Sunday, in the auditorium of
the former Labor Zionist Insti-
tute, 13722 Linwood.
The meeting, to which all
workers in the campaign are in-
vited, is the first of three such
affairs planned in conjunction
with the "mopping-up" phase.
The programs are intended to
bring the 1955 drive to a speedy
and successful conclusion.
Though the official cam-
paign close is on March 15, the
traditional closing event is a
Third Seder, which this year is
planned for April 10 in the social
hall of Adas Shalom Synagogue.
Plans for the program are cur-
rently being made.
