Blesses Temple Israel Children
By FRANK BECKMAN
GIVEN THE following clues,
would you be able to identi-
fy the football great we have
in mind?
He's 21 years old, a native
of Sioux Falls, S.D., stands six
feet one inch,
weighs 210
pounds.
A senior, he
is majoring in
architecture.
Scholastical 1 y,
he's a B-aver-
age student.
Among his
other talents,
he's a piano
Beckman virtuoso, equal-
ly a.i.‘pt at playing the classics
or boogie woogie.
Having trouble?
Miybe this information will
help. He holds down a center
position and is used principally
on defense. A three-year vet-
eran of the gridiron, he will be
given serious consideration when
the all-American teams are se-
lected.
You should be getting hot
now.
Off season, he's a member of
his school's wrestling team. Be-
fore being converted to the pivot
slot, he was a fullback.
And this should give him
away ... He's a member of the
University of Michigan eleven.
That's right, he's Danny Dwor-
sky.
The four and five year old children pictured above received tie blessing by Rabbi Leon Fram as they
began
their
career
of Jewish education at Temple Israel. From left to right, the children are: Bottom row, Lois Wittenberg,
