J l I Ji J li lk +L ,KQ l IIERVYN FRANKEL Mervyn, one of the most respected students in his class, is possessed of one of the finest intellects in the school. His main interests are directed toward mathematics, reading and gemara. His unquenchable thirst for Torah has kept him high on the list of the best learners in the class. Mervyn also has man- aged to find time to participate in interscholastic checkers, be a member of the Elchy photography staff, and serve as Copy Editor of the Hatchiya. He already has a foothold in Yeshiva College, as he is in a col- lege shiur, and plans to pursue his major in mathe- matics there. His fine disposition and consideration for others. make us wish him success in his future studies, and in Torah learning. .Ca 'bww pwx mn: 'Fannin MICHAEL FRANKEL Michael Mechy Frankel, a Washington Heigths boy, has retained the admiration of his fellow stu- dents throughout his four-year stay at our school. Whatever he has attempted he has succeeded in doing well. A former member of the ,l.V. Basket- ball Team, Mechy can be seen playing his favorite sport at any free moment. An excellent math stu- dent, he was one of the few chosen for the Yeshiva's first college math class. His activities are very di- verse, some of them being Business Manager of the Academy News. Assistant Editor of the Class of '64- and captain of the Handball Team. We are sure Mechy will excel as he attends Y.U., where he hopes to major in Math. .qfa rffyp ibm nbvra my

BENNETT FINER Bennett is one of the unusual breed of students known as 'Ramazitesf Coming from this rival 'Ye- shivaf Ben has found a truly personal spot in the heart of our school's much-beloved principal. An adept 'bottlerf Bennett has often been discovered meandering around the basketball court downstairs, where he has achieved recognition as a very fine ball handler. One of his most enriching experiences is his frequent trip to Brooklyn where he is spiritually up- lifted. .CI 111381 FI2'1TI 73117711 . ..Tl21'17J 71325773711 TRP D115 MARTIN FIALKOFF Since Martin came to us as a sophomore from Providence Hebrew Day School. he has been active in such S.O.Y. committees as the Chavrusa and Shatnes Committees. His unbounded yearning' for Talmud has made him pursue for himself an ad- vanced Torah study, in which he completed Tractate Megillah last year. His scrutinizing mind has made him a star pupil in Babbi Feldblum's and Rabbi Parnes' class. He is an active worker for Agudas Israel and has attended Camp Agudah. Martin will enter Brooklyn Night College and will continue his Talrnudical studies by day at Torah Vodaath Tal- mudical College. He expects to be a Talmud teacher and a Rabbi!an excellent one, we are sure. .1'f1'JD2 1515 D51575 'VND

ALLEN FRIEDLAND Allen is a student who divides his time equally be- tween loyalty to Yeshiva and to Israel. Allen came to our hallowed halls in his junior year from Rabbi .Iacob Joseph High School. He soon found his place among the students of our Talmud Department. A11en's great creativity and interest in writing made him a logical choice as Literary Editor of the Elchanite. His active participation in Mizrachi Hatzair has made him our candidate for the most likely to settle in Israelw award. His zionistic leanings will begin to see their realization when he attends Yeshivat Be- yavneh in Israel prior to his studying for semicha at Y.U. .qnffy nvbnnp um' nawn awww 1n:vm mx MANNES FRIEDMAN Mannes combines exceptional intelligence with a wonderfully warm and friendly personality. He holds the respect and affection of all of his acquaintances as shown by his election to the vice-presidency of the Class of '64, to the C.O. and to the Awards Com- mittee. Mannes lit up an extremely dark year for Mr. Magoo with his sagacious compositions. In his Hebrew subjects Mannes has especially excelled. It was rumored for a time that Mannes was the pet of a certain rabbi-teacher-psychologist, but this was later disproved. Dubbed by 'Willy' Wollman, a keen judge of human character, 'fthe athlete, Mannes lived up to this appellation by playing J.V. basketball and par- ticipating in many interscholastic teams. We are sure that Mannes will succeed as he prepares for a career in Hebrew at the college of his choice. nm: mpnn nm wmv: nm: nv-ann rn-nv 5: .qu mnxp umm P7 W7 1 , fl-7 ' I 1 I I I F I ,1 in f b .1-.-A-.W i , ,iv--frjif' 1 A I I 0 A I y I 'M I tt a i -s L L,-
