SalutatoryLadies and Gentlem en:
T w o u ld seem to bo a simple matter to bid you a cordial w elcom e in
behalf o f the S ix ty - th ir d G raduating Class o f Franklin School.
A n d yet, the convent iona l phrases are hopelessly inadequate to e x
press w h a t w e th ink and feel as we face you ton ight . Perhaps our difficulties
are due to the fact that it is not really our greetings to you w h ich are im p o r t
ant. but rather yours to us on our arrival at this po in t in our careers. W e
realize very clearly that w e are about to leave our b o y h o o d behind us and to
meet the outside w orld , from w h ich we have been shielded and sheltered in
the classrooms o f Franklin School. W e feel, therefore, like travelers w h o , on
their arrival at a station, are met w i t h a w arm w elcom e from their dear
ones, and w h o se m in d s and hearts are too full for utterance w i t h happiness and gratitude.
B en ja m in Franklin , the tutelary saint o f our school, has bequeathed
to us m a n y rich traditions o f w h ic h all patriotic Americans m ay w ell be
proud. Our inst i tu t ions rest on the practical idealism w h ich he and the
other fathers o f our country exemplified and personified, and w h ich leave
no room for ty ra n n y through com m unist ic or fascistic form s o f govern
ment. Surely the best antidote against these po isons is sound education.
Its supreme importance to the indiv idual and the nation B enjam in F rank
l in a lw a y s em phasized, as in these impressive lines from P o o r Richard’s A l m a n a c :
“ If a m an empties his purse in to his head, n o man can take it aw ay
from h im . A n investm ent in k n o w led g e a lw ays pays the best interest .’^
T h i s say ing loses none o f its force and vigor because the purses w hich
have been emptied in to our heads were yours. T h e investm ent is there
just the same, even th o u g h it w a s made by you , and w e hope to prove by
our lives that it pays rich interest. T h i s , surely, w e o w e not o n ly to you,
but to F rankl in School , to w h ic h w e are indebted for far more than we
can ever repay. W e m a y n o t be able to f o l l o w in the footsteps o f our
i l lustrious predecessors— the L ehm ans, the L ippm ans, the M orgenthaus—
but that w e w i l l d o our best, y o u have our assurance.
B u t it is n o t w i t h in m y province to make promises or predictions.
O f these y o u w i l l hear sufficient from m y classmates. A l l I m a y do is to
give y o u our thanks for your presence, and for the inspiration and cheer
w h ic h w e derive from your sy m p a th y and approval. It is, moreover, m y
privilege, as salutatorian o f the class o f 1 9 3 5 , to voice the hope that our
graduation exercises w i l l afford y o u very real pleasure, and that y o u w i l l
forgive any and all o f the shortcom ings o f our program w i th k in d ly and
fr iendly indulgence.
J o h n J . M o r g e n s t e r n
T wenty- thc
class HistoryLadies and Gentlemen;
H E N I first learned that I w as to present to y o u our class h istory , I felt greatly honored. T h a t , how ever , was t w o lo n g weeks ago n o w I feel differently. I have come to the definite conclus ion that
to write a class h istory is far worse than contracting a case o f malaria or some such thing.
I have spent m a n y sleepless n ights w o n d e r in g where I could obta in any in form at ion about the class o f 1 9 3 5 . I have p lagued w i t h quest ions Mr. Kahlstrom , Mr. Gorsl ine, and the entire S m ith fam ilv .
Mr. K ahls trom threw me o u t o f his office 14^^ times ( the ^ was w h e n I ejected m yse l f before he could gst to m e.)
T h e n I immersed m yse l f in docum ents and records. For days and days I wandered bleary-eyed through the school. Q uest ions and quest .ons!
W h a t were y o u like in Pr im ary I?Were y o u a very g ood b o y in Pr im ary II? and so on.T o n i g h t y o u see me the mere s h a d o w o f m y former self. I w a n t y o u
to k n o w that I take it for granted that I shall be offered a niche in the H all of Fame for m y efforts. I hope that I have made it quite ckar to y o u that a Class Historian, especially o f this class o f 1 9 3 5 , is very apt to suffer from nervous prostration because o f h a v in g delved just a li tt le to o deeply in to the checkered career o f his class.
A t this point , I feel it proper to begin m y tale, since I realize that y o u all are b y n o w s itt ing on the edges o f your chairs in breathless anx iety .
A fter p lagu ing Mr. K ahls trom for several days. I f inally m anaged to sec the school records and fo u n d that four o f our present tw e n t y - o n e mein- bers began their school careers in Pr im ary I— they are Messrs. Preis, D avis , K in g and Seligman. T h i s first year w as very hard on these patricians— y o u k n o w , the first year is the hardest— but I can assure y o u that their w o r th y teachers suffered just as much, w h a t w i t h little razor blades o n their chairs and other cute things.
B y Int. I the class o f 1 9 3 5 assumed definite signs o f grandeur w i t h the entrance o f B. D a v id Kaplan, M orgenstern and M il ler to the sanctum of Franklin . In Int. II your historian jo ined the b a n d w a g o n as it were w it h Gross and Shapiro, and b y Jun . II our class had been swelled by Bamberger, Herz, Jacobson, Koch, and Sperling to a grand total o f n in e teen. N o w at last in Sen. A . h a v in g been jo ined b y Langer, L ev y , Merritt. Gluckin, Glickenhaus, and G utm an, h a v in g reached our goal, w e have tw e n ty -o n e s ta lw art members ready to do or die— O h ! w a i t a m inute , I seem to be w andering s l ight ly .
