The Graduating Class

FRANKLIN SCHOOL18 West 89th Street New York 24, N. Y.

The dedication of the School Annual is the main way a Senior Class can express its appre­ciation to an invaluable teacher and, in this case, to an admired friend. The Class of 1963 wishes to thank Mr. Nathaniel H. Stevens for his in­spired guidance.

Born in Philadelphia, Mr. Stevens has attended Columbia University, Yeshiva University, New York University and the University of Cologne. He has also done research work at the Crocker Institute of Cancer Research, and has been a consultant for the mathematics curriculum at various independent schools. He has published an article on the Theory of Relativity.

Mr. Stevens is married, has a son and daugh­ter, and lives in Upper Manhattan. His interests are varied, with music heading the list.

Thank you, Mr. Stevens, for service “above and beyond the call of ”

President

Mr. S. King, Dr. M. C. Spahn, Dr. A. Neale.

I shall remember the Class of 1963 with

deep affection, for it was the most co­

operative senior class I have known in

Franklin. We gave you more responsibility

than any seniors had previously had, and

many of you accepted it easily. We of the

faculty will recall with gratitude the way

you took over the study halls. It may be

years before we can find seniors to do this

again. The world can do with good re­

sponsible citizens as you have shown signs

of being.

God bless you all.

Principal

Twenty-five years ago, in the Franklin Year­

book, an illustrious American, Benjamin Frank­

lin, was quoted. I was deeply moved by his

message and sincerely hope that it will guide

you as it has me.

“The idea of what is true merit should also

often be presented to youth, explained and

impressed on their minds, as consisting in an

inclination, joined with an ability, to serve

mankind, one’s country, friends and family;

which ability is, with the blessing of God, to

be acquired or greatly increased by true learn­

ing; and should, indeed, be the great aim and

end of all learning.”

I have enjoyed my association with you

through the years and cherish many happy mem­

ories. I wish you well.

THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT

This Department offers the most im­portant single subject in Franklin. The average student spends nine periods a week with grammar, composition, vo­cabulary, literature and public speaking. Besides preparation for these classes, the students spend many hours preparing for book reviews. Advanced Placement courses are offered to qualified students.

MRS. MARTHA WEINGARTEN

MR. DAVID GRIFFIN

MR. NATHANIEL H. STEVENS Chairman

THE MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT

An Advanced Placement course was offered to qualified students this year. In addition, the entire high school was placed on the “two-track” system. Under this method the students indicating an affinity for math are placed in one sec­tion, and the others have a course more geared to their needs.

MR. DAVID BERMAN

MR. ERIC CARSON Chairman

THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT

Smells of chemicals in the upper floors emanate from this department. The tra­ditional four-year course is offered, al­though only the first two years are re­quired. An alternative, Modern Physical Science, is also offered to Juniors and Seniors. This year a miniature labora­tory was established in Room 4.

THE SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT

The Social Sciences are required of all students for the first three years of high school. Seniors are given a choice of three courses, with the majority taking at least one. Each student is “given the opportunity to be well-informed in one aspect of his course.” This, of course, re­fers to the term paper, the writing of which can be an experience or a night­mare.

THE LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT

The variety of offerings in this department was com­mended in our recent evaluation. Franklin offers four years of French, Spanish, Latin and three years of Russian. Stu­dents study such authors as Montaigne, Camus, Gogol, Chekov, Horace and Cicero in the original versions, thereby gaining more understanding of the culture than if they read the translations.

MR. DAVID BERMAN

DR. R. J. ELLIOTT Music and Art

MR. WILLIAM WELLS Typing

Several academic aspects of the School’s program do not fit into established departments. One of them, Drivers Education, meets after school, and includes practice driv­ing as well as class work. Typing courses meet twice a week in Room 12. This year the Library has been com­pletely overhauled, with thousands of books thrown out, and other thousands of new books now line the shelves.

Franklin Negative with Mochlands, Canada.

Another successful year! That is the

least one can say about our speech rec­

ord for 1962-1963. Chosen the outstand­

ing school at our first Debate Workshop,

our first Youth Conference and at sev­

eral Model United Nations, we also won

tournaments in various upstate schools.

Our Freshman Debaters took third place

in the state tournament while our Var­

sity tied for second place in the First

International High School Debate Tour­

nament in Montreal, Canada. Individu­

ally our speakers received nearly thirty

certificates of commendation, several

medals, a trophy, nominations as dele­

gates to an International Youth Forum,

and to the National Forensic Conven­

tion. Franklin also provided chairmen

for more than thirty sessions in eight different schools.

