Sitihnon Nei.v OP Justice;
Shepherd Tops Council Vote

By the Oak Woodser
Two Jewish candidates were
successfial in their first bids for
public office, as Oak Park vot-
ers on Monday unseated their
incumbent Justice of the Peace
and returned one incumbent
Council member.
Victorious in a campaign that
was marked with no major is-
sues were Burton Shifman who
defeated the present Justice of
the Peace Frank Glabach by a
'slim 37 votes, and David Shep-
herd, who ran first among the
four Council candidates.
Mayor Richard W. Marshall,
who was unopposed for re-elec-
tion, dreW 3,656 token votes,
while Joseph Suiter, incumbent
Councilman, picked up 2,616 to
run second to Shepherd's 2,885.
Unsuccessful candidates for
Council were Mrs. Harriet
Arnowitz, who received 1,440
votes, and druggist Sam Ham-
merstein, who polled 1,052.
Only 4,886 votes were cast of
the 16,124 total registration, a
little better than 25 percent.
Shifman, who will take of-
fice on July 1, said that "this
election provided a perfect
example for the stay-at-hom-
ers who feel their vote doesn't
count. If only two more peo-
ple in each percinct had come
out to vote, - there might not
be a new justice in Oak Park
today." •
Asked whether he credited
any particular factor fOr his vic-
tory, Shifman said, "Perhaps,
we worked just a little harder."
.Shifman, an attorney with of-
fices in Detroit, gave his wife
much of the credit for his tri-
umph. "After all, she was my
campaign manager,'" he said.
What is the first thing the
new Oak Park JP plans to do?
First of all, he wants to get-
rid of a case of flu, which kept
his victory celebration Monday
night down to a mild roar.
Then, he wants to do a little
reading and studying to fam-
iliarize himself with the details
of the Oak Park court and com-
pare f it with court systems in
neighboring communities to find
things that may prove bene-
ficial for more efficient opera-
tion.
• Shifman, elected to a four-
year term, hopes that a Muni-
cipal Bill now pending in Lan-
sing will soon be passed en-
abling the OP Court to become
a Municipal Court.
This would enable Oak Park
to have greater rule-making
powers to fit in with court con-
ditions here, Shifman said, as
well as provide greater author-
ity for leveling fines and sen-

Oak Park Likely
to Be Site of
New Day School

Newly-created Hebrew Com-
munity Day School, consisting
of parents and community lead-
ers, is now considering three
possible sites for the school
scheduled to open•in September.
Possible locations are the Sev-
en Mile and Wyoming area of
Detroit, Nine Mile and Coolidge
area, Oak Park and the Ten
Mile and Greenfield section of
Oak Park. The final choice will
depend 'on the largest concen-
tration of the student body. All
indications, however, point to
Oak Park.
At a recent meeting with lead-
ers of Torah Umesorah, the na-
tion al organization for the es-
tablishment of day schools, a
tentative curriculum was out-
lined for nursery, kindergarten
and first grade. For the present,
the school will be limited to
these three groups.
Studies will be accredited by
the Board of Education. The
school. will follow the public
school program in content, but
will resemble the priVate school
in method with greater personal
attention given to its students.
A board of education consist-
ing of leading -educators and
or t h o d o x rabbis has been
formed. Sponsors are being pro-
posed for board membership to
guide the `financial basis for the
.school.
Interviews are now being held
for nursery and foundation
school teachers for both Hebrew
and • English departments.
A parent organization has al-
ready been formed, and parents
interested in the group may call
