LISTENING
POST

ACCORDING TO Ray
Abrams of Cushion 'n Cue,
about 1 /3 of the U.S. popula-
tion plays pool or billiards
. . . Ray says the old-time
stigma of pool has long since
gone and today's tourna-
ments pit super stars aginst
each other in games of acute
skill.
When Ray told one person
that pool playing has more
participants than soccer or
bowling, the other laughed
. . . especially at the bowling
... That is, until Ray said,
"How many people do you
know with bowling alleys in
- their home?" . . . The gent
slowly slanted his head and
furrowed his eyebrows as if
to say, "Hey, never thought
of that!"

Hits Definition

AMSTERDAM (JTA) —
Arie Pais, the Dutch Minis-
ter of Education, has writ-
ten to the publishers of the
widely used Dutch dictio-
nary, "Koenen Endepols,"
on the way it defines the
term Jew.

Pais, who is Jewish, wrote
that complaints have
reached him that the defini-
tion in the dictionary pre-
sents a negative image of
the Jew. He expressed hope
that a later edition of the
dictionary would provide a
more positive definition of
the term Jew.
