G-D COUNTS HER TEARS By PHYLLIS LAUER People mocked the fact that I was planning to continue my Jewish education. They had said, and frankly led me to believe, that the active roles in Judaism were reserved for the male, for a woman's role in Jewish life should be a passive one. What a different understanding of our heritage and way of life the studies of Jewish History and Jewish Ethics have given me. These classes have taught me that, on the contrary, Judaism and Jewish life are built to a great extent around the active role that a Jewish woman must take. The basis of Jewish social life is the family, and Proverbs teaches us, Hear my son, the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the teaching of thy mother. The mother's role was placed higher than the father's, for it was realized that if is the Jewish mother who raises the child in accordance with the precepts of the Torah, and conducts her home in a manner which illustrates the beauty of Jewish life, while the father is away all day earning a livelihood for his family. In no way is the Jewish woman looked upon ? by the Talmud as being inferior to the man. Her it - af R J is sphere of activity is different from man's but no , ' . ' 'jf .f less significant. It is to the woman that our Talmud , -f , Q -L. apply themselves to Torah and Jewish study assigns the credit if her husband and children . :I l f I :N 17 Q, 1, -0' R-w... A-'NT-T! Ef X K gl , is A conclusive proof of woman's dominant place in Jewish life is the undeniable fact that the hal- lowing of the Jewish home is her work. Our sages duly recognized her wonderful spiritual influence. As the Talmud puts it, Love thy wife as thyself and honor her more than thyself Be careful not to cause woman lo weep for G-D counts her tears. Although in these modern United States equality was granted to woman through the Suffrage Act as late as 1920, Genesis tells us, HG-D created man in his own image, male and female created He themf, Both man and woman are in their spiritual nature equal to G-D and both were invested with the same authority. The wives of the Jewish forefathers are considered in the same light as their husbands. Devorah was a judge in Israel. Huldah was a prophetess and Salome Alexander was a queen in the times of the Second Temple. The heroic acts of Jewish women are responsible for the turn of history in so many cases. We need only mention Queen Esther, Ghana and her seven sons and Judith in the time of the Maccabbees. 1 it fe' up Central is teaching and amply preparing us for the role we must play as future Jewish women. The magnitude of this role' is something that will be found only in diaries of later, -later dates. 1 1,-,,,.,. wt... A Music test such fun. Can even write with lipstick.

Evelyn Schiff wins the Journal American Oratorical Contest with her essay on Abraham Lincoln. ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND I, THE PENNY By EVELYN SCHIFF Although my worth is the lowest in the land, I bear the face of the greatest American whose story from beginning to end is a symphony of courage and com- passion. I remember once when I was held in the palm of a five year old boy who pointed to my face and asked, Father, who is that man on the penny?', The father looked a moment and then replied, That man, my son, opened the gates that locked us in and let us walk out freef, How proud I am to wear the face of Abraham Lincoln. F l ave IT H 55 When I find myself in a humble home, where poverty has discouraged the family, I feel like shouting, 4'The greatest leader in American history was born in just such a home as yours. When I am with a person struggling to make something of himself against over- whelming odds, he has only to look at my face and remember the heritage of hope Abraham Lincoln has left him. He was very poor and lived from hand to mouth, but that did not discourage him. He was always trying to better himself by reading. Recently I accidentally fell and rolled on the oliice floor of a young lawyer. He picked me up and, when he looked at my face, a smile of relief spread over his features, and he said to a colleague, t'Abe Lincoln never pleaded a case if he thought his client was in the wrong, and neither will I. For a while I was the lucky piece on the desk of a history teacher, and many wonderful things I heard her tell her class about her favorite former president. '6Uprightness of character has its own reward and is soon noticed by the people around us, she said. The natural kindliness of Abrahamfs tone, softening prejudice and disarming ill feeling, would often open, to his reasoning, minds most unwilling to receive it. Sympathy was the strongest and predominating element in his nature. As his sympathy went forth to others, it attracted others to him. He had grown up among the plain people and they felt drawn to him. In his ways of thinking and feeling he had become a gentleman in the highest sense of the word, but the polish did not extend to his exterior. He never lost that look of rusticity, and people in all walks of life considered him one of them. That was the introduction she gave the class, before she told them of his entering politics, his great speech in Congress on anti-slavery, the debates he had with Douglas, who believed that slavery was a matter of choice, and himself who wanted to abolish it. Douglas said, G-D has put good and evil before man and told him to make his choicef, Lincoln replied, on the con- trary, G-D has told man about the tree that bore the fruit of evil and forbade him to partake of it. Once, I, the penny found myself in a psychiatrist's oliice, listening to a patient's tale of woe. You think you have trouble, the doctor told him, Well, listen to this story about a man, a man who was the gentlest and most peace loving of mortals, a man who could not witness pain without feeling a pang of pain himself. Such a man found himself called upon to lead his country into one of the bloodiest civil wars. As Lincoln had stated, 'A house divided amongst itself cannot stand.' U I was lying on the desk with some other pennies, in a little girl's room when I heard her mother tell her the story of Cinderella and how she for- gave her wicked sisters when she became a princess. nd..

