Emigres at. Phonogift
Thirty-five Russian immi-
grants, students in the Eng-
lish language program at
the Jewish Community Cen-
ter, got an inside look at
how the Allied Jewish Cam-
paign-Israel Emergency
Fund works last week when
they visited the Women's Di-
vision Phonogift headquar-
ters at the United Hebrew
Schools building in South-
field.
The immigrants, who
ranged from bearded young
men in their 20s to ker-
chief-wearing women in
their 60s, listened with inter-
est as Women's Division
Campaign Chairman Dulcie
Rosenfeld explained the
Phonogift effort.
Some six hundred Divi-
sion volunteers, working in
three-hour shifts, solicited
pledges of up to $100 from
some 8,000 Detroit area
women during Phonogift's
one-week campaign.
Alina Izrailevich, an im-
migrant who learned Eng-
lish in Leningrad, trans-
lated Mrs. Rosenfeld's re-

marks for the less fluent

tion, the Russians listened
while volunteers made sev-
eral calls.
In all, more than 50 Rus-
sian Jews are enrolled in
English classes at the Jew-
ish Community Center.
They are bused there Mon-
day through ThUrsday from
their homes in Oak Park
and Madison Heights, said
Barbara Woodell, one of
two salaried instructors in
the program.
Most of the teaching is
done by 70 volunteers, said
Melba Winer, director of
English language programs
at the Center. Each volun-
teer works at least one
half-day a week so that clas-
ses can be small.
