THE 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
daring the summer.
Those chosen were S lid 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.

urday night at Bnai David S • n-
ogogue.

THANKS TO THE Diane Mal-
ernian 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."

CHRONICLE

Leadership in Life of City
Traced in Beth El's History

IT 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 (unfilled
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 THE 1920s, a bill was intro-
ouced in . the state legislature
to abolish private and p.aroPhial
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'Arcambal So-
ciety for rehabilitation of prison-
ers.
From this society grew the
Ford Republic of which he was
a director.
