Just a little more time and we'll reach that peak. So it's all worth it and we wouldn't have missed it for the world. There was so much we had to go through . . .French re- gents. It's hard to believe that we knew as much French when we came out as we did when we started the course. Marshal was right. We spoke French like Spanish cows and knew even less. Spanish regents, Across the Pyrenees we have the Span- ish students. But, we can't discuss them because it's a very touchy subject for Mr. Fohr. Third year Math regents. Spin, Paley. Kaufman. They all helped us along a little. So did the girl sitting next to you. And there was Sten. We heard stories and stories and more stories. Mrs. Beck. Her attempts at grooming us to be charming young ladies failed, but don't worry girls -we're all potential Queen Esthers. This was the course that taught us all about continuity, angularity, and readability. Show us a girl who can do all three and we'll show you a chem student. Chemistry, The elective that not too many of us wanted to experiment with. There must have been something to that course, though, when an entire class comes out of regents with marks like those. Or was it the cazuive. We love you, Mr. Cheney. But we remember the good things, too. Mr. Kaufman was the host with the most-gave us par- ties all term long. Then there was the day he helped stop the rumble outside in the street. Our hero. Now, don'l get us wrong. He did teach us some math. Mr. Hoffman. We had a brief encounter with him and then he got sick on us. And so we were introduced to Mr. Lubetsky, And Mr. Lubetsky's voice. Man--could his voice carry. ln the little time we spent with him we had a test, and one of us had the opportunity to visit with our dear principal, Yes, we remember Mr. Lubet- sky. We were glad we didn't have to live with him. Well. most ofus that is. jest a minute! Best of all we remember Miss Silver. Zero hour. It's funny but you felt pretty bad when you didn't get one. Congratulations to our 44 year-old English teacher on the occasion ofhis parents' 43 rd wedding anniversary. Our junior weekend, Ourjunior weekend? Ourjunior weekend was going to be in Seagate but somehow the idea got all washed up. We won again. This time it was our competitive' assem- bly and our victory was understandable. Thats more than we can say for the play. We saw history being made. Twice we experienced brutal assassinations oftwo great men. RFK and Martin Luther King. Each time a widow was left to care for a fatherless family. And each time we felt their sorrow. It hurt us, too. We went through a lot that year, and realized that we must be growing up. And we were, That's being ajunior.