This year, at the request of the New

York State Historical Association, we or­

ganized the Franklin Yorker Chapter, a

junior version of the adult group. Mem­

bership is limited to superior students in

the field of history, and membership in­

cludes a pin, card and a year’s subscrip­

tion to The Yorker, junior history maga­

zine. Membership also entitles one to

free admision to the various museums

sponsored by the Association. Organized

late in the year, the Chapter has been

inactive. However, plans are being made

to participate in state-wide activities

next year.

Franklin ClubsThe importance of the club program was lim­

ited this year, for several reasons. First, we were fortunate in having Mr. Irving Gelber, noted musician, give a long series of Music Apprecia­tion classes; second, clubs were to meet every two weeks in place of weekly; third, the High School was split into two sections for clubs; and finally, too many club periods fell during vaca­tions. Despite this, many of the usual activities were kept up. The Math Club continued to eat while playing mathematical games (and paying dues so that they could donate several books to the library). The Science Club experimented, the Art Club sketched, the Theater Club talked, the Language Clubs studied and the Debaters debated.

Franklin PublicationsUnder the direction of the above editors, and

with the advice of advisors Mrs. Youman and Dr. Elliott, Franklin has a variety of publications. The Franklin Press periodically presents the events of the school year which are of interest to the stu­dents. Supplementing it is The Apogee, a student paper issued by senior class members. The Red and Blue is the annual literary magazine. Then there is the book you are reading now. The Frank- linite, school yearbook, the permanent record of our ninety-first year.

To supplement these publications several clubs have issued newspapers, in mimeographed form,

ly the Science and Math Clubs.

Treasurer Dickstein, President Reifer, Vice- President Kahn, Secretary Patricoff.

President Reifer delivers his campaign speech.

Completion of a new constitution, the sale of Student Organization cards and the delivering of many resolutions to the School Administration constituted much of the work during the year. A model Council meeting was held during the evaluation. Successful drives were held for vari­ous medical causes. In addition, campaigns were conducted to secure used books and clothes for the needy.

The dance committee arranged for four very successful dances.

23

School DancesUnder the supervision of the Student

Council, a Dance Committee, composed of Ellen Kohn, Carol Sondheimer, Steven Dickstein, Earl Nemser and Norman Godnick, held four successful dances during the year. They were held alter­nately in the Hotel Cameron and in the school gymnasium. Mr. O’Hanlon served as the faculty advisor, and the Parents’ Association provided additional chape­rones.

PODUNK JUNIOR COLLEGE PODUNK, IOWA

April 15, 1963

Dear High School Senior,

We regret to inform you that your application for admission has not been acted upon favorably. The Committee on Admissions has not been able to decide just why you bothered to apply in the first place. As you undoubtedly reahze, your high school average is 38 points below our minimum standards. Your college board scores (V. 209, M. 198) are also insufficient to meet our require­ments.

However, we are taking into consideration the fact that this year you have shown a marked improvement by increasing your average from 59.9 to 60. This vast increase has enabled us to place your name on the waiting list for our waiting list. We hope that this will be an inspiration to you to continue the fine work which you are doing.

Sincerely,

Third Assistant to the Janitor, the Dean’s Office

The Senior PromThis year, the Senior Prom was held in

the Crystal Room of the Savoy-Plaza hotel. Many Seniors attended pre-prom parties, and by nine o’clock they had all reached the lavish surroundings of the hotel. The Seniors and their guests enjoyed a buffet dinner, dancing, and in all a very fine time. However that phase of the prom ended and soon all had left to attend after-the-prom parties or just spent the night on the town. As the sun rose that morning all the Seniors were on their way home after a most suc­cessful prom.

Graduation Exercises THE CLASS OF 1963

Dr. Buell Gallegher, seventh president of City Col­lege, spoke to the 23 girls and 26 boys who make up the Graduating Class of 1963. Student speakers in­cluded Edward Cohen, Ellen Kohn, Terry Williams and Carol Sondheimer.

The featured speaker remarked that graduation was always a challenge to students, but that rarely in his­tory had such a challenge been given to students as today. Dr. Gallegher is particularly equipped to point this out since he has served as Assistant Commissioner for Higher Education in the United States. He is the author of many books on education and on racial issues, and, after work at Union Theological Seminary, received his doctorate from Columbia University.
