For this sixth week of its sea-
son at the Masonic Auditorium,
The Civic Light Opera Associa-
tion is presenting Romberg's
"The Desert Song"—a thrilling
romance of North Africa and the
Riff country, tied together by
the most lilting music the gifted
Romberg ever turned out.
The story, too, is applicable to
the times, for it's this same

The panorama, with its desert
background, picturesque Foreign
Legion uniforms, haughty Arabs
and their veiled women, provide

famed "Riff" song and the pe-
rennial favorite "One Alone".
The cast is headed by Su-
zanne Fisher, a Metropolitan
Opera star, and Walter Cassel,
both newcomers to the Civic
Opera ranks. The remainder of
the cast includes many who have
already established themselves as
local favorites: Clarence Nord-
srom, Eric Matton, Melissa Ma-
son, Madelyn Killeen, Melton
Moore, Joseph Macaulay, Gor-
don Dilworth, Frederic Person
and several others,

Reading from left to right the picture above shows: Seymour
J. Cohn, Detroit representative; W. P. Riley, president; H. W.
Manning, vice president and managing director; and H. A. H.
Baker, assistant general manager.
Detroit is very much on the map as far as the Great-West
Life Assurance Company is concerned. Shown above, Seymour J.
Cohn, Detroit representative of the company, is receiving congratu-
lations from W. P. Riley, company president, on his outstanding
achievement in producing over $1,000,000 of business during 1943,
and for successfully qualifying for membership in the Million-
Dollar Round Table of the National Association of Life Under-
writers, which honor is achieved by few. In a ceremony which took
place at the company's head office, where Mr. Cohn attended the
annual meeting, he was presented with a parchment scroll in recog-
nition of his outstanding year's work. Mr. Cohn has been with
the company's Detroit branch, which operates under the manage-
ment of Arthur P. Johnson, for 13 years and has always been
one of the leading producers.

Kvutzah Ivrith Affair
Carried Out in Hebrew

The Chamisho Osor b'Shvat
celebration of the Kvutzah Ivrith,
the Hebrew Cultural Group of
Detroit, which took place Satur-
day evening, Feb. 12, in the au-
ditorium of the Rose Sittig Co-
hen Bldg., was unique in its
character. The entire program,
which was all in Hebrew, was
sponsored and carried out by the
women Hebraists of the Kvutzah.
The chairman was Mrs. Yonina
Mathis. She also gave a digest
of Yitzchok Lamdon's famous
poem "Masada". Mrs. Ruth Cha-
pin read excerpts from the Pal-
estinian sketch writer, Moshe Vil-
konsky. Mrs. Solomon Kasdan de-
livered an interesting address on
the meaning of Chamisho Osor
b'Shvat and the manner in which
it is observed.
Miss Miriam Gold spoke about
that famous poetess, Elishevah.
She gave a digest of one of Eli-
shevah's most noted books of
poems entitled "A Small Goblet".
This poetess is a unique phen-
omenon in the history of modern
Hebrew literature. Elishevah, a
Christian daughter raised in a
Christian world, studied the He-
brew language and became so
enamored with the Hebrew litera-
ture and Hebraic thoughts that
she settled in Palestine and be-
came one of the famous Hebrew
poets.
' Palestinian songs were sung by
Mrs. Faye Ackerman and Miss
Drora Selesny. A special and in-
teresting feature was a group
of Palestinian and Chassidic songs
rendered by Mrs. Morris Plafkip.
She was accompanied at the pi-
ano by Miss Bella Goldberg.
Chamisho Osor b'Shvat refresh-
ments, consisting mainly of fruits
grown in Palestine, were served
by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the
Kvutzah. The chairman of this
group is Mrs. Aaron D. Markson,
and the committee consists of
Mrs. A. DeRoven, Mrs. A. Pan-
ush, Mrs. D. Garber and Mrs. A.
Vilenkin.
