L T he Suburban Community
Pioneering Merchants Match
Strides of Brother Residents
By the Oak-Woodser
Emphasis in the new trend to
'Go North, young man," is not
restricted only to residents.
Numerous business people are
answering the call, and, as a
consequence, the Suburban area,
particularly around Oak Park, is
being built up in , quick strides.
Many business men who used
to be in the Linwood, Dexter or
Livernois areas have caught up
• with many old customers they
used to serve. , In many cases,
stores are opening branches in
Oak Park, and are meeting with
success.
One of the newer merchants
in the area (as a matter of fax.,
they opened just a couple of
weeks ago) is Hammerstein
Drugs, and since opening day its
co-owners Sam and Sol Ham-1
merstein have been pumping
hands of old friends in a way
that, if it could be harnessed,
would put atomic energy to
shame.

Because of the difference be-
tween the use of the lunar cal-
endar by the Jews, and the reg-
ular world calendar used by the
general community, Wolok ex-
plained, often confusion arises
as to the exact date of Yahrzeit.
The congregation, he added,

SOC School Daze
Larry Abrams and Joe Asher-
son co-starred in the Lincoln
High Senior play,. "Girl Crazy,"
at the school auditorium. The
play had a dude ranch setting
and was performed around a
number of visitors to the ranch
from different walks- of life.
Larry portrayed a cowboy who
conspires with other cowhands
of the ranch to keep the visitors
from the city in hot water, while
Joe, who took the part of a
Brooklyn cab driver, supported
the plot with comedy.
The PTA - sponsored Thanks-
giving Dance, "Farewell to Fall,"
was held Thursday, in the Royal
Oak High Gym. Senior Sarah
Weiner, co - chairman of t h e
dance, worked diligently to make
the affair a big success.
It was 'initiation week at Berk-
ley High, as clubs took in new
members. T h e Tri-C, which
stands for charm, culture and
character, held an informal ini-
tiation last Friday. The charm
and culture were conspicuously
absent that day, while the school
abounded with "characters."
However, Tri-C has a serious
program, too. The club does
have an inspiring formal initia-
tion, a senior banquet each term
and also awards a $100 scholar-
ship each semester to a deserv-
ing senior girl. Nancy Cohen,
Ellen Schiller and Judy Stutz
are among the new members.
The MISTY (Michigan-Indi-
ana State Temple Youth) held
another annual fall conclave.
South Bend, Ind., was admitted
to the Michigan region, chang-
ing MSTY to MISTY.
Those who attended from
