Ex LM FQREWORD The human race is now engaged in open- ing up and exploring a new frontier. Man is about to learn the secrets of the vast universe. But has he yet learned to understand the secrets of his own mind? We are ready to go out and conquer space, setting out from a world which as yet, is a troubled place. lt is our hope that along with a knowledge of the mysteries of the cosmos we shall achieve the intelligence necessary to perfect our own world.

This uneasiness has been on all levels, from elementary to college and even to graduate schools. Many conferences on education have been held. Struggling with shortages of teachers, class- rooms and facilities, they expressed the hope for substantial federal aid to education as the only means of remedying this intolerable situation. In an age of mechanization and automation, we have been concerned with more and more gadgets like radio, television sets, air conditioners, washing and drying machines and with more than two cars in every garage, not to mention the millions parked on the streets and highways. Hence, federal funds go for a multi-billion dollar highway project rather than for education. However, the recent successful launchings of the Russian sputniks and our earlier failures with satellite launchings shook us to our very founda- tions. The resuit is a crash program to complete the revamping of our educational curriculum. The idea is to do something in a hurry, hoping for the best. Plans are now in the oliing for teaching science to children barely out of their swaddling clothes. Mathematics should be Hrammedw down the throats of all pupils and students regardless of the lack of capacity. Engineers and technicians should be 'cground out on an assembly-line basis. We should copy the Soviet educational system even though we are a democracy with democratic ideals. Those of us who have been connected with edu- cational institutions for many, many years, know only too well the folly of such a program. We know that the better schools, including our own high school, have always had a balanced curriculum in- cluding English, mathematics, science, social studies and foreign languages. Here both essential elements -science and the humanities-have been adhered to. What is even more vital is that the religious, spiritual and ethical values in life-values which give the true meaning and direction to education- should have a higher place in our studies. During the Nazi nightmare, the world sadly learned of the destructive tendencies that mere tech- nical perfection can create. Now, too, the G'Dless Russian leaders are ever boasting of their ability to annihilate any country anywhere with their modern weapons. mr: 'nb tm rwrcrn 'nv :mow nir:wn,, You graduates, who will be the leaders of the next generation, must not only prepare yourselves with knowledge and ability to counteract this latest rush', of education, but must plan to enter fields in education and religious leadership to enable you to bring to the world the Hebrew message of SHA- LOM. Make your slogan the following: LET US KEEP OUR SPIRITUAL AND ETHICAL FEET ON THE GROUND RATHER THAN OUR DESTRUCTIVE SPFTNIKS IN THE SKY. For the Jew, scientific, even military preparations must have but one aim -to prepare for peace. Graduates A From the vantage-point of forty-two y-ears of con- tinuous relationship with Yeshiva Ivniversity High School lTalmudical Academyl, the last forty-two years as its principal, I have been a witness to its phenomenal growth from a mere handful of pupils and teachers in tight and squalid quarters on the lower east side of New York, to its present home in the solid granite, brick. and steel structure on the upper west side of our city. I have seen it grow from a school with fewer students than the present number of faculty members, from a few-and-twenty youngsters in their early teens to its present en- rollment of nearly four hundred young men be- tween thirteen and eighteen years of age. During that period of time I have seen over three hundred thousand young men land young women, if we include our two Brooklyn Yeshiva Ivniversity high schoolsl go forth from these sacred halls to continue their education, most of them in our own Yeshiva and its College, and some in other institu- tions of learning. What advice. what counsel, can I give you on the threshold of your young manhood? Perhaps I can put it briefly by saying that in your endeavors and strivings for the future, make sure that you will be preparing yourselves not so much for making a living, important as that may be, but for making a life. Try to separate the trees from the forest. Donlt heed slogans and do not follow blindly the leadership of the blind, Think for your- selves and try to figure out what will be best for you in the life you are planning to lead. - . '15 ' i ET I K. f 1 When you go to College, as everyone ofiyou will, try to enroll in those courses that will lead to the development of a full, a complete personality. Make your education as broad as possible. Do not load up on sciences because the present trend, what- ever the causes may be, is to worship at the feet of mathematics and sciences, Remember you will have to live in an environment in which you will come in contact with all kinds of people. You will have to learn to get along with them and to speak their language. A very wise man once said that the truly edu- cated man is one who has contact with many of the facets of one's environment. In planning your education give due place to mathematics and the sciences, for we are living in a highly scientific age, but do not neglect the humanities-the social studies, languages, English, music, art, and the others. Plan wisely and make the base of your cultural background as wide and broad as possible. Take care not to become only an efficient engin- eer, a capable physician, a well-trained teacher, an eloquent lawyer, a shrewd business man, a learned rabbi, but, with it all, a shallow and ignorant man. I wish you good luck in all your endeavors, and expect that you will so conduct yourselves in the future as to reflect honor, and glory, and happi- ness on your parents, and on all those who have had a hand in the shaping of the formative years of your lives.

Horn, who taught in YUHS since 1950, left the school last February. During his stay at Yeshiva, Mr. Horn was noted for his active work with student publications and activities. Mr. Horn's record with the Yeshiva organization was quite formidable. In 194-6, he began teaching at B.T.A., and was one of the first teachers at Central Yeshiva. In 1948, he left to teach at the Roosevelt School in Hyde Park. Soon after, he returned to Central and, in 1950, began teaching at YUHS. Since that time he served our school in many different capacities. In addition to being an outstanding English teacher, Mr. Horn taught art and founded Themes, He was the advisor of many class councils and was also faculty advisor of The Ledger and the lnterscholas- tic Debating Team. Mr. Horn was the dramatics coach under whose able guidance several sucessful senior plays were produced. In his last few months in YUHS he helped organize this year's outstanding senior presentation of Stalag 17. 4?4i1:2af:2fga:1-.-iff,.'

