Council delegate assembly March

M. Zeltzer. Edwin Shifrin was

bert Sidlow, chairman of the in-
ternal relations committee, of-

member organizations interested
in the work of JPS.
Guest speaker at the assembly,
I. L. Kenen, editor of the Near
East Report, presented a political
outline of Middle Eastern affairs
for the past 20 years. He said this
election year in the U.S. is a cru-
cial one for Israel and her friends
here must express their sentiments
to candidates for office. President
Johnson has much support from
American Jewry because of his
friendly policy toward Israel, said
Kenen, who added that he doubts
Mr. Johnson would risk that sup-
port by a change in policy.

JACK BIGELMAN, commander
of the Detroit Police Reserves at
Livernois Station, precinct 10, says
that a new class in reserves will
be started in April. . . Complete
training program for recruits be-
tween ages 29 and 45 consists of
every phase of police operations,
including first aid. . . . Also use
of fire arms, desk training, com-
munications, scout car, etc. . . .
Applications, which can be made
at any p r e c i n c t, are cleared
through the FBI. . One of the
biggest factors in the police re-
serves is combating lack of com-
munication between police and the
man on the street. . . . Average
citizens have no knowledge or un-
derstanding of police work, there-
fore respect is lacking, mainly
among juveniles. . . . Jack feels
that parents who join will be more
capable of explaining police work.
. Call Jack either at the sta-
tion or at home, DI 2-2206.

ONE DAY RECENTLY, Larry
Crantz noticed an old car parked
near his on a parking lot. . . . It
probably ran on love and coaxing,
says Larry, but it sported two
brand-new snow tires. . . . On one
tire was written in white chalk,
"To Ruth with love, Bill," . . .
and on the other was written,
"Happy Birthday, Bill. Love,
Ruth."
READER WHO GIVES name but
prefers anonymity sends in these
gems of wisdom . . . "Humility
disappears as soon as you talk
about it" . . . and "Our only quar-
rel with an inferiority complex is
that the people who need one
never have it."
ANNE RENEE KRUGER. 21'a-
year-old daughter of Carol and
David Kruger, was staying with
grandma Ida Wolfe in Southfield
on a Saturday. . . . Anne asked
for a pencil and paper so she
could write, and her grandmother
said, "Annie, you shouldn't write
on Shabbos." . .. "But grandma,"
replied Anne, "I don't want to
write on Shabbos, I want to write
on paper."
STYLE SHOW BY North Park
Towers Barbers is slated for some
time in May in the high-rise pent-
house. . . . Interested gents in-
elude Craig Smith, Jack and Shelly
Abramson, Harold S a r k o and
Meyer Fishman, to name just a
few. . . . Promises to be quite a
show. . . . One of the biggest fea-
tures will be the shop's new
wrinkle-removing process . . . to
say nothing about actually growing
hair.
COMMUNITY SCENE . . . a
woman wearing a hat that'll never
go out of style . . . it'll just look
ridiculous year after year. . . . The
elderly lady telling Merle Barak-
man of WKBD-TV (Ch. 50) that
she thought the United Nations
was a good thing, "but it's a pity
they have so many foreigners in
it!"

from Egypt's President Nasser; a
Soviet Union which suffered a bit-

wants to "keep the pot boiling" in

popularity he once had among his
people.
