Screen's 'David and Bathsheba' Is Too Torrid for N.Y. Orthodox Groups NEW YORK, (AJP)—Two na- tional Orthodox Jewish groups have rejected advertisements on the technicolor film "David and Bathsheba" for their publica- tions, one on the grounds that the film is "too sexy." Twentieth-Centry Fox offices have set up a special cam- paign to win cooperation of Jew- ish groups in promoting the movie. The rejections of the ad- vertisements by Young Israel, a national youth group, and the Union of Orthodox Jewish Con- gregations representing more than 500 synagogues, were the first rebuffs in the film colony's campaign. Rabbi Irwin Gordon, executive director of the UOJC, told the AJP that the advertisement for "Orthodox Jewish Life," the UOJC publication, had been re- jected because it was felt the picture was "too sexy." A critical review of the film by Rabbi Shubert Spero of the organization is scheduled to ap- pear in the magazine's next is- sue. Rabbi Gordon said. Intimate Associate Says Einstein Is Behind in Physics A half-page advertisement for the "Young Israel Viewpoint" was turned down "on principle," a young Israel spokesman told the AJP. A young Israel spokesman said that his organization felt the Bible should not be used as a vehicle for film stories. adding that strong objections had been voiced to the story of David be- ing transformed into a "love movie." The Young Israel spokesman said the group also felt that too much time and effort was going into, portrayals of Jewish historical and religimis figures which emphasized their faults. Neither organization had any plans for a boycott of the film. The Young Israel spokesman said that many members pro- bably had seen the movie but that there was no reason for the organization to officially urge them to do so. The film had come under cri- tical Jewish security when it was first released here. Several Jewish organizations indicated that the portrayal of God in the film was likely to reinforce anti- J e wish religious stereotypes. These organizations, however, declined to take any specific action. DENVER, (AJP) — A Jeru- salem mathematician asserted that Prof. Albert Einstein has failed to keep pace with atomic developments and said he doubted t h e Jewish scientist tipped off President Roosevelt about the possibility of an atomic bomb. T h e mathematician, P r o f. Abraham H. Fraenkel, of the Hebrew University, charged in an interview with Robert Gam- zey, editor of the Intermoun- tain Jewish News, that Einstein had not kept pace with .modern trends in the last 25 years. Asked if he himself under- stood Einstein's noted theory of relatively, Prof. Fraenkel, who has known Einstein intimately for the past quarter-century, declared "the theory of rela- tivity is one of the easiest to understand: Our grandchildren will be astounded that this gen- eration didn't understand it." A one-time secretary to Ein- stein, Prof. Edwin Sears, of the Denver University law school, said the famous scientist's fav- orite story about his theory con- cerns one yokel trying to ex- plain it to another yokel. "You see, when you are in the den-.. tist's chair, five minutes seems like an hour. But when you have a beautiful girl in your arms, an hour seems like five minutes." That's E i n s t e i n's theory of relativity. Film Studio Built in Israel Faces in the News Israel Police Chief An old hand at police matters, Behor Shalom Shitreet climbed the ladder the hard way.
