Many College Students Ignorant of Judaism-Social Action Relationship A study conducted among Hillcl Foundation directors at 5!) major American universities disclosed that undergraduates today show "far more concern" lor social and political problems than did the campus group o[ a decade ago, but not many associate Jewish values with these interests. The fact that few colic-Re students consciously lind any religious motivation for their involvement in social action issues was viewed by Joseph L. Paradise, of New York, vice-chairman of the Hillel Commission, as "a serious failing on the part of religious institutions." He "said that civil rights activists and youth wording against poverty and illiteracy have yet to learn thai they are fulfilling the Jewish tradition. Dr. Alfred Jospe, director of programs and resources for the Hillel Foundations, declared that the Jewish community, in its religious and educational institutions, "has not succeeded in creating in the minds of young Jews the image of a Judaism that has something important to contribute to their search for spiritual dignity and moral significance." President Label A. Katz of B'nai B'rilh warned against ''looking into the wrong end of the telescope and assuming that the problem of relating religious relevance to contemporary problems can begin at the college level. He said that "a sophisticated awareness of Judaism needs to be initiated through more intensive Jewish education in the early formative years of Jewish youth."

YOUTH COUNCIL "ACTIVITY" A number of people have
Ken copits, iiiitl uilitrrs liuvtasked for copies of a letter I wiute on December li. 1S54 addressed to Mr. Dik Werner, Youtli Activities Director of the Jewish Community. Center. It would be without purpose to reprint my letter, but as a matter of public information, it may be jn point to give the gist of it arid the reasons for writing it. In the first place, allhouRh addressed to Mr. Weiner. it was not meant to criticize him or any other individual. Basically it commented on the Youth Council in particular and the Jewish community in general, in lheir relation to" Judaism and the synagogue. My letter called attention specifically to the Youth Council Thanksgiving Service on November 25, 1MM which was. I Jim told, well attended mid well conducted, f objected seriously, however, to the extremely irreverent allilmte which I am told cur youn;; people displayed in a Synagogue Sanctuary, to the thoddy and irreverent handling cf the Hebrew passages mimco'd for the service. ;ind the s h o c k i n g misinformation involved in planning the .service. These observations about the Youth Council service led to my general remark that Youth C o u n c i l approaches services only as a Youth Council "activity," and not as religious worship: and that Youth Council and other departments of the F e d e r a t i o n consistently and s t u b b o r n l y refuse to avail themselves 'of' religious counsel, even where this counsel is indicated and relevant. This is, of course, no new story in our community, and.it can lie massively documented. My letter simply put into words what should be well known in the community, since it is so very eb'vious. It is my. hope that just as my letter brought me many messages of commendation, it may also iead to discussion among the young people and their leaders with a view to strengthening . and improving the religious and cultural tone of our community. | • Rabbi Myer S.

Imle towards inter faith marriage. The essential point, given in his iirsi paragrapii has gone totally unanswered, that the appeal to statistics on jnterlaith marriage failures is not in itself a good argument against inter-faith marriage. The p r o b 1 e in of interfaith marriage is indeed a serious one from the standpoint of the continuation of Judaism. I would' suggest that we keep in mind that interfaith m a r r i a g e is more a "symptom"' than a cause of the frightening decline of the Judaic spirit, ;md that if our religion is to continue, we require an imaginative reappraisal both as regards Judaism and the value of religious faith in general, and not the sometimes vapid comments of a certain group of people who a t t e n d synagogue once or twice yearly with sleepy ears. . Douglas Platt Student of Philosophy Stanford University P.S. I earnestly request that you print my letter in toto. I. believe its polemical character should \y welcomed as a good sign that the Jewish Press can become a forum for argument and thought. The respect for argument is of course part of the essence of our Jewish cultural heritage. For this reason I hope you will meet the challenge of publishing, w i t h o u t deletions, my letter.