The Lamport Auditorium is slowly beginning to fill up. The crowd is moving very slowly since people are stopping to greet one another. A portly gentleman in a Homburg hat is proceeding down the aisle. shaking hands with almost everyone in range. He is dressed in a dark suit with a white carnation in his lapel, and a malacca walking stick gripped firmly in his hand. He ascends the steps to the stage and clears his throat. Gentlernen.,, he says pompously. 'L l have the honor and the privilege to introduce to you. the Registrar of our Alma Mater. Mr. Norman B. Abrams. A round of ap- plause follows. the honorable Senator Weisel de- scends heavily from the platform. and a short, slight, dignified man walks up to the microphone. l am very glad to greet you here today. As you probably can guess. this is the largest class re- union in the history of the Yeshiva bniversity High Schoolfl This declaration is greeted with mirth and loud cheering. awe have planned a wonderful day for you and l amlsure you will enjoy yourselves. And now without further ado. let us proceed to the main part of the program. Senator Veezel, will you please come up here and act as master of cere- monies. Once again the great personage ascends the steps. The program will open with the singing of the Hatilrra first and the Star Spangled Banner following. in accordance with the latest edict from Washington. Following that. gentlemen. we will sing the Alma Mater. During the singing of the 'Hatikraf Weiss. Oustatcher. and Rothkoff, who have come in by raft from lsrael tweiss was too cheap to spend carfarei, stand stiffly to attention and a fanatic gleam emanates from behind their eyeglasses. They are noticeably silent during the singing of the American Anthem. The Alma Mater is gotten through by glancing at faded. crumbling green cards which some members of the class of 1958 have preserved in cold storage. At the com- pletion of the song. Rabbi Howard Zuckerman, who is also the President of the New York Stock Ex- change. delivers the invocation in a sainlly, Holy Joev voice. Then comes a long string of speeches by illustrious alumni. Howard Jacobson. honorary President of the NAACP. delivers a long talk on The Relation Be- tween the Hair Styles of the Romans and that of Ray Felix. Mr. Jacobson is an eminent authority on hair styles since he is a practicing barber. Before the next speaker begins, a small man in an usher's uniform rushes up to the podium, whips out a cloth from his pocket and dusts it off. 'AYou see, he explains to the audience, NI had so much practice dusting the Rebbe's seat that I became a movie attendant at night and a Gemorah student by day. The audience applauds, Mr. Packter bows, and returns to his seat. The second speaker is Charles Thaler. He says c'Hello,' and sits down. This is the longest speech he has ever made. As the next speaker rises, one notices an unusually colorful object on his head. It is supposedly a Yarmulka but somehow, it depicts scenes from Chinese rural life. Rabbi Joseph Feinstein reports briefly that he MBecame a disciple of the great, Holy Chinese Rabbi and leader, Manny Fu. Gitel- man pulls out a revolver and, smiling calmly, shoots at Feinstein, narrowly missing his heart. The last speaker is Dr. Julius Zelmanowitz. M. D., Ph. D., D. Sc. He reports briefly on What YUHS's Science Department has done for mef, The gist of his speech suggests that it has done nothing.

Several people are frightened by sounds of a dog and cat fighting. But it is only Jason Alpert, head of the A.S.P.C.A. and designer of the Greyhound Scenic Cruiser. He grins rather insanely and joins his comrades in their tour of the classrooms. A smell of sweet pipe smoke seeps through the doors of one of the rooms. The alumni peer in and see the great Greitzer holding court. His humble subjects listen wonderingly as he pours forth the non-essen- tials of Group Theory. Suddenly, a gurgle, a snap and a click are heard. They seemed to be coming from the next room. The alumni recognize the golden tones of Dr. Shapiro, but where is the venerable sage? Upon investigation, it is revealed that '4Doke has been replaced by a tape recorder. He is now writing an essay entitled Wllhe Evils of Automation or How I Lost My Job. Passing by the Gottesman Library, one notices that a drastic change seems to have taken place. A teacher is lecturing a class-but something is 11 b lim Z ffmexfs :1 f 91--rr fi' XLLWVT U ' 11 tzbawi Wfmil, O X 497W - +7-L 1 5 V' ' ' 1X+lqywiZL 9, iqQ+P'l O Qgfovorv Q54 4 0 XJ D 1 ,U- uf' Nfl 0 T Q 1 2 I 72 4 o KN SCH T-Olilf, , at f 9 Bi 4 GA A ' ASE ' ' 9 NW -ty - -., ER 1 -Do NOT I 1 1 1 1 1 l wrong.

Actual females sitting blushingly in a classroom while ogling boys gape stupidly. And here we've been telling generations of YUHS boys that girls are merely a figment of an evil imagination. When the shocked alumni turned to lVlr. Abrams for an explanation. he squirms uncomfortably. and points mutely to the sign on the wall. Yeshiva Co-Edu- cational Experimental Control Station-M. Cordon and J. Weiss Administrative supervisors. This is purely in the interest of science , Mr. Abrams explains. The alumni grumbled uneasily and threaten to write to their Congressmen. Senator Weisel promises Prompt Congressional attention, Gentlemen. He then starts making more promises but is interrupted by a sudden gust of wind. What the heck is-l' Mr, Lichtenberg is teaching Geometry using his hankerchief to draw circles. explains Mr. Abrams, G'Sometimes he gets very enthusiastic. Yes, there he is, Uncle Joe Lichty, first cousin to Father Time. Mr. Lichtenberg is a areal math teacherl' and he is also quitef'sincere,' so don't laugh when he makes funny declarations or adds incorrectly. When he is in his study at home. and there are no Hounds after him, J. J. Lichtenberg is a great. precision-like machine. The alumni sneak into the room and listen. It's hard because it's impossible. itls wrong, Illl show you why it's wrong but it's rightf' he says in one breath. This leaves his students slightly bewildered but this is due only to the fact that they are not real', math students. The bell rings mercifully at that moment. The alumni emerge into the hall. A swarm of locusts, sometimes called Freshmen. buzzes angrily fl ' H1 . 11 1Il 1 1 lj '1 '1 1'1ll 1 1 l,1l1 111,91 ,l 11, 1'1f 111, 11111 . ll JF1 1 I 1 I l 1 1 l l 1 l 1 11, 1 X. 1 N 11-X1 pp X l 11 R l l 1 JJ' 1 l'1 I l1l ll1 .11 1 l N11 1 WI, 1 1 I1 X till l 1 ' 11 , 'l , 1 1 11 1 1 1 W 1 1 1, . 1 l1l'l 1 1 iq 11A 1 11 1 l l1g l th fx 1, 1 1 1 ' 1l ' ' ' l 1 11 1 11 1 . . 11 l1 1 1 E1 Y, N 11 1 ll 1 11 1- .1 ,.1 It ,pl lf1l'1fflfll11 13 f fllxllx Mir f ll- gy CRAQK7' lj' 1 l l 7 flilllfllaqf 1l 1,1 ill 1 1V ' l1l I QVll,1f!

