77 28—Friday, April 16, 1971 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS State Mental Hospital Patients Join Fellow Jews in Passover Observance By CHARLOTTE DUBIN Rosie has been a patient at the state mental hospital at Ypsilanti for the past 30 years. For a brief moment, at the annual seder luncheon held Tuesday by the Cooperative Council, she was on the. concert stage, her skill as a pianist winning the applause of an admiring audience. Others among the 175 guests at the Yeshivath Beth, Yehudah per- formed — Donald, filled with the spirit of the Passover holiday, dancing a hand-clapping number; Virginia, singing "Oif'n Pripi- shok"; and Israel, the hazan, chanting a liturgy of his own in- vention. The-re can't have been a dry eye in the place — certainly not among the ladies of Cooperative Council, who have been sponsor- ing this event off the hospital premises for the past 14 years. Chairman is Mrs. Joseph. Viedrah. Participants were brought in by bus from Wayne County General, Northville, Plymouth, Lapeer and Ypsilanti hospitals. Additionally, there were some 25 former pa- tients who are now in family care and nursing care homes and others being assisted by Operation Friendship, the National Council of Jewish Women's lounge pEo- GUITAR LESSONS MARK WERNER 353-8646 EN EN um Es re a I I I I I I I I I GOING TO THE ORIENT ON A FREIGHTER far 3 months Jon., Feb. & March.

Bnai David, who has been master of ceremonies for the luncheon for the past several years, brought along the cantor of his synagogue, Hyman Adler, to add to the spirit of the occa- sion. Cantor Adler, who matches Sosin in both size and heart, sang many traditional melodies, assisted by band leader Hal Gor- don at the piano. All three per- form gratis for every Hanuka and Passover celebration held for patients by the council. Sosin offered plenty of good- natured ribbing—and a little Yid- dish—that was enthusiastically wel- comed. It was more of a stage show than a seder, but no one was quibbling—least of all the hospital chaplain who .coordinates the visit, Rabbi Solomon Gruskin, whose personal adherence to Orthodoxy is undisputed. Virtually father to all of the patients he serves, Rabbi Gruskin fully recognizes that among his "children," the most important aspect to this . day is a full kosher meal off the hospital premises. And it is no less important to those in foster care situations who are far removed from the Jewish com- - munity. Rabbi Gruskin arranged for these people, scattered through- out the city, to be picked up for the affair. As each guest left, he received a parcel of Passover foods—matzo, salami, fruit, candy and cookies. There are many state hospital patients who keep kosher for Passover, and the chaplain pro- vides them with the matzo and other necessary foods, assisted by the Women's Bicur Cholem. Other Cooperative Council af- filiate groups who funded the seder luncheon are Alpha Omega Dental Fraternity Detroit Women, Aesculapian Society Ladies' Auxi- liary, Children Unlimited, David Horodoker Women's Organization, Hebrew Ladies' Aid Society, Home Relief Society, Infants' Service Group, Jewish War Veterans' Ladies Auxiliary, Primrose Bene- volent Club, Rochel Laya Stepin Aid Society, Sheruth League, United Order of True Sisters and Zedaka Club.

Mandel, who is seeking financial support for the alliance, added that the Labor Zionist youth movements Habonim, Dror and Hashomer Hat- zair have affiliated with the alli- ance which was formed to combat anti-Israel propaganda among left- ists and as an expression of re- surgence of Jewish identity among students. The ideology that has devel- oped out of this effort, said Man- del, is an understanding of Amer- ican Jews and a commitment to aliya and socialism in Israel. RZA groups put out newspapers, hold teach-ins and discussions and sponsor other activities meant to insure "that Israel is given a fair hearing." For information about the group, write Mandel at Dascomb Hall, Oberlin, 0. 44074. The national office is at 3909 Burnside, Los Angeles 90008. Jay Hurvitz is ex- ecutive director.

Wednesday Shaarit Haplaytah — Survivors of the Holocaust — will hold its annual Memorial Academy, dedi- cated to the memory of the Six Million, 8 p.m. Wednesday at Cong. Bnai David. Leon Halpern, president, pointed out that the 27th of Nisan was designated as a Yizkor day by the State of Israel, and the organi- zation will adhere to this date as closely as possible. "As we approach this annual solemn observance of Shoa, our hearts are filled with painful grief and chilling recollections," said Dr. John J. Mames, chairman of the Remembrance Project. "We are still haunted by the agonizing question: How could the world allow the calculated annihil- ation of innocent people and ruth- less destruction of a whole spiri- tual and intellectual life? The Six Million Martyrs were silenced for- ever; they cannot stand up and cry out: Why? Their accusa- tions, their sufferings cannot be heard. Ours is the duty to speak for them. And ours is the obligation not to allow the passing time to becloud this unspeakable, night- marish period." Rabbi Herbert S. Eskin will deliver the • memorial address, Cantor Hyman Adler will chant memorial prayers; and a trio composed of Gloria Kleinman, Eric Rosenow and Charles Weiner, will present musical selections. A proclamation from Governor Milliken and messages from mayors, civic and spiritual lead- ers are being issued. Hubert J. Sidlow, president-elect, will extend greetings in behalf of the Jewish Who succeisfully complete the course will be granted. 10 credits Ornmunity. Council. Mrs. Ruth by.
