AF-
RECENT
TERGLOW by Children's
Leukemia Foundation of
Michigan, following its the-
after party premiere of
power-packed Rocky II, was
really something to see.
Imagine the concourse
and mall off Lot E at North-
land . Usually jammed
with customers . . . in a
strange-to-see set-up with
three bars . . . and tables ar-
ranged amidst the many
stores.
Kosher caterer Marvin
Siegel and his swell bevy of
hors d'oeuvres, almost
never got inside . . . He was
locked outside 15 minutes
until someone finally got a
security guard to let Marvin
in . . . He even had his won-
derful staff of waitresses .. .
like smiling, so efficient,
courteous Carmen Jan-
zewski.
Choreographer-teach-
er Julie Adler, in town
from California with
hubby Eddie Sparage,
put on an excellent show
in the mall with,a group
of fine young dancers
and singers.
One hundred percent of
the theater proceeds at
Northland Theater went to
Children's Leukemia Foun-
dation . . . It was in conjunc-
tion with Northland Cen-
ter's 25th anniversary .. .
and the Northland Mer-
chant's Association and
Dayton-Hudson Corp. un-
derwrote the entire theater
expenses . . . A wonderful
occasion for a wonderful
ause.

Tickets as usual are going
very fast for this crowded,
much fun affair . . . with
entertainment, dancing,
prizes and a refreshing boat
ride.
. It will be co-chaired this
year by Meyer Feinstein,

Greenspan.
Possibility looms that one

great . . . no gas to use . . . no
parking to pay . . . This

Stern Replaces
Rechtmann
as Likud MK

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
David Stern, 68, was sworn
in last week as a Likud MK
replacing Shmuel Re-
chtmann, who resigned as a
result of his conviction on
bribery charges.
Stern, a building con-
structor, is the brother of
Avraham (Yair) Stern, the
commander of Lehi, who
was killed by the British in
1941, allegedly while at-
tempting to escape from
British soldier's. I
