IT WAS BILLY
JACOBS' 60th birthday,
and what better way to sur-
prise this very fine person
and superb athlete than to
have a party the way he
would want one . . . sur-
rounded by close friends and
family . . . and at a place he
would be going to for a game
of tennis with wife Shirley.
The friends were there .. .
family too . . . and even a
tennis match . . . but with
the club pro instead of Shir-
ley . . . She was in on the
"plot" and her job was to get
him there.
Party given by Shirley,
son Bob, daughter Monni
and son-in-law Joel Must,
was at Farmington Racquet
Club.
People who expected
Buddy's pizzas were a bit
disappointed ... but
Honey Tree restaurant
on Orchard Lake Rd.
more than made up for it
with a bevy, of tasty
home-made Greek dis-
hes.
All the guests were very
casual except Mike Must .. .
he was the only one with a
tie . . . Lighting and sound
system were by Pro-Disco
with Paul Bensman and
Gary Lichtman playing up a
record storm of oldies on the
disco beat . . . plus even
Happy Birthday A la disco
rhythm .. Mike Kaufman
from Stage Door Dance
Studio showed the folks
some coordinating steps.
Harry Milgrom was MC
for a brief cake-cutting
ceremony and joined Harold
Haas, Morrie Fenkell and
Joe Feder in a picture with
Billy . . . of guys from the old
Zenith Club of the Jewish
Center on Woodward many
years back.
It was also the birthday of
Billy's sister, Mildred
Friedman (Ralph) . . .
They're twins.
Floral settings were in
tennis ball cans ... A lot
of people came dressed to
play tennis but not many
did ... Lou Star was one
of those who couldn't re-
sist — he's been playing
three times a week more
than 30 years ... Morrie
Fenkell didn't have an
apple, but still eats them
from morning til night...
He's also on a peach kick
now ... Monni Must has
about $10,000 worth of
camera equipment but
snapped pictures with an
Instamatic ... She disco'd
with all the rest ... good
exercise for the little one
Monni and Joel are due
to have in September.
Can't forget the excellent
cheeses . . . Very delicious
. . . supplied by Mike Must
and sons Alan and Joel of
Detroit City Dairy.
Billy Jacobs is a lucky
person . . . He has a wonder-
ful wife in Shirley, terrific
children, good health, true
friends . . . and most of all,
the kind of personality that

Wilt Chamberlain re-
vealed his one big playing
weakness at the annual
Basketball Hall of Fame in-
duction dinner last month.
At the dinner Chamberlain
was installed as a member
and Eddie Gottlieb, "Mr.
Professional Basketball,"
was awarded the prestigi-
ous Gordon Bunn Award for
meritorious services to the
game over a half-century of
activity.
Chamberlain finally
broke down and confessed
as to why he turned out to be
such a poor foul shooter and
the story should be of inter-
est to Jewish readers who
have followed the big fel-
low's progress over the
Years.
- It developed that as a
youngster, Wilt, in his final
two years at Overbrook
High School in Philadel-
phia, during the summer
months, worked at
Kutsher's Country Club in
Monticello, N.Y., as a bel-
lhop. At that tender age
changed
never
has
throughout the years .. .
the kind that has always
made him one heck of a
swell guy!
