Hebrew U. Honors Backer California Synagogue Youth Help Maintain
of Biochemistry Building Jewish Cemeteries Dating• Back to Gold Rush
JERUSALEM — One of the
staunchest supporters of the lie-
brew University, Jerry Sudarsky—
formerly of Bakersfield, Calif. and
now a resident of Israel—was hon-
ored recently at a dinner on the
occasion of the establishment of a
building for biochemistry in the
name of his late father, Selig
Sudarsky.
The Selig Sudarsky Building for
Biochemistry, together with a gene-
tics and a physiology building, will
constitute the first stage of a com-
plex of buildings for the Institute
of Life Sciences.
Although within one administra-
tive framework, the different de-
partments of the institute pres-
ently are scattered in various
quarters of Jerusalem but they will
gradually become physically inte-
grated as the departments will
move to the university's Givat
Ram campus.

more than 12,000 Jews were helped
to get jobs through direct place-
ment, special training and re-
training services. He said an in-
creasingly important aspect of vo-
cational aid has been providing
intensive English language courses
and placement for professionals
who came in large numbers during
1969.
He reported that a workshop for
aged and handicapped newcomers
operated by NYANA employed 19
Jews last year, fewer than in 1968
because current immigrants are
in much lower age brackets than
in prior years. Old persons in the
work center are enabled to earn
Social Security benefits and to gain
a spirit of independence and dig-
nity. Some have been helped to
move into the regular labor mar-
ket. All told, he said, 485 persons
have been helped in the work cen-
ter since its establishment in 1955.

A special youth services pro-

Jewish newcomers had been
helped in this program. Of these,
600 were aided in 1969.
Every young newcomer is given
the opportunity to discuss his edu-

tals for evening attendance at city
colleges and, in some cases, at
private colleges. Students are
helped to get full or part-time
jobs during the school year and in
the summer, he added.
There was a symposium on die
problems of Jews in unfriendly
countries and the difficulties of
uprooting and resettlement, led by
Samuel J. Haber, executive vice-
chairman of the Joint Distribution
Committee. The participants were
four 21-year-old Jewish emigres
from the Soviet Union, Poland,
Czechoslovakia and Egypt. All of
the young newcomers expressed
enthusiasm about the opportunities
open to them in the United States
and the possibilities of living
openly and freely as Jews. One of
them, a girl from Poland, said
"I couldn't believe it when I saw
everybody getting days off for
Passover and talking about it as
though it was the most • natu , a1
thing in the world."
Every man is a damn fool for
at least five minutes every day;
wisdom consists in not exceeding
the limit.—Elbert Hubbard.
