SAMUEL BELKIN June 1949 To The Student-Body: You. the students of our Talmudical Academy. and particularly the Gradu- ating Class of 19-L9 have great reason lo rejoice, for your period of transition from boyhood into manhood was spent in the ideal atmosphere of Torah learning and modern culture. I watched your gradual progressand l was inspired by your spirit, and by the selfless devotion of your Roshei ha-Yeshiva and teachers. l exhort you to remain steadfast in our religious beliefs. in the mode of living and in the ethical and spiritual convictions which are the essence and guiding spirit of our lives. lt is only by immortal truths of the Torah and our sacred traditions. by being true to ourselves and our sacred heritage that we can best serve ourselves and our fellowmen. Godliness as the foundation of our lives: obedience to the Divine Law of the Torah. and usefulness for the common-good of mankind are the fundamental parts of the training of a Yeshiva man. These sacred values you must always bear in mind, as well as in action. Sincerely yours, SAMUEL BELKIN, President Q if Q if Q deelgfcicmdte Q f.Q if Y - eight -

Mere English words cannot express our feelings towards him, therefore we shall use a combination of French and Spanish: '4Venit, Vidit, Vicit, Cordes, Studentrumu tHe came, he saw and he conquered the hearts of all the studentsj lEd. Note-This year the editor feels that besides the dedication, a tribute to Mr Gendell is in order.J I . sfa+nl?49m+s SCYCII -'

SAPIIIIII- To The 1949 Graduation Class - - - Dear Young Friends : The exercises which will take place on Tuesday, June 28th in celehration ol' the ollicial termination of your high school course of studies will mark the four- tieth such occasion since the first graduation in 1919. At that time. a mere handful. of but six young pioneers, presented themselves for the long sought for award which signified the successful completion of their task. Since that first graduation in 1919. several thousand young men have gone forth from our sacred walls. Even a cursory examination of the roster of names which is printed in our high school alumni bulletin will cause the heart of every self- respecting Jew to swell with pride and satisfaction. Among their number one will find not only rabbis and religious leaders and teachers but repre- sentatives in all walks of life, et cetera. are amply and honorably represen- ted in this list. Every part of our country. every segment of our national Jewish life, is permeated and enriched by the contributions which our graduates have to oliver to make up the sum total of human experience. As we look back with justifiable and pardonable pride upon the thousands who preceded you. we can only hope and pray that you, their younger brothers. will follow in their foot steps. Yve pray that you will hold precious those high stand- ards and lofty ideals of citizenship and service. of faith in. and loyalty to our American democracy that ne have tried to in- culcate in you and that you will put into living practice. and uphold in your daily lives. tl1e sacred laws and traditions ol' our holy Torah. May you prove a source ol' pride and joy to your parents and your Alma Mater! Sincerely yours. SHIZLLRY ll. SAl'Hll1lf. l'r1'1n'i,'raf -' Il.llL 1
