22—Friday, May 24,.1968 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Beth Shalom Dinner Honors Rabbi, Nets $55,000 in Israel Bond Sales At the Beth Shalom testimonial dinner, which honored Rabbi Mordecai S. Halpern for his 13 years as spiritual leader of the congregation, and resulted in $55,000 in Israel Bond subscriptions, seated (center) is Rabbi Halpern, with Mrs. Halpern and Ira Hirsch- mann (right), the guest speaker, standing (from left), Albert Rosen- blum, president of the congregation; Stewart Kepes and Edward Gluklick, the dinner co-chairmen. More than 400 attended the affair. Hirschmann, in a stirring appeal, recounted how as special envoy of President Roosevelt to Turkey in 1944, he "bought Jewish children at $300 a head" and smuggled them into Palestine. "Nobody else wanted the children, including the United States," he said. Hirsch- mann, who rescued thousands of Jews from the Holocaust, and has just returned from a U.S. State Department mission to Jordan, said the Arabs realize they can't defeat Israel while the Jews of the free world and especially America stand behind Israel, but the Arabs feel the Jews in America will get tired and withdraw their support, and then the Arabs will attack Israel. Zvi Lourie Dead at 62; Was Head of Jewishs Agency Organization Dept. (Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News) TEL AVIV—Zvi Lourie, head of the Jewish Agency's organization department, died Tuesday at age 62. Born in Lodz, Poland, he came to Israel in 1925, and was a mem- ber of Kibutz Ein Shemer. He was a leader in the Mapam Party.

Hal- prin, chairman of the American section of the Jewish Agency, is- sued the following statement Wed- nesday on the death of Lourie: "In the passing of Zvi Lourie, Israel and the Jewish Agency have sustained a major loss.

"A man of the soil, he loved every inch of Eretz Israel and was a dedicated adherent of the Kibbutz movement. "As head, at various times, of the Aliya, Youth, and Organiza- tion departments of the Jewish Agency, he played a leading role in the growth and development of Israel and the world ZiOnist movement. Truly one of Israel's most illustrious sons, his memory is indelibly inscribed in the hearts and minds of the hundreds of thousands of men, women and children that he helped to find a new life in the Jewish state." Pianist Ray Lev, 'Second Myra Hess NEW YORK—Pianist Ray Lev died Monday at age 56. Her last public appearance was on April 28, when she played the Schumann piano concerto at Philharmonic Hall. During the last five years she made three tours of Europe, giving concerts in Berlin, Vienna, Munich, Stockholm and London; for two of those years she served on the fa- culty of Tokyo University of Arts and Music. She was said to be the first American to hold such a post in Japan. The Russian-born • pianist was brought to this country as an in- fant. Her father, Moses Lev, was a cantor who sang in New York, New Haven and other cities. Miss Lev sang in her father's choir early in life, and decided to be- come a pianist after hearing a Paderewski recital. Her many recordings once prompt the Saturday Review to call her "a second Myra Hess." She toured Israel in 1950, and played in many places seldom visited by es- tablished artists.

G & G DRUGS 13508 W.1 MILE Phone 341-0680 THE LITTLEST GIANT IN THE DRUG BUSINESS For $499, Lufthansa does more than give you a 15-day Italian tour. It keeps you from feeling like a tourist. We call It the "Roman Sojourn." It's our name for a special tour during which we try to do for you what you'd do for your- self if you had a real home-town knowledge of every major city in Italy. We take care of all the usual traveler-tormenting details about food, lodgings, transportation, tickets, tips. All you do is enjoy yourself. We'll start by jetting you to Munich and give you a day in the gorgeous Austrian Alpine country. Then we'll smooth your way through Milan, Florence, Pisa, Rome, Naples, Capri, Pompeii, and later take you back over the Swiss Alps to Zurich, Stuttgart and Frankfurt. For fifteen days we guide you to the places you want to see, help you do what you want to do. And if some morning or afternoon you'd like to skip something; that's all right, too. Fact is, long before your Roman Sojourn is over, you'll tell yourself that if you'd known Lufthansa could make seeing Italy this easy, you would have gone last year.
