Bobby Schwartz Plants
Tree in Israel
While Robert (Bobby) Allen
Schwartz is growing up, 200 trees
in Israel will be growing along
with him, a reminder of his 13th
birthday and the 200 guests he
honored.
Bobby and his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Sid Schwartz, 19909 Hart-
well, decided to try something
new for his Bar Mitzvah at Adas
Shalom Synagogue.
In recent years, the post-cere-
mony celebration has come to
mean splashy, often formal, af-
fairs. At the luncheon for Bobby,
however, there were simple dec-
orations: at each place was a
small paper tree holding a Jew-
ish National Fund certificate
expressing the boy's gratitude to
each guest.
Thirteen guests of honor were
called up to "light the birthday
candles," which turned out to be
the "planting" of 13 mock trees
on Bobby's cake.

Jointly created by the Kellogg
Co. and the U.S. Committee for
UNICEF, "Food Wonders of the
World" is a history of the world
through the foods we eat. It con-
tains hundreds of anecdotes about
the eating habits of 39 countries,
and answers such questions as:
Where did watermelon originate?
Who grew the world's first spin-
ach? What U.S. president intro-
duced spaghetti to the United
States? What famous American
dish was created by a dedicated
gambler?
From the Stone Age to the
Space Age, the book explores
dietary fancies and fads of kings,
queens, diplomats, religious lead-
ers, scientists, poets and phi-
losophers, from Confucius to
Robert visited Israel with his
parents. who planted a grove on
the name of the boy's grandpar-
ents, Rose and Julius Schwartz.
Bobby started his own garden of
trees adjoining the grove.

"bond" with Israel: Bobby's
birthday gift money will be used
to buy Israel Bonds.
Yeshivah High
Begins Computer
I
Training Program
A new program in IBM elec-
tronic computer training has begun
with the new semester in the 10th,
11th and 12th grades of the Beth
Yehudah High School, it was an-
ced jointly by Hillel L.
noui
mn
Abr s, president, and Rabbi
Sa el E. Cohen, principal of Beth
Yehudah High School.
The new program will provide
IBM computer training in solving
business, engineering and science
problems. A similar program is be-
ing inaugurated in the Beth Jacob
High School, girls' branch of Yesh-
ivath Beth Yehudah.
Spearheading the IBM training
program is Seymour J. Wolfson,
an alumnus of Yeshivath Beth
Yehudah and honors graduate in
physics from Wayne State Univer-
sity. He is presently a PhD can-
didate in physics at Wayne State
University.
Rabbi Cohen stated that this was
a pioneering effort on the part of
Yeshivath Beth Yehudah as this
I type of training on the high school
level-is practically nonexistent else-
where in the country. Yeshivath
Beth Yuhudah is the third school
in Michigan to initiate such a
program.
Reality and Symbol
The fasting and humiliation be-
fore God, the confession of sins
and contrition for them, and fer-
vent prayer for forgiveness were,
even before the destruction of the
Temple, the reality in regard to
the Day of Atonement, of which
the rites in the Temple were but
a dramatic syrabol.". 7--G. F. Moore.
