A series of trips to Ann Arbor

By Danny Raskin --
FOLLOWING A STORY, car-
ried recently in The Jewish News
about Pfc. Benno Levi, our for-
mer staff member, being in
Guam, word is received about an
incident which places him among
the top heroes ,:
of this war . . .
It was during
one of the en- i,
gagements
his company had
been ordered to
seize a strategic
Mountain . .
Just before
reaching their
objective,
friendly planes Pfc. Levi
mistook the troops for enemy
columns and began strafing and
bombing them . • . Well, with
all the men lying flat on their
face, little Benno, disregarding
his own safety, jumped up,
grabbed the divisional banner,
and while exposing himself to
fire on all sides kept waving it
back and forth until the planes
discovered their error and ceased
. . This bit of heroism saved
many American casualties, and
for it, a regimental order came
to Guam telling of his exploit
and stating that he is to receive
the Silver Star for "Gallantry
in Action". . Benno escaped to
the United States from Germany
in 1935, and has certainly proved
himself an American we're all
mighty proud of.

Phil's wife, Del Parker, is in

"middle-aisle" it at the Statler,

blowing an outstanding trumpet
with Hank Finney's orch. at the

TWO PLATINUM HAIRED
dollies at one of the Tiger-Yankee
ganies, last • week, were getting
more attention than our pennant-
bound fellows . . It may have
been just an occurrence, but
when one ordered a bag of pea-
nuts from old Sam Drapkin,
who's been tossing the goobers
since Frank Navin's day, he al-
most stumbled on a step getting
up there ... A reporter probably
asked his editor what mention
he might make of two blondes
who made a fuss at the game,

Operations, who long have taken
a leading part in religious activi-
ties of this theater, assisted with
the services when military per-
sonnel of the Jewish faith cele-
brated Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur.
Within military expediency,
officers and enlisted personnel
of the theater took time off
from work to observe the holy-
days, it was announced by the
commanding general. Wherever
necessary, transportation was
provided to the services.
More than 30 different centers
in Italy, North Africa and
France conducted services with-
in the radius of Allied Force
Headquarters in Italy. Fifteen
Jewish chaplains officiated all
over the theater. Wherever WACs
are stationed, they were prom-
inently featured - in the services,
particularly in the recitations of
special prayers, Chaplain Henry
Tavel stated.
Among the Jewish WACs who
will observe the holydays in
Italy are:
Cpl. Charlotte Friedman, 205
N. Lin-coln Ave., Bay City, and
Sgt. Ethel Manason, 2628 Fuller
ton Ave., Detroit.

Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Katz of

Air Force, are both in Detroit
on leave from overseas duty. -
Storekeeper 2/c Katz, 20, a
graduate of Northwestern High
School, enlisted in 1941 before
Pearl Harbor and was stationed
at Miami, Fla. From there he was
sent to Norfolk, Va., and while
there went on several missions,
among them trips to Casablanca
and to Trinidad. Before return-
ing home on his first furlough in
19 months, he spent four months
in a hospital in North Africa. A
recipient of the Purple Heart, he
will remain here for 30 days.
Storekeeper 2/c Katz received
his Jewish education in the Unit-
ed Hebrew Schools.
Lt. William Katz, who is mar-
ried to Edwin's sister, Frances, is
