Katz Expresses Thanks
To Hebrew Teachers
For Jewish Background

An expression of gratitude to
his teachers at the United He-
brew Schools was. one of the
first thoughts of
Norman K a t z,
son of Joseph.
Katz, president'
of Kvutzah
rith, upon his
accepance to the
Harvard L a w
School.
H e attended
the D. W. Sim-
ons Elementary,

for High Schools
for 14 years, is a graduate of
Central High School and attend-
ed Wayne University.
Before leaving for Harvard.
Norman wrote a letter to A. J.
Lachover and Joseph Haggai,
two of his Hebrew School teach-
ers, of which the following is an
excerpt:
To my mind the Hebrew
school has always occupied a
more personal relationship in my
development than the public
schoo 1. In the latter school
the student is prepared to meet
general problems facing all
Americans; in the Hebrew
School the student is prepared
to meet problems which are
unique to him as a Jew and
which he will be forced to face
whether he wants.to or not.
"With my Jewish background
I feel that. as I leave home, fam-
ily, friends and familiar envi-
ronment, I am as fully prepared
as possible to go forth and retain,
nevertheless, my identity and
cultural heritage ' within the
melting pot that is America."
Norman also gave a contribu-
tion to the Scholarship Fund of
the Hebrew Schools.