At long last the bell rings, bringing peace once more to the halls. Only one strident voice is heard accompanied by the husky laughter of young males. Professor Rabbi Dr. Yechiel Grossman is trying to teach. This man is one of the greatest geniuses in the world-for verification of this state- ment, ask him. He is a great philosopher who went to the f'New School For Social Reesoichn where he was seen frequently with Mrs, Roooseveltff He once declared that 'fl have read everything concern- ing Jewish Philosophyf, In addition he claims that at the age of three he knew Babba Metzia, Babba Basra, and Babba Kama by heart.

The oiiicers. who were elected at the end of the previous term, were able to get things rolling very early. President Muss immediately effected his pet idea of a G.O. oliice, which would sell review books to the students at a discount. Located in Room 001, the oilice was an immediate success and will most assuredly be continued in future years. The other members of the executive council also showed enthusiasm for their jobs. Howard Messinger, the vice-president and co-ordinator of intramurals, proceeded to arrange a schedule so that no two intra- murals were planned for the same night. ln the secretarial slot Auriel Spigelman arranged the neatest Buelletin board that ever enhanced the second floor and saw to it that the minutes of Student Council meetings came out no later than two days following the meeting. This Student Council was also famed for its ability to avoid major problems which should be solved. Clubs were unheard of and unspoken of, the moment the election speeches were over. This was also the fate of the Student Court. Assemblies were as uninteresting as in previous years. All in all it was a normal Student Council with energy shown in some directions and lethargy in others. The meetings were orderly, the only hitch being the delay of two months in appointing the Editor-in-chief of the Academy News. STUDENT SPRING STUDENT COUNCIL The Spring Term began with a burst of school spirit. Faced with the prospect of graduating without anything to show for four years, the Seniors rallied around the flag and produced six candi- dates for the two top offices in the G.O. Lenny Rothkoff was elected to the presidency, and Sol Brand was elected to the Vice presidency. Cary Judd and Howie Fishman were elected Secretary and Treas- urer, respectively. At the first Student Council meeting the members were in- formed that this year the treasury had more money than it had in any previous term. The rest of the meeting was concerned 'with ap- pointments. The only outstanding event was the noticeable lack of opposition to any nominations. The rest of the Student Council meetings followed in the same boring vein, the only excitement oc- curing when Sol Brand called a Student Council meeting in the ab- sence of the President. Following is a list of the major activities and accomplishments of the Spring Student Council: COUNCIL SEATED: H. Fishman, S. Brand, L. Rothkoff, G. Judd. FIRST ROW: 'S. Okalica, B. Kabak, G.

The age old problem of how to reward political sup- porters without overloading committees was solved by Rothkoff by his appointment of committees for every- fs- ' body and everything in sight. fe.g. Committees on O O1 l 5 Clubs, Committee of Trophy Case, etc.D 2. Clubs were revived for the ten day period following the elections and then reinterred. 3. The YUHS Ledger, with meager financial help from Q the Student Council, was printed by the photo-offset - 5 process. However, to prove the physical law which states inputIoutput the Ledger did away with news, reliable information, and the second and third editions. 4. Keys were distributed. 5 5. A photographer was hired to take individual pictures 'E of the students. E 6. The Senior Class formed a bowling team. is W This term's Student Council did show that Student Council meet- ings can be orderly riots and that the Students can work with the President in accomplishing a minimum. 53 The committees are a vital function of the Student Organization. The committees perform very necessary tasks. The com- mittees enable many students to pick up a few service points. Otherwise, the com- mittees do nothing. The committees should be abolished. ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ommittees LOST AND FOUND COMMITTEE REDUCTIONS COMMITTEE 5 I APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE CONSTITUTION COMMITTEE AWARDS COMMITTEE c Iw mrlemg G sms This year marked the first time in the history of the Academy News that the paper carried out its claim of being the official student publication of YUHS. While previous Academy News issues were docile, and catered to the administration, this year's newspaper became the first real spokesman of the student body. This change of policy was refiected in the vigorous editorials and biting features which reflected the will of the students. A late appointee to the position of Editor-in-Chief, Howard Jacobson managed to publish five issues of the Academy News. With the assistance of Associate Editor Sanford Budick. Managing Editors Harold Basch and Jason Wolfe, Jacobson gave the students a consistently good, up-to-date newspaper. The first page of the Academy News always contained the latest, most relevant, and most important news concerning any and all occurences in the school. Stanley Boylan, News Editor. excelled at ferreting out all the news that was fit to print. Ranging from Senior Surveys, to bowling tournaments, to new teachers, the news sec- tion was always informing and interesting. The editorials of the newspaper were forceful, potent, and actually beneficial. Whether the editorials were of a critical nature fas they often werel, a compliment- ary nature, or an advisory one, they always made their point clearly and forcefully. One six-hundred word editorial was censored by the administration, but it became so widely known to the students and faculty that it achieved its purpose. Especially noteworthy were the scintillating feature articles. Together with the usual Under the Dome . witty satires were penned by the feature editors of the paper. Charles Persky and Benjamin Weiss, masters of sly innuendo and biting sarcasm. wrote the 'iUnder the Domei' article. Zvi Gitelrnan usually wrote the bril- liant satires. which, together with the subtle humor of Julius Zelmanowitz, made for entertainment at its best. The sports page maintained the usual high standards. Bernie Horowitz and Josh Muss wrote interesting and exciting articles. An innovation this year was the in- clusion of box scores of almost every game. SEATED: J. Muss, H. Basch, H. Jacobson, S. Budick. STANDING Cleft to rightj: J. Zelmanowitz, L. Rothkoff, C. Persky, B.

