A unique event took place at the dedication exercises when two boys who never got their elementary school diplomas received them 60 years later when special diplomas were created for Smith and Dale. two theater greats who met there but who never had a chance to finish an elementary school. Under the leadership of Aaron Fishman acting as the chairman of the Dedications Committee. the alumni were determined to make a show case of this school restored. and an object lesson of the original school where they had learned brotherhood and democracy. They commissioned the American artist Lumen Martin Winter to design a large mosaic mural which would tell the story of their immigrant forebears who began a wonderful era of rearing famous Americans. The marble walls were adorned with the legends of great Americans and uncannily on one wall there were joined Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. even before the time when they would forever be coupled in history.
