The House League, the dele-
gated body representing the en-
tire membership of the Jewish
Community Center, in conjunc-
tion with sonic of the major Jew-
ish youth groups in the commu-
nity, has embarked upon a pro-
gram which will give Jewish
youth the opportunity of express-
ing itself on vital questions of
the day. "Youth Speaks", as the
series of programs will be known,
will reflect youths' opinions on
such questions as war and peace,
Christian-J e w i s h relationships,
Jewish education, religion, voca-
tional guidance, Zionism and
anti-Semitism.
The first program has been
scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 18,
at 8:15 p. m. The discussion will
feature a town-hall forum on the
subject: "Jewish Youth Looks for
a Job." A prominent speaker will
serve as moderator of the pro-
gram and three outstanding Jew-
ish youths from the community
will be the discussants. After
these presentations the audience
will be privileged to enter into
the discussion, directing ques-
tions at any of the speakers. A
social hour will follow the pro-
gram.
T h e following organizations
are co-sponsoring the "Youth
Speaks" series along with the
House League: Shaarey Zedek
and Temple Beth El Young Peo-
ple's Societies, Little Women of
