At Groundbreaking for Glazer School Yiddish Invades
American Humor
At the groundbreaking ceremonies for the B. Benedict Glazer
Public School, last week, many prominent people in the community
joined in paying tribute to the memory of the late rabbi of Temple
Beth El whose name is being honored by the Board of Education with
a new school building. Construction has begun on the structure, to be
located from 12th to 14th Streets and Ford and LaBelle Streets.
Among those at the groundbreaking were (from left) Sidney J.
Karbel, Leonard N. Simons, Mark Glazer, son of the late Dr. Glazer;
Ada (Mrs. B. Benedict) Glazer, Mr. and Mrs. Jason Tickton (in back-
ground) and Dr. and Mrs. Max Winslow.
For years Borscht Belt come-
dians (those who worked the cir-
cuit of hotels in New York's Cat-
skill Mountains) used accents, ges-
tures and usages whose origins are
directly traceable to Yiddish. These
same comedians have now moved
out of the Catskills and into Bev-
erly Hills, and, according to the
current issue of Esquire Magazine,
their reliance on Yiddish and Yid-
dishisms has now become not only
a comic style, but the prevailing
comic style.
The article is appropriately en-
t i t l e d "The Yiddishization of
American Humor," written by the
humorist, Wallace Markfield.
Comics cited for their mastery
of the idiom are Jackie Mason,
Jack Carter, Jan Murray, Jack E.
Leonard, Buddy Hackett and Sid
Caesar.
Esquire's author claims (he ad-
mits he can't prove it) that the
Jewish comic style has invaded'
Madison Avenue advertising agen-
cies, too. Such slogans as "Fresh-
er than this there isn't" (for a
well-known cream cheese) and
"With soap it's loaded" have a
definite Yiddish ring to them. And
certainly, who could deny that
"Dress British—Think Yiddish" re-
sembles "Think British—Think By-
ford."
