Kabbi 'David Z^ Wemback,
Mi^i^lstrator
We live in a burgeoning, complex, prob-
iematical world.
Fleetingly our lives pass, and struggling
we strive to build up a meaningful reality
out of an inner and outer chaos.
If life is a mystery and a puzzle, then it
is one whose solution is further compli-
cated by a firmly set time limit, for life
advances inexorably.
We believe, as Jews and as human beings,
that this challenge of life can and must
be met.
Though beset by problems all the days of
our lives, we believe that, given enough
strength and determination, we will be
able to set our sights on one final goal and
work steadily towards its fulfillment.
It is this challenge that makes life
worth-while and ignoring it can only mean
disaster.
All decisions must reflect the pattern of a
greater decision; that decision which a
person has made as to how he will live
his life.
I'str.-.-.-^
"53 Z.'
Living is an art and an individual can be
said to be truly creative only when he
has taken the "Tohoo Vavohoo" that sur-
rounds him and has transformed it into
something both significant and substan-
tial; something that transcends the petti-
ness of the individual existence.
It is not an easy task, for the road is
fraught with pitfalls.

be far and he who thinks himself far may
nonetheless be closer than he can realize,
for the same destiny may be reached by
many different paths.

Then, too, in the choice of goals, there is
such diversity as to make the individual's
choice all the more bewildering.

We, the graduates of YUHS, Class of '68,
believe that we have been set along the
path that leads through life's maze.

more and more our separate ways; yet to
stop or to stray too far from the main path
is to let the world, or at least our portion
of it, lapse into chaos.
re may not ao so, tor we nave a grave
responsibility to ourselves, to others, and
to Him Who is above all goals.

Possessing a unique dedication to the task of educating Jewish
youth in a modern world, he has earned the esteem of all those who
have come to know him. Exhibiting a genuine concern towards each
and every student, he has been tireless in his efforts to foster a love
and a reverance of Torah and its ideals. He has been more than a
teacher, he has been a leader who inspires through example, and in-
structs through understanding. It is with deep admiration and appre-
ciation that the Class of '68 dedicates this year's Elchanite to Rabbi
Moshe Rapps.

Komi^n B. Abrams,
m& Director, RIETS
You are unique in that all of your four years of schooling have
been spent here during the so-called space age. In that time you have
joined in cheering man's successes in the realm of the unknown. You
have also been disappointed at times, by his failures.
While this age of space and the exploration of the unknown have
generated excitement and unprecedented interest on your part, it is
imperative that you recognize the responsibilities that this new era
imposes upon you.
We live now in a world divided — divided geometrically into two
opposite ideological camps, with intense, almost mortal, strife between
them, and engulfing all nations, great and small, threatening us with
fatal annihilation.
We Jews, in particular, are in the very midst of this struggle, and,
unfortunately, we find ourselves in both camps. Diaspora saw to
that. Because we are scattered all over the world, in all lands, we are
ever engaged in fight — brother against brother.
The Jew, at best, has found from age-long experience that, even
in peace, he can survive only in a democratic world where liberty,
freedom, and tolerance are the rule.
We of the present generation have failed to make the world "safe
for democracy."
It must, therefore, be your duty and aim, in the years ahead, to
remember all that you have learned here; you must carry these teach-
ings into the new "world" you are about to explore. Whether or not
you enter the rabbinate in later life, you must carry from this institu-
tion of Torah, a message of faith to all men. It is your future.- but you
must never lose sight of your responsibilities.
You have performed well and we are very proud of your achieve-
ment. We hope that you will re-visit your Alma Mater as often as
possible.
14
Congratulations and best wishes upon the successful completion
of your secondary school education.
During your stay with us, we have tried to impress upon you the
importance and value of a Torah education as well as provide for you
the best possible secular education. It is our hope that this harmon-
ious fusion of Torah and secular learning is deeply rooted and will
bear fruit in a generation which will be devoted to the concepts, teach-
ings, traditions, and ideals of our priceless heritage.
May you all continue to be a source of pride and joy to your par-
ents and to your Alma Mater.

... an individual can be said to be truly
creative only vt/hen he has taken the
'Tohoo Vavohoo" that surrounds him and
has transformed it into something both
significant and substantial
Step off the black yellow brick road
And lie down in the grass,
Look into the sun,
And rest your weary bones.
Weep for the fire never lit,
And love that wasn't really,
Swirl in the maelstrom of your dreams,
And rest your weary bones.
Don't envy the cricket's singing,
r the grasshopper's endless bounds,-
They too will lie in the ground
To rest their weary bones.
Bathe in the sun's golden kindness,
And in the earth's fragrant carpet.
Not again will you take the road;
You'll just rest your weary bones.

VICTORY
Thrust for thrust
Counter for counter
Resolve your best
Charge them asunder
Clash and clamor
Of the ululating mortar
A breach, a break
Show them your valor
Strike swift and awesome
Thou, agent of slaughter
For soon it be yours
And then it be over
Realize the impossible
Consummate that fervor
Fulfill that quest
Culminate that horror.
Fail them not
Lad of ideals
Devastatingly swift
Oh valiant soldier
But once through the dark
And out of the thunder
Re-enter the darkness
Re-enter the thunder.
Gaze long about thee
And behold thy splendor
What hast thou wrought?
What didst thou disember?
Was your victory true
Was your victory blunder?
Look hard to its meaning
Decipher its core.
Thrust for thrust
Counter for counter
Resolve your best
And again charge asunder

Life is an experience which is puzzlesome
Each person marches through it to the sound of beating drums
How can so many people march to different time
When there is one drummer to keep time for mankind
The answer to this puzzle must then therefore be
Each person hears the drummer but hears him differently
The rhythm of the drummer can be made slow or fast
To suit each person's temperament Until the very last.

Each man, a small stream feeding a river,
Each river, the sum of all streams that together flow
To the sea; the sum of their petty goals.

They, bits of the "whole."

ON BEING A REALIST
Why by proxy should one choose
To live one's youth or age.
When Death by proxy is a thing
In which we don't engage
Our dreams, they are the part of us
Where-on we never trod.
Our lives are what belong to us . . .
Our dreams belong to God.

