"All in the Family," which pre-
miered in January, centers on
Archie Bunker, (played by Car-
roll O'Connor), a blue-collar work-
er who spews racial and religious
prejudices, complete with ethnic
epithets, and gets his comeuppance
at the end of each episode.
In one episode, Archie excori-
ated a Jewish woman for alleg-
edly ramming his car ("They're
all the same, them people!"),
then sought a Jewish lawyer to
represent him because "they're
smarter and shrewder."

to the ADL, considers the series

Group Organized
Havura, a new Jewish student
group at the University of Michi-
gan, has been called "the wave of
the future" by organizer Rabbi Joel
Poupko of the Bnai Brith Hillel
Foundation.
Formed in response to student
demand, its 25 members are in the
process of defining the organiza-
tion's goals and purpose.
Havura began meeting in Janu-
ary on a bi-weekly basis to hold
discussions on topics related to
Judaism, as well as Sabbath serv-
ices. A few of the subjects have
been Jewish identity, linguistics and
Soviet Jewry.
Tonight, Rabbi Poupko has in-
