On the brink . . . he stood,
with only the dreams of
the cities, the million hooks,
the spectral images of the
people he had loved, who had
loved him, whom he had
known and lost. They will
not come hack again.
They never will come hack. \o iN'j

“Still pleased to teach and
yet not proud to know "
DR. M. SPAHN
I consider an human soul without
an education like marble in the
quarry which shows none of its
inherent beauties till the skill of
the polisher filches out the color, makes the surface shine and dis
covers every ornamental cloud,
spot and vein that runs through the body of it.

For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight;
His can’t be wrong whose life is in the right.

We, the graduating class of 1965, have memorable recollections of our high school days at Franklin. We have grown older with the school and are assured that this aging process was one of educational and social development.
Our primary thoughts are scholastic and concern themselves mostly with the work of the teachers. Those extra hours they spent and the talks they were ready to have will not be forgotten. We worked with them and when we rebelled against them and all study, they persisted. We are now confident of being prepared for the future and thus, the true reapers of rewards.
As we pass on to more advanced levels of learning, we shall remember the friendships we have established in our years at Franklin. Many
of us secured close and meaningful relationships. I am confident that these links, although they will be separated by distance and time, will never themselves be broken.
Our alma mater has meant and always will mean much to us. Unfortunately, the human tendency is to take things for granted. Hence, our appreciation for our training grounds will not blossom until later, but it is inevitable that as we mature we shall learn to appreciate all that we gained at Franklin.
Franklin has played its part well and as alumni we will try to help it in this roll with others.
I express gratitude and appreciation to my class and admonish them not to break the links.

“Honor lies in honors toil.”
The National
Honor Society
Since its inception in 1958, membership in The National Honor Society has grown remarkably due to the quality of Franklin’s students. It is limited to only those students with scholastic achievements who also, in the opinion of the faculty have demonstrated high rank in character, discipline, service and loyalty. We salute our elite!

The
Forcnsic Society
Once again our debaters very successfully represented
Franklin both in the United States and in Canada. Salomon, Schonbach, and Harris were honored with awards in Canada,
Singer in Philadelphia and Goldberg in New York. Florman
was seen nationally on television and many of the debaters
were heard on the radio. Franklin was host several times for
model United Nations this year. How could we ask for
more?

The Student Council
From election time to the closing of school, the 1964-65 student council proved
to be one of the most active in recent years. Through its efforts a junior varsity
basketball team was organized, successful dances were held with more frequency
than ever, and a newspaper was issued. In addition, decals and G.O. cards were
sold, and fund drives for charity were instituted. We thank our representatives for
a great year.

Clubs
“An assembly of good fellows, meeting
together under certain conditions”
—S. Johnson
The Art Club was formed in order to bring beauty and concepts of art to its members. The students in the club have found that with the guidance of a skUled artist, Mrs. Weingarten, they have been able to grasp some of the beauty that is offered to them as members, and are able to record what they see and learn with charcoal and water colors.
The Chess Club
The 1964-65 Chess Club has provided entertainment and relaxation for all members. Its combination of strategy and competitiveness has drawn the club’s members into a bond of loyal spirit.
59
The French Club
This year the French Club, under the supervision of Mr. Pierotti, was one of the most active clubs in Franklin. They went to several museums, listened to French records and even had a picnic. All of the members showed enthusiasm and interest.
The Math Club
A group of interested Math students gather every Friday afternoon to listen to and give interesting reports. The reports have run the gamut from discoveries of famous Mathematical fallacies to the completion of a simple computer. The students are under the very capable and expert supervision of Mr. Stevens.
61
The Poetry Club
The literary talent of our school as well as those who are interested in deriving the aesthetic pleasures of poetry have spent many rewarding hours this year in the Poetry Club. This is the first year Franklin has had a club of this sort and we hope that it will continue.
Science Club
One of the largest student groups of Franklin IS the Science Club where Franklin’s young scientists put their energy and resources together for mutual enjoyment and in hope that eventually heir experiments will contribute to the well-being
or our future. ^
The Varsity Club
All students with two or more varsity letters were permitted to join the Varsity Club headed by Mr. Berman. The club has tried their hardest to spread the school spirit which they all possess throughout the rest of the student body. They have definitely been successful because we had almost 100% attendance at the Madison Square Garden game.

This season brought two rousing victories to the Franklin soccer team. Throughout the season the whole team displayed spirit which continued to the very last second of every game. The real highlight of the soccer season came however, when Mark Nestler scored four goals, breaking the school record of number of goals scored by one player in a game.

Varsity Basketball
December 4, 1964 was the beginning of our Basketball season which was both successful and rewarding. We finished third in the league with a 7-5 record and an 8-9 overall record. The highlight of the season was our aimual game at Madison Square Garden.
In the spotlight this season were Malcolm Spaull, Mark Nestler and Joel Sheriff. This year our team was represented in the all star game and we received two honorable mentions for the all-state team. A league record was also set this year when we defeated Walden 102-57.

A Look Into The Future
The significance of a class prophecy is that within the humor satire there must be contained a certain modicum of truth. Therefore, let us look into the future 10 years hence:

Franklin Graduation
Guest Speaker
David Shiverivh Smith, Associate Dean of the School of International Affairs, spoke at the Graduation Exercises of the Franklin class of 1965.
This qualified educator is a member of the Bar of New York, Connecticut, District of Columbia, and the United States Supreme Court. His vast fund of knowledge not only from his formal education at Dartmouth (Magna Cum Laude) and Columbia (Phi Beta Kappa) but from his involvement as Director of Foreign Policy Association, Advisory and Contributing Editor of “Journal of International Affairs”, member of the Advisory Council of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and Member of the Advisory Council of the School of Advanced International Studies.
We were pleased and honored to have so distinguished a guest speaker and we will long remember his vitality and the wisdom of his philosophy.
Epilogue
The red doors have closed behind us.
We are displaced from the warmth, comfort and
assurance of that which we knew in order to embark
on the unknown.
With uncertain steps and quivering hand we will
open a new door.