HOME OF THE BRAVE
Great Issues in Yeshiva History
A play based on the true experiences of one
hundred thirty-seven unfortunates trapped under a
green dome for four torturous years.
Scene /
September, 1964. One hundred eighy unsuspect-
ing souls fearfully set foot into a medieval gothic
structure marked by a large green observatory.
Enter two freshmen.
Freshy I: You sure it was 186th and Amsterdam —
this looks like a monastery.
Senior (knocking the two freshmen over): Out of my
way, I got Big Dee.
Freshy II: I hope it's not serious.
Senior (over his shoulder): Don't worry, you'll learn.
(Freshies pick themselves up and stumble up the
steps. They bump into a man with a cigarette in one
hand and a sword in the other.)
Freshy II: Excuse me, you look like a friendly soul.
Where can we find Yeshiva University High
School?
Man: Do you know who I am?
Freshy I: No, who are you?
Man: Go wait outside my office. You are suspended
indefinitely for three days and if I don't see
your father, mother, and both your parents by
Sunday, I will call them up tonight.
Freshy II: B . . . B . . . But sir, you don't even know
our names.
Man: I will see you tomorrow. Meanwhile, get me a
New York Times, any flavor.
(Freshmen walk away bewildered, but learning.)
Scene //
Late that day, in the dormitory.
Rabbi U.: How do you do? I'm Rabbi Urivetsky, your
dormitory counsellor.
Moishe: Oh hi! My name is Moishe and I come
from . . .
Rabbi U.: Stop right there! You poor boy, I can tell
immediately what your problems are. How you
must suffer! Tell me — how long have you
hated your mother?
Sam: But I . . .
Rabbi U.: There, there, you don't have to tell me. I
can tell just by looking at you that you're a
schizophrenic paranoid suffering from severe
decontrucion of the quantilia.
Sam: Oh my G-d!
Rabbi U.: But don't worry. After four years here, I'm
sure you'll be well-cured of whatever troubles
you. Now tell me — how long have you been
jealous of your baby sister? And your delu-
sions of grandeur aren't new, are they? Oh,
and what about your severe traumatic . . .
(They are interrupted by the senior who knocked
them over before.)
Senior: Hey, Joe, I heard you went to a Yankee
game to see the White Sox. Get it. White Sox?
Rabbi U.: Go to Yeshiva.
Senior: Say, Rabbi, what's the Hebrew homework
for tonight?
Rabbi U.; Go to Yeshiva.
Senior: By the way, did you hear about the test the
Big D is giving?
Rabbi U.: Go to Yeshiva.
106
Scene ///
A year has passed and one hundred sixty are
left. Last year's dumb freshies are now sophisticated
sophomores.
(They enter a Hebrew class.)
Rabbi Rapps: Now on this next test, there will be
four hundred thirty-two boxes on Dikduk, each
worth one three hundred and seventeenth of a
point. Now when you finish the first page,
raise your hand and I'll give you the other
twelve.
Moishe: But Rabbi Rapps, they said you were on
easy teacher and even made the tests easy
for us.
Rabbi: Wait'll you take the Hebrew Regents.
(They move onto biology.)
Mr. Kotkin: So, as I was saying, after I got back
from this year, I went on a special scientific
trip to Colorado. Did I ever tell you about the
time when . . .
Sam: Mr. Kotkin, aren't we supposed to learn bio
for the Regents?
Mr. Kotkin: Oh, thanks for reminding me. I meant
to tell you we won't be able to cover disease,
conservation, genetics, reproduction, respira-
tion, animal or plant life in class, so you'll
have to learn it by yourselves for the Regents.
Scene IV
Sophomore year — the dorm.
Senior: Hey, you guys, why don't you come to to-
night's basketball game. There'll be a lot of
Central girls there.
Sam: What's a Central girl?
(Senior faints.)
Sam: What's with him?
Moishe: I don't know. There's a strange disease
going around among the seniors. It starts with
a capital D.
Sam: How do you know?
Moishe: I keep hearing them say "I got Big Dee
and then they groan and everyone else com-
forts them.
Sam: Boy, that's terrible. I wonder what the Big
Dee stands for. I hope sophomores can't get it.
Moishe: I think a few sophomores in TA have it.
But we can't get it, we got our shots before we
came here.
107
Scene V
September 1966^-one hundred and fifty are left.
After two years in MTA the class is ready for almost
anything. Scene — an English class.
Sam: My oral report is on John Steinbeck. In his
book "The Grapes of Wrath" Steinbeck
points out very beautifully that . . .
(A loud snoring comes from the back of the
room.) Hey! Alpo fell asleep. Somebody woke him
up. Mr. Shapiro! Mr. Shapiro!
A/po: Sam, that was fine. Your audience contact
was a little poor, but you made some fine
points, so I gave you a 45. Now who's next?
I want to finish the reports by Wednesday.
(Bell rings and they go to history class.)
Mr. Aronson: Good afternoon, gentlemen. This
term we will study the history of Texas until
1 865 and next year from 1 865 to the present.
Now to begin, recite after me — "Our father,
who art in Waco . . ."
Sam: Mr. Aronson, I thought this course was Ameri-
can history!
Mr. Aronson: Well, it just goes to show how much
you have to learn. Now, please toke out paper
and get ready for a quiz.
Moishe: How can you give us a quiz? It's the first
day of the year.
Mr. Aronson (writing in rollbook): All right, if that's
the way you're going to be. Don't you know
enough not to talk during a quiz. I've just
given the whole class zeroes.
DDDD
Scene VI
The dorm — junior year.
Sam: Hey, did you get invited to Judy's sweet six-
teen?
Moishe: 'Veah, I sure did! Boy, I can't wait to go to
my first sweet sixteen. They must really be
great.
(Rabbi walks in.)
Rabbi: What's this I hear about going to a sweet
sixteen?
Sam: Oh, Moishe and I were just invited to a Cen-
tral girl's party. I think it's great because this
way we can get to meet all the Central girls.
Rabbi: What deep-rooted traumatic experiences
cause you to want to meet all the Central
girls? Are you so frustrated that in your para-
noic frenzy you find the need to suppress and
sublimate your desire to meet normal girls by
trying to escape reality at a Central girl's
sweet sixteen!
Sam: But Rabbi, if we don't go out with Central
girls . . .
Rabbi: Then you won't go out at all.
Sam: You mean you don't want us to have any
social life at all?
Rabbi: Exactly!
Sam: You know. Rabbi, I never noticed it before,
but you're wearing white socks.
Rabbi: Go to Yeshiva.
108
Scene VII
September 1967 — only 137 are left out of the
180 entrants. They are hardened veterans and have
waited a long time to be seniors. They intend to
take full advantage of ■their nev/ position. The scene
is a well-known English class.
Student: Why do they give us so much homework?
Rabbi D.: I must be cruel only to be kind (Hamlet,
Act II, Scene II, Line 610). What do you mean
you've never read anything by Farquard T.
Ravioli, one of the greatest East Tonzanian
writers of the twelfth century? Why a child of
two learns that in the sixth grade! Oh, it's no
use ... I quit . . . This is without a doubt the
worst class I've had in eleven years . . . Mr.
Bernstein's class always knows English. Only
my class knows nothing. Why? Why?
Tl wise-guy: Rabbi, did it ever occur to you that the
fault isn't with the students?
Rabbi D.: OUT! OUT! How dare you say that, you
stupid shm —
Class: Ah, ah, ah!
Rabbi D.: Shmiggeggy!
(The scene shifts to a Gemora class during a typical
morning session designed to make us better human
beings through a thorough understanding of the re-
ligious implications of important modern questions
which constantly bother the young man in our hec-
tic, dog-eat-dog society, such burning problems as
what happens if you over-roast the Paschal lamb,
such as the plight of impoverished Hawaiian pine-
apple pickers in light of the ban on fruit juices in
the baking of matzos, and the deep psychological
problems which may arise from the traumatic ex-
perience of finding chometz in one's home during
Passover or finding a black mouse where a white
mouse had been. The class in session.)
Sam: Rebbe, why do we have to burn the chometz
the day before Pesach if it is forbidden only
when Pesach starts?
Rebbe: Rabosai, we know these things, they're
technical mainses.
Moishe: Rebbe, could you please review yesterday's
shiur.
Rebbe: Heh, heh. What's the matter? I suppose you
went out last night instead of reviewing the
Gemora. Anyway, I'll go over the shiur for
you. At first I explained how we used to learn
so well in Poland. Then I announced the results
of the latest survey of the top ten Talmudic
scholars in the world. In a big upset this
week, only seven out of the ten were members
of my immediate family. Then I purged a few
more unfortunates. They're now recuperating
at Einstein's Medical Center and in Tijuana.
Then I . . .
Moishe: Okay, Rebbe, I get the picture. It was
another typical day. In other words, you
didn't mention the Gemora once.
(Suddenly the rebbe gets very angry, like when a
red flag is waved at a bull.)
Rebbe (smiling broadly): Tell me, heh-heh, were you
at the dorm minyan today? (Fade out.)
(Scene switches to Lamport Auditorium, where nerv-
ous seniors are given all the details about applying
for college.)
Mr. Guidance: Now, let me repeat those dates,
they're very important. Yeshiva applications
are due in five minutes. Ivy League applica-
tions were due in your sophomore year, and
the City University is closing next year. Are
there any questions?
Sam: Excuse me, sir, did you say that we could
bring our parents in at any time to talk to you?
Mr. Guidance: Certainly! Just leave a note in my
box. I'll be in my office Sundays and week-
days from nine to nine-fifteen, but I'll have to
leave a quarter of an hour earlier on week-
days, except after September tenth, when I
won't be in at all until next June. And please
remember my office is there for your use. It
must be, because I'm never there . . . You are
now being given index cards on which to indi-
cate which high school you go to and what
your opinion of the war in Vietnam is. Those
students not applying to Yeshiva also please
indicate your choice of firing-squad, hanging
or electric chair. Now all of you in the back
better stop talking or this will be your last
talent assembly of the year! (Fade out.)
Very little can be remembered of the senior year.
There was a rumor that the Elchanite might be pub-
lished, but you know how rumors are.

