Bingo Games Assailed by Conservative Jewish Body Kiamesha Lake, N.Y.—The United Synagogue of America, the congregational arm of the Conservative Movement in Judaism discarded the penalty of disaffiliation for synagogues which conduct public bingo games. Fifteen congregations have been removed' from the United Synagogue's rolls since 1961 when the USA convention that year voted to outlaw games of chance lor fund-raising purposes. It is now anticipated that these synagogues will be readmitted. Some 2.000 delegates from 830 congregations representing a million and a' half worshippers throughout the United * States, Canada and Puerto Rico attended the biennial convention last week. .. On the bingo issue, the convention reaffirming the organization's "distaste for and condemnation" of gambling for fund-raising purposes but removing the ouster penalty. Instead, the convention decreed t h a t other penalties might be imposed by the national organization. Penalties could be ineligibility of bingo-playing congrega-

tions to designate delegates to regional and national conventions of the United Synagogue, and their members could be barred from ho.lding regional or national office. Also, Solomon Scliechter Awards, given for excellence in various fields of synagogue activity, could be withheld. It was pointed out that bingo games operated for the amusement of senior'citizens within the synagogue are not considered offensive gambling, nor are occasional "Monte Carlo nights" or jaffles.

Dayan Postpones Tour of the U.S. Jerusalem (JTA) — Defense Minister M o s h e Dayan has postponed his fund ra'sing tour of the US on behalf of the United Jewish Appeal, during which lie would have faced invitations to Visit Secretary of State William P. Rogers and Defense Secretary Melvin R. Laird. Informed quarters said they saw no point to Dayan's meeting the two Americans at this time, contending that the political differences between the U.S.: and Israel are so great that only a direct meeting between President Nixon and Premier Golda Meir could aid progress. It would not be polite', the sources < added, for Dayan to visit the U.S. and ignore Rogers and Laird invitations.

New York—A story of harassmen, imprisonment, the forced commission of unnatural* acts, beatings .and other ^barbarous tortures was revealed by a 17year-old Jewish boy who recently escaped from the terror under which the Jews of Syria now live. Speaking at a- news conference called by the Committee of Concern, headed by Gen. Lucius D. Clay, the youth, who used the fictitious name of Eli Levy to protect friends and relatives still in Syria, described the condition of Syrian Jews as one of "continual fear and a feeling of perpetual danger." The young man described his experiences in D a m a s c u s , which included a total of 12 days in prison on three different occasions.. During these times, he stated, he personally witnessed brutal floggings and other degradations of prisoners. The first imprisonment occurred, he stated, when his young brother and a friend managed to flee the country. After their departure, he and his elder brother, together with the father and a brother of the other boy, went—in accordance with Syrian regulations—to report their 'absence to the Deuxieme Bureau (secret police), which maintains a special office in the Jewish quarter. All four were held in prison for four days,. At the end of those four days, the father of the other boy emerged emaciated and half crazed. He bad. been forced to undress and to violate bis son. . Also at the end of those four days, "Levy" continued, his brother had contracted typhoid fever, and.he himself, as a result of beatings, developed an ear injury and displacement of

News Around the World Abzug on Israel Washington j(JTA) — Rep. Bella S. Abzug (D., N.Y.) and seven Jewish organizational and congregational leaders spent an hour last week telling Assistant Secretary of State Joseph J. Sisco why Israel needs more Phantom jets. Mrs. Abzug said later that Sisco' told them "that despite widespread interpretations of recent State Department statements, no decision to discontinue the sale of Phantom jets to Israel has.been made." She stated further: "K that is triie, the weight of American opinion must b« brought to bear on the government now . .,. On the eve of a UN debate on the Middle East, such a statement (that a military balance exists) could be easily misinterpreted, encourage an aggressive attitude by Egypt and'thus diminish the chances for a political settlement through direct negotiations between the two parties."

Immigrant Housing Jerusalem (JTA)—Immigrants' housing will be reduced by two-thirds in the next fiscal year —4,000. apartments as compared with 12,000 started this year. The Treasury believes the Housing Ministry has already started'work on more apartments than are needed.

Over the past two years, housing was built for an expected influx of 45,000 to 50,000 immigrants a year, but fewer than 40,000 a year arrived. The Treasury is pressing the Housing Ministry to cut back, arguing that if the immigrant flow increases, more money for housing can be appropriated. ,

Elozar Approved Jerusalem (JTA)—The Cabinet has appproved the appointment of Maj. Gen. David Eiazar, 47, to b e c o m e Chief of Staff of Israel's Armed Forces. Gen. Eiazar will succeed Lt. Gen. Halm Bar-Lev who is retiring from the Army and is expected to be named Minister of Commerce and Industry next year. The official change of command will take place Jan. 1, 1972. : Gen. Eiazar, who commanded Israel's armored corps in the Six-Day War, is presently chief of the General Staff Department at G e n e r a l -Headquarters.

