Despite his probing and peer- ing, however, the scientific man seems to be tragically unable to understand the true character of the world. He is not attuned to the spiritual nature of the Creation. Only the artist is able to grasp the hidden meaning of life and to capture its intangible essences. The liberal arts free the mind of man for a union with the spirit. They allow his personality to become acutely sensitive to the rhythm of human experience, to the mute expression of God's will in Nature, to words, forms, and movements which fire the soul with un- speakable passion. The uniqueness of our institution is its dedication to the idea of the fusion of the intellect and the soul. It is fitting, then, that this book, a creation of the graduates, be similarly dedicated to the conception of the arts as harmonizing the expressions of the body, soul, and mind in man's pursuit of his divine purpose.

The element of highest worth in this creation, Man, was formed in the image of God. Thus, man was given the power to transform and to modify, to take meaningless matter, and, like his cre- ator, imbue it with a part of his spirit. The eyes and the fingers of the artist became instruments for expressing the feelings of his soul. Art became the medium for the expres- sion and transmission of the most profound human emotions. An essential characteristic of all art is that it seeks to interpret rather than to represent. Music, perhaps the most abstract of art forms, is almost entirely interpretive. The ear be- comes attuned to harmony and cacophony and realizes them to be abstractions of human experience and passions. In painting and sculp- ture there exists a more pronounced conHict between mechanical representation and indi- vidual interpretation, between realism and idealism. The eye has not received the neces- sary aesthetic education to avoid judging the merits of the individual work solely on the basis of its similarity with its subject matter. If this were the criterion for judging artistic merit, photography would be the predominant form of art. Yet, photography holds low rank among the arts, for it must accept nature un- modified. On the other hand, the painter and the sculptor cannot be satished with the repre- sentation of an abstract intellectual concept, for this would not inspire the emotional exultation which is art's goal. The true artist is able to resolve in his work this delicate conflict be- tween actual and ideal existence. Like the earth and the sun, the artistic cre- ation embodies the true spirit of the individual artist. On a minor scale, this creation has as much reason for being as the universe itself. Allen Gribczfz The dark mantle of time that cloaks manls primordial origin has given rise to centuries of speculation as to his individual worth and the meaning of his life. Is 'man-creature' a pre- tentious cosmic accident, governed by natural phenomena and all-explicable by the rationale? Or is he the refiection of a divine intelligence which, in the course of history, has made mani- fest itself to the human mind, made man the possessor of a universal ethic and given his experience substance and importance? Is life the tedious unfolding of ludicrous satire as shallow as its author, or an encounter with pro- found reality? Art, in its interpretation of human experi- ence, seems on the Whole to favor the espousal of a human sublimity which transcends rational explanation and is part of an historic spirit which like a gull hovers over the sea of life. Its concentration on both thought and emotion manifests a philosophy of human dualism. The mind can discern an object of beauty from the gnarled rock that to a bird represents but a temporary perch. But the dramatist, the projector of Life, well knows that the unfor- seeable and unique reactions of every human being cannot easily be understood or rationaliz- ed but only crystallized, preserved as an image in the mindls eye and later reenacted. It is the inter-action of mind and emotion that moti- vates the artist to reflect human experience in the light of both. Wliat better example than the portrait of the vvizened ancient. That knit- ted brow is woven of intense speculation, those gray hairs are the end of many years of re- moved observation, but those liquid eyes mir- ror more than reason. Peer into them and see a generation of pain and pleasure, of sor- row and joy, of complexities beyond literal articulation, but poignantly reflected in deepest silence. i In the Arts is painted-in liquid, in stone, in Words-the depth of the human soul, the height of the human Spirit, the picture of Life in its innumerable ramifications, its immense J - -W--W, . . . 42941 f , 4' ev ,f - . - aa- X fx!!-e Q:lN ,ga f fff' X Q if I 41 ff' TMA 5' .J-flvdsxsi-Ura: 5 lffvavwledaff nge FmuxW ' X ie- -fera- f I JI ' -,, I j f ., f , , ,. , . ffl , ' ,',. . , -V :LT -.V - f ,J f 1'-114 1 ' ' ,ff ' 'inf f-- x.'

N. Y. 10033 iliicob To his many former students at Yeshiva, Mr. Stanley M. Cohen is known as a gifted teacher of English and as a devoted guidance counselor sincerely concerned with the personal problems of his students. Those who came into more intimate contact with him recognize in Mr. Cohen a scrupulously ethical individual, deeply religious, dedicated to artistic goals, a man possessed of unusual depth of soul. Mr. Cohen is Zealously devoted to the ideals of American democracy. While in America he spoke often of his desire to see the uprooting of racial prejudice and of his pride in America's progress towards that end. He urged his students to be- come active in civic affairs in later life, affirming that apathy breeds tyranny. Only the terms of the International Educational Exchange Act prevented him from as- suming an active role in our country's politics. Mr. Cohen's ties to Yeshiva University were strengthened by his strong belief in the principles upon which this institution is founded. In his opinion, the glorious intellectual and material achievements of Western civilization do not signal man's abandonment of moral restrictions. Only his humble adherence to a code which manifests itself not only in ceremonial tradition but also in ethical behavior towards corporate society and its component individuals justifies man's existence. The theme of our yearbook, the liberalism and spirituality inherent in the na- ture of the Arts,', is intimately connected with the life of this dedicated teacher. Mr. Cohen's philosophy of life represents his personal synthesis of acute intellectual and aesthetic sensitivity with an equally strong attachment to the profound truths of Iudaism.

Duh . . . maybe Charley knows The three fields of art, the fine arts, the arts of conduct, and the liberal arts represent in es- sence our society's educational goals. The fine arts, concerned with the attainment of the aesthet- ically pleasing, the arts of conduct, idealizing moral and ethical perfection and the liberal arts, representing intellectual and physical well-rounded- ness are all desirable products of our educational philosophy. The dedicated faculty of Yeshiva University High School exemplifies a successful synthesis of these artistic values. Our teachers, the sculptors of the student body, have labored painstakingly to imbue their creation with a similar set of values. These molders of men have earned our lasting gratitude.

Dear Graduates, From the vantage-point of forty-eight years of continuous relationship with Yeshiva University and its high schools, nearly all of which have been spent in an administrative and directive capacity. I have been a witness of the phenomenal growth of the original high school lTalmudical Academy, now Yeshiva University High School for Boys, Manhattanl, 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 half as many students as we now have faculty members, from a few-and-twenty youngsters in their early teens to its present enroll- ment of nearly six hundred young men between thirteen and eighteen years of age. During that period of time I have seen over four thousand young men land young women, if we include our Brooklyn and Manhattan Yeshiva University high schoolsl go forth from Yeshiva's sacred halls to continue their education, most of them in our own Yeshiva and its colleges, and some in other institutions of learning. What advice, what counsel can I give you on the threshold of 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. Don't heed to slogans. and do not follow blindly the leadership of the blind. Think for yourselves and try to figure out what will be best for you in the life you are planning to lead. When you go to college, as nearly everyone of you 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, whatever the causes may be, is to worship at the feet of mathematics and the 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 educated man is one who has contact with ftouchesl many of the facets of one's environment. In planning your educa- tion 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. 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 happiness on your parents, and on all those who have had a hand in the shaping of the formative years of your lives. GRADUATION MESSAGES Dear Graduates, in the occa- Graduation 1963! What thoughts arise on contemplating these vital events life of a student! In my association with Yeshiva, there have been many such sions, yet each one is a new experience, with new feelings, new thoughts. You are unique in that all of your four years of schooling have been spent here during the so-called space age. In that time you have joined in cheering man's successes in the realm of the unknown. You have also been disappointed at times, by his failures. While this age of space and the exploration of the unknown have generated excitement and unprecedented interest on your part, it is imperative that you recognize the responsibility this new era imposes upon you. You must not allow the scientific purposes of these thrusts to become merely tools in our international political wars. You must not think that because man has been able to do so much, he has become his own master. You must not allow your essential purpose in life to be deterred by these headline-making events. We live now in a world divided-divided geometrically into two opposite ideological camps, with intense, almost mortal, strife between them, and engulfing all nations, great and small, threatening us with fatal annihilation. We Jews, in particular, are in the very midst of this struggle, and, unfortun- ately, we find ourselves in both camps. Diaspora saw to that. Because we are scat- tered all over the world, in all lands, we are ever engaged in fight- brother against brother. The Jew, at best, has found from age-long experience that, even in peace, he can survive only in a democratic world where liberty, freedom, and tolerance are the rule. We of the present generation have failed to make the world usafe for democracy. It must, therefore, be your duty and aim, in the years ahead, to remember all that you have learned here, you must carry these teachings into the new world you are about to explore. Whether or not you enter the Rabbinate in later life, you must carry from this institution of Torah, a message of faith to all men. It is your future, but you rriust never lose sight of your responsibilities. You have performed well and we are very proud of your achievement. We hope that you will re-visit your Alma Mater as often as possible. WE.