GIMBELS — (after hearing Fink's comment) D 3 ■'1313 Tintn ,D"'?:on
TEACHER— Tulips, Able
TULIPS — Present, yes, present, indeed.
TEACHER — Schapiro, Alpo.
ALPO — I suppose that one could say that I am present. But presence is really meaning-
less in the cosmic sense of things.
TEACHER — Silverstein, Box.
NO RESPONSE
TEACHER — Silverstein, Box.
NO RESPONSE
TEACHER — Does anyone know where Box is?
FINK — (aside) He's probably out %&$#?*'' around somewhere!
GIMBELS— i?:iy nns "'o 'aE"? 3?t
TEACHER— Baron, Blody "Red."
BLOODY "RED" — Hey, teach, do you have a light?
TEACHER— Do I have a light?
BLOODY "RED" — Do you have a light?
TEACHER— A light?
BLOODY "RED" — You know, a match.
110
\k
TEACHER — What do you want a match for?
BLOODY "RED" — I've got to smoke, it makes me look older.
JOE — If you ask me, smoking has a definite connection with weaning.When a child
is born he sucks his thumb. As he grows older and starts to go to school, he will
bite on pen, pencils, and his nails. But when he reaches the age of 18, this con-
tinuing unconscious urge may be satisfied in a socially acceptable way, by
smoking.
BLOODY "RED" — You know, Joe, you really stink.
TULIPS — Stink, yes, officious, malodorous, yes.
GiMBELS— ? D ■> N ■' a a 3 'piKii/ Dan
TEACHER — What do you mean by that, Gimbels?
GIMBELS— NT'Qin t^^'DnV 'NT
TEACHER — Are you insinuating that I cannot understand you?
GIMBELS— ]■> 3 ■> I'^Lm
TEACHER — Are you calling me stupid?
GIMBELS — If the shoe fits, wear it.
ALPO — Look, Gimbels, you stick to your Hebrew fairy tales, leave the English stuff
to me.
TEACHER — Both of you, down to the office!!!
ALPO — I don't want to go anywhere with this guy. He keeps mumbling tribal
Incantations.
TEACHER — Down to the office, and don't come back until you have seen Mr. Abrams,
(As Gimbels and Alpo leave the room. Box enters.)
TEACHER — Box, why weren't you in your box on time?
BOX— Well
TEACHER — Answer me immediately!!
TULIPS — Yes, yes, answer. Do not equivocate or prevaricate, yes, yes, elucidate.
AXELROD — A donde estuce, amigo?
BOX — Axelrod, why are you always talking like the element? What are you, a liberal
or something? I'll bet you live in an all-white neighborhood, too, so how can you
talk about those kinds of people? When they move into your neighborhood, your
estimation of them will drop, ping,- ping! ping!
TEACHER — You haven't answered my question. Box.
BOX — As a great Rebbe once said, "I cannot tell a lie." I went to the co-op to get the
Monarch notes on the Red Badge of Couroge.
(Class gasps as Box makes admission which is tantamount to academic suicide.)
TEACHER — (moving in for the kill) So you didn't read the book?
BOX— But I did, I really did!
TEACHER — Okay, Box, how many buttons did the main character have on his left
sleeve on page 175?
BOX— But, sir, I . . . I . . .
TEACHER — No mercy, Silverstein!! How would you like your Nursery School grade to
be the term ceiling for you.
CLEM — C'est tres mal.
JOE — I've noticed a definite pattern in your speech, you insist upon using French
even in instances where French is not called for.
TULIPS — Pattern, yes, prototype, precedent, archetype, yes, exemplar.
Ill
JOE — It seems. . . .
BLOODY "RED" — Doesn't anyone have a match?
JOE — . . . to me that. . . .
AXLEROD — Yo tengo un.
BOX — There you go again, Axlerod. Are you a pinko or something? Wait till they
move into your neighborhood and the property value starts to drop.
JOE — . . . Clem is trying to make up for some weakness or insufficiency in his psyche
by using the language of I'amour.
CLEM — Oh, you silly, silly, boy.
TULIPS — Yes, silly, yes, idiotic, it's so true in life, yes, fatuous.
FINK — You knov/. Able, you are the biggest °/o"$#*?&4^ I have ever met.
TULIPS — That's it. You laugh! You'll laugh till it is time for the big bonfire down there.
BLOODY "RED" — Well, at least then I won't need a match!
TULIPS — You also laugh, Bloody "Red." They'll burn your mustache one hair at a time.
TEACHER — Will you all shut up? Will someone please get a match for Bloody "Red."
He is starting to cry.
(Enter Gimbels and Alpo.)
TEACHER — What are you doing back here?
ALPO — You are the prototype of humanity. You refuse to accept our word, you de-
mand palpable proof. The bond of transcendent trust, which should bind all of
mankind, is lacking. Your philosophy is:
GOOD FENCES MAKE GOOD NEIGHBORS!!!!!
TEACHER — Did you see Mr. Abrams?
GIMBELS — We went into his office, but when he saw us he cringed behind his desk,
claiming that we were paid assassins, in the pay of Fink's cousin. He fears a
palace revolution.
TEACHER — What would we do if Mr. Abrams would leave?
CLEM — C'est aussi de la bienveillance.
TULIPS — Those goyim, they steal everything from us!
ALPO — That's the trouble with you Jews. . . .
GIMBELS — •'0 3 ""DH 1 ■> J<
FINK — There goes Gimbels with those tribal rights again.
ALPO — Your persecution complex, as well as your inferiority complex, is so strong. . . .
TEACHER — Why are you crying, Joe?
JOE — Because Alpo is hogging my turf.
ALPO — . . . that you must compensate with irritational claims of grandeur. . . .
(1. Teacher proceeds to window and jumps.
2. Class is stunned.
3. Tulips suggests going down to the office for a substitute.
4. Rabbi Weinbach enters.)
R.W. — What is all the racket about?
CLASS — But the teacher has jumped out of the window!
R.W. — I know, he passed my window on the way down.
CLASS — We're sorry. Rabbi, we knew not what we were doing!
CLEM — Those Jews, they steal everything from us.

