to the community, to Israel and
to the cause of education, Prof.
Isaiah Leo Sharfman will be
honored this Saturday with a
testimonial dinner sponsored by
the Ann Arbor-Ypsilant i-
Jackson Israel Bond Committee.

Union, in Ann Arbor.
Nearly four years ago, the
entire Michigan community and
PROF. I. LEO SHARFMAN
educators throughout the world
joined in tribute to Prof. Sharf-
man on the occasion of his 70th
birthday.
Retired now as chairman of
the department of economics at
the University of Michigan, he
had previously served in the
school for 43 years and was
chairman for nearly 30 years.
During his career, in which
his love of teaching won out
many times over attractive
offers from private business
firms, he became known as a
noted scholar, an able adminis-
trator and a friend to thousands
of his students.
A graduate of Harvard Uni-
versity Law School, Prof. Sharf-
Smart brides select the
Sheraton-Cadillac for their
weddings and receptions. And
for good 'reason! First, the
staff of this famous hotel spe-
cializes in catering to wed-
dings — lifts so many nagging
details from the shoulders of
the bride and her family.
And whether you select the
magnificent Grand Ballroom
for a party of 750, or one of
our exquisite Parlors for an
intimate family group of as
small as twenty, you may rest
assured that the accommoda-
tions and service will be the
finest in Detroit.
Our prices are reasonable,
and you'll always be prond to
remember that your wedding
was at the Sheraton-Cadillac.
