New York (JTA)—A group of 35 11 and 12-year-old girls and boys from Public School in the Bronx have been spending two hours a week with the residents of the nearby Kingsbridge House. They have been playing games with the elderly Jews, reading to them, and joining in song and dance programs; The program, which has been in operation for two months and is coming to a close at the end of the school year this month,has been so successful that plans are being made to create a permanent service with volunteers from nearby "public schools, according to Mrs. Clare Kagell, director of recreation at the home. The facility is a member agency of the New York Federation of Jewish Philanthropies. The originator of Uie idea is Stan Joselle, principal at P.S. 122. Since its inception, the program has been directed by the Kingsbridge House recreation and volunteer staff. Mrs. Dora Dimm, 78, spoke for many of the residents when she said "I have no grandchildren of my own so this is an opportunity for me to see what it*s_ like to have grandchildren. Most of us get lonely here at one time'or another."

Brandeis U. Professor Notes Jewish Identify Renaissance New York (JTA) - Disillusionment with American life, the threat to Israel's survival, the plight of Soviet Jews and a fear of future anti-Semitism In this country are factors curi rently contributing to a renaisi sance of Jewish identify among i American Jews. This assess• ment was presented by Bran• deis University Prof. Leonard J. Fein, in a speech he delivered at a Theodor Herzl Institute Conference on "Social Psychology and Jewish Life'." Discussing the "Soclo-psychological structure of the American Jewish community," Prof. Fein said that a study he recently conducted of Jews in Boston, as well as other observations he has made, indicates that the character of the American Jewish experience may be changing sharply. He said that those affected will be American Jews who might oth-. erwise have remained "inertial ethnics . . . who lumber along through life and through Judaism without much consciousness of self." The appeal of modernity in general and of contemporary American secularism in particular is declining. Prof. Fein said. This "has forced people to begin to examine other alternatives." The most important alternative, he a d d e d , " h a s been offered by the revolution of black consciousness." Older Jews have been surprised by the active Jewish identification of younger Jews.

"The present generation of young activist Jews was not supposed to have been possible," Prof,/Fein said. He noted that as A m ? r ' c a n Jews, "we are learning tliat Uie legitimate Interests of others may be in conflict and . . . we may have to engage in tough bargaining to protect ourselves and our position. "Not so long ago," he said, "it appeared that Judaism in America was oriented merely around nostalgia, that Jewish history had for all practical purposes come to an end . . . But the continuing peril of Israel and the miraculous resurgence of Soviet Jewry, and perhaps even, though less dramatically, the apparent" reawakening of anti-Semitism in the United States "have once again made it both interesting to be a Jew and somewhat dishonorable not to be." The Brandeis professor said "there is more c o n s e n s u s around the statement that antiSemitism may emerge as a problem for American Jews than any other single statement of Jewish American conviction." Prof. Fein concluded that a community which seeks to "face its tensions rather than . . . flee from them" will have to devise a mode of conduct and a system of Jewish education that will seek to promote and encourage the emergence of a new and more confident Jew."

Soviet Build-Up In Mediterranean

New Housing for Old Immigrants

W a s h i n g t o n (JTA)-The growth of Soviet naval power in the Mediterranean is being stressed by high ranking naval oficers here who claim that by next year the United Stales would not be in a position to "face down" the Soviet Union should a new war develop in the Middle East. According to the officers, if a new Mideast war breaks out in mid-1972, they would have to advise the President on purely military grounds to let Israel be overrun by a joint Soviet-Egyptian attack. They noted that the Soviets now have naval bases in Egypt and Syria while the U. S. has lost all of its bases in the Middle East. Moreover, they claimed, the Sixth Fleet was smaller and older than in the past compared to the rapidly growing Soviet naval squadron in t h e Mediterranean. Observers here tend to view their pessimistic prognostications as a familiar ploy to extract larger appropriations from Congress. But there was no denying that Soviet sea power is building up rapidly in the Mediterranean and elsewhere and Moscow is making no secret of the build-up. Tass, the Soviet news agency, reporting on the weekend visit to the Soviet Mediterranean fleet by Defense Minister Andrei Grcchko and Adm. Sergei G. Gorshkov, commander-in-chief of the Russian Navy. They w e r e accompanied by high ranking government and Communist Party o f f i c i a l s . More significant than the visit, according to observers, was the decision to give it maximum publicity. The decision seemed to emphasize the Soviet Union's desire to convey to the U. S. and to Israel that a powerful Soviet military-naval presence is now a permanent factor in the Eastern Mediterranean.

