Nov. 30, at 1:30 p.m. The plaques will recognize major donations which provided many of the rooms and facilities for the Center The (4 millionplus facility at 333 South 132nd Street was in full operation this past summer.

The women urged the Jewish community to be on hand for the ceremonies. A short dedication program with a Hanukkah theme Is planned.

Mrs, Katskee Finds New JCC 'Gorgeous' OMAHA- Back In the ia20s. her husband Abe made a ISOO pkBdge to the building fund of the Jewish Community Cemer then being built at Mh and Dodge Streets "We didn't have that money to give all at once. We gave so much every month." she recalled of the pledge which. even by today's standards. Is a worthy amount. A week ago this past Wednesday, the lady. Tony Katskee, now 97 years young, completed a journey through time by making her first visit to the new Jewish Community Center on I32nd Street about three blocks south of Dodge. "Oh. It's gorgeous!" said Mrs. Katskee. "I wouldn't have believed II If 1 hadn't seen It.

Russia, some 90 years ago. recalled thai "we used to go to the JCC all the time. It was very handy." she said. "We had Bar and Bat Mllzvahs there, we had everylning there." Mrs. Katskee said she doesn't think the West Omaha location should be a factor in use of the JCC by the Jewish community. Said she. matler-of-factly: "The young ones all have cars today It'seasy for them to get here." Mrs Katskee. a member of'Beth El Synagogue, noted that her late husband had been president of the old South Omaha Synagogue and also the Omaha Hebrew Club.

positions, there appears to be no practical value at this lime for either interim negotiations or negotiations for an overall peace package, the sources said. They acknowledged that the United States does not accept Israel's reading of the situation and is vigorously pressing for Interim negotiations on the Golan tmtx the UNDOF mandate ii renewed. Secretary of Stale Henry A. Kissinger has made the American position clear on more than one occasion and Washington has been pressing Premier Yitzhak Rabin to make an eariy visit to the U.S. to explore possibilities for Golan talks. Rabin has eschewed the Invitation and Is not expected to go to Washington before the latter halfof January at theeariiesl. The government sources stressed, however, that the U.S. was committed In writing to continue Its support of Israel even If no agreement can be reached on the Golan HelghU. The sources said the commitment was pari of Ihe American package offered Israel in return for last September's Sinai accord with Egypt - even though It does not appear among the documents "leaked" and later officially confirmed In Washington during recent Congressional hearings on the Sinai pact. Thus, Israeli sources believe the U.S. will not undertake another "reassessment" of its Middle East policy even if it Is disappointed by a Golan failure. American commitments to Israel will remain firm at least until after the 1976 Presidential elections. Which means that Israel Is In effect assured of US support for Its present political positions lor another IS months, the sources said.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla (JTA)-Jerald C Hoffberger of Baltimore has been elected president of the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, the nalkKul body of more than 200 federations, welfare funds, and community councils serving over 800 communities In the United SUtes and Canada.

A former vlcei>resldent of the CJF and chairman of its advisory committee on community relations in the Middle East, he was elected to succeed Raymond Epstein of Chicago at the organization's 44th General Assembly A prominent communal leader, both nationally and in Baltimore, in non sectarian as well as Jewish organizational life, Hoffberger is currently a chairman of the Distribution Committee of the Community Foundation of Baltimore Hollberger, who lives In Riderwood. Md., is president of the Carling National Breweries, Inc., chairman of the Baltimore (Orioles) Baseball Club, and is an officer and director of numerous other business interests

"No LMMning' MIAMI BEACH, iJTAlDedaring that United States government grants of even as high as $2.24 billion do not diminish the need lor unprecedented fund-raising for Israel in 1976. Frank R Lautenberg. general chairman of Ihe United Jewish Appeal, told 3,000 community deiegales from the US and Canada attending the 44(h General Assembly of the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds that Israel desperately needs $600 million of lyA funds next year The UJA leader, declaring that "Israel is the heart of the Jewish people," and that "antt-Ztonlsm is truly antiSemitic," said that "the battle lor Eretz Israel is being waged intemallonally through politics-oil-economicsmorality-and in the hearts and minds of man." Lautenberg sought to dispel

any thoughts that '"Amerlcin goventmenl assistance obviates the need for Jewish giving" This, he said, "is just as pernicious as the illusion of peace. American aid is mflitary-securilyrelaled tools to deter aggresskmnecessary to keep Israel strong Warplanes and missiles can only protect, they cannot create.^' "This American aM will not Improve Israel's standard of living one bit Not a penny of the proposed $2 24 billion is for humanitarian aid or to raise living conditions lor the people

of Israel. Remember, only Jewish giving builds llle." he said Lautenberg pointed out that Israel this year will have to re^ay $230 million in interest and principal for loans already made Pointing out the hl|^ tax rate in Israel, he said that "Israeli taxes-not our dollars-are repaying the US loans. Israel's foreign currency debt per capita is 12.000. almost four times that of any other country Their balance of payments deficit will soar to $4.1 billion next year. The debt service will reach$l.>bUUoD."

It Is to remember this miracle that we light the eight-branched menorah, adding one candle each night until all eight of the branches bum bri^y Work is not forbhlden and Jews all over go idMNit their business with a little extra: the Joyous spirit of Hanukkah.

OMAHA - The Rabbis may have to wear hard hats but they will be glad to be back." Building Committee Chairman Ted Seldin an nounced at the Nov 19 Temple Israel Congregational meeting at the Jewish Community Center The meeting discussed repair work on the Temple, damaged in the May 6 tor nado. It is antkipated that Ihe sanctuary, social hall, offices and restrooms will be In operation by Feb. 1,1976. It is hoped that the remainder of the building will be complete by June I, Seldin indicated.

Repair work on the exterior o( the building is virtually complele. Improvements, such as widening the driveway entrances, were deemed advantageous to the congregation and so were, or will be. done, according to Stanley Perimeter. Temple president. Although the primary concern of the building committee was one of repair. Seldin sad. il was also necessary to take into consideratkm possible future uses and needs and to provide the congregatkx) with a building that would "adequately serve the congregation's needs for the next 20-25 years " In order to meet the cost difference between the insurance and the actual or estimated costs, the Temple launched a campaign in June to raise $100,000 This goal has not yet been reached, a Temfrfe spokesnnan said, but It is hoped that the congregalhNi will be encouraged by the progress made and meet the Temple's needs.

One of the Items that wu not covered by Ihe insurance was the landKaping Ajon Farber. who is co<halrman with wife Carol, of the grounds committee, joined with the rest of the committee chairmen in encouraging Ihe congregation to help meet the $400,000 goal. Jack Marer, a past president of Temple, made a motkm which was passed without dissent, to thank all involved In the rebuilding of Ihe Temple and to approve all the board's actions, contracts and agreements entered into and to approve the management and uses of the monies collected thus far. A group of "before and after" sIMes, explained by Gary Goldstein, one of the Temple's architects, made clear the amount of work accomplished and what is left Av Greenberg took the slides Don Polaky U the other ardiilect associated with the rebuikling plans. The addition of the Milder Conference Center, which is to be situated on the west wall of the social hall, will greaUy add to the nexibilily of the Temple buikling. Extra storage area will be included in the expanskm plans and improved and modemlMd Insulation, wiring and air cobditkmlng are also part of the "new" Temple.