T o continue in the right track, I m ust in form y o u that even in the primary days the class o f 1 9 3 5 w as noted for its precocity. T h ere is a g ood exam ple o f this q ua lity s h o w n in the refusal o f the class to do any horne- w o r k for M iss Briggs unless she gave us a c o m b in at ion red and go ld star i n stead o f the plain go ld one. W h y , y o u o u g h t to have seen our collectivc bargaining in action.
T wcni t i - fou t
Y o u m ust k n o w , how ever , that under the roguishness o f the class o f lay real intell igence. D id not the gold fish in Prim ary I actually break
a rccord by rem aining alive for one entire m o n th under our intell igent care?
T h e n in Int 111 w e gathered up our armor after a penm ansh ip contest w ith Int. IV and carried off the penm ansh ip prize, a beauteous plaque, even before it w as discovered that w e had actually w o n it. 1 guess we just w anted to make sure, that's all.
A l s o it w as during these Ju n ior h igh school years that we were taught by one o f our members, one o f our e x - ’3 5s, w h a t a w onderfu l meal chalk made w ashed d o w n w i th water.
In Sen. C. w a s begun the major literary endeavor o f our career. A w eek ly paper was started, called the Voice o f the Class ( V o x P o p u l i was suggested as a name but the ow ners o f the enterprise, w h o included Miller and y o u r historian, d idn t th ink that the rest o f the school w o u ld understand t h a t ) .
M a y I p o in t out to y o u the remarkable fact that the paper actual ly cont inued for t w o m o n th s , m a in ly because our fiction writer was unable, even t h o u g h aided by his three other board members, to contrive a suitable end ing for a w o n d e r f u l ly thril l ing m ystery serial.
In June o f 1 9 3 3 w e had our first encounter w i t h the college boards. I d ist inct ly remember Mr. Merritt tickling our ribs in algebra classes and confidentia lly w h isp er in g to us that w e c o u ld n ’t poss ib ly get more than a 5 0 % . Fortunate ly , w e all proved h im w r o n g and last year, a l th ou gh we suffered som e d isappoin tm ents , the class o f ’35 brought h om e t w o marks of 9 5 , several 90s , and m a n y 8 5 s and 8 0 s from the college boards. M o r e over, m u ch pestering o f Mr. H all on m y part has d ivulged the fact that our class has accumulated more po in ts for college than any other class in the h is tory o f Franklin . Ladies and Gentlemen, y o u have no idea h o w great an h o n o r it is for y o u to be here ton ight .
A n d so I came at last to a review o f our Senior year. T h ere seems to be som e d o u b t as to w h a t has been our greatest outside o f school hours' activ ity. Som e claim that it w as the perfection o f board-eraser throw in g , cl im axed b y the great Grand N a t io n a l contest w h ich Morgenstern w o n from M erritt and Sperling.
W e are, h ow ever , proud to s h o w y o u an excellent record in a lmost every phase o f our endeavors. U n d er the coaching o f Mr. Sobel w e had one o f the best soccer seasons in the sch o o l ’s h is tory b y beating Fieldston, L i n coln, and Birch W a th e n and ty in g Riverdale. A ls o our basketball and baseball teams have had g o o d seasons in 1 9 3 5 .
In our more scholarly extra-curricular activities the class o f ’3 5 s chess team, com posed o f Messrs. Bamberger, Morgenstern, and Sperling, and o f K atzenste in from J u n I, attained second place in the Private School chess league. T h e class o f ’35 was also ab ly represented in the Science and D e b a t ing clubs. W e have had, how ever , a rather disappointed career in interclass debates. W e w o u ld have had the extreme h o n o r o f being F ra n k l in ’s o n ly class to have lost all four inter-class debates if we had n o t w o n our last one, w h ic h to o k place w i t h Sen. B o n April 2 6 th . It really was a shame for us to have spoiled our chances for a record in that manner. Our receipts, h ow ever , for that last debate were the best that we've ever had. T h i s was the result o f the w o n d e r fu l w o r k o f the t w o Senior members o f the
debate committee, Messrs. Sel igm an and Shapiro. T h e ir fine w o r k enabled us to pay off the debt contracted for our Senior Prom enade, w h ic h w a s held on April 1 2 th at the S a v o y P laza . Our P r o m , how ever , w as a huge social success and set an enviable precedent for future proms.
A s for our literary endeavors this year, w e m anaged, against great odds, to pu b l ish t w o w o n d er fu l issues o f T h e Red and Blue, and p lans are being made sh ort ly to send the Franklin ite to press.
W i t h reference to our college choices, I can o n ly say that the class of ’35 has been very fickle indeed. Last year s ix members applied at Harvard, w h i le this year, all but three dropped their applicat ions there and switched to Yale . I guess Harvard is just o u t o f luck. D a r tm o u th , h ow ever , h o n ored us greatly b y accepting b o th B o b Jacobson and D a v e Sperling in the A pri l selections. W e hope that next year’s senior class w i l l be as fortunate.
