In addition to addresses by former members, the reunion was addressed by Samuel Hey- man and Philip Slomovitz, for- mer leaders of the club. Nathan Zack was selected sec- retary of the reunited group, Among those who reminisced at the gathering were Sol Slomo- vitz, Louis Zack, Julius Kabat- sky, Sam Firestone, Nathan Zack, Morris Waxman, Aaron Lippin, David Cooper, Arthur Robbins, Morris Sills, Alan Sloan and Dr. Alfred Honigman.
