sents Catholic-Jewish-
Protestant cooperation
in NCCJ's Round Table
program to build inter-
group understanding
and to erase religious and
racial bigotry and dis-
crimination.
A wide-range of Round
Table activities to promote
communication and bring
people together includes a
monthly interreligious
dialogue of religious leaders
dealing with both commu-
nity and religious issues; a
city-suburban youth coun-
cil; city and statewide
police-community relations
councils; a division of
women's concerns; an "Af-
ter Breakfast Dialogue" on
Equal Employment Oppor-
tunities; a parent-teacher-
youth conference on "Rear-
ing Children of Good Will";
and a variety of educational
projects developing from
these continuing communi-
cation programs.

NEW YORK (JTA) — A
16-year-old Chinese-
American student at the
High School of Art and De-
sign, Steven Chang, sub-
mitted the design that was
selected for this year's
Jewish Heritage Week
poster.
He portrayed a Star of
David through which black
and white hands are
clasped, surrounded by an
olive branch.
Jewish Heritage Week
will be celebrated April

Historic Footnote

Editor, The Jewish News:
The Jewish News of April
13 reported that Mrs. Val-
erie Guttsman of Slovakia,
a victim of Hitler "will be
only the second Jewish Lord
Mayor in the 139-year his-
tory of Norwich, England, a
predominantly Jewish
community."
However, "The Jewish
Encyclopedia" describes
Norwich as "the earliest
English town mentioned as
being inhabited by Jews.
The so-called martyrdom of
William of Norwich — the
first case of blood accusation
in Europe — occurred there
in 1144 . . . During the mas-
sacres of 1190 all the Nor-
wich Jews who were found
in their homes were slain."
Moreover, "in 1234 13
Jews were accused of hav-
ing forcibly circumcised the
five-year-old son of a Chris-
tian physician (possibly a
convert). They paid a fine
for respite of judgment; but
four years later four of them
were hanged at Norwich
after having been dragged
to the gallows at the tails of
horses."

Editor, The Jewish News:
The "spread" on the
Menorah - Society in Ann
Arbor (March 9, Page 8)
brought a deluge of recall.
My tenure as president in
1922 or 1923 was omitted.
No great calamity per se,
but I did arrange a debate
between our Menorah and
some boys from Ohio State
U. . . . The subject: "Is a
political Zionist State feasi-
ble?"
My precious friend Harry
Hartman, law student,
came from the opposite type
home. We talked about the
subject at Chubb's, our
favorite eating place.
"Whir not a debate,"
Harry suggested. I went to
work on it. I approached
Rabbi A.M. Hershman and
he offered to have Cong.
Shaarey Zedek award a
trophy to the winning side.
Rabbi Hershman brought
the trophy personally to
Ann Arbor and acted as one
of the judges. The other two
were Prof. Blanshard of phi-
losophy and Samuel Mum-
ford, Detroit Board of Edu-
cation smember and trea-
surer of Detroit Edison.

JERUSALEM — The
offices of the Hebrew Uni-
versity Administration
have moved to the Sherman
Administration Building on
the university's Mount
Scopus campus. Included in
the move are the president's
and rector's offices as well
as the academic secretariat,
the personnel department
and the Department of In-
formation and Public Af-
fairs.

Michigan won easily . . . on
the affirmative side.
