Every community has a right
to form its own destiny.
This is essentially the idea be-
hind the new South Oakland
County Committee of the Jewish
Community Council of Metro-
politan Detroit, and it was with
much interest that we, and we
suppose most of you, read the
announcement of its formation
last week.
Although the committee is yet
to meet as a newly-constituted
body, work of the committee has
been carried out for over a year
now as the South Oakland Coun-
ty Jewish Planning Council.
So, the idea of such a coor-
dinating body is not new, and

O-TV Young Israel
Organizing Men's. Club
David Feldstein, chairman of
the board of Young Israel Cen-
ter of Oak-Woods, this week an-
nounced the formation of a
men's club, to be added to the
now-functioning Sisterhood and
youth affiliate.
Jack Ginsberg, a synagogue
members, is in charge of the
group's formation. He stated
that its program will be both
social and cultural. Membership
and program planning have
been launched, activities to be-
gin in September.
All Oak Park and Huntington
Woods men will be eligible to
join the organization.
Sabbath services will be held
at 7:30 p.m., today. At 9. a.m.
services Saturday, Rabbi Yaakov
I. Homnick will preach the ser-
mon on "Conditions of Survival."
It will also refer to the Coun-
cil any policies that might
have repercussions in Detroit.
Further, the committee will
establish a date and program
clearance calendar similar to
that - of the Council itself, to
avoid conflicting dates for ac-
tivities in the area.
One problem already tackled
by the commitee's predecessor
body was a quieted affair which
had to do with the distribution
of Gideon Bibles in the subur-
ban schools. Working with the
Catholic Diocese in the area, the
matter was soon cleared Up suc-
cessfully.
The recognition granted.by the
Council in establishing such a
committee to represent it in the
area is a sign of the communi-
ty's growth and the dependa-
bility of its leaders.
We wish Ben Weil, of Cong.
Emanu-El, who will be chairman
of the committee, and the rep-
resentatives of all SOC groups
much success in this new and
interesting venture.
