A careful selection has been made by the director who has selected some of the best voices in the city to take part. The operetta is a new undertaking for the Omaha Y and, because of the success the members have made of the Y annual shows, this operetta is being presented for the public's approval. It will be staged at the Moose Hall, Twenty-eighth and Farnam streets. • All participants in the operetta will be dressed in old Dutch costumes, which make t i e very quaint picture of the presentation.

The burning of the mortgage of the Beth Hamedrcsh Hagodol Synagogue will take place on the Synagogue grounds at Nineteenth and Burt streets, Monday evening, May 11, at eight o'clock. The congregation was first organized forty years ago and was then known as Beth Israel Synagogue with the first place of worship located at Twelfth and Jackson streets. Later the Synagogue moved to Thirteenth and Williams and sometime later built a small Synagogue on Thirteenth and Pierce. Mr. Moses Hurwitz of South Omaha and Mr. Jake Kendis of Los Angeles, Calif., are the two members living who were the first organizers of this congregation. The present Synagogue building was erected thirteen years ago when Mr. Michael Kulakofsky was president. At that time the name of the congregation was changed to Beth Hamedrosh Hagodol Synagogue. The Beth Hamedrosh Hagodol Synagogue now has a membership of more than one hundred and twenty members. The Synagogue building is valued at more than $35,000. The congregation also owns the Beth Hamedrosh cemetery. Mr. M. Gross, who for a number of years has been president of the congregation, has been an untiring worker in building up the congregation. Mr. A. G. Weinstein is now president of the Synagogue.

Another characteristic* of. the once great Rubinstein was that he- absolutely ignored the accepted and tfmetried opening moves. "He would never answer a certain opening : by -the usual defense. From the'beginning Rubinstein would bewilder hi^' adversary by an unorthodox' move, "thus forcing his opponnt to revise his theory, and play -without being able; to draw' from previouus experience, i Rubinstein in this Baden-Baden tournament is an entirely different player. He does not show the same daring against strong opponents; he is ^satisfied to play a safe game. At this date he has very little chance to overtake the leader; and we are in formed that the chess experts of Eu rope consider the once mighty a has been. True, he is still a first-class player, but not the most feared tour nament player of this time. Will Rubinstein come back?

Some more information concerning Jewish. sehool-boy athletes .comes to us from a Homestead correspondent His letter reads: "Dear Sir: "I am very much interested in your column, especially the items concerning the prowess of Jewish school boy athletes in American institutions. Hre is some more news for.that column. Homestead"High Scchoo], which has always rated among the leaders ia W. P. I. A. L. athletics, boasts of a few'Jewish athletes. Its football team had three Jewish..members: Samuel fiepps, captain and veteran guard for three years; William Keiz len, stellar 190-pound tackle, and Harry .Widom, student manager. The first mentioned Hepps, though small in stature, is one of the most formidable defense men: that has ever played for a steel city aggregation. He was also a member of tKe two championship basketball teams o f 1923 and 1924, making thb trip to Chicago in quest of the national championship. Widom is also a member of the varsity tennis squad.

There is -no other Jewish organization in America and perhaps in the world that has such a tradition.

Cohen, President of the Hebrew Union College, and Henry Monsky, thirty-six ye.-3r old ardent worker, who, realizing the all engaging character of an office like the presidency of the B'nai B'rith, was ready to sacrifice his own career to the work of the Order. Even the newly elected president has, as we understand, expressed his readiness to transfer his residence to New York or Chicago if the work of the Order -would require it.