In reviewing the events o f this last year, I feel that there are m a n y little anecdotes w h ich shou ld be to ld in order to present a com plete picture.
T h ere was Mr. H a l l ’s in im itable im itat ion o f Caesar’s ghost , w h e n w e were frightened a lm ost as m u ch as at the remarkable deve lop m en t o f the “ last rose o f P e k in g ” into the t o w n ’s biggest d andy . A n d w e shall a lw a y s remember h o w often w e were shocked in to sensibil ity b y M orgen - stern’s y e l lo w ensembles and G u t m a n ’s p in k shirts and h o w the w o r th y Salutatorian proved h im se lf to be the m ain attraction at the Senior P rom . A n d w h o does n o t remember h o w w e used to get Mr. H e in tze to wander a w a y from German and lecture to us on, let us say, p a le o n to lo g y in the S o u th Sea Islands? B ut , alas, everyth ing m ust end. T h o s e h a p p y days have passed behind.
A n d so the historian ends his docum ent. He has tried to convey to y o u that he believes his class to be one o f the finest that F rankl in has ever produced. He also cla ims that the h is tory o f the class o f ’3 5 has n o t been determined b y its members alone, but also b y the fa ith fu l teachers w h o have guided them through m a n y trials and tr ibulations to the c u lm in a t io n of their first m ajor endeavors.
T h e Historian o f the Class o f 1 9 3 5 hopes that the future h is tory o f each and every member o f the class w i l l be as successful as the class’ career in Franklin School. A n d the historian closes w i t h the o f t -q u o te d w ord s “A v e atque V a le ” , hail and farewell— hail to the life ahead, and farewell to the h ap p y years behind.

Class ProphecyH E lights fade to dimness: a hiisli falls over the aiidicnce; and
there goes the curtain for the first act o f “ M il l ion s for Expense, but Nc)t O n e Cent for C h a r i ty ,” a play in three acts by J o h n Morgen-
stern.H a v in g gained a reputation by w r it in g for A r g o s y A l l - S t o r y M a g a
z ine . the author o f this play had ventureci in to the field o f drama in order to give vent to his d isapproval o f the capitalistic social system. It was his novel m an rer o f h a n d l in g propaganda that had made his former plays successful. N o w I am about to describe his greatest satire, w h ich he bashed up on the indiv idual lives o f various persons w h o m he had k n o w n during his varied existence. In this drama he com bined plutocrats w i th c o m m unis ts and poured forth all the bitterness that had been cooped up in h ’s heart ever since his contact w i t h Franklin School.
T h e sett ing for the first act is a modernist ically furnished apartment w ith an abundance o f easy chairs and hideous paintings. T h e center of the stage is occupied by a bridge-table , at w h ich are seated four distinguish- ed - lo o k in g gentlem en. T h e y are Mr. Richard Miller, a mill ionaire sports man w h o sold his shoe industry to gain a reputation as an organist: Mr. Stephen Herz, Jr., w h o has a m o n o p o ly o f the cigar business: Dr. D av id Sperling, w h o is k n o w n th ro u g h o u t the w or ld for his expert medical treatments: and finally, the guest o f honor . Sir B. D a v id Kaplan, K .C .B , , Marquis o f P loubazlenes . w h o has just arrived from L o n d o n in order to attend the op en in g o f a n ew concert hall constructed especially for ths presentation o f his operas. S tand ing behind the bridge table are t w o equally fam ou s personages: nam ely , Mr. Richard Seligman, president o f the International A lu m in u m Industry , and his efficiency expert and social d i rector. E ugene Richard Schwabach. T h e appropriate atmosphere is createcl b y the orchestra in the pit under the direction o f Maestro Gerald Gluckin .
T h e action o f the first act consists chiefly o f a battle o f w its between the members o f the bridge party, unti l these austere gentlemen discontinue their game to aid Mr. S e l igm an in an argum ent w i t h his secretary. T h e latter has several times a lm ost rudely interrupted the conversation in order to express his o w n ha lf -baked o p in io n s o n art and music. H is boss, w h o is b y nature a rather quiet person, s trong ly disapproves o f his em ployee’s conduct and finally su m m o n s e n ou gh courage to tell h im so. T h e outcome o f this reprimand is a heated discussion, in w h ich his friends force Mr. Seligm an to discharge his enraged secretary. T h e first act is then m a g n if i cently concluded b y an oration b y Mr. Schw abach in w h ic h the author o f the drama expresses, th rou gh his protagonist , his utter contem pt for all that smacks o f aristocracy.
T h e r e is a short interm ission for a change o f scenery; and w h e n the curtain again rises, the audience is confronted w i t h a large hall, crowded w it h people and thick w i th smoke. O n the left o f the stage is a raised p la t form u p o n w h ic h are seated a group o f shabbily dressed individuals . From the h u n g r y lo o k on all the faces, this is o b v io u s ly a radical meeting.
