Year Gone By Shows Gain
In Suburban Synagogue Life
By the Oak Woodser
Rosh Hashanah—the signal
for the start of a new year—is
always the time for taking stock
of the progress made in the year
gone by. And in this new section,
the year just passed has demon-
strated that our new genera-
tion of young Jewish parents
intends to keep the spirit of
Jewish living alive for at least
another 5715 years.
Last year, services in the Oak
Park-Huntington Woods section
were held by Reform, Conserva-
tive and Orthodox congregations,
which had just been organized
and had hardly been developed.
Rosh Hashanah this year sees
the ranks of all three groups
swelling rapidly, encompassing
ever greater numbers who have
answered the call to prayer. It
is these young people—those
who have joined congregations
of their choice, those who are
sending their children to religi-
ous school, those who are fur-
thering the causes of the Jews—
that will make a great com-
munity even greater.

Hope that power shortage
last Sunday didn't catch too
many of you with your electri-
city down. As for us, well the
Missus had a sad tale to weave.
What with family here on a
first-time visit from California
and a scrumptous brunch all
planned—whoof no electricity.
Have you ever tried to scramble
a dozen eggs over Sterno? And
that doesn't take into account
that half-baked cake. The sun
rose Sunday, but that was all!
Just as we were learning the
way home and had reached the
point where we were able to
point the car in the right direc-
tion and off we'd go, the Oak
Park Street Department got
busy over on Wyoming, in be-
tween 9 and 10 Mile Rds. Now,
it's start all over again, as the
detour signs are out all over the
neighborhood. That, of course,
if it's consolation, is one way to
get to know your city.
Egypt Blamed by UN
Body for Violations
TEL-AVIV, (JTA) — The Is-
raeli-Egyptian Mixed Armistice
Commission expressed its con-
cern over the problem of Arab
infiltration from the Egyptian-
held Gaza strip into Israel ter-
ritory, after declaring Egypt re-
sponsible for the violation of
the demarcation lines by civil-
ians.
Pointing out that the armis-
tice agreement places respon-
sibility for halting such infiltra-
tion on the governments from
whose territory the infiltrees
come, the MAC condemned
Egypt for two instances of civil-
ians illegially crossing the line
during July.
The UN chairman's absten-
tion on the grounds of insuffi-
cient evidence forced the drop-
ping of three other such cases
and one Egyptian complaint
against Israel. Twenty - three
other complaints filed by both
parties were dropped without
any discussion.
