Proclaimed Here

by Beth Yehudah
MRS. SANFORD KLEIN

day of Sanford A. Klein, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Herbert H. Klein,
19727 Hubbell. The ceremony took
place at Temple Israel, with Rabbi
M. Robert Syme officiating.
The bride's gown was of crystal
peau de soie combined with Alen-
con lace. The rose-patterned lace
bodice was traced with seed pearls,
pearl drops and crystal cluster. A
circlet of Alencon lace, embroi-
dered with seed pearls and accent-
ed with crystal drops, held her
tiered veil of silk illusion.
Maid of honor was Judith Ann
Klein, sister of the bridegroom.
Barbara Minkow, Barbara Lynn,
Diane Barr, Janet Klayman and
Nancy Gold of Cleveland were
bridesmaids.
Dr. Joel Grand was best man.
The ushers were Richard Gold of
Cleveland, Dr. Norman Lynn, Den-
nis Frank of Warrenville, 0., and
Harold Toppel.
Miss Susan Snow was flower
girl.
After a trip to Miami and Jamai-
ca, the couple will reside in Oak

Yeshivath Beth Yehudah dedi-
cated the new Daniel A. Laven
Building and Julius and Alice
Rotenberg High School in South-
field May 15 in the presence
of more than 500 participants.
Mr. and Mrs. Laven removed the
veil from the facade of the half-
million-dollar building, revealing
the name.
Rabbi Leib Bakst, the Rosh Ha-
Yeshivah, blessed the Laven fam-
ily.
Simultaneously, the Julius and
Alice Rotenberg High School was
dedicated. Mr. and Mrs. Roten-
berg accepted the honor of having
their names placed on the high
school building and called on the
community to support the 'largest
Jewish day school west of New
York City.
Nathan and Ruth Freedland cut
the ribbon opening the doors to
the new building to the strains of
the song "Open thy gates and the
doors of the world will open"
(Psalms).
Irving I. Bunim, lay leader of
the Young Israel movement, called
on the community to support the
Yeshivah as the only insurance for
Jewish cultural continuity.
Judge Nathan J. Kaufman, chair-
man of the dedication ceremonies,
welcomed the community and
called upon Hillel L. Abrams, pres-
ident of the Yeshivah, who gave
the history of the Yeshivah from
its inception.
Irwin I. Cohn rounded out the
dedication ceremonies with his
personal. commitment to the prog-
ress of Jewish education.
In a final proclamation of the
day, the remainder of the year
was designated as Yeshivah Dedi-
cation Year.
Health insurance cards have
now been mailed to over 15,000,000
persons 65 and older who have
established their eligibility for
hospital and medical insurance un-
der the Social Security Act, ac-
cording to Sam F. Test, social se-
curity district manager of the
Detroit Northwest office.
Cards for people who did not
sign up for the voluntary medical
insurance part of the program,
which requires a monthly premium
payment of $3, will first be mailed
in June.
This mailing is being delayed
since many among the 1,000,000
people who did not enroll for med-
ical benefits initially have changed
their decisions, and Congress has
extended the enrollment period to
May 31.

Medic Alert Bracelets
Means to Save Lives
A new look in "jewelry" that
could save their wearer's life is
being seen around Detroit.
They are stainless steel and sil-
ver Medic Alert bracelet and neck-
laces that carry an engraved
warning on the back, alerting
physicians and passersby to the
wearer's medical problem.
Today, over 110,000 persons with
medical problems and acute aller-
gies are wearing the Medic Alert
bracelets and necklaces.
Mayor Cavanagh proclaimed
May as Medic Alert Month.
The only charitable, tax-deduct-
ible organization of its kind in the
United States with the endorse
ment of a national medical asso-
ciation, the Medic Alert Founda-
tion International in Turlock,
Calif., keeps the medical records
of its members on file under serial
numbers corresponding to those
engraved on the bracelets.
The information in these files is
available on a 24-hour collect call
basis to physicians and other auth-
orized personnel in emergencies.
To facilitate this service, the
foundation's emergency number
also is engraved on the emblems.
Funds received from the pur-
chase of Medic Alert bracelets go
to pay for the emblems themselves
and support the educational pro-
gram.
Medic Alert information can be
obtained by writing to the Detroit
Association of Life Underwriters
office, Box 2525, Detroit.
