A Call to Jewish Parents
Name Sept. 8 - Oct. 8 Education Month
"A Call to Jewish Parents," proclaiming the period from
Sept. 8 to Oct, 8 as Jewish Education Month, and calling
upon the entire American Jewish community to devote special
attention to Jewish educational resources and programs, in-
cluding enrollment of all Jewish children, was issued this
week by the American Association for Jewish Education,
with the support of the presidents of all major Jewish or-
ganigations.
Citing the great growth of American Jewry since the first
Jewish settler landed, in 1654, the call declares that "we
must recognize the harsh truth that our progress in Jewish
spirit, knowledge and culture has not kept pace with our
numbers or with our other, more material accomplishments,"
and calls for "a consistent, dedicated and effective commu-
nity-wide effort on behalf of Jewish education for all."
Trial to Continue on Ousted Coach;
Israel Hits Peak in Cage Tourney
By BILL WOLF
(Copyright, 1953, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc./
Counsel for Nat Holman, sus-
pended basketball coach of City
College of New York, has filed
briefs asking that the charges
against Holman be dismissed.
The action was taken by
James V. Hayes, Holman's at-
torney, who took the step on
the ground that the evidence
produced at the 14-day Board
of Higher Education trial did
not prove the charges that Hol-
man was guilty of conduct un-
becoming a teacher.
Hayes demanded that all of
the testimony that- did not per-
tain to Holman be stricken from
the record.
Holman was suspended pend-
ing outcome of the hearing on
► charges against him as an out-
growth of the basketball scan-
dals at City College. Holman
denies the charges and says
that he is being used as a scape-
goat. The trial is expected to
resume around the latter part of
August.

Israel's basketball team, fresh
from finishing fifth in the Euro-
pean tournament held recently
in Moscow, has been continuing
its playing abroad. There were
plenty of fireworks when the
Israelis played at Istanbul. They
were defeated by Turkey's
champions, Galatasaray, in a
thriller that ended 60-55.
In a game with Istanbul, Is-
rael lost 57-52, but not until
after the cops had to break up
a fight among the spectators.
Three Jews Expect
Election in West Germany
There was a lot of tension in
the crowd when Israel was in
the lead after the half. How-
ever, Istanbul came from be-
hind in the last three minutes.
As to Israel's basketball stay
in Moscow, reports were that
the team was well received by
the Rusisans. The London Jew-
ish Chronicle quoted manager
Behor Begg and President Yitz-
hak Caspi of the Israel Basket-
b al 1 Federation as revealing
that "the team had a friendly
reception in Moscow from the
authorities and the public. The
players went on sabbath to the
Moscow synagogue, which was
half-full."

English sports fans were glad
to have back in their midst a
champion British boxer w h o
hadn't been around for a long
time. Johnny Brown, a former
British and European bantam-
weight champ and one of Eng-
land's outstanding Jewish box-
ers, arrived from South Africa.
The trip was only a visit, how-
ever. Br own has settled in
South Africa. He is 51 and a
grandfather. Brown lost the
European bantamweight crown
in 1928, when he was defeated
by Teddy Baldock.
Expect 'Bank Case'
Verdict in Two Weeks
FRANKFURT, (J T A) — With
counsel for attorney Joseph
Klibansky demanding his ac-
quittal because of "proven in-.
nocence," the defense completed
its summation in the involved
"Jewish Restitution Bank" case,
which has been dragging on in
a local German7.courtroom for
the past 10 months.
Klibansky, indicted for hav-
ing been an accessory in the
violation of corporation and
foreign currency laws, will make
his final remarks next week.
The other four defendants, who
were connected with the bank
in one capacity or another, will
also make their concluding
statements. The court will hand
down its verdict in two weeks.
Klibansky became the short-
lived bank's legal . advisor in
1949-50 with the intent of help-
ing Jewish refugees, often living
in straitened circumstances
abroad, to derive some benefit
from their blocked accounts in
Germany, his attorney, Dr. Paul
Haag, stated.
BONN, (JTA)—At least three
Jews will be re-elected to the
next West German Bundestag,
it was predicted here. All are
SoCial Democratic members. The
parliamentary el ections will
take place Sept. 6.
Jakob Altmaier, 64, and Peter
Blachstein, 42, will both contest
the same, "safe" constituencies
which sent them to Parliament
in 1949, the former in Hanau, near
Frankfurt, the latter in the
Hamburg district. It is fairly
certain that Jeannette Wolff,
65, will again be prominent
among those representing Ber-
lin in Bonn.
The Chr i s ti a n - Democratic
Union has picked Professor
Franz Boehm, head of the Ger-
man delegation to the repara-
tions negotiations with Israel in
The Hague and proven friend of Zim to Begin U, S. to Israel
the Jews, to contest a Frankfurt Voyages After Election to TPC

