Conductor lzler Solomon
Expresses Yom Kippur
Regrets, but Show Goes On
El Al Brings Mazal
(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)
INDIANAPOLIS—Dr. Izler Sol-
omon, the noted conductor, ex-
pressed regrets to a delegation rep-
resenting the Indianapolis Jewish
community that it had not been
possible for him to avoid conduct-
ing the Indianapolis Symphony Or-
chestra in a concert on the eve of
Yom Kippur. He said that he real-
ized that there
would be a reac-
tion in the com-
munity but that
the exigencies of
scheduling con
certs far in ad-
vance, the eco-
nomic aspects
and the need to
fill booked en-
gagements h a d
made it impos-
sible to change
the date.
The request to
cancel the per-
tormancewas
made to the con- Dr. So omon
ductor, one of three in this coun-
try publicly identified as Jewish,
by a delegation composed of rab-
bis Sidney Steiman of Temple
Beth-El Zedeck and Murray Saltz-
man of Indianapolis Hebrew Con-
gregation; Philip Pecar, president
of the Jewish Community Relations
Council, and Frank Newman, di-
rector of the Jewish Welfare Fed-
eration. According to Pecar, Dr.
Solomon stressed his identification
with the Jewish community and
noted that he had been in Israel
during the War of Independence.
Dr. Solomon readily agreed, Pe-
car said, that Jewish members of
the orchestra would be excused
from appearing that evening if
they requested it.
Full Equality Despite
Black Demagogues Urged
NEW YORK (JTA) — Jewish
support for "full equality" for Ne-
groes, despite anti-Semitism voiced
recently by "black demagogues,"
was urged last weekend by the Na-
tional Community Relations Advis-
ory Council. The council is the
coordinating body of nine national
Jewish agencies and 80 local Jew-
ish community councils concerned
with interracial and interreligious
problems.
The directive, which was re-
leased in the council's "Guide to
Program Planning for Jewish Com-
munity Relations in 1967-1968,"
declared that its member agencies
have a "continuing obligation" to
interpret and to combat anti-Semit-
ism among Negroes. It also warned
against mistaking "legitimate pro-
test" by Negroes for anti-Semitism,
and against "exaggerating the true
dimensions" of anti-Jewish expres-
sions that may arise.
The guide added that the Jew-
ish community should not be "de-
flected from its support of equal-
ity for Negroes on the ground that
they are anti-Semitic. Such a "de-
flection" would be both "self-de-
feating" and a repudiation of "a
fundamental tenet of Jewish tradi-
tion—equal justice for all," the
report said.
Warsaw Notifies JDC
to Terminate Activities
in Poland by Year's End
TEL AVIV JTA) — Louis Broi-
do of New York, chairman of the
American Jewish Joint Distribu-
tion Committee, said that JDC ac-
tivities would be halted in Poland
Dec. 31, at the request of the
Polish government.
The JDC was invited to begin a
program of aid to Polish Jews
about 10 years ago by the Polish
government. After the death in
Prague last month of Charles H.
Jordan, JDC executive vice chair-
man, the Polish government noti-
fied the JDC that Polish Jewry
did not need further aid, Broido
said.
The JDC is now active only in
Romania among East European
countries.
El Al Israel's Airlines' ground
hostesses Margaret Barr and
Yolan DePhiMps say "good-by"
to little 5-year-old Mazal Schlomo
before her return flight to Is-
rael. Mazal and her father were
brought to the USA by El Al in
order to undergo a delicate
heart operation performed suc-
cessfully by the famous heart
surgeon, Dr. Michael DeBakey,
at Houston HospitaL In the past
few years, Mazal was hospi-
talized seven times and her par-
ents were warned by their doc-
tor in Israel that this operation
was necessary before her condi-
tion became hopeless.
The most expensive custom-built
car was the Darin-Di Dia 150, built
and designed by Andy Di Dia of
Detroit, and exhibited at the Pitts-
burgh Civic Auditorium in Nov.
1962. Its price was $159,000.
Dr. George Wald, Harvard Biochemist,
Wins Nobel Prize for Eye Research
STOCKHOLM — Prof. George
Wald, a world authority on the
biochemistry of perception and a
Harvard biology professor for 20
years, was one of the three co-
winners of the 1967 Nobel Prize
for medicine.
Dr. Wald shared the prize with
Profs. Haldan Hartline of Rocke-
feller University and Ragnar Granit
of Stockholm, now with Oxford
University, England. The three,
researchers into visual processes,
will share a prize of $62,000.
The Lasker Prize was awarded
to Dr. Wald in 1953, and he re-
ceived the Rumford Medal in 1959
for biochemical research. He re-
ceived training in Germany before
the war, and studied at Columbia
University later.
The importance of Vitamin A to
vision was one of his discoveries
in the 1930s. Dr. Wald's main con-
cern is the receiving fuction of
the eye and chemistry's role in the
mechanism of vision. He has
reached a number of important
findings about photochemical re-
actions fo cells in the retina at the
back of the eye. He also co-
authored "General Education in a
Free Society," which have guided
Hervard's program in general
education.
The citation accompanying the
Lasker Award to Wald read: "He
has given mankind a new picture
of one of the most treasured gifts
of life — the capacity to see."
Dr. Wald credited his wife, Ruth,
for "making very important con-
tributions" to his work. She has

Friday, October
been his collaborator on experi-
ments in the field of visual per-
ception physiology.
They have two children, Deborah,
6, and Elijah, 8. Dr. Wald also
has two other sons by a previous
marriage, Michael, 30, and David,
27.

. . . scratch the green bark of a sapling, or wantonly twist it in the soil, and a scarred or crooked oak will tell
of the act for centuries to come. So it is with teaching. Impressions made upon the young mind will last
forever. The child, like the sapling, will become largely what it is taught. As sculpture is to a block of
marble, education is to a human soul. The proper education brings to light the statesman, the scientist, the
peacemaker the world might never have known. So, there you are—we at the B.F. Chamberlain Company
think it's mighty important to select the right school, school district—and consequently the right teachers—
for your child. For the past 19 years we have helped thousands of families find new homes in the Southfield
area. We are extremely proud of the schools and the teachers you'll find here. You'll discover that we are
just as concerned with the school your child will attend as we are with the house in which he will live. After
all, his future really depends on both.
