Using Solar Ener

Come see how Detroit Edison is using
the sun's energy to heat space and water in its
experimental Jubilee Solar Home.

Visit the Jubilee Solar Home
and see how Detroit Edison is
experimenting with the sun's
natural energy to help keep your
future bright.
Fortunately, Detroit Edison
customers have Plenty of electric
power available. Today, and many
years into the future. It's a
result of a lot of planning, devel-
opment and investment and the
fact that more than 84 percent
of Detroit Edison's power is gen-
erated from coal, our nation's
most abundant fuel. The balance
is generated by other fossil fuels.
Looking far ahead, Detroit
Edison is conducting research on
other energy sources that may
prove to be practical in our
geographic area. While it may be
some time before solar energy
developments make possible
economical applications for
people's homes, the Jubilee Solar
Home already will have begun to
determine if the sun's energy may
someday be a useful replacement
for the oil and natural gas now
used for heating so that these
fuels may be saved for other uses
where only they will do.
The Jubilee Solar Home looks
like a traditional house. But if you
walk around to the back you'll see
the solar collectors on the roof.
Heat from the sun is captured by
the collectors, stored in the
water, then distributed by air to
heat the home. Solar-heated
water also warms water for
bathing, laundering and
cleaning. Solar energy is expected
to fulfill 20 to 30 percent of the
space heating requirements and

80 to 90 percent of the water
heating requirements.
On days when the sun doesn't
shine or when more heat is
needed, an energy-efficient heat
pump moves the natural heat,
always present in the outdoor air,
inside the home. Electric
elements provide additional heat
as required. In warm weather, the
heat pump reverses automatically
for energy-efficient air
conditioning.
The Jubilee Solar Home is
exceptionally well insulated to
keep heat inside in winter and to
make air conditioning more
efficient in summer. All doors
and windows, and even the
fireplace, are designed to be
energy efficient.
When you visit the Jubilee
Solar Home, be sure to examine
some of the new ideas in electric
appliances and lighting selected
for energy efficiency,
convenience and safety. And
note the interior lighting and
outdoor security lighting system,
designed to use little electricity.
Detroit Edison's Jubilee
Solar Home was built by Fred
Greenspan Development
Corporation in cooperation with •
the Builders Association of
Southeastern Michigan.

Keeping plenty of power in your hands.

WSU Press Group Completes
a Successful Mission to Israel

Dr. Thomas Bonner,
president of Wayne State
University and Dr. Av-
raham Harman, president
of Hebrew University in
Jerusalem, saluted the be-
ginning of a cooperative
scholarly publishing
agreement between their
two schools, through the
Morris and Emma Schaver
Publication Fund. A Wayne
State University delegation
traveled to Israel for the
formal signing on April 22
at the Hebrew University
Faculty Club.
liVyne State University
Press was represented by
Richard Kinney, Norma
Goldman and Bernard.
Goldman, director; Har-
riette and Leonard Simons,
founder of the Press' board
of advisers; and Helen and
Kurt Keydel representing
the WSU Board of Gover-
nors. WSU President
Emeritus George Gullen
and Ruth Gullen, Edith and
Thomas Marwil and Be-
verly and Sam Levin acted
as delegates for the faculties
and Detroiters who support
the WSU Press.
The highlight of the dele-
gation's three-week tour,
including a visit to Egypt,
was a reception at the
Jerusalem home of Emma
Schaver where President
Harman and members of
the Hebrew University fa-
culty greeted the guests.
The delegation was also re-
ceived at the ninth
Jerusalem International
Book Fair held at Binyanei
Ha'ooma. WSU Press dis-
played more than 90 publi-
cations, many previously
sponsored by the Schaver
Fund.
President Harman
spoke at the Schaver re-
ception on the scholarly
benefits of the new
Wayne State
University-Hebrew Uni-
ver%ity publication
agreement which will see
studies in Jewish culture
emanating from the Insti-
tute of Contemporary
Jewry published by
Wayne.
George Gullen responded,
remarking upon the vitality
and vividness of the Israeli
scene and his experiences
on visiting the sites so
meaningful to both Chris-
tians and Jews. Keydel voi-
ced his hope that this new
venture would be but the
first in a series of ties be-
tween these two urban uni-
versities, that a program of
student and/or faculty ex-
change would be developed,
perhaps in the pattern of
WSU's programs in Munich
and Freiberg.
Mrs. Schaver, a bene-
factor to both universities,
was honored by each
speak er for her vision and
firm support of scholarly
stud and publication. At
the ( )reclusion of the cere-
mon :s, President Harman
pres ated Presidents Bon-
ner ; id Gullen with univer-
sity iedals.

