The General Urgenizetien Central's Voice of the People , the General Organization, composed ot representatives from all classes, strives to bring about improvements in the appearance and functioning of the school in general, and in the conduct of the student body as a vvhole. Among its many activities are Debating, Basket- ball, Drarnatics, The Choir and the Elchanette. President, Rose Talansky and Marion Kriger Secretary, Yona Loriner Vice President, Susan Friedman and Shirley Sonnenteld Treasurer, Ruth Reutlinger rista During the past year, Arista has performed a number of services for the school. Most important has been the Coaching Squad. Arista members, as well as other qualified students, taught a variety of subjects, from Hebrew to Mathematics. Many students who had difficulty with their studies were aided by the Coaching Squad. At the beginning of the year, Arista sponsored the Big Sister League, which helped Freshmen students acclimate themselves to the activities and routines of the school. They were instrumental in easing this important period of trans- ition. For the Seniors, Arista provided helpful preparatory material for the State Scholarship Examination. Another service which Arista rendered in the scholastic field was the publication of a comprehensive required reading list for the English Regents. Tova Ordentlich and Joyce Horwitz served as leader and vice-leader respectively, in the fall term of 1952. Ruth Freeman and Leah Botwinick were leader and vice-leader during the spring term of 1953. Arista aims to increase and broaden its activities for the benefit of the school and its students. 4' -as T1 WZ-'if B- Puhlicaiions - Lilerar Board The Elchanette , our yearbook, is now in its third year of existence. In it is recorded the senior annals, written and edited by the graduating class. While the book is predominantly senior, the literary sections consist of Hebrew and English articles written by the entire school. The Literary Board consists of one representative trorn each of the undergraduate classes, plus the senior editors. Mr. David M. Horn is our able taculty adviser. The editors of this yearbook are: Estelle Sobel, Editor-in-Chief, Blu Genauer, Associate Editor, Tova Ordentlich and Helen Mintz, English Editors, Judy Rosenbaum and Shulamith Berle, Hebrew Editors, Yona Loriner, Art Editor. Publications - Business Buard Once again the financing of our year books has been undertaken by Central Publications. This group consists of one representative from each class who is responsible to the Business Managers to see that her class fulfills its quota of money. Central Publications may well be proud of the fact that it has successfully reached its quota for this year. On behalf of the senior class, Publications wishes to extend its gratitude to the entire student body whose cooperation has made this possible. This year the Business Managers were Naomi Wertheim and Adele Aron- ovvsky. Mr. David M. Horn served as our faculty adviser. The Debating Smciet It has long been an honor and a privilege tor students of high intelligence and superior abilities to be admitted to the Debating Society of Central Yeshiva. Here, both sides, in a provocative manner, express their opinions on such con- troversial issues as United Military Training and Federal Aid to Education. Even though our debates with other schools have been limited, we are very proud ot the work ot our team. Manager Y Sylvia Liss The Spark Central's monthly publication The Spark is now terminating its fourth year of existence. This year The Spark, under the supervision of Mr. Bassell and Miss Cohen, has made great advancements. The function of a school newspaper is to print school news and to give the girls experience in iournalism. In both these purposes The Spark has succeeded. The Spark includes not only English features that are both interesting and informative, but also many Hebrew features. The many columns include editorials, school news, inquiring reporter, sports and puzzles. This year the managing staff of The Spark consisted of, Saranne Eskolsky and Anne Rosen- baum, Co-editors in English, Edith Pearlman, Assistant editor, and Florence Leibowitz and Leah Botwinick, Co-editors in Hebrew. We all hope The Spark will continue along the wonderful path it has set for itself. The English Un-imatics Social One of the most successful parts of our school program is the Dramatics Society whose purpose is to develop the acting talents of our students, thus enabling them to take part in dramatic productions. 4 This year, under the able direction of Mr. Paul Ravetch, the Dramatics Society gave a memorable performance of King David Operetta at our Chanukah affair. A hard-working group, it has devoted itself diligently to making the Dramatics Society a complete success. Hebrew Uramatics Club The Hebrew Dramatics Club, as its name implies, presents Hebrew plays at our assemblies and celebrations. Under the careful and meticulous guidance of Mrs. Gazith, Central's Hebrew plays are always acclaimed a howling success. To find out what the club does in-between plays, iust drop the middle word. And there you have it - Hebrew Club. The girls discuss world events of Jewish interest, a contemporary Hebrew author and his works, and other matters. Whatever the topic, the important thing is that the discussions are always held in Hebrew. We sincerely hope that this club