DR. M. C. SPAHN, Headmaster
Dear Seniors,You w ill be required to be intellectually and ethically tougher, better disciplined and more
determined in your activities than graduates of the previous decades.The technological revolution has reached the distant corners ot the globe and beyond.
Every country is enthusiastically seeking and demanding a share ot the scarce resources ot our "shrinking" planet. Competition between individuals and nations is as tierce as at any time in history. Your "survival" demands that you equip yourselves to be as enterprising as
the better educated ot other lands.The path you must tollow is a difficult one. The pleasure oriented society of mid-twentieth
century America must give way to a simpler, more confident and better educated society.I wish you every success in meeting this challenge.
With warm regards,
M. C. SPAHN, Headmasfer6

VARSITY SOCCER
Franklin's Soccer team was out
standing—perhaps the best ever! The
team was coached by Mr. Reynolds
a n d M r. U n d e rw o o d , and disci
plined by tyrannical Captain Paul
O'Brien. They finished one half game
out of a p lay-off spot with a crucial
match under protest.

Franklin Captures A.C.I.S. Title!
It has been four long years since Franklin's Basketball Team has battled so ferociously for our c o n fe re n c e championship, but this year our boys brought it home g r a c e f u l l y . Their playoff rivals were defending champions, Dwight, and powerful favorite, Baldwin. Captain Randolph Garcia received not only the team trophy, but also a rather impressive M.V.P. award for his role in Franklin's triumph. Sam Lee, a great newcomer to the team was named a member of the league All-Star team. Both playoff victories were by one basket margins, and both marked the climax of Franklin Basketball excitement in its one hundred and three year history.
Next year's squad w ill be packed with stars from this young team. Sam Lee, Hector "Mousey" Navarro, Jesus Ruiz, Bobby McClelland, and Victor Hicks are all returning super-stars, who have developed a deadly ap petite for victory that should create a new d y n a s t y in the conference's future.
CHEERLEADERS
WRESTLING
iI
W hile the Franklin wrestlers worked long and hard to toughen up and learn dazzling moves, the coaches: Mr. Underwood and Mr. Pennington worked longer hours and harder to try and fin'd them a league. No schools are in our A.C.I.S. fie ld Wrestling Teams, so we've had to look elsewhere. The last resort is any empty subway station, where our intrepid stars can become vigilantes to curtail subway crime. Perhaps the realization of this a lternative was the factor that cut down practice attendance recently.

STUDENT COUNCIL
The Audio-Visual squad, headed by Mr.
Sin and consisting of three capable sopho
mores, has been making good use of Frank
lin's many and varied A. V. facilities. These
include the projectors, televisions and record
ers. There are many informative films and re
cordings to choose from, which span almost all
areas of education. In the words of one of
Mr. Sin's projectionists, "W e're here to serve
Franklin School with new and interesting ma
terial in the category of media."
The student council was active
again this year working on tradition

outlets for student involvement.

INTRAMURALSThis season was a boon tor
Franklin Lower School Intramu
rals. Boys and girls formed d if
ferent l e a g u e s and standings
were maintained in both.
The male division reached a
competitive climax in basketball.
Teams were fielded by teachers
Mrs. Naylor, Mr. Dordick, Mr.
Pennington, and Mr. Steren-
berg, whose champion Buffalo
Braves swept the association.
League rules provide tha i ev
ery player must clock time in
both halves, and that each team
must mix s ix th, seventh and
eighth graders on its roster.
Unique situations are common
place in Intramural ball. In a
year of precedents, no one will
easily forget the "drop ball" be
tween D ou g Basset and John
Deutsch. The ball was dropped
from the towering heights of the
referee's shoulders to floor level,
where each man had a chance
to swat at it.