i>. 3. (U.
Insirucfions: This is a test of your intelligence (or
lack of i\] and a measure of your ability to succeed
in college (provided your major is either advanced
Portuguese history or Talmud). You need not ansv/er
all questions unless you plan to enter Yeshiva Col-
lege. Many students wonder whether or not guess-
ing will improve their score. Many college-bound
students also wonder about life after death; the
non-war in Vietnam; and whether G-d is dead. From
our experience the CEEB feels that life after death
exists; that the Vietnamese non-war should be
ended; and that G-d is not dead — He is hiding out
in Teaneck. You will not be permitted to ask any
questions after the test has begun. If you are hit
by failing plaster, do not panic, the school is in-
sured. Do not start until the instructor has told you
to begin. Begin!

Part III: Reading Comprehension
Each year in my introductory lecture to my students I make ihe
point that the student should not get upset if definite patterns of action
fail to emerge from oui' studies, or if they have emerged, not to be
surprised if some action flies in the face of the pattern. Though man is
basically a rational being, there are times when rationality seems to
depart from his actions. This was certainly the case for many of us
from mid-May to mid-June, 1967. Though students were in the midst
of examinations, studying was the farthest thing from their minds;
Answer the following questions on the basis of
what is said or implied in the above paragraph.
1. The author of the above paragraph was

d. slightly out of it
2. It can be inferred from the passage that
a. the Radical Republicans prolonged Re-
construction
b. Genghis Kahn was really Jewish
c. Hamlet was really a coward
d. Charles Fourier was right
3. The opinions the author expresses are closest to
those of
a. Albert Feldstein
b. Maharishi Yogi
c. Charles de Gaulle
d. Kahil Gibran
4. A good title for the above passage is
a. The Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy
b. The Philosophy of Epsichatoiogy
c. How Black Power Can Work
d. All You Need Is Love
Part IV: Vocabulary

THE MONSTER OF DR. KIHREDGE
Once upon a time
In far-off New Orleans
There lived a Lyman Kittredge
Whose face was never seen.
His ambition was creation
Of a life as yet unknown
A mind diseased and ailing
Where the river Madness flowed.
Two assistants had this doctor
From the halls of Science they came
Their minds were utter derangement
Oh yes, Hink and Folz were their names.
Folz seemed like quite a nut
(Pistachio I think)
The other tinkered with his many toys
And girls did like the Hink.
This Kittredge also had a son
His heart was made of Gold
He snapped his fingers all day long
And soon his head grew bald.
But this boy had to run away
An Organization he would reign
So unto Harvard he did go
I think he was inane.
In this house lived his grandfather
His name was Mr. Moolb
Everyone played tricks on him
But he was never really fooled.
This family had a cook and butler
Their names I do not recollect
One was a real good kind of a Joe
The other's beard with gray was flecked.
The former had a way with words
Your mind he could analyze
Alas his own was much too small
For only orisions he could memorize.
The letter's tongue was super-fast
But words he often pulverized
So in the end his words grew terse
Thank you was all he could verbalize.
iSfflHiPP'"
115
One dark dismal day this crew assembled
In the laboratory below the house;
Into a large form electricity flowed
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Suddenly the form arose
To six feet plus it grew
Its hulk was just fantastic
And in the forehead was a screw.
The doctor hod to leap for joy
His dream had sprung to life
And in the joy of accomplishment
He hugged and kissed his wife.
Now the screw was the key to the creature
As a hair it was disguised
To turn was to wind it up
That is what I surmised.
To prove that he had created life
To New York Kittredge sent his thing
So on a plane the monster went
And soon the bird took wing.
It soon arrived in the city of Fun
And to Y.U. it went
But was mistaken for a Rabbi
For whom had just been sent.
The administrator of this school
Being a fun loving guy
Did not realize a mistake had been made
And so the place went awry.
The monster had a lot of fun
Bullying people around
He kept turning the screw in his hair
Till he reached three hundred pound.
The creature soon lost his mind
He thought his goal was to teach
He began to yell and scream and taunt
At the top of his lungs he would screech.
For eleven years the monster has lurched
No one being any the wiser
And no one save me knows of the screw-hair
(And maybe the Analyzer).
Richard Feczico

Elchanite '68 revitalized the concept of an MTA yearbook. Striking forth in all
directions out of former incinerator room 024, the yearbook made many notable
advancements. Unhindered by a personality and civilization clash in the persons of the
editors-in-chief, some semblance of a yearbook was put together in the last 39.6
seconds. In their sole concurring decision, Birnbaum and Stein held fast to their belief
that class attendance was a chore reserved for mortals.
The perennial problem of money-raising proved to be a task most suited to the
blood-thirsty editors and business managers. Mercilessly, ad-delinquents were hunted
down. Almost weekly, new ingenious schemes were devised to raise cash. A three
hundred letter mail campaign was the second front of our quest for funds. For some
strange reason, several corporations and individuals did not deem the Elchanite a
good advertising investment or a worthy charity. A "bring in your quota or death-by-
hanging" ultimatum also brought a noteworthy response. Expanding to other fields,
Elchy '68 put on the first financially successful Elchanite-Senior Play.
Near-havoc was brought to the school as horde after horde of photographers
descended upon the classrooms. Begrudgingly, the yearbook paid its photo bills. Our
industrious art staff was kept busy for several solid months trying to meet heavy de-
mands placed on them. Meanwhile, the various Elchanite staffs assumed immense
proportions.

