Israeli _Hanukah at Center

In the kibbutzim of Israel, ac-
cording to the Jewish Center's Is-
raeli staff member Asher Tarmon,
the tallest building in the area,
-usually a silo, is picked as the
foundation for a huge hanukiah
(menorah) lighted during the
Hanukah Festival.
It is in this tradition, that a 12th-
grade boys club at the Center, the
Jaguars, is building a large
hanukiah atop the Center's main
building at Meyers at Curtis, to be
lit all during the holiday.
In addition, the Center will con-
tinue its annual daily candlelight-
ing ceremonies in the Center's
main lobby — using a much small-

ro

er menorah. Candles will be lit
at 4 each afternoon and at 7:30
each evening. All members of the
community are invited.
Other Hanukah programs at the
Center will include an outdoor
torch light parade 7 p.m. Dec.
18; an Israeli - Detroiter Y outh
Group Hanukah Drama Festival
8 p.m. Dec. 23; a Sunday morning
Jewish Parent's Institute Mac-
cabiad (Olympic Games) Dec. 19;
and a presentation by the Teeny
Tiny Lady and the Young Dancers
Guild of "The Menorah That Is a
Megillah," accompanied by the
children's choir of Cong. Shaarey
Zedek, 2 and 3 p.m. Dec. 19.

English Girl, 20,-
Youngest Lawyer

LONDON — Evelyn Shulamith
Israel looks like any pretty 20-
year-old with such things as dates
and textbooks on her mind. But
Miss Israel soon will be a member
of the legal profession in England,
perhaps the youngest person ever
to pass the final exams prior to
becoming a solicitor (lawyer).
Actually, Miss Israel will be ad-
mitted to the bar next year, when
she turns 21. But in August, when
she was still 19, she passed all
seven papers in the final examina-
tion of the law society, the London
Jewish Chronicle reported.
She will be with her lather's
firm.
