Teens at 'Apathy Convention'Show They Care OMAHA - It took a bit of OrweUian "19M"-type doings, but the Cornbelt Region Winter Convention at least flntshed with a theme. It didn't start with one. "The convention had no theme because no one cared to give It one" said Rick Reno, a past president of Omaha AZA Chapter ^o. l (Mother iCbapter) Aid one of three ^eoordinators of the 1V75 B'nal B'rith Youth Organization convention here Dec. 2&-28. ' TtM situation could have been a reflection of the apathy seen today on college camjNises, a situation in marked leontrast to the uproar of the late IMOs and eariy'70s. : Whatever the reason, •Cornbelt Rs«laa's meeting 'was iardOBicalhr—If onofjfldidly-didibed '^Ite Apirtlqr Coovsntkn" by ooordhurtors JM It unveiled that nnmdajr.

came up with a surprise for the other 90-plus delegates from Omaha, Iowa and South Dakota. First they "planted" Mike Abramson during what was supposed to be "a cultural followed yet by another cultural" that afternoon. Then Abramson, asked why he had come, responded angrily that he'd come to get away from his parents—"I came to be rowdy, to get drunk and have a real good time," Renn related. Renn threatened Abramson with "severe punlshment-1 said I would lock him in his room for the duration because it was my convention and he was going to live by my rules." That would happen to anyone whose answers Ren didn't like, he said. Af that potot, Rem sent Howard MUe of Ltaeoln. regloaal vloo praaldsnt, and Dave RiriMck, u Omaha Youth Servlots staff member, to take Abrameon awagr. A etniggle eaeued alataeaa.
but one that looked 10 raallstk that aone gbk started oytag and some ba«s eMempted to "rescue" ABramiao, Renn told the Jewl^Preis. "They were so mad, they were screamfaig at me," said Renn. One gifi later told him, "I hated you for those few moments. I thought you were the worst example of humanity. It was a horrible, horrible thing—but you guys turned it around and It was a good thing." "No one talks about the problems that go on at the convention," lamented Renn In explaining why the coordinators felt they needed a ruse. "They (the teen) would be there doing things and then have arguments with the staff" when the latter group would step in. "We had the Idea we had to provoke people, to use mob psychology. We had to make them talk, get them to tell us what was critical, what they wanted to see more of-to let them air It out."
Other objectives of the "mob psychology", said Renn, were to "define the role of the staff according to what the kids wanted. Also, to find ou why did the kids come to the convention—what purpose did they see in it?" For the flat Ume, said Rem, "they lalkad about the nilea and what HMy thought," Ite rules were M Mt by the staff, birt by the coordlnatnrs, he sakL "We (oM them we were going to tiy to put them on their won reepooslbllitleB to •ee bow they would handle Uberallaed lulea.

Mexico then reportedly promised not to vote again for any more such rsoltuions — but nevertheless supported the declaration by the International y/omen's Year Convention (held in Mexico City last summer) which equated Zionism with colonialism and apartheid as movements that should be eliminated. It was explained that Mexico had meant "no more resolutions after" the Women's Year item, but the effect was the same and the boycott — which included non-Jews as well—continued. Brazil also voted for the anti-Zionist resolutions and now it too is beginning to feel the effects of the tourism boycott. It is not our desire to urge "revenge" or to wish misfortune on others. But if you want to help the tourist business of a country which really needs it, we have a suggestions: vacation in Israel this year. Put your money where it will do some good— and where you don't have to wonder about being dbnsidered racist in the process.

Responsibility to Truth Cited by Actor Wiseman OMAHA — Actor Joaeph Wlieman, questkMied whetlier or not Uie recent controversial nw>tkin picture "The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz" was anli-Semitic, instead pointed out an important responsibility that actors, writers and ottiers have toward truth. "You have a reaponsUiUity to present the truth," said the famous actor who portrayed Uie unde of Uie money-hungry young Duddy (Richard Oieyfus), "but you also have the mponslbllily to show what partof Uie truU) it is." Tlie actor made the comment during his visit to Uie Omaha Jewish Federation Library on Sunday, Dec. 28, the night after he presented readings from the woriu of contemporary Jewish writer to a scant ISO penons In the Jewish Community Center Theater. The Bicentennial event was presented by the Omalia Jewish Culhiral Arts Council. During Uw program, Wiseman made mention of an old Omaha friend, the late actor David Stewart, whose real name was Abe Siegal. Mrs. Hoae Weitz and Mrs. Freda Raduziner, former Omahans, were his sisters and IMrs. Bud Studna of Omaha Is a niece. Another Oniaiuui, Daivd Lazarus, reportedly also played in a stww with both Stewart and Wisenruui. Wiseman seemed most impressed by Uie collection of Yiddish books in tbeOmaha Federation Library. He pointed out that Uiey are becoming more rare not only because of the decline of the language, but also because the current political unrest in SouUi America has curtailed the publishing of them. He said South America was where the Yiddish putiUshing business had been heaviest in recent years. mdMrdPwri

U.S.Y. Chicago International Passes Anti-Zionism Boycott CHICAGO - The International United Synagogue Youth Convention heid in Chicago's Marriott Hotel, Dec. 21-2S, was tlmroughly enjoyed by the three Des Moines youth delegates: Franic Lipsman, chapter president; Jacltle Bergh, secretary; and Diane Dubansky, l)oard member. They rq)resented the Des Moines chapter in a gathering of close to 1,000 deiegatei from the 16 USY regions In the United States and Canada. The USY Emtza Region of the midwest had 30 delegates from various local chapters who participated at the convention. USY President Frank Upsman described the atmosphere of the event asi "very ntoving." Jackie Bergh, too, conunented on the mood of the conventkm. "There was a feeling of cloaenesi and Jewishness In being there," she said. HH ooovsnUon, I Jimimi Dotod, marked the Bdi anoknnaiy ttnat USY flnt began. Among tte ^Makwi were fonnsr USY natkoal pnrideot, Dmmf Segil, as mO at oUwr "wtlDMl pait praldeaia. A special foeat, Gcrda KMn, alao spoke it ttie USY leeenihly. Lipsman emphasised the value of the convention,
"Shalom B'Bahyete" (Peace in the Home) which stresses the iniportance of the home as the center of Jewish life. Diane Dubansky noted parent-child relationships are vitally important If the home is to assume Its rightful position in helping Judaism survive. "Parents and their children must work together on Jewish studies, must observe Jewish customs and traditions together, must go to the synagogue. All facets of Jewish life, observance and Jewish identification must be extensions from the home," stie learned. "The spirit of belonging to one big family... singing and dancing and getting to know each other was the remarkable part about the convention,'' Diane said. Tbe USY preMeot mentkMWd the baHnm of the convention involved the eiflctkn of oMoen and the paasliig of reeolutloM.