YIZT Kumi x5ya06 The Arista League claims as its purpose, Nthe sustaining in secondary schools of an open and democratic organization which shall strive to unite those who aspire to attain the purest and the best for the institution, to which they belong. Thus states the preamble to the Arista constitution. It would seem, at first glance, that Arista is merely an organization which rewards the achievements of those who Haspire to the purest and the bestf' lndeed, until this year, the Arista did not undertake any responsibilities, other than serving as tea service at the annual Parent-Teacher meet- ings, However, with the election of Abe Genack, Zvi Gitelman, Uri Hain, Josh Muss, Lenny Rothkoff, Benjy Weiss, and Julie Zelmanowitz to the Arista, this attitude was markedly changed. Under the leadership of President Weiss, the Arista established a comprehensive tutoring system encompassing most of the school subjects. ln addition to this service, the Arista acted in its capacity as an honor society, proctored tests, substituted for teachers, and, in general, guided the student body. After interviewing several appli- cants, .the following seniors were added to the Arista at the beginning of the spring term: Harold Basch, Bernard Horowitz, Howard Messinger, Charles Persky. It is hoped that future Aristas will adhere to the constitution and follow the example set by the Arista of 1957-1958. Honor Society Although the Ledger did not come out very often, this newspaper served its purpose as a sup- plement to the Academy News. As always, the Ledger was hampered by the fact that every ar- ticle had to be typed and then mimeographed. This process consumed much time, and the Ledger, under the able editorship of Jason Wolfe, man- aged to come out only twice during the first term. Editor Wolfe, in his editorials, pleaded for more participation in extra-curricular activities and Auriel Spigelman wrote witty articles about the goings-on in the senior class. The Ledger also kept the students informed on the latest intramural results. At the beginning of the spring term, Joseph Lowin and Harold Basch assumed the editorship of the paper. They improved the Ledger consider- ably by publishing it by the photo-offset process and continued to give YUHS students an interest- ing, lively, and informative newspaper. LEDGER gb THE COMPACT 059 The Compact is the school's melting pot of liter- ature, Among the ingredients of this mixture are sections devoted to literature, science, and sports. This circular merger came about by an act of last year's Student Council. The purpose of this merger was to combine writ- ing which was formerly spread out through two different papers-Themes and Scientific, Thus, the Compact now includes science articles and literary contributions. In addition to these sections, the Compact features a sports section. devoted to in- teresting feature stories in the world of athletics. Benjamin Weiss and Joshua Muss put out four issues of the Compact. They managed to do so despite the great difficulties encountered in getting out a mimeographed magazine. DR.

As the ELCHANITE went to press, the council was busily engaged in preparing a list of activities designed to heighten the enjoyment of our last half-year in school. The projected Senior Play and Senior Prom will be the crowning achieve- ments of this most eliicient governing body. Although it is a moot point whether Service Squad members make more noise in the halls than the students, or vice-versa, it is quite obvious that the Service Squad is a necessary activity. Where else can a senior with a hatred of lower termers give vent to his anger? Discipline and punctuality are the by-words of the SS members, who always make it a point to leave class precisely live min- utes before the bell.

In the fall term, the Math Team defeated our perennial adversary, the Bronx High School of Science, four times, while dropping only one meet. The high scorer was Benjamin Weiss with twenty-three points. This marked the third straight time that he led in scoring. The prospects for next year are very bright since only two members of the team will be graduated. fr? SEATED: H. Zuckerman, Z. Gitelman, H. Fishman, M. Galanter, M. Hochstein. STANDING: M. Volk, D.

Debating Although the debating team is often con- sidered just an excuse for two or three as- semblies every year, it is really an integral part of our school's extracurricular activities. It is the safety valve through which the forensically inclined student, i.e. the loud- mouth, lets off his steam. Seriously, the de- bating team does do an important job, in training students to speak well. In the debate with Central, the debaters were knocked off balance by the pulchritude of the opposing team. and thus lost the debate. After the de- bate was over the YUHS men regained their senses and tried to protest the judges' decision on the grounds that the judges were Pasul Mishum Ohev, fSanhedrin 27bJ but to no avail. However, in all its other encounters the debating team remained undefeated. git?

This room is none other than the famed YUHS Library, the lair of our beloved mentor Dr. Shapiro. The care of this storehouse of the wisdom of the ages is entrusted to the library squad. These librarians, inter alia, catalogue books, record withdrawals and returns, straighten out shelves, and search for the missing library book. This year several new things happened in this room. For one, the first two study periods were held in the audi- torium and the library was closed during these periods. For another, a store was opened up in the library selling used shavers lHamevin Yavinl. But taken as a hole the library is. 64 L. Amsel, A. E. Newman, Dr. Shapiro, M. Rothman Chess Team Under the captaincy of Irving Rubin- son, the checker team became an active extra-curricular organization. The team maneuvered its way to an undefeated sea- son. Monty Penkower, Howard Jaffe, and Captain Rubinson combined to defeat HILI by a score of 3-2. In their next outing, the checkermen took the measure of YUHS-B by a score of IBM-lk. YUHS next defeated RJJ and Flatbush, copping first place in the Inter-Yeshiva Checker League. At the beginning of the fall term, Barry Frankel, a junior, took over the captaincy of the Chess Team. With many of last year's starters returning, the team man- aged to remain unbeaten during the course of the Fall Term. This feat can be ex- plained by the fact that the pawn pushers engaged in only one match, defeating Brooklyn YUHS. . One of the first acts of the Spring G.O. was to appoint Sam Vogel, a senior, to the captaincy of the team. Under his lead- ership, two matches were played by the end of the first month of the Spring Term. The team traveled out to Far Rockaway where they drubbed H.I.L.I., four boards to one. Chaim Berlin was the next team to fall prey to the mastery of YUHS' Chess stal- warts. The well-known Checkmate,' Ben- dow led the team to victory as he inspired Melvin Pell and Barry Frankel to defeat their opponents. Benjamin Weiss and Stanley Boylan graciously conceded draws since the members of the Chaim Berlin Team wanted to go home, Two other matches are scheduled for the latter part of the term. fi ,.., . , Q Checker Team 65 Gm x ,J t 5' l The Tennis Team, captained by Howie Zucker- man, a three year Varsity veteran, can look forward to a banner year.

YUHS, swimmers outclassed the rest of the schools at the first Inter- Yeshiva meet, copping every first place. Yeshiva commenced to drown the opposition, winning a smashing victory in the Inter-Yeshiva High School Championship meet. 66 g, 'X 4 M Q Kneeling: P. Hershenfeld, A. Genack H. Zeliger. Standing: J.

