Leaders of Junior Division
Raise AJG Goal to $100,000
Since the Junior Division of the
Allied Jewish Campaign achieved
its original quota of $75,000 on
less than one-half of its cover-
age, leaders in the Division have
voted to increase the quota to.
$100,00,0, Leonard Baruch and
Barbara A. Greenberg, campaign
chairmen announced this week.
The most outstanding job so
far in the division has been done
by - the special gifts group, head-
ed by Lawrence Fleischman. This
section raised over $40,000 in its
intensive pre-campaign efforts,
with more than 1,000 new givers
discovered by the 93 workers in
the division. •
- "This is the first year that a
special gifts division was organ-
ized by the Juniors," Miss Green-
berg said, "and the success it
met with was due largely to the
Work of LaWrence Fleischman,
Arlene Davidson, Morton Lieber-
Man, Shirley Sirhons, William
Stone, and Celia Winokur, who
were chairmen of the boards
within • the section."
. Amounts raised and percent-
age of coverage achieved by the
various teams in general solici-
tation are as follows:
Team A, Hillei Abrams, captain,
$2,703, 55.2 per cent; B. Margery
Davidson, $4,0'13, 84.7 per cent;
C, Shirley Jacobsen, $2,625, 60.4
per cent; D, Dena Leep, $2,760,
76.4 per cent; E. Madeline Leven-
berg, $3,075, 64.6 per cent; F.
Dorothy Liederman, $2,254, 49.5
per. cent; G, Harvey Lipsitt, $1,-
231, 81.8 per cent; H, Ted Mandel,
$3,960, 80.5 per cent; I, Jack Men- .
enberg, $2,715, 69.4 per cent; J,
Harry Mirvis, $1,807.11, 42.9 per
cent; K, Norman Naimark, $5,-
498, 71 per cent; L, Tubert Sid-
low, $2,431, 62.5 per cent; M, Gil-
bert Silverman, $5 673.50, 56.1
per cent; N, Lilo Stark, $3,189,
70.8 per . cent.
Division chairmen and cap-
tains are urged to get in touch
with all workers with outstand-
ing slips in order that 100 per
cent coverage might be achieved
within the next five days.
"If we see all of our prospects
and achieve 100 per cent cover-.
age, the amounts raised will be
taken care of and we will cer-
tainly go far over the top of
even our increased quota," Bar-
uch emphasized.
