Yeshiva U. Assures Supporters
Following Mortgage Problems

NEW YORK (JTA) — Dr.
Norman Lamm, president
of Yeshiva University,
commenting on a press re-
port last week that a major
New York City bank, the
Bowery Savings Bank, is
seeking to foreclose its por-
tion of the university's $40
million mortgage, said that
"there is no way that
Yeshiva University will
fold."

The most exciting jewelry
in Detroit is now 30% off.
For one week only.

A spokesman for the uni-
versity had told the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency, before
Lamm's statement was pub-
licized, that the university
had been involved for sev-
eral months in efforts to
reorganize the mortgage.
The spokesman said the
mortgage had been under-
written by a consortium of
commercial and savings
banks in the 1970s, adding
that the commercial banks
were "relatively respon-
sive" to those debt reorgan-
ization efforts while the sav-
ings banks, including the
Bowery Savings Bank, have
been "less so."
The university was estab-
lished in 1886, and has
grown- to become a four-
campus, 7,000-student Or-
thodox institution.
According to the press
report, the university has
not paid anything to the
Bowery Savings Bank on
the mortgage since Sep-
tember. The spokesman
said the university has
made payments totaling
$5.5 million since Sep-
tember and was making
every effort to work out a
negotiated formula to
stretch out future pay-

ments.
Lamm also said, "We
want to reassure the fa-
culty, our students and sup-
porters of our continuing
strength and determination
to function as a major edu-
cational force in this coun-
try." He also said "our at-
torneys are studying the
papers in the current law
suit and we will respona
shortly."
Acting State Supreme
Court Justice Beverly
Cohen signed an order re-
quiring the university to
show why the Bowery Sav-
ings Bank should not "re-
cover from Yeshiva Univer-
sity all unrestricted pledges
and contributions . . . as se-
curity" for the mortgage.
Mortgage terms require the
university to make monthly
$373,000 payments until
1997. The court order was
part of the lawsuit to which
Lamm referred.
The university, which has
an annual budget of $115
million, is currently in the
midst of a campaign to raise
$100 million, with hopes of
completing that campaign
in 1986, the 100th anniver-
sary of the university's
founding.

BONN (JTA) — Eleven
policemen and nine
passersby were injured in a
fierce clash between police
and neo-Nazi demon-
strators in Nuremberg
Tuesday.
The neo-Nazis are mem-
bers of the Wehrs-
portsgruppe Hoffman
which was recently declared
unconstitutional b3'7Interior
Minister Gerhard Baum. Its
self-styled "fuehrer," 42-
year-old Carl-Heinz
Hoffman and three other
members were arrested and
taken into temporary cus-
tody.
The street battle occurred
when police attempted to
disperse the neo-Nazis, who
were staging a demonstra-
tion in violation of a ban by
the local authorities. The
Wehrsportsgruppe Hoff-
man, which masquer-
aded as a sports organ-
ization, has appealed
against Baum's decision
and is seeking to re-
establish its legal status.
In another develop-
ment, the Duesseldorf
state prosecutor con-
firmed that additional
charges are being con-
sidered against Ernst
Heinrichsohn, the former
mayor of Buergstadt in
Bavaria, who was sen-
tenced to six years' im-
prisonment by a Cologne
court last month for his
role in the deportation of
French Jews and others
when he served with the
Gestapo in Paris during
World War II.
Heinrichsohn, who was
re-arrested last week after
being released on bail
raised by townspeople of
Buergstadt, has appealed to
the high court in Karlsruhe

against his sentence. The
state prosecutor said that
Heinrichsohn is suspected
of having murdered five
French resistance fighters
in 1944, but could not say
whether the investigation
of this matter will result in
a new trial.

Dulzin Declines
to Meet Pope

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
World Zionist Organization
Executive chairman Leon
Dulzin declined an invita-
tion to meet with Pope John
Paul II at the Vatican, ap-
parently because it was ex-
tended to him on a personal
basis rather than as WZO
head.
The WZO Executive de-
cided to discuss the incident
when Dulzin returns from
his current visit to Latin
America.
Dulzin reportedly was to
have stopped off in Rome ey ,
route to Venezuela and tc.
have lunched with the Pope
Monday. Instead, he flew
directly to his destination.
According to one re-
port, he will meet with the
Pope on his way back to
Israel. Another report
said the Pope will receive
Palestine Liberation
Organization chief Yasir
Arafat next week.

Dulzin was praised for his
snub to the Pope by Raphael
Kotlowitz, head of the
Jewish Agency's immigra-
tion department. He said, at
the WZO Executive -meet-
ing, that Dulzin acted prop-
erly when he refused to
meet the Pontiff except as a
representative of the
Jewish people.