W h e n M r. G luck in has finished conduct ing the band in his o w n a r rangement o f the “ Internationale ," the chairman. Comrade Roger Merritt, begins his in trod u ct ion o f the guest speaker, “ that dem agogue from W ash-
T iventu-seven
in g to n , that w o r t h y successor to H u e y L o n g , M r. E d m u n d Bamberger. B u t n o sooner has the speaker opened his m o u t h than our hero, Mr. Schwabach, makes a dramatic appearance. F ro m the greetings and applause that he receives, he m u st be a w e l l - k n o w n figure at such con v en t io n s! I n flamed b y this uncal led-for intrusion, the chairman m ig h t have begun a fight, had it n o t been for the in tervention o f Father E d w a r d G u tm a n . B u t for tunate ly for all concerned, v iolence is averted; and w e have the privilege of hearing the m o st e loquent series o f speeches, w h ich , a l th o u g h con tra dictory, are absolute ly meaningless. Y e t merely the exc item ent o f the speakers is in f lam m atory to such a crow d: so the curtain falls on a tu m u lt o f fly ing fists, leaving Mr. Schw abach the sole possessor o f the speaker’s p la t form and a b lo o d y nose.
Relief from this excitem ent is provided b y the third and last act, b y far the m o st spectacular ever presented in a p lay o f this calibre. T h e scene is laid in the George Preis Cafe, a s w a n k y n ig h t-c lu b that is used as the heart o f the sport w or ld . A t the various tables are seated m a n y cham pions o f sport. T h ere is B a tt l in g Richard D av is , challenger for the h e a v y w e ig h t title: beh ind h im is ‘‘D i z z y D a v e ” Shapiro, star pitcher for the A rizo n a Polar Bears: and w a y back in the corner, w e can see the in ternat ional g o lf cham pion , Robert Jacobson, as he is speaking to the proprietor, Mr. Preis, and his general manager, Mr. Langer.
T h ree years are supposed to have elapsed betw een the second and third acts, and Mr. Schw abach has become headwaiter in Preis’, where he has been try ing to become familiar w i t h his former classmates. H e k n o w s that the loss o f his fortune spelled his social d o o m , b u t there is st i l l the hope that som eone m a y take p i ty on his deplorable condit ions , and there are a lw a y s those friends d o w n in U n i o n Square. T h e se so lem n m editat ions are abruptly s topped b y the G luckin Gargoyles, the band an n o u n c in g the com m encem ent o f the floor sh o w . T h e ballet, w h ich has been under the careful training o f R u d o lp h Gross, makes a sp lendid appearance as it whir ls to the m e l lo w voice o f R o y Glickenhaus, the celebrated crooner, w h o also holds the l ig h t -w e ig h t b o x in g title. T h e ballet over, the orchestra picks up its theme song as announcer Roger K in g steps up to the m icrophone to introduce the next number. “ T h i s program is c om in g to y o u . ” he says, “ through the courtesy o f the Robert L ev y Chemical Laboratories, m a n u facturers o f L e v y ’s Longer L ast ing L ozenges for L onger L ast ing C o u g h s .” T h e n , after Mr. Glickenhaus has finished another song, the entertainm ent is over, the stage is set for the final episode in this thr i l l ing drama.
In a loud voice Mr. Preis su m m o n s his head-w aiter and tells h im to prepare a table for five. A s the party enters from the left, w e recognize the four bridge players from the first act, and the demagogue, Mr. B a m berger, w h o addressed the m o b in the second. T h i s w i ly po lit ic ian has not forgotten the treatment he received at the hands o f Mr. Schw abach: and so he has brought his patrons to torm ent this inofl^ensive waiter. Here 1 need not go in to the gruesome details o f this persecution: but before the curtain falls, Schw abach is forced to hand his resignation to the manager and w e n d his weary w a y to w a rd East Fourteenth Street.
A more wretched play I have never described: how ever , Mr. M or- genstern’s conception o f his characters is so nearly correct that I m ay turn this in to a class prophecy s im p ly by q u o t in g from Shakespeare,
“ A l l the w o r ld is a stage.A n d men are but the players on i t .”

ValedictoryLadies and G ent lem en:
r is m y object this evening to portray to you the em otions w hich w e o f the graduating class o f 19 35 feel at this turning po in t in
our lives. Please consider this speech not as a mere oratorical ges
ture, but as an attem pt to convey these em ot ion s to you s im p ly and ac'-
curately.
T o n i g h t w e ccase to be boys; we become men, to assume up on our
shoulders the mature ob l iga t ion s o f the w or ld o f our elders. W i t h the i m
petuosity o f y o u th w e do so eagerly. B ut even in our p lunge tow ard the h o r iz o n o f the future, w e carry in our m inds a faint regret at leaving the
w o r ld o f our ch i ld h ood , w h o se m a n y pleasures we are but n o w first b eg in
n ing to realize and en joy . Since w e are leaving this ch i ld h ood w or ld , let us
pause for a m o m e n t in fo n d retrospection.
T h i s evening marks the cu lm inat ion o f the efforts o f our lives up to
this p o in t . M o s t o f us began our ascent o f the path o f learning here at
Franklin , and all o f us regret leaving it, in spite o f our avid thirst for fu r
ther progress.