However, as the game progressed, it was obvious that three men carried almost the entire load for YUHS. Captain Abe Genack, Lenny Schapira, and Hank Resnick scored fifty of YUHS,s fifty-two points. Following a win over a fairly strong alumni aggregation, the mini-mites took on RJJ. The Red Raiders were figured to be the chief challengers for the Jewish High School League crown. With both teams playing sloppy ball, YUHS led at the half 24--15. How- ever, in the second half, RJJ began to display its vaunted power. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Resnick fouled out, having scored only seven points, as a result of being double-teamed. Roke- ach now had an easy time clearing the boards. Because of a sprained ankle, Abe Genack was unable to leap for rebounds. Coupled with Schapira's inability to score, this led to YUHS' defeat by a score of 418-38. The lack of a strong' bench hurt YUHS badly in this vital game. This foreshadowed happenings in future games. The next two games saw Captain Cenack emerge as the team's high scorer. Scoring a total of forty-four points, the Captain led YUHS to wins over Franklin School and Brooklyn Yeshiva. ln their next outing, YUHS played a rematch with RJJ. Playing determined basketball, a hustling YUHS team was losing by a scanty margin going into the third quarter. ln this quarter YUHS scored nineteen points, wresting the lead from RJJ, Resnick kept YUHS in the lead with his clutch shooting in the fourth quarter. RU kept trading baskets with YUHS and managed to tie the score with a minute left to play. After YUHS missed a shot, RU recovered and scored. With a few seconds left, Lenny Schapira canned a shot. YUHS rooters shouted victoriously but the referees disallowed the basket because it came a split second after the buzzer. Once again the team had played brilliantly for two quarters and had dropped a close decision. , tx E UIQ? va After the RJJ defeat, the team took on a Barnard aggregation which was rated the top private school team in New York City. The mites had their worst shooting day of the season and their well- coached opponents defeated them easily by a score of 54-38. T.A. then returned to the Yeshiva League rolling over B.T.A. as Cenack and Resnick scored 23 and 22 respectively. Continuing its winning ways in the MJHSL, Yeshiva romped over Flatbush in two encounters. Abe Genack scored thirty-four points in the first victory, thus gaining 1958 high scoring honors for one game. YUHS journeyed up to Riverdale to play their traditional Ivy League foe. Ace rebounder and scorer Hank Resnick was sick and his absence was felt all through the game. YUHS frittered away a ten point lead and Riverdale led by three at the close of the third period. Genack's three point play tied it up and the teams were at an even draw as regulation time ran out. Schapira sank two fouls near the end of the overtime but Riverdale miraculously tied the game with two seconds to go. Riverdale then sunk a foul shot in the usudden death overtime that followed, and won the game 50-4-9, The mini-mites had dropped another heart-breaker. Coach Wettstein's boys faced next their traditional rival, Cathe- dral High School. Moving the ball well, YUHS played the taller Cathedralites to a standstill for three quarters. In the last period, the mites broke quickly and held a four point lead with three min- utes to go. Then the roof fell in. As the result of Yeshiva walking infractions and errant passes, Cathedral closed in and took the lead. Coach Wettstein pulled out his first team in disgust and Cathedral poured it on, Winning 64--46. Following the examination period lay off Yeshiva returned to the basketball wars taking on Rhodes. Rhodes quickly burst out in front but Resnick,s magnificent rebounding and the accurate shoot- ing of Abe Genack and Lenny Schapira enabled YUHS to close the gap. The lead see-sawed back and forth and Yeshiva found itself in a familiar situation as playing time ended with the score tied. The game went into overtime. Resnickis superlative rebounding and effective drives led YUHS in the overtime. A fighting Rhodes team fought valiantly and the teams were deadlocked at the end of the overtime. Remembering the Riverdale nightmare, Coach Wettstein remarked drily, Hwelve had experience with this sort of thing before. YUHS got the tap in the usudden death overtime and Genack shot, missed, but alertly re- covered his own rebound and tallied the winning basket. The captain had once again led YUHS to victory. HILI was the next team to fall prey to Yeshiva. Abe Cenack once again led the scoring parade, tallying twenty seven points. Ramazis band-box was the site of YUHS' next encounter. The Rams, accustomed to playing in closets, jumped to a 29-22 lead at the end of the third quarter. Aided by the absence of Resnick and the effective double teaming of Genack, Ramaz built up a good lead. As in previous games, the mini-mites began to pour it on towards the end, but the clock ran out with Ramaz ahead 4-0-38. Seeking to regain the winning touch, YUHS took on Cathedral again. T.A. led at the half 34-32 by virtue of Schapira's amazing drives and jumpshots. Playing superlative ball, the mites jumped to a 49-39 led midway through the third quarter. However, it was the old story all over again. When Resnick fouled out, Cathedral found itself back in the ball game, and, helped by some fiagrantly bad calls by the refs, eked out a 73-70 win. Avenging their previous loss, Yeshiva conquered Ramaz in a return match at F.l.T., crushing the Rams 54-23. The mites then drubbed Bentley 109-44 as Genack scored 33, Resnick 24, and 'WWC i 5 -sas? Schapira 22. In the first of the MJHSL playoff games, the team beat Ramaz 46-33 as Hank Resnick played one of his best games, showing the determination and hustle that had so often been lacking in previous games. On March 15, YUHS met RJJ in the MJHSL Championship game, Led by Lenny Schapira's great shooting, YUHS managed to maintain small leads and led 24-13 at half time. In the second half, RU used their superior height to advantage and a tremendous surge put the Red Raiders ahead 32-27. But the mini-mites refused to give up and Lenny Schapira's basket early in the fourth quarter tied the score 40-40. However, RJJ then went off on a seven point splurge and kept the lead until the final buzzer sounded. YUHS went down to defeat 59-47. Thus ended a season which had many ups and downs. Almost every game was a close contest right down to the wire. With a little bit of luck, YUHS might have won about five or six of the close ones.

