Friday, March 14, 1958—THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS-22 Sports Committee Grows to 50 Members Detroit Couple Guests Sulie Harand Here for Annual Program of Briscoe in NYC SetMay 29 Date Yiddish Play Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Walker, of 20162 Stratford, were guests this week in New York of Rob- ert Briscoe, former Lord Mayor of Dublin, Ireland, and now a counselor in the Irish Parlia- ment, and Mrs. Briscoe. Briscoe, in this country for the dual purpose of promoting tourism to Ireland and making appearances here for the Israel Bond Drive, has a staunch sup- porter in Walker. They met last November, when the Walkers stopped off in Ireland on their way home from a visit in Europe. On an impulse, Walker called Briscoe, and related his pleasure at hav- ing heard him when he was in Detroit last year for the United Jewish Appeal. Briscoe invited Mr. and Mrs. Walker to spend the day with him as his guests, and he es- corted them through Parliament and showed them around the city of Dublin. Since that time, through cor- respondence, they have become friends, and, in the Walkers, the former Lord Mayor has two ad- vocates of Irish tourism.
