush hour Upar excellence. I descended into the subway and attempted to board the train. The heaving. pushing. fighting crowd shoved me into the car and almost out the other side. I had lost all hope of getting even room to put my feet down on the floor, to say noth- ing of sitting down. when one lady showed her intention of get- ting off at the next stop. All eyes were riveted on that seat. I knew the odds were against me but I decided to get the seat. Somehow I succeeded. It was then that my troubles really began. Two passengers on either side of me vainly attempted to read their papers and my view was completely blocked. However, I was compen- sated by being able to read two papers at once. My neighbors. becoming aware that I was using their paper gratis, became in- dignant. Suddenly one of them said in a voice that boomed over the noise of the car: Here, read it! When you finish, let me have it. Samuel Glaser THE THOUSAND , ARCHITECTS Of all the buildings that the Yeshivah University owns to- day, the old building in Wash- ington Heights on Amsterdam Avenue will always remain a fa- vorite. Of course, only a hand- ful of the students today know what the structure looks like and much less know what it looked like twenty years ago. You see. in 1927 the Yeshiva spent 32,500,000 for that great edifice. The greater part of this sum W-ent towards the em- bellishment of the building. Make no mistake about it, that building was beautiful. The in- interior, however, could never keep up with the changing needs of the ever expanding Yeshiva and from time to time construc- tion jobs were necessary to make more economical use of the space available. These un- dertakings consisted of putting up a few partitions or tearing down a couple of walls at a time but, after a few years of this, the interior arrangements were favorably changed. The height of the construc- tion fever came in September 1945 at the time that the Ye- shivah reached the status of University. Although tliie job consisted of nothing more than the relocation of some offices, there were over a thousand ar- chitects on the scene. By this I mean that the entire student body, the Roshei Hayeshiva, Mr. Abrams and the office girls kept telling the harried con- 1Continued on next pageb ACADEMY NEWS 7 smfmsfk 19, 1965 f .gf it - i.

No harm came of it as all these advisers couldn't make a messier job ev- en they had tried to do it them- selves. As a passing remark I might say that the contractor fancied himself to be quite a chiseler. and indeed he was. He did a beautiful job both in cutting out the window of the informa- tion booth and in plastering up the cracks that spread through the priceless marble as a result. All in all the job was success- ful though, of course, it never could compare with the Study Hall in beauty of construction. S'r,tNL1-LY WI-:xutn Class - Nite The basis for the optimistic feeling that has been sweeping the Institution concerning the lifting of the twenty-year-old ban on dramatics is the report rumored to have been submitted by an interdepartmental investi- gating committee. The majority, consisting of T. A., T.I., and the graduate school, contended that dramatic productions will harm neither the reputation of the Institution nor the morals of the high school students. CEd. note - P o o r college students! Left to worry for themselvesll The College and Yeshiva repre- sentatives, according to our highly reliable, unimpeachable. authoritative and on-the-inside, though unofficial sources, 'mote a minority dissenting opinion. The College claimed that there must be a PROTOSYN- THESIS between secular and re- ligious learning, and that dra- matics are no good anyway. The other members are said to have pointed out irately that this has been the College student body's attitude for the last. twenty years, three-quarters nonsense and one-quarter inaction. Even the lowly high school students, who had less at stake than their elder school- mates had not stopped at talk- ing meekly but had held strong protest meetings. The committee report, accord- ing to our rumors, concluded with the following statement: To satisfy all factions, seat- ing arrangements at future class-nites will be identical with that used at recent aguD.-KH magic shows in the Lamport Auditorium., i. e., alternate rows of boys and girls.
