JOSH BACON Josh came to Y.U.H.S. after a misspent youth in Yeshiva of Spring Valley where he was famous for his equanimity. In fact, he was so cool that to the untrained eye he appeared to be asleep. A dynamo of energy, he served as class representa- tive to the G.O. and played on the Varsity Basketball Team. Musically inclined, Josh plays both the guitar and the piano. He also brought harmony to all his classes with his warm outgoing personality and friendly humor. This Monsey boy, loved by all, will be sorely missed in the East while he pur- sues the career of his choice at City. .fx .1 -'mm :rx wow: nu: wmv ABRAHAM BAHARAV Abraham came to YUHS from Yeshiva Zichron Moshe in his freshman year. During his four years here he acquired a repu- tation with his rabbis as a minor heretic and with his friends as a master fake-outl' artist. He is rather proud of the latter accomplishment, the art of oircumventing the issue, which he perfected during his long T.A. shiurim. Always in search of worthwhile crusades, Abe is a member of the Stu- dent Struggle for Soviet Jewry and the American Junior Red Cross. lntramurally he served on our checker teams. He will study for the occupation of his choice at Yeshiva College. .0 vbwm Braun: vnnw -nmrn

MENACHEM ADMON During his stay at Y.U.H.S., Manny had the unique advan- tage of combining characteristics of a Sabra and a Queens resident. While spending his Saturday nights in the famous borough, Manny employed his Israeli diligence in curricular and extra-curricular endeavors, being one of the few four-year members of the T.I. Aleph class, and a member of the Library Squad and Chess Team. The self-styled leader of M.T.A.'s Avante-garde, he often traveled all the way to mid-town Manhattan in search of literature. However, next year Manny won't have to journey so far for intellectual stimulation as he TZVI ATIK Tzvi, duly nicknamed Mahatma by Rabbi Dulitz, went through high school practicing passive resistance. Rebelling against the regimen of school life in his own quiet manner, Tzvi's humorous remarks livened up many a dull class. His extra-curricular activities include membership on the Awards Committee, the Elchy Photography Staff, and the intramural Math Team. Though accredited by some of his pedagogues as a true peripatetic somnambulist, TZ Six nevertheless pro- ceeded to win a National Merit Letter of Commendation. Tzvi will further his education at Queens or Yeshiva College. .qua ,n max 'puny Sax: vw 'IIZIJD 'vp continues his studies at Queens College. .qna niwmny 'Jrrrx pwxwn xxn

HARRY BAJNON Combining high academic achievement with athletic excel- lence and a warm outgong personality, Harry quickly endeared himself to the student body at Y.U.H.S. An accomplished student, Baj was a member of the advanced math class for four years and was elected to Arista'in his junior year. Put- ting his .athletic prowess to good use, he was a member of the Basketball and Baseball Teams and captain of the Bowling Team. Harry was especially noted for his proficiency in Tal- mud although occasionally he got bailed upi' while learning on Thursday nights. We wish him only the best in his pursuit of a career in medicine at Yeshiva. .qua ,n vbwm nn: auxin: mann SAMUEL BAKER Sam, a conscientious and serious-minded student, came to our school from Bexley Junior High School in Ohio just look- ing for trouble. Armed with a bottle of tranquilizers, he took every available elective plus Latin. He also voluntarily trans- ferred into Mr. Shapiro's and Rabbi Dulitz's English classes. When not busy satisfying his mad suicidal tendencies, Sam worked on the G.O. Awards Committee and on our Dorm Council. A master of his favorite subject, history, Samuel also made dorm history with his unparalleled minyan attendance record. His quiet, reserved manner, which marks him as a truly fine individual, will serve him well as he prepares for a career in law at either Capital University or Ohio State Uni- versity. .qn ,zz 'nximzrp '-r un nx mum 'mvnwi
