Lafayette Detroit Activities and Holiday Books This is the proper time to start teaching our youngsters the meaning of our Holy Days and the subsequent holidays. There are many good chil- dren's books available. From the Reform viewpoint, several impressive new story books have just been published. for very young children, by the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. In the new series of UAHC First Holiday Books are stories for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Sukkot and Simhat Torah, Tu b'Shavat and Shevuot.

Regrettably, these stories can not be recommended for Ortho- dox and Conservative children because of their Reform ap- proaches. The males are hatless, roles intended for boys in Ortho- dox and Conservative syna- gogues are assigned to girls and the general themes are Reform- bent. -The narratives, neverthe- less, lend themselves to more general utilization than merely Reform. A Another splendid UAHC contribution to the children's book shelf is "G'Dee's Book of Holiday Fun," by Helen Fine. It is a wprk book, with stories and piZtures, contain- ing many brainteagers and material for art work based on Jewish themes. "G'Dee's 'Book" has puzzles and quizzes. Rosh,Hashanah pic- ture games, suggestions for cut- outs, guides for making cere- monial objects, recipes and menus, ideas on building a for- est near a kibbutz in Israel and scores of other creative activi- ties. There is some humor in some of the suggested activities. Syria Releases Two Kidnaped from Israel TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Two tourists, one Atherican and one British. who were kidnaped by six Syrians a week ago, were returned unharmed to Israel through United Nations ob- servers. Israeli officials are still hunt- ing for another American tour- ist, Mark Goldmann, who is missing and possibly_held by the Syrians. The American, 19-year-old Philip Janovsky, and the British tourist, 18-year-old Elizabeth Weil, who are both at the Yavneh Kibbutz on a one-year training tour, left the kibbutz for a tour of northern Israel. While touring Eon Gev, they said, they were surrounded by arms-carrying Syrians, who fired. at them. Bullets hit their knap- sacks, but not them. They said they were blind- folded and taken to a site they could not identify. There they were questioned for hours at a time about. Israel military movements, the economic situa- tion and the forthcoming gen- eral elections Aug. 15.. Since they carried foreign passports. they were not ill-treated. • STOPS 30% FASTER on any road.
