Folk Chorus, Symphony Concerts
Culminate Community Music Season

Dan Frohman's arrangement
of the Dvorak theme "Goin'
Home" from the "New World
Symphony" was another ap-
pealing offering in the concert.
Rose Rozanoff and Al Joffe
sang the solo portions.
Betty Kazdan submitted
most lovely soprano solos in
a duet from Verdi's "La
Traviata" and trio, "Attila."

Other able soloists in the con-
cert were Irene Pianin, Eugene
Bergman, Mu•ial Greenspon,
Julian Gawiser and Jack Rosen-
berg.
On Tuesday night, Mischa
Mischakoff, concertmaster- of
the Detroit Symphony Orches-
tra, was guest artist in the
Center Symphony's final con-
cert of the season at the
Hyman C. Broder. auditorium.
The Symphony was under the
capable direction of Julius
Chajes.
Mischakoff, who received an
overwhelming response from
the ebullient audience, played ,
a sublime rendition of Bruch's
Violin Concerto, Op. 26. His
astounding virtuosity was fur-
ther shown in three encores,
Gypsy Air, "Girl with the Flax-
en Hair" by Debussy and a Bach
prelude. The Bath reached a to-
tality of such fullness that the
listener almost believed he was
hearing a string orchestra, more
than a solo instrument, per-
forming marvelous counterpoint
and polyphonic effects,
The Center Orchestra came

through admirably with the
needed quality of accompani,.
ment. The symphony members
also reached high achievement
in the Haydn Symphony No. 104
in D Minor and Mozart's "Over-:
ture . to 'Don Giovanni'."
The musical event was a su-
perb finish- to the orchestra's
17th season. S.K.

Jewish Digest' Mulls
Issue of Women Rabbis

"Should Women Become Rab-
bis", a feature article appearing
in the May issue of the Jewish
Digest, deals with a subject
matter that has been brought
home to the American Jewish
public at the recent convention
of the Union of 'American He-
brew Congegations. The article
opens new • channels for those
who both propose and oppose
such a radical departure from
rabbinical tradition.
A prominent Reform rabbi,
Dr. Abraham Feldman, Hart-
ford, _Conn., voices approval of
the ordihation of women if they
ask for it "and accept the disci-
pline of training, study and
preparation required of male
rabbis!'
Rabbi Sidney E. Hoenig, di-
rector of the _adult education
division of Yeshiva. University,
opposes women in the rabbin-
ate, citing Jewish tradition
which txcuses women from ob-
serving positive commandments
of the Law. Dr. Oscar Z. Fas-
man, president of -the Hebrew
Theological Seminary, Chicago,
also registers a categorical "No"
to the question.
Women leaders quoted in the
symposium are generally favor- .
ably inclined.

rich Stahl Prize," most coveted

munity, was bestowed on Raoul
Wallenberg, the Swedish diplo-

Soviet forces during the war.
Recently, the Kremlin reported

The scroll awarding the prize-

lenberg family.

the Swedish • consul-general in
West Berlin. The award was

LISTENING

T

NOW IN THE ,process of
celebrating its 100th anniversary
with an extensive centennial
program, Pisgah Lodge No. 34,
Bnai Brith, founded Nov. 24,
1857, in Detroit, began festivi-
ties this month, with a presenta-
tion of certificates honoring
members of Pisgah who have
been affiliated with Bnai Brith
for 25 years or more . . The
certificates were presented by
Clarence Enggas s, long-time
community, leader and a mem-
ber of Pisgah for 50 years,
whose father was also a mem-
ber; and whose grandfather,
Moses 'Hirschbaum,_ was one . of
the group's charter members.
ON JUNE. 17, all living past
presidents • of Pisgah will be
honored with awards in recog-
nition of the services they
rendered. . . All Bnai Brith
lodges and chapters are Par-
ticipating in the centennial
celebration which will con-
dude with a banquet Nov. 24,
exactly 109 years to the day
of Pisgah.'s founding.
IT lb INTERESTING to note
that Pisgah, being the second
oldest Jewish organization in
Detroit, was founded by mem-
bers of Temple Beth El, which
was organized seven years pre-
viously, in 1&50 . So it is
that Temple Beth El, seeing
the need for an organization
outside the synagogue to render
services to the community,
brought Bnai Brith to Detroit.
DR. GEORGE V. LEIB is
president of Pisgah Lodge . .
His brother, Samuel W. Leib,
local barrister, is general chair-
man of the centennial celebra-
tion for both Pisgah and the
Greater Detroit Bnai Brith
Council . . Jack Leeds and
Harry Yudkoff are co-chairmen.

IN THE PAST three years,
since it was added as another
project of Infant Service Group,
the Penriokton Nursery for
Blind Children, founded by Mrs.
Lillian Richter, has been given
$1.2,000 by ISG . . . Its main
fund-raising - affair held last
January, netted $20,000 to be
used in the group's various
work helping youngsters .
Main project of Infant Service
Group still remains the same
- as of 23 years ago . . . that of
helping needy children of in-
digent families . . . At that
time, only six girls represented
the organization . . , Now the
ISG- membership is over 200
. • • Sonya Marcus is president
of Infant Service Group, whose
installation of officers will be
held June 4, when. Ida Rosen-
berg will be installed as the
new president.

DETROIT JEWISH. NEWS — Friday, May 31, 1957

Two musical events this week
culminated the community's
concert season.
The Halevy-Farband choral
society presented its fifth joint
concert Sunday evening in the
Detroit Institute of Arts.
The chorus, directed by Dan
Frohman, rendered a potpourri
of Yiddish and Israeli folk
Songs, English ballads, Negro
spirituals and liturgical and op-
eratic works.
Outstanding offering on the
program was an elaborate ar-
rangement of
• the "Unsarie
Tokef," the Hebrew invoca-
tion to the Lord incorporated
in Yom Kippur services. The
presentation featured Cantor
Shabtai Ackerman, who was
assisted by soloists Lillian
Newberg, Rena Tobes and
Nathan Mirtenbaum. The
beautiful orchestral accom-
paniment was provided by
instrumentalists from the De-
troit Symphony orchestra.
