AL SOKOLOW Brooklyn, N. Y. A budding English Lit. professor, so he says, Al came to Yeshlva after exploring the lake districts of Colchester, Conn. A T.A. grad- uate, Al joined every organization In school, including the Culbertson Brigade. He finally settled down as the efficient manager of our expanding Co-op. Among his friends he numbers particularly Rhoda, Sylvia, Judy, Rita and Beverly (at this counting). THEODORE STEINBERG New Brilain, Conn. Ted has finally vindicated his stay In college by being an A student in statistics. This New Englander discovered that Yeshlva exerts Its Influence even In the Middle East and he returned from Lebanon to finish his college course. Ted was president of the Soph Class and circulation manager of Commie. He majored In English, minored In Bio and may yet be a statistical rabbi or a rabbinical statistician (In Israel, he hopes.) MURRAY TOBIAS Queens, N. Y. This veteran of Rabbi Jacob Joseph attends the Yeshlva In the morning and majors In Philosophy In the afternoon. He lives in Ja- maica, where he reads the Torah every Saturday morning, but during the week he sleeps In the Dorm. His goal Is the Rabbinate, and, in- cidentally, Professor LItman is a neighbor of his. MORRIS TWERSKY Boston, Mass. Although Twerp is short on height, he Is long on depth. His Gestaltic views on Zionism have caused him much grief at the hands of the Assoclationlsts, but a devoted and loyal Betar he is and ex- pects to remain. This Boston bred son of a famous rabbinical family has seen service on the Student Council as vice-president of the Soph Class and participated In other student activities. One of Yukle ' s pet math students and occupying a front seat In Rabbi Paleyeff ' s shiur, Molshe has a double future before him — to be ordained at Yeshlva and do graduate work In math, and then, if not sooner, to Israel.

CY SHAVRICK Baltimore, Md. Cy Pretty Boy Ronny Shavrick, though he doesn ' t particularly care for fishing is very versatile in using a line. But there are no strings attached when we say that Cy is one of the most dependable and honest fellows in this school. He probably is the only individual who can boast of the distinction of never having an argument with any of the fellows. As president of the Senior class and Business Manager of Masmid, Cy did extraordinary work. This Philosophy major from Baltimore wants to do some welfare work in Europe and study for the rabbinate. NAHUM B. SHULMAN Jersey City, N. J. Nahum is one of our few synthetic boys. A philosophy major, inter- ested in Psychology and Jewish Education, Nahum wants to continue learning in the Yeshiva. Spreading his activities over both institutions, he is president of his Yeshiva class, member of the Zionist Actions Committee (food drive) and responsible for our rings and keys. He expects to learn till Smicha, whereupon he will leave for Aretz to spread Torah. EL IHU SIMON Bronx, N. Y. Chiel is known for his wavy hair and his friendliness, if you don ' t insult his hair. A 1 . A! graduate, he has majored in sociology and minored on the varsity basketball team and in the bookstore. He did a good job with the bookstore this year — sold some books. He ex- pects to graduate T.I. with college and hopes to attend graduate school and eventually teach Physical Ed. and or Hebrew in a sec- ondary school. SAMUEL SKLAR Bronx, N. Y. Co.v down, you peasants! Down, I say! For the versatile Sammy has achieved the ultimate. He is the radiant owner of a shiiiy new Ford!

GEORGE WOLF New York, N. Y. George, the older of +he Wolf brothers, is a complete product of Yeshlva University. He attended Talmudical Academy and is a grad- uate of Teachers Institute where he won the Bible and hHebrew Liter- ature prizes. Studious and diligent, he is a Sociology major but ex- pects to continue in the educational field. MORRIS WOLF New York, N. Y. Morris, the younger of the Wolves, is like a parallel to his brother George. Also a graduate of T.A., he expects to graduate from the Teachers Institute in June together with College. Studious and dili- gent, he is a Sociology major, but expects, in time, to go into the Educational field. JOSEPH J. YOSHOR Brooklyn, N. Y. Senor Yoshor, who studied for two summers in Mexico, has come a long way from New Hampshire, where he was born. He attended T.A. and became immersed in its politics. He wrote three plays for Yeshiva College Dramatics and is Managing Editor of Commie. A very deliberate and fluent speaker, Joe is a member of the Debating Team. He is also Treasurer of the Placement Service. At present, Joe resides in good old Brooklyn which has nothing at all to do with the fact that he is an English major. x SEYMOUR ZAHN Brooklyn, N. Y. Zeke ' s experience in the International Relations Society taught him that it ' s really a pity that he has no relations among the Roshe Haye- shiva, such as Rabbi Lifshitz. This aspirant to the Rabbinate is a Zionist among Agudists, and an Agudist among Zionists, a Williams- burger among Heightsers, and vice versa. He is an old admirer of Dr. Jung, and a student of the history of the Middle Ages.
