After the advent of Avrum the inslitulioii was to be known as big, strict college where the concept of We ' re college men. We are trustworthy during examinations was prevalent.

It is during the four vear reign of our blessed class ihal the famous historian Josephus Al Enbcrgi wrote the best seller St. Ipend. the Influence and the Works. The later historian Herman B. Groan.stone attempted a revision with the accent on Works. These were the years of dramatic political events — the Kellerian Kevolution. the Kurtzmanian Counter-revolution, the Administration Revelation, the Student Revulsion. These are the stage settings — here is the background: and now — ring up the curtain. Folly Mr. Mandelbaum is still a good boy. He teaches and studies Hebrew and English — it looks like he ' s here to stay. Tf I have to stamp my foot on the floor the very next time — it ' ll be your fault. Babe Lobel doesn ' t take off his five-inch brim hat. Who closed the lights? Mandelbaum rips off Y ' armilke — half for student and half for teacher. Ah. they cleaned the windows.

Damon and Lamm hum up and down the scales — no talent scouts present. Frednian. Davidman and Dryspiel align themselves with the Y ' eshiva Hopsters. Every freshman class for the past five vears boasts of contributing Artie Stein to team. Aaron Mann remains undiscovered talent. Ruby Davidman has a bu-bu. Dryspiel does his famous imitation of Abrams. Entering s tudents who hear Abraius for first time accuse him of poorly imitating Drvspiel.