Report Budget Increase
Delegates of the Detroit City
of Hope Cancer Fighters have
returned from the annual con-
vention of the City of Hove, na-
tional medical center in Duarte,
Calif.
The non-sectarian institution,
which is widely known for its
specialization in tuber c ulosis,
cancer and heart disease, re-
cently opened the nation's only
free cancer research clinic:
Delegates to the parley in-
cluded Mrs. Helen Rosenberg,
president of the Cancer Fight-
ers, Mrs. Frances Oschin, vice-
president; and Mrs.. Rose Wil-
ber, treasurer.
They reported that the bud-
get set by the institution for
the next two years will be $6,-
800,000, a substantial increase
over the $4,900,000 budget for
the past two years. In Detroit,
the City of Hope is supported by
the City of Hope Auxiliary, De-
troit Business Men's Group and
the Cancer Fighters.
Mrs. Rosenberg will present a
detailed report of the conven-
tion at a meeting of her group's
board of directors on Aug. 24,
at the home of Mrs. Frieda
Knoll, 19211 Parkside.
At a recent meeting•, members

Lack of Funds May Cause
Destruction of Scrolls
LONDON, (JTA)—For the lack
of about $30,000, there is danger
that some of the earliest Bibli-
cal Scrolls—discovered on the
banks of the Dead Sea last year
—may be destroyed or lost, it
was stated here by G. Lankester
Harding, director of Antiquities
in Jordon, at a meeting of the
Palestine Exploration Fund. He
told of Arab tribes stripping
bare caves containing a wealth
of Biblical material, the exist-
ene of which was not previous-
ly suspected.
Coins found in a settlement
in the area were dated 10 A.D.
and evidence suggested that the
occupation ended aboUt 70 A.D.,
Harding stated. The amount of
material discovered was amaz-
ing, he said. "Most of what's
been written about paleography
is going to have to be revised
considerably in view of the re-
cent discovery."
The problem of sorting and
identifying the material would
be great, Harding said. He re-
ported that he prepared plans
for taking to Jerusalem, for one
year, an international group of
scholars for this work. Top
Jordanian government officials,
he stated, had already paid 15,-
000 pounds for the purchase of
the greater part of the manu-
scripts, but money for the rest
had still to be raised.

Judaism Sets Forth Rules
Concerning Drunkenness
ROSEN OPTICAL SERVICE
In the Bible we find that the
priests were not allowed to enter
the sanctuary after drinking
(Levi 10:9). The Talmud derives
from the Bible the fact that af-
ter one has drunk a certain
amount he is not to sit in judg-
ment to render ritual decisions.
One is forbidden to pray when
drunk. One who does pray while
under the influence of intoxi-
cating liquors is considered as
having worshipped idols (Trac-
tate Berochoth-31).
From the incident of Noah's
drunken spell which brought
him shame and from other in-
cidents like Lot's drunken epi-
sode, the Talmud deduces the
shame of excessive drinking.
The Sanhedrin were not al-
lowed to drink wine when they
had to judge matters of life and
death.
