SOPHIE GARBER re-
cently entertained for her
friends here . . . and Dave
Susser, former Detroiter
visiting from Los Angeles
. . . But it was more than
just a "hello" party . . .
\Sophie took the time to
make it a reunion . . . by
calling members of the
former social club, - The
Omega Socials."
It had started back in
1928 when friends were
campers at Fresh Air Camp,
then located near Brighton,
on Blaine Lake . . .
Originators were Abe
Moses and the late Harry
Thay.
When summer camping
season was over, the group
of boy and girl teenagers (14
to 16) met at the "Y" (Young
Women's Hebrew Associa-
tion) on Rowena Ave. . . .
On the same street was the
Jewish Orphan Home
where there were six girls
and four boys of that age
group who attended camp
and became members of the
years.
It would be only natural if
Sophie Garber missed invit-
ing some former Omega
members . . . but there
couldn't be anyone more
sorrier than her . . . Get-
ting as many together as
she did was quite a feat in
itself.
OVER 1,000 potato
latkes were served to the
350 people who attended re-
cent Hanuka latke party by
Cong. Bnai David Sister-
hood and Men's Club . . .
and not a one pancake left
. . At each table was a
menora and a Russian in-
vitee was asked if he would
like to light one . . . The
man, in his 40s, said it
would be the first time he
ever lit a menora . . . that
in Russia he'd be jailed for
doing such a thing . . .
Norma Gealer was Sister-
hood chairman and Dr.
Bernard Maness, Men's
Club chairman.
