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.

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

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. The name of Rabbi Isaac Elchanan is no longer part of the populafr name of the school but his spirit must forever be the heart of itf' 4 may ga:5as1ig.,:.::- - ' 3521: 22121: 3. lf- VHISQTHI-33521122 -114212-?eEff:'i2?E2 '1.ff2!s-- :f:- -if ' -S-f -a.,...:zf:1:e1-: me zest- fair?
