DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and The Legal Chronicle fags Sixteen • Our Athletes By FitANK BECKMAN FOR A TIRED, OLD man, Mr. Henry Greenberg, who wears a big number five on the back of his. Detroit Tiger uniform, still hits a mighty long ball. Hank, who resembles Goliath's brother in size, went on a bril- liant late sea- son batting splurge, to re- fute the many critics who said he was washed up. Looking over the 1946 base- ball records, we Beckman find that'Green- beg led the American League both in home runs and runs bat- ted in. His 44 circuit clouts were second only to the 58 he blasted in 1938. In addition, the 127 men he drove across home plate enabled him to top highly-touted Ted Wil- liams by four. Almost all doubt about Ilank's playing next season appears to have vanished. Under the new club owners' agreement to limit pay cuts to not more than 25 per cent of what a player re- ceived the previous year, Green- berg should haul down about $45,000 In 1947 if his salary is cut. And as they say in Bratislavia, "that ain't hay." • • • THOSE WHO ATTEND the Michigan-Army game at Ann Ar- bor Saturday will see two Jewish gridders in action . . . on oppos- ing teams. Dan Dworsky, awkward but powerful fullback who halls from Sioux City, will wear the Wolverine colors, while Russ Do- holstein will fill in at one of the tackle posts for the cadets. Russ has a brother Bob playing with the New York Giants. • • • BOWLERS IN THE North- west Hebrew Congregation Men's Club League have been hitting the head pin with Joe Norris preclision. High games record- ed thus far are George Roth, 211; Sam Bicoll, 210; Dave Aa- ron, 210; A. Schultz, 209, and M. Shulman, 202. Dave Penner leads bowlers with a 182 aver- age, followed closely by Sam Mager, 181, and Sam Bicoll, 180. • • • AL LEIDERMAN dropped in at the Bowl-O-Drome recently for a few practice games. Before he left, he had striked and spared for a 636 series, on games of 210, 203 and 223. MARSHAL "BIGGIE" Goldberg didn't play much in the Chicago Cardinal's rout Sept. 30 of the Detroit Lions, but Coach Jimmie Congelman can still count on the fleet-footed halfback for an of- fensive spark. Goldberg, if you will remember, won All-American honors at Pittsburgh during the golden era of Clark Shaunessey. Pitt that year was the toast of the nation. • • • BERNIE FRIEDMAN tells us basketball prospects at Wayne University are looking b et t e r. Friedman, who played at DeWitt Clinton High in New York before coming to Highland Park Junior College and subsequently to Wayne, was one of four Jewish members of the Tartar cage squad last winter. The others were Abe Far- ness, Ben Weinberg and Danny Arnold. After six straight wins in 1945-46, the green and gold quintet dropped 11 straight for a .353 average. • • • HARSH WORDS WERE ex- . changed between prexy George Halas of the Chicago Bears and a rival professional football club owner over Sid Luckman, Bear's passing great. Seems the ex- Columbia star was being lured away from Hales' club with a magnet covered with many more greenbacks than the $15,000 he now getts yearly. • • • GOODY ROSEN, New York Giant's outfielder, has made up with Eddie Stanky, Dodger second baseman. They staged a post-mor- tem of the Louis-Mauriello fight with a two-minute bout of their own during a game at the Polo Grounds. When Brooklyn fans threw an Eddie Stanky Day at Ebbetts Field, Rosen appropriately presented his fistic rival with a pair of boxing gloves . Mrs. J.H.

Friday, October 11, 1946 Detroit Jews Married in Dachau 2 (Continued from page 1) There was an organ and a fine German tenor to sing "Because" before the ceremony began, and SS prisoner musicians to play the wedding march. The bride came walking down the aisle on the arm of Col. How- ard F. Bresce, a picture of ra- diance in white. She carried a bouquet of gladiolas and white carnations and calla lillies — all white as her beautiful parachute gown and white lace veil. A colonel down front in the aisle seat—the senior army of- flier present, rose and all the audience rose with him and stood throughout the short ceremony. For many it was the first Jew- ish ceremony that they had wit- nessed. • • • HATREDS FORGOTTEN FOR A MOMENT, all the guests forget where they were, for a moment they were all one, com- panionable, warm hearted group of people watching a beautiful and solemn ceremony before God. Ha- treds, conqueror, conquered, Ger- man, Jew, Catholic and Protestant —all were one. All were seated in an assembly df people to watch two people united. Then came the awaited words: "I now pronounce you man and wife. God bless you and may you be very, very happy for the rest of your lives." "Mazel Tov." Imagine, the word, 'Mazel Toy' openly spoken at a wedding in Camp Dachau. Then a feeling of gayety and comradeship came over the crowd. Everyone kissed the bride and wished her happl- WOULD YOU . LET ness. There was a h uff t dinner served and plenty of a dan c e good FTrhenechmupsuicnebh. e began playing music. GI's danced with officers wives, fraulein with Yanks, civil. tan with civilian and German with German. There were no barriers. As one colonel said to the bride, "It is good to see these people together and have them realize that Ger- mans, officers, GI's and civilians can get together, have fun and enjoy each other's company. Wr1 should have more marriages o this kind In Germany." Crum and Wallace Speech Links Cited (Continued from page 3) could hardly have called for a full scale investigation of charges made by a private individual it can and did openly disclaim similar charges made by a mem- ber of the Cabinet. This made it quite clear that the Administra- tion did not go along with the expressions of either man. It seemed to indicate that fall. ure to repudiate the earlier charg. es did not imply tacit White House agreement with the ideas ex- pressed by Bartley Crurh. By these recent events the President has indicated that he will not give encouragement to the implication that the State De- partment is not doing what he expressly bids it to do.

There's no charge for her visit—no obligation to you. And it's a real "ounce of protection" for your family's eyesight. But—a flickering fire is no more difficult to study by—no more tiring on the eyes— than too much or too little electric light. FOUR WAYS TO GET THE MOST FROM YOUR LIGHTING- • • • British Informed of U. S. Support LONDON (JTA)-Stressing that the U. S. support of the Jewish Agency plan of a "viable Jewish state" in Palestine had been com- municated to the British govern- ment as early as August, a state- ment Issued here by the Jewish Agency office said that President Truman's remarks cannot have occasioned surprise in British of- ficial circles, as has been indicated. It challenged the accusation by a Foreign Office spokesman that Jewish non-participation in the Palestine conference led to its "adjournment," and said that Its present talks with the govern- ment are aimed at securing Agency participation in the Lon- don talks and easing the tension in Palestine. Representatives of the Agency resumed their informal discussions Tuesday morning, when they met with Arthur Creech-Jones, who was elevated to the colonial min- istry last week-end to succeed George Hall, who became first Lord of the Admiralty. . Our lights aren't poor, you say? But are you sure? Lights can be very deceptive. You can grow so accustomed to a particular lamp that you won't realize its light is tiring. You may not notice it, but another lamp may glare enough to make a youngster instinctively squint—may cause headaches or even harmful eyestrain. There is one way, though, that you can be certain about your lights. Ask an Edison Home Service Advisor to call.
