Report 'Very Little' Jewish Life
Left for 25,000 Lithuanian Jews

NEW YORK, (JTA) — There
are 25,000 Jews now in the
Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Re-
public, and 70 per cent of them
speak Yiddish, yet there are no
Yiddish newspapers and no
schools employing Yiddish for
instruction, according to an ad-
mission by a Lithuanian Jew
who is the editor-in-chief of
Lithuania's Community Party
organ, reported here in the
New York Times .
The Times dispatch, by Theo-
dore Shabad reported an inter-
view, held in Yiddish, with Gen-
rikas 0. Zimanas formerly a
Yiddish school teacher at Kau-
nas (Kovno), now the chief
editor of the Lithuanian-
language newspaper Tiesa, or-
gan of the Lithuanian Commun-
ist Party, and member of that
party's presidium.
At his office, in Vilna,
Zimanas said there were now
15,000 Jews in Vilna, only about
1,000 of whom are former Vilna
residents. Yiddish, reported
Shabad, was still widely spoken
in Vilna.
Zimanas was quoted as saying
there was "very little" Jewish
life left in Vilna, but "Yiddish
culture will not disappear."
"The weight of tradition is too
great," the Jewish Communist
stated. He said that the recently

issued bi-monthly;
Sovietish
Haimleand, a Yiddish magazine,
helped fill the need for a
medium of cultural expression
for the USSR's Yiddish-speaking
Jews.
As for anti-Semitism, Zimanas
was quoted as saying there was
no connection between the fact
that Jews have recently been
!convicted of "economic crimes"
and the fact that the conviction
of Jews had been given wide
!publicity in the Soviet press.
"In general," Zimanas said,
"all this talk about anti-Semi-
tism in the Soviet Union does
not bother me, because we know
that there is no official anti-
Semitism."

Court Bars Officials
of U. S. from Leaving
Israel During Suit

TEL AVIV (JTA) — A Tel
Aviv district court issued an
order barring two American di-
rectors of the United States Op-
erations Mission from leaving
Israel in a dispute over dis-
missal pay
The Mission concluded opera-
tions this month and some 70
Israelis working for the mission
were sent dismissal notices ef-
fective June 11. The workers de-
manded dismissal indemnification,
a common practice in Israel.
When the request was rejected,
the workers filed suit and asked
the court for an order to bar the
USOM officials from leaving the
country pending a hearing oil the
suit.

AT 38 YEARS OLD. former
Detroit builder and fencing
champ Gerry Taines, now living
in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., has had
it . . . competitively, that is . .
After winning the Florida state
s a b r e championship recently,
Gerry is calling it quits . . .
"I'm getting a little too old,"
says Gerry, who while in Detroit
was inter-collegiate three weapon
champion at Wayne State U. in
1946 and a member of the 1948
Olympic squad .. . At 38, Gerry
still wields a mighty swish, also
being the 1960-61 epee champ of
Florida . . . But even though
he uses the "getting old" bit,
Gerry really doesn't have the
time to train, anymore . . .
"After all," he quips, "you
wouldn't want me to deprive
people of living in my houses
down here!"

ASKED WHAT HE was read-
ing, 10-year-old Sanford Glaser
told his mother Sylvia Glaser. it
was a book called "Child Train-
ing" that he had borrowed from
a neighbor . .. Sylvia asked if it
was amusing and Sanford re-
plied, "I'm not reading it for
that. I just wanted to see if I
have been brought up properly."
