Before the tears were dry on
the faces of most of the audi-
ence of last Monday evening's
performance of "The Diary of
Anne Frank", at the Shubert
Theater, another moving scene
took place.
Three members of the cast,
Joseph Schildkraut, Abigail Kel-
logg and Lou Jacobi, were pre-
sented with certificates indicat-
ing that their names have been
inscribed in the Golden Book of
the Jewish National Fund in
Jerusalem.
The presentation was made by
Morris Brandwine, chairman of
the Detroit Foundation for the
Jewish National Fund. Also on
stage for the ceremony were
Ben Harold, president of the
Detroit JNF Council, and Percy
Kaplan, executive director.
The audience warmly ap-
plauded the presentation, as they
did for the performances of the
actors.
In awarding the certificates,
Brandwine read the following

Oron leaders and or-

understanding of agricultural
work and developments in Israel.
Mr. Oron, who was born in
Switzerland, studied medicine in
Germany until he was forced to
leave school when the Nazis took
over. Then he went to an agri-
cultural school.
In 1935, Oron, with a group of
young farmers, left for Palestine
where he lived in a farm settle-
ment. He now is a council leader
in a cooperative village, Moshav
Yedidya. Since completing his
service with the army, Oron, a
veteran of the Israeli War of
Independence, has been engaged
in mixed farming.
In addition to his meetings
with 4-H and other agricultural
organizations, Oron, an amateur
archaeologist, addressed to
church youth groups in the De-

opened at Bar-Ilan University in
Ramat G a n, Israel, partly
through the aid of the Music
Study Club of Detroit, it was an-
nounced this week by Dr. Pink-
hos Churgin, president.

ported that the initial gift of
a piano was on its way to Israel.
The purchase was made pos-
sible through the aid of the Dora
