Nathan Kricger The most amazing fact about the co aptain of this year ' s basketball varsity is that he has been able to apply mathe- matics to basketball and basketball to mathematics. Bf rn in Brooklyn, where he has lived all his life, Natie attended Y ' eshiva Toras Chaim and then transferred to T. A. There his basketball career was inaugurated. Since it has been much the center of his existence, it has been rumored that he even plays it in his Sunday School classes. Naturally, he has coached basketball, worked in summer camps, and played varsity ball for four years, . fter attending graduate school and visiting Israel, he hopes to teach mathematics, and coach basketball. .lacol) S. Kriiinliein Jake received his earK education in ' cshixos Ketanos, and when har-mitzvahed became the thirteeiuh member of the first class of Brooklyn T. . . Silent Selig will always be re- membered by all of the graduates as a walking Parnassus. When he is not studying — novels that is — he can be seen discovering, uncovering, and undercovering the news for The Commentator. At Y ' eshiva, Y ' aakov took a liking to Yukie and recreation. It is said that he once did an extra assignment, thus his first break with Commie. One thing is sure, he will live happily ever after.

Saul H. Klaiisner Saul H. (it is said the midtUe initial stands tor Hazan) was born in l rookUn. An extensive tour ot Mumpe n the early V ii) ' s brought him to Israel for four years. He attended Torah Vodaath when he returned to Brooklyn, and forgot any Hebrew he might have picked up in Israel. Already inculcated by Torah Vodaath he studied at R. I. H. T. S. tor two years on arriving at Yeshiva University. Now he is trying to regain his knowledge of Hebrew which he so re- gretfully forgot, in T. I. A major in Philosophy, it can be trtily said of him that he is one of the few Philosophy ma- jors who ever philosophizes. He was a member oi the choral group at Y. U. He aspires to become a lamdan and a cantor. Isidore Klein He was born and bred in the exciting Williamsburg atmos- phere, a fact which may account for his deeply-rooted inter- est in psychology. Having attended the Mesivta high school and for a while Brooklyn College, Izzy discovered Yeshiva and liked it. He became active in Eranos, International Re- lations Society, Choral Group, Fencing, Tennis, Psychology Club; his winning smile earned him popularity and his skill, a swimming instructorship. Either from Dr. Adler or from his Yeshiva Rebbi or Novoseller, he hit upon the idea of combining psychology with the rabbinate. From that moment on he made away with his interests, photography and club leadership, anil began to concentrate on Novoseller. Samuel Klein Sleepy-eyed Sam lives in New York City, studied at R. J. J. and at Talmudical Academy, where he joined up as the third musketeer. When you see Gelman, Jacobowitz, and Company (that company is Sam), prancing through Ye- shiva ' s golden halls, you know they mean business. Sam does all the technical work for the trio. All three are Math majors and took identical courses in their first three years at college. However, Sam shocked the world when he went off on a tangent, and continued with Advanced Calculus. When not soliciting ads and formulas, he directs youth activities and is a member of Hapoel Hamizrachi. He hopes to graduate with the coveted B. A.-be degree and then enter the rabbinate and community administration.

Alirahani Kiipoliick Red is .1 Bronxite, therefore ambitious, therefore immersed in Cantorial gymnastics with a shrewd, discerning eye lor the future. Simuhaneously, he pursues ment,il .icrohatics .u the Beth Hamedrash, and on top of that, cahsthcnics with weights, balls, and gloves in the gym. How all these Hercu- Ictics coincide with his field of concentration, Ckeek, is Cireck to us. But that should not be confusing; Abe is one of those complex individuals who know exactly what they are after, and in his case, it isn ' t peanuts. The chances are he will end up on the pulpit — speaking, insteatl ol singing — to the audience. If the folks will listen, he will stick to oral :.thletics. Alvin Irving Liebernian Hailing from Flatbush, Al can rarely be seen without the company of his Kounterpart. When he reached Yeshiva from Yeshiva de Flatbush he decided to major in philoso- phy and in Hutchylus. He thinks Henry Hudson should be credited with the discovery of the latter fascinating subject. After being bitten by the T.l. bug, he was cured by five doses of Bechinis Gemerine. His complete cure is being affected in the downstairs clinic where he finds himself a paperweight among heavyweights. His future plans in- clude improving on his T.I. cum laude diploma by going to Columbia Teachers College and then, strangely enough, a career in Education. Jerome Lipsitz There is a saying that still waters run deep. Just how deep saturnine Jerry runs, no one knows. He is an optimist of the highest sort every spring, but slowly loses his gaiety and lightheadedness as the summer months wane. A Chi- cago man from ' way back, he realized the nasty connota- tions of the Windy City and came to Yeshiva by way of Mesifta Tifereth Jerusalem. He found time to be on the circulation staff of The Commentator in his freshman year, whence he proceeded to the Clearing House Committee and the managership of the tennis team. His plans for the future include Smicha and a master ' s degree in Commu- nity Service.
