Miss Eisman will relinquish the
presidency of the Health Educa-
tion Major Club when she grad-
uates in June. She will not, how-
ever, foresake four years of health
education training, as she plans
to teach this subject while work-
ing for her Master's Degree.
Some time this summer, the
name Eisman will again appear
in this newspaper. This time it
will be under the caption "Wed-
dings." Fred Rosen; Wayne alum-
nus, will be the lucky fellow.

VETERANS . .
Hubert Sidlow, 22, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Ben Sidlow, of 2500
Glynn Ct., was the second veteran
to return to Wayne University.
That was in February of '44, three
months after he was discharged
from the Army Air Forces at
Sioux City, Iowa.
As a radio operator on B-24
heavy bombers, Sidlow was sta-
tioned in camps from coast to
coast. He was training to go over-
seas but never made the jaunt.
On May 1, Hubert and his fa-
ther opened the Ben S. Sidlow In-
surance Agency, 301 Transporta-
tion Bldg. Young Sidlow will con-
centrate on the GI end of the
business, and feels that as a vet-
eran he will be better able to ad-
vise along that line. He would
like to help vets in their insur-
ance problems, if only from a per-
sonal angle.
Now a business administration
junior, Sidlow plans to finish
school before devoting full time to
business. He is on the Hillel Coun-
cil at Wayne.
MAX SNYDER . .
Virtually every GI who has
spanned an infiltration course at
night remembers the sight of trac-
er bullets whizzing over his head.
Max Snyder, 21-year-old Wayne U.
freshman, saw one from a dif-
ferent angle.
Snyder was digging in around
St. Milo, France, when the Ger-
mans opened up. His excavating
was interrupted suddenly when
a bullet passed cleanly between
his legs. He dug the missile out
of the side of his foxhole and now
carries it as a token of a "close
call."
In December of '45, Snyder
walked out of Camp Atterbury,
Stresses Trust
Among Faiths
NEW YORK - - "Protestants,
Catholics and Jews should re-
solve to trust each other as equal-
ly patriotic Americans, to meet
r•nd talk with one another when
misunderstandings or disputes
arise rather than rush upon daises
or into public print with criticisms
or challenges," stated Everett R.
Clinchy, president of the National
Conference of Christians and
Jews, in his annual Passover- Eas-
ter message.
"As Christians and Jews simul-
taneously observe their holy days,
Jews their Passover and Chris-
tians their Easter, it is well for
them to stress the principles
which they profess in common
Among them must he counted
faith in God, the obligation of the
moral law of which that faith is
the sanction, and the support, as
citizens of the American principle
of religious liberty," he added.
The National Conference of
Christians and Jews, sponsor of
Brotherhood Week, was founded
in 1928 to further justice, amity,
understanding, and cooperation
among Protestants, Catholics, and
Jews throughout the country. The
National Conference has 55 full-
time offices in the principal cities
of the United States and 300 part-
time committees operating in otn•
er communities.

UNDESERVED FREE RIDE . .
When Joseph Cardinal Minds-
zenthy, Primate of Hungary, was
recently refused passage to Rome,
an American army plane trans-
ported him to the Vatican. .
Now the Cardinal "paid back"
our democracy for its generous
gesture by demanding that Jews
in Hungary be withdrawn from
positions in the police and peo-
ple's court. . . Mindszenthy dis-
graces the office of Cardinal and
the American military commander

blush. . . But does he?
