LYING IN a bed at Herman
Kiefer Hospital with tuberculosis,
is a fellow who has a right to be
bitter . • The community has
forgotten him ... Sam Glieberman
is only 32 years old, but has been
a patient five years now ... In all
that time, he has yet to have a
rabbi visit him on a holiday ...
or be offered an interest in Jew-
ish life ... Folks don't come to see
him, other than the usual few
relatives ... Sam reads Hebrew
fluently, but has never received a
book, which he would greatly ap-
preciate along with the regular
influx of literature ... He is in-
terested in congregational and so-
cial activities and follows them
closely in Thb Jewish News each.
week ... Visitors are allowed, so
there can be no basis to any idea
people might have of contagion.
THERE ARE others just like
Sam, who have apparently been
forgotten ... They don't want
sympathy ... Just a gesture now
and then to assure them that they
are still considered a part of our
Jewish community.

BEST BET for the week-end ...
The Passover Dance of Julius
Rosenwald Post ... at Book-Cadil-
lac, April 27 ... Two tempos of
rhythm with Bobby Grayson for
the regular jump ... and Carlo
Rivera on the South-American
beat.

REMEMBER BOBBY SHAN
the mighty mite of the short stat-
ure ... who used to thrill corn-
munity-ites with his impersona-
tions before going into service?
... He scored a terrific hit in the
Air Force show, Helza-Flyin'
and his marvelous characteriza-
tions may bring a Hollywood con-
tract.

gaged . . . She is adjutant for the
Department of Michigan Jewish
War Veterans . . . and he is a
member of the Rafelson Post,

FIFTEEN YEAR OLD Dorothy
has reached the crossroads of life,
but for her, it seemed positively
the end, last week . .. She came
home from a dance and went to
her room sobbing . . .-Dad went
up and asked what had happened
.. . "Oh, Sidney and I had a
fight," she explained. "Now I just
know I'll never get married. It
seems I'm not old enough for the
young men and not young enough
for the old men."

COLUMN CONGRATS . To
Larry and May Saunders (Mazin)
. . . The new mommy and daddy
of six-and-a-half-p o u n d J u d y
Ann are both members of the
Jack Winokur Post and among the
first man and wife to join the
Jewish War Veterans . . . They
met while she was a WAC work-
ing in an Illinois hospital, where
he was stationed . . . Larry is a
two-year vet of the Pacific.
* * *
HUMOR DEPT. . . . The little
di,amond sparkled beautifully as
the newly engaged girl held out
her hand to show an old school-
mate . . . "My," exclaimed the
latter, "I'll bet all of your friends
admire that." . . . "Yes," said the
girl, "and three of them recog-
nized it!"

DISA 'N DATA . .. The Milt
Gurvis Amvet Post Dinner-Dance
is set for May 31 at the Book-
Cadillac . .. with plenty of do-
ings in 'store for a good old get-
together and installation of offi-
cers . . . Joe Medwed, the fine
advertising student, is an image
of Frank Sinatra . . . which could
cause a bit of well-planned con-
fusion when the bobby-babble-boy
appears in Detroit, soon ... Bar-
rister Mary Rosen offers a client's

definition of a lawyer being a
man who induces two men to
strip for a fight . . . and then
charges them for holding their
clothes!
* * *
HIS MUSICAL highness, Leon-
ard Bernstein, does things to folks
. . . Makes that or tingle sort of
trickle up and down the spine ...
The mere mention of his name
seems to set hearts a'throbbing
heavily with excitement . . . Let
Florence Sleeper, his most devot-
ed fan, attest to that .. . after
being offered tickets to one of
Leonard's concerts . . . She was
having one heck of a time trying
to get the addressograph machine
going up here at the Gazette of-
fice . . . Her complaint- that it had
broken down was nullified upon
being reminded that the switch
must be turned on at all times.

RABBI MILTON ARON, direc-
tor of Wayne Hillel Foundation, is
the nattily dressed gent, with
sharp bow tie and all . . . is over
an appendectomy at Grace Hospi-
tal and takes over the reins of
what will no doubt prove to be
one of the finest gathering spots
in the city for Jewish youth.
THE JUNIOR Service Group
quota probably will be around
$50,000, this year . .. more than
three times the 1942 figure! .. .
Shaarey Zedek was jammed be-
yond capacity at the program for
volunteer works last Thursday
. .. Everyone showed an eager-
ness to get going . . . Each di-
vision is out to beat the other.
. . . and there won't be many
turtle-toddlers to hold up the
pace . .. Four persons, all work-
ers, already share the honor of
giving this year's first pledge to
the Junior Division . . . Henry
Goldie Levinstein, Alex
Etkin and Leslie Colburn made
theirs almost simultaneously.
THIS IS IT! . . . The parade to
victory in the Allied JeWish Cam-
paign is ready to march down
Solicit Street up to Conscience
Ave., and into Give More Blvd.
. . . toward the reviewing stand
of millions of Jewish people
eagerly watching with a prayer
on their lips.
RUBE YOUNG'S life time
dream for a boys' camp has come
true with his Camp Thendara
. • . He's the former Junior head
of the Jewish Center . . . and in
yesteryears one of the few fine
all around athletes in competi-
tion . . . He excelled in almost
every sport that can be named.

MOSCOW (JTA) — "Whom
Time Obeys," a play based on the
heroism of Jews in the ghettoes
of Lithuania and Jewish parti-
sans, opened here April 18 at the
Vakhtangov Theater, one of the
major Moscow playhouses.
One of the central characters
in the drama written by. Tur and
Lev Sheinin, is Rubenstein, a 72-
year-old clock maker, who is
summoned by the Nazi Gauleiter
of Riga and ordered to repair his
rare 15th Century Genda clock.
In return, the watchmaker is
promised his life.
Rubenstein repairs the valu-
able antique but plants a time
bomb within it—as he has been
ordered to do by the partisan
movement. He is murdered by the
Nazis after he delivers the clock,
but is revenged when it explodes
three days later, and kills the
gauleiter.
