SAVANNAH (JTA)—The Savan-
nah Jewish Council • has started a
survey to determine why college
students—including Jewish college
students — are not returning after
graduation to live in Savannah.
Dr. Murray Arkin, president of
he Jewish Council said available
information indicated that in the
mid-1950s, 52 per cent of Jewish
college graduates returned to Sa-
vannah and that the figure drop-
ped to 36 per cent in the early
1960s and to about 20 per cent in
the late 1960s. Savannah was esti-
mated to have a Jewish population
of about 3,500.
