"Not backward to belligerency
but forward to peace," from Abba
Eban's memorable June 6, 1967,

Mr. Metzenbaum

By RABBI SAMUEL SILVER

(A Seven Arts Feature)

Consider Howard Metzenbaum,
the man who will face Congress-
man Robert Taft in the race for
senator from Ohio.
Taft, of course, belongs to a
prestigious mishpah a. So does
Metzenbaum, whose family is
well-known in Cleveland for its in-
volvement in communal and Jew-
ish matters.
An able labor lawyer, Metzen-
baum was the majority leader of
the Ohio State Senate at 28. He
then retired from politics and went
into law and business, at which
he was singularly successful. He
was one of the owners of Avis,
and ever since he has felt that the
second person on the totem pole
must work harder than ever.
Taft may yet learn the truth ci):
this modern adage.
What is remarkable about Metz-
enbaum, in addition to his brit"
liance and his political skill (he
was the campaign manager of the
man whom he is hoping to suc-
ceed, Senator Stephen Young) is
his liberalism. Though ,affluent,
his heart is with the disadvantaged.
Metzenbaum is a leader in the
American Jewish Congress and in
the social action commission of
the Reform congregational body,
the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations.
Some reporters say that in the
contest with Taft, Metzenbaum not
only is up against the nation-wide
reputation of his opponent but is
handicapped by his Jewishness.
It may be that this handicap will
be overcome, as more and more
people are becoming aware of the
fact that Metzenbaum's views on
better race relations, a cold war
detente, U.S. aid for the Mid
East, etc., are what will save this
nation.
And there are those who will
feel that a Jew who is devoted to
his faith will be all the more de-
voted to his nation. In any event,
the Ohio race should be most
fascinating to watch.
Followers of the candidate have
already adopted a slogan: "Let's
go, Metz!"

Enchanting Work
on 'Old English'

A 90-page glossary in a 300-page
book is an indication of the extent
of guidance offered to students of
an enchanting subject.
Those who desire to master Old
English will find just the textbook
they seek In "Old English: Gram-
mar and Reader" by Prof. Robert
E. Diamond, published by Wayne
State University Press.
Here is a fascinating work that
not only offers a course of study
in Old English but also, as a read-
er, provides good reading filled
with parables, maxims, fables.
The author is professor of Eng-
lish at the University of Nevada.
He formerly taught at Wayne
State University.

address before the United Nations,
appears with the United Nations
structure on the reverse of the
medal, with Gilroy Roberts' sculp-
ture of Eban on the obverse.
The gold-layered issue is being
struck by the Franklin Mint, using
its new process in which a layer
of 24-carat gold covers a sterling
silver blank. The limited edition
is restricted to 3,207, the number
of members of the Judaic Heritage
Society.
The Judaic Heritage Society is
in the second year of a five-year,
120-medal project, the Medallic
History of the Jewish People.
The Abba Eban Peace Medal,
designed by Oscar Harris, is 39
millimeters in diameter, slightly
larger than a silver dollar. Price
of the gold-layered sterling proof
is $25, which includes a clear
Lucite case with metal name plate
and black base for display.
The medal is the only Roberts'
medal struck by the Franklin Mint
to bear the full signature, "Gilroy
Roberts." His other medals bear
only the initials, "G.R." (The Ken-
nedy portrait on the U.S. half-
dollar, struck by the U.S. Mint,
also bears only Roberts' initials.)
The unusual signature on the Eban
medal was suggested by JHS Pres-
ident Robert Weber who conceived
the idea and the motifs of the
medal for the Journal of Israel
Numismatics in 1967.

