Local Universities Join Rush
for Funds From Arab Nations
Arab oil wealth is begin-
ning to entice U.S. universi-
ties, especially those who
have lost funding from tradi-
ional sources due to cutbacks
in special program funding.
Locally, the University of
Michigan and the University
of Detroit have begun seek-
ing financial aid from the
Arab countries by sending
emissaries abroad.
U-M, which has 450 alum-
ni in Arab countries, sent an
emissary to Saudi Arabia and
Kuwait within the last year
on an "exploratory visit" in
search of funds for its Cen-
ter for Near Eastern and
African Studies.
The University of Detroit,
meanwhile, reports that an
engineering professor, Dr.
Khalil Taraman, en route to
Egypt for a technical confer.
ence, will "do a little scout-
ing on the side" for grants.
Dr. Taraman hopes to make
a follow-up trip to the Near
East.
Nationwide, two $1 million
grants from Iran have gone
to the University of Southern
California and George Wash-
ington University. U-M is one
of 10 U. S. universities which
received $1 million each from
the Japanese government to
set up Japanese study pro-
grams.

The reading of the Torah at
Bar Mitzva is a symbol of a
boy's attaining maturity.
Among observant Jews in
Eastern Europe, the Encyclo-
paedia Judaica states, the boy
was usually called to the
Torah on the Monday or the
Thursday following his birth-
day.
In Western Europe, the oc-
casion took on a more cere-
monial importance, and it
was customary for the Bar
Mitzva boy to be called up
to the Torah to read the
Maftir portions and the Haf-
tara on the first Sabbath
after his birthday when morn-
ing service assumes a more
festive atmosphere.
After the service, a restive
kidush is often held, with a
banquet on the same or the
following day.
Reform congregations have
instituted a confirmation
ceremony. This originated in
the 19th Century German Re-
form movement as a subs

tute for Bar Mitzva. The
ceremony was held at a later
age — 16 or 17 — on the
grounds that before that age
a young person cannot really
understand the implications
of the rituals.
In modern times, especial-
ly in the U.S., confirmation
has been adopted as a cere-
mony in addition to Bar
Mitzva which is celebrated in
a more traditional manner.
The main intention of con-
firmation was to prolong the
period of a child's Jewish
education, the Encyclopaedia
Judaica states. The ceremony
is usually held on or about
Shavuot. The confirmands re-
cite various sections from.
Scriptures and publicly de-
clare their d e v o t i on to

become customary not as a
religious ceremony but more
as a birthday celebration and
family occasion.
