A young chappie, who definitely
is set to grab off a few headlines
during the coming year under the
title, "home boy makes good," Is
Jack Fine, formerly of the U. S.
Service Forces. Jack, half-pint in
size, finally broke into that inner
circle of those who get music pub-
lished, after struggling for ten
years. His lucky break happened
only a few months back while he
was stationed at Ft. Sheridan, Ill.,
doing orientation work for the
Reception Center.
Since then, Fine has sold seven
of his tunes to publishing houses
who are recording „them on discs
and publishing the sheet music.
Watch for these songs which are
set for early release: "I Can't
Make Up My Mind," "Taking My
Chances With You," "Texas and
Pacific," "Iles - o - vus - e," "Rodeo
Rose" and "When Buddy Blows
His Trombone." Tim Morrow Pro-
duction of Chicago is handling his
work. No wonder the Pi Tau'a
are throwing open their house
every nite to their "boy."

aim will be celebrated In
itnifsrooms of all branches of the
United Hebrew Schools in the
form of Purim playlets in Hebrew
,ind English, singing parties and
games.
Much time is being devoted to
the history and development of
the holiday, and to the manner in
which this holiday was celebrated
at different times in different
countries where Jewish people liv-
ed. Particular stress is laid on the
manner in which it has been cel-
ebrated of late in Palestine, and
especially in the city of Tel Aviv.
Bagley Hebrew School
Runs History Contest
Pupils of the Bagley Branch of
the United Hebrew Schools held
a contest on the subject of that
portion of history which is con-
tained in the books of Genesis and
Exodus.
The following are the prize win-
ners: Teddy Gans, Geraldine Po-
sen and Larry Warren, with Nor-
man Benjamin, Babette Kohn and
Albert Resnick, runners-up.
Mr. Michael Michlin, the prin•
cipal of the branch, prepared the
original material used by the chil-
dren in their study for the con-
test.

Max Baron, Ex-Vet,
Heads Zack Catering
Returning to Detroit after three
years of service in the army, Max
Baron has taken over the Man-
agership of Zack's Kosher Cater-
ing Company formerly Lachar's
Kosher Catering Company.
Baron did not wait to be drafted
in the army but enlisted of his
own accord. He spent two years
in the Pacific area where he was
with the seventh, thirteenth and
twentieth groups connected with
the Seventeenth Weather Squad-
ron. He saw service at Guadalcanal,
New Caledonia, Hawaii and the
Marianas and, when discharged at
Fort George Meade in Maryland,
had attained the rank of Ser-
geant.
On February 14, of this year,
Baron married Mr. and Mrs. Peter
Zack's daughter, Shirley, and
after looking about, decided to
enter into the catering business
with his in-laws. In this decison,
he was prompted by a desire to
help people enjoy their festive oc-
casions. He is entering into the
catering business' in order to help
such people get the most out of
their entertainment and the Zack
Catering Company will specialize
in this.
"I think I know what newly
weds want because I was so re-
cently in that position myself," he
said. "We are in a position to
give newly weds the kind of af-
fair they will remember for the
rest. of their lives."

Big Sam Goldfarb, 20-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Gold-
farb, of 2753 Hazelwood Ave.,
didn't wait a minute after his
election to the presidency of
Wayne University's newly-formed
Hillel Chapter to start the ball
rolling. With 400 members in the
organization, Sam revealed that
he has hopes of increasing that
figure to 1000 as soon as possible.
After talking to this curly-haired
individual, We think he will do it.
Back in 1944 when Sam was at-
tendng Cass Tech High School,
he was already building a founda-
tion in the leadership field. In ad-
dition to being president of the
Letterman's Club and Sports Edi-
tor of the school yearbook, Sam
was holding down a regular out-
field position on the Cass baseball
team. Now an Industrial Educa-
tion Sophomore at Wayne, Sam
continues to be No. 1 man in his
undertakings.
"The Hillel Foundation attempts
to serve as the liaison between
the Jewish student body and the
survival values of Jewish life,"
said Goldfarb, in summing up the
organization's general purposes.
With Sam at the helm, the Chap-
ter will do just that — and do
it well.
VETERANS . . .
Almost a year ago to the day,
ex-Marine Kenny Shatz, son of
Mr. and Mrs. B. Shatz, of 2209
Pasadena Ave., was witnessing
the historic flag-raising ceremo-
nies on Iwo Jima. That was on
the fourth day following the inva-
sion of the island by U. S. Leath-
ernecks, and at that time Kenny
was more interested in reading
history than going down in it.
Back in mufti, he finds a Liberal
Arts course at Wayne far more
inviting than knocking around the.
Pacific with Lt. Gen. Holland
Smith's Fleet Marine Forces.
When graduation time rolls
around a few years hence, Kenny
hopes to go into the real estate
field.
Formal organization proceed-
ings of the new Temple Israel
Ycuth Group will take place at
2:30 p.m., Sunday, at a meeting in
room 615 of the Boulevard Bldg.
Ratification of the group's con-
stitution will be followed by elec-
tion of officers. Young men and
women of the congregation and
others in the community between
the ages of 18 and 30 are invited
to join the Youth Group's activi-
ties, according to Lenora Gaines,

When husky Billy Zupnitsky
was playing on a champion Army
basketball team in England, he
thought he really had a good deal.
When Bill's jeep was shot up by
Germans around Antwerp a few
months later, he began to wonder.
The Jerries were battling to hold
the British out of that key sea-
port at the time, and Bill, attach.
ed to the English 21st Army
Group was detailed to take an
important message back to Gen.
Jacobs in Le Havre. He got the
information back but only after
the German snipers had thorough-
ly riddled his vehicle.
Bill, 23-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Ben Zupnitsky, of 3005 Chi-
cago Blvd., spent two and a half
years overseas, and like many
other GIs has a certain feeling of
nostalgia for cities like London,
Paris and Brussels. He plans to
try out for Wayne's football and
basketball squads next year, and
after graduation will work for his
father's NRO Leather Watch Strip
