Northwest Synagogue Breaks Ground
For Enlarged Worship Facilities

•

Ground - breaking operations
have begun for a 100 per cent
enlargement of the Northwest
Hebrew Congregation and Cen-
ter, according to Maurice J. Karo,
chairman of the building com-
mittee, and Ira G. Kaufman, pres-
ident of the congregation.
It is expected the social hall
will be completed by the High
Holy Days, so that the entire
membership may be accommo-
dated at services, Karo an-
nounced. Projected plans call for
continuance of work on the school
building, upon completion of the
social hall, to be followed by
erection of the synagogue proper.
The entire strut ture will be

165 feet wide, facing on Curtis,
near Santa Rosa, and 100 feet
deep. Provisions have been made
for a small chapel and library,
as well as meeting rooms.
The Synagogue Board reports
encouraging response to the
building fund solicitation, ac-
knowledging contributions of $1,-
000 from the Men's Club and
$5,400 from the Sisterhood.
With building operations pro-
ceeding, the congregation is con-
tinuing plans for an expanded
adult education program in the
fall, under the guidance of Rabbi
Jacob E. Segal. Plans also are
being made for a nursery school,
to be held under the auspices of
the synagogue.
