An Oakland County Cir-
cuit Court judge had taken
custody of two children from
the mother one year after a
divorce and awarded cus-
tody to the father in order to
raise the children Jewishly.
Attorney Joel Schavrien
said Judge George La Plata
made the custody decision
last week because the
mother of two boys aged
nine and 12 had violated the
divorce settlement by inter-
ferring with the boys'
Jewish education.
Schavrien said the
mother, who was born
Catholic, had a Reform con-
version before her first mar-

Conservative conversion,
the mother agreed in writ-

the marriage as Jewish.
In recent years, Schav-

UNITED NATIONS
(JTA) — Premier Menahem
Begin of Israel is scheduled
to address the General As-
sembly's special session on
disarmament June 18. Is-
raeli officials noted that this
will be the first time that an
incumbent Israeli Premier
addresses a session of the
United Nations.
Among other world lead-
ers scheduled to address the
special five-day session are
President Reagan, June 17;
Chancellor Helmut
Schmidt of West Germany,
June 14; and Prime Minis-
ter Margaret Thatcher of
Great Britain, June 16.
Israeli officials said they
do not know if Begin will
meet with any of these lead-
ers. They also noted that
Begin's itinerary is not yet
finalized and it is not yet
known when h_e will arrive
in New York.
According to Israeli offi ,.
cials, Begin decided to ad-
dress the UN after he was
invited to appear around
the same time before the
Albert Schweitzer Institute
in New York as the co-
winner with the late Egyp-
tian President Anwar Sadat
of the Nobel Prize for peace
in 1978. While in New York,
Begin will also meet with-
Jewish leaders, Israeli offi-
cials said.

cided to become Catholic
again and raise the boys
as Catholic. The husband
and wife were divorced
last year, with custody
awarded to the wife.
However, as part of the
divorce agreement, the
judge .ordered that "the
sole and exclusive reli-
gious training and educa-
tion of the minor children
be in the Jewish faith . . ."
Schavrien said he
petitioned for the custody
change on behalf of the
father after, contrary to the
judge's order, the mother
interferred with the boys'
Jewish education and
encouraged Christian be-
liefs.
The mother involved the
Oakland County Chapter of
the American Civil Liber-
ties Union in the case. The
ACLU said the children had
the right to make their own
decision on religion, based