Sixteen officers were elected to
the spring term Class Councils
on Tuesday, February 20, 1968.
No elections were required this
term for the president and sec-
Perspicuous, objective, insightful,
informative. Though the Academy
News is not the New York Times, this
year's editors have published a
school newspaper which is both dis-
tinctive and highly interesting. The
diligent news stafF endeavored to
print news coverage of the school's
fast breaking stories while they were
still fresh. Often, however, publica-
tion of many articles was delayed
because of the vast amount of news
which had to be published. Those
articles which were printed proved to
report not only the events themselves
but also the background information
which is essential to in-depth under-
standing of the news.
The Academy News did not limit
itself to mere news coverage. Colum-
nists appearing regularly in the paper
included Joel Grossman (Under the
Dome), David Greenstein, David
Birnbaum (Honorary Lit. -Editor), Marc
Stern, and Donald Duck. The
paper also featured interviews of
several vibrant Yeshiva figures,
among them Dean David Mirsky and
Mr. Jeroid Aronson.
The Editors-in-Chief, Norman Kram
and Myron Schweiger, and the Editor
of the Editorial Page, Steven Gross,
did not fear to voice their opinions
on the many controversial issues
which confronted the more involved
Yeshiva student. These issues included
student apathy, poor testing condi-
tions, and saying those things which
are not. Surprisingly, administrative
censorship was very limited.

Compact '67 made a big hit when it arrived just
in time for Wintersession. This Eichenholz-Langer
production stimulated the whole school into creativ-
ity for fear of a repeat performance.
Because of the diligent efForts of Editor-in-Chief
Eichenholz, this year's Compact came out twice as
many times as last year's. Thanks to the persever-
ance of Rabbi Weinbach, this is the second con-
secutive year that Yeshiva University High School
has produced a literary magazine. Judging by this
year's product, the Compact has truly come of age.
The editors of the Elchanite sincerely hope that the
administration will continue to support this student
publication.

Yagdil Torah
Yagdil Torah is the name of a new publication
first put out (with the help- of G-d) last year. Con-
by Rabbi A. Bronspigel, who now serves as
censor, Yagdil Torah is a magazine of orig-
idusbim by our Yeshiva students. Y.T., as it is
onately called, is designed to spur the drive 'A
earning among the students by encouraging •'^
to contribute articles which are their own. An
onal incentive is the five-dollar prize, which, of
, is expected to go toward the purchasing of
r, offered for the best article in each issue,
e past two years Y.T. has been under the co-
ship of Naftali Lewin and David Greenstein,
out-going seniors. It is hoped that Yagdil
with such an important function to perform,
ave continued success.

M. Jablon, R. Block, E. Burns, L Brovman, M. Fogel.
The Student Council is proud of the achievements
of this year's G.O. This year's General Organiza-
tion has been more active than any other in the
school's recent history. Membership reached an all
time high of 525 or 91 % of the school's total en-
rollment. This remarl<able percentage was reached
without any enducements or threats on the part of
the G.O.
It is important to mention some of the noteworthy
accomplishments of the G.O. during the past two
terms. Perhaps the most distinguished of all en-
deavors has been the successful attempt to organize
a learning seder. In keeping with the ideals of
Yeshiva University, the Student Council passed a
resolution establishing rewards for extra-curricular
learning.
New to the MTA scene this year was the Dra-
matics Club founded by our active student govern-
ment. Next year's seniors will thrill to the entertain-
ment by our talented prodigies as the club gains
more members and becomes a functioning part of
the school's diversified activities program.

G.O. Executive Council
R. Block, E. Burns
After many years of debate over the somewhat
unfair credit system, an equitable solution has been
reached. The Awards Committee has finally insti-
tuted a system which proves to be just and impar-
tial. The few students who have taken an altruistic
attitude towards school will receive a fair remunera-
tion from the General Organization, while the many
students have been members of non-functioning
teams and committees will also receive an ample
reward.
Entertainment became an important factor in
G.O. benefits this year. Members who cared to at-
tend were treated to one of the most outstanding
motion pictures of the early 1920's.
The year ended with a truly magnanimous ges-
ture on the part of the G.O. Profits from many hun-
dreds of boxes of Barton's Passover confections
sold by the General Organization were given to the
Ezra Fund of the Rabbinical Council of America. The
purpose of the candy drive was to help purchase
Matzoh's for Jews in the Soviet Union. The student
response to the drive was very gratifying.

Though it seemingly accom-
plished nothing, the Senior Council
of the fall term proved to be one
of the most successful senior coun-
cils of all time. Unfortunately, it
has not done anything for the
senior student body. Two major
operations were undertaken by
the council.
The first major action of the
council was the procuring of bas-
ketball tickets for the class. It
proved to be a highly successful
endeavor. All tickets were sold;
however, 20 of the 25 tickets were
not sold to seniors.
Senior Council
SPRING SENIOR COUNCIL
sfondi'ng: A. Blinder, P. Hochzstein, M. Berlove. seofed: B. Pan-
zer, J. Hankin, K. Paretzky, M. Meirowitz.
The senior derbies went over
like ruptured pole-vaulters. Mem-
bers of the class swallowed up the
derbies with much enthusiasm.
They also stomped on them, sat on
them, and threw them away.
The best example of student
government seen in many years
was the election and functioning
of the spring term Senior Council.
As shown by the elections, each of
the four members of the council
had 100% of his class behind
him. The council, as a whole, ac-
complished exactly what the sen-
ior class expected them to do.