will inspire all the girls to realize The importance, necessity and beauty ot the Hebrew language, especially in our time - the time of Medinat Yisrael. ,Elf The Service Squad An outstanding example of cooperation and school spirit is found in the Service Squad. Composed of two representatives from each class, the Service Squad's job is to make our school a model of cleanliness and decorum. However, its most important duty is enlisting student cooperation so that it may reach its goal. In the past semester the position of Service Squad Manager has been established as an elected office. Evelyn Rudott was elected to this post, and under her leadership the Service Squad has sponsored a Poster Contest, Service Squad Week and Clean-up Competition in order to arouse student interest. The Service Squad is always on the iob, proving that it is a great asset to the school. The Lilirar One of the greatest assets to our school is its library. Essential to every student, it plays a great role both in our recreation and education. Just two years ago the idea of a library in Central was only a dream. However, through the combined efforts of the students and the faculty, our dream was realized. The library consists of both Hebrew and English novels, textbooks, and excellent reference sources and encyclopedias. The squad of librarians consists of representatives from each class, who are working together to complete the necessary adiustments for the books and to acquaint our student body with them. The squad is ably led by Marion Kriger. At present, the library is in its early stages of development. With confidence in the continued interest and participation of the students, it is certain that the library will grow and will soon fulfill its great potentialities. ef' 1 ,le 41- X' ,F if . pk '25 in , su s in ' AuT0,SEXT ii6vgg .

For the first time, we have com- peted with schools other than Ramaz. We won an overwhelming victory from Yeshiva of Flatbush. Manager - Debby Rybak The Cheating Squad This year, not only did Central have a cheering squad but there was also one organized for B.T.A. The Central squad consists of tive cheerleaders and approximately 25 boosters, who are members of various classes throughout the school. Thru their peppy cheers, they have injected spirit, and boosted the morale of the players at many of our games. We are certain that in the future, they will be able to partake in many more of Central's victories knowing that thru their efforts they helped make it a success. B.T.A.'s cheering squad, although new, has progressed rapidly, and thru its many cheers has put much spirit into many of the B.T.A. games. This squad also consists of five girls and many boosters. As a novelty this year, twirling was introduced in many of the cheers. lt seemed to work out quite well, and we hope it will be continued. This year both squads were under the leadership of Sura Schreiber. .4 .frat QC.- ew Horizons The Twentieth Century witnessed the coming of many significant trans- formations in our civilization. One of the most far-reaching of these changes was the improvement of the status of woman. For the first time, many fields of endeavor were opened to feminine participation. Woman was freed from the narrow confines of her home and entered many new spheres of activity such as science, industry, business, and politics. She ioined the ranks of the wage earners and became financially independent. In due time, women were also accorded a place on political councils and helped shape world policies. With the extension of their responsibilities women have come to appreci- ate the importance of education as a prerequisite for intelligent execution of their new duties. Consequently, educational facilities for women have been greatly expanded. The Jewish woman, too, has made significant strides in the past fifty years. Many new and important tasks have been assigned to her. She has assumed a larger responsibility for the education and training of Jewish youth. Through her work for national and international charitable and relief organi- zations, the Jewish woman plays a decisive role in community life. Jewish women have worked ceaselessly for the establishment of Medinat Yisroel, and for the improvement of the condition of world Jewry. In order to adequately discharge these manifold duties, the Jewish woman must have a thorough knowledge of the language, history, laws and customs of her people. It is essential that every Jewish woman be well versed in the precepts of the Torah, for the very existence of the Jewish people is dependent upon this, our priceless heritage. TOVA ORDENTUCH John arshall A desire to institute justice and unity among men is not born within, nor is it suddenly acquired. The roots of these concepts are deeply embedded in him during his childhood, and continue to grow and develop throughout his later years. Thus it was with John Marshall. He was born and raised in a small frontier town in Virginia, in 1755. The frontier itself was a symbol of thriving democracy in which each man was socially and economically equal. lt was in this atmosphere that the first seeds of justice and unity were firmly embedded in the heart and mind of John Marshall. At the age of i8 he began to study law, but gave it up to enter the Army. He took part in the famous Revolutionary battles of Germantown and Valley Forge. As a result of these battles, he