Will' Leave- Antique Behind

WSU's Hillel Set to Move Down the Street

By PAM SHRIMAN

Moving into a new home is an
exciting experience — even if it's
only two blocks away. The excite-
ment redoubles if the old home is
a somewhat dingy, three-story
antique-looking house at 4841
Second, and the new home is a
million-dollar, ultra-modern, in-
terior-decorated complex. This is
the move the Bnai Brith Hillel
Foundation on Wayne State Univ-
ersity's campus will make in Feb-
ruary.
Hillel will be one of the 14
religious organizations to set up
shop in the Charles Grosberg
Religious Center, part of Wayne's
mammoth new $5,000,000 student
center.
How the leadership of Hillel
feels about the radical change can
best be described by Rabbi Max
Kapustin, director, who can be
found at the present headquarters
on Second Avenue.
Although the facade of the old
house blends in with the other
converted residences on the block,
it is at once distinguishable by a
large white menora which fills a
good portion of the front window.

Painted footprints up the side-
walk direct the visitor to a big
wooden door. Sounds of laugh-
ter vibrate from two rooms off
the narrow hallway, occupied by
students and tattered furniture.

Up a creaky wooden stairway
and at the end of a somewhat
smaller, narrower hallway is the
rabbi's office.
Seated in the small cluttered
room with torn furniture and car-
peting worn to the floor, peeling
gray paint revealing the plaster
on the wall, Rabbi Kapustin talks
of the organization's luxurious
new residence.

Rabbi Kapustin hopes participa-
tion in Hillel will increase along
with the move. "We hope to pro-
vide better facilities and service
in every respect with a large ex-
pansion of the programs offered,
he said, adding that the new struc-
ture will enable Hillel to offer
more lectures, discussion groups,
classes and coffee hours.
The Grosberg Religious Center
will be in the middle of the hubub ,
and everyday activity of the stu-
dents. Since 14 religious organiza-
tions will be housed in the center,
many common programs will be
possible.

The center will have a large
central facility to be shared by
the organizations, plus individual
offices and rooms for each unit.
The core includes a library and
reading lounge, seminar and
class rooms and a 'meditation'
room.

The organizations plan such pro-
grams as symposia on student un-
rest and lectures on the place of
religion on campus. Throughout
the year there will be cooperative-
ly sponsored nationally and inter-
nationally known speakers.
However, Rabbi Kapustin warn-
ed that "there is a misconception
that Hillel is concerned only with
religion, and this is not so." He
stressed that Hillel is concerned
with "clarifying, airing and under-
standing the problems which con-
cern the Jewish college student to-
day."
Rabbi Kapustin said the religi-
ous organizations are planning a
two-week "grand opening." There
will be discussions, films and
coffee hours throughout each day
to introduce the student body to
the religious organizations and to
the center.

With its new facilities, Hillel
hopes to reach a greater per-
centage of the Jewish student
population at Wayne, many of
whom know little about the or-
ganization. Rabbi Kapustin said
contact is possible only if in-
formation is provided on option-
al religious preference cards at
registration time.
But, Rabbi Kapustin admitted

that of an estimated 3,000 Jewish
students at Wayne, only 1,200 voice
their Jewishness on the preference
cards. Hillel now has approxi-
mately 600 "registered" partici-
pants.
The Grosberg Center will occupy
the center's northern "tower" sec-
tion up to the seventh floor. Hillel
offices comprise a good part of
the fifth floor surrounded by such
units as the Eastern Orthodox,

Hillel's new facilities will in-
clude a large lounge, synagogue
with a built-in ark, reception area,
the Maurice Zeiger Memorial Li-
brary, two kosher kitchens, an
office-workroom, conference
rooms, the rabbi's office and stor-
age rooms. Rabbi Kapustin said
the kitchens eventually will offer
full kosher food service at a nomi-
nal fee. However, at the outset,
meals will be limited to an occa-
sional light lunch.
The rabbi counsels hundreds of
students a year and considers it
helpful to those who must con-
stantly adjust to the pressures and
problems of college life. He wel-
comes any student with a prob-
lem, but suggests that an appoint-
ment be made since he also
teaches several classes and is not
always available. He said some-
times students are referred from
the university counseling center,
but a great many seek his advice
on their own.

"The danger lies in retreat, to
give up, to fold the arms and say
`the hell with them,' " Dr. Haber
said. "Then the Negroes will
say 'the hell with Jews.' We
must join in a concentrated ef-
fort with industry, government
and other social agencies to help
the disadvantaged to help them-
selves."

Eleazar Lipsky, New York attor-
ney and author, who spoke at the
afternoon session, pointed out
similarities and differences in
problems in Israel and in this
country.
"In Israel there is no draft card
burning because the Israeli knows
that he is his own survival, that
it is up to him. In this country
we look to the government for
survival."
He said that Jewish youth in this
country is not defending Jewish
ideas so that Jews are being "ideo-
logically emasculated."
Mrs. Norman Naimark and Mrs.
George M. Stutz were co-chairmen
of the institute. Mrs. Joseph H.
Jackier, president of the women's
division presided at the business
meeting.

3,000 Dreidels Spin Off
Center's 'Assembly Line'

Y. (JTA) — A
group of enthusiastic volunteers of
the Albany Jewish Community
Center completed work on produc-
tion of more than 3,000 dreidels in
the center's new dreidel factory.
In operation since the start of
November, the factory has orders
from local synagogues, the local
Hebrew day school and the cen-
ter's own nursery school and jun-
ior department, according to Jay
Bachrach, program director, who
is supervising all Hanuk a pro-
grams at the Jewish Community
Center.
About half of the dreidels are
being sent out unfinished so that
the children in the religious schools,
centers and synagogues can
decorate them as part of class
activities. The other half are fin-
ished dreidels to be given out by
the recipient Jewish institutions.

at the Einstein college, said that
the anticipated 3,000 children who
will take part in the program us-

except in times of extreme illness.
He added that "impersonal and
episodic care must give way to
comprehensive and continued care
from birth in early childhood."

Speakers Review
Critical Issues

Jewish agencies must join with
industry and government to give
priority to the solution of the ur-
ban crisis or we will see "full
polarization of hate by extreme-
ists," Dr. William Haber, special
adviser to the president of the
University of Michigan, told 500
women at the Jewish Community
Center.
Speaking at the annual Women's
Institute of the Jewish Welfare
Federation, Dr. Haber said that
the first reaction of Jews to Negro
anti-Semitism is to ignore the in-
cidents.
