"Mr. Speaker, I am pleased

Mr. Philip Slomovitz, editor
of the Detroit Jewish News,

who has been awarded the
first annual Smolar Award
for Excellence in American
Jewish Journalism. It has
been my pleasure to know
Phil Slomovitz for many
years and as such I can per-
sonally attest to the contri-
bution that this one individ
ual has made to American
and Jewish letters. It should
be noted that Phil was se-
lected to receive this award,
given in honor of Boris Smo-
lar, editor in chief emeritus
of the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency and a distinguished
journalist and author, from
among 75 other nominees.

Detroiters
Aid College
in Jerusalem

NEW YORK — Leonard J.
Goldstein, dean of adminis-
tration of American College
in Jerusalem who directs the
college office in New York,
this week announced expan-
sion of the music department
in the area of creative arts.
Credit for major contribu-
tions in this field was given
by Goldstein to Marguerite
Kozenn-Chajes, former De-
troiter who now has .a music
professorship in Germany.
According to Goldstein,
the interest aroused in the
Jerusalem college among
members of Detroit Music
Study Club has brought
much-needed support for the
music project. Goldstein said
in his report:
"The dream of Dr. Mar-
guerite Kozenn-Chajes of
creating a department of
music at the American Col-
lege in Jerusalem seems
slowly to be coming to
fruition. Walking down
Sderot Hameiri, where the
new Goldfarb campus is lo-
cated, the melodious tones of
Laurel Griefer practicing
her voice lessons sweeten
the serene surroundings.
Laurel, a Rockland Commu-
nity College sophomore, who
has studied voice for 10
years in leading New York
schools, is now continuing
her training in a program set
up by the American College
in Jerusalem, on the new
Yamaha piano, generously
donated by Music Study Club
of Metropolitan Detroit."
Dean Goldstein, who heads
the American office of the
college at 888 Seventh Ave-
nue in New York. said: "One
of the main thrusts of our
college will be in the field
of creative arts. We are,
therefore, most appreciative
of the efforts of Dr. Chajes
and the Detroit committee
for assisting us in initiating
our music program."