A trem endous ob l igat ion , one w h ich can never be repaid, rests upon
us for the m a n y benefits w e have received here, first to our beloved friend
and advisor. Dr, O t to K oenig , w h o started us so l ic i tously and well upon
our acquisit ion o f an education: to Mr. Berenberg and Mr. Hall , w h o have
sincerely and successfully undertaken to continue his w ork: and to our
teachers, w h o have labored long , di l igently , patiently , and ceaselessly to
im part to us their fu n d s o f know led ge . B u t those to w h o m above all we
are grateful are our parents. It w o u ld be futi le to attempt to put in to
w o rd s our gratitude to those w h o have watched us all our lives w i t h lov ing
care and u n en d in g devot ion , w h o have j o y f u l l y sacrificed that w e m igh t
benefit. T h e o n ly possible ack n o w led g m en t o f these gifts bestow ed upon
us in love that w e can offer w i l l be our endeavor to make our lives w h a t
they w ish ed them, b y tireless effort to s h o w those w h o have had faith and
pride in us that that fa ith and that pride have n o t been misplaced.
T h i s class has been together for eleven years. D u r in g this time there
have been, invariably , p e tty disagreements here and there; just as in
ev i tab ly have sprung up fast friendships. Let us resolve to use the m any
years to come to the best possib le advantage to sm o o th over these discords,
to cement fr iendships forever. W e shall o f course find n ew associations,
b u t those w h ic h we have already form ed let us keep for the sake o f the
m em o ry o f the happiest days o f our lives.
W h a t better w ord s could be fo u n d to describe our present pos i t ion
than those in w h ic h Shakespeare says:
“ T h ere is a tide in the affairs o f men,
W h ic h , taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
O m itted , all the voyage o f their life
Is b o u n d in s h a l lo w s and in miseries.
O n such a full sea are w e n o w afloat;
A n d w e m ust take the current w h e n it serves.
Or lose our ventures.”
T h e time has arrived for us to embark u p o n the uncertain waters o f
the sea o f Life; m ay w e be carried to the m ost favorable ports on that sea.
W e are at least secure in the k n o w le d g e that w e have here been w e l l pre
pared for this voyage.

Echoes from the Science ClubSchool is over for the day. A group o f Senior b o y s have assembled
in the classroom. A l l is quiet in the b u i ld in g except an echo from one room
in w h ich the usual coterie o f Mr. M errit t ’s del inquents are p u z z l in g over
algebra. S u d d en ly Schw abach , w h o has for ten m inutes been searching
v a in ly for his geometry in a m aze o f waste material gathered in a desk,
turns excitedly to Morgenstern.
Schwabach: “ D i d n ’t that lecture in the club last n ig h t keep y o u
a w a k e? ”M orgenstern; ‘‘A w a k e ? I ’ll say not. W h y , I w o u l d n ’t believe in
psychic ph en om en a if every desk in the room began to dance.”
Schw abach: “ B u t Mr. A l l i so n believes in the spirit w o r ld ; and a l
t h o u g h I ’ve never felt or seen a ghost , his enthusiasm last n ig h t a lm ost had
me convinced. H o n es t ly , I a lm ost fe lt as if there were an extra spirit in the
r o o m .”
M orgenstern: “Y o u w o u ld ; I t ’s all in your im aginat ion . Y o u o u g h t
to k n o w better. I th o u g h t you had the scientific p o in t o f v i e w . ”
Schwabach; “ T h a t is just the trouble. I ’ve go t the scientific p o in t o f
v iew . Sir Oliver L o d g e — he w a s a scientist. A t least, M r. A l l i s o n says
so. H e w as convinced that ghosts really do ex is t .”
M orgenstern; “ Y o u are an o ld m oss-back, a conservative. Y o u
w a n t to believe in gh os ts .”
A t this p o in t in the conversation, just as Schw abach dives a m o n g the
papers in his desk and comes up tr iu m p h a n t ly w i t h a sh ou t o f “ I have i t ,”
a rhythm ic tapp ing is heard. M orgenstern looks up. H is eyes open w ide
and his low er j a w drops.
M orgenstern; “D - d i d y o u hear tha t?”
Schw abach: “Hear w h a t ? ”
M orgenstern: “ T - t h a t t - ta p p in g .”
Schw abach; “ T h a t ’s n o th ing . T h a t ’s M iss Sm ith w a s h in g the b lack
boards .”M orgenstern; “N o - n o — it can’t be. M iss S m ith is through. It's
late. She w e n t dow nsta irs lo n g a g o .”Schw abach; “ T h e n i t ’s Sherw in gett ing his b ooks together .”
M orgenstern: “N o . S h -S h erw in w e n t h o m e an hour a g o .”
Schw abach: “ Y o u ’re scared.”
M orgenstern: “ N o , I ’m n o t .”
Schw abach; “Y o u are, too. W h y , y o u ’re sh iver ing .”
T h i r t y - f o u r -
M orgcnstern: “ I t ’s cold. T h e heat’s o f f .”
Schw abach: “Y o u can’t foo l me. If you arc not scared go into Senior
B and find out w h a t causcs that tapping. ( In the meantime the tapping
has cont inued at regular intervals, like a to m - to m that furnishes the chorus
for “ Em peror J o n e s " ) .
Morgenstern: “ Y o u g o . ’’
Schw abach: “ 1 k n ew you were scared.’’
Morgenstern: “ N o , o n ly I have a sore f o o t . ’’
Schw abach; “C o m e on. Even if it is a ghost it can ’t bite y o u . ’’
M orgenstern: “ Y o u come w i th m e .’’
Schw abach: “ A l l right. B u t I k n o w y o u ’re scared.’’