GI Has Last Word

During the Allied occupation of
Vienna, a streetcar was passing
through the American Zone of the
city. The conductor, noticing a GI
among the passengers, decided to
provide a little entertainment for
the Austrians on board. Every
time the car passed an American
installation, he would call out its
name with an atrocious pseudo-
American accent and then give its
former Austrian title. "Silver Dol-
lar Club, formerly Cafe Goethe,"
"Yankee Sports Center, formerly
the Messepalast," "Yank Cinema
formerly Kolloseum Lichtspiel-
haus" and so on.
The GI paid no attention to the
commentary or to the broad grins
of his fellow passengers, but con-
tinued to read his Stars and
Stripes. Just before reaching his
stop, however, he stood up, turned
to the occupants and in very pas,
able German said politely, "Auf
Wiedersehen, formerly Heil Hit-
ler!"—The Reader's Digest

All El Al Flights Resumed After Strike

TEL AVIV (JTA)—E1 AI, Israel's
national airline, resumed normal
flight schedules Tuesday as ground
employes who went on strike last
Thursday returned to their jobs.
Schedules were disrupted, and a
number of flights were canceled
after 450 maintenance and work-
shop -technicians walked out in a

26 — Friday, September 25, 1970

dispute with El Al management.
The maintenance crews returned
to work Sunday under pressure
from ,Histadrut, Israel's trade
union federation, but the others
held out until Monday.
All have now agreed to continue
negotiations for a new contract
without a strike threat.

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

2 Youths Held at Lydda Arab Children Enjoy
on Hijack Plot Suspicion a Seaside Vacation

JERUSALEM (JTA) — Police
disclosed the arrest of two Jewish
youths on suspicion of planning to
hijack an airliner at Lydda Air-
port. They identified the men
taken into custody as Jerry Kor-
ono, 25, and Bronislaw Gora, 23,
both of whom immigrated from
Poland five years ago.
According to police, the pair in-
tended to force an airliner to fly
over several European capitals
where they would drop leaflets de
nouncing the Israel government for
contemplating the withdrawal of
Israeli forces from Arab terri-
tories occupied in the Six-Day
War.
Police said they found a Karl
Gustav submachine gun and two
loaded magazines in Korono's
home along with handwritten
copies of the leaflets the men in-
tended to print. There appeared to
be no connection between the al-
leged plot and the five hijackings
and attempted hiackings by Arab
terrorists on Aug. 30.

JERUSALEM—Twenty-two prom-
inent citizens of Judea and Samaria
came to the Israel seaside resort
of Herzliya Pituah recently for an
"open day" on the conclusion of a
summer camp for children from
their regions, run by the Israel
Ministry for Social Welfare. This
year's program provided a holiday
for some 4,500 Arab youngsters and
was directed by Salah Hajamir,
headmaster of a Bethlehem boys
school.
The group of Arab leaders was
welcomed by the director-general
of the summer camp program for
children from the areas, which
begun in 1968, has been growing
steadily each year with more and
more children participating. Many
of the children are from orphan-
ages, homes for neglected youth and
closed institutions for juvenile de-
linquents. He added that this year,
the Judea and Samaria children
were joined by Israel Arab chil-
dren from the Acre children's
home.

Hotel Rooms Available
in Israel for Holidays

TEL AVIV (JTA)—For the first
time in many years, hotel rooms
are available in Israel for the
High Holy Day season after some
hotels, which had been booked to
capacity, received a number of
cancellations.
There was speculation that the
cholera scare and the recent hi-
jacking of airliners by Arab guer-
rillas led to the cancellations.
However, officials added, there is
still a constant stream of tourists
arriving for the High Holy Day
season.

Juvenile Delinquency
on the Rise in Israel

TEL AVIV—The rate of juven-
ile delinquency in Israel remained
constant in the first six months of
1970, but it was at the highest level
in the country's history, it was
reported by Dr. Zecharya Dersh-
owitz, professor of education at
Bar-Dan University, who delivered
the annual Bessie Gotsfeld Memo-
rial Lecture of the Mizrachi Wom-
en's Organization of America.
Addressing a meeting in the
Beth Zeirot Mizrachi, Tel Aviv,
Dershowitz reported that each
year since 1948 has seen an in-
crease not only in the number of
crimes committed by children.
but also in the absolute percentage
of the population. A total of 21.000
cases of juvenile delinquency were
before the courts in 1969.
