The 60,000 square foot complex will be built around a 1,000-seat, amphitheater-type, sloped sanctuary in which no seat will be more than 85 feet from the ark. A shell- shaped bima will be natur- ally illuminated by a hidden skylight facing southeast. Six stained glass windows from the congregation's 30-year-old Palmer Park building will be transferred to the new temple sanctuary for its completion in the summer of 1980. Designed by the Bloomfield Hills firm of architects, engineers and planners, TMP Associ- ates, Inc., the temple sanctuary's massive oak doors will open onto a skylit atrium forecourt. The atrium will serve both as a gathering room and an overflow area, with room for 600 seats, for large attendance days such as High Holy Days. The planned temple com- plex will also have a social hall and adjoining kitchen off the atrium to the left. Pictured above is the artist's rendering of the new Temple Israel complex slated to open in 1980 in West Bloomfield. The new temple will house a 1,000-seat sanctuary and have parking for 330 cars. The social hall will seat 500 for dining and a greater number for assembly, sea- ted auditorium style in front of the hall's stage. To the right of the atrium, a large wing will house a 200-seat chapel, a youth room, library, two nurse- ries, 12 classrooms for reli- gious instruction and a series of administrative and clerical offices. The 22.5-acre site will be sculptured to enhance the naturally rolling ter- rain and existing pond. A circular drive on and off Walnut Lake Road will curve around to the back of the property and the tem- ple's canopied entryway and 330-car parking area. The complex will sit at a 45- degree angle to Walnut Lake Road, with its entranceway facing away from the road at the rear of the complex. The two-year effort to raise the $4.7 million in pledges was facilitated by several large donations, in- cluding a $250,000 bequest from the John R. Herman Foundation. Rose Herman was named honorary chairman of the building committee "for her generos- ity." The temple's sister- hood also pledged $220,000 to the building fund, many of whose other pledges were in the $10,000 to $150,000 range, according to Frank L. Simons, temple adminis- trator.

Dutch Ashkenazi Losing Members AMSTERDAM (JTA) — The Netherlands Ashkenazi Congregation is considering measures to re- vitalize its membership against a background of '— growing indifference and declining numbers. A report published at the recent annual meeting of the congregation's central commission indicated that while the nominal member- ship of 13,000, more than half of Holland's total Jewish population of 22,000 seems impressive, very few members are prepared to be personally active on behalf of the congregation and most show little interest in its activities. The membership is drop- ping gradually but the con- gregation and its Executive have increasing tasks, owing in part to expanded international contacts.
