Young Israel Elects
Abbe Levi National
Vice-President

Word has been received here
of the selection of Abbe A. Levi,
last year's president of Detroit
Young Israel, as vice president
for the state of Michigan of the
national Jewish religious youth
organization. Mr. Levi was a
member of the delegation of 15
young men and women who rep-
resented the ,local branch at the
30th annual convention of the
movement held in Atlantic City
several weeks ago. He also serves
as chairman of the Regional
Council for the Mid-West, which
includes groups in Chicago, St.
Louis, Kansas City, Cleveland and
Cincinnati.
As head of the membership
committee for Young Israel of
Detroit, Mr. Levi will have charge
during the coming year of a
number of activities designed to
acquaint the Jewish youth of this
city with the aims and purposes
of the organization. While no
meetings are being held during
July and August, next Sunday's
(July 26) outing to Bob-Lo will
serve as one such occasion. Mem-
bers of the general organization,
as well as the boys and girls of
the sub-senior, intermediate and
junior groups will join in the
day's social and athletic program.
Other Jewish young men and wo-
men are invited to participate and
will be welcomed by a committee
at the Woodward Ave. Pier at
9:00 a. m. The boat will leave
at 10 o'clock.
