Friday, May 25, 1919 41 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Cultural Gains Determine Israel's Strength, Dinitz Tells Hebrew U. Dinner Citing Berry Highest standards in education, adherence to the people's traditional cultural aims and aspirations are major in the task of over- , coming dangers and obsta- cles, Hebrew University Vice President Simha Dinitz, his country's former ambassador to the United c44- rtes, told a representative .ience of nearly 500, at uung. Shaarey Zedek, May 16. The occasion was the presentation of the Hebrew University's Scopus Award to Louis Berry. In the presentation to Be- rry, Dinitz paid honor to the Metropolitan Detroit leader "in appreciation for his many communal tasks and his untiring labors in Is- - rael'§ behalf." The numerous causes to which Berry has made not-- able contributions were enumerated by Daniel Hon- igman, dinner chairman, who expressed the commu- nity's gratitude for all the honoree had done to ad- vance the efforts of many movements. In an expression of appreciation for the hon- ors accorded him, Berry gave emphasis to a background of identifi- cation which, he said, was major in the aim of a lifetime of sharing in the most serious duties one must meet in devotion to his people and the com- munity.

An impressive factor in the tributes was the "Per- sonal Reflection," a screen portrayal of the life of Louis Berry, narrated by W.B. Doner, co-chairman of the dinner committee, con- tained scores of- pictorial ac- counts of Berry's life and social-communal services. The dinner was an occa- sion for reminiscing by two eminent world Jewish lead- ers. Max M. Fisher, who in- troduced Dinitz, recalled the tense years during the services of the .:sraeli as envoy to this country, when he had to battle for Israel's rights and plead for Ameri- can aid. Fisher said that Dinitz was courageous and able in his tasks. Dinitz responded by recalling that during those trying years after the Yom Kippur War the American Jewish com- munity earned Israel's gratitude for the assis- tance given, and he said it was under Fisher's lead- ership that the coopera- tion was attained. Giving attention to realities was urged by Dinitz in his analyses of the results of the peace agree- ments between Israel and Egypt. He foresaw difficul- ties, nevertheless recog- nized the immensity of the achievements. Dinitz pointed out that Is- rael's triumphs in the battles for survival have been the results of inde- structibility, of strength which plays a part also even in the peace negotiations. He described Israel's strength to resist threats of destruction in the spiritual and cultural values. Refer- ring to the Arab call for a million Arabs to march on Jerusalem, he said that the redemption and rebuilding of Scopus as the Hebrew University site is a measure ANKEksi 44e *C "The Best Disco In Town" Disc Jockey Parties, Dances & Special Occasions 546-5797 - 544-0454 LIGHTS - SOUND - EXPERIENCE FENBY-STEIN TALENT AGENCY Presents • • • • • SHELBY LEE JERRY FENBY GEORGE BROOKS • ERIC FREUDIGMAN • INNOVATIONS TOM PLOEGER • TOUCH OF CLASS KROSSWINDS • SOUNDS OF JEEP SMITH LET OUR PROFESSIONALS 855-1400 CONDUCT YOUR PARTY Featuring PRO DISCO Simha Dinitz, center, vice president of the He- brew University and former Israel Ambassador to the U.S., presents the university's Scopus Award to Louis Berry, left, honoree at the Detroit Friends of Hebrew University dinner last week at Cong.
