The only prospects for the syna- gogue, located in a North Philadelphia black neigh- borhood, seemed to be con- version into a funeral parlor or possibly a black commu- nity church. But now. a new life has been assured for the building, which shares a common campus ground with The Dropsie University. In spite of its own finan- cial problems ' and hard- ships, Dr. Leon J. Per- elman. acting president of Dropsie University, announced that the famed synagogue has been pur- Builds Road to Stalactite Cave JNF JERUSALEM (JTA)— The Jewish National Fund is paving a 1.5 mile road to give the public access to a stalactite cave in the Judaean hills that was dis- covered by accident 10 years ago. It is also building a parking lot at the cave. The cave has a chamber 276 feet long by 180 feet wide and from 30-36 feet high. The walls are covered with thousands of multi-col- ored stalactites. Scientists Urge Recital of Prayer - JERUSALEM (JTA)—A group of 100 scientist have signed an advertisement published in Israeli news- papers urging everyone to recite the "Shma Yisrael" prayer twice a day as required by religious law. The scientists recom- mended regular recital of the prayer for spiritual uplift in these troubled times. Rabbi Menahem Kasher was the initiator of the ad and a similar one at this season last year which was signed by 40 scientists. Single Parent Cases Up: Agency REGO PARK, N.Y. (JTA)—More than one-third of the record-breaking total of 9,123 families coming to the Jewish Community Services of Long Island for help last year wer single parent families, according to Irving Reier, JCSLI president. Total Membership WASHINGTON (JTA)— Bnai Brith officials have reported a membership chairman's dream has come true in North Dakota: every eligible Jewish boy and girl in the state is a member of the Bnai Brith Youth Organization—"all 41 „of them." chased and will provide a new facility for the post- graduate university. Drop- sie is the only non- theological, nonsectarian institution of its kind in the United States completely dedicated to the study of Hebrew, Biblical and Middle East languages and cultures. "In spite of our own pressing needs. the univer- sity's Board of Governors felt a deep sense of commu- nity responsibility that this beautiful edifice, which was the home of the second old- est synagogue in the United States, be kept and main- tained within the confines of the Jewish community," said Dr. Perelman. "The history of Mikveh Israel has been closely connected with the history of the Jewish community of Philadelphia as well as its physical close- ness with Dropsie Univer- sity. The board felt so strongly about maintaining a proper character for the building that three of its members guaranteed the bank loan required to pur- chase the building." Mikveh Israel, the nation's oldest Sephardic congregation, was originally founded around 1740, when Pennsylvania was still a dependency of the King of England. It moved to the Broad and York St. site at the turn of the century. Dr. Cyrus Alder, the first presi- dent of Dropsie University who was also a president of Mikveh Israel, was chair- man of the building dedica- tion exercises on Sept. 14, 1909. A North Philadelphia landmark for many dec- ades, it is a one-story, fire- proof limestone building in neo-Roman style with Ionic columns to enrich the facade facing Broad St. It was included with the Drop- sie University buildings when the complex was entered several years ago in the government's National Register of Historic Places. Dr. Perelman. in announcing the purchase, said a special committee of the Board of Governors will evaluate the university's expanded facility. and fol- lowing much-needed reno- vations and accom- modations, will recommend future uses for the building by the university. The Mikveh Israel congre- gation left the Broad and York St. building last year to return to its original site at 4th and Cherry near the city's historical sites area. Dulzin Expresses Worry Over Argentina Jews' Assimilation RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA)—Leon Dulzin, treas- urer of the Jewish Agency, said here that "anti-Semi- tism in Argentina worries me less than growing assimilation." Dulzin, who had visited Argentina and Uruguay before coming here, said that one-third of all Jewish marriages in Argentina are mixed marriages and that the 20 percent of the chil- dren attending Jewish schools there receive a very poor education in Yiddish- keit. He added that 80 per- cent of the children receive no Jewish education at all. Dulzin, who is the Likud candidate for the chairman- ship of the Jewish Agency and World Zionist Organiza- tion Executives, said that he is willing to negotiate with the Labor Alignment the composition of the future Executives, but that he would not forego campaign- ing for the post of chairman. Dulzin appealed to the Brazilian government not to grant permission to the Palestine Liberation Organ- ization to open an office in Brazil because the PLO is an international terrorist gang. Meanwhile, in Buenos Aires, messages of greeting Jorge from President Rafael Videla and President Ephraim Katzir of Israel were read to 300 delegates attending the three-day Sil- ver Jubilee Convention of Argentine Jewish commu- nities. The deliberations focused on such topics as social assistance, Jewish education, cultural and wel- fare activites. Videla congratulated the Federation of Jewish Com- munities of Argentina on its 25th anniversary. Tay-Sachs Spot Gains Exposure NEW YORK From August, 1976 through July, 1977 the CBS, ABC and NBC networks contributed an approximate total of $469,850 worth of television air time to publicizing Tay- Sachs disease prevention. The 30-second public serv- ice announcement, pro- duced by the National Tay- Sachs and Allied Diseases Association, Inc., is designed to inform individ- uals of child-bearing age, particularly those of Jewish ancestry, of the urgency and necessity of testing and genetic counseling for Tay- Sachs disease. The com- mercial provided the lis- tener with information on where to obtain further information concerning such prevention services. The 30-second commercial was also distributed to and televised by the local sta- tions in the 25 largest TV markets across the United States.
