Collegians Debate
Who Is a Jew? •
The first discussion group spon-
sored by the Michigan Association
of Jewish College students met July
30 in the Jewish Center. Student
participants drove in from Ypsilan-
ti and Flint.
"An Exploration of Jewish Iden-
tity—What Being Jewish Means to
Me" was the topic of the day.
Larry Folkoff, an MAJCS cor-
respondent from the University of
Detroit. began the discussion
which touched upon such prob-
lems as dual loyalty, conflicts of
students who have no Jewish iden-
tity, the difficulty of getting cor-
rect answers to questions on Jew-
ish subjects and the effect of
American society on the Jews. The
opinion also was expressed that

As a memorial to his son Scott,
the publication of a book of the
boy's poetry has been issued by
Detroiter Stanley Kabran, who is
planning to establish a scholarship
fund at Cass High School, where
Scott would have graduated in
June.
The title of the
paperback book.
"Motionless Lest
It Fall." is taken
from the first
poem, written in
March 1969. Scott
had not yet left
his father's home
for an apartment.
where he and
three other youths
were slain in Scott
May by the father of an acquaint-
ance.
In an introduction to the poems,
Scott is described as a youth who
loved life, who felt deeply about
inequities he saw around him.
When he and a friend moved
into their first apartment on Second
Ave. last December. "he was well
aware that many kids, including
some of his friends, had embarked
on similar efforts, and had failed
miserably," according to the intro-
duction.
"Exuberant and optimistic, he
and his close friend, Greg, worked
hard as full-time students at Cass
while paying bills they had never
encountered under their parents'
wings. He realized that he had
taken on most of the responsibili-
ties of an adult, and he was going
to try to prove to the adult world
that kids could be responsible, up-
standing, contributing citizens. He
accomplished this in many ways,
and commanded the respect of his
peers and many adults as well."
•
Scott's mother, the former
Shirley Stocker, died when he
was age 5 1 2; his father reared
Scott, sending the boy to Cong.
Beth Shalom, where he was Bar
Mitzva. His great-aunt, Bella
Goldberg, the pianist, now makes
her home in Natanya.
The book is available at the
Family Reading Center, 15314 W.
Seven Mile. or from Stanley Kab-
ran, 15310 W. Seven Mile. 342-4176.
Proceeds will go to the Cass schol-
arship fund.
- The poem that best sums up
Scott's view of life and love is the
! one on which the title is based:
ing in rapidly, but elderly people

Mile Road near Greenfield should
not hesitate to send in applica-
tions, Joseph H. Jackier, presi-
dent, has announced.
More than 600 applications have
already been received, Jackier
said, but added that no eligible
senior citizen should feel that it is
hopeless to apply because so many
others also desire to rent Me apart-
ments.
"Some people may not be eli
gible for residency in Federation
Apartments because of age or in-
come or health, and some people
will have changed their minds be-
fore occupancy begins next year,"
Jackier said.