Individually we are .... in ABRAHAM ABROMOVSKY A fine sense of humor and a bubbling personality made Abe one of the more outspoken members of our class. He could be found at almost any hour of the day discuss- ing such diverse topics as the Cuban crisis, the football results or the eccentricities of his various teachers, with whoever happend to be on hand. His sharp mind enabled him to lead a double life in class-as student and com- mentator. He often amazed his Rabbis by achieving near perfect scores on his Zaks, bechina with a minimum of effort and knowledge. Abraham's forensic and histrionic abilities will insure his success in the study of law at the Hebrew University. NORMAN APPEL A resident of Long Beach. Norman found his studies at Y.U.H.S. well worth the daily long commutation. A highly capable science student, he was particularly adept at the study of biology. Athletically inclined, Norman was a starting member during his senior year of our successful interscholastic swimming team. He also served as delegate to the .lunior Council and on his class team in the intra- mural math competition. Normans' quiet and dignified man- ner earned the respect of his classmates and teachers. His ability and fine personality traits insure his success at Hobart College where he will major in the field of biology. , is X K, 1 Q 53 1 X f A in - i SHLOMO APPEL Shlomo's daily trip from Kew Gardens in the Dave- mobile gave him firsthand information about the activities of the ruling class. Extremely personable, this engaging young man is active in communal youth work. Shlomo's clarity of mind made him a favorite talmid of Rabbi Feld- blum and an excellent math student. He was a member of our interscholastic math team and was the school's rep- resentative to the Inter-Yeshiva Council. His desire to continue his study of Torah on an advanced level has led him to decide to spend a year learning at Yeshivat Kerem B'Yavneh in Israel. Upon his return to the United States, Shlomo will enter Yeshiva College where he will major in mathematics.

His knowledge of the statistics of the various sports amazed all his classmates. However, Ed does not confine his interest in athletics to its intellectual side. His is an excellent bowler and was one of the mainstays of our interscholastic team. A favored resident of Leibelville, Eddie was known to laugh without cease through entire periods with this instructor. An active participant in papier- mache baseball, he achieved one of the Hnest records in the Daled-Bais League. His success at Y.U.H.S. has led him to his decision to continue his studies at Yeshiva College. :E?2Effs:zf-:Q rt, 1 E Q , x i ' K f1g,, K MYRON BARI Myron has completed an unusually well-rounded high school career. Besides excelling in his Talmudic studies and compiling an impressive general scholastic average, he showed himself to be a math student of exceptional ability and interest. Myron's logical mind enabled him to do a highly creditable job as the captain of the Inter- scholastic Chess team and to follow Mr. Kitainik in his researches into the more profound aspects of the calculus. An excellent athlete, Myron was an asset to our tennis, bowling, and handball squads. He will prepare for a position of leadership in the Jewish community by con- tinuing his studies at Yeshiva College, where he will major in mathematics. J ,M 1 4 :.f, 1235 t ROBERT BERMAN An active participant in numerous extracurricular ac- tivities, lively and popular Bucky was chairman of intra- mural checkers, was the editor of the class newspaper during his junior year and was one of the more efficient members of the Service Squad. As a starter on the varsity basketball team, Bucky was an important factor in the late season drive to the Garden. Robert also lent his services to the bowling, track and tennis teams. Outside of school, he dabbles in real estate, revealing a keen business mind. Bob will continue his education at City College, where he will prepare for a career as a physical therapist. l i l ,.--1 llllllllll MOSHE BESSIN Moshe quietly spent four years in Yeshiva diligently pursuing his Hebrew studies. His achievements in this field are evidenced by his consistently high rank on the Hebrew honor roll and the high esteem in which he is held by the rabaim. Canada's only representative in Yeshiva, Moshe expresses his nationalistic feelings by actively sup- porting the Toronto Maple Leafs. His escapades at camp during the summer were the source of much amusing con- versation during the school year. That Moishe's interests include topics of a more serious nature is evident in his ardent belief in Zionism. He plans to attend Bar Ilan Uni- versity after spending a year in the Hachshara program of Bnei Akiva. HAROLD BRANDWEIN Harold's mild-manneredness and easy-going approach lo the rigors of school life account for his distinction as one of the more relaxed members of our class. As G.O. store salesman, he managed to soft talk prospective buyers into purchasing any item. His pleasant personality made him a very popular member of our class. Possessing un- usual aptitude in mathematics. Harold excelled in his geom- etry class and was a valuable asset to the active Ap- propriations Committee. He is also proficient in the art of relaxation, spending his leisure hours reading, swimming and riding horseback. He will continue his education at Yeshiva College, where he will prepare for a career in dentistry. FRANK BRUECKHEIMER Unfailing neatness and remarkable eiiiciency are Frank's distinguishing characteristics. Industrious both in and out of school, he was able to compile one of the highest averages in T.I. Impeccably honest, Frank did much to prevent the debasement of the ideals of the Awards Com- mittee. In his secular studies, Frank did particularly well in his math and science courses. Meier is one of the few boys in the high school to give Rabbi Suna the credit he deserves. His desire to continue his Jewish studies has led him to select Yeshiva College as the next stop on his educational journey. EPHPAIM BUCHWALD A lover of Tanach and the Hebrew language, Effy became a staunch supporter of T.I. after switching from the Talmud Department early in his high school career. Ephraim also feels strongly about the matter of students' rights and has been known to express his opinion forcibly in word and deed. He showed his interest in student affairs by serving on the student council and as chairman of the Student Affairs Committee. ln his studies, Ephraim showed marked scientific aptitude, excelling in chemistry and phy- sics. He will major in the former field at either Yeshiva College or City College. True to his Zionistic principles, he hopes to make his future home in Israel. DAVID CARMEL New ,Iersey's most lighthearted representative at MTA, Dave brought much laughter to the austere halls of Yeshiva. Possessing an unusually retentive memory, he was one of the few able to cope with Doc's mammoth history exam- inations. Athletically inclined, Dave brightened the outlook for our tennis and track teams. When not studying diligently in the Bais Medrash, he was most likely to be found at a Yeshiva basketball game, cheering our squad to victory. Having engaged in a running debate with Rabbi Dulitz throughout high school, Dave will be prepared for his studies as a pre-law major at Yeshiva College. m ix Q x sisbagg, X QE W Q . : f ' 1' ffff 'ifQ3:li'q , 1 - . :'1M'..-2'-'H-6:2 QQ-..' 13.-TT.-1'E? x ' s -fs- wswisei sa., -.,if?sQ2gQgx 5N'3e lifrissz' if 2, ' a Q . is xx as Q-- , .

Possessed of a sarcastic wit, Norman assumed an editorial role in the classroom. subjecting his teachers' opinions to close,scruti11y. A protege of Mr. Koenigsberg, Norman learned to protect himself from left-handed octopi. He participated actively in student government as a mem- ber of the student council. Displaying aptitude for the sciences, Norman plans to enter the fascinating held of biochemistry. He will prepare for this career at New York University. RONALD DAVID During his stay at Yeshiva, Ronny tor Dave, as he is more frequently calledj compiled a record studded with many unusual distinctions. He amassed an impressive folio of extracurricular activities ranging from dormitory justice to three years of unparalleled rhetoric as intramural de- bater. Dave also holds the dubious distinction of having been the most outspoken member of Mr. Reiss' classes. His enthusiastic classroom contributions were not, how- ever, fully appreciated by this austere instructor and they resulted in his temporary ostracism. Ronald's future plans include the' study of biology at Yeshiva College, his success in which is indicated by his achievements in Mr. Dragoon's bio class. ISRAEL EISS As one of the youngest freshmen ever admitted to Yeshiva, Izzy experienced a rude spiritual awakening after coming to us from the sheltered Beis Medrash of R.J.J. He managed, however, to adjust to Americanized rabbis and Saturday nights, while developing an unusually deep understanding of Judaism. Yisroel's soul-searching was aid- ed by an uncommonly keen mind, which enabled him to excel in Talmud and mathematics. His school career was highlighted by his secretarial work for Doc Shapiro and his monthly visits to Mr. Schwartz's geometry class. The alfection of his classmates resulted in his election to the presidency of the Senior Council. Izzy's philosophical spec- ulations will he continued at Yeshiva College, where he will also dabble in mathematics. DAVID EPSTEIN Coming from Queens with no previous Yeshiva back- ground, Dave acquired a knowledge of Hebrew subjects which would do credit to any Yeshiva veteran. His studies of Bible developed his innate sense of justice and integrity and led him to assume the positions of justice on the Student and Dormitory Courts. A conscientious worker, he proved to be one of Yeshiva's most capable vice-presidents, A favorite of Rabbi Dulitz and Dr. Charles, Dave,s linguistic proficiency contributed to his attainment of a very fine scholastic average. Dave plans to study for the Rabbinate at Yeshiva University. We feel that the aforementioned attributes will make him a credit to his people. Q? Y 23? I ifpliioiwli V . ....

