and ZEV NADLER
The yeshivah library is
rapidly expanding. At pres-
ent it has approximately
2,500 paperback books in ad-
dition to the many hard-cover
volumes.
There are books on the
various sciences, history, po-
litical science, geography,
the English language, foreign
language, and many other
subjects. For the casual
reader there are books of
fiction and mysteries. The
library also has books for
the small children in grades
one through six.
Last week the library
added a tape recorder and
cassettes that tell the listen-
ers about past presidents of
the United States and about
great inventors. Mrs. Josephs
and Mrs. Mendelson are the
head librarians.
Every Thursday night the
yeshiva has a mishm or .
Mishmor means to guard
and the learning is guarded
so that it does not escape
from the students. • At 5:40
p.m. all students from grades
seven and up have a supper
in the lunchroom. During the
meal Rabbi Freedman asks
the students questions per-
taining to the parsha of the
week in order to uphold the
commandment of holding a
Torah discussion during a
meal.
After the meal the children
go with their respective
rabbis and they study until
8 p.m. At 8 the students have
a Maariv service which is
followed by a game.
The administration intro-
duced an addition to the
present Mesifta program.
In the morning after the
Shacharit service the Mesifta
students study "Ethnics,"
followed by a breakfast. The
students then continue with
their Hebrew studies. The
students then follow their
normal schedule and have
their regular English classes.
At 3:10 p.m. the students
interrupt this schedule for a
Minha service.
Following M i n h a Rabbi
Liebeman, our dean, always
gives a short talk on the
parsha of the week. Then
the students return to class.

According to Faye Jansky,