was appointed a lieutenant in the lith Virginia Regiment. From the time of his election to the State Assembly six years later until the adoption of the Constitution, Marshall was almost continuously a member of the Virginia Legislature. His course in Congress was characterized through- out by independence of character and level-headed good sense, of which his various Congressional activities afford abundant evidence. Later, President Adams appointed his Secretary of State. The following year, in i8Ol, John Marshall became Chief Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, an office which he held until his death. The first task of Marshall and the Court was to demonstrate what had been called the efficiency of the Constitution. lt was demonstrated in this way: He said: lt is emphatically the province and duty of the Judicial Depart- ment to say what the law is. Those who wish to apply the rule to particular cases must of necessity interpret the rule. If two laws conflict, it is for the courts to decide upon the operation of each. This is the very essence of judicial duty . When asked what the Government of the U, S. was for, he replied: The Government of the American nation is emphatically a government of the people, because it is the government of all. Its powers are delegated by all. lt represents and acts for all . As Chief Supreme Court Justice it was Marshall's duty not only to inter- pret the Constitution, but to convince the people that his interpretation was correct. He reasoned that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and that the Supreme Court is the final interpreter of the law. Many are the great men who have owed their success in life to a mother's loving helpfulness and alert understanding. Marshall, on the other hand, was his father's child. He was once known to have said: My father was far abler than any one of his sons. To him I owe the solid foundation of all my success in life According to Edward S. Corwin, the writer of a biography of Marshall, his appearance befitted a man of his station. This quotation from his book describes him in greater detail: Marshall was always dignified looking. His tall, loosely-jointed figure gave an impression of freedom, while his finely- shaped head and strong, penetrating eyes indicated intelligence and power. Directness and simplicity were his dominant characteristics. He always showed respect for women and devotion to his wife and family . ln 1783, Marshall was married to Mary Willis Ambler, the daughter of the State Treasurer of that time. His loving wife died on Christmas Day of l83l. He grieved greatly, even though she had been an invalid for some time. ln March of l807, Col. Aaron Burr, once Vice-President of the U. S. was brought before Chief Justice Marshall on the charge of treason. Thus began the greatest trial in American History, and one of the rnost noted in the annals of law. Burr was found to be Not Guilty , while most of the evidence pointed to his guilt. This episode ended Burr's political career. Marshall died the evening of July 6th, l835, surrounded by three of his sons. The death of a fourth, as the result of an accident while hurrying to his father's bedside, was kept from him. He also left a daughter and numer- ous grandchildren. Above all, Marshall is famous for making the Constitution a living thing, capable of growth, capable of keeping pace with the advancement of the American people and ministering to their changing needs. BARBARA GROSS ith Liltert and Justice For All The greatest menace to society today is preiudice. Preiudice is an evil emotion based on ignorance. It denies freedom-loving people of Their G-d given rights of equality and iustice. It has turned man against man and brother against brother, blinding people to the cause for which the founders of this country dedicated their lives. It has denied many young men and women their rights in the fields of education, industry and social contacts . Preiudice has been the source ot delinquency and unpatriotic feelings among the people of this country. A child who is persecuted by preiudice may acquire an inferiority complex, or a pessimistic outlook on life. He feels that his country has let him down by not living up to its claimed principles. Unable to find his place in society, he may resort to crime to give vent to his emotions. All this can be avoided, if people would only realize that living together in harmony will enrich them as well as their country. Our country is powerful today because people of all races and creeds have come to settle in The Land of Opportunity . America has been enriched with the culture and wisdom of many nations. Such people as Marconi, Edison, Booker T. Washington and Haym Solomon, have contributed to our country's greatness in the fields of science, art, finance, and education. People of all races and religions have fought side by side in great wars to defend our country. Surely, these things prove the value of unity among all people. It is our responsibility, as the youth of America, to discourage preiudices of all kinds, so that the world may become a better place to live in, a place where the words with liberty and justice for all will stand as a guiding light for all humanity.

Did she have tour? They say I got my mouth and chin From grandma's uncle Beniaming He died before I came, you see. And must have willed them both to me.

