THE

DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE

I Leadership in Life of City

By JOAN IIENCKEN
and JANET VOGEL

BBYO OFFICE is still
buzzing with talk of the AZA
regional spring meeting which
was held in Pontiac the week-
end of March 11. Most of the
AZA chapters in the state were
represented.
At the delegates meeting which
was called to order by Sid Ru-
benstein, regional aleph godol,
delegates were elected to rep-
resent our region at the AZA
national convention to be held
ddring the summer. •
Those chosen were gid Ruben-
stein, chapter 313, Paul Doner,
214, Mike Gale, Stephen Weiss,
George Blum, 656, and Morty
Demak, 604. The Pontiac chap-
ter acted as hosts under the
guidance of the Jason Goode,
aleph godol.
A vote of thanks goes to the
Pontiac chapter for a job well
done.
• • •
AT LAST THE BIG day has
arrived for the "Club Gay
Paree" which will be presented
by the FDR chapter of BrIG Sat-
urday night at Bnai David Syn-
ogogue.
You are invited to dance to
the music of Iry Fields. and his
band and laugh at the antics of
Irwin Posner master of cere-
monies.
There will be two complete
floor shows at 10 p.m. and at
11:30 p.m. This affair is one that
you cannot afford to miss, so,
conic on BBYO let's offer our
support.
Tickets are $1.50 per couple,
$1 stag and can be purchased
from any FDR girl, BBYO head-
quarters, or at the door.

THANKS TO THE Diane Mal-
email chapter of BBG there
were many happy faces at the

Baptist Childrens' Home on Sun-
day, March 5.
The entire chapter paid a visit
to the Home and brought with
them many laughs as they pre-
sented the play, "Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs."
The AZA jackets of the chap-
ter 313 boys who acted as chauf-
fers made a big hit with the
title fellows who tried them on
so that they too could act like
a "big boy."

EDDIE STEWART, Detroit-

DWC Spring Mart have been

news that you would like to
have printed in this cnIumn.
Please bring all articles or in-
formation' to the BBYO Head-
quarters, 11718 Dexter.

Traced in Beth El's History
I T IS INCUMBANT upon a re-

ligious organization and its
leaders to provide leadership in
the community and show the way
to progress and harmony. Temple
Beth El has more than fullfilled
this obligation.
As early as 1897 Rabbi Louis
Grossman took the lead in the
bitter fight against the introduc-
tion of religious teaching in the
public school system of Michigan.
When in 1893 the Detroit Cen-
tral High School burned, Temple
Beth El rose to the occasion and
offered the facilities of its Wash-
ington avenue building to the
Board of Education, which ac-
cepted.
• • •
IN TILE 1920s, a bill was intro-
ouced in the state legislature
to abolish private and parochial
schools. In the storm of protests
that arose the voice of Dr. Frank-
lin was foremost.
Rabbi Franklin was the first
and only rabbi to speak from the
pulpit of a Catholic church in his
effort to promote goodwill in the
city,
The plight of released prison-
ers in Michigan came to the at-
tention of Dr. Franklin and he
enthusiastically joined in the
foundation of the D'Arcarnbal So-
ciety for rehabilitation of prison-

SEEKING TO REACH a wider
public,. Dr. Franklin undertook
the writing of a weekly column
for the . Detroit Times, which he
continued for three years.- A
project of his which is still ob-
served - is the Citizen's Interde-
nominationaL Thanksgiving serv-
ice, the first in the country.
The present leader of Temple
Beth El has followed in the foot-
steps of his predecessor. Dr. B.
Benedict Glazer has taken a lead-
ing role in the elimination of
discriminatory literature in the
state tourist bureau. He was re-
cently cited as one of the seven
leading citizens of Detroit.
