Jerusalem Synagogue Hit By Arson Attempt ^ JERUSALEM, (JTA) nite second time within a veek, an attempt was made ^ set fire to a JewUh ieUgious institute In East ^erwalem. The arson atlempt was made at the Habad Synagogue in (he Jewish guarter in the Old City, pausing only miiMr damage |rith no one hurt. ; Last Sunday a similar ^Itempt was nude on a llawtsh bookstore, a few bglgi from the synagogue. In ^^Fcases kerosene was W/mt under an Iron gale at Mm enb-ance, and then lit. In

both cases the fire was discovered and extinguished before It could do serious damage. Police arrested several East Jerusalemi reskients in both cases, but the similarity in (he manner of arson attempts indicate that the actual arsonists are still at large. The current arson cases began two weeks ago whan three Christian rellgkxts insUtutions in West Jerusalem were set on fire, but it is not clear whether the fire at the Jewish Institutions was meant to be a reprisal, o(fk:Ula said.

Most of all I guess I remember my teen years at the Center. It was there, at an A2A ^eeiheart dance that I had my first date. The Center was the place I spent my spare time. It was there that I learned about leadership and philanthropies campaigns and a sense ot Jewish commimity. It was at tlie Center that I shared happy times with my friends, and it was at the Center on the Sunday of December 7, l»41 that I shared the sad news of the attack on Pearl Harbor. It was the Center library that motivated a continuing habit of Jewish reading and love of Jewish music. As 1 walked through the shabby buikiing this week I was struck with a flood of memories.

At the same time I find myself lapsing into noa^ic memories of the <dd Center; the meaning it had for me that can never be replac«d.

thoughts of the days of the Round Table of Jewish Youth. The auditorium recalled the variety of activities held there. I remembered the fun of Round Table dances; the intellectual challenge of oratorical contests; the frivolity of Stage Nights, and the awesome sacredness of teenagers holding a Memorial Service in the Center auditorium in memory of Round Table members who kwt their lives during WorM War 11. I remember many members of the Center staff, with special memories of a very special few. Ruth Neuhouse, Harokl Katz. Paul Ver«t. aU had an impact on me during my teenage years. It's difficult to meaaure the part they played in the devekipment of my identity as a Jew. But there is litUe doubt that they played a vital role. The basement of the Center which in recent years has been a bookkeeping office, once housed a teenage lounge. I remember the transition of the teen lounge to a USO lounge during the war years. And after the war. a teen room again. It seems that the Center always adapted to changing needs, and now, after 4t years, the biggest change of all is being made. The move to the new Center is a milestone in our Jewish community. I look forward to the new opportunities; the new challenges the move represents. I don't like to think of myself as one who clings to memories of the past. At the same time I don't think memories can be discarded lightly. The shabby old buikiing on 20th Street was in large measure responsible for the Jewish commitment of many of us which in turn motivated our desire to build a new Center for succeeding genera boos. As hi every phase o( Ue, the hspe far tonorrow is haUl •• Ike reality of today, trhieh was shaped by the eveais tl yesterday. Each b an inporUat link In the coaUaaUy o( Jewish life.

Preservation Ttirough Change The following .excerpts are from the D'var Torah presented by David Belin, Chairman of the Bureau of Jewish Education Commission at the February 28th, : meethig of the Board of Governors of the Jewish WeUare FederaUon. f Today we face the greatest I crisis ever to confront r American Jewry — the , combined effect of tremen'-dous increases in the rate of I assimilation and initermarriage coupled with Imarked decreases in Icnrollment in Jewish icducation programs. If the etreod continues unchecked, i/we will see the decline and Intimate disintegration of the |Americdb Jewish com, What can tranWem the Bde? I beliere iiiat the j|niwer lies in a concept as old H Judaism itself - the loctrine of preservation hroi^diange. i 11M kMory of our people is

truly unique. In the words of Dr. Ellis RlvUn in his recent book, "The Shaping of Jewish Watory, the Jews, and only the Jews, have actively participated in every phase of the development of Western civilization." RivUn shows how time and time again throughout Jewish history, new crises were met by innovation and change. And this is what we must be prepared to do hi Jewish education in America today, if American Jewry is to survive. First we must remove ourselves from the blinders of trying to stuff down minutia of fact almost totally removed from the current experience of the students. We have to develop outstanding progranu during the school year and equally outstanding summer programs that by the very nature of their creativity and quality attract Jewish studanta of all ages. We roust wet the ajipetite for more

Judaism — and not gorge down a heavy diet of what was stuffed down the throats of students ten, twenty and forty years ago. And perhaps most important of ail, we have to get involved ourselves. We must take the giant step of direct involvement of lay leadership instead of leaving education primarily for the professional educators or the rabbinic leadership of the counb7. And as we involve ourselves, we should remember that our primary goal is not the dissemination of facts but rather the cultivation of a positive attitude toward and an emotional identincation with Judaism - an atUtude that will be strong enough to withstand the continual assaults of aaaimilation and intermarriage. The essence of Jewish survival was anakigiied by Justice Holmes in one of his most famous statements: The life of the law has not been k)gic — it has beeq , w

perience. Similarly, the lifeline of Jewish survival has not been logic — it has been the unity concept of God coupled with the ability of Jewish leadership to understand' contemporary experience and within the framework of that experience preterve through change. If Jadaism is to be preserved hi AaMrlca, we aiast develop ckalleBgkig and laaavallve programt of Jewlsk edacatloB for ear cfclMrea a ad for owseives. Here is where the greatest opportunity lies in Jewish education today. We dare not fail.

