Congratulations go out to senior

student of OPHS class of '67 to
be accepted by the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. The two
other Oak Park students are Mar-

It seems that Oak Park is des-
tined to be known as the "record
capital of mid-northwest Detroit,"
as another group from OPHS has
released a hit record. The "Trade-
marks" recording for Palmer rec-
ords have just released their first
record entitled "I Need You (by
my side)." The record was written
by sophomore Niel Faigenbaum
and senior Alan Nathanson. Their
manager Ed Kaplan also helped
in the writing of the song. The
group has been appearing on
CKLW's "Swinging Time" show.
