Jason Jacobowitz Found: the middle member of tlic unhnly three. Jase takes most of the credit for himself as having indoctrinated the musketeers into the uncoveted business staff of Masmid. In T. A. lase met up and hooked up with the Babe, and then they met up with Sam and adopted the company onto their business cognomen. Also a Mathematics major, Jason would like to do research in that field. Unlike Babe, he pre- fers the field; and unlike Sam, he just wants to do research, not take courses. He intends to enter the rabbinate and take over a svnagogue, lartrer than the West Side Institutional. Milton Kain Miltie, a Bron. baby, went to Israel before he was out of his diapers, and got wise and moved to Brooklyn after his re- turn. He graduated the Lubavitcher Yeshiva, as valedic- torian no less, and then transferred to Chaim Berlin for a change of atmosphere. A Political Science major, his main interest happens to be politics. Having learned to be articu- late, he claims to have been the founder of the anti-open- class-night movement in his sophomore year. Incidentally, that was the year that he represented the model Yeshiva in the model U.N. He intends to get Smicha, open or closed, and then study comparative jurisprudence with an open mind. His case is not closed. Norman Katz Norman is one of those back-to-nature boys who continu- ally change their environs until ultimately they reside in a perfectly disdlled atmosphere. He moved from Torah Vo- daath to T. A., but this failed to satisfy him. He also moved from Williamsburg to stratospheric Connecticut, where he learned that where there ' s a Will there ' s a way. An ear- nest student, he was high school valedictorian and received the Junior Math Award at Yeshiva College. In spite of his scholastic achievements, he ' s still one of those nice guys whom everybody likes. His one and only love is Math, which he intends to take up in graduate school. His plans also call for the rabbinate.

Siinoii Fl -il T lriii Shimmy, ihe Hrst Student ( ' ouncil president who initiated an administration-inspired (according to ( )mmic) clean- up drive at Yeshiva, attended Ycshiva Toras Chaim, T.A. and Yeshiva College solely for the avowed purpf)sc of i,arnering a fellowship at M.I.T. And thus, he turned out to be an active S.C. prexy, working overtime for his fellow- ship. His term was one of tumultuous silence, or perhaps, more accurately, one of unheard controversy- These were his achievements (quotes are from Commie). A quiet ort of character who claims to speak up and stand upright (because of equal pressure on all sides), his interests, among other things, run the whole gamut from mathematics and algebra to geometry and mathematics. Theoretically, he intends to became an applied mathematician. Marvin Her•ihlio sitz MARVelous Marv has probably made more headlines in Commentator, page three, than any other man in Yeshiva College history. For industrious and modest Marv has broken all basketball records at Y ' .U. He came to us after one year at C.C.N.Y ' . Upon joining our basketlxiU team, he immediately rose to stardom, and was chosen by radio station WMGM, with the help of the Y ' eshiva students, for the All-City team. In his senior year, he broke the all-time college record by scoring forty-one points in one game. That performance was immediately followed in the next games by scores of thirty-nine and thirty-eight points. Marv attributes this success to Mr. Adler and Psychology. He hopes to enter the field of industrial psvcholog%-.

H;il»l»i Jerome Kej.srnan Judah, scion of a reputed Chassidic family, is a distinguished gentleman, whose first love was Talmud. Specializing in philosophy with the saint, he was dubbed the spirit by his admirer. Possessed by a saintly spirit, this spiritual saint also took Latin, receiving the appellation THE rabbi at the hands and feet of his Chassidim. He didn ' t take Greek, for he claimed that Latin was Greek to him. His ambitions are threefold: to convert Jews to Judaism, to e.xplain to ' ieshiva boys their purpose in staying at the Yeshiva, and to find a clean table. He ' ll undoubtedly live up to his rep- utation. Leon Martin Kestenbaum The better half of Flathush ' s hoo tch twins, at least the taller, is Kay. Leon came to us from the Yeshiva of Flat- bush before it became greater, and from R. J. J. 1 bus cum- init he suicide and thus he himself cum to be greater. In case you didn ' t know it, he graduated from T. I. with a cum laude, no less. Once soph vice-president and junior president, he culminated his political achievements as lower senior president. He became feature editor of The Com- mentator, but was fired and appointed news editor because he thought that he himself was the feature attraction; and others thought that this picture wasn ' t basic enough. Kesty ' s ambitions include the rabbinate and working doNxn in Brooklyn.
