SAMUEL KAPLAN
"The Yeshivah Boehm."

New York, Mr. Kaplan is not only
the br wIcaster but is also the
author of the skits he presents
for an ever-growing audience.
Mr. Kaplan has had a colorful
career. He studied for the rab-
binate at the Isaac Elchanan Ye-
shiva. Previous to that he was a
student at the College of the City
of Detroit which preceded the or-
ganization of Wayne University
here. He is a graduate accountant.
His radio feature is presented
under the title "The Yeshivah
Bochu•)" by the Mesivtha Ti-
fereth Jerusalem, a Hebrew
parochial high school at 145 E.
Broadway, N. Y., every week.
The "Yeshivah Bochur" pro-
gram depicts to its radio listeners
great historical characters of the
Jewish race who are outstanding
in the fields of medicine, art,
science and government; who have
been widely acclaimed by the
great rulers of their day for their
contribution in their respective
fields. The broadcast is in the
Yiddish language.
"The Yeshivah Bochur" is a
recitation feature. The personified
"Yeshivah Bochur" tells Jewish
stories. They are not, however,
random or pointless stories as the
material is carefully selected out
of the most fascinating chapters
in Jewish history and the rich

treasure-house of Jewish folk-lore.
The script is masterfully prepared
in dramatic style and presented
with superb skill.
"The Yeshivah Bochur" fea-
ture is now in its third year. Dur-
ing this time it has won a large
and enthusiastic audience. This
program appeals to all classes and
types of radio listeners as indi-
cated by the hundreds of letters
of praise and appreciation On file.
The average person is attracted
by the contest of the stories; the
cultured audience appreciates its
artistic form of presentation, and
the rabbi and Hebrew school
teacher find the material useful
in the pulpit and Sunday school
classes.
His programs have become so
popular that there are requests
for him to present them elsewhere
and records of them are being
made for use both on radio and
in private presentations. They
are especially useful for presenta-
tion as prgrams by organizations.
They can be secured from Mr.
Kaplan at his office, 122 East
42nd St., New York.

PLEASE KEEP OUT

For some time Leon, render-
son, master of the initials which
spell out Office of Price Admin-
istration and Civilian Supply,
had been hinting strongly that
Jewish organizations and other
groups that usually hold their
conventions in Washington should
keep away from the Capitol and
find themselves another conven-
tion rendezvous. Well, boys and
girls, the hinting season is over.
Mr. Henderson has issued what
is tantamount to an order, and
the result is that all our national
Jewish organizations which look-
ed to Washington as the Mecca
will have to go elsewhere. The
United Palestine Appeal, which
assembles at its national confer-
ence in Washington every year,
will be among the organizations
affected by the new "keep-the-
road - clear - for - the - defense -
effort" policy.