His chairmanship of the Lost and Found Committee and membership on the'library staff and the Awards Committee made him highly deservant of the Gold Key Service Award. A skilled kegler and an agile foot- man, .loe was a valuable asset to the bowling and soccer teams. Under the slack but guiding hands of Mr. Schwartz, Farho,' developed a deep appreciation of mathematics. He is an outspoken proponent of powerful student govern- ment and of the limitation of administrative power. Joe will study at C.C.N.Y. in preparation for a career as a certified public accountant. LEON FEINERMAN Harrisburg's only representative to Yeshiva, Leon set a high standard for future applicants from that city. His congenial manner made Leon one of the best-liked members of our class. A fine athlete, his stellar performances for the swimming team made him the scourge of the league. Leon's interests, however, extend beyond the realm of sports. They include girls, geometry, ballistics fthe art of setting off iirecrackersj and biology. Leon amassed one of the largest collections of admits in the history of our school, managing, in fact, to wallpaper his entire dormitory room with these colorful little slips of paper. We wish Leon much success in his study of mathematics at the University of Pittsburgh. i 6 4 GEORGE FINKELSTEIN One of the most interesting members of our class, George possesses great talent in many areas. His interest in Judaism manifested itself in diligent study of the Talmud, several synagogue speeches, and active participa- tion in congregational activities. His oratorical ability and great popularity accounted for his election to the presi- dency of the G.O. A charter member of Arista, George earned the unanimous recommendation of the faculty and the administration by virtue of his unique combination of academic excellence, participation in extracurricular ac- tivities and dignified comportment. This gifted individual will continue his studies at Yeshiva College where he will study for the rabbinate and prepare for a career in the field of education. EMANUEL FRANKEL Emanuel is the epitome of all that is good in a Yeshiva student. His unassuming personality and great modesty have made him a favorite with teachers and students alike. llis command of the English language and creative ability made him indispensable in the production of this Elchanite, of which he is Editor-in-Chief. Having broad intellectual interests, Pinky enjoyed and excelled in courses ranging from English, through the sciences, to calculus. Possessed of the highest average in the senior class, Emanuel will graduate valedictorian. We feel that his many fine attributes will insure his success when he settles in Israel after earn- ing a doctorate in physics from Columbia University. I, ,. .cya an 5 s HOWARD FUCHS A shock of fiery red hair is not HoWie's only dis- tinguishing feature. Combining a sharp mind. a flashing wit and ready smile. he has become one of the most popular and influential members of his class. When given sufficient motivation. he displayed brilliant qualities as a student, especially in his Talmud studies. Herschele was one of the select few to gain entrance into both Rabbi Yankelewitz's 6100 and Rabbi Gordonis '4efes clubs. Possessed of keen political insight, he is one of several statesmen who dared speak out against the corruption in Yeshiva's political machine. Howie's high intelligence and sensitive personal- ity augur a bright future for him in his studies at New York University. DAVID FULD Known widely for his daring, David intimidated more faculty members and administrators than any other student. Coming to Yeshiva from Manhattan Day School, Dave immediately put into practice his own highly original ideas about education. This friendly boy also found time to cultivate rewarding relationships with several young rabbis and one young-in-spirit social studies teacher. Out of school, he engages in Zionist work and synagogue youth leader- ship. David often negotiates the slippery line between his religious and social interests on the rink at Iceland. Am- bitious and imaginative. he will continue his studies at either City College or Yeshiva College, majoring in busi- ness administration. i JACOB GLANZMAN A reticent individual. ,lacob nevertheless made a dis- tinct impression on his classmates. His conscientiousness as a student enabled him to enjoy a very successful high school career. In particular, he showed exceptional aptitude for mathematics. excelling in geometry and trigonometry. Mr. Lyons was so appreciative of ,lake's results on the trig regents that he treated him to an ice cream soda. A member of Doc Shapiro's Library Squad, he was always the first to sample the new additions to the library. His success in mathematics and related subjects insures a bright future for him in his study of engineering at City College. MYRON GOLDBERG One of the more uninhibited of Forest Hills' residents 7 Myron is well-known throughout the school for his hilarious antics. In fact, the only teacher who managed to subdue him was Mr. Landau. This in itself earned Myron's deep respect and influenced. in part, his choice of career. Myron's photographic talents were utilized as Photography Editor of the Elclzmzite. Those present at the Talent Assembly will agree that he has achieved a degree of near-virtuosity on the electric guitar. As Myron will readily conhrm, his major interest has long been that of 'icherchez la femmef' His personality and talents insure his success at City College where he will major in physics. SANFORD GOLDFLESS Sandy holds the respect and affection of all l1is ac- quaintances. This fact is evidenced by his election to the vice-presidency of Arista. He combines exceptional in- telligence with a wonderfully warm and friendly personal- ity. One of the finest scholars in' the Yeshiva. Shmuel possesses the highest Talmud average in his class while ranking among the top three on the secular Honor Roll. His literary talents were put to use in his capacity of Literary Editor of the Elclianile and as Managing Editor of the Academy News. As captain of the inter-scholastic Bowling Team he was the first in this position to actually schedule and hold meets. Sandy will enter 'Yeshiva Uni- versity as a pre-med student. ,f-H 1 AAA fm' 4 1 pi-,Eff tg fl., ' A .pw ly-,QQj:fj 'i 9 V Qwwyv ,fn f , V V, tiff..

Equally adept at handling situations oil the court as on, handsome Eric leads an active social life outside of school. His friendship with one of our young rabbis spared him some of the diliiculties of making the transition from elementary to high school. Eric's background of lvrit-B'lvrit did not prevent him from deriving much benefit from Rabbi Yankelewitz's Yiddish shiurim. One of Mr. Schwartz's favorite boneheads, Eric has completed a well-rounded secular program, particular- ly enjoying Mr. Bernstein's course in American literature. Ericis attractive personality assures his success in his study of the liberal arts at City College. MICHAEL GOLDSMITH Michael is one of the most unusual members of his class. Gifted with an outstanding, analytical mind, he dis- mayed several less perceptive acquaintances, including members of the faculty, by his cynical appraisals of life's cherished traditions and conformities. An industrious stu- dent, Menachem is the class masmid. His devotion to the Torah. however, in no way mitiffates his scathin-' tirade C D against the American rabbinate. Excelling in all his secular studies, he possesses a rare aptitude for the sciences, a factor which qualified him for participation in the National Science Foundation Summer Institute. Upon successful com- pletion of a biochemistry course at Yeshiva College, Mi- chael will fulfill his nationalistic longing by uniting the divided Berlin. JULIUS GOLDSTEIN Overcoming the difficulties of his transition from Lu- bavitcher Yeshiva by sheer will-power, ,lulie's present wide area of interest reveals the extent of his adjustment to the rigorous Yeshiva curriculum. An all-American boy, Julie participates actively in scouting and youth leadership. He also expresses himself through creative writing and inlet'- pretation of music on the guitar. Julie is oI1e of l.he few boys in our school who can boast a four year suspension- free record. As a student, his strong point was biology. Julius will further his interest in this subject by studying psychiatry at McGill University. MURRAY COLDSTEIN A well-coordinated, natural athlete, Murray excels in practically every sport. This proiiciency, combined with n true sense of sportsmanship, made him an invaluable meni- ber of four of our inter-scholastic athletic teams. His in- fallible jump shot from any angle and his ability to execute beautiful assists contributed greatly to our basketball team's success. Murray also volunteered his services to several of our schoolis publications. No matter how bleak the prospect was for Yeshiva's basketball team, Murray was always able to imbue his Academy News column with encouraging optimism and predictions of a bright future. Upon graduation, he will attend Hunter College, where he will major in psychology. 