showed that the talent in the Arts
Society is not confined to acting for
they were original productions. Rabbi
Henry J. Berkowitz wrote "Lex
Talionis" and Isaac Goldberg is the
author "The Tailor." Both of these
plays deal with Jewish life, the first
showing a phase of anti-Semitism with
an unexpected ending, and the latter
the story of a tailor who left Russia
as the result of a pogrom. The other
two plays were comedies, "Fourteen"
by Alice Gerstenherg, and "Bottled
in Bond" by Glenn Hughes.
The Arts Society is to have one
more program this year. A four-act
play,
a new venture for the actors,

entitled "The Truth," by Clyde Fitch,

will
be
presented May 7 at the temple.
