This summer will mark the beginning of the 37th year of con-
tinuous operation for Camp Tamakwa in Algonquin Provincial Park,
Ontario. Boys and girls, age 7-15, are accommodated for four- and

ing backgrounds, including a tennis pro for the first time, provide
instruction in all sports. The dramatics program will be directed by a
professional actress, and creative arts include painting, ceramics and

HAPPENINGS
BY MARK WEISS
Age 11, Grade 6
Hol Ilamoed Pesah witnessed
an unusual assembly. Nearly 100
alumni of Beth Yehudah who
study in various yeshivot through-
out the country, as well as those
now living in other areas, gath-
ered for an evening of Torah dis-
cussion and song. Prominent at
the gathering were our own Beth
Medrash boys.
Even some of our students who
study in Israel managed to drop
in. Such students include Rabbi
Chaim Silverstein, Chaim Kuper-
•asser, David Carmen, Avrumi
and Menachim Mendel Abrams
and Hershel Cohen.
The speakers at the alumni af-
fair were Rabbi Shimon Jaffe,
Rabbi Sholom Ziskina, both from
Lakewood, N.J., and Chaim Ku-
perwasser of the Mirrer Yeshiva
in Jerusalem.
The boys were also addressed
by Rabbi Leib Bakst, rosh yeshiva
of Yeshivath Beth Yehudah; Rabbi
David M. Lieberman, dean of the
yeshiva; Rabbi Weil from Telshe
Chicago; and Rabbi Leizer Levin
of Detroit. The affair was chaired
by Rabbi A. A. Freedman, assist-
ant principal of Yeshivath Beth
Yehudah.
Bar Mitzvas were celebrated re-
cently by Stanley Roth of Beth
Yehuda and Yehudah Goldstein of
Mesifta Torah Vodaath in New
York.
The Beth Yehudah baseball sea-
son opened with the Barracudas
winning a close decision from the
Sharks. The final score was 8-7,.
with home runs by Jared Cohen
and SiIlford Singal.

7th Grade
The tone of our school was a
solemn one as we observed Yom
Hashoa — Holocaust Day, in re-
membrance of the 6.000,000 Jews
who perished during the Holocaust.
On Thursday, we congregated in
the auditorium to hear the mes-
sages of our headmaster, Rabbi
Joshua E. Kronenberg and our
guests.
Rev. Peter D. Thomsen of St.
Peter's Danish Evangelical Luth-
eran Church reminded us of the
kindnesses shown to Jews by the
Danish people and the- king of
Denmark. Dr. Robert M. Frehse,
consultant, Detroit Council, Round
Table of Christians and Jews, re-
assured us of the many sym-
pathetic Christians who aided us
during the Holocaust, and con-
tinue their support of Israel today.
Our guest speaker, Fred Ferber,
gave us a moving first-hand ac-
count of the terrible anguish of
the Holocaust. His message should
have been heard by the ones who
don't qute understand why we
Jews feel so strongly about pro-
tecting the rights of all people.
Dr. John Mames, who helped
coordinate the event, gave a
spirited talk about the courage
of the resistance fighters and
dispelled any notions that all the
Jews who perished were led like
sheep to the slaughter.
Mrs. Sadie Braver played "Ale
Ale" on the violin, accompanied
by Mrs. Goldie Eskin on the piano.
and the students sang several ap-
propriate songs in Hebrew and
Yiddish. Several Hillel students,
Robert Mattler, Martin Pasternak,
Stewart Wayne, Richard Spatter.
David Schostak, Paula Levy,
Richard Margolin. Abby Scholnick,
Reva Soberman, Karen Freedland,
Sandra Adelsberg, Elissa
Andrea Schnipper and Mark Mer-
kow presented dramatic readings.
Linda Brenners. winner of the
Bnai Moshe contest on the Holo-
caust, read us her prize-winning
essay, "The Unfinished Tragedy."
The program ended on the hope-
ful notes of the Hebrew' song
"Mahar." which means tomorrow
will be full of all the good things
we don't have today.