Or do you think that it can be, There's something here that's really me? EVA KRAUS ature Over and over the cycle repeats, Showing in its glory Nature's mystic feats. Againand again the seasons come and go, Bringing rain and wind sleet and snow. The hot, flaming, golden sun and the pale, soft light of the moon, The stars twinkling like a thousand lights on a cool night in June. All the beauty of Nature's power, We watch filled with delight at an April shower. The soft Ioveliness of an opening the smell of lilacs sweet, All in a wondrous rainbow of color give to the eye an unusual treat. We watch the bare limbs bud and then the buds blossom, We see the merry games of the racoon and the possum. YOSS We watch the cocoon as a new life unfolds. We watch forms of life fill out their patterns and molds We watch the caterpillar die as a butterfly is born. We view with wonder the freshness of a sum er morn. m We see the majestic force of sunset in July. We see birds with wings soaring up in the sky. We hear the resounding clamour of thunder when it storms, And realize we are humble, lt's G-d who us forms. We watch the leaves fall as they turn red, gold, and brown, And enioy their lush carpet as we tread on the ground. And then the first snow comes a blanket of glistening white, Only Nature could produce this -- this awe-filling sight. These make up Nature and are repeated every year, The universe may change, but these are forever here. SYLVIA SAIDLOWER Fra er Europe, 1945, a Displaced Person's Camp. All faces are wrinkled and pale. Crouched in a dark, lonely corner is a lad of Twelve with the experience of disaster that not even an elder should know. Despair, anguish, utter un- certainty. What next? What will the future bring? The future that looks so grey, the future in which not even the sun can pierce through those dark clouds hanging above him. Where to turn he does not know - to The East is the barbed wire fence, West the cannons, to the North desolation and South the graves of his loved ones. Would not he have been better To be among them, among those who had finally escaped? But There is one way to which he has not yet turned. And then he sees the glimmer of hope, the spark of light which no wind can extinguish. Way up there, high above These almost tangible clouds, there is a Judge of Mercy and Justice. This lad now pleads his case before the Merciful One above. This boy who until now was lost, has found new life, new hope through prayer. Danger, despondency, anguish, sorrow, discontent, a troubled heart, all brought out this impulse to pray, to appeal and petition G-d for help. All of us at one time or another have also had our disappointments in life and have appealed to a power beyond natural laws, one that can adjust itself and operate in our favor. Thus we try to build a definite pathway be- man and man. Understanding, comradeship and kindness are the basis for a true friendship. We, the creations of the Almighty, also wish to create a true friendship between us. And so, just as we try to see our friends as often as possible, we meet with G-d in prayer and thank Him for His kindness, find joy in adoring Him, confess our transgressions to Him and consecrate ourselves to carry out His will. Through prayer man makes a companion of G-d. This companionship creates a vital change in his character. It is impossible to be unjust when one is aware of His just nature. One cannot seek revenge when one knows His forgiving spirit, and one cannot long be contemptuous of others when one realizes that He is the Father of all men in all times and places. The worshipper is the beggar beseeching the Almighty above for favors. But prayer is not only a form of pleading or praising G-d. lt also gives us courage when danger threatens and confidence in ourselves when doubts spring up. It quiets our fears, removes false worries and gives us tranquility and patience, for we know the matter rests not in our hands. We remember that G-d sees all, knows all and does what is iust. If our prayers are not answered perhaps they should not have been asked and we must say 7531155 my EJ for our minds are limited and cannot understand the divine ways of the Almighty. G-d does not need prayer, G-d has no need of our praise. But why then, we may ask, do we praise Him? Is He like an arrogant monarch or a vain tyrant who needs flattery? On the contrary., to praise G-d is to exalt .man. Just as we must sleep and eat every day, we must also refresh our memories of His glory and power. A good example of this is the Shema . ln this prayer we request nothing of G-d but we affirm that G-d is One. G-d does not have to be reminded of this but man must be reminded that only One G-d is to be worshipped. Just as G-d is One so is mankind one - One Father in heaven for all the children of men, One Creator who implanted His divinity in every human being. How important this reminder is to the average man, who is all too ready to yield to hatred and preiudice, to take advantage of his fellows and use his neighbor to his own purpose. Look at the sky, at the birds, the trees, the sun, the moon and stars. is it possible for man to be conscious of all these marvels and not speak forth his praise and gratitude to the Creator? ls it possible after this not to fear G-d? When men fear G-d, they fear no man. When men have ceased to fear G-d they fear every man. Prayer conquers fear and gives assurance that justice will be established, that not by power or deceit, but by the spirit of G-cl do men prevail. JUDY MILLER s Pita er ls nswered Oh, Jews! You have suffered, you have been humbled, Over rocks and thorns you have stumbled. You have been tortured, you have been slain, You have endured the terrible pain, That even the greatest could not sustain. Why, why was the lingering question, Why were you under the hands of oppression? Had the shepherd forgotten his guided flock? Why had he put upon you the lock, Of chains? And then there arose a deafening sound, From the prisons in which the people were found. From