Russian immigrants per
year are referred by the
Jewish Family Service. The
patients are usually seen on
a scheduled basis at the
hospital's Shiffman Clinic
where guild volunteer in-
terpreters are on hand to as-
sist them. When Russian
patients are admitted for
emergency care, however,
an interpreter isn't always
available.
Eleven nurses and one
physician are studying Rus-
sian. For those who have to
miss a class, tapes of each
session are available.
The classes are being
taught by Sinai Guild vol-
unteers Norval Slobin and
Miriam Wilson. Ms. Wilson
is a former Russian in-
structor at Wayne State
University. Their lesson
plans are guided by a list of
key terms and phrases most
often used when conversing
with ER patients.
As an additional aid, Slo-
bin made this list into a
permanent glossary for his
students to keep on hand
and use as a referral tool.

Children's Honor Roll Focus
of New Local JNF Campaign
A local appeal is cur-
rently being made to the
parents and grandparents
or other relatives of every
Jewish child in the commu-
nity, to enroll them in the
Jewish National Fund
Children's Golden Book in
Jerusalem.
"Celebrations for which
such inscriptions are appro-
priate," according to Dr. Jay
Kaner, local chairman of
this JNF project, and Ruben
H. Isaacs, president of JNF
of Greater Detroit, "are
birthdays, a Brit Mila, Pi-
dyon Haben, or other joyous
occasion."
There is a special cam-
paign at present to inscribe
the names of newborn
babies.
The donor receives a cer-
tificate directly from
Jerusalem attesting to the
DR. JAY KANER
inscription and picture in
the book on display in the
JNF headquarters, and at-
tached to the certificate is
the duplicate picture of the
honored child. (This can
then be given to the child to
keep forever, if the donor
wishes.)
For details, call the JNF
office. 557-6644.