73 L 2 ALLEN GRIBETZ ln an age of specialization, Allen is that rare phe- nomenon--a liberal. well-rounded individual. His qualities as a student earned for him one of the highest academic rankings in his class. Despite his exceptional capacity for learning. Al has shown himself to possess a nature which is the antithesis of the Ivory Tower lntellectual's. His interest in politics inspired him to gain election to the office of Secretary of the G.O. during his Sophomore year. His unique combination of talents in the scholastic and execu- tive fields made Allen an excellent choice for Editor-in- Chief of the Elchanite. Inspired by Dr. Frankel, he has decided to enter the field of scientific research after study at Columbia. -n -:X .,,..,,..g MELVIN HALLER Ahandoning the smoky East Side for the verdant green of Laurel Hill Terrace in his Junior year. Mel immediately took our school by storm. Possessing outstanding athletic abilities, his favor was curried by all the interscholastic teams. He served as co-captain of this year's varsity basket- ball team and as starter on the track and handball teams. His excellence in all sports made Mel the logical choice for the sports editorship of the Elchanite and Compact. In no way. however. do his athletic distinctions overshadow his intellectual achievements. A well-rounded student, Mel- vin excelled in his study of the sciences. He will enter Yeshiva College next year as a pre-med major. RONALD HERRMANN Ronald is an example of the modern Yeshiva Univer- sity student. Well-dressed and debonair. he leads an active social life which complements a successful, well-rounded high school career. Ronnie served as Editor-in-Chief of the Bulletin, Yeshivais local-news publication. and on several class councils. Beyond the bronze doors, Ronald participates in an active synagogue youth group and has amassed an extensive stamp collection. Possessing scientific leanings, Ronnie's favorite high school course was biology. His con- tact with Yeshiva's talented biology stall and extensive laboratory facilities have prompted him to select this sub- ject as his major at City College. MATTHEW KALMAN Matthew's outlook aided him in balancing effectively the intellectual and physical sides of school life. Posessed of a sound mind in a sound body. he maintained his rank of summa cum laude while, as captain of the swimming team, l1e led the boys to a fine showing in the inter- Yeshiva Conference. He also displayed considerable talent in the arts. He is both an avid pianist and a talented artist, having put his artistic ability on display as Art Editor of both the Elclzanite and the Compact. After breez- ing through a difficult high school program, Matty will next direct his talents towards a pre-med study at the college of his choice. I GIL-AMI KATZ Gil is one of the most easy-going members of our class, as demonstrated by his somewhat-less-than-ardent ap- proach to a fourth year social studies class. Maintenance of a fine scholastic record did not preclude his participa- tion in such worthwhile activities as membership on the Junior Council and the Library Staff. Gil found biology to be the most rewarding of his high school courses, becoming particularly fascinated by the psychological aspects of the life science. Gilis plans for the future include the further- ing of his education at either Queens or Yeshiva College in preparation for a career of college-level teaching in psychology. LOUIS KATZ Mr. Goldstein's prize positive thinker, Lou's extreme good naturedness made him one of the most popular members of the senior class. He performed as a member of several ol our varsity teams, including the improved swimming leillll. As one of Doc's last students Lou took great interest in his study of the French Revolution. adopting '4Le Fra- ternite as his personal slogan. This good-looking young man also endeavored to insure the maintenance of good rela- tions between MTA and its sister schools. Having learned the rudiments of biology at YUHS, Louis plans to continue his studies next fall as a pre-med student at Yeshiva. GERALD KATZOFF Jerry is a boy to whom outside activities are as im- portant as schoolwork. His interests vary from table tennis, a sport at which he is a champion, to music, a field in which his tastes range from Beethoven to the Oranim Zabar. Jerry was a member of the Student Council and served on the important Reductions and Awards Commit- tees. Not one to neglect his schoolwork, he also maintained a fine scholastic average. .lerry is possessed of a very determined nature which demands an exact and thorough knowledge of every piece of Gemorrah that he learns. This tenacity in his studies will he of great value to him as a math major at Queens College. STANLEY KLEIN One of the more enthusiastic Talmud students to be graduated from the Manhattan Day School. Stanley showed a profound understanding of that subject. In addition, l1is mature approach to his studies enabled him to gain an unusually broad base of knowledge. His frequenting of the Cottesman Library and his wide reading experience also contributed to his considerable erudition. Stanley was one of the few to appreciate Rabbi Dulitz's efforts to teach senior English. His memorization of the three million least important historical facts under Doc's Trivial Teaching Plani' should enable Stan to breeze through the courses in history, his chosen major, at Yeshiva College. ROBERT KLINGS-HOFFER Bob's activities as a member of a militant Zionist organization prepared him for his role as one of the most fiery vice-presidents in Yeshiva's political history. A poet of authentic talent, Bob frequently amazed Mr. Shapiro with his Homeric epics and, as editor-in-chief, produced one issue of the Junior Journal entirely in verse. Among Bob's distinctions are his excellent performance on the National Merit Scholarship Exam and his success in the difficult Mechina Program. Having run the gauntlet of Shapiros QA. and Docj and Rabbi Dulitz, Bob is certainly well-prepared to cope with the instructors at Yeshiva College, where he will major in French. DANIEL KURZ Danny is an example of the ideal Yeshiva student. He possesses diverse cultural interests but has not let them obscure the position of Torah study and orthodoxy in his life. Danny's activities include several terms of member- ship on the student council and the holding of an executive position on the senior council. A talented natural athlete, he served as captain of the interscholastic tennis team. Notable among his outside interests is classical music. Inspired by Mr. Leibel. Danny has also embarked upon an extensive reading program, with emphasis on the human- ities. Devotion to his fellow man has led this extremely personable young man to select psychology as his major at Yeshiva College. llltlu . -1. 2-ii , f i r 5 sm ff . . f.,, fl .i ' I V . -Sri' ' , ia . 4 . 2 - I ,, ' QHELDON KURZ A part-time resident of West New York. New Jersey, Shelly maintained a highly creditable academic record while pursuing various extracurricular activities. Among the lat- ter, his chief love was dramatics. lt was his proficiency in this art, in fact. that led him to revitalize the school's Drarnatics Society. As a student. Shelly's favorite subject was American literatureg his studies in Mr. Bernsteiifs class having aided in his development of sophisticated and mature tastes in reading matter. One of the staunchest supporters of the Elclzanite. Shelly aided greatly in the production of the yearbook. Aiming for a career in adver- tising. Shelly will pursue his studies at Rutgers University in his home state. RALPH LABENDZ Ralph's brilliant talmudic mind amazed all his in- structors in that area. However, the same qualities that earned him renown in the third floor teachers, room en- deared him to his fellow students. His ready wit and good natured drolleries enlivened many a dull evening in the dormitory. Ralph's predilection for sleeping late in the morning caused certain counsellors to go into paroxysms of rage. Despite his consuming interest in relaxation, Ralph did very well scholastically, excelling in mathematics. As Sports Editor of the Elchanite, Ralph managed to imbue that section with the wit and sarcasm characteristic of the Labendzian personality. To the most overworked senior we foresee splendid success in the study of medicine at Rutgers University. fcfqfyrf..

