A very interesting and impor-
tant meeting of the Mogen David
Club was held Dec. 15 at the West-
minster and Delmar Talmud To-
rah. The club planned to make
the Jewish National Fund tag way
a brilliant success this year. All
the members were urged to come
and participate in this event.
The members had a keen disap-
pointment when Ben Lipson, bas-
ketball captain, resigned The club
then elected Henry Faigna as cap-
tain to succeed Mr Lipson.
Entries have been tiled for
the Young Judaean track meet. It
looks like the club will have a
promising team.
Young Judaea will stage a Cha-
nukah program Dec. 25 at the
Melbourne Center. This program
will be one of the best entertain-
ments that Young Judaea ever
produced. Some of the main fea-
tures of this program will be a
talk to be given by Rabbi Ashin-
sky, a Mogen David debate, mu-
sic and frivolities. Following the
program refreshments will be
furnished those present. Tickets
are only 15 cents for adults and
10 cents for children. Young Ju-
daea urges everybody to be there.

PRAGUE.--(J. T. A.)—A uni-
versity for the Jewish students
who are the victims of discrimina-
tion, through the operation of nu-
merus clausus laws or practices in
East and South European coun-
tries, may soon be established in
Czecho-Slovakia, according to a
sensational report published by
the Czech newspaper Rozwoj.
The report states that negotia-
tions to this effect have been
started with the Czecho-Slovakian
government by an unnamed Amer-
icanphilanthropist. The university
is to serve in particular the nu-
nwrus clausus victims in the coun-
tries neighboring on Czecho-Slo-
vakia.

Symphony Orchestra.

The Detroit Symphony Choir
makes the first of its live concert
appearances this season singing
Mendelssohn's Oratorio "Elijah" at
Orchestra Hall, on Tuesday eve-
rting.
Rehearsals for "Elijah" have
been in progress each and every
Monday evening since early in Oc-
tober with Victor Kolar, associate
conductor of the Detroit Symphony
Orchestra, directing, and great care
has been taken in this religious
cantata. The choral part is dra-
matic in the extreme acid calls for
exacting precision in attack and
reRase, thus giving the choir a
splendid chance to prove its effec-
tiveness. There as a dozen or more
choral parts, one of the most elec-
tive being "Thanks to God."
The next pair of symphony con-
certs given by the Detroit Sym-
phony Orchestra with Mr. Ossip
Gabrilowitsch conducting, will take
place on Thursday and Friday eve-
nings, Dec. 29 and 30 at Orchestra
Hall. Mr. Carl Flesch, violinist
will 110 the assisting artist and will
he heard in Brahms Violin Concerto
in D major. Op. 77.
Mr. Flesch who started to play
violin at the age of six, has stud-
ied in the best conservatories in
Europe and received many prizes
for his remarkable gift and accom-
plishments. Ile has made tours of
all countries in Europe and ap-
peared two seasons in the United
States, and recently on his third
trip here, hr was offered and ac-
cepted the position as head of the
violin department of the Curtis In-
stitute iif Music in Philadelphia.

I. 0. B. B. Choral Society.

Maurice Schwartz, chairman of
the B'nai B'rith choral committee,
in a recent report stated that:
"Despite the fact that the Choral
Society has only lately been or-
ganized, it is proud of the pro-
gress made during its formative
stage. Many persons interested
in the work have already signified
their approval and have aligned
themselves with the project.
Among them are vocalists of dis-
tinguished note. As has already
! been announced, the well-known
Professor Elijah Zuludkowski has
accepted the directorship of the
organization.
As a rule, development in mu-
sical art is denied to those in whom
the musical quality lies dormant
because of the prohibitive price
which it exacts from its aspirants .
Such persons in Detroit are now
presented with a rare opportunity
to receive training and instruction

NEW YORK.—(J. T. A.)—Mor-
ris Rothenberg, chairman of the
Board of Trustees of the United
Palestine Appeal, was elected vice-
president of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America at a meeting of
the Zionist national executive corn-
mittee held art the Hotel Pennsyl-
tang*.
The vote for Mr. Rothenberg,
who succeeds Miss Henrietta Szold,
, now a member of the Palestine
Zionist Executvie, was unanimous.
Mr. Rothenberg who, as chair-
man of the National Board of the
Keren Ilayesod has been very ac-
tive in the Palestine fund raising
activities in the United States. has
taken a Reding part in the shap-
ing of the Zionist policies in this
country for the past decade.
In an address he delivered fol-
lowing his election to the vice-pres-
idency, Mr. Rothenberg called on
the Zionists throughout the coun-
try to abstain from further indul-
gence in self-criticism which has
been going on among Zionists since
their last annual convention in At-
lantic City. For the season of ac-
tive work and particularly for the
success of this year's campaign, it
is necessary that the Zionists de-
clare a truce and abstain from fur-
ther mutual criticism, he said. The
prospects of the campaign are good
and there is no doubt that if unity
is restored in the ranks of the or-
ganization, the respective commun-
ities will raise their quotas neces-
sary for continuing the work of
consolidation in Palestine and for
preparing the way of further pro-
gress, he declared.

A budget of $309,000 for 1928
was adopted by the Independent
Order B'nai ll'rith at the meeting
of its national executive committee
held in Cincinnati on Sunday, Dec.
II. This will be used primarily
for the extension work of the order,
including the Hillell Foundations
heated in American university cen-
ters; the Aleph Zadik Aleph, Jun-
ior order of the B'nai B'rith, the
Bureau in Mexico to aid Jewish im-
migrants, and the Anti-Defamation
League which is devoted to protect-
ing the Jewish name in this coun-
try against misrepresentations,
slander and libel.
A review of the work (lone
among the Jewish college youth by
the llillel Foundations, aroused
much enthusiasts and an appropri-
ation was made for the establish-
ment of another of these founda-
tions—this one at an Eastern un-
iversity. The Aleph Zadik Aleph,
an organization offering Jewish
youth wholesome social contacts
and cultural development, was re-
ported as having 64 chapters now
functioning in the United States.
One of the big events which the
junior order has scheduled for the
coming year is a national oratori-
cal tournament, to take place in
Milwaukee.
Some of the B'nai B'rith achieve-
ments of the past year that were
discussed at the meeting are: The
dedication of a home for the aged
in Memphis, Tenn.; the addition of
new buildings to the Erie Orphan
Asylum of Erie, I a.; and the pro-
gress of the $2,000,000 Building
Fund Campaign which will make
It possible to move the Jewish Or-
phan Home of Cleveland to a more
desirable location on the outskirts
of that city. The report on this
subject was regarded as specially
gratifying.
The successful negotiations with
General Will Hays, ('resident of
the Motion Picture Producers of
America, were reviewed in detail
by President Cohen, as well as the
activities of the Anti-Defamation
League in its effort to prevent the
showing of films derogatory to the
Jews.
Plans were outlined for the or-
ganization of a Speakers' Bureau
which will provide lecturers for
clubs, societies and open public
gatherings. A substantial amount
was voted the Leo N. Levi Memor-
ial Hospital of Hot Springs, Arkan-
sas, to make it possible for this in-
stitution to erect a clinic of its own.
Among the foreign enterprises of
the B'nai B'rith was reported the
maintenance of 212 war orphans in
Europe.
As an indication of the steady
growth of the order, it was an-
nounced that, during the year 1927,
23 new lodges were established in
the United States and nine in for-
eign countries.

in the tenets of Judaism and be-
lieved firmly in the synagogue.

the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations and the Hebrew
Union College, Mr. Miller was