When President Lincoln began, his opponents , ' stood before him baliied and humiliated. He did V not lose a minute to stretch his hand out in friendship and say, 'May I ask those that were with me join with me, those that were against me. I was resting lightly in the pocket of a little boy who was standing in front of the statue of the great man whose face I bear. The father told him, This president was killed by a fanatic who thought he was an enemy, but he was the best friend this country ever had. Come let us read together the words inscribed on the statue.

IT IS A WOMAN'S WORLD By DORRIT BLECH and EVELYN RUDOFF Now that our high-school days are over, we feel that we have become women of the world. Strangely enough, our worldliness is not all due to booklearningg for how can anyone be considered worldly without having visited a police station or a bar, without ever having frequented a department store? Before you get the wrong impression, we will explain how these unusual experiences have contributed invaluably to our education. When Central moved to a new location curiosity overcame us and we decided to explore the neighborhood. Much to our delight we discovered that no less than half a block away was a police station. Whenever we had a free moment we would stand outside hoping to catch a glimpse of a hardened criminal 'being brought to justice. Finally, we got up enough courage to venture into that fearful building. As we entered, the desk sergeant covered his curiosity with a stern look. UWhat are you doing here?,' he asked. We had to think fast for a plausible excuse why two innocent looking young girls should be in a police station. M-m-may xi-we t-talk to the d-detec- tives? We were glad to see that our courage had not left us. Suddenly, the expression on the face of the desk sergeant changed from one of sterness to that of us to the oiiice of the detectives. We must admit quiet amusement. O ,Z ? l j 9 los all' Ni f' 95 4 1 f 1. 1 - 1 cfm ,Qs '- 7.1 c sag N c,!

' , w Now was the time to organize our story. We figured that the most decent type of person the- sides a policemanl to have business in a police station was a reporter. Cleverly assuming the guise of reporters, we approached a very pleasant look- ing man and told him that we wished to speak to the detectives. Imagine our relief, when we found that this pleasant looking man was the detective. Immediately, the fearful images in our minds were dispelled. We proceeded to tell him who we were and he obliged us by answering our questions and telling us that the life of a detective is not as glamorous as it is depicted on television. We were completely disillusioned. After the novelty of the police station had worn off we resumed our explora- tions. Not far from the police station was a nice respectable bar. Never having been in a bar, we decided to take advantage of this opportunity. The bar was dimly lit. Nonchalantly we walked up to the counter and gave our order. The bartender eyed us suspiciously, but nonetheless, set our drinks on the counter. Maybe it was just the atmosphere but it was the best milk we ever tasted. Another one of our favorite hangouts was Macy's. Here our economics course really came in handy. Now we could see the advantages of a large scale department store over 'a small one. In lVIacy's we could shop unmolested without any money in our pockets. In a large store we give the appear- ance of prospective customers, and walk around the store, inspecting the merchandise. While trying on a ridiculous looking hat we noticed a crowd surrounding a booth. This no doubt meant a special sale. One of our weaknesses was bargains. Excitedly we rushed over to the counter and were stunned, for that salesman was some bargain! We stood around gaping at this handsome young salesman. Finally, we were able to tear our eyes from him and focused our attention on the product he was selling. 