The musician is given the task of expressing profound thought and swiftly- changing mood solely through the interaction of musical tones. Yet, the task seems less formid- able when one realizes the smallness of the gap that separates this art from life, the foun- tainhead of all artistic creation. Life's composer has created a work of sublime beauty through the interaction of variables. Dissonance, as well as harmony, is elemental in nature, as in music, and charges each with emotion. Our stay at Yeshiva was a symphony in four movements. The allegro first year, the smoothly flowing, andante second year, the tense, scher- zando third year, and the breathless, presto final year-movement are each and all unfor- gettable. As the sounds fade, we, the players, begin to wonder about the true interpretation of the symphony We have completed. Nostalgically, We perform a final encore .... , ' v , ii- - ff 139' L X .. . fs. 4 , 42, ' '11 1' N Q. Hifi 1rf.vWe'r ' up ff My x 0 Ai' ' ,iv .tg F ,,,'ii N hal Q 1.1!

Wholesale elevator passes, predatory seniors and Doc's library system add to our confusion. We make our first Contact with the American Rabbii' in the persons of our rabaim. Rabbi Parnes amazes his students by using epsilons and deltas to determine pshat in the Gemorah. T. I. students, incited to rebellion by their liberal young rabbi. don postage stamps in favor of the traditional yarmulka. Rabbi Urivetsky's Hebrew course introduces us to the secular program at Yeshiva. A special class is proposed for boys with limited Hebrew training. We convince Rabbi Urivetsky that he is perfectly suited to teach the course. We become fearful when the Rabbi offers us his services as an analyst and are completely disillusioned when he tries to explain Samuel's vision on the basis of the psychoanalytic theory of dreams. The Sobels and Messrs. Nulman and Grossman attempt to develop our appreciation of beauty. Our aesthetic sense is dealt a crushing blow, how- ever, when Mrs. Sobel hangs pictures of scantily attired basketball players on the walls and Cantor Nulman has us listen to his own recordings. We study classical mythology under Mr. Cohen. This gifted instructor is able to demonstrate how the younger Olympians rose quickly through the ranks of the minor gods and then usurped the power of ,love himself. Mr. Schain proves to the hecklers and noodnicksu that he is truly a great scientist when he is awarded the Nobel Prize for confirming Newton's Law of Inertia. He demon- strates that with no effort exerted, a course will remain static for as long as thirty-five years. Mr. Wollman is one of the really nice,' faculty members. He never gives us a test without first invoking the blessing of James Reston and securing permission from Har- rison, Gribetz. and Mystery-Wordw Finkelstein. Late in the year. Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion speaks to a packed auditorium about youth aliyah and yishuv haaretz. A bearded intruder, rumored to be a protege of Rabbi Parnes, is ejected from the audito- rium. Long nights of chazoroh prepare us for the finals and Rabbi Zaks. Our formative year is over and we leave Yeshiva for a much-needed vacation. A brief, refreshing pause and we are sophomores. Our slightly thinned ranks are bolstered when Wolf and Schwartz lead the Queens group to Yeshiva. Mr. Alfred Shapiro, a highly talented English teacher. joins the faculty. He is able to portray perfectly the character of Shylock in the Merchant of Venice, altering the plot slightly to insure his collection of a pound of flesh in the form of a short story test. Tests become easier when we threaten to overturn Mr. Shapirofs Citroen. Mr. Goldstein, one of the best. teaches us the art of positive thinking. Mr. Goldstein is last seen being carried downtown on the back of a pigeon. We begin our study of foreign languages. Dr. Charles and Mr. Fried teach French while Mr. Schoffel, a new addition to the faculty, teaches Hrst-year Spanish. 1 fff ,-7 ' 1 fl ' , if.r fd if !,ff' 9 X ' N if X ------..-------.. 8' - rr 'KT ia AQ ' A als' I -F is r -: lf ii M - -- - - U Hawkeyes progressive methods include an adjustment of the seating arrangement during tests to afford maximum cheating ease. Dr. Frankel and Mr. Dragoon teach difficult but rewarding courses in the life science. Mr. Dragoon enlivens his class with appropriate quotations from the Bard while Dr. Frankel hammers home his points on Yeshiva's sturdy blackboards. We are taught the fundamentals of Euclidean geometry by Messrs. Braver- man, Schwartz and Stepelman. Mr. Schwartz begins his Regents review in October. His exposition of L'Bonel'1ead's Theorem is far above the heads of most of the class. Early one morning, Mr. Braverman is informed by an anonymous caller that perpendiculars form right angles and that all right angles are equal. His reaction proves the proposition that some faculty members are squares. After abandoning the sanctity of R.,l.,l.'s Beth Me- drash, Rabbi Scheinberg joins Y.U.'s Talmud Faculty. Finding Yeshiva's brand of sophisticates no match for his ardor. he frightens us into really learning. When we tell him that we are studying evolution. he emphatically denies the validity of the scientific method. In one enlightening session. he disposes of heredity, evolution and the Copernican theory, asserting that these heretical beliefs arise from misinterpretation of medrashim. Smiling cheerfully, Rabbi Grossman agrees with one of his talmidim who calls him CENSORED CENSORED It is an exciting year. It is the year of Yuri Gagarin, of the making of President Kennedy and of our first Regents Examinations. Through long study, most of us manage to pass the halfway mark with flying colors. The first shock of our Junior year is the announcement that Mr. Shapiro will retain his English class. The sudden rush on the office is curtailed when it becomes apparent that he has decided to pass some boys this year. The second surprise is Mike Shevlin's overwhelming victory in the Battle of the Bulge. Rabbis Feldblum and Yankel- ewitz introduce the boys in the Talmud Dept. to the complexities of Hamafkid. In the Hebrew Dept., Rabbi Suna's clear, logically presented shiurim do much to dispel the confusion. The Book of Proverbs gives Rabbi Cordon an opportunity to attribute a Freudian mentality to Solomon and expose us to some of the spicier commentaries. We take the PSAT, the first of our struggles with the diabolical CEEB. Mr. Lyons' resem- blance to Leibel the Younger enables him to enter the school in a blaze of glory. His suc- cess is assured when Popper and Lacher turn up in his class. A great marksman, Mr. Lyons is able to dispatch Fuld with one rubberband. Messrs. Finkelstein and Werblow introduce us to the fascinating study of molecular action. Exotic odors and violent explosions make our lab sessions exciting. Mr. Werblow apologizes to his class for his poor handwriting but assures them that his precise articulation will make up for it. Rackovsky wanders into a high school chemistry class and mistakes Mr. Finkelstein for a study hall teacher. Mr. Bernstein introduces new concepts in remote control teaching, spending entire periods in the back of the classroom, leaving Max and Minnie to maintain order. Mr. Bernstein's marking system is criticized when it becomes known that James Fenimore Cooper got only a 75 in English. We find World History a very stimulating course. Mr. Koenigsberg teaches us, among other things, how long to boil an ostrich egg and cautions us to beware of knife-wielding Fascists. In an unprecedented move, the Passover Pro- visions Committee expands its activities to include trips during class time. Soon after this incident, Dr. Saphire delivers a classic oration on the subject of retribution, afiirming that those sinners who live by the sword shall perish by the swordf, It is in this address that Dr. Saphire presents his enlightened Ten-Point Programfl We take the Merit and the first College Boards, achieving excellent results in both. Political activity includes the busting of a projected Elchanite machine and the dramatic end-of-the-year election of dynamic Kenny Zitter to the presidency of the G.O. We begin our final year at Yeshiva optimistically, with the exciting prospect of graduation before us. Doubts assail us, however, as we fail test after test in the classes of Messrs. Kitainik and Landau. The calculus students learn to define an imaginary circle in terms of a sub-zero kitainik,', a new term for a mathematical nonentity. Rabbi Suna stimulates our interest in biblical exegesis and suggests an answer to the basic problem of Jewish thought- What makes Jonah run? Rabbi Fulda disappears in a cloud of smoke and, operating on the theory that all Hebrew teachers are psychologists, reappears as a career counselor. Rabbi Feldblum is absent for the first time in his career. Rumor has it that he is suffering from nightmares in which former talmidim fiing black balls at him. The AA raids Rabbi Bernstein's class and confiscates his thermos bottle. Rabbi Tendler decides that mice are more important to him than his talmidim and departs to devote his full time to them. Similarly, Rabbi Dulitz gives up his position at Central to devote his full time to his calah. Feverish work on college applications consumes much of our time during the first half of the year. For his first assembly President Zitter invites Dr. Chu to speak in his native tongue on the fundamental aspects of neutrino astronomy. He also establishes a Student Affairs Committee which effectively voices the problems of the students to the administration. In a sudden move, Sidney Stern leads a coup d'etat which results in the thorough reorganization of the oliice plan. Mr. Reiss' history class is en- livened by dramatic presentations and community sings. During the Cuban crisis, Mr. Cobert announces that he has given up all hope for the world. Unlike his colleague, Mr. Heitner steadfastly refuses to be snowed under. Our College Bowl team loses to Man- hattan Central twice as Captain Frankel forgets to blow his whistle four times before correctly answering the questions. At mid-season our varsity smashes to its first victory 7 f if-ifslsfa .2 ,if of W 1 f i 'lin grills! ,W ,N 'I ff , M n fl ifllillil it ' f ff if '96 f 45i4!! ffl t X7 In . if dis- 'P ' LM! -HW by defeating Ramaz. Mr. Stanley Cohen moves the audience with a stirring farewell address delivered at the Arista Assembly. Finkelstein wins the mid-year presidential election, acknowledging his debt to Sarah Jockrnan. As the new term begins, Mr. Emanuel Leibel departs on a trip around the world, leaving behind his precious raindrop collection. Mr. Sobel orders Wachstock to draw and Jacob, following orders, disposes of him. Yeshiva maintains its record of excellence on the Regents Scholarship Examination, as the results show that the seniors have won the largest number of scholarships ever. With the late spring, our thoughts turn to . . . the reality of lvy League admissions policies. We begin to count the days as May leads into June and graduation day. We realize that we have shed our roughness and acquired a measure of sophistication during our stay at Yeshiva. We have formed lifelong friendships among ourselves and have assimilated the values of dedicated teachers. Our imaginations have been fired by exposure to beauty and logic. We have been stimulated, entertained, praised, rebuked, rewarded and punished and we have grown in the process. We know that the years spent here have been among the most meaningful of our lives. .:S i?Eifi-312 . fiif:EE:m':??iF Ifi..imgttaf-:gmn.:::E55::af........:..ass:es5g :EEEEEEEEETZZ?5f555f!555iiiii!:EE555.11355225559155 -x , a 9 Xxxxlf af:-f: --:-'-Ef.z.f- 1- 5: ---as..fs:i- -ass.: X :Elf-Iss125252.-.utiif1-7-1-g:g31:s:,F-:ms ' l:iI'!1f1ili:f'::1:E a5::e::-qagiim:-eff ,.a,:':: 's15g:E:: ..:,..,,g:::: ::rgf!:::: 'QESEEQEFQEEZ-Giiiiiiisrz -1--es-ails?-:EUIEEEQH-3 ''-51-559455 - no :m-,5.,---5E,,-- ' 55 -g:,,..::T i ' 'f :- :a.-.?E:.-1..5:'ET -::l!'E.IL isi:::1gi55EiES-1 f --1s:::::'!e?!l:-1:::::::::-sues:'...:.,.a::! 4:'i':ss:f.:ggEEjE:s2::r::::sq2:a:g,a:5gg , .. ..,. ....-- .... ---.. ..,,,-- 11 :. i' 'T' --:::::Q5 Zgggrggz,-':':a: l fe 'vgaarf-...7l EgaE5E:TS',,211525522-1:,m 25. f gi iflriiteaasatugfavszszgs zN:ffara1a2:e EEE::t.:::gg:1:isa::5g ' E ..i::-:igi- 1 .

What will remain sharply etched in the composite image of our high school years are those activities which meant for us the first firm touch of life. In expressing ourselves crea- tively for the first time in an Elclzy, realizing our leadership potential as executives of the G.O., and learning the meaning of teamwork on the athletic teams, We gave freely of ourselves, trying to dis- cover our own abilities and shortcomings in rela- tion to those of others. In the friendly atmosphere of the high school, We assimilated values which made us better equipped to assume our proper roles when we enter society. 1 A ga .

With that thought in mind, we devoted much of our senior year to the production of the Elchanite and we sincerely hope that you find our effort reflected in the finished product. The organization of the yearbook, our first genuinely creative work, was an unforgetable experi- ence. The exchanging of ideas with Matty, Shelly and Co. was highly enjoyable and richly rewarding. Memories associated with the Elchy, of the hilarious Faculty-Varsity benefit game, of watching the sunrise after an all-night pre-deadline sessionanniof battles with the faculty advisor over his censorship rights will remain with us forever. The helpful suggestions of Messrs. Bernstein and Getter, yearbook advisors, are highly appreciated. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our class- mates for giving us the opportunity to serve them as yearbook editors and for their financial support of the Elchanite.