Whenever a large group of people are confined
to a small area, tempers will flare and a governing
body is needed. In our dormitoiy, this function is
performed by the Dorm Council, along with its judi-
cial arm, the Dorm Court. The Council, led by Presi-
dent Jay Narotsky, enforces the rules of the resi-
dence hall, including the Code of Proper Behavior
for underclassmen and juniors when confronting
seniors. When the Council fails to settle a matter
peacefully, the Dorm Court is called into action.
This body, consisting of a board of three judges,
Chief-Justice Steve Heller and Justices Paul Schnei-
der and Martin Fisher, decides such questions fairly
and justly. Since tension ran high at the courtroom
hearings, Sergeants-at-Arms Benny Taube and Jack
Hankin stood by to see that there was "order in the
court." During one lawsuit, Hankin himself became
so emotional that he was forceably ejected by
Taube. By airing questions in the open, the Dorm
Court and the Dorm Council make our "house"
more livable.

The Dormacraf, issued in co-operation with our
school, is the ofRciai publication of MTA's dormitory.
The Druckman Beer Hall, better known as that little
old building sandwiched in between Yeshiva Col-
lege's towering dorm buildings, contains more than
one hundred students from all parts of the country.
This year, after an absence of four years, the high
school dorm periodical returned, thanks to the loyal
guidance of Rabbi Joseph P. Urivetsky and the un-
tiring efforts of editor Bernard Daina. Besides writ-
ing feature articles for each issue and directing the
Dormocrot's publication, Bernie drew the eye-catch-
ing covers of the publication. With the help of a
staff representing six states, the periodical offered
poems, jokes, provocative crossword puzzles, and
articles on religion, the cinema, and dormitory
"happenings." Having proved that a "literary"
magazine can be published economically, the Dor-
mocrot was praised by Dean Rabinowitz of Y.C. as
being "worthwhile."

Yeshiva Bowl Team
sfanding: N. lewin, S. Kasten, A. Gross, M. Schonfeld, A. Dienstag, S. Block, seated: S. Zii
Schweiger, Captain S. Steinberg, J. Grossman, G. Kaufman.
One of the most demanding of MTA's "intellectual" teams is the Yeshiva Bowl
Team. Requiring quick reflexes and an extensive knowledge of all topics, this year's
team compiled an amazing record. Although all of the players have a good back-
ground in all subjects, two students especially strong in math and science and two
strong in history and current events started at each meet. This combination, developed
by Captain Steven Steinberg, which was first used on an experimental basis, has
worked rather well. The squad's key player, who set an all-time MTA Yeshiva Bowl
scoring record, is Abbe (quick hands) Dienstag. In the first meet of the year, against
Manhattan Central, he was the first to hit the buzzer on nine toss-ups, while the rest
of the teams answered only three others! The team's literature-and-arts man was Joel
Grossman, who confounded the opposition with his good looks and knowledge of
classics and cinema trivia. Myron Schweiger and Naftali Lewin, along with Dienstag,
made up the team's math and science division. The team's history and current events
man was Captain Steinberg, who, along with newcomers Gary Kaufman, Stanley
Zimmerman, and Mark Schonfeld, is known for his sports minutia. Thanks to Yeshiva
College's sophisticated buzzer apparatus, the team had many thrilling meets, the most
exciting being the 330-320 come-from-behind victory over Flatbush.
Debating Team
Led by Captains Joel Grossman, Shalom Leaf, and Kenneth
Paretzky, the Debating Team bulled its way through another success-
ful campaign, though the squad's won-loss record didn't accurately
reflect the high caliber of speechmaking. This year's topics included
the advisibility of press coverage in the courtroom, the abandonment
of the Apollo project, and the U.S. position in Viet-Nam. Returning
from last year were veterans David Birnbaum, Abbe Dienstag, and
Steve Steinberg. These three polemicists continued to evince strong
forensic aptitude, ostentatiously vitiating the specious and spurious
contentions of their opponents. The leader of the rebuttalists was
Joel Grossman, MTA's Abba Ebon. As usual, the highlights of the
year were the Central debates. Against Brooklyn Central, members
of our team were treated to an eye-opening tour of the new building
complex, climaxed by an inadvertent visit to the girls' locker room.
Before SRO crowd at Yeshiva, the mini-skirted maidens of Man-
hattan squeaked by with a narrow victory, despite the fine rebutting
of Steve Steinberg. Though team victories were scarce, shining indi-
vidual performances made up for the mediocre record. The '67-'68
campaign can unquestioningly be termed a success.

Of all the non-athletic teams in our school, the
Math Team has once again been the most successful.
Despite the fact that our school competed against
schools many times its size, this year's squad
ranked eighth out of the more than thirty-three
participating schools. Headed by Captains Allan
(I Know Everything) Wolfish and Martin Fisher, the
team members are all from our school's advanced
placement math classes. Seniors Daniel (Hee Hee)
Chazin, Jonathan Buckwold, Abbe Dienstag, Naf-
tali Lewin, Myron Schv^eiger, and junior Sidney
Markowitz, along with the two captains, form the
nucleus of a strong squad. This year, as in the past,
many mix-ups prevented the team from reaching
an even highr rank. Most notable this past season
was the large sophomore turnout at meets and
practices, guaranteeing our team a bright future.

Elchanite- Senior Class Play
This year's Elchanite-Senior
Class Play, the first ever to be of-
ficially condoned by the school,
was a smashing success. After be-
ing postponed from its original
date of April 7th, the play was
finally presented on April 28th.
"Home of the Brave," a critically
acclaimed play was this year's
production.
The cast, a hand picked group,
worked tirelessly to insure an ex-
cellent show. (We should not fail
to add that these were the only
ones that bothered to audition.)
Under the leadership of Mr. Larry
Woxman, our cast, Mark Schon-
feid, Shalom Leaf, Richard Feczko,
Noah Nunberg, Milton Ackerman,
and Avram Stein, learned the art
of showmanship. Mr. Wachsman
was aided by Joel Grossman, as-
sistant director, Michael Markovitz,
technical director, and Norman
Kram, art director.
The editors of Elchanite '68
wish to thank Mr. Wachsman for
his great work.

The members bf this year's Arista out-did them-
selves in attempting to live up to the high standards
set by members of the Tehila Chapter in previous
years. Among the notable achievemnts of our honor
society was the election of President Abbe Dienstag
and Vice-President Myron Schweiger. Arista also
assumed the responsibility of maintaining the
school's Tutoring Squad. Members of the tutoring
staff asked no remuneration for their services but
v/ere content with the knowledge that they had
been instrumental in furthering the education of their
fellow students. Because Arista consisted of those
Seniors who had excelled not only in their Hebrew
and English studies but also in their service to the
school, it was evident that the prime function of
Arista was to serve as an example and inspiration
to the student body as a whole. In this task the
honor society seems to have succeeded admirably
The Tutoring Squad of Yeshiva University High
School was founded in September 1966 as a part
of the student court. It has continued to function
with its primary goal to give academic aid to any
student desirous of such assistance. Tutoring in all
academic subjects is usually given by students who
have already taken the particular subject. There is
no charge for any of these services, as tutors are
rewarded by an allotment of service credits.
As far as the goal of the squad is concerned, all
feel that the squad has succeeded in helping stu-
dents with their studies. However, students must
always remember that they must work hard on their
own to find their tutor and develop study habits
without ever relying wholly on tutoring. It is our
hope and belief that as long as Rabbi Rapaport
continues to serve our school, the tutoring squad
will function and keep on providing assistance to
students in need.