X rg I fl T .J ggi if l by Charles Persky The storm moved swiftly over the wind- swept hills, bringing with it soft down- pours of warm rain. Even the heavens cry . thought Flying Cloud as he urged his horse onward into the storm. The steady pounding of his horse's hooves caused his mind to wander from the im- mediate surroundings and the events of the past week raced through his brain like a bad dream. The fight between his father and Black Knife, the sudden attack while his father slept. and. most horrible of thoughts. the sight of his father's lifeblood in a pool beside his bed. These memories passed: only one thing filled his brain- revenge. The thought of Black Knife lying dead was now the only thing that kept him going. lt was a deadly passion that gripped him and drove him onward, closer and closer to where he knew Black Knife must be hiding. closer and closer to the culmination of this deadly chase, closer to revenge. The sudden crackling of a branch be- neath his horse's hoof startled him from his reverie and he began to check the surroundings for landmarks. There in the near distance was Eagle Mountain. Flying Cloud knew that in a small cave on the side of the mountain stood Black Knife, on his guard and nervous. He decided to leave his horse tied to a nearby tree and go on foot. llntying his quiver. he took it off and put it near his horse. for an ar- row was too swift for this murderous enemy. Flying Cloud checked the blade of his gleaming knife. and then started up the muddy path. ig Inner Spirits In a cave on the side of the mountain sat Black Knife. He knew that life as he had known it before was now ended. The annual hunts, the pleasant trading of stories at the camp-fire, all this was no more. Why , he asked himself, VVhat made me do this terrible thingf' They had been friends since youth. They had shared both bread and blood. 4'Anger is a terrible thingn, thought he to himself. It had made him kill an old and trusting friend. Now it was only a matter of time before the dead man's son caught up with him, and then, it would be the end. But at least it would be an end. There would be no more sleepless nights, during which his con- science tore his heart out. Thus in the fevered brain of Black Knife death be- came a welcome thing, a savior, which would rescue him from the endless torture his conscience caused him. To be able to sleep and forget the past, the miserable blood-stained past. Flying Cloud stole noiselessly up the mountain pass, being careful not to loosen any rocks from the rain drenched soil and expose his position. It was a matter of a few minutes before he stood by the en- trance of the cave, his heart pounding with the thought of the deed he must now perform. Mustering his strength, he edged slowly into the mouth of the cave, giving his eyes a chance to get used to the dark. Suddenly, Flying Cloud spotted his ad- versary and leaping through the air, Hung him quickly to the ground, He now slowly raised his knife to strike. Then he saw the look on Black Knife's face. It was not a look of anguish, not a look of fear, only a smile and a sort of anticipation of what was to come. Flying Cloud slowly lowered his knife and raised himself to his feet. 'iWhy don't you kill mein cried Black Knife. The young man turned and slowly walked out of the cave. f'Kill me, kill me , cried the old man, and then sunk to the ground sobbing hysterically. Flying Cloud turned as he left the cave and looked at the old man lying on the floor. The soft patter of the rain was the only noise that broke the stillness. Gone was his hate, his passion. All he felt now was overwhelm- ing triumph. 'fWhat sharper blade is there than an old one's conscience, thought the brave, as he made his way down the side of the mountain.