T o g e th e r they set out and very s lo w ly they make their w a y to the
Senior B room, t im id ly they open the door, and there— there they find
B all in in his shirt sleeves, and Geller similarly attired, engaged in the e n d
less, g h o s t ly game o f th r o w in g pieces o f chalk at the blackboard ledge. T h e y
are covered from head to foo t w i th chalk-dust. T h e tap-tap-tap o f the
chalk as it strikes the board g row s louder w h en the door is opened.
M orgenstern looks in, sees the chalk-covered figures, utters one long
h o w l o f despair and runs downsta irs , a r d after h im Schw abach still c lu tch
ing in his hand the geometry paper that he has rescued from his desk.

Reverie
For years the boys so dearly loved
Had faded from m y v iew ;
I little th o u g h t o f yesterday
Or o f the lads I k n e w —
Y e t to m y m ind one day there came
A vision o f the past,
A picture fon d and clearly draw n
In former v is ion cast.
T h e years had touched these boys o f mine
W it h soft and tender hand;
T o m a n h o o d g ro w n , mature in years
T h e y were a noble band.
Y e t b oy ish pranks and ch i ld h ood dreams
Still lived like Santa ’s toys,
For I, their teacher, as o f o ld
Stil l dreamed they were m y boys.
Student Council1 ho inst i tu t ion o f a Student Counci l at Franklin was adopted lasL
year, and. w h i le still yo u n g , has met w i th considerable success, w ith p r o m
ise o f more in the future. 1 his year's Council was composed o f the f o l lo w in g :
Senior A : Mil ler
Jacobson
Sperling
Senior B: Bloch
Senior C: L ew ine
Junior II; Sherw in
Junior I: M orrison
A t the first meeting, a president and secretary were chosen. M iller
was elected president and B loch secretary. Mr. H ein tze was chosen faculty
advisor and was o f great help during the year.
T h e endeavor o f the Counci l was to develop more school spirit than
had made itself evident in the past and to w o rk out the financial program
o f the student bod y , w h ich included publicat ions and athletics. T h e main
feature o f the financial program w as th? tw e lve -do l lar blanket fee to cover
all activities for the year. T h e response to this opt iona l charge was not
very heartening, and it is hoped that next year it w i l l be made ob ligatory.
T h e C ounci l made an effort to raise the disciplinary standards am o n g
the students themselves. A little more w o rk in this field w o u ld also prove a benefit.
T h e C ounci l also had charge o f the running o f the Red and B lue c o m
petit ion , in w h ich the school was divided intra-m urally for scholastic and
athletic com pet it ion th ro u g h o u t the year. T h i s was a very popular fea tur, especially a m o n g the low er grades.
A t the last mass meeting o f the year the members o f the Council were
agreeably surprised b y Mr. H all , w h o presented them w ith Student Counci l
pins, a very th o u g h t fu l gesture o f appreciation o f their efforts. T h ere is
sti ll m uch that can be accomplished at Franklin by a Student C ouncil , and
it is expected that w i th in the next f e w years this organizat ion w i l l become the m o s t w o r t h - w h i l e inst i tu t ion in the school.
Forty-threa
The Red and BlueT h i s year, because o f som e difRculty in securing the needed financial
support , o n ly t w o o f the customary four issues o f the Red and Blue were
published.
T h e school as a w h o le did not materially contribute to the support of
its official literary organ as it should have done. T h ere certainly is more
literary talent in the school than was displayed in the t w o issues o f the
Red and Blue. A s a result o f this lack o f literary contr ibut ions from m e m
bers o f the h ig h school, all the stories published were written by members
o f Senior A . T h ere were, how ever , some excellent articles by members o f
Senior B. W e nom inate t w o o f the latter, E d w ard B loch and Stanley
Geller, as next year’s editors.
Mr. Berenberg and Mr. Hall , as faculty advisors, w i t h their m an y
h e lp fu l suggest ions were really responsible for whatever success the Red
and B lue enjoyed. T h e ir unfa i l ing cheerfulness and encouragement added
m uch impetus to our efforts.
T h e staff was com posed o f the f o l lo w in g :
B. D a v id K aplan— Editor- in-chief .
J o h n M orgenstern— Associate Editor .
R o y Glickenhaus— A thlet ic Editor.
Robert K o ch — Art Editor.
E d w a r d B lo c h — E xchange Editor.
Stanley Geller— A l u m n i Editor.
J o h n A a r o n — School N e w s Editor.
It is sincerely hoped that next year w i l l see the Red and Blue restored
to its true fu n ct ion o f a representative school publicat ion , a publicat ion
to w h ic h all the literary talent o f the school w i l l w ho le -hearted ly contr i
bute its fullest and m o st enthusiastic support.

