Two Educators Leaving Detroit for Posts in Foreign Countries Two educators who have made notable contributions to Detroit's Jewish schools wil carry on their careers in foreign countries, starting next month. Dr. Sylvan Ginsburgh, principal of the Hebrew High School, United Hebrew Schools, will leave this country to take up permanent resi- dence in Israel Aug. 10. Next Wednesday, he bids farewell to Detroit, where he has held the UHS post since 1962. - Dr. Eli Grad, education director of the Shaarey Zedek Schools for 10 years, will direct the education and youth departments of Toronto's Cong. Beth Tzedec starting Aug. 1. • This will not be Dr. Ginsburgh's first extended stay in Israel. The most recent in a series of visits to the country was five years ago when he and the late Mrs. Gins- burgh spent a year there while he was doing research work. Accom- panying them was their son, Rob- ert, who plans to reside with his father. Robert, 20, recently re- ceived his masters degree in math- ematics at Yeshiva University and will enroll in a yeshiva in Israel. Although he has not yet con- firmed his professional plans, Dr. Ginsburgh said he will work either with the ulpanim (schools for teaching Hebrew to newcomers) or at the Hebrew University's Paul Baerwald School of Social Work in an administrative capacity. (Dr. Ginsburgh, Ginsburgh who holds a PhD in education from Dropsie College, received his masters degree in social welfare and education from the University of California at Berkley.) Born 54 years ago in Vilna, Poland, Dr. Ginsburgh describes his "aliyah" as "my life's yearn- ing." He has long been .affiliated with Farband, Labor Zionist Or- der. Dr. Ginsburgh, who held a num- ber of important educational posts in the East prior to his coming to Detroit, saw enrollment in the UHS high school department rise in three years from 175 to 235. There also was considerable re- duction in the dropout rate partly due to a counseling service he in- troduced. A complete set of record cards was instituted for students in both the intensive seven-hour program and the four-hour LTTI (Leadership Teacher Training Insti- tute) program for confirmands from the congregational schools. In addition to his administrative duties, Dr. Ginsburgh taught an adult ulpan class in beginning He- brew. 15 U.S. Youths Build Center for Tiny Community MEXICO CITY (JTA) — Fifteen young Americans, members of bhe Reform movement's -"Mitzvah Corps," are hard at work on a dramatic project to which they are devoting the entire summer—the construction of a community center for a tiny community of Indian Jews in this country. The com- munity is located in the village of Yenta Prieta, near Pachuca, about an hour's travel from Mexico City. In addition to building the new center, the youngsters are reno- vating and painting the small syn- agogue maintained by the com- munity, called "Ha Negev." They are contributing their services un- der the supervision of two adults, Albert Vorspan of New York, and Rabbi Leo Abrahamee, formerly spiritual leader of the Bet-El con- gregation in Guatemala. All the youngsters come from comfortable homes in the United States. The architect for the new center is a Christian, living in Pathtica, who is also contributing his talent. THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS 18—Friday, July 23, 1965 • Dr. Grad, who received his PhD in sociology of education from Wayne State University only last June, will engage in an intensive range of educa- t i o n a l program- ming in his new position. He anc his wife will be living at 24 War wick, Toronto 10. Ont. During his ten ure as Shaarey Zedek education director, m i d week instruction for all boys and girls from age C was instituted. Jr addition, the Sun day school pro gram was intensi fied to a Grad per-week curricu- limn, and the schools' program was extended through the 12th grade. The Israel Summer Pilgrimage was started for graduates of the high school, and a new teacher- training program begun in coop- eration with the Midrasha and Near Eastern Department of Wayne State University. Dr. Grad considers as most signi- ficant "the major broadening of the base of lay participation in Jewish education by the involvement of hundreds of active laymen and women in discussions, study and planning of a meaningful curricu- lum which is, hopefully, a credit to the richness of our Jewish heri- tage while being geared to the realities of American Jewish life." Soviet Jewish Policy Protested at Conclave of Latin Parliament LIMA, Peru (JTA)—The Consti- tuent Assembly of the Latin Ameri- can Parliament unanimously adopt- ed a resolution Monday protesting the Soviet Union's "practice of dis- crimination against the Jewish community" in the USSR and called on the government of the USSR "to eliminate" those practices, and to grant full religious and cultural rights to Jews. The parliament is a non-govern- mental but highly influential or- ganization composed of representa- tives from virtually every parlia- ment in Latin America. The resolution referred directly to a similar resolution condemning anti-Jewish discriminations in the USSR, adopted at Strasbourg, France, last May by the Council of Europe. In the measure, the Par- liament agreed with the Strasbourg assertion to the effect that "human rights are, by nature, of universal validity" and called upon all coun- tries practicing discriminations of any kind "to eliminate them and recognize the rights of minorities to exercise" their religious and cul- tural rights "in their fullest ex- tent." Prior to its consideration by the Constituent Assembly, the resolu- tion was approved by the Parlia- ment's political commission, under the presidency of Ulises Guiama- raes of Brazil. The measure had been intro- duced in the commission by Sena- tor Aquila Cornejo and Represent- atives Fernando Loen de Vivero, Andres Townsend Ezcurra and David Aguilar, all of Peru; Rep. Maximo Garrizo, chief of the Pana- manian delegation; and Rep. Jorge Montero Castro, head of the Costa Rican delegation.
