enough to have been noisy when Mr. Abrams was prowling on the floor. The other suspension occurred when a future year-book editor naively asked Mr. Abrams to please help him keep the class he was watching quiet. The term progressed. Boys said, I'm going to start learning from the two dots. Spring basketball practice started in the park. Rabbi Tendler helped struggling Yeshiva boys with General Science, while in T.l., Avodah Zorah flourished in the back row. In the T.I. elections, write-in candidates Harri S. Truman, Villie Sut- ton, and the Gootch , received support from freshmen in Aleph. Mr. Gendell, originally a Spanish teacher, found him- self teaching and learning Economic Ge- ography, and Mr. Breinan, also teaching this subject, mistook Doc Shapiro for a Ubangi. Yeshiva students found that the best cure for constipation was a test by Rabbi Zaks. Punchball, off-the-point, and stickball became popular. T.I, end terms came and the dorm filled up with migratory students again. This time, most passed. High School end terms weren't too bad, and vacation was here. The apprentice year was over.

We won't easily forget the day that Mr. Breinan cracked a smile, or the day Mr. Gendell looked up at the biggest freshman and asked. Does your mother love you? Or the time Mr. Wettstein inadvertently mispronounced Sol Lippi- nus' name. It appeared that there were interesting specimens in T.I. also. The smart boys Aleph m'hirah received warning from the Gootch to stay away from the temptations of the zonah and eassy money. The boys in Aleph itit were graced with the presence of Doc Brayer, who, it turned out, taught mornings also. He was rumored to be a triple threat, for he thought up new Hebrew words on the side. They convinced him that crib sheets were cram sheets. While studying mythology, some boys brought books which had pictures of nude gods and goddesses in them. The other boys yelled, Hot book, Moreh! , and More-h answered, I'll gettimf' We pleaded with Windy not to throw us out for doing Avo-:lah Zorah and practiced a maneu- ver known as the oncoming chairs . We pitched pennies in room 307. The Stern brothers pitched quarters. We first became involved in politics during a victorious fight for exemptions. It was then that the future politicans circulated their first petitions. Three freshmen made the basketball team where they rendered invaluable service as anchor men. They made sure the bench stayed put at all the games. The swains trooped en masse to the Ramaz game and dance, where. it must be ad- mitted, they didn't accomplish much. We took what end terms we had to, Everybody took any exemption he could l W. if UJH01 T 0 X Mustek? .. as v P Z 5' arf ' 'Weep 1 'Q 'Tai'-1 --i 1 L P g ,J A. ml Af get, even if it meant a lower markg ex- emptions would soon be a thing of the past, We migrated to the dorm and forgot about sleep. Some of us made cribs. Somehow we got through. The Spring term came next and the thoughts of T.A. students turned in the usual directions. And so it was, along the same general line, that a red-haired freshman asked Mr. Schain how a rooster fertilized an egg. Mr. Schain blushed and fidgeted and finally advised the red- head to go to the zoo and observe. The Reign of Terror drove us closer together. One day, there was a special freshman assembly called by Mr. Abrams. He called our attention to zz very reriom matter, that of laxity of discipline. The crackdown of which he warned came quickly. The study hall teacher Mr. Schnipper, feared his job was in danger. The next day over ten freshmen found out what it meant to be suspended. They learned that Mr. Abrams didn't give 4 conrinental for excuses, that they were .furpefzded indefirzifely for three dayr. and that they had to bring their mothers. their fathers, or one of Ibeir pvrcrzli on the morrow for an admit.
