Camp Gan Israel to Dedicate S50,000
Hordes Memorial Structure Sunday
The $50,000 memorial for the
late William Hordes, prominent
Detroit business executive, philan-
thropist, and Zionist leader, will
be dedicated Sunday.
The William Hordes Memorial
Building is located at Camp Gan
Israel. a Jewish summer camp
near Fenton, about 60 miles from
Detroit. It will serve as the
camp's main building.
According to Harry Schumer,
chairman of the memorial fund
campaign, the building will in-
clude two kosher kitchens, a din-
ing hall, the Abe Kasle Library,
recreation rooms and dormitories.
Rabbi Berel Shemtov, director
of the Detroit regional office of
Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, the
Lubavitcher educational organiza-
tion, said that the camp is the
only Jewishly traditional one of
its kind in the entire area and
that it therefore rendered a uni-
que and essential service to the
community. It now accommodates
100 campers in each of two four-
week camping shifts.
Detroit's Gan Israel is one of a
world-wide network of camps op-
e r a t e d by Merkos L'Inyonei
Chinuch. Other Merkos camps are
in New York, Florida, Minnesota,
Canada, Brazil, England, France,
Denmark, Italy, Morocco, Aus-
tralia and Israel.
Philip Slomovitz will be chair-
man of the memorial dedication
program.

ville will be the guest speaker.

Lubavitcher Bookmobile
Visiting Catskill Resorts
T h e Lubavitcher bookmobile
with its complete stock of Jewish
literature and religious articles is
currently touring the Catskill
mountain area, New York State's
favorite summer resort for thou-
sands of Jewish families.
The bookmobile has been visit-
ing hotels, summer camps and
bungalow colonies since the begin-
ning of the summer, and will con-
tinue to do so until the end of the
summer vacation period.
The mobile Jewish library, the
only one of its kind in existence,
was launched two years ago by
Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, the
educational arm of the Luba-
vitcher movement, pioneers in the
field of Jewish education.
It carries a complete assort-
ment of Merkos books and pub-
lications and articles like Tefillin.
and Mezurzos to places where they
would otherwise not be so readily
available.
After its tour of duty in the
Catskills the bookmobile will re-
turn to its route of visits to out-
lying Jewish communities, schools
and college campuses.

Art Linkletter's
Blooper Harvest
Creates Hilarity
Had he lived to read it. Bernard
Baruch would have gotten a great
kick out of these two "bouquets
of bloopers" quoted by Art Link-
letter in his newest collection of
children's wisdom, "A Child's Gar-
den of Misinformation":
"The Baroque Period means
when Bernard Baroque was ac-
. . The Baroque Period
tive
instead of
means like this . .
the ordinary period we use to-
day like this . . ."
"Lovingly harvested," this Link-
letter collection of new quips and
•"daffinitions" by the youngsters
who unknowingly and unwittingly
go down in history as contributors
to hilarious literature.
Published by Bernard Geis Asso-
ciates (130 E. 56th, NY 22), this
new compendium is a sure contrib-
utor to adults' entertainment. When
a dinner party will be told that ...
"The King was called Henry
the Ate because he was always
eating,"
just imagine what fun it will pro-
vide and how it will call for more
and more portions of the Linkletter
harvest!
Or, think of the fun provided by
these quips:
"Russian spies like to hide be-
hind ironed curtains."
"A hybrid is a thing that is not
its real self."
"Nitrogen is a nun burning gas."
"Some Queens can't marry Kings
so they arrange to have Concerts."
"A President may be impeached
if the charge is brought by Mister
Me anor."
"Colonial expansion was caused
by constant overeating."
The Linkletter "harvest" is from
a garden so filled with bloopers
that it offers the best crop of
hilarity. What a resourceful collec-
tion of fun-producing quips!
And the illustrations by Charles
Saxon are equally hilarious and
fun-provoking, making this a
volume of perfect entertainment.