Canvassing Committee
Under the expert guidance of
veteran campaigner Norman Kram,
this year's canvassing committee
did on excellent job carrying out
the decrees of Dr. Doc. Displaying
their superior talents (and main
responsibility) the committee ably
resolved the close vote counts in
the fall elections.
The major features of the spring
term were the non-election of the
President and the Senior Councils.

The Yeshiva University High
School library has presently about
8,000 books covering all aca-
demic fields of science, history,
literature, biographies, fiction, etc.
It is, as it should be, the pride of
the school. But from its inception
in 1929, it has been failing in one
vital respect — the circulation de-
partment. There are never more
than seventy-five booi<s out.
There are hopes that these con-
ditions will change for the better.
There are plans afoot to move the
library to the second floor into the
present Gottesman Library as soon
as the new Pollack Graduate Li-
brary is completed.
Undaunted by these obstacles,
the fearless bibliophiles of the
library squad went about their
duties collecting service-credits. A
great amount of tribute is due also
to the chief librarian. Dr. Ben D.
Thapiro.

Emergency Squad
Responding to an impending fire drill, MTA's first
Emergency Squad was set up under the tutellage of
Lawrence Mittman. Larry did an admirable job of
hand-picking the squad from his ten best friends.
When the big day came, all was in readiness. After
the alarm was sounded, excited students were
calmed down and directed by efficient, dedicated
and awe-inspiring seniors to places of safety.

Pour la premiere fois dans I'histoire de notre ecole, une societe francaise
etait fonde par ses etudiants. Le but de cette societe est d'apprendre de la France, sa
langage, et I'histoire de sa civilisation et culture. Cette societe est composee
d'etudiants du quatrieme trimestre scolaire francais. Les reunions se tiennent une fois
pour semaine apres les heures. Une groupe d'etude a ete arranger a preparer ces
etudiants qui ont pris L'examination de Regents en francais au mois de juin 1968.
Cette etude a eu de lecture et des courses en grammaire et literature.
Trois membres de notre societe ont dejd sustitue pour des professeurs francais
qui ont ete absents. Cette societe francaise de Yeshiva ete forme en Septembre 1967
par deux etudiants, Lewis Rubin et Mark J. Meirowitz. Notre cher professeur, Monsieur
Harry Fried, (president du departement de langues) a gracieusement accepte d'etre
le conseilleur de la societe. Nous sommes tous tres reconnaissants pour son genereuse
assistance. La societe a aussi eu I'honneur d'etre adresse par Monsieur le Professeur
Ernest Simon de Yeshiva University au sujet de I'education en France et du program de
francais a Yeshiva University. Son disceure a ete recu par tout le monde avec le plus
grand enthuasm.
La societe etait fonde pour creeer interet supplementiare en francais, pas
seulement en grammaire et vocabulaire, mais aussi plus que ca, un desir d'atteindre la
profondeur de la langue. Nous croyons tous que nous avons reussi dans cette regarde.

This year a long standing defect in our language department was remedied by the
creation of a Spanish Society. Hitherto, while Spanish students received a firm ground-
ing in basic conversation and grammar (?) the study of Spanish culture was largely
neglected. The Spanish Society, formed by Harry Bloom, Shelly Kohn, Leon Kozak,
Howard Kohn, and Andy Eichenholz, was designed to fill this void. At the weekly
meetings (held every two months) the members of the society, under the guidance of
Mr. Kalman Welansky (sic.) presented short lectures on Spanish history, customs, and
government. Mr. Welansky stimulated interest by injecting Spanish humor into the dis-
cussions. The success of the society was demonstrated by the large number of students
who voluntarily gave up their class time in order to further their knowledge of Spain
and its inhabitantsix;!?:? In conclusion we'd just like to say "Muchas gracias, Kal!"

This year's Chess Team, led by Captain Michael Markovitz, held many tryouts and
practice meets in order to develop a strong and skilled squad. Unfortunately, our arch
rival Ramaz (the only school with whom we have had meets in the past two years)
failed to produce a team this year, leaving us without an opponent. To add to the
team's troubles, the lY failed to come through with its proposed schedule of chess
meets. Undaunted, Captain Markovitz attempted to compete with George Washington
High School, but unsuccessfully. (It seems that G.W. was a bit drowsy this year.) It is
hoped that next year's captain, Victor Sussman, will be more successful.

