THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Southfield Arts Council Program
Gains Status at Symphony Concert

Southfield Arts Council, after a
year of introductory , activities,
gained community-wide status in
the Greater Detroit area with its
successful concert Feb. 4 at Ford
Auditorium.
Featuring the Detroit Symphony
Orchestra and Cantor Jacob Har-
kin, with Italo Babini, the orches-
tra's leading cellist as the addi-
tional soloist, the large audience
gave enthusiastic endorsement to
the efforts of the Southfield art
lovers to advance an extensive
program in the years ahead.
Cantor Barkin gave notable
renditions of "Sound an Alarm"
from Haadel's Judas Maccabeus,
Verdi's "Ingentlsco," Cilea's
"Lamento di Federico" and En-
gel's "Osso Boker."
Babini was superb as soloist with
the orchestra in the interpretation
of Tchaikowsky's "Variations." The

Honored by Army

LTC Emanuel M. Winter

missioned service in the U.S.
Army Reserve. LTC Ginxier, an

the 5032nd USAR School, Col.

was presented with the Meri-
torious Service Medal for :lex-
ceptional meritorious conduct in
the performance of outstanding
services." The citation reads, in
part: "His exceptional organiza-
tional and management acumen,
dedication, personal initiative
and intense loyalty reflect great
credit upon himself, the 5e32nd

USAR School and the Army Re-
serve program. His method of
performance has reflected the
epitome of professional compe-
tence and shall• serve as a goal
for officers who will subsequently
occupy his position after his re-
tirement."

orchestra's presentation of Beetho-
ven's Symphony No. 8 and espe-
cially Its powerful rendition of
Stravinsky's Suite from "The Fire-
bird" gave added significance to
the evening.
The objectives of the South-
field cultural projects were ex-
plained to the audience in brief
addresses by Mayor Norman
Feder and Dr. Mervin Lakin
president of the Southfield
Board of Education who also
bolds the presidency at the
Southfield Arts Council.
An interesting footnote to the
program explained the Jewish se-
lection Included in the numbers
sung by Cantor Barkin. It states:
"Osso Boker"--("Morning cons-
eth and night follows . - .") Sub-
titled "the parable of a wander-
ing preacher," this song is based
on folk material which Joel
Engel derived from his explora-
tions into Judeo-Hebralc musical
modes and motifs. It is an at-
tempt to recreate in art song
style, the sermon of a folk
preacher, seeking to elucidate
the enigmatic passage of Isaiah
21:12. The theme is man's free
will and the part it may ulti-
mately play in his redemption of
the future.
There was a social hour after the
performance, and Mr. and Mrs.
Norman Allan were the hosts.
Michael Aller was host to 50
senior adults at the concert.

Grosse Pointe Man
Crafts a Menora
With Understanding

Edward Groves, a Grosse Pointe
Park resident who works with
metal for a hobby, has turned his
skill to a new art—in the form of
a menora.
Groves, an employe of the Wayne
County Department of Health, Air
Pollution Control Division office on
Jefferson Ave., was introduced to
the menora by a co-worker, Mrs.
Stella Rives of Briar Dr., Oak
Park.
Mrs. Rives brought the menora
to the office as a holiday decora-
tion and Groves became enchant-
ed with its design and history.
He borrowed it to make a larger

duplicate in brass.

As he completed each section
of the menora, Groves showed it
to Mrs. Rives for her approval.
"The holders were carefully tooled
and shaped," she said, "and the
Star of David was breathtakingly
beautiful."
"The menora has no significant
meaning without the Star of Da-
vid," Groves explained.

On behalf of all associated with Akiva Hebrew Day
School, I wish to publicly express our profound regrets
that an uncleared and factually incorrect statement was
inserted in last week's advertisement copy relative to
Akiva's new Senior High School program.

The line — "The only secondary school for Detroit's
Jewish Youth" — is an injustice to the long-established
secondary school program offered by our sister institution,
the Beth Yehuda Schools in their Yeshiva High School for
Boys and Beth Jacob High School for Girls,

Detroit Jewry can be proud and grateful for the
excellent options in intensive and quality Jewish education
made available to it by Detroit's three Day Schools —
Yeshivah Beth Yehudah, Hillel Day School and ourselves.
The services rendered by each- to the Detroit Jewish com-
munity mark distinctive contributions.

We, for our part, are proud of the spirit of cooper-
ation that exists among the three schools and of our joint
efforts through the Association of Hebrew Day Schools
of Metropolitan Detroit. The competitiveness that exists
is in the traditional spirit of kin* soaring to haldunab.

"competition among scholars increases wisdom," and
benefit of all children.
