Daroff, noted Jewish community leader, have purchased a midtown build- ing which will serve as head- quarters of the Delaware Valley Council of the American Jewish Congress here, and will be named "Samuel H.

Daroff but also the Daroff family, "espe- cially his two brothers, Joseph and Michael, both giants in philanthropic and communal activities." A plaque to be un- veiled in the building will pay tribute to the memory of the parents of the Daroff brothers, the late Harry and Ethel Daroff. Dedication exercises will be held at the new AJC headquar- ters on Jan. 24. Among digni- taries scheduled to participate in the event will be Governor William W. Scranton; Mayor James H. J.
