Temple Israel Choral Group Will Participate in Freedom Festival JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The House Committee of Israel's parliament approved new reg- ulations for the long-delayed elections for a new Chief Rab- binate Council of which two members will serve as Israel's Chief Rabbis, one Ashkenazic and one Sephardi. The regulations, which were promulgated by Religious Af- fairs Minister Zorach Warhaf- tig, after an inter-party agree- ment between Mapai and the National Religious Bloc, pro- vide for a nine-man elections committee. Four members will be named by the government on recommendation of the Reli- gious Affairs Minister and four by the present Rabbinate Coun- cil. The eight will jointly select an outsider to serve as chair- man. Candidates for the Chief posts must have served at least 10 years, the new regulations pro- vide. Israel presently has only a Sephardic Chief Rabbi, Yitz- hak Nissim. The post of Ash- kenazic Chief Rabbi has re- mained unfilled since the death several years ago of Dr. Isaac Herzog. • The Temple Israel Choral Group, under the direction of Cantor Harold Orbach, will represent Jewry in the special Religious Freedom Observance being held as part of the International Freedom Festival at 7:15 p.m. Sunday in Ford Auditorium. The Choral Group will sing "Ovinu Malkenu" and "Ki Onu Amecho," which it recently recorded with Cantor Orbach for the new album "Music of the High Holy Days." Sunday's pro- gram, sponsored by the Detroit-Windsor International Freedom Festival, is presented in cooperation with the Detroit Council of Churches and the Detroit Round Table of Cathloics, Jews and Protestants.

Lubavitcher Rebbe Denounces Indecent Dress of Both Sexes . - Indecent manner of dress on the part of both men and wom- en,- especially prevalent during the summer months, was sharp- ly. denounced by the Lubavitch- er Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, world leader of the Lubavitcher movement. With specific reference to the unbecoming behavior of many at summer resort areas, the Rebbe strongly censured those who cast from themselves the yoke of decency, exemplified by their indecent manner of clothing, and appealed for a greater measure of restraint and self respect.