\ Our Youth in a Pressure Cooker? I eapecially dislike the Youth Division of cttnpaign. I do not feel it'i purpoK is merely to educate, and I do not like the apparent attitude of many teenagers who judge both peers and adulta by what they give. I feci our youth is inUmidated by this attitude. Society has already put so much pressure, and encouraged so much coiDpetitiveiMsa, that I find youth campaign very offensive. Kay Myers Dear Kay, As we both had different vantage points for viewing Youth Campaign, we thought it best to comment separately. We also though you might like to hear from others who had varying degrees of involvement with the Youth Campaigns. We contacted four persons, snd we thanit each of them for sending ua a response to your oommenta. As a mother of a teen-ager, I feel strongly that if the purpose of Youth Campaign is merely to educate, then by all means It is not worth the incredible expenditure of time, effort, and talent of everyone involved with it! ~ Youth Campaign as I have observed it very much first hand, serves many other purposes. The moat apparent is fund raising. I can only say that a meaningful gift, consistent with one's ability to give ia the sole vehicle by which chUdren, like adulU of the American Jewish commiailty, can expreas their understanding and eommttment to the needs of fellow Jews abroad, and Jewish IfBlliom, oeedi and activitlM locally. If there Is an atUtude among teenagers to Judge others by what they give, then this is unfortunste. However personal feelings cannot be legislated nor organiied; they come from within, and In the case of children, often from the home. This ia where the parents must do some of the educatlog. Society does Indeed place tremeadoos pressure on young people. Let's examine this. Hars we are In a period of afduence, when most teenagers do not have to help the family either physically or financially. In other words, they are not needed. How many un-needed people are happy, or fulfilled, or contented! Might not the joy of being needed be considered a gift to our young people? Might not young people who hnow they serve a purpoae in this world be more stable and better prepared to meet aoeiety'a pressures? And Anally, what great pleaaure there is in Jewish pau-ents and children sharing interest! in Judaism snd Jews. Youth Csmpaign offers our youngsters an avenue which leads to youth and adulU working together for a common cause, defybig the fsneratioa gap! DsraibyHeeteaberg

The primary I'eaaon for the establishment of a Youth Campaign was education; It was felt that our youth were largely uninformed of the way Jews provide for the multiple needs of world Jewry. It was also felt that our youth knew too little of the individual moral responsibility to meet these needs, that Judaism, since the time of the Patriarchs, has placed squarely upon the shoulders of every Jew. Our children learned of tills Jewish responsibility, and in aome instances the lack of it, and 1 think determined for themselves that they too are truly responsible one for the other.' June Daniels Adult AdviMM-to

Youth Campaigns From Ellen Hetnstadt resident of Ames, now a freshman at Stevens College. The retreats are well organized and very informative to the older Uds (High School - nth and 12th grades). They are young adults snd should know sbout Jewish affairs and understand why money is needed. But younger children don't understand whst'l going on. It's a fun overnight to them, and at the end they are cornered and asked for money. Many might feel trapped. TMs defeats the whole purpose. Giving should come from the heart, and with an understanding of why your're giving, not Juat because one feels he or she haa to. A pledge Is a personal thing. A ll.OO pledge is beautiful If it was given through your heart. I don't feel younger chUdren ihould be included until they are oU enough to understand why they are giving money and understand the importance of Jews hokiing together and helping out other Jews As s whole 1 feel that the Youth Campaign is a good idea, although 1 have one major criliciam. In the years that I worked on or attended the Youth Campaign activities I have not leen a iufficient amount of emphuia on education. I feel that the youth of this city should be educated a lot mote than they have in the past. The Local Needs Campaign that is coming up should not be used tor the solicitation of money, because a lot of youth gave more than they could afford in the emergency campaign in October. 1 think it woukl be a very wia« idea if this campaign would be aolely an educational program. I am speaking for myself and not the Oes Moines JewUh Youth CouncU, of which I am chairman. Jesh EagmsB Hlghi Youth campaigns have much valua. Thay art a fine educational tosi to teach our

young people the needs of the community (local, national, and international) and the problems of fund raising. (Where it comes from and where It goes to). They learn that in many instances one must sacrifice to work and give for what he believes is ri^t. They learn that all their peers do not beUeve as they do and that it lakes time and effort to educate everyone. Giving is an important Jewlah value which cannot be learned loo early. Jim Marcovis Interested Pareal

Since my children are too young to participate in the Youth Campaign, my impreasioni are only observations. These are the observations that excite me: young adults, who hold voting status on our commission boards and the Federation Board of Governors, participate actively, expressing well thought out concepts and • sincere concerns. Young adulti planning an educational retreat and a learning marathon for Soviet Jewry. DMM! activities can only taht place when people have sufficient knowledge to know to be concerned. They must then find a way to express this concern, and finally find a way to act upon It. Since the origin of our Youth Identification Program and the creation of the Youth Campaign, the numbers of our Des

Tifereth Israel Plans Hassidic Music Festival Des Moines — On Friday, March 8th at 8:00 p.m., Tifereth Ureal Synagogue will present a special Friday Evening Service devoted to Hastidic music. Chanting the unusual music of this service will be Cantor Pinchas Spiro who is himself a descendant of a long line of Hassidic rabbis, and was trained since early childhood in this type of music. He will be assisted by the large Synagogue choir directed by Paul Dieke, with Phyllia Maines at the organ. To complement the unusual proceedings of this service, Rabbi Barry Cytron will incorporate Hassidic tales,

parables and sayings into the body of the service. There are two distinct categories of Hassidic music. The more familiar and popular type consists of bouncy folk melodies with lively, dance-like rhythms. The other type we might call "Hassidic Soul Music." It is quiet, contemplative and highly ornamental, with mystical overtones. Both types of Hassidic songs will l>e represented at Tifereth Israel's Music Festival on March 8th, to which the entire commimity is invited.
