NY Museum Plans Israeli Exhibit

Israeli archeological exhibi-
tion.
Assurances were given by
Thomas P. F. Hoving, mu-
seum director, to David Riv-
lin, Israeli consul general
here. The exhibition original-
ly was intended as a com-
memoration of Israel's 25th
year but instead will be
mounted in 1975 in connection
with the 10th anniversary of
the Israel Museum in Jeru-
salem, where the artifacts
are housed, said Hoving.
Douglas Dillon, the muse-
urn's president, had written
letters to Mayor John Lind-
say, Israeli officials and
some museum trustees ex-
pressing fears of Arab ter-
rorism. However, he indi-
weekend he had dropped II's
doubts after meeting with
Rivlin.
Hoving met with Rivlin,
museum board members,
Jacob Stein, chairman of the
Conference of Presidents of
Major American Jewish Or-
ganizations and Mrs. Char-
lotte Jacobson, chairman of
the American section of the
World Zionist Organization.

NEW YORK—Despite fears
expressed that Arab terror-
ists might try to disrupt the
display, the Metropolitan Mu-
seum of Art intends to pro-

TEL AVIV—Two previous-
ly unknown Nazi death
camps have been uncovered
in East Germany by inves-
tigators for the Yad Vashem
memorial in Jerusalem.
Investigators who identi-
fied the camps as Gotha and
Gardelegen, said that little
was known about them ex-
cept that thousands of Jews
were killed in gas chambers
there and their bodies dis-
posed of in crematoria.
Chaim Posner, executive
board member of Yad Va-
shem, said the camps were
discovered through docu-
ments and phatogragn given
to him in January by Otis
Chandler, publisher of the
Los Angeles Times.
"We have never seen any-
thing like this before," said
Dr. Yosef Kermish, director
of the archives at Yad Va-
she m.
Posner said about 10 or
12 of the photographs taken
after the German surrender
in 1945 showed the late Gen.

HILLEL AT 50: The Hillel Foundations, formed by Bnai
Brith 50 years ago as a link between Jewish students and
their Jewish heritage, is now marking its Golden Jubilee.
With the first Foundation established at the University of
Illinois in 1913, Hillel now functions in about 270 American
schools of higher learning, serving the Jewish students
there with extensive programs of Jewish learning and
culture.
It is estimated that 80 per cent of all Jewish young men
and women of college age—between 17 and 21—are today
enrolled in colleges and universities. Many of them pursue
their studies away from home and are exposed to influ
ences which estrange them from Jewish life. A large pro-
portion of the approximately 350,000 Jewish students are
indifferent to things Jewish because they have received
no Jewish education and have no Jewish knowledge.
The Hillel Foundations—named after the gentle sage
of the First Century BCE who was one of the most out-
standing teachers and scholars in Jewish history—seek to
reach the campus community with Jewish knowledge through
a network of Hillel Houses, Hillel Lectureships, Counselor-
ships and Chairs of Judaic Studies.

PROGRESS REPORT: Fifty years ago, when Hillel was
established, it operated on a $25,000 budget allocated by
Bnai Brith. Today, Hillel functions on a budget of over
$4,000,000. A good part of this sum is still covered by Bnai
Brith, but Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds are now
also supporting the Hillel program.
Considering the Jewish campus community a reservoir
for manpower for future Jewish community leadership, the
organized Jewish communities are now taking a greater
interest in Hillel than ever before. On the other hand,
Hillel programs now seek more and more to prepare the
student for intelligent participation in the life of the adult
Jewish community. Projects are being developed to broaden
the student's understanding of Jewish life by introducing
him to the faith, the literature, the history and the life
and thought patterns of the Jewish people.
Several hundred classes and study groups are currently
being offered by Hillel in colleges and universities through-
out the United States. They range from Hebrew to Jewish
folklore, Talmud, contemporary philosophies of Jewish life,
Jewish ethics and studies of Jewish community problems.

AND YESTERDAY: The Jewish student today is
far from what the Jewish student was 50 years ago. In
those years—prior to the establishment of Hillel Founda-
tions—the Intercollegiate Menorah Association served the
students on the campuses with Jewish learning and culture.
The average Jewish student of 50 years ago was
•
brought up at home in a Jewish atmosphere. He lived with
his parents who were mostly immigrants with low income.
Most of the students in those years strived to become doc-
tors, dentists, lawyers and engineers. At the same time,
however, they also helped to augment the income of their
parents by selling newspapers in their free time, or being
delivery boys for the neighborhood butcher shops and gro-
cery stores. The appreciated the fact that their parents,
working hard and living in poverty, were nevertheless de-
termined to give them the best in education.
The average Jewish student of today—whether male
or female—comes from an upper-middle-class family and
does not want to live with the parents while studying, or
even to attend a university in the same city where the
parents reside. The Jewish students of today do not need
to augment the income of their parents. They write home
for money whenever they need it. They insist on being
dressed in the latest student style. Some of them drive
their own automobiles.
This affluence—coupled with the fact that many Ameri-
can-born parents neglected to give their children proper
Jewish education—contributes no little to the growing as-
similation and intermarriage among Jewish students on
the campus. The Hillel Foundations seek to check these
tendencies. Their religious, cultural and counseling activ-
ities on the campus is now more and more considered part
and parcel of the increased efforts on the part of the en-
tire American Jewish community to strengthen Jewish
identity among the college youth. The 50th anniversary
finds Hillel more acknowledged by the American Jewish
community than ever before. At the same time, Hillel faces
now more difficult tasks than ever before.

FREE SCHOOLING
Four thousand more of
Israel's teen-agers will get
free education in the 10th
grade of high school next
year, the Knesset economic
committee was told. Eliezer
Shmueli, deputy director
general of the education
ministry, said the 10th grad-
ers would come from locali-
ties where large numbers of
immigrants are being ab-
sorbed or where the economic
conditions are poor.
