Song of the Six Million

BY DAVID M. MILLER
Derived from "The Song of the Partisans"
in Yiddish by Hirsch Glick
Never say that you have walked the final way;
Though skies of lead will still conceal the blue of day;
Our longed-for hour, our hope is drawing near;
The drum-beat of our march will shout that we are here!
We are the ones who have survived the brutal blow;
And we are here despite our pain, despite our woe;
For though our blood
has drenched the sa4dened earth,
Our new-born courage rises full in our rebirth.
Eternal hope will bring a future without fear;
rutal foe will vanish with our yesteryear;
hough the night delay the coming of our dawn,
et shall we redeem our freedom from its ,pawn.
Our song is written with our blood. It shall endure!
We are not crushed. We rise to wipe away the slur.
Our martyr flesh has pierced the scarring wall of flame.
Our spirit stands in pride. On us no brand of shame!
Then never say that you have walked the final way;
Though skies of lead will still conceal the blue of day,
Our longed-for day, our hope is drawing near;
The- drum-beat of our march will shout that we are here!

Southfield Miss Named Queen THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
of Michigan White Cane Week Sisterhood Volunteers Cheer

A pretty blonde high school
student who believes "blind
persons are the least preju-
diced people in the whole
world because they have
never seen color" is the 1974
Queen of the Michigan Lions
White Cane Week, April 28-
May 4.
She is 5-foot Denise Bra-
yell, 18, of New Jersey Ave.,
Southfield, who is an honor
roll senior at the Michigan
State School for the Blind in
Lansing. She was chosen by
her principal to symbolize
the annual statewide drive by
the Lions to aid the handi-
caped.
This spring, Denise will be
graduated from the Lansing
school, where she has ma-
jored in music. She plays
piano and organ, often writ-
ing her own music. She also
writes poetry.
"In our world", said De-
nise, 'everyone is the same.

shav and an additional six
weeks of work in a work/job

Nursing Home Residents on Pesah

The Jewish Family and
Children's Service sisterhood
nursing home volunteer pro-
ject assisted more than 300
Jewish residents in 15 area
nursing homes in celebrating
Passover, said Fayga Dom-
bey, coordinator of the pro-
gram.
In . many homes abbreviated
sedarim were held, while in
others the women visited
with residents individually,
she said, adding that the
over 100 volunteers are old
friends by now to most of
the residents. This is the
fifth Passover being cele-
brated since the inception of
the program.
Mrs. Dombey said it is
particularly the lonely who
have no one who comes 'to
visit, that the volunteers seek
out. They go to the rooms of
the bedridden who are not
able to join the festivities.
Many of the teams visit their
"friends" year around, not
just at special times.
Sisterhoods participating in
the project are: Adat Sha-
lom, Beth Achim, Beth El,
Beth Abraham-Hillel, Beth
Moses, Beth Shalom, Beth
Jacob of Pontiac, Bnai David,
Bnai Moshe, Shaarey Zedek,
Temple Israel, Temple
Emanu-El, Young Israel of
Oak-Woods and Bnai Brith
Couplets. Rabbi Joshua
Sperka of the Council of Or-
thodox Rabbis is chaplain to
the nursing homes.
Cooperating nursing homes
are: Arnold Home, Bedford
Villa, Bloomfield Hills, David
Nursing Home, Edgewater
Convalescent Center, Farm-
