ISAAC ROSENTHAL
president of Beth Yehudah, will
be carried on in his memory at
the Yeshivah, it was announced
this week by Rabbi M. J. Wohl-
gelernter. An appropriate plaque
will be put up to commemorate
the name of Mr. Rosenthal, and
traditional Siyum services will
be held periodically at the con-
clusion of the study of the re-
spective volumes.
A native Detroiter- and a pio-
neer in Jewish life of the city,
Mr. Rosenthal who died on June
14, 1952, has been mourned by
wide community circles including
several synagogues with which
he was affiliated, Mizrachi, the
Jewish Hospital movement and
other philanthropic organiza-
tions. His most unique contribu-
tion to Detroit Jewry, however,
has been the kind of personal
life he led, his meticulous hospi-
tality at his home.
During his lifetime, Mr. Ros-
enthal saw Yeshivath Beth Ye-
hudah grow from modest be-
ginnings in the Hastings Street
neighborhood, thirty-six years
ago, to the present enrollment
of nearly 600 in the main bu,ild-
ings on Dexter and Cortland
and a complex of schools em-
bracing several departments
and branches. There are today
89 pupils in the advanced _class-
es of the Yeshivath studying
Mishnah and Talmud. More
than fifty of its alumni are pur-
suing higher courses at Yeshi-
vath in New York, Chicago,
Cleveland and elsewhere.
Mr. Jay Rosenthal has been
named to the Yeshivah Board
to succeed his father. Two
grandchildren, Marshall and
