now I am able to carry on a fair-
ly good conversation in Hebrew."
Many have continued their stu-
dies and will put their knowledge
to good use by taking a summer
trip to Israel.

NEW YORK—A program enabl-
ing Americans to take their senior
high school year in Israel has been
added to the curriculum of the
America-Israel Secondary School

The new senior year of study
will be at Sde Boker, the home-
town of Ben Gurion, and the stu-
dents will live at the Midrasha in
that community. The sophomore
and junior years will be continued
at Alonei Yitzhak and Kfar Blum.

in the main Center building.
The second session will be sup-
ervised by Mrs. Harriet Lefko,
a guitar instructor and nursery
school teacher at the Center for
nine years.
Programs for Playland include
arts and crafts, swim time and in-
struction trips, free play and Jew-

Max Fishier to Direct 'Volunteer Army' for President

Detroit's "volunteer's volunteer,"
Max M. Fisher, head of New De-
troit inc., was named Wednesday
by the President to mobilize a co-
ordinating committee of volunteers
to assist him in the rebuilding of
cities and solving of social prob-
lems in the United States.
It was reported that Mr. Nixon
has named his financier friend to
help carry out a Nixon campaign
pledge to provide "a new mea-
sure of reliance on volunteer ef-
forts by people who care." Fisher
was a supporter of Mr. Nixon in
that campaign. He continues to
serve as the President's informal
adviser and liaison with the Amer-
ican Jewish community.
Fisher will serve as the

President's special consultant
to coordinate the program under
the direction of former Mich-
igan Governor George Romney,
a friend of Fisher's who is sec-
retary of housing and urban
development.

Romney will head the Cabinet
Committee on Voluntary Action,
whose task will be to find specific
answers to the question of what
people can do for their country
Fisher will organize the private
sector, and Romney will serve on
an "ambassadorial" level with
that sector.
Voluntary efforts by citizens
would cover everything from job
placement. youth counseling, and
care for the elderly to neighbor-

hood improvement and coopera-
tion with local governments on
major civic undertakings.
Fisher has been working for
some time with Romney on the
project in Washington, but he
said he doesn't intend to leave the
New Detroit post. He will spend
more than half his time in
Washington and round the coun-
try for his new job.
