graduation he was named

position in all of Bnai Brith.

timore Institute of Jewish

1974), and served on the
board of governors of the
USO in Los Angeles from
1962 to 1967.

In 1974 and 1975, he re-
presented the federa-
tions of the Pacific
Northwest at meetings of
the Jewish Agency in Is-
rael. In 1968, he was
elected vice chairman of
the board of the National
Jewish Hospital in De-
nver.

Spitzer was active in

president of the Jewish
Community Fund (1968-
1971); board member Com-
munity Hospital (1969-
1971); president, Watkins

Religious Center, Univer-
sity of California at River-
side (1970-1971); and first
vice presidentr United Fund-

1963, he served as a board
member of the Los Angeles

fairs includes membership
on the executive committee
of the board of governors of
the United Way of King
County (1975-1977) and the
general chairmanship of the
1974 campaign of that city's
Jewish federation. By ap-
pointment of Seattle's
mayor, he served (1977-
1978) as the founder-
chairman of the Seattle-

Program.
