Capt. Victoria Nasim, Assist-
ant Superintendent of the Is-
rael Ministry of Police, complet-
ed a 30-hour whirlwind tour of
the Detroit area last week dur-
ing her visit here for the De-
troit Israel Bond Committee.
Besides visiting at the Detroit
House of Correction and Jack-
son Prison, Capt. Nasim, who is
in charge of Israel's penal in-
stitutions, was guest of honor at
a Sherry Hour reception, spon-
sored by the Women's Division.
Addressing 130 women at
Rainbow Terrace, she called on
her audience to purchase bonds
and to attend the Israel 10th an-
niversary dinner being held
Saturday, at Adas Shalom Syn-
agogue. Israel Ambassador Ab-
ba Eban will be guest speaker.
Emphasizing Israel's immedi-
ate need for investment capital
to provide permanent dwellings
for tens of thousands of new-
corners, Capt. Nasim stated: "If
you buy the Israel Bonds which
build houses, we will convert
those houses into homes."
She assisted Mrs. Stoliman in

room areas, each utilizing a
different floor treatment, wall
covering and ceiling design.
Vinyls, fiberglass, grained

combined in dozens of colors
to make each area a complete

Mexican Pianist, Olympic Fencer
to Address Zionists
Jose Kahan,
on Maccabiah Games
Byron Krieger, internationally
Acclaimed Here known
fencer, will be guest
.
A large and appreciative
audience, attending the Detroit
Friends of Music concert, at
the Morris Schaver Auditorium,
Tuesday evening, gave an ova-
tion to the talented young
Mexican Jewish pianist, Jose
Kahan.
Kahan, a native of Mexico
City, displayed remarkable
talent and was called upon for
encores.
He was especially effective in
the modern selections, and his
interpretation of Kabalewski's
Sonata No. 3 was outstanding.
Kahan's future is most prom-
ising, judging by hi,, Detroit
performance. He has poise, his
technique is pleasing and there
is no doubt about his knowl-
edge of music and his mastery
at the piano once he begins
playing, whether it is a diffi-
cult classical number or a more
popular selection.
Guest here for a week of the
Morris Schavers, Kahan was
welcomed by the Mexican com-
munity and the Mexican Con-
sulate entertained him here.
The next concert of the De-
troit Friends of Music has been
postponed to Jan. 22. It will
feature Gordon Staples, violin-
ist, and Paul Olefsky, cellist.
presenting 1957 National Spon-
sor pins to 40 women who have

In the evening, Rabbi Joshua
Sperka, Jewish chaplain Jack-
son prison, greeted Capt. Nasim
at his home, where she met with
other penal officials and crimi-
nologists from Detroit, Wayne
County and Wayne State Uni-
versity.
