Educational Problem Seeks
Solution on Eve of Shavuot

By the Oak-Woodser
Any time a speaker comes to
town to talk about Jewish edu-
cation, the one point he will
stress is that American Jewry
can no longer expect to survive
if it does not develop its own
culture, its own leadership and
if it does not train its own
rabbis and educators.
Gone are the days, these
scholarly men will tell you,
when American Jews can ex-
pect to be reinforced in the
teaching and rabbinical pro-
fessions by leaders from the
bastions of Europe — mainly
because these strongholds are
today non-existent.
It seems ironic, therefore,
especially on the eve of Sha-
vuot, when Jews pledge rededi-
cation to Torah, when we honor
o u r confirmands, consecrants
and graduates, that one of this
city's leading educational insti-
tutions finds itself in serious
difficulties.
Only this week, the Yeshivath
Beth Yehudah called a meeting
of parents, friends and sup-
porters to explain its financial
plight. The group was apprised
of these facts:
1. Teachers had not been
paid for 20 weeks; 2. Other
bills also were outstanding;
3. The school had to be
closed for a day so that the
rabbis could solicit door-to-
door to try to raise some
funds to continue immediate
operation; 4. That this tem-
porary situation could well
become permanent if enough
funds are not assured.
At present, the Yeshivah is
the Detroit area's only all-day
school, although there soon will
be another in the Hillel Day
School. The •Beth Yehudah
Schools has its main building on
Dexter and Sturtevant and op-

A CHALLENGE

TO WOMEN WHO "HAVE NO TIME" TO BAKE

If 'lack of time is all that's holding you back, you need
only three minutes to prove to yourself that you can do
your own home baking . . . with ease!
That's all it takes to mix a Dromedary batter for pound
cake, gingerbread, corn muffins and other favorites—

with perfect results the first time and every time you
bake!
Keep a supply of Dromedary Mixes on hand—and in
just a few moments, even on your busiest day, discover
the pride and pleasure of baking like an expert ... the
Dromedary way!

erates the Suburban Hebrew
Academy in Oak Park.
For many years now, its fi-
nancial structures. has been get-
ting crack after crack, and soon,
if repairs are not made, it will
find itself in danger of total
collapse.
What will happen to these
900 students who now attend
the Yeshivah?
Many of them are the chil-
dren of recent immigrants who
have no ability to pay for their
education, another large seg-
ment come from families who
can afford only a minimum
amount of the tuition costs.
Only a small number of the
Yeshivah pupils come from fam-
ilies who are able to pay the
full cost of their schooling.
If the Yeshivah closes, at
least two of these three
groups of youngsters will be
prevented from getting the
kind of Jewish education they
feel is important to them—
that our leading educators
say we must ,have in order to
develop future scholars.
There are two obvious solu-
tions to this financial problem:
Either larger private donations
must be -obtained or there must
be more communal support. In
the first instance, the Yeshivah
already attempts to reach every
possible contributor for funds.
Since its leaders are rabbis
rather than fund-raisers, it is
doubtful that this can be ac-
complished speedily or easily.
The second poss\ibility is now
under negotiation among Yeshi-
vah and community leaders.
Perhaps this will result in sat-
isfactory solution soon.
The third alternative is the
closing of the Yeshivah perma-
nently, and, coming as it does
on the eve of Shaviot, we don't.
think this is the logical choice.
