Purchase of Cong. Beth
Shmuel, 12837 Dexter, by Cong.
Dovid Ben Nochim for $75,000
was announced this week by
Rabbi Chaskel Grubner, spirit-
ual leader of the purchasing
congregation.
The new home for Cong.
Dovid Ben Nochim was made
possible by a gift from David
Rott, local businessman, whose
only stipulation was that the
synagogue remain Orthodox.
The larger facilities, accord-
ing to Rabbi Grubner, will make
possible the expansion of num-
erous programs, including a
large-scale youth program.
Services will be held tem-
porarily at the present syna-
gogue, 12322 Dexter, until the
actual date of moving. Cong.
Dovid Ben Nochim will occupy
its new quarters after June 21.
A dedication banquet will
celebrate the transfer of the
synagogue on June 26, in the
social hall of the new syna-
gogue.
Joseph Borenstein, president
of the congregation, is serving
as chairman of the banquet,
with Jack H. Isbee, vice-presi-
dent, serving as publicity chair-
man, and I. Sarnoff and D. Ku-
perwasser as ticket chairmen.
The banquet will be held in
honor of David Rott, the foun-
der of the original synagogue
and its leading benefactor.
According to Rabbi Grubner,
Cong. Dovid Ben Nochim will
assure residents of the Dexter
area that they will continue to
have a place to worship. Daily
classes for adults and sabbath
classes for youth are currently
being organized.
Cong. Beth Shmuel will con-
tinue occupancy of the building
until the date of the transfer,
and will conduct services as us-
ual, according to Rabbi Joseph
Rabinowitz, spiritual leader.
The congregation is currently
looking for a new site, but noth-
ing definite has been decided,
said Rabbi Rabinowitz. Beth
Shmuel will either purchase a
building already in existence or
will build a new structure, the
rabbi added.

ELLENSBURG, Wash. — A
non-Jewish couple here has con-
quered a time and space prob-
lem to learn Biblical Hebrew
in a modern way.
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Geiger
wanted to study the Old Testa-
ment in its original language.
To find an instructor, Geiger,
an alumnus of the University
of Washington, travelled 200
miles to Seattle to talk it over
with Rabbi Arthur A. Jacobo-
Walter Farber and Rabbi Sher-
win T. Wine.
In the junior division, Rita
Koenig, of Adas Shalom, won
second prize. Other contestants
included Robert Clinton, David
Smith and Elaine Rosen, Beth
Shalom; Beth Ann Dettelbach,
Temple Emanu-El; Elizabeth
Jacobs and Linda Torby, Tem-
ple Beth El; Sylvia Kaufman,
Adas Shalom; Sharon Panush,
Beth Aaron; and Lowell Sey-
burn, Temple Israel.
Judges in the junior division
were Lawrence W. Crohn,
Frank Leiderman and Rabbi
Benjamin H. Gorrelick. Asking
the questions were Rabbi Jo-
seph Hirsch and B e r n a r d
Panush, co-chairmen of the
rules committee.
The contest was held under
the chairmanship of Rabbi
Emanuel Applebaum, principal
of the Adas Shalom Branch,
United Hebrew Schools. The
run-off was held at the sugges-
tion of the department of ed-
ucation and culture of the Jew-
ish Agency for Israel to stimu-
late Bible study in the local
schools.

of the United Hebrew Schools,