theological excavations
along the Herodian walls of
the Temple Mount.
The Hebrew University
campus on Mt. Scopus
was visited and then the
WSU group toured
Jewish and Christian
sites north to the Galilee
and south to Masada.
As part of the Schaver
program, WSU Press had its
own book sales and display
at the mammoth Jerusalem
Book Fair. Although 1,250
publishers from around the
world were represented,
only two American univer-
sity presses had indepen-
dent booths: WSU and Yale.
Long lines of Israelis,
from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m.,
waited to buy admission
tickets to visit the book fair,
swelling the total atten-
dance to over 100,000.
Anticipating oppor-
tunities for book exchanges
with Egypt, Richard Kin-
ney, associate director of
WSU Press, and WSU Gov-
ernor Keydel began dis-
cussions in Cairo with Cairo
University officials on
possible publishing agree-
ments between their press
and WSU. While managing
the WSU book display in
Jerusalem, Kinney was
greeted by ex-Detroiters
and WSU graduates now
living in Israel.
Several of the Press's
Israeli authors stopped
by the booth to see their
books on display, and
potential authors offered
their manuscripts for
consideration. At the
close of the exhibition
WSU Press presented its
book display as a gift to
the library of Hebrew
University.
Another important ave-
nue of cooperation between
Wayne and Israeli scholars
was opened by Kinney's
negotiations with Hebrew
University's Magnes Press:
WSU would act as Ameri-
can publisher of significant
books in English with
Magnes Press as Israeli
publisher. The first book to
come out of WSU Press
under this arrangement
will be Hebrew University
geography professor
Yehoshua Ben-Arieh's
story of the discovery and
exploration of the Holy
Land in the 19th Century.
Israeli professor Yehuda
Bauer's in-depth study of
American Jewry's role in

helping save those caught
in the Holocaust is
scheduled for publication
next year by WSU and will
inaugurate the program of
publishing by Wayne under
the auspices of the Schaver
Fund.
Kinney also spoke with
Director Gideon Stern of the
Israeli National Academy of
Science and Humanities
concerning WSU Press act-
ing as American distributor
for academy publications.
Dekel Academic Press in
Tel Aviv has also ap-
proached WSU Press for a
similar arrangement.

Sculptor, Artist
Display Works
at BB Museum

WASHINGTON —
Two major exhibits, one by
Washington sculptor and
artist Phillip Ratner and
the other by Lithuanian ex-
patriate sculptor Jacob
Sheiniuk, Will go on display
Monday in the Bnai Brith
Klutznick Museum in
Washington, D.C.
The Ratner exhibition —
"Spiritual Sources: Phillip
Ratner's Visions of the
Bible" — is based on a gift of
10 bronzes donated to the
museum by Harold and Syl-
via Greenberg of Washing-
ton.
The collection of 48 pieces
includes bronzes from
Ratner's early career,
lithographs, tapestries and
stained glass.
The second exhibit is
entitled "Menner Froyen
un Kinderlach: Shtetl
Sculptures by Jacob
Sheiniuk."
Working in wood, meta.
and clay, Sheiniuk has rec-
reated the Lithuanian
ghetto of Michaeliczk, his
boyhood home.
The exhibits will remain
on display through Sept. 30.

Annexation Asked

JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
Some 15 Druze leaders from
the Golan Heights have
asked the Israeli govern-
ment to incorporate the
Golan into Israel.
The delegation, which vi-
sited Premier Menahem
Begin, said another group,
which published a notice
last month about their re-
luctance to associate with
Israel, was "a small minor-
ity incited by extremists."