63 What a letdown to see him sell eye glass cleaner, but we were willing to buy anything from him. We must have made him feel a little self conscious as we watched him demonstrate his product, for he began to falter in his salestalk. Reluctantly we took our leave, for it was time to go back to school. We wanted an excuse to return to Macyls without appearing conspicuous. Finally, we hit upon a scheme. We returned to the store two hours later with our pockets stuffed with eye glasses. With great anticipation we rushed over to the counter and emptied our pockets. We looked up and much to our disgust in place of our Adonis was a short, bald, middle-aged man. We stood around in agony while he proceeded to clean all those eye glasses. Even after all his work, his product did not impress us. It was no bargain. Viciously he eyed us as we took our leave. We returned the clean eye glasses to the puzzled but satisfied girls. Now that we have attained the maturity which comes with being sober seniors, we look back on our many adventures with amusement, realizing that these experiences were an integral part of our education. T 'was the day before Tuesday, a blizzard was blizzin, When 300 inmates entered Central's prison. And all of a sudden, there arose quite a clatter, We ran up the stwirs to see what was the matter. The news spread like wildjire, not a single soul tarried, To broadcast the news that Bassell would be married. But behind all the smiles we were quite enraged, Cause he hadnft even told us that he was engaged. Good evening Mr. 81 Mrs. T. A.

Debates were limited to Uptown T.A. and Brooklyn T.A. Of course inter-school debates were also taking place. That was the 1951-1952 season. The team beat U.T.A. every time, and our losses to B.T.A. were rare and far between. Then came the 1952-1953 season. Something happened to the team. Our first debate of the season with U.T.A. We lost. The topic was, Resolved: That a system of wage and price controls should be adopted by the U.S. Government. Central had the affirmative and U.T.A. presented the negative arguments. Sylvia Liss was Central's Debating Manager. Through her efforts we managed to keep an even score all through the season, though nothing outstanding occurred. Sylvia had a hard time. The team was composed largely of Freshman who, until that year, had absolutely no debating experience whatsoever. Then came the 1953-1954 season. The new manager was Dorrit Blech. Dorrit was, and still is a girl with determination. She started work with the team. Regular weekly meetings were instituted. Debating tryouts were long and exacting. Dorrit realized that the team lacked experience and know-how. She arranged for a member of the Yeshiva University Debating Team to attend all meetings and to coach the girls. Yeshiva sent Joseph Kaplan, a sophomore at the time. Joe immediately instituted a vigorous training program. One week he lectured the team members on debating technique. The next week, certain appointed girls held an intra-team debate, attempting to apply the pointers that they had learned. When all of the debaters were seated ,loe rose and gave a detailed critique on each speaker. Each girl came to know her individual faults and slip-ups. This process was repeated several times. That year eight debates were held. Central won live and lost only three. By the time May arrived our reputation as a capable team was established. Because of this, we managed to make history, by being allowed to hold a debate at Yeshiva University. The debate was with U.T.A. WHAT HAPPENED? By NAOMI SIEGFRIED One clear Spring morning, May 13, 1954- to be exact, most people unconcernedly went about their routine affairs unaware that what is now Yeshiva history was then a matter of current importance. Early that clear Spring day, three intrepid members of Central's promising debating team were standing in the fourth car of the B.M.T. subway bound for Washington Heights. The three debaters, Dorrit Blech, Naomi Siegfried and Naomi Roitman, were chewing gum, comparing notes and feeling very confident. Hours later, the three were seated in a candy store enjoying ice cream sodas. What had transpired during the interval? After reaching the majestic Yeshiva building, the girls came to the auditorium to make a few hurried last minute changes in their speeches. They were now just a bit nervous .... A few minutes later, after the student audience was seated, the debate was ollicially begun. Suddenly it was over, and the hushed audience waited expectantly for the decision of those members of the faculty who were to judge the debate. In the next few minutes, the three Central Juniors had made Yeshiva history. This was the first time a Central team had ventured uptown to debate and had been victorious by a unanimous decision of the judges. Thus, still later, on that same clear May day, many passengers on the downtown train had occasion to wonder what could possibly have put such a triumphant look upon the jubilant faces of three high school girls whose cheerfulness was matched only by the sunshine of