the people who asked for kindness, And had been led as if in blindness, Deep down under the ground. And this deafening sound went up and up, Until it reached the flowing cup of tears. And the tears overflowed that Kingdom serene, Until upon the gates of heaven they did lean. The gates were pushed open, There was a clash and a boom, And all at once was revealed the room, Where sat G-d, our Father, our King. And G-d saw it all, He heard your penetrating call. As the mother eagle tends her young, So G-d picked up his chosen throng , Upon his wings. He carried them to a new land, A land where oppression and anguish were banned. A land without misery and sorrow, Thus, G-d gave the Jews Hope for tomorrow! NAOMl ROITMAN The Uld mild Luul-is to the ew I often wonder whether it is with great awe that the world of old gazes at the miraculous advances in this modern age of ours, or if the world of old rather looks down with scorn upon the evils which the men of the Atomic Age have brought upon themselves. The more I ponder over this question the more strongly I am convinced that the answer lies both in the negative and in the affirmative. lt is possible to picture men of the world of old bewildered and aston- ished bythe fantastic innovations in the world of today. If one of our ancestors were to visit our civilization, how astonished he would be to see the inconceiv- able things which are part of everyday life. We take electric lighting for granted. To an outsider, electric lighting would probably seem as miraculous an accomplishment as if man were to transport the sun to his land of magic. Men of today have the very streams of nature generating power for use in their factories. In the factories, men turn out thousands of products a minute, from automobiles to oleomargarine, and from nylons to typewriters. At home, one has but to push a button to light a fire, to set an alarm clo:k, or to set an automatic iron in action. One has but to dial a telephone to be able to speak to people miles and miles away. Ours is indeed an age of wonders! Perhaps the men of the world of old see our age in an entirely different light. Perhaps they are horrified by the terrific uses to which men have put their inventions. How scornful the world of old must be of the men who have wiped out entire cities with their inventions, the atomic bomb! How they must abhor the advances in warfare, advances whose only aim is to kill and destroy! Perhaps the men of the world of old are mocking the lack of family life which television has brought about, for even very primitive men realized the importance of the home as a center of family life. Perhaps they are laugh- ing at man's greed and materialism which have made him forget the very essentials of good life in his ever increasing desire for more and more wealth and more and more luxuries. The old world looks to the new. It it with admiration or with scorn? L SUSAN FRIEDMAN The Fifth AHIHVEISEII of Israel A5 A Nation When Israel was accepted into the U. N., was it Israel or the world that finally became of age? Some would have us believe that is was only through the benign efforts of the U. S. that Israel had become a full fledged member of the family of nations and that a great honor was bestowed upon her. Is this really so? The struggle of Israel for recognition by the U. N. only magnified the great necessity and urgency by the world for a moral and stabilizing in- fluence in the solution of the world's problems. History is a silent but eloquent witness attesting to the failure of the nations of the world to cure the ills of mankind. For thousands of years cilivi- zation has wrought more and more havoc upon mankind until we now stand upon the threshold of utter destruction and annihilation. Throughout all these centuries, amidst all this chaos, the Jew was used as a scapegoat. And yet despite prejudice and persecution, the Jew has sur- vived. In the face of the grave he has defied death. ls it possible for any ordinary group to withstand torture and destruction for so long a period and rise above it? ls there any group of people that has steadfastly refused to perish or even become assimilated under the influence of other cultures? Where are the ancient Romans, the Assyrians and the Babylonians? They had distinct cultures of their own, a land of their own, they were nations - but where are they now? They who were determined to wipe the Jews off the face of the earth perished and the Jew still exists and shall at last have a hand in shaping the world of the future. No, the U. N. didn't make Israel a nation. Israel had become a nation at Mt. Sinai. It became a nation when the Torah was given to her and she was told to live by it. The Torah was its constitution. It did not matter whether they were Persian Jews, or Marranos in Spain, or Jews living on the Rhine. A Jewish nation they were - with the Torah and Zion the uniting factors. lt was the old, bearded Jews sitting day and night over the Talmud and it was the young Yeshiva bachurim all over the world who, with their burning zeal of study, kept lsrael's fire of nationhood bright. So it is in America as well. The students of the Yeshiva, by their studies, by their interest in Jewish affairs, by their self-identification with the Jewish cause, have all helped to keep the idea of nationhood alive for these many years. And it is these students who are now leaving the portals of Central Yeshiva High School and are facing the world, who will have the opportunity to play a very important role as members of Israel. Because of their highly trained background, it will be incumbent upon them to continue to express themselves actively and sympathet- ically with the future of Israel. No, it is not that the U. N. has honored Israel with recognition - rather is it the world that has been honored and has much to gain by this happy alliance. With the Torah as its guide, Israel will be an enlightening force towards the formation of a really brave new world for the future. ROSE TALANSKY Ereahnn.