OFFICIAL MINUTES OF THE YESHIVA UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT COUNCIL The first meeting of the Very General Organization of Yeshiva University High School was not called to order. The second meeting was called to order at 3:57 P.M. on or around T December 16, 1962 in room 210. The attendance was as follows: seniors: present 4 absent 14 juniors: present 6 absent 6 sophomores: present 9 absent 3 freshmen: present 14 absent 0 In the absence of the secretary, Mr. Cohen was asked to read the minutes of the previous meeting. A freshman representative who insisted on a point of order that there had in fact been no previous meeting was immediately removed from the room. In the absence of the treasurer Mr. Cohen read the treasurer's report, as follows: Balance as of last meeting-between .5300 and 51200 Debt-528,000 Amount expected from G.O. store sales-81.42 Mr. Cohen expressed the fervent hope that the sale of G.O. cards at 55.00 apiece would raise the 85.00 needed to apply for foreign aid for an educational grantl. The reading of the financial report was then permanently discontinued, as of that meeting, by a unanimous vote. First on the agenda was a request by the swimming team for a 5300 appropriation for an inflatable swimming pool and air pump. It was pointed out that since the G.O. debt was so high an additional expense could make no possible difference. Conse- quently the motion was passed unanimously. A student of Rabbi Parnes was censured for proposing an amendment to the bill for- bidding taaroves swimming in the pool. The captain of the T.I. Hockey Team requested 8.10 to finance a meet with the California Institute of Technology. As a con- cession to Mr. Cohen's incessant pleas for more economy, the appropriation was defeated by a narrow margin. A motion was passed to purchase a Shakespeare Veriorum and a hot water bottle for Mr. E. Leibel for use during his conva- lescence from a case of pneumonia. A proposed amendent to the G.O. Constitution allowing the Council to overrule the Faculty Advisor was defeated by Mr. Cohen. As it was discovered that a quorum was not present at the meeting, the session was adjourned at 4:01 and the proceedings were stricken from the records.

Boasting a record number of members, our chapteris functioning was often hampered by confusion. The membership did, however, get around to ratify- ing the constitution of the honorable national organization, and subscribing to bi-monthly meetings. Another achievement of our Arista was the formation of a large Teacher Substitution Squad. Dues were collected for the purpose of financing a trip to a place of cultural interest. This policy was discontinued, how- ever, when the members were found during the spring at a Met-Phillies Doubleheader. Seven Arista members brought honor to the school by qual- ifying for the coveted scholarship of the National Honor So- ciety. They were selected on the basis of their performance on the PSAT, a nationally administered examination. Selected by Arista on the basis of familiarity with Talmud, the pious judges of the Student Court presided over several important cases. The most important of these involved a rooster which had hurled several oxen into a pit of nine hand-breadths. After lengthy correspondence with Babylonian authorities, Chief Justice Epstein decreed that the rooster be storied by the entire student body at an assembly. he radvmy, it cms Official Student Publication of Yeshiva University High School Front Row: Editors-in-chief I.

Under the guiding hand of Mr. Bernstein and capable editorship of Charles Popper and Irwin Segal, the newspaper directed its attention to the more important aspects of school life. The editorials suggested changes in the scholastic curriculum as well as pointing out the weaknesses and faults of the present extracurricular program. Talented Phil Tannenbaum made the tradi- tional Under the Domev column an irritating voice of protest, hinting subtly at the need for basic reforms. Sanford Goldliess contributed several provocative articles, while, no matter how bleak were the prospects for our struggling basket- ball team, sports editors Goldstein and Shatzkes always managed to rationalize past debacles and imbue their column with optimistic cheer. Academy News innovations included a Teacher's Column, in which several prominent faculty members were given the opportunity to express their opinions of the school, the student body, religious matters, and other items of interest. At the beginning of each term, the G.O. president was invited to sound out stu- dent opinion of his plans for his term of oiiice by discussing his policies in the President's Report. Though an attempt by the Academy News editors to corner the journalistic market in New York during the newspaper strike was foiled by administrative action, the organ remains Yeshiva's most iniiuential periodical. AVN' ooo C 9-vase go 169 COMPACT Seated: Editors-in-chief one issue, R. Nussbaum, K. Zitter, M. Goldsmith, N. Stiskin. First Semi- circle: D. Epstein, N. Groob, M. Goldstein, J. Goldstein, J.

Herrmann, L. Narotsky, R. Pick. Yeshiva is plagued with a plethora of lagging pub- lications, a fact which was all too clear this year. The Compact, after a six-month delay, finally printed a magazine worthy of the title of the literary publica- tion of Y.U.H.S. Editor Nahum Stiskin's stirring plea for internationalism and Matthew Kalman's warm eulogy for Robert Frost were the highlights of this issue. In its second year of existence, the Bulletin, a supplement of the Academy News designed for the publication of recent news, was unfortunately unable to accomplish this purpose. Mr. Cohen's leave of ab- sence made headlines two months after his departure for Canada and the third-year French class editorial appeared, after repeated censorship, long after the class had been cancelled. The Hatchiya's greatest problem lay in Yeshiva's dearth of Hebrew Writers. Three pages of Israeli songs, a humorous article by David Epstein entitled Never Learn Talmud on the IRT and several stories by editors Pick and Wallen- stein comprised the only issue of the oHicial Hebrew publication. The enlargement of the Compact, more frequent issuance of the Bulletin and the resurrec- tion of the Hatchiya would be in order. S 1-nn-1 Seated: Editors-in-Chief S. Wallenstein and R.

Its narrow halls reverberate with blasphemous shouts of lower the radio and heated discussions of Einstein's theory of relativity. At all hours of the night, rapt dorm boys could be found discussing the president's tax pro- posals or analyzing Hersey's latest book. Friendly games of chess and the nightly squabbling over which roommate was to do the homework all contributed to the atmosphere of the dorm. The sudden early-morn- ing illnesses, the knowing smiles over cure-all cups of tea, and Mrs. Weitzendorfs maternal care for her udarlingsi' have instilled in us wonderful memories of our home away from home.

The Passover Provisions Committee is the most important of T.A.'s family of extracurricular activities. Under the leadership of a troika fDr. Sapphire, Mr. Abrams, and Rabbi Bernsteinj, the members of the committee attempt to distribute the necessities of the holiday to the needy, take entertaining field trips and study foreign relations. Extreme- ly idealistic, the committee spoke out on many important points fthree, to be exactj. The motto of the group is those who live by the sword shall perish by the sword, those who defy the authority of its leaders are tortured. 86 STUDENT AFFAIRS Kneeling: Chairman K.

Captain Steve Metal fre- ferred to as The Enforcer J, stickey-fingered Abe Abromov- sky, con man Howard Fuchs, Harris The Friskeri' Twersky and Smokey Jerry Seidenfeld are specialists in their chosen field of law enforcement. Impeccably honest, paragons of good conduct, they succeeded in instilling in the student body an unprecedented respect for the Service Squad. LIBRARY For the first time in Yeshiva his- tory, the high school library operated eiliciently, expanding its facilities to accommodate the enlarged student body.

MATH This year, the new training methods of Coach Stepel- man, emphasizing Weightlifting and frequent scrim- mages, contributed to the team's phenomenal success. Led by Pi Popper and Calc', Kalman, the team rolled up an impressive record of three wins, no losses and two ties in league competition. Another factor contributing to the success of the team was the retain- ing of Kit Kitainik as blackboard eraser. DEBATIN G In preparation for its opening debate, this garrulous group of orators could often be found engaging in the art of teacher-baiting. Achieving an excellent 3-1 record in league competition with decisive victories over Flatbush, Hili and Ramaz, the team owed its success chiefly to the efforts of Captain ,lack Stern and standouts Ken Zitter and Nahum Stiskin.

CHESS The Chess Team's O-3 record does not give an accurate indication of the ability of the teamis members. Every game lost by these skilled pawnpushers could have resulted in a Yeshiva vic- tory had their minds not been pre- occupied with their talmudic studies. There were some bright spots in this generally bleak picture. Junior Phil Kleiner enjoyed a perfect season while Captain Myron Bari suffered only one loss.

CHEERING SQUAD In an effort to holster lagging team- support, the seven well-rounded young men pictured rolled up their pants-legs, donned revealing costumes, and pre- sented elaborate routines to the wildly cheering throngs at Yeshiva games. Their falsetto cries of encouragement, in fact, were responsible for our team's appearance in Madison Square Garden. 96 I w,., t.,..s--.,,1..,..,. .,.,. ,-,.i ,- . ,.,,.l,,.r,,. t if CHECKERS Although captained by Grand Mas- ter Barry Schimrnel, the checkers team was unable to gain any league vic- tories, ending the season with an 0-3 record.

Jorro Born of one of Rabbi Tendler's mis- fired experiments, the .lotto League spread cancerously throughout the school and succeeded in terrorizing the rabbi's young laboratory assistant. So uncontrollable has been the tumor-like growth of this menace that not even a student-delousingn program ordered by the administration during the second term was able to check its spread. If worse comes to worst, said an adminis- trative spokesman, Rabbi Tendler may have to he recalled from his under- cover work in the Virgin Islands. Front Row: N. Appel, A. Gribetz, Captain M.

Better attendance by team members and more frequent practices would have insured Yeshivais talented natators of a first- place finish in the Inter-Yeshiva League. Despite these handicaps, the Mini-Mites managed to place no worse than fourth in any event and ended the season in second place behind a strong BTA squad. Captain Matthew Kalman and free-stylists Appel, Zitter, Feinerman, Gribetz and Wagowsky shared the five starting berths in the individual, relay, and medley events. Silver swam the diiicult four-lap race while Messrs. J. Kalman, Altman and Popper swam in the backstroke and breaststroke competitions. George Link- er and Louis Katz provided capable management in the arrangement of meets and practices. Many thanks are due to Mr. Mel Cohen, who completed a successful third year as swimming coach. - -ff-Hs.. . : - .' . lf' a , ...,. . , '- A -4-:-31f1.Q.g,- .

