BY ROBERT STULBERG
Commencement exercises
marked the conclusion of the fall
semester. While the February
graduating class was relatively
small by Cass' standards, the 434
graduates comprised the largest
senior class in the city.
Having earned a disproportion-
ate number of academic distinc-
tions, the mid-year class baasted
15 merit scholarship semi-finalists,
21 Phi Beta Kappa scholars and
67 honors students.
Among the 25 students receiving
Phi Beta Kappa and highest hon-
ors were: David Black, Nancy Pol-
lock, Irving Rosenstein and Don-
ald Skupsky.
Richard Becker, Judy Bieman,
Joel Brooks, Richard Hoffman,
David Letvin and Judy Levenson
qualified for honors recognition.
Among the newly-selected edi-
tors of the school newspaper, the
Technician, are Judy Henner, man-
agement; Arlene Gorelick, fea-
ture; Marsha Klein, circulation;
Bill Levin, sports; and Robert Stul-
berg, editor-in-chief.
Undefeated in six debates and
unequaled in total individual
speaker points, the Cass varsity
debate team won the IL of M. In-
vitational Tournament for the sec-
ond consecutive year, on Jan. 15.
'Defending the affirmative was
the team of 'Dwight Alpern and
Alvin Sallen. Michele Donigian
and Robert Stulberg supported the
negative.
With a final victory over Mum-
ford on Jan. 6, the team completed
a perfect 12-0 season in the Metro-
politan Debate League.
J. B., Archibald MacLeish's
Pulitzer prize-winning drama, will
be presented by the students and
faculty Feb. 10, 11, 12.

cians downed Chadsey 68-36 and

the lives of Soviet and American
teens. He was favorably greeted,
by the usually rambunctious 2,100
students, as the auditorium was
completely attentive during his
dissertation.
When asked to comment on the
problem of anti-Semitism, by this
writer, Shiraef told how religion
is being deemphasized in the So-
viet Union, the elderly remaining
the basic force still holding to
belief in the Scriptures. He stated
that the Soviet government is
afraid of the Jews, because their
intelligence and worldliness is a
potential danger to the dictatorial

of an experience where he ran

Russia's Jewry was based upon his
belief that it's the only way for
the Communists to rid themselves
of the "Jewish problem."
Shiraef predicted closer ties be-
tween the U.S. and Russia, stating
that the "split between China and
Russia is something to beware
of," and that this is one thing that
will draw the Soviets to Capital-
ism.

That same week, Groves' sociol-

a self-taught hypnotist. His pre-
sentation, which included the
hypnotizing of four Groves stu-
dents, was an example of how the

co-operate with the commands of
another person.
