on that night.

one of the most
improved bowl
ers in North-
Beckman west Congrega-

his average is only 141, that mark
is still .21 points better than it
was 19 weeks ago. His showing
has been a big reason why his

Mizrachi Pioneers
to Study at Center
NEW YORK—The eagerness of
American Jewish youth .to parti-
cipate in the battle for a free
Palestine was epitomized by the
establishment recently of the Bet
Hechalutz (pioneer house) by Ha-
poel Hamizrachi of America.
' The house, a four story struc-
ture at 30 E. 3rd street, was pur-
chased by the organization for
the purpose of providing a center
for the industrial training of
American Jewish youth who are
anxious to go to Eretz Israel and
participate in its upbuilding.
Rabbi Simon Federbush, presi-
dent of Hapoel Hamizrachi, said
that "the establishment of the
Bet Hechalutz signifies the begin-
ning of a new phase in the parti-
cipation of American Jewry in the
battle of Zion. Henceforth, Pales-
tine's industrial needs, and not
only its agricultural requirements,
will be taken into consideration
in the training of pioneers for the
Holy Land."
The first group of Hapoel Ha-
mizrachi pioneers has already es-
tablished itself in the Bet Hecha-
lutz as a cooperative, along the
lines of a collective settlement in
Palestine.
A machine shop is being instal-
led there where the Chalutzim
will acquire experience in trades
such as tool making, mechanics,
general machinists. Special courses
in radio, and radar are being giv-
en by discharged veterans.
ARTHUR RUBIN of Brook-
lyn finished second in the
world's three-cushion billiard
tournament with six wins and
two setbacks. Winner was the
perennial champion, Willie
Iloppe.