!~ By MARYFECLMAN , r > If you "had Walked into the lojiby of the Dr. Philip Sher Home; ; Monday-morning,, you would have heard sounds that reminded1 ; you of a gym class. But at the Home? Silly! But it was a gym • class—the first, and 17r residents moved arms and legs about, ' swayed their bodies to a musical beat and generally had a fun,' i time: Most amazing of all, some of the 17 were from the Hospital ' section and had not participated in any LOVE activities previously. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday—Calisthenics at 10 a.m. again— thanks to LOVE. •'...'< \ , And "Wednesday Night at the Movies" has become the most ' popular night of the week. Two weeks ago 43 residents turned out tor sit for three hours watching the sentimental, emotional "Jolson Story," And they LOVED it. Last Wednesday night's movie was not quite as successful. Getting a new projector to work took time, but the residents sat patiently waiting. They were pleasant and uncomplaining also when the movie finally went on and turned out to be a travelogue (highly recommended by the Omaha Public Library Film Room) -. . ., in/Italian with English subtitles! A second short 01m was delightful though, and there's always next week to look forward to -for the residents and for LOVE's projectionists. " • I '.* - . - . ' * -'{' ' *

One of the more delightful days at the Home came about when Cantor Elchanan Gelberg of Beth Israel synagogue came out to present a most enjoyable musical program, and stayed to have lunch with the Residents who LOVED having him with them. Sixty residents, a goodly number, came to hear and applaud the concert. -* *--*--- — In and Out of the Home With LOVE Two carloads of residents were taken to the Dundee theater last week to see "Kotch." And a statement from one resident that "a cup of coffee would taste good after the show" brought a "coffee treat" about with LOVE volunteers . . . Jade earrings, keychains, and other LOVELY items were finished recently in the stone and jewelry class, much to the enjoyment of those who made them and now wear them with pride .„. . a number of LOVE volunteers have been spending their time at the Home . taking residents walking, reading "to them and writing their personal letters . . . bulbs that will hopefully appear next spring 'as tulips were planted on the patio side of the Home this week by Nancy Noddle and Marsha Robinson, members of the HOME committee, and Lee Jane Parsow, and the weekly bingo game continues to be a high point in the week! * * * , If the many activities you've read about above make you think LOVE is really clicking at the Home, you're r i g b t . . . but it's all being accomplished by a small core of devoted members of LOVE. Many more "regulars" are needed Monday through Thursday, morning, afternoon and evening, that LOVE may continue to grow. ANOTHER ORIENTATION IS SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 1 at 7:30 p.m. at the Home for new LOVE WORKERS. Come on out—volunteer some of your free time to bring more LOVE to the residents of the Home. Their happy words of "Thanks" and delightful smiles are' evidence of gratitude and appreciation to all who participate. LOVE is at the HOME—the important question then Is, ARE YOU IN LOVE? Come to the Orientation Wednesday, December 1 at 7:30 p.m. at 'the HOME . . . it's' for men, women and teens—no dues, only your desire to give volunteer service on a regular schedule. Call Miriam Simon, LOVE chairman, now and let her know you'll be ' there. The phone number is 397-2222 or 451-7241.

'The Family Gartered'

. ISRAEL BOND FASHION SHOW Lynda Mirvish wrote with perception and c o n v i c t i o n about the Israel Bonds Fashion Show. She captured the spirit • of Israel fashion and offered constructive ideas for new pro• gramming for Israel Bonds. " I am grateful for her excellent coverage and also for the opportunity it affords me to respond to her remarks. Israel's development budget ' for 1971-72, according to a report by Shimon Alexandroni, Israel's economic minister to ' the U.S. and Canada, is $623,300,000, the'main source of fi' nancing this budget, roughly 75 pec cent is the sale of Israel Bonds. The fashion industry, in addition to being an outstanding public relations tool is also a key factor in Israel's economic expansion, responsible for a large share of export business. Te present this facet of Israel's expertise to the largest possible audience is the goal of the Israel. Bond Committee both here in Omaha and all over the country. Combining the Fashion Show with the sale of Israel Bonds is a successful program because women who invest in the future of Israel can witness the amazing creativity which continues to flourlab amidst such overwhelming. odds. I recall my first Bond Fashion Show three years ago when '"taany of the more maturewomen" applauded the most immature bikini to grace any Tunway because it was from Israel. However, the Fashion •Show probably should present a less glamorous, more realistic picture for us because in ' reality, Israel produces lovely, wearable fashions for all ages, and reality is what Israel Bonds are all about. All members of the committee agree with Mrs. Mirvish that "such valuable public rc- latlons on Israel's behalf should be open to the entire community." But ft is open to any and all of us who accept our share of the partnership in our common destiny. r Mrs. Daniel. Katzman . Member, National Executive Committee for Israel Bonds.

