Ben Glicker's One-Man Show
So often people ask, "Why do w e I 1 - remembered "Harlequin
artists paint such large pic- Musician," winner of three prize
tures; why doesn't the artist awards in the 1941 annual
MiChigan Artists Exhibition.
Still, this exhibition is honest
and cheerful and Ben Glicker's
natural skill is always a pleas-
ant experience.
Ben Glicker is a sound por-
trait painter, as was evidenced
at the presentation of the Ray-
mond Zussman portrait to the
Zussman Post at the Jewish
War Veterans Buidling on Feb.
4. It is a fine characterization
of the young lieutenant recon-
structed from photographs and
family a c c o u n is of the De-
troit hero who lost his life in
World War II. The young man
is presented in overseas cap and
fatigue jacket, looking out from
the portrait with clear eyes. The
delineation of the mouth is ex-
pressive and mature. The port-
rait has dignity and integrity.
Glicker's Portrait of
Raymond Zussman
consider the size of our homes?"
We like cheerful painting, we
don't want depressing subjects,
we simply want something easy
to live with, something pleasant
and familiar, something we can
understand.
Ben Glicker's selection for his
first one-man show at the De-
troit Artists Market, which
opened Jan. 31, shoud satisfy
the above taste. Here is a
pleasant s h o w, comfortably
realistic, and familitar in sub-
ject matter.
The Detroit scenes, "Bob-Lo
Boat," "Old Mariner's Church,"
and lively "Jefferson and Wood-
ward" are attractively designed,
light in color and description of
our local scene. Adroit, quick
action studies, done with a
match stick and india ink, are
lively. The crayons are rich in
texture, inventive and individ-
ual. There is a section of still
life . and flower arrangements,
with "Peaches and Plums" par-
ticularly fresh, and the element
of composition and design has
been carefully considered
throughout.
I take exception to the group
of summer water colors, which
are too nebulous for my taste.
These r u n off vaguely; seem
weak in form and content and
indiscriminate in color. Another
objection is the lack of weigh-
tier studio pictures, such as the
Jr. Hadassah's Monthly
Dance Is Set for Feb. 21

dent of the Women's Division of
the Jewish Welfare Federation,
has accepted the chairmanship
of the women's phase of the

sion president, has announced.
Mrs. Hopp held the same post
in the 1950 drive.

the Women's Division, Mrs. Jo-
seph H. Ehrlich, will serve as
senior adviser, while the honor-
ary chairman will be Mrs. Henry
Wineman, who was a campaign
chairman in 1948 and 1949.
Mesdames Abraham Cooper,
Max Frank, Seymour J. Frank,
William B. Isenberg and Abra-
ham Srere will be vice-chairmen

mittee.
Heading the three principal
divisions of the women's cam-
p a i -g n will be Mrs. Harry
Becker, pre - campaign; Mrs.

and Mrs. Sidney J. Karbel, gen-
eral solicitation. PreparationS
for the special gifts luncheon,
to be held in April, will be made
by Mrs. Abraham Srere and Mrs.
Melville S. Welt.
Every Detroit Jewish woman
who contributes in her own
name to the Women's Division
of the Allied Jewish Campaign
is a Division member for the
ensuing year. In 1950, the Di-
vision secured pledges from
more than 13,00 women..
Junior Hadassh will have its
dance Wednesday, Feb. 21, at
Halevy Music Center, Fleet and
Linwood. The theme for this

This young worker in a plant near Haifa helps prepare cotton
for Israel's foreign trade. Cotton products are assuming an
increasing importance among the export commodities of the
Jewish State, and constitute a vital element in the domestic
market as well. Further large-scale expansion of this and other
branches of Israel's industry and agriculture will take place as
part of the three-year development iirogram being financed by
the forthcoming $500,000,000 Israel Government bond issue.