TENNIS Pre-season snows prevented the ten- nis team from scheduling any meets till early spring, after the Elchanite deadline. At several preliminary prac- tices, however, the squad showed that it would provide formidable opposition for any other team in the league. Co- Captains Kurz and Sternberg and net- men Carmel and Mann share the two doubles matches. Possessing lightning serves and devastating returns, Gribetz, Hartman and Kalman complete the line-up of the starting team. 99 L L. 1 1-- - --1-+..,.' .J 'M H -Q 1 tttt i..,,TiT rJ- ,Ag ,,, .

Led by high jumper M. Goldsmith, our squad completely outclassed all opposi- tion. This winning trend was set in our first meet, a dual aHair with Cen- tral, a contest which was high-lighted by the conquests of veteran broad- jumper I. Segal. Believing in quantity rather than quality, our massive handball team overawed all opposition. Its 24-7 mem- bers, captained by Jerry the palm Shatzkes, were never able to find play- ing facilities suflicient' for the entire team. Expecting an even larger influx of spring termers, the team will be forced to migrate southward, locust- like, in search of handball courts and qualified competition. ,X , .e . .. x A .

Although getting 05 to a very slow and disappointing start, the Mites ended the season on the wings of the hottest winning streak in the League. The first three games of the season presented a rather bleak picture of the varsity's prospects. The fine shooting of R. Berman and I. Bauman were the only bright spots in the 64-52 opening game loss to BTA. In its second game, against RH, the team lost, 57-44, their play lacking the Huid co- ordination that it was to display in the latter part of the season. Still trying for its Hrst victory, the team rolled into Flatbush on November 15. In the second half, led by the fine shooting of Murray Goldstein, the Mites pulled to Within two points of the high-flying Falcons. Though playing excel- lently, they were unable to stop the Falcon giants Berman and Levitt and the game ended with M.T.A. on the short end of a 62-55 count. It f f 3.

With the opportunity to break even in the league, the team met the newly formed I.E.C. quintet from Elizabeth. Though we lead in the game's initial Stages, the half ended with Elizabeth ahead by three points. In the third period, Y.U.H.S. gained the lead and held a one point lead with only one minute to play. The Elizabeth team then sank two foul shots and, with fifteen seconds remaining, called time out. When play re- sumed, I.E.C. worked the ball to their high scorer, Ray Aboif, who iced the victory for the New Ier- sey team. Mired in Hfth place in their league, our team salvaged some of its dignity by downing the col- lege freshmen 61-42. The Hili Invitational Tournament opened on December 23, with Y.U., led by Haller and Palefski, blasting Martin Luther High School off the court, 65-19. The following Saturday night, a last second, thirty-foot jump shot by Captain Gold- schmidt upended Hili and put the revived Mites into the tourney's finals against defending title- holder R.I.I. The championship game, played on December 31, remained close throughout the First half but the T.A. five eventually turned the game into a 57-40 rout copping the championship trophy for the team and the Most Valuable Player Award for Paul Palefski. The next opponent of the Wettstein-men was the BTA Yugars. Though a Hne game was turned in by junior Tommy Hoffman, Y.U.H.S.M. suf- fered its fifth loss in league competition. Eager to drop T.A. from playoff contention, the Raiders of invaded the George Washington gym for a Ianuary 28 game with their uptown rivals. Though crippled by the absence of two of their starters, the Mites, led by Mel Haller and Bucky Berman emphasized defense and emerged victorious by a score of 35-32. The next two games proved disastrous as we met defeat at the hands of Cathedral and Flat- bush. The hope of competing in the playoffs and appearing in the Garden seemed dimmed. With this realization acting as an incentive rather than a barrier, the Mites set out to make Yeshiva history. Crossing the bridge for a rematch with I.E.C., the team easily overpowered the Elizabethans, 56- 40. They next swept by the Ramaz Rams, 59-36. In the last scheduled game of the season, the team met the Hawks of Hili and, spurred by the newly formed cheering section, won 38-32. Tied for fourth place with Hili, led by Paul Palefski's seventeen points and Dave Radin's re- bounding, we nipped the wienies for the fourth time this season by a 54-48 score. Aiming for their fifth straight victory, the Ye- shiva five played the Raiders at N.Y.U.'s Alumni Gym in the Hrst playoff game. Putting on a tre- mendous offensive show, the team was spurred by Haller's eighteen and Berman's seventeen points. Final score: Yeshiva-54, Shenkos -36. On March 3, our opponent was Flatbush, with Madison Square Garden as the winner's prize. With our team trailing at the half by three, Coach Wettstein delivered an inspiring half-time talk, and our team returned to the court keyed for their Finest performance of the year. With the crowd cheering them on and trumpets . blaring, they brought the score to 46-46. Then, in the final pe- riod, Radin's clutch rebounding, Haller's perfect spot passing, and the accurate shooting of Gold- schmidt and Berman resulted in the most reward- ing victory of the year. Playing Hrst-place BTA in cavernous Madison Square Garden on March 12, the Mites made up for their horrendous 1962 Garden loss to Flatbush by coming to within three points of victory in a hotly contested game. Led by Palefski's shooting and Haller's heads-up team play, the team brought the crowd to its feet by staging a thrilling come- back only to go down to defeat 52-49. The season was brought to a close March 18 when the Mites took on a strong faculty team. Led by Rabbis Weinbach and Witkin, the faculty forced the varsity to go all-out to eke out a one- point, 47-46 victory over their teachers. Thus, the Mini-Mites, described by their coach as the most courageous group of boys he'd ever seen concluded a season replete with victory and defeat, a season characterized by genuine team spirit.

The Junior Varsity's performance this year closely' paralled that of the varsity basketball team. Although possessing abundant talent, the .l.V. seemed unable to play consistently well in league competition, losing three and winning one. In non-league corn- petition, the team showed some im- provement, defeating several powerful Schteible teams. Captain S.

The painfully harsh lights of the city stood out against the impenetrably black face of the night sky. Only a sliver of moon was visible against the close- seeming, starless ceiling. The skyline of the city lacked symmetryg tall, angular buildings clashed with squat, bulbous ones. lagged, cut- ting lines predominated. Surrounding waters bit piercingly into the jutting shoreline. Darting cabs transported the arrivals to their hotels. They were shown to their crudely and uncomfortably furnished rooms. The walls .of the small rooms were bare, except for the presence of large windows which afforded a constant view of the city below. In the morn- ing the guests faced each other for the Hrst time. They were not attracted to each other. It seemed to them that their neighbors' ap- pearances were inhumang that their bodies and faces were gross and misshapen. No friendships were formed. None of the new arrivals could bear the company of his fellows and each was content to live within himself. Neither did the new residents adjust favor- ably to their new home. To them, the sounds of the city were unbearably monotonous. They found all the colors muted and toneless. It seemed that Nature itself had abandoned the hateful city. The skies were bleached of blue and the earth bore no traces of green. Delicate winged creatures did not inhabit the city. Fierce, sulphurous storms beat continually, leaving in their wake a foul, sultry mist. The group found the city in all ways intolerable. Yet the full, true reason for their unrelieved suffering could not become known to these people. Their sensitivity had been greatly heightened. But their souls had been made re- ceptive to beauty in a beautyless world. Their eyes had been given clear vision in the dark- ness of perpetual night. Their minds were fired with the creative power to conceive of God in a God-forsaken universe. Their memories washed, they could not recall a sweet world of curved and flowing lines. They had no memory of graceful, man-made forms, of rich, blending color, of the thunderous roll of har- monious sound, of the overpowering glory of God in nature. They were conscious only of an intense longing for the divine element, its name no longer known to them, that gives humanity to life, and of a torturing thirst made unquenchable by the imperfection of their world.