Senior PromT h e e ighth annual Senior Prom enade o f the Senior Class o f Frank-
Un Schoo l took place on April tw e l f th , at first to the accom panim ent o f
loud groans from the committee , Messrs. Miller (c h a ir m a n ) , Langer, Herz.
and Jacobson, for, frankly , th ings did not look very promising . In spite
o f a sw e l l orchestra and entertainment in the G old R o o m o f the S avoy
P laza , people suddenly remembered that there was a depression— that was
the excuse they used, at any rate. T h e members o f the senior class sh o w ed
up. and for a w h i le th ings were rather s lo w . I 'h e n suddenly came rush
hour, and w i th in that t ime ap prox im ate ly forty couples, all unexpected,
arrived. T h e affair, enlivened by the T u x e d o C lub orchestra o f Mr. H y

The Science ClubT h e Scicncc C lu b in the s ix years o f its existence has s h o w n constant
signs o f deve lopm ent . Every season marks som e im provem ent and s h o w s
increasing interest on the part o f the boys . I 'h e membership, ten in all,
w i t h an occasional guest, is com posed o f the elite o f the Senior class, and
every member in some w a y or other has s h o w n his interest and wi l l ingness
to cooperate w i t h the club. For the organ izat ion and discipl ine as well as
for m uch interesting in form at ion , w e m u st thank Mr. A l l i son w h o , a l
t h o u g h he h im se lf denies it, has been responsible for the maintenance o f
this w o r t h y organizat ion .
T h e n ew season w as ushered in on October n in th by Mr. A l l i so n ,
w h o delivered a lecture, entitled, “P h ych ic P h e n o m e n a ,” tell ing us h o w to
make tables w a lk around the room and h o w to com m unicate w i th the
spirits. U n f o r tu n a te ly none were psychic enough to give a practical d e m o n
stration. In later meetings , held at the hom es o f the various members, we
discussed a w ide variety o f topics ranging from E v o lu t io n o f M a n to the
C on q u est o f the Air. Som e o f the members even managed to illustrate
their talks w i t h m ode ls and sketches. T h e real treat o f the season was
provided b y D r. Ira Kaplan, father o f one o f the members, w h o gave an
il lustrated lecture on the subject w h ic h he has made his l i fe ’s w ork , the
prevent ion and cure o f cancer. Mr. A l l i so n in the last meeting at his hom e
b ro u g h t the season to a close a lm ost as dy n a m ica l ly as he had opened it.
A fter e x p o u n d in g to us the very complicated Einstein Rela t iv i ty T h e o r y ,

S o c c e rCoach Jesse Sobel put a light but spirited soccer team on the field this
year. T h r o u g h his d il igent coaching the boys acquired an aggressiveness
that enabled them to defeat such teams as F ie ldston , L inco ln , and Riverdale.
T h e schedule w as an except ionally difTicuU one, but neverthele s the team
mainta ined a . 5 0 0 average for the season.
T h e class o f '^5 w as the backbone ol this year’s fighting soccer team.
E ig h t o f the eleven posit ions were taken by boys from the graduating class.
Special credit shou ld be given to Captain B o b Jacobson for his spirited lead
ership, to D a v e Sperling for his bril liant defense w ork , to Ray Glickenhaus
for his remarkable w o r k defending the goal , and finally to D a v e Shapiro
for p u t t in g the ball in a scoring posit ion for his linesmen. Other members

Varsity BasketballT h e 1 9 3 5 edit ion o f the Red nnd Bhie quintet compiled w i th o u t a
d o u b t the finest record that any Franklin five in rccent years has been able
to acquire. T h e main reason for the s lo w start o f the potent ia l ly p o w e r
ful Red and Blue color bearers lies in the fact that the unified team w ork
w h ic h dist inguishes an o u ts ta n d in g quintet from a mediocre one was lack
ing. F e w o f the five starting men had played together before this year.
“ G esh ” G luck in in his first year at Franklin was knocked a bit off stride
by the vary ing styles o f his teammates: Jay Bass had not played basketball
before this eventful season: D a v e Shapiro, aw a y from Franklin last year,
also was n o t accustomed to the pecularities in the p la y in g habits o f the
rest o f the team. A s the season progressed, how ever , the boys habituated
themselves to p la y in g together; the results were very grat i fy ing to Coach
W ell in g .
T h e graduation o f the Class o f '35 leaves vacant three o f the five p o
s i t ions in the basketbal l l ineup for next year. B o th regular forwards, D ave
Shapiro and B o b Jacobson, are a m o n g those w h o received dip lomas. Jerry
G luckin , the sparkplug and h igh scorer o f the team, also w i l l be am o n g
those im m orta ls w h o have graduated from the Halls o f Franklin .

Junior Varsitur Basketball
T h ere is an o ld saying that all good th ings are inevitably given their
just reward. T h e t ime has final ly arrived w h en the Franklin Jun ior V a r
si ty Basketball T e a m has come in to its o w n . A team that has succeeded in
w in n in g seven out o f nine games certainly shou ld be applauded.
T h e Class o f '35 played a very active part in the Jun ior V arsity c a m
pa ign this year. R o y Glickenhaus, D ave Sperling, R u d y Gross, D ick
Schw abach . and E d G u tm a n all contributed to the team ’s remarkable suc
cess. Special credit shou ld be given to R o y Glickenhaus for his i n d o m
itable f ighting spirit and to D a v e Sperling for his steadiness and reliability
at all times. H arvey Scherer and Frank L o w e n h e im o f the Class o f '3 7
played a brand o f basketball that shou ld be remembered for several years
to come. T hes3 t w o lads w i l l be the backbone o f next year’s team. M el
Lipsett com bined a remarkable sh o o t in g eye w i th clever floor w ork . L ip -
S3tt is the b o y that F ie ldston is go ing to have to watch very carefully next
year. D ic k Silberstein, Stan Geller, and Maurice A braham s displayed the
spirit necessary for a w in n in g outfit.