Senators View Israel Aid McCarthy Pro I f atfileM A n i l AN ANSWER FOR MRS. WOLFE ' Ever since the article appeared in the Press by Mrs. Wolfe, I have longed to answer. I do not recall the entire story, but the general theme remains Jn my mind. I can only reply to her statements abouftoday's youth from my own experience, and I will share it with you. I have two sons—young men I am very proud of and a daughter we are equally proud of. Yes, they have long hair. Yes, they like the loud music and singing. But they are still the fine boys I have hoped they would be. I have always felt that so long as the heads are clear on the Inside what does it matter how they adorn themselves on the outside! I was recently hospitalized and It was Indeed a trying time for me—the consideration and thoughlfulness shown me by my own children and even more 10 by their friends was of great comfort to me. I will not name them here, but I am lore they will recognize themselves. One young man In particular was In the midst of most difficult law school examinations; but he found time to dash into my room several times to visit and cheer me. Several of. my older son's friends are students at medical school. Thev, too. wore t>:ere when I needed them. I saw the concern in their eyes, but they were always cheerful and made me feel happy—and with their he'D I was able to return to rather a normal existence. It 'didn't matter that they had long hair. I didn't question their ideas on love. I know they will c o n t i n u e to grow into strong people. I know there are many young people who arc a great disappointment to their parents and to society in general. I hope that before too much damage is done they will learn to help themselves properly. As usual, a small group is constantly brought to the attention of the public. I feel strongly the great majority of out young men and women are busy trying to build their futures and living happy, normal lives. Mrs. Gerald Bcrstien (Lois)

W a s h i n g t o n (JTA)—Sen. Mark 0. Hatfield of Oregon, urged the elimination of the President's open-e n d e d commitment to military aid to Israel. The legislation, approved by Congress last year, authorizes the President to give Israel as much military aid as he feelsynecessary. In testimony today before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, H a t f i e l d asked that aid requests be handled individually to ''see if each one is within our national interests." He added, "Our onesided support of Israel to the neglect of her neighbors has had an effect similar to our . overarming ourselves to such an extent that other sectors of our economy and our relations with other countries have deteriorated." Hatfield, who has been critical of Israeli policy in the past and favors the internationalization of. Jerusalem, in his testimony today continued his support for Palestinian participation in direct Middle East peace talks by commenting: "Palestinians feel as though they have been severely wronged, and quite rightly. They live in virtually subhuman conditions in refugee camps and have little if any real expectations of regaining their homeland." Hatfield did not affix specific blame for the Palestinians' plight. -.

The planners and explorers now need community reaction and scrutiny during this flexible period to achieve what the community wants and what is practical and feasible. Mrs. Norman Halt (Frances)

5 year olds and a 3-day week for younger children. Mrs. Sidney Brooks, chairjnau, indicated that the Nursery School could be opened at the JCC West faciUty this fall if suitable staff could be found. One unique feature of the p r o j e c t e d Nursery School would be its swimming and gym programs. With regard to programming for older children, the committee submitted recommendations stressing plans for weekend activtics and summer day camps. The recommendations include the employment of a full-time children's worker, a play-room and waiting lounge as well as access to the proposed physical education and cultural programs. Older Adults The l a r g e s t attendance of the Town Meeting series was present at Beth El Synagogue last Sunday to discuss programs for the older adult. Mrs. Morris C. F o i l m a n , chairman of the sub-committee studying programs and facilities for the older adult, reviewed the findings of h e r committee which emphasized the need for a full-time director for senior citizens. Suggested programs w o u l d Include arts and crafts, cooking, dancing, theater, music and a variety of cultural activties. It was the feeling of those assembled that the many of the suggested programs should not be limited to senior citizens and that programming be geared to family participation. Mrs. Fellman reported that there are approximately 600 Jewish adults over the age of 65 in the community, and that a diversified program was being suggested to satisfy the

needs and Interests of this group. Specific facility recommendations included a lounge for

older adults as well as use o! the multi-purpose rooms, theater and athletic facilities of the new Center,
