In Loving Memory of Our
Dear and Precious Mother
FRANCES ROTH
June 21, 1962
We cherish many
thoughts of you
Within our hearts today
Thoughts of all you meant
to us
In your own special way.
We are sure you have
always known this,
But with time it grows
still clearer
There was just one you,
in all the world,
And no one could be
dearer.
A mother who was kind
and loving,
A mother who was sweet
and dear,
Who was life's greatest
blessing
Every day of every year.
If the world was ours to
give,
We'd give it, yes, and
more
To have you, beloved
Mom,
Once again—greet us at
the door.
It must be true what they
say,
. That God chooses the
best;
He took your hand, and
made us part,
He gave you rest, but
broke our hearts.
Oh! what a sad two
years!

countries. Born in Poland, he came
to the United States in 1911.
A statement mourning his death
was issued on behalf of the Jewish
Agency by Mrs. Rose Halprin,
leaves a great void in Jewish life
"The tragic death of Louis Segal
chairman of its American section.
and in the Zionist movement," the
statement said.
"Throughout his career, he
gave of himself unstintingly to
the Zionist movement and to
every constructive endeavor in
Jewish life. His services to the
Jewish people were that of a
dedicated, militant Zionist lead-
er who led and inspired the Jew-
ish working masses affiliated
with the Labor Zionist move-
ment to work unceasingly in be-
half of Israel and the Jewish
people generally.
"His specific role in building
the Farband-Labor Zionist Order
to its present place of eminence
in Jewish life constitutes a dis-
tinguished chapter in American
Jewish history. We shall sorely
miss his counsel, his dedication
and his enthusiasm.
"In the name of the executive
of the Jewish Agency, and the
World Zionist Organization, we
express our deepest condolences
to his family, to the Labor iZon-
ist movement and to the Jewish
people who have suffered an ir-
reparable loss," the statement con-
cluded.

for 7 Months at Yale

FAIGENBAUM
NEW HAVEN—A pre-medical
student at Yale lived in a four-
foot-wide passageway without be-
ing discovered for the past seven
months.
Alan Kornfeld„ 22 years old and
six-foot-three, emerged from his
hiding place after school gradu-
ation exercises. He admitted that
the shaft was a little cold in win-
ter, but once that problem had
been overcome with an electric
blanket, he managed quite well.
A fifth year special student,
Kornfeld, an Oklahoman, lacked
the funds for living expenses, so
chose the ventilation shaft as a
temporary hideaway in one of
Yale's 12 residential colleges.