T h e nucleus o f next year’s V arsity is in this s ta lwart J un ior Varsity .
A l t h o u g h graduation has taken a w a y a great m a n y basketball players,
there is still a w ea lth o f able material for Coach W e l l in g to develop next
season.
T h e credit for this year’s successful team shou ld be attributed to t w o
o u ts ta n d in g causes: Mr. W e l l i n g ’s spirited coaching and the remarkable
support o f the squad. One very rarely sees precision and a definite offense
in a Jun ior V ars i ty T e a m . T h i s year our squad exhibited bo th these q u a l
ities and one more, fight. A Jun ior V ars i ty Basketball T e a m w i th more
fight and o b v iou s abi l i ty than this year’s outfit has never played for
Franklin .
Swimmina
T h r o u g h the kind cooperation o f Mr. L ew in e the sw im m ers ol
F ra n k h n were given the use o f the M etropolis C lu b pool again this year.
Because o f the fact that a great m any o f the boys were on the basketbal l
teams this year, the turnout for the s w im m in g team was not as large as
Coach Sobel had anticipated. Captain R o y Glickenhaus, D a v e Shapiro,
D ic k Sel igm an, D ick Schwabach , and Ed G u tm an represented the class of
’35 in the poo l . Paul Albert , Ed Kaliski , and A n d r e w Saks made up the
remainder o f the squad.
Because o f the smallness o f the team w e had o n ly one meet this year.
T h e meet w a s held at the L in co ln School . T h e results o f the meet were
n ot very satisfactory: but everyone, including the coach, enjoyed the c o m
petit ion . Paul Albert received a first in the dives, and both D a v e Shapiro
and R o y Glickenhaus go t seconds in their events.
F rankl in has had a s w im m in g team for o n ly t w o years, but interest
in the sport is developing. N e x t year w e hope that the turnout w i l l be
larger and the results more gratify ing. A l l that Mr. Sobel needs to develop
a g o o d team is a little more support from the s tudent body.
S i x t u - s e v e n
T e n n i sW e can tru th fu l ly say this year that the tennis season has been a suc
cess in every w a y imaginable . A l l the boys had an en joyab le time, both
practicing and participating in the matches w ith rival schools . I ’he teams
succeeded in w in n in g t w o o f its five matches. L inco ln School was defeat
ed, and F ie ldston fell before the vicious play o f the Franklin netmen.
T h i s is the first year that Franklin has really taken tennis seriously.
A ll our matches were played at the R iverv iew T e n n i s C lub , our h o m e
courts: next season, however , a go o d ha lf o f our matches w i l l be played
a w a y from h om e. N e x t year's schedule w i l l be u n d ou b ted ly larger than
this year’s, and more benefit w i l l be derived from the tennis season.
Once again the Class o f '35 has made itself prom inent in the sports
o f the school. R o y G lickenhaus and D ave Shapiro played numbers one
and t w o respectively. J o h n Morgenstern played second doubles w i th
H o w a r d S lo m a n . the num ber three man, and Shapiro played first doubles
w it h Glickenhaus. T h e other members o f the squad were D ick Schwabach,
E d G u tm a n , D a v e Sperling, D ick Seligman, and Stan Geller.
In the m iddle o f the season R o y Glickenhaus, D a v e Shapiro, and
H o w i e S lo m a n journeyed to Forest H i l l s to participate in the A n n u a l P r i
vate S choo l C h a m p io n sh ip T o u r n a m e n t . U n fo r tu n a te ly all three were
el iminated early in the race for the trophy.

BaseballT h e baseball season has come and gone, leaving m an y thrills and re
membrances in its wake. A l t h o u g h the team this year was potent ia l ly
m uch better than those o f the last few years, we succeeded in w in n in g o n ly
one game. I ' h i s s h o w i n g was u n d o u b ted ly due to our difficult schedule
and to a great m an y un t im e ly errors. Such teams as Fie ldston, Barnard,
and N e w a r k Prep placed teams on the field w o r th y o f any prep school in
the v ic in ity .
O ur pitching staff consisted o f Capta in D a v e Sperling, D a v e Shapiro,
and Stan Geller. B o b Bruck and Paul Albert did the catching for the team,
Roger Merritt , Harvey Scherer, and Frank L o e w e n h e im held d o w n i m
portant pos i t ions in the infield. T h e outfield pos i t ions were taken b y Jack
Langer, R o y Glickenhaus, Ed G u tm a n , and D ick Schwabach.
T h ere are some occurrences that m a y once have seemed all important,
yet n o w are o n ly trivial. W e all remember the lo o k on Coach S obe l ’s face
w h e n he first set eyes on the N e w a r k Prep boys, or rather men. T h e n w h o
has forgotten the inn in g in w h ic h Barnard belted in seventeen runs? A n d
finally , there w as the K e w Forest game. T h a t w as one game, in w h ic h
the F rankl in team really sh o w e d just w h a t it could do. W h e n a h igh
school team makes o n ly one error and a l lo w s o n ly one hit, the team should
really be rewarded. I guess the value o f those six o ’clock m o rn in g practices
w a s s h o w n in that game.
