By FRANK BECKMAN IF YOU DROPPED in at any major Jewish social function at the University of Michigan, chances are you would see at least one Jew- ish athlete among the throng. This is an- other way of sa ying that Jewish athletes are very much a part of Jew- ish life on the campus. AS PART OF ITS program to bring comfort to convalescing servicemen, the Roy F.

Stars for Iowa By WILLIAM ZUKERMAN (Jewish World News Service) NEW YORK — The United States has clarified its position on Israel at the United Nations and did it in a manner that confirmed all the promises made by the President and the ad-. ministration before the election, although this has necessitated a near-breach on policy with a principal ally. Under the influence of the United States, other nations, particularly Canada and Au- stralia, also came out in favor of a new and more liberal policy for Israel. The general trend in the UN, after nearly two months of uncertainty, is now stronger and more hopeful than it has been since the historic resolu- tion of exactly a year ago. 2 Star for Iowa AT ANOTHER Big Nine insti- tution, the University of Iowa, two Jewish boys are expected to develop into standouts on the gridiron. Jerry Faske (picture elsewhere on this page), entered Iowa two years ago after compiling a bril- liant prep record at Boys High School in Brooklyn. He was the leading Greater New York scorer as a high school senior in 1946, rolling up 102 points. Acclaimed throughout N e w York as its leading scholastic back, Jerry was selected on Hearst newspapers' All-Ameri- can prep eleven. NO LOSS OF LAND • • • Impressive Runner JERRY FASKE, one of the best prep halfbacks ever developed in Greater New York, has two more years of competition at the University of Iowa. The Hawkeyes expect big things of him. (See "Our Athletes," col- umn 1). Eban at JDC Parley • • • Ginsberg Returns THE OTHER Iowa gridder is Lou Ginsberg, 21-year-old junior in the college of commerce. Lou, a guard, broke into the starting lineup at mid-season and was particularly outstanding as a line-backer on defense. He stands 5 feet 11 inches and weighs 190 pounds. Although he did not play last season, Ginsberg was a regular guard in seven games of the 1945 campaign before spending 18 months in die army". Upon graduation, he plans to enter the jewelry business with his father, Isadore Ginsberg, in Cedar Rapids, Ia. Zukerman Says: U. S. Keeps Pledge; UPA Split Averted • • • IN HIS FIRST yedr of colleg- iate play, Faske made a com- mendable record. 11e led Hawk- eye ball carriers in the rushing department with 290 yards, and his 4.1 yard average ranked fourth. Built on the short and square side, Jerry is 5 feet 8 inches, weighs 185 pounds and is 19 years old. He was unable to operate at top performance last season be- cause of minor leg and shoulder injuries. J W V The position of the United States, Canada and Australia at the present moment is in rough torial cuts are to be made with- terms as follows: First, no terri- out the consent of Israel. Sec- ond, all efforts of the UN are to be bent in the direction of direct peace negotiations be- tween Israel and the Arab states. Third, the basis of the nego- tiations is to be the partition plan of Nov., 1947, which in- cluded the whole of the Negev in the State of Israel. Fourth, if Israel desires to make any ter- ritorial changes because of its military occupation in the Gali- lee, it may do so by offering to exchange territory in the Negev for that of Galilee. . Fifth, Israel is to be admitted as a member of the UN. Sixth, the office of the mediator is to be abolished and a UN concilia- tion committee is to be created to facilitate peace negotiations. NEAR RECOGNITION . That this latest proposal of AUBREY EBAN, Israeli rep- resentative to the UN, speaks in Paris at the recent world- wide conference on Jewish rt- lief and rehabilitation, spons- ored by the Joint Distribution Committee. Delegates from 31 nations attended. the UN under the leadership of the U. S. is the best and nearest approach to a settlement in Palestine, no one but fanatics will deny. For the first time in a year of bitter debates and fighting, Israel is nearest to complete recognition as a state by the entire UN. Israel's territory remains in- tact and its political, military and moral position is stronger than anyone ever dreamed of as pos- sible a year ago when the UN issued its paper resolution. UPA SPLIT AVOIDED The split which was threaten- ing the United Palestine Appeal by the formation of an independ- ent fund-raising group of "Con- tributors and Workers" follow- ing the resignation of Henry Montor, has been averted by an agreement between representa- tives of the ZOA and of the dissident group. The agreement was a com- promise which could and should have been reached before the incident came into the open. It is based on the following points: First, the dissident organization is to be liquidated immediately. Second, the non-Zionist Jewish communities and welfare funds are to be represented in the UPA to the extent of 40 per- cent; (instead of 33 percent that was previously agreed upon). DANGER AVERTED Thirdly, the transmission of funds to Israel is to remain prac- tically unchanged. Fourth, the five UPA directors who resigned in sympathy with Montor are to be reinstated after consideration of each case on its merits by a special mediation committee. Mr. Montor's reinstatement was not even discussed, evidently by his own desire. The settlement does away with the serious danger that was threatening a disunited Ameri- can Jewry on the eve of one of its greatest fund raising cam- paigns in history. Congress Youth to Witness Play "Ours Is The Task," a stirring play on discrimination, will be enacted for a meeting of the Youth Division of the American Jewish Congress at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 8 at the Center. The play, written by Mrs. Harry Landsman, is to be pre- sented by the Women's Division under the direction of Mrs. Wal- ter Frank. THE DETROIT Ladies Aux- iliary will meet Monday at 11313 Linwood avenue. Hilda Goldberg, auxiliary pres- ident, and her committee will assist Commander Arthur Lang of the Detroit Post in the pres- entation of an American flag to Cub Pack 190 at 7:30 p. m., Wed- nesday, at the corner of Glynn court and Hamilton avenue. At a recent victory luncheon in the home of Mrs. Grace Hart of Boston boulevard, Mrs. Gold- berg presented awards to Rose Cowan, Minnie Hart, Birdie Ros- enberg, Hattie Cohen, Mae Gins- berg, Faye Teitelbaum and Edith Meskin. • PREPARATIONS have been started by the Robert Rafelson Post for its annual Chanukah project, the giving of food bas- kets to needy families.

Mor- ris of Louisville, Ky., was re- elected chairman of the national council of the Joint Defense Ap- peal (JDA). Max Osnos of De-. *Mt was named vice-chairman. Elected chairman of the coun- cil's executive committee was Oliver M. Kaufmann, Pittsburgh civic leader. He succeeds Donald Oberdorfer of Atlanta, Ga., who was named honorary chairman of the national council. . The JDA is the fund-raising arm of the American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defama- tion League of Bnai Brith, two national agencies devoted to com- bating anti-Semitism and pro- moting inter-group harmony. More than 300 delegates at- tending the annual parley rec- ommended a 1949 budget of $6- 826,115. Urging all Jewish communities to join in the nationwide drive against bigotry and discrimina- tion, the conference described re- ligious bigotry as a threat not only to the Jews, but to "the foundations of freedom and to the component groups which constitute our national fabric."