Granted that he had set up shop in one of the lousiest neighbor- hoods in the south side of Chicago-Reillyis Pool Emporium to be exact-but he was not really re- sponsible for this situation. ,Ioe had just shipped in from 'Frisco, hotly pursued by a trio of hoods attempting to carry out the revenge of their somewhat indignant boss. It seems that Joe had overstepped the bounds of ex- cusable camaradarie with one of the boss' favorite dolls, and . . . well, enough for that. The final re- sult of this misadventure was too painfully evi- dent. ,Ioe Vargas, one of the best straight pool shooters in the country, had sunk to depths almost too low for his over-fed ego to endure. There was, of course, only one remedy for the present state of affairs-money, and fast. Then he could begin to think seriously about his plans for the future, fore- most among which was his scheme to rescue the aforementioned doll from the clutches of the boss. But enough for philosophizing. Joe was a pool- hustler first, and a philosopher never. Accordingly, Joe selected the best 20-ounce cue he could find in the wall rack, one with an ivory point and a tight butt, chalked the tip, and broke the rack of balls on what seemed to be the best of the four tables. He tried to break safe, a straight pool break. The break didnit work, however, the rack of balls spread wide, five of them came out into the table, and the cue ball stopped in the middle. It would have left an opponent wide open for a big run. ,loe shuddered. , He pocketed the 15 balls, missing only once-a long shot that had to be cut thin into a far corner -and he felt better, making balls. He had little confidence on the hard ones, he was awkward, but he still knew the game, he knew how to break up little clusters of balls on one shot so that he could pocket them on the next. He knew how to play po- sition with very little English on the cue, by shoot- ing 'fnaturalw shots, and letting the speed of the cue ball do the work. He could still figure the spread, plan out his shots in advance from the positions of the balls on the table, and he knew what to shoot at first. JULIUS ZELMANOWITZ He kept shooting for about three hours. Several times other players came in and played for a while, but none paid any attention to him, and none stayed long. About four o'clock Joe's eyes lit up-his quarry had walked in. Fats Bennington must have weighed 300 pounds. His face seemed to be bloated around the eyes like the face of an Eskimo, so that he was always squinting, His arms, hanging from the short sleeves of his white silk shirt, were pink and dough-like. ,loe noticed his hands, they were soft-looking, white and delicate. He wore three rings, one with a diamond. He had on dark greeen, wide suspen- ders. 'I l7-lu- - Y-1 r -rf Q C Q o -1 E' F, ii- When they were introduced, Fats said, How are you, loe?,' but didn't offer his hand. You a good pool player, Joe?,' Fats continued, his eyes scan- ning ,Ioe's face. Fair, I like playing. Straight poolf, Fats grinned. aThat,s my game too, Joe. But one thing. You play for money, Joe? I mean, you gamble? When the bet's right. Fats grinned even more broadly. '6You play for a hundred, and we play a few. '4Fair enoughf' Joe said, as calmly as he could. They uncovered the table and racked the balls. Joe broke, making it safe, but not too safe. He undershot, purposely, and left the cue ball almost a foot away from the end rail. They played around, shooting safe, for a while. Neither of them tried to run more than 40 at a turn. It would have looked like a game between only fair players, except that neither of them missed very often. In a tight Spot they didnit try anything fancy, just shot a safe and let the other man figure it out. ,loe played safe on some shots that he was sure he could make, he didn't want to show his hand. Not yet. They kept playing and, -after a while, Joe started winning more often. ,KTW IT U 1 i ru A ' I 5-,. IA. Y Q. r :P by-X , 1 fix ' ..-. ' J I 5' Q 'Il . 5 :Kish .ji After about three hours he was five games ahead, and shooting better all the time. Then, when he won still another game, ,loe said,'6You,re losing money, Fats. Maybe we should quit. Quit? You think we should quit? Fats took a big silk handkerchief from his side pocket and wiped his face. 'gHow much money you won, Joe? he said. That last makes a grandf' He felt, suddenly, a little tense. It was coming. The big push. Suppose we play for a 1000, loef' He put the handkerchief back in his pocket. HThen we see who quitsf' 4'Fine.', He felt really nervous now. But he knew he would get over it. Nervousness didn't count. At 1000 a game he would be in clover and in San Francisco-if he didn't lose. Fats racked the balls and Joe broke. His hand shook a littleg but the break was a perfect one. Every pool hustlerf' he thought, has his good days and his bad days, but today had to be a good day. It had to be. You shoot pretty goodf' Fats said, looking at the safe table that ,loe had left him. But he played safe, barely tipping the cue ball off one of the balls down at the foot of the table and returning it back to the end rail. ,loe tried to return the safe by repeating the same thingg but the cue ball caught the object ball too thick and he brought out a shot, a long one, for Fats. Fats stepped up, shot the ball in, played position, and ran out the rest of the rack, Then he ran out another rack and .loe sat down to watchg there was nothing he could do now. Fats ran 78 points and then. seeing a difficult shot, played him safe. He had been afraid that something like that might happen. He tried desperately to fight his way out of the game, but couldn't seem to get into the clear long enough for a good run. Fats beat him badly. very badly-125 to 30-and he had to give back the 1000 dollars from his pocket. It hurt. ' What was more. Fats rose from the table, turned to Joe. and murmurred with an air of finality, You were pretty good, Joe. Thanks for the after- noon. See you again sometime. Out in the street again, Joe started to whistle as he made his way down the back streets that led to his room, Once inside, he opened a sticker-covered suitcase, pulled out the drawers of the bureau, and hurriedly commenced packing. ln a few minutes ,loe stopped whistling, for he was now thinking of the tomato he had left behind in ,Frisco, and whom he was to see again in a few hours. When his packing was finished, his thoughts returned once more to the present and he grinned like the proverbial cat. Reaching into his breast pocket, he produced a diamond ring, easily four carats, an emerald-studded tie clasp, and a bulging wallet neatly monogrammed on the corner with the words 'cFats Benningtonfi As I said. every pool hustler has his good days and his bad days, but I also said, Joe was not just an ordinary hustler. PARTNERS By Zvi Gitelman Manuel was a familiar figure to the regular riders on the Lexington Ave. sub- way. Every day he would pay his fare and board a subway, remaining underground until 9 o'clock at night. Then he would ride back to his starting point and leave for home-a flophouse in the Bowery. Manuel, the blind beggar, was a pitiful sight. His bedraggled clothes tried to cover what once must have been a powerful body. but was now a battered. shapless hulk. People were easily affected by Manuelis sordid figure-the crippled body, the closed .eyes which seemed to be straining to see light, the matted hair and the expression of infinite sadness which creased the corners of his mouth. Manuel plied his pitiful trade day after day, month after month, year after year. He hoarded his money carefully and was never known to buy himself new clothes. He ate a skimpy meal of bread and coffee twice a day. Manuel was a silent man who never befriended anyone. One night, in the basement where his shapeless, bloated mattress lay among twenty others, Manuel heard someone call his name. The voice was that of a young man. The man said his name was Pete. He told Manuel that he, too, was a cripple, and that he was also a beggar who roamed the subways. He asked Manuel to work with him so that the two unforunates could make more profits. Then they could split their earnings, Pete suggested. Manuel shook his head grufliy in a negative re- sponse and lay down to sleep. But Pete longed for companionship and the next day, Pete again made his offer. Manuel refused. All through the week, Pete pestered the blind man and, finally, Manuel relented. Tomorrow they would go to the station, each taking a different train. Pete would meet Manuel at the station at nine o'clock that night. Manuel realized that Pete might bring in a handsome sum of money and so he reluctantly agreed to the plan. The next night, Manuel knew that he had struck a good bargain for he felt the coldness of many coins dropping into his hand. Pete had harvested a good yield and gave Manuel a tidy sum so that the gleanings of the two would be shared equally. invariably, it was Pete who would deposit money in his partneris hand at night, for Manuel collected far less money during the day. But Pete was a spender. He would go out and buy himself a bottle of cheap wine or a second-hand pair of shoes. Manuel put almost all of his coins in the sack which hung around his neck, Once a week he would exchange his coins for bills, counting the paper carefully and putting it in the money belt which never left his waist. Pete would urge his companion to come with him to the bar, but Manuel merely shook his head and said not a word. Pete saw Manuel hoard the money every day, every week, and he wondered at the sum that must lay strapped around Manuells waist. Pete spent a lot of money. Times became difflcult. People gave less and less every day. The two beggars would meet at the station at night and few coins were counted. Pete no longer went to the bar 'frequently though his heart and stomach craved the warming wine. Man- uel remained silent and unperturbed. Pete was growing thirsty. He watched Manuel hoard his money and Pete suppressed his desire. Pete became thirstier, bolder. Manuel put away money every day. The desire became almost a craze. Manuel saved. Pete became thearstier, bolder. Manuel hoarded. Pete became more and more envious and succumbed. Finally the cripple resolved to rob the blind one. Two nights passed and each time Pete's nerve failed him. But on the third night, the cripple was resolute in his intentions and. when all were slumbering heavily in the dingy basement, Pete rose stealthily, and limped cautiously over to Manuel's mattress. He saw that the belt was still tied securely around Manuel's waist. He glanced warily around him and carefully took out a shiny steel knife. Manuel stirred uneasily and turned over on his back but gave no sign of awakening. Besides. he could never see Pete. Pete glanced about him once more. then he saw Manuelis hollow, tortured face. Pete let his hand fall slowly to his side. He lowered his head slowly, As he did so, he saw the money belt. full, bulging. and promising. He ground his teeth silently and steeled himself. The nostrils of his nose dilated furiously. He raised the knife once more and began to bring it down on the blind one. Suddenly, silently and swiftly, Manuel, with an enormous effort, leaped out of the bed. caught Pete's arm in the midst of its nefarious plunge, and quickly disarmed his companion. He clamped a hand on Pete's stunned mouth and punched him in the nose. Then he gripped Pete's neck with his hands and began to squeeze with an ever increasing, almost maniacal strength. ,lust as the last whisper of life was leaving Pete's crippled body, Manuel opened one eye, winked silently and laughed. I thought you were a friend. and you thought I was blind. he said as he released the limp head from his trembling hands. l'? ' .' 