Arts Auditorium of Wayne State

accompanied by an accordianist
and a trio of musicians; and the
messages from spokesmen for the
Chabad movement inspired an
audience of more than 600.
Irwin I. Cohn, the chairman of
the evening, was so moved by
the performance and the mes-
sages, that he said he felt his
blood tingling with enthusiasm
aroused by the deep-rooted
spirit of the Hasidim.
The event was planned to honor
the 10th anniversary in Detroit of
Louis Levitan as director of the
Detroit Israel Bond Organization.
but the death of Levitan's father,
Eli Levitan, in San Francisco, last
Friday, prevented his attendance,
and the audience was asked to
stand in tribute to the memory of
the departed. Mrs. Emma Schaver
accepted the awards for Levitan
and delivered a brief address ex-
pressing her admiration for the
Hasidic movement and paying
honor to Levitan's activities.
Rabbi Zalman Posner of Nash-
ville, guest speaker, told of the
influence exerted by the Chabad
movement and especially com-
mended the work done here at
Camp Gan Israel.
Rabbi Posner's father-in-law,
Rabbi Aaron Kazarnovsky, brought
greetings from the Lubavitcher
Rebbe, Rabbi Menahem M.
Schneerson.
Adhering to a tradition, the
audience was standing while
Cohn read a message addressed
to him by the Lubavitcher
Rebbe.
Rabbi Y. M. Kagan introduced
the choir and explained its num-
erous selections.
Proceeds from the concert will
go to Chabad Camp Gan Israel.