WE NEED YOU! During recent weeks m u c h has been said and written about LOVE (League Offering Volunteers for the Elderly). The publicity we have received in the Jewish Press has been excellent, our volunteers are enthusiastic, and most important of all, the residents at the Dr. Sher Home are truly happy with all the attention and activity. Most people with whom I have spoken have expressed their delight to hear that this wonderful, i m p o r t a n t , long overdue project in the Omaha Jewish Community has met with such instant and phenomenal success. My purpose In writing this letter it not exactly to burst this bubble—but I do feel compelled to erase tome misconception!. True, we have met with instant success, and perhaps we might. ev«n call it phenomenal as compared to the atmosphere that pervaded the Home before LOVE. But we are not exactly what one... could call flourishing. Why? ' Simply lack of sufficient manpower. Many of my friends were shocked to hear me "crying" about the need for more volunteers. After reading in the Jewish Press the impressive list of those attending orientation sessions, they found it hard to believe that we didn't have even more than enough. It's not too hard to understand, however, when you know these facts: 1. In order to run ever a - moderately s u c c e s s ful program, we need a minimum of six volunteers for each shift. 2. We have twelve shifts per week-9:00-ll:30 a.m., 1:00-3:30 p.m., 7:00-9:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday. s 3. Some volunteers work two shifts lone whole day) per week, while others work only one shift per month. 4. Monday afternoon, our only really well staffed period, we have six regular volunteers plus two additionals - twice a month. But at other times we have only one or two.. Now I am pleading for help. Another LOVE Orientation will be offered Wednesday, December 1 at 7:30 p.m. at the Dr. Sher Home. Those of you interested hi joining LOVE are

Mrs. Ervin (Miriam) Simon LOVE Chairman AUTOPSIES: 'EQUAL TIME' It was with great interest that we noted your publication, covered the campaign against the practice of unauthorized autopsies' in Hadassah H o s p i t a l , launched by our youth organization. Your publication gave the. response of Mrs. Faye Schenk, National President of Hadassah, to this campaign. In all fairness, your publication should also print the reply to that statement issued by Rabbi Moshe Sherer, executive president of Agudath Israel of America. In his statement, Rabbi Sherer said: .' "The accusation by the president of the American Hadassah organization that Agudath Israel is "derelict" in not influencing the Knesset to change the autopsy law is a cynical attempt to evade the real issue. To blame a smaoll opposition Knesset faction, which is outnumbered almost 30 to 1, for Knesset decisions is simply a smokescreen to camouflage the facts. * : "The facts are that the reason the Knesset has not changed Israel's law to require families' consent before an autopsy is performed, is primarily due to the doctors in Israel who have applied extreme pressure on the government. "The issue at this time .is not the Knesset law, because the law does not compel the Hadassah hospital to perform in' voluntary autopsies, but gives it the right to do so if three doctors sign a certificate. "It is, our contention that the American Hadassah organization, whose members benefit from the democratic practices in the U.S.A., should request its own hospital in Jerusalem to abide by this democratic concept, and not make use of the loophole which the present Is-' raeli law grants them. "The'telephone protest campaign to the Hadassah offices, organized by the Agudist youth, will continue until the Hadassah hospital guarantees its patients the same' fights as any American hospital, so that no longer will sick people in Israel be afraid to enter a hospital out of fear that their bodies would become public property." Rabbi Menacbem Lubinsky Agudath Israel of America

Rabbi Kripke Receives 'Sabbatical1 From Beth E By Sylvia Wagner

Omaha — "And the family gathered." The Beth El family and some few of its closest friends gathered at the Synagogue Sunday evening, November 21 to celebrate the 25th year of Rabbi Myer S. Kripke's leadership. No saccherine evening this— it was filled with humor, wit, affection and warm respect. The toasts and comments, Including those of Rev. Alex Katz were offered as though the 450 people present were a part of the evening and not merely spectators. Cantor Aaron Edgar sang a number that he. hadn't done since performing it at the Rabbi's installation.. Wires and letters were read from Rabbis David A. Goldstein and Louis Finkelstein, a few local and national organizations and former students. W e Recommend

Dorothy Kripke quoted her husband's comment that a congregation gets and keeps th« 1 of rabbi it deserves and she admitted, "without modes* ty," that in this case both were number 1. - Two of the Kripke children/ Saul and Madeline (Netta is in Israel) spoke briefly and tha congregation responded as only proud "aunts and uncles" can. Rabbi Sidney Brooks of Temple Israel and Rabbi Isaac Nad6ff of Beth Israel contributed to the family simcha by sharing "inside thoughts" of the rabbinate. The board of Beth El presented Mrs. Kripke with a gift of Israeli jewelry, and for tha Rabbi—a sabbatical, and on behalf of many of their friends, a monetary gift. Rabbi Kripke acknowledged all of the gifts and the entira proceedings but most, importantly" the gift of time as the most precious gift for a rabbi that he may study so to be a better teacher."

That was the s t o r y Bob Cohn told Advertising Executives in Omaha this week. Obviously, it was a pitch for niore advertising in the: ethnic press; but it was a "good business' 'approach, and not an appeal for charity. And that's what I liked best. I think it's true that more people are reading more ethnic • papers more thoroughly. I think the Jewish Press falls in that class, and that advertisers in our paper do get results. I'm pleased that Bob Cohn was here to tell the story in the way he did. I hope all potential advertisers heed his words.