NAOMI ROITMAN The rain pours down heavily, bathing the hard winter earth in an elixir, each drop a crystallation of a hope e a dream - bearing its golden message from the heavens to the long dormant earth. Arise! Awake! Stir up! These words haunt the human ear - taunt- ingly deficient of the cold winds. There comes a stirring, a breath as sweet and warm as a lover's kiss. What is it? What is that awakening, that hidden feeling inside us that bears a mysterious message which one knew but has long since forgotten? What is it that twists the dreary everyday thoughts of the troubled world to sonorous pipedreams mirrored in every youthful face? What is this half-smile that breaks to the surface of our lips, recalling the deep recesses that lay hidden inside us, buried in the heart of humanity - dormant, submitting to convictions, plagues and admonitions? It is a calling, a solitary voice in the night, whose whisper we hear, but cannot command our bodies to disobey. Turn away! You cannot - it spreads its silken web of fantasy over your brain, cloud- ing you in untold dreams, which you sought to destroy by lozking up the inside of you as a miser locks his most precious possession out of sight, destroy- ing its value. But then . . . A shaft of sunlight streams into your heart, lighting up your secluded treasures. What is it that comes in the night and renders you powerless, capturing your senses, leaving you heady with the thoughts of it? What is it? ls it love riding on the wings of Spring gathering to her bosom all lost and forgotten souls, healing, making whole the tortured soul of man whose endurance of the elements has embittered him against all mankind? Spring - love. In their passing they leave the old and everlasting symphony of life. What is that symphony? What is that deep pulsating throb from which the flood of life issues forth as a gushing stream, nourishing the parched souls of man, filling him with love that echoes forth in spontaneous laughter or avows endless devotion as silently as a kiss? What is it? No one will tell you. But - Look up! Feel the torrent of rain on your face, that surge of life flow- ing through your veins. Awake! To the myriad of colors and wonders about you. Reioice! For at the termination of your awakening an inner peace and solitude will fill you. And, floating on the surface of your soul you will find it . . ln all its rnaiesty and splendor M What is it? ' lt is G-dl PEARL KIDANSKY ldnl nl illinns It would be false for me to claim him as a god whom I created from my imagination since for many years ago he was already known to be an idol of millions . I am not the only one who worshipped this great god of sports, the king of baseball, Babe Ruth. I was a mere child of ten that summer day in August of nineteen hundred and twenty eight. I, along with hundreds of other fans, stood outside the Yankee Clubhouse- awaiting the Babe . I had heard of the great Babe Ruth but had never seen him before. I waited impatiently on the side-walk, trying to see as best as I could. Suddenly, the door opened and out streamed the tired players. No one had to tell me who he was for l recognized him by the mob which stood around him clamoring for his autograph. Being a good natured fellow he began to sign each autograph book. When it came to my turn he looked down at me and said, Come now, sonny, you know that I don't sign on scraps of paper . So saying he tore up my precious piece of paper. My heart froze within me. Tears welled up in my eyes. The big man, seeing how much he had hurt me, smiled and quickly took out of his wallet a crisp, new dollar bill and signed his name on it. Here, sonny , he said, this is for you . I stood in a daze with the bill in my hand, and after I came down to earth I realized that he was gone. From that time on Babe Ruth was my idol. I, along with millions of other fans, worshipped him deeply. The years passed swiftly and the great star began to fade, It was a sad day for him and a million fans when he laid away his Yankee uniform. Still we worshipped and cherised him. Alas, one always must reach that final bend in the road that leads to a quiet rest. Four years ago, my hero and my idol passed away, but only in body. In spirit he will always live on in my heart and in the hearts of millions of fans who loved him so.
