i:iAV iii%ioi v Our last year in College was like a fairy tale, and just as everyone in a fairy tale is allowed one wish to come true, so were the men of ' 47 allowed one wish. Louis Bernstein, Joe Appleman, Red Feuerstein and Maurice Aranov chose and got the G.B. ' ship of Com- mentator . . . and Dean Isaacs got a headache. ... Of course, the headache wasn ' t these fellows ' idea, but only the result of their becoming members of the G.B. of Commie. . . . Manny Greenwald and Leo Sutton wished for trouble and were given the reins of Masmid instead. . . . The funny part about it was that they seemed satisfied, and didn ' t realize that a switch was pulled on them. . . . fHaskell Hollander wished to get out of the Army and join up Yeshiva. That also came true. . . . Stanley Kessler came back from the wars only to meet his Waterloo in Lincoln, Nebraska. . . . Alvin Reines became chief schizo- phrenic of the psychology class. . . . Wally Spielman wanted to major in history, so he was allowed to fol- low the history of the ill-fated basketball team from his position as Athletic Manager. . . . Arnold Singer- man laughed at what everybody else wished ... All he wanted, he said, was someone to look after him ... his wish came true when he was put into Rabbi Llphichitz ' s class. . . . Shoulson was elected Vice-pres. of the Anti-Smoking League of the Bo!s Medrash. . , , Josh Epstein finally got to be President ... of the Dov Revel. . . . Avrohom Rappaport and Joe Mandelkom took an advanced course in plunnbing with Dean Isaacs. . . . Martin Lieber and Milton Matz settled down and raised a family ... of white mice . . . Mark Fraenkel was voted Most Likely to Wear a Homburg one year after Graduation . . . Meyer Blech got his wish ... to graduate . . . Charles Spirn carried the torch that lit the way for Le Flambeau. . . . Irving Wiesel and his moustache received en award for most efficient. ... As chairman of the Clearing House committee, he saw to that no more than three ac- tivities took place on the same night at the same time in the same place . . . quite efficient. . . . Klein and Fredman mingled with some of the best names in society. . . . (Klein met them in want ads.) . . . Berko- witz and Fredman opened an establishment for trans- ients in their dorm room. . . . Feuerstein won Rabbi Lessin ' s award for Minyan attendance . . . that year. There were other wonderful occasions in that Senior year. The first annual Senior-Faculty mixer. A flo -ing l)H.

DR. PHILIP KRAUS Associate Professor of Education D. BLOCK Assistant in Mathematics DR. KARL ADLER Lecturer in Music H EMANUEL RACKMAN Lecturer in Political Scivnc CLASS HISTORY History course has too much of Britain in it. . . . Wally Spielman refused to change ponies for hloraces in the midstream of Prof. Floch ' s lectures. . . . Manny Green- wald taught Prof. Floch all about the elections, Alaska, South Africa and various other far-fetched places. This was the year of the gang war that made Al Capone and his mob look sick in comparison. It all started when Mark Frankel tried to move in on Sol Shoulson ' s new racket . . . the Baby-Sitter ' s Protective Ass ' n. Peace was finally established when they divided up the city according to the number of children with children taking all mothers with an even number of children, and Frankel taking all mothers with odd children . . . Siamese twins, and babys with two heads were divided up equally. That June most of us were asked to act as ushers at the graduation of the Class of ' 46, to get used to the ordeal we were told. They were right too, it was a sobering ordeal. The strongest beverage they served was coffee, but it tasted like embalming fluid, that It was. The Dean put it in our coffee to make sure that we would keep during the warm weather. Seymour Katz was given too large a dose and so looked like a mummy for the rest of the year. That helped him to land a job ghosting an article on Der Yeshiva Held in the Morning Journal, and so we were preserved for our SENIOR YEAR Well, it finally happened. What we had been afraid of for four years. Some attributed it to the after effects of the coffee. Others called it a revenge neurosis. At any rate we elected Ralph Berkowltz president, and Alvin Schlff vice-president of the Senior class. Berkowltz had to be promised that no class or student council meetings would be held on Thursday nights . . . the nights when Gimbel ' s was open till 9 o ' clock. . . . The Class of ' 47 combined with the rest of the school in an attitude of the devil may care and elected Student Council Officers. Earl Hollywood Klein became chief executive, Marvin Peoria Friedman got Truman ' s old job, and Mendel Brooklyn FIsch, after spending three years learning to swim was floated into the secretary-treasurer office on the first wave. ... It looked like the school was slowly going to the Fisch . . . especially when Flsch absented himself from S. C. Meetings. Tu ' cnty-six
