chairman. Berry, vice chairman
of the Detroit Israel Bond Com-
mittee, was the chairman of the
first Israel Bond dinner held in
Detroit 20 years ago, when then
Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion
was the guest of
honor.
A special fea-

Felix Rosen-

who for several
years served as
Israel Bond chair-

man of the Metropolitan Detroit

zweig is the Bnai Brith Women's
Council Israel Bond chairman.

An Economy Class ticket-
to Europe is $536.
A Lufthansa
Excursion ticket is $382.

And that's not the only way
we save you money.

You can fly round trip to Frankfurt from New York
at an Economy fare of $536. But if you make it a 17
to 28-day excursion, your round-trip fare is only
• $382. Make it a 29 to 45-day excursion and your
round-trip Lufthansa fare drops to $312.
And that isn't the only way Lufthansa can save
you money on a European holiday.
Look at what as little as $359 buys you: a round-
trip flight aboard Lufthansa, an Avis car with un-
limited free mileage, and all your overnight accom-
modations for every night of your two-week stay.
This bargain is Lufthansa's famous Europacar Fly &
Drive tours—and you have 37 different European
itineraries to choose from.
Lufthansa gives you even more—your choice
of departure date, the most non-stop or direct flights
to Germany from New York, Philadelphia, Boston,
Chicago, Los Angeles, and Montreal. And direct
Lufthansa connections from Frankfurt to Tel Aviv. If
you want Kosher meals served to you aboard
Lufthansa flights, you simply request them when you
make your reservation.
See your own travel agent. He's the expert and
he'll give you even more reasons why more business
and vacation travelers prefer Lufthansa.