10th ANNIVERSARY Whereas Israel's other festivals have a tradition going back thousands of years, Independence Day is a newcomer on the calendar. In the ten years since it made its appearance it has taken its place along with the other holidays and has ber-ome one of the gilyest days of the year. This year's Independence Day outshone the nine previous celebrations. The Tenth Anniversary Year was officially inaugurated two days before Independence Day on April 22 when 120 members of the Knesset convened in solemn session at Jerusalem. Every year, the day before Independence Day is observed as Memorial Day in memory of those who gave their lives for the nation. Candles are lit in their memory in synagogues and in fifteen mililafi' Ceme' teries. Flags are at half-mast. Veterans of the Haganah, the pre-state defense force, kindle the eternal light in ceremonies throughout the country. Like all Jewish holidays. Independence Day started at Sundown April 23. .According to the Hebrew calendar, this date corresponds to the tenth anniversary of the historic 15th of May, 1948. when the State of Israel came into being. The speaker of the Knesset. Mr. Joseph Sprinzak, ofhcially opened the holiday in a cere- mony on Mount Herzl, Jerusalem. in the presence of the President of the State. The ceremony was relayed by radio to gatherings in every part of the country. After this ceremony. the popu- lation took over. Hundreds of stages had been built throughout Israel. and they were the center of the Independence Day entertainment. The larger towns and cities had a number of stages. Practically all of Israel's entertainment talent had been rounded up in the biggest talent hunt the country had ever known. Every stage presented a programme of singers, instruments, dancers and dance groups, choirs. comedians and other entertainers who performed far into the night. Before the entertainment on the stages got underway, the Armed Forces staged military games at the Ramat Gan stadium outside Tel Aviv. in which parachute jumps, evacuation by helicopters. simulated battles and mass calisthenics were some of the features. The famous Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra gave a special Independence Day Concert in the new Fredrick Mann Auditorium, in Tel Aviv, performing Bee-thoven's Ninth Symphony under the baton of Raphael Kubelik, with soloists from London's Convent Garden Opera. Residents and guests of Haifa watched a naval display from the amphitheatre on the slopes of Mt. Carmel before gathering in the streets. All the events mentioned above took place on Independence eve. On the great day itself. April 24. Jerusalem, as capital. was naturally the center of attraction. In the newly completed stadium, built especially for the anniversary year. the armed forces held the traditional review and paraded through the city without incident. Featuring the latest tanks, artillery. and a body of women soldiers, the parade was held under the protest and poised guns of the Jordanian Army, In the evening Haifaites and holiday crowds from other parts of the country once again took their seats in the amphitheatre to witness the giant pageant entitled. The Rebirth of the State. Some 2,500 persons, including choirs and dancers, presented the history of the country-from the first settlements until the birth of the State. i 4 i i Independence Day Stamp ,Emblem of Tourism in Israel 79 On Friday, April 25, a group of thirty-two men took their places around a table in the Tel Aviv Museum. A few hours before the beginning of the Sabbath they took the same places they held on a Friday afternoon ten years ago. May 15, l948 was the date on State came into being. For months Arab regular and irregular forces had been attacking Jewish population centers. The Mandatory Government was suspending its services and preparing to leave the country. The National Council of 37 members, which had been setlup two months previously, worked feverishly to prepare for independence. At midnight on May l2, after an all- day meeting. the I3 members who made up the National Administration-the cabinet-to-he-got around to deciding the name of the new nation. A committee led by Moshe Sharett continued to work that night to draft the Declaration of Independence. On May 13, the draft was cleared by the National Administration. On the 14th, it was submitted to the National Council meeting in Tel Aviv. Tht final text was approved. Since May I5 was a Sabbath, the proclamation of the new state had to take place on Friday the 14th. Immediately after approving the Declaration of Indea pendence, the 37 men of the council rushed to the Tel Aviv Museum, where an assembly of several hundred invited guests awaited them. David Ben-Curion read the Declaration, after which the 37 signed the scroll. The Declaration just voted on could not be transferred to the scroll, so the signatories signed a blank scroll, and the text was filled in later. In this modest ceremony, squeezed in between frantic activity and Sabbath rest, the State of Israel was born. which the British Mandate ceased to exist, and the Jewish On the Friday afternoon of April 25, 1958 the hall of the museum looked just as it did 10 years ago. With the portrait of Theodore Herzl, the founder of Zionism hung behind the table. Mr. Ben-Curion addressed the former council. after which a plaque commemorating the Proclamation of the State of Israel was unveiled. Five of the 37 members of the national council have died since 1948. The remaining 32 have taken their place in the government of the State. Some have become members of parliament, some ministers. One of them is now Prime Minister. another is President of the State of Israel. This rich program launched the Tenth Anniversary Year celebrations. It was only the beginning. Events were scheduled for a whole year. until May, 1959. A recordrbreaking number of tourists from every corner of the globe have been Hocking into Israel by air and sea in anticipation of the celebrations. Every city, town, and village reflected the festive atmosphere that is sweeping the country. For Independence Day itself, streets and buildings were festooned with colorful streamers, banners, and buntings. Thousands of apartment dwellers devised original decorations which could be seen from almost every balcony. Shopkeepers vied with one another in planning decorative window displays, while public buildings and many office buildings had their facades illuminated with long streams of electric bulbs, floodlights and other lighting effects. The unprecedented joy and celebration shown by the people of Israel refiects the rejoicing of Jews all over the world. This Tenth Anniversary is a landmark in the struggle of the .Iews against all their oppressors for the past 5000 years, While all their former antagonists exist only in history books, the Jewish Nation lives. on. Israel will go on to celebrate anniversaries l'olam vaed. HAROLD BASCH THE SEX DETERMINATION OF A DOORKNOB Surprisingly enough, in the past decade, very little has been written on the life and loves of the common doorknob. This spe- cies is more often referred to by its Latin name, Dornobus Americanus. However, since this name is so frequently confused with another type of doorknob, namely, Dornabus Americanusf I will refer to it as the common doorknob. Determining the sex of the common doorknob has mystified even the greatest doorknob-sex-determinators since the in- vention of the doorknob? fCredit for the invention of the common doorknob is giv- en to a Rtpsian named Ivan Doornavichj Nevertheless, a formula has been invented fthe inventor's name is being withheld on his mother's requestl to aid in the gender classification of the Doornobus American- usg that is, the common doorknob. This formula is as follows: W G- IP3 x However, what C, t, P, and x stand for, has yet to be decided. 1 It is interesting to note that this name came from a misprint in a newspaper published in 4-56 B.C.E. by Publius Print- ing Co. Zlt is very interesting to note that ac- cording to the Egyptian Patent OHice, doorknobs were, invented in 668 B.C.E. which was almost six years before the invention of the door. QOOPLYLOAJ By JAY EISENSTAT fl The most accepted way of telling wheth- er a doorknob is male or female, is to listen to the, squeek that emerges from the doorknob when it is twisted slowly to the left. iliiemember this method will only work if the doorknob has not been oiled within twelve years of the testli If the squeak is very -high pitched, it can, in nine out of ten cases, be correctly identified as a male. This theory does not work for both male common doorknobs and female common doorknobs. In other words if the squeak is low in pitch it does not necessarily mean that the doorknob is female. Unfortunately, the only possible way of finding a female doorknob is by first finding, by the afonnentioned proc- ess, all male doorknobs in existence and then, by the process of elimination, find and identify all female doorknobs. it ,- tv W ,x-as 1-Q YXKX S 1 , i L V I ' fl I I Q f i P y A X if i.
