180 Temple Youth
Attend Conclave

Exchange Program
Amon.. Jewish Youth
Is Established in NY

NEW YORK (JTA) — A World
Jewish Fellowship to promote ex-
change programs between young
Jews in different countries has
been established here at the initia-
tive of rabbis and lay Jewish lead-
ers of all sectors of American
Jewry.
Rabbi Hertzel Fishman, chair-
man of the coordinating committee
of the new group, announced the
project. He said that the program
would enable young Jews of one
country to spend periods of time as
guests of carefully selected Jew-
ish families in another country,
"whose religious home practices do
not violate those of the visiting
fellow."
Through the new program, Rabbi
Fishman said, "each participant
will gain deeper knowledge and
appreciation of Jewish life in
other parts of the world, and will
broaden his perspective of the
general culture and life of the
host country."
The program will be launched
with a pilot project next summer in
which a small group of selected
American boys and girls in their
sophoniore or junior years in high
school will live with selected fam-
ilies in Israel.
Except in unusual circumstances,
Rabbi Fishman said, the host fam-
ily will receive no remuneration,
and the participating youngsters
will cover part of their expenses.
Local sponsoring groups in the
host countries will defray the bal-
ance of the expenses.
Applications for the 1967 sum-
mer pilot project must be sub-
mitted to the fellowship by March
31.

Last weekend, Michigan State
Temple Youth held a conclave at
Temple Emanu-El. The event was
attended by 180 MSTY-ites repre-
senting cities from all over the
state of Michigan and parts of
Indiana.
The topic of discussion in the
Saturday afternoon classes was
"Reconstructionism." The various
workshops included debate, Hay-
dala, newspaper, choir and "swap
shop."

With the classes, workshops,
services and a jam Saturday night,
everyone was kept very busy and
had a fantastic time.
A special thanks goes out to John
Zussman and Ellen Ferar, the
chairmen for the planning of the
week-end.
