Second Reunion for Girl and
Foster Parents, Without Tears
Felicia Grunfeder, who as a young child was niuggled out of
the Warsaw ghetto in a coffin and then hidden with a Christian
family, is shown (at left) as she was reunited with her foster
mother, Mrs. Joseph Arens, in the New York shelter of United
has Services, the Jewish international migration agency, in 1949,
and again (at right) this year, when the girl, no 16 returned from
California to visit with Mrs. Arens and her husband. In 1941 the
Nazis imprisoned the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto and Felicia's
parents delivered her to Christian friends, Mr. and Mrs. Arens,
in a coffin, pretending they were on their way to bury her. Mr.
Arens took the child to a neighboring village, and returned to
Warsaw with her, telling neighbors that the child was his by a
former marriage. Later, the child's real father was killed, the
mother was sent to a concentration camp, and the Arens family,
who had aided the Jews in the Warsaw uprising, were also sent
to a concentration camp, taking Felicia with them. After libera-
tion, Felicia's mother found her child, reclaimed her, and the
pair were aided to come to the U.S. by United Elias. The Arens had
. immigrated to the U.S. the year before. Felicia and her mother
proceeded to California. Recently Felicia, who lives with her
mother in Los Angeles and is now a high school senior, came back
to New York on a visit, and the reunion with Mrs. Areas resulted.
Felicia, who is majoring in languages, speaks five languages now,
and writes for her high school paper. The Arens live in Mahwah,
N.J., and Felicia stayed with them during her visit back East.

Jewish. Pilot Dies
Hero's Death;
Saves Civilians
BROOKLYN, N.Y. — The "sad
tidings of a heroic Jewish Marine
Corps jet pilot, who deliberately
rode to his death to avoid crash-
ing in a residential district when
his F-J-2 Fury plane was dis-
abled, was carried to the pilot's
family by a rabbi serving as
part-time chaplain at Floyd Ben-
nett Field, who had to double as
a detective to comnlete the mis-
sion. This is revealed in a report
from the chaplain to the National
Jewish Welfare Board's Com-
mission on Jewish Chaplaincy.
Capt. Arthur C. Rubinstein,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Ru-
binstein of 501 New York Avenue,
Brooklyn, had come to South
Weymouth Naval Air Station,
Mass., on a routine mission.
Taking off on the return trip to
his home base at Cherry Point,
N. C., he ran into engine trouble
when a hundred feet in the air.
He informed the, control tower
that his engine had quit and that
he had decided to steer the
fighter plane away from the
residential district into a wooded
area nearby. He crashed to his
death in the woods about a mile
from the Station.
Moved by his heroism, two
fellow jet pilot officers (also
from Cherry Point) who had wit-
nessed the accident from the
field offered to go to New York
to convey the news to the- pilot's
family.
Commander Jones naturally
turned to Rabbi Eugene Cohen
(Congregation Derech Emunoh,
Arverne, N.Y.) who serves as
the part-time Jewish chaplain at
the post. Commander Jones'
call found the rabbi busy in his
synagogue with his afternoon
Hebrew class. Rabbi Cohen lost
no time in reaching the field and
set out for the home of Capt.
Rubinstein's folks. When the
party found that the parents
were at work (no one knew the
business address of the two), the
search continued until they were
finally located (with the aid of a
number of 'relatives) in the home
of friends. The chaplain con-
veyed the condolences of the
Marine Corps and the JWB to
the bereaved parents.