TORAH AND SCIENCE From the idolatrous worshipers of the Golden Calf of Sinai to the thought- tormented skeptics of the Twentieth cen- tury, the validity of the Torah as a code of life has been challenged. In our time, man rides the crest of a wave of scientific break- throughs. The chains which once bound him to the earth have been broken. The resolution of matter into its ultimate components and the isolation and laboratory synthesis of the genetic basis of life seem near at hand. News of these concept-shattering developments has caused a revolution in Iewish thought in a generation vitally concerned with the dynamism and eternal applicability of the Torah. The problem of science and religionn is of a dual nature. Rational man cannot become intellectually subject to an authority which affirms as true that which his mind tells him is false, nor can his logic, once having estab- lished the actual existence of some object or idea, be blinded to its truth. The Torah must, therefore, in no way conflict with or dispute the existence of observed natural phenomena. The second aspect of the problem, less vital in that it is of concern only to the more sensitive individual, is the positive relationship between Torah and science. Representatives of the scientific world are responsible for many of the doubts that have arisen concerning the accuracy of the Biblical account of the Creation and of the subsequent development of life and civilization on earth. Their claim is that evidence as to the age of the earth gathered from geological and pale- ontological sources contrast markedly with the Iewish belief in a six-day creation and in a historical period of only some five thous- and years. They also point out that the descrip- tion in Genesis of what seem to be separate creations of the different phyla does not con- form with the accepted Theory of Evolution. Before considering the attacks of the scien- tists, the basic elements of scientific method should be made clear. Scientihc laws can be formulated and truths gain acceptance solely on the basis of repeated observation of natur- ally occuring or laboratory-simulated phe- nomena. By its very nature, therefore, science can at best offer inconclusive speculations about the unobserved events of the remote past, when the exact and clearly defined conditions of today may not have been operative. In addi- tion, it is important to understand that the definition of truth within the realm of science differs from that of the Torah. Whereas science relies exclusively on observation, Iudaism ac- cepts as truth those ideas which originated in man's mind by revelation and were promul- gated by oral transmission from generation to generation. In the beginning God created the Heaven and Earth. fGenesis I, lj These simple words begin the sublime and majestic story of Crea- tion. The reference, as explicity stated in the commentaries, is to the reduction into ordered form of chaotic matter and energy. The actual calling into being of matter, the creazio ex ni- fzilo, of which God is tacitly assumed to be the Cause, is not mentioned in the Bible, and may have taken place countless ages beforehand. Thus, recent findings as to the age of the universe do not preclude the acceptance of the Biblical narrative, for the Torah does not dis- cuss at all the actual origin in time of matter and all estimates of the age of matter involve the unverinable assumption that existing pro- cesses of disintegration and radioactive decay were in effect eons past. In relating the events of the six-cycle period of Creation, the Bible verifies the Darwinian Theory of development. Matter on Earth pro- gressed from the inanimate to the lower classes of organisms, then to the higher plants and animals and finally to man, the ultimate pur- pose for the attainment of which the creative process was initiated, Last in Creation -first in conception? Each progression is seen not as the product of purely natural forces, but as the fulfillment of a step in a divinely conceived plan. As man learns the secret of the genetic code and observes the miracle of differentiation, he cannot but sense an other-worldly perfection of design. As he begins to understand the functions of his own mind, and charts the in- tricate processes of thought, he discovers man's spark of divinity in the Uncertainty Principle of quantum motion which is the biological refutation of determinism and the afiirmation of free Will. The religious man of creative scien- tiHc thought, seeking to find and interpret natureis causative agents, cannot fail to recog- nize the limits of his own capability of logical analysis, decreed by an intelligence to which there are no limits.

Unable to conceal his sly smirk, lie tells the large and enthusiastic audience that the Mam- mon School of Fine Arts represents a noble effort by Yeshiva to raise the cultural level of the coun- try. He describes the edifice to house the institu- tion as in itself a glorious work of art. The build- ing's design, he explains, embodies the outstand- ing architectural achievements of fifty centuries, Its impressive northern wall is Gothic. The south- ern wall and its graceful minarets stem from the Byzantine Period while the front and rear of the building are done in Contemporary Tenement. Clt is believed that Yeshiva's dome represents the sole artistic contribution of a lost tribe of European Neanderthalsj The eager and visibly impressed guests are then led on a tour of the new institution, in which some classes are already in session. As the group enters the building, the first sound to be heard is a resounding bellow, punctuated by several fierce-sounding snarls, coming, seemingly, from the fourth Hoor. Dashing hastily up to room 404, the guide explains that Mr. Bernard Milquetoast Landau, a reformed physicist who has assumed the role of music teacher, is coaching the choir, using a curious, red-colored pitchfork as a tuning instrument, in preparation for its first perform- ance. At this point, the tour has to be halted tem- porarily while several former physics students who have begun to beat their heads violently against the bronze doors are forcibly removed. A second surprise comes when it is discovered that the Beis Medrash has been converted into a spacious dance studio. Twinkletoes Schwartz, clad in leotards and velvet dancing slippers, and accompanied sweetly by Rabbi Whosavetsky on the piano, is performing a difficult solo before an admiring class of freshmen. A short visit to the Modern Dance class is rewarded by the sight of 5 Fc Q Rabbi Ztiweleknay leading his students in a vigor- ous can-can to 'Chile Charles' impassioned bon- gos and snappy cries of ole! As the company mounts to the second floor, a tall, spare figure is encountered walking rapidly, picket sign in hand, up and down the hall. Near- ing the group, he is heard to be muttering dis- tractedly about art, Hellenists, assimilation and basketball. Pious-looking sophomores hover around him, plotting feverishly. The sinister band finally eludes the curious stares of the guests by dashing into Room 214. The group is also permitted to sit in on a fas- cinating class in Theory of Abstraction in Art con- ducted by the goateed Senor Hawkeye. This gifted instructor holds his audience spellbound with his profound discourse. Upon concluding his lecture, the Sefior reveals to an admiring audience that he has been awarded the 81,000 first prize in the annual contest of the Village Art Society. He then unveils his painting, claiming that it represents the full expression of his mind. The masterpiece con- sists of a narrow, rectangular canvas, painted en- tirely black with uniform, vertical strokes.

Striding briskly into the room, he immediately be- gins to remonstrate with the class over its pro- crastination and general recalcitrancef, In a charming southern drawl, he then delivers his preliminary lecture in which he explains the Greek conception of beauty as idealized form and sym- metry. The students are then obliged to employ this idea in the day's exercise which is to sculpt the figure of Rabbi Dulitz reclining in a grape arbor clad in a laurel wreath. The heady smell of the vineyard is obscured by dense clouds of smoke which continuously drift through the halls. Tracing the offensive odors to their source, the group discovers Noble John Sobel, silhouetted high against the roof, puiiing contentedly on his cigar, It seems that Mr. Sobel has been commissioned to paint a mural depicting the highlights of Yeshiva's history on the underside of the dome. Lying on his back for twenty-five years, he has assumed a violent shade of green due to the dripping paint. Crowds of similarly green freshmen crowd around the master's platform, Hloining to obsoivcf' As the party passes the third-floor teachers' room, frenzied cries of Cable for Laibel, Give the brush to Lush, and intermittent shouts of Rabbi U., we love you too! are heard. Crowd- ing around the keyhole, the visitors observe the fol- lowing scene: The members of the faculty, in various degrees Of sobriety, are seated on and around a long table. Mr. Abrams is presiding over the meeting. Mr. Abrams: Well, gentlemen, this is the larg- est faculty meeting in the history of our institution. As you know, this meeting has been called for the purpose of nominating a president for the Maimo- nides Institute of Fine Arts. Dr. Belkin: Oh, my God! Rabbi Gordon: You called? Mr. Abrams: Excuse me, Dr. Belkin, I didn't have my breakfast this morning. What I meant was the Mammon School of Fine Arts. Dave, would you run across the street and get me a sunny side up. QRabbi Weinbach bows deeply and exitsl. Now remember, fellows, we are looking for a top-Hight administrator.

However, parliamentary pro- cedure must be followed. I am therefore throwing the floor open for nominations for someone to nominate me. How about you, Rocky Lou? CAt Rabbi Fulda's suggestion, Rabbi Bernstein chokes on his tea, sending his thermos crashing to the Hoor. He is led, gasping, from the room.j Mr. Abrams: Please sit down, Marlboro, Rabbi M. and don't cause any more disturbances. Yes, Mr. Leibel. Mr. Leibel: I would nominate Mr. A. Shapiro, but I'll leave it to Blossoming Shrub. After all, he's head of the department. QMr. Bloom lunges at Mr. Leibel, attempting to strike him with Webster's Unabridged Dictionary. Iunior trips him, how- ever, causing his head to strike against Mr. Heit- ner's tricycle, damaging it slightly. Mr. Heitner breaks into tears and, becoming hysterical, over- turns the table.

CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED CThe dull thud of a stone striking Mr. Cobert's forehead marks the end of his speech and the entry of Rabbi Pureness who has abandoned his picket sign in favor of a small but effective slingshot. To the strident calls of a shofar, Rabbi Pureness leaps to the table, announcing a military coup. Coach Hy Soggy, acting as bouncer, orders the basketball team to remove the intruder and Rabbi Pureness is carried away, thrashing helplessly in a volley-ball net.j Q'I'he meeting continues as Rabbi Fcldblum, ris- ing to speak, sprinkles arsenic on Mr. Abrams' sunny side up.j Rabbi Feldblum: No doubt, yiddin, you are aware of the fact that all Gedolai Yisroel have been unable to reconcile the conflict between Juda- ism and artistic Hellenism. I, however, have found the solution on both the formal and logical levels, in one of my rare microfilms of an insignificant Gaonic manuscript. Therefore, I nominate myself. fRabbi Feldblum, sensing opposition, reaches into his vest pocket, pulls out a Luger pistol, and pro- ceeds calmly to shoot three-fourths of the faculty. The rabbis then unite behind Rabbi Feldblum, pleading for divine intercession and chanting fer- vently, Five foot two, eyes of blue, Meier Simcha's the man for you .... j xltyfff A L 1 gina fVf4Tl0fV 45 00,4 011 F' 1 gZfLi.iide1'fYa1WF 067 138 0,1 I'6'Sj ef A . ss de dell DPI! 0126 to lied If Z Of '1986 0 I 'life U19 lar U2 UIQ U ly S03 i 50122 .

He announces before opening the session that this is to be his last class before his departure for a trip around the world. He then reads the itinerary of his trip, which includes several one-night stops in Paris and Samoa. Yorick then proceeds to act all the major roles in O'Neill's The Iceman Cometh, his sympathy with the characters en- abling him to give highly realistic character por- trayals. Still applauding enthusiastically, the group is ushered across the street to the Tov M'od estab- lishment which has been converted into a luncheonette. There, over knishes and chocolate milk, the progress of the Yeshiva University move- ment is heralded and there is unanimous forecast of an even more brilliant future in the centuries to come.