the day. There is no doubt that Joseph Kaplan's patient persistence was largely respon- sible for that victorious debating season. He not only taught the girls debating technique but also encouraged them constantly and brought out in each girl, the most important trait of all to a debater-self confidence. When 19541 arrived, the team hoped that their coach would continue to work with them. Dorrit Blech was once more elected Debating Manager. The school was very satisfied with her able management of the past year. Miriam Resnikoff was appointed secretary of the team. Joe stayed on to instruct the girls. After two weeks of tryouts, six new members were added to the team. This year, one debate has been held. The topic was, uResolved: That Communist China should be admitted to the United Nations. Central took the negative arguments and won once more. Debaters were: Naomi Roitman, First Speaker, Phyllis Lauer, Second Speakerg Gloria Wallen, Rebuttal. Because of a late start there have been no other debates as yet. Dorrit has several debates scheduled for the near future. Plans are being made to extend our activities to debates with public high schools as well as Yeshiva high schools. . .4 BASKETBALL Front Row-Left to right--Ruth Hartman, Ann Billet, Harriet Zellinger, Debby Riback-Athletic Manager, Frances Gold, Florence Alter, Debby Levrant Back Row-Left to right-Myrna Steinberg, Ruth Tager, Barbara Schwartz, Braha Marcus, Leah Trenk Basketball has not always held its rightful status in Central. When looking back upon the history of the team, one can see marked progress in its accomplish- ments. During the 1951-1952 seasons, Honey Seelenfreund was the Athletic Manager of the school. During that time, two games were played, and both were with Ramaz. Central won one game in December, and lost the other, in February. The year passed, and Central didn't exactly feel up to bragging about herself to the world of sports. Then came a revolution. Debby Riback was elected Athletic Manager for the 1952-1953 seasons. Debby took the team in hand, and produced an end result, which we shall not soon forget. Five games were played during that year. On December 15, 1952, we lost to Bentley High, with the close score of 25-22. On December 22, 1952, we beat Flatbush Yeshiva, 23-5. On January 3, 1953, we won a game with Central Alumnae. The score was 36-28. January 10, 1953, was the date of a second game with Flatbush Yeshiva, which we won with a score of 36-16. Our third game with Flatbush that year was also a victory for Central. The score was 28-18. When the 1953-1954 basketball season arrived, we realized that our team was getting up in the world. Our reputation warranted playing with well established teams of other schools. We played ten games that year. On November 16, 1955, we won a game with Lexington School For The Deaf. The score was 33-29. On November 2-1, 1953, we lost to Flatbush Yeshiva with a score of 31-26. Central played Brooklyn Friends 9 High School, December 9, 1953, and lost, 32-24. Our next game was with Flatbush once more. This time we won, 19-12. We lost to Ramaz, on January 17, 1954, with a close score of 25-24. On January 22, 1954, we played against Dalton. They won, 88-26. Bentley High School was our next opponent, on March 1, 1954. The outcome of this game was a tie, 22-22. We tried Flatbush next, and beat them once again, with a score of 40-29. This was on March 2, 1954. Our team played on March 3rd, also, against Midwood High. This time we lost, 26-21. On March 16th, 1954, we played Flatbush Yeshiva and won 31-26. Our confidence in Debby Riback was evidenced by her election to the post of Athletic Manager for the 3rd consecutive year. The team has played 8 games this year, 1954-1955. On November 29, 1954, we lost to City College. The score was 11-4. Of course, we would have liked to win this one, but the very fact that a college team was willing to compete with us was a victory in itself.

Because we leave behind a gaping hole, An empty seat. Not only this do we leave behind, But a memory, a shadow of years gone by, A tinkling laugh, an echoing voice, A lonely sigh. We leave now, new horizons to seek, A new world beckons to our call. We Stop to think, do we want to leave? Not at all. We turn our heads to gaze at the walls, An aching heart, a tear in our eye. We will return, though not to learn, Goodbye. A wistful smile, a grateful heart, A thank-you note with emotions signed. To Central, all these things We leave behind.
