r- L rt • DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE Page Sixteen OUR ATHLETES Thursday, September 15, 190 Moil to Tel Aviv JWV Sammy Renick Makes $3,650 Bulletin —or Does He? By MITCHELL TENDLER ROUNDS for Taking the Gas- pipe Dept.: A short while ago, the former Jewish jockey Sammy Renick paid a visit to the Bel- mont Park race track. Sammy's kid brother, Joey, had a couple of mounts going that day. One of the horses that Joey was riding 4 was a plater lame of Orange • fun who was en- tered in the fourth race. For sentiment- al, or other reas- Tendler sons, which is no concern of ours anyway, Sammy plunked in a 50 dollar bill on Orange Sun. • When the shouting had died down, and the "official" sign had flashed on the tote board, mak- ing the $147.20 payoff on Orange Sun legitimate, Sammy toddled blithely over towards the $50 cashier's window, emptying his pockets on the way to make room for the $3,650 to which he was entitled for the splendid job he had done in doping out Orange Sun. Lt. Eli Levin Post has complet- ed plans for its annual past com- manders dinner. The combined dinner will include the past auxiliary presidents. The affair is set for 6 p.m., Oct. 9. at North- wood Inn. Guest speaker will be Tony Weitzel. Tickets are $9 per couple and can be obtained from Post Commander Harry Mayers. For information, call UN. 3-9926. G • • • Where, Oh Where—? SAMMY REACHED THE win- dow, and inasmuch as there were only two $50 tickets sold on Orange Sun in the whole of Bel- mont Park, he had no line what- soever to contend with. With visions of sugar plums and $3,650 dancing in his head. Sam- my reached down to where the ticket was supposed to be, and whadyouknow? Yup, no ticket. Sammy reported the matter to the Belmont Park officials and since there were only the two $50 tickets sold (the other holder hav- ing cashed his in and gone by way of Sandusky long ago), a report made the rounds that Sammy would be reimbursed next April after the books had been tabbed. • • • No Tickee, No— THIS REPORT, however, turn- ed out to be wishful thinking. Ac- cording to state tax and treasury department officials, Sammy will not receive the $3,650—unless he can produce the ticket. So you want to beat the ponies, hmmmm? • • • Sid Hitting .295 N. Y. GIANTS third-baseman Sid Gordon is playing hide-and- seek with the .300 mark. Sid hit in the neighborhood of .315 all year, only to fall into a late-sea- son slump, dropping to .295. To top it all, he twisted his knee and was out for two weeks. While the teams who are hope- lessly out of the running are ex- perimenting for next year, how- ever, Sid should be able to pick up the hits needed to bring him above the coveted .300 mark. • • • Rotlatt at 7-7 MARV ROTBLATT, the form- er University of Illinois star left- hander, has won seven and lost the same number for the seventh- place Memphis Chicks of the Southern Association. He is the property of the Chicago White Sox. Hal Saltzman chalked up his 18th win as against 11 losses for Portland with a six hit, 6-3 de- cision over Sacramento, making him almost a lockup for a 20 P" game season. Saul Rogovin has now won 14 for Buffalo. lie has lost five. • • • Solel Boneh crews clear the roadbed for the railway link be- tween Hedera and Tel Aviv, which will speed traffic between Israel's capital and the main port of Haifa.

Aid U.S. Youth 80 Pro-Nazi in Israeli War Newspapers WASHINGTON—(WNS)—Two congressmen are leading the fight for legislation to aid eight Ameri- can Jews awaiting trial in Los Angeles on charges of smuggling aircraft and military equipment out of the U.S. to Israel. They are Rep. Franklin D. Roosevelt. Jr., New York, and George A. Smathers, Florida. Roosevelt and Smathers are rallying support for a bi-partisan bill introduced in Congress on July 26. The bill would grant amnesty to those who fought in the Near East or who shipped arms to the countries affected by the United Nations arms em- bargo. Loss of citizenship may be the penalty fur allegiance to a foreign military command while the ship- ment of arms is a criminal offense. RESTORE CITIZENSIIIP The bill provides that those who served with the Israeli or Arab armies could regain their citizenship by taking a naturali- zation oath. Those who shipped arms would be relieved from prosecution. Penalties would be waived for the time between Sept. 15, 1947 and Jan. 31, 1949. The proposed immunity period would not only save the eight California Jews from prosecution but would also cover the cases of Irwin Schindler, New York, and Charles Winters, a former army pilot, of Miami. Winters faces a $10,000 fine and a long prison term. He has en- tered an appeal. A plea of guilty was entered by Schindler and he received a suspended sentence. TRIAL IN OFFING If the amnesty bill is not pass- ed, the trial of the eight will be held in Los Angeles on Sept. 27. Those indicted include Adolph W. Schwimme•, Abraham J. Levin, Leon Gardner, William Sosnow, Herman Greenspun, Ray Selk, J. Leonard, and Elynor Rudnick. The defendants are charged in the main indictment with con- spiracy to export aircraft and aircraft parts to Israel without proper license.

Get 'Go' Sign MUNICH—(WNS)—As a re- sult of the abolition of the Amer- ican military government's li- censing laws, 106 German-lan- guage newspapers, including about 80 pro-Nazi ones, are ex- pected to appear in Bavaria soon. The pro-Nazi newspapers will re- tain the names under which they published during the Hitler re- gime. Included among the new news- paper publishers will be Max Willmay, who was the publisher of the Jew-baiting paper "Der Stuermer," whose editor, Julius Streicher, was hanged at Nurem- berg as a war criminal. Pro-Nazi publishers, it is re- ported, have organized an asso- ciation with a capital of two million marks for the purpose of driving out of business the more liberal publishers who have been licensed by the American mili- tary government since the war's end. The pro-Nazi publications, which have hitherto been on the American "black" or "gray" list, are expected "to revive chauvin- ism, rabble-rousing, f eeling against displaced persons, anti- Semitism and anti-Americanism," declared an American military spokesman.

Israel to Start Reforestation TEL AVIV — (Special) — A large-scale reforestation project to rebuild the barren areas of Israel is being started, the New York Times reported. The plan, which is being launched under the auspices of the Jewish Agency by the Jew- ish National Fund, is designed to provide a widespread oppor- tunity for employment of new im migrants. The agency also plans to con- vert most of the immigrants' camp, into work districts for the ahle bodied, by the establishment of industries and citrus groves nearby. Those unable to work will be transferred to other areas in order to relieve the housing shortage. It is hoped that by March of next year all families and individuals will be living un- der normal conditions with com- plete privacy.
