Buffalo Rabbi
Sees Significant
Rise in Divorces

BUFFALO (JTA) — A
Buffalo Reform rabbi, who
has officiated at more than
2,000 weddings, reports he
has seen a rise in the divorce
rate to about 50 percent cur-
rently, a decline in the
growth of creative additions
to the wedding service, and
decisions for smaller, more
economical weddings.
Rabbi Martin Goldberg,
who performed those mar-
riages during his 28 years at
Temple Beth Zion, also re-
ported that Jewish couples,
like a growing number of
couples of other faiths in
American society, are mar-
rying later in life and for
different reasons than they
did in the previous genera-
tion.
He expressed his views in
a report in the Buffalo
Jewish Review. He said that
20 and 30 years ago, "there
was a stigma attached to di-
vorce. Now, there is no
stigma. Today we (Jews) are
becoming like everyone
else." He added that there
are many more weddings
among Jews "because there
are many more divorces."

Drive Is Begun
for Cosell Center
at -Hebrew U.

NEW YORK — The
Howard Cosell Center for
Physical Education at the
Hebrew University of
Jerusalem will be created in
the name of the ABC sports
commentator.
The announcement was
made by David A. "Sonny"
Werblin, president of Madi-
son Square Garden and the
national chairman of the
,Cosell National Committee,
on behalf of the American
Friends of the Hebrew Uni-
versity. That organization

Friends of the Hebrew Uni-
versity, and particularly
the organization's annual
sports dinner, held in mem-
ory of the Israeli athletes
killed by PLO terrorists
during the 1972 Munich
Olympics.

Holocaust
Debate Urged

CHICAGO — A Neb-
raska businessman has of-
fered four Northwestern
University student groups
$7,000 to arrange a debate
with Holocaust revisionist
Arthur Butz, the Chicago
Sentinel reported. All four
groups have spurned the of-
fer.
Butz is the author of "The
Hoax of the 20th Century,"
a 1977 book claiming that
the Holocaust was an exag-
gerated ruse.
The businessman who
made the offer, William
Curry, is a 1943 Northwest-
ern graduate. Curry said he
wants to give Butz a chance
to be cleared in public and
that the murder of six mil-
lion Jews by the Nazis dur-
ing World War II was a
"Zionist myth."