For the most part, this was the year of the Lion. The M.T.A. bas-
ketball team dominated all other Jewish high schools in the metro-
politan area for the bulk of the season. The Lions possessed one of
the strongest teams in recent M.T.A. history, captained by playmaker
Harold Perl. The rebounding chore was left to Scott Seidlin and of-
fense to Morty Lempel. The defensive experts and outside shooters
were Hershy Wolf and Neal Glazer. Our two top reserves, Yechiel
Eckstein and Barry Wenig, might have started on any other team in
the league. In short, M.T.A. had a very well-rounded team.
The year started off quite auspiciously with the Lions steam-
rolling over J.E.C. 86-38 in the Garden. Harold Perl led the team
with 31 points. Following an exhibition win over H.I.L.I., we took on
B.T.A. Wolf's outside shooting undid the Yugars, spurring us on to a
69-52 win. Our next victim was H.I. L.I. and this time it was the
"Beast" Glazer's hot shooting which sparked the Lions to an easy
65-40 victory.
After successive wins over R.J.J, and Rogosin, the team left the
Yeshiva League for some "extra-curricular" games. The one against
arch-rival Albertus Magnus was tight all the way with the score tied at
the end of regulation play. Then, despite a great effort by Lempel,
we finally lost in overtime. Due to Harold Perl's sidelining with an
injured ankle, M.T.A. lost its next game to Nonuet. Against Y.C.Q.
the team regained its winning ways with Yuck-Eckstein, filling in for
injured Scott Seidlin, leading the way.
The battle between unbeaten Flatbush and M.T.A. threatened to
be a tough one. After a tight first half, the game was tied, but an all
out team effort in the second half overwhelmed the Falcons and we
coasted to an easy 59-43 victory. After an easy win over J.E.C, we
again left the league and got our revenge against Nanuet with a
59-42 victory, but lost to Riverdale. M.T.A. bounced back, however,
for a 63-53 win over B.T.A. Ramaz and Rogosin were no match for
Scott Seidlin, who poured in 45 points to give the Lions two more
in the win column. We then proceeded to cool ofF a sizzling R.J.J,
team and followed this by easily rolling over Ramaz.
The high point of the season easily was our 79-68 win over un-
defeated Pope Pius. This was the first time in the M.T.A. — Pope Pius
rivalry that the Lions came out on top and was mostly due to Scott
Seidlin's 28 points. We then travelled to H.I. L.I,, where we pulled out
a 37-34 victory in the last minute. After a convincing win over YCQ,
the Lions finally lost a game to HILI in the Madison Square Garden
exhibition game. Almost everyone scored in double figures in the
last league game of the season against Flatbush, and MTA finished
up their 16-0 season with a 69-42 victory.
The championship game was eagerly looked forward to by all.
MTA would again be facing HILI and the Lions were out for revenge.
However, in a tightly contested game marked by two periods of
overtime, the Lions once more succumbed to HILI, 49-48. This loss
marred an otherwise very successful and proud season.
As Captain of this year's team, Harold Perl very capably took
over the responsibility of being the team's leader on and off the
court. Possessing a fine shot, strength under the boards, and
elusive moves, Harold v/as one of the best all-around players in the
league. His unselfishness on the court and fine passing helped him
to become the team leader in assists. The Shepherd could alv/ays be
counted on to keep his cool even in the tightest situations and was
consistently able to pull the rest of his teammates back together
again. Among the team leaders in scoring and rebounding. Poll was
voted MVP in the league's all-star game.
Neal Glazer's un-orthodox jump shot helped him to become
one of the league's most feared outside shooters. When he wasn't
bombing them in from the outside, he was using his speed to go
around players and put in the quick bucket. His tenacious defensive
tactics and long arms resulted in many stolen balls for our team. Neal
was also up there in scoring and had the highest free-throw percent-
age on the team.
Always having great potential, Morty Lempel finally became a
consistent ballplayer this season. His deadliness from the corner and
his tremendous baseline moves earned him much respect throughout
our league. Always tough under the boards, Morty many times came
up with the key follow-up or tip-in. He was known for coming up
with the impossible shot at times when the situation looked bad for
our team. Morty was also a consistent high scorer and was voted a
berth on the league's all-star team.
Hershy Wolf has a good shot — when and if he decides to use
it. When he did, Hersh showed himself to be a real spark to the
team. There were many times when a couple of quick baskets by
J. B. put our whole team back together. He is a fine ballhandler and
throughout the season set up many of his teammates with fine lead
passes.
"A leaper with a pretty shot" Is the way to describe Yechiel
Eckstein. Probably one of the best sixth men in the league, Yuck
came off the bench many times to spark the club with his tough re-
bounding. His deadly shot and good moves around the basket
proved valuable assets to the team's efforts. He led all scorers in the
two games that he started this year.
As this year's starting center, Scott Seidlin helped our team
greatly. His rebounding ability was unmatched throughout the
league. Scott used his 6'7" height to virtually dominate his oppon-
ents at both ends of the court. A tough defensive man, Scott used his
unparalleled jumping ability to block many shots. Also among the
team leaders in scoring, Scott was selected as starting center for the
league all-star game.
As our team's third backcourt man, Barry Wenig proved in-
valuable. Starting many games as a result of injuries to the starting
five, he always performed admirably. Barry has a fine outside shot
and is capable of a tough inside game also. His defensive tactics
and all-around ability were quite effective against our opponents.

In keeping with the proud tradition of activity it had inherited,
this year's row recruits transformed themselves into a fine competitive
sv^imming team. With the efforts of veterans Coach Arty Lacher and
Captain Bernie Daina, we confidently swamped HILI and scored
numerous other victories. Such notables as Nunberg, Gribetz,
Heiliczer, and Monderer evinced their outstanding capabilities. Re-
markable improvements were made by seniors Schneider, Hankin,
Bermish, and Safier who conscientiously swam on their own during
non-practice nights. Each week's hard work-outs were enhanced by
the presence of many eager underclassmen, who assure our team a
promising future.

Going into the baseball season with the responsibility of con-
tinuing a string of two consecutive undefeated seasons. Captains
Noah Nunberg and Jack Hankin were not shaken by the fact that the
team was actually scheduled to play some games. The dauntless duo,
faced with such minor problems as the lack of a proper playing field,
equipment, and a team, enthusiastically started spring training early
in March. The practice really paid off as the team once again re-
mained undefeated.
Handball
C:^
One of the oldest traditions in YUHS, the handball team again
functioned this year. Inspired by the reading of "The Wall," captains
Martin Fisher and Steven Heller succeeded in recruiting a talent-
packed lineup (including three cellists, two violinists, and one pian-
ist) which proved a formidable threat to all opponents. The backbone
of the team consisted of singles champs Jay Narotsky and Jack
Wimpfheimer, and doubles champs Naftali Flaumenhaft — Rafie
Softer and Steve Steinberg — Phil Landa. By dint of the team's un-
defeated record it seems sure that the I.Y. first place basketball
trophy will again land up in Rabbi Weinbach's office.
147
Bowling
Thanks to the initiative of Captains Joy
Neuhaus and Jay Rosenberg, MTA for the
first time has an operational bowling team
this year. Other members include regulars
Arthur Horowitz, Lewis Rubin, and Norman
Schwartz, and irregulars Sheldon Kohn,
Curtiss Pulitzer, Barry Kopitnikoff, Jonathan
Levy, and Norman Leibowitz. In the first of
two lY meets this year, Yeshiva made a fair
start by finishing a close third behind BTA
and Flatbush, partially due to the absence
of one of our regular keglers and the re-
maining four teams. A bright note, how-
ever, was Captain Rosenberg's capturing
of the beautiful trophy for individual high
score which coincided with Mr. Fried's age.
All in all. Jay and the rest of the team com-
bined their skills for a truly remarkable
first year. Yeshiva's bowling team has
really struck out in its rookie year.

E. Genouer, L. Rubin.
Posing one of the most awesome assem-
blages of team captains ever to grace our
school's tennis courts, this year's tennis
team did us proud. Team members were
chosen after an exhaustive, month-long
round-robin elimination tournament. Our
first victory, over Flatbush, was held out-
doors in February and resulted in a sweep
by MTA. After this solid showing, other
teams shied away from competition. How-
148 ever, other meets were scheduled.

Junior Varsity
Under the inspiring and dedicated coaching of
Jonathan Halpert, the Junior Varsity basketball
team fared almost as well as their upper-class
counterparts. Coming in second place behind BTA
in a tough league, the J.V. came away with a dis-
tinguished 14-3 record. Much credit is due to cap-
tains Faber and Hoenig. A bright future is definitely
in store for this fine group of athletes.
