0 There is no more popular sport than swimming and there is no more popular activity at the Jewish Community Center Day Camp than swimming in the large pool at Peony Park. Special roped-off areas are utilized by the Day Campers in their instructional and recreational swimming while special wading pools are used by the •k petite preschool campers. Parentr, can be confident their children are well supervised in the water activities at the Day Camp, Harry Sidman, Center Chairman, stated, as all aquatic activities are under the supervision of a well trained and experienced certified Red Cross Water Safety Instructor. Besides the Instructor's two assistants, the counselors and junior counselors accompany each group into the pool. This means, Sidman said, that there is one adult supervising every three children in the water. With this high ratio of counselors to Day Campers, children quickly progress from getting adjusted to the water to developing advanced swimming skills. Swimming is a daily activity for Day Campers who also participate in over 20 other activities and special programs. With interest being high in this season's summer activities provided by the Center, the Day Camp is expected to have a capacity registration. A staff of over 25, insuring adequate supervision at all times, supervises the intimate Day Camp cabin groups. With registrations being submitted at a record pace, parents are reminded, Sidman commented, to enroll their children to insure them a place in this summer's program. Registration is by'mail application to the Center's Camp Office. SEASON DATES AND IMTES 1st Session—Juno 18-June 29 —Fee $35.

Warning by J.F.K/S Brd'her in Case of Arab Attack on Israel Montreal—An Arab attack upon Israel would be regarded by the United Stater, Government in a similar way to an attack upon Berlin, declared Mr. Ted Kennedy, the youngest brother of President Kennedy, at a dinner given here to honour Mr. Samuel Bronfman, the Canadian Jewish leader. "We have not hesitated to take a stand on Berlin, and we would not hesitate to take a stand on Israel," said Mr. Kennedy. "Nasser has dedicated himself to the destruction of Israel. He shall not succeed. Israel is a model for underdeveloped countries who can see there what can be accomplished in building cities from desert and gardens from waste lands." —(J.T.A.)
Prayer in Scfioais Washington (JTA)—The United States Supreme Court has been asked for the second time in its current session to rule on the constitutionality of a local public school board regulation —this one in Maryland—requiring a daily prayer as part of the classroom opening exercises. The High Tribunal was petitioned this week to rule on a decision handed down last month by the Maryland Court of Appeals, upholding the Baltimore School Board's Biblereading requirement. The Maryland court ruled four to three that the exercise, which also includes recitation of the Lord's Prayer, did not violate the constitution.
