U ll 0 l P'- 4 at--4 5--J L'--J 5.--2 V-...J P. FINAL PAYMENT MADE Miss Susan Weiser, Asst. Secretary of the U.S. Treas- ury, revealed today that in her high school days she was business manager of the Central Yeshiva High School for Girls graduating journal. She accepted this position in a moment of wild abandon, and has been paying tlit- erallyj for it ever since. However, yesterday, in a historic meeting with the now greying printer, Miss Weiser made the final pay- ment. Letters were sent to all living alumni requesting them to come or send for their copies of the ELCHANETTE. NEW SCHOOL OPENS The New York State Board of Education today an- nounced the chartering of a new progressive school. Miss Joyce Friedman, headmistress, outlined for us in a special interview the schools program. Its most progressive feat- ures are no tests, no homework, small classes, and in- formal companionship between students and teachers. The idea for this school germinated during the time of Miss Friedman's high school days which were spent in C.Y.H.S. Her experiences in Central convinced her that tests and homework are not the best methods of impart- ing knowledge. POSTMISTRESS GENERAL APPOIN TED The Senate of Bali-Hi today approved the appointment of Miss Hadassah Judy Kashtan as Postmistress General. This was a token of appreciation for her patronage of postage stamps. ln her acceptance speech, Miss Kashtan outlined her plan for reduced rates for all Bail-Hi students who correspond with the outside world.

Many years ago it was her ambition to be sent on a 'lMach0n . Due to a lack of funds Camong other things! her stay in the U.S. was prolonged. After finally reaching 'lAretz she is now returning to fulfill her obligations. We wish her the best of luck in this venture. CATASTROPHE IN PRINTING - PRINTERS STARVING President of the printing monopoly, john L. Mazel, startled the public with her revealing testimony in front of a Congressional Investigating Committee. She at- tributed the failure of the printing industry to the machi- nations of Senior Classes and their failure to pay. It has finally resulted in a general physical and mental break- down of printers. As a remedy john L. Mazel suggested the Financing of all yearbooks by the government. - Twenty-Nine - 4 i ,-LT-1 l f----l --4 r--4 02'---4 I I
