Women's Phonogift among
Campaign closing activities
Detroit area women
will be asked to aid Jews in
need — at home, overseas
and in Israel — when a
Jewish Welfare Federation
Women's Division volun-
teer calls next week to ask
for a gift to the 1984 Allied
Jewish Campaign.
Phonogift, the Women's
Division annual pledge
drive on behalf of the Cam-
paign, runs from March 25
through April 1. Division
volunteers will call 5,000
local women. "We are ask-
ing women to renew their
commitment to Jewish
identity this year," said
Judith Naftaly, Phonogift
chairman.
"Here in Detroit, the Al-
lied Jewish Campaign
reaches into nearly every
Jewish household, includ-
ing those touched by eco-
nomic recession and other
hardships. Overseas, Jews
in 30 countries receive our
assistance through the
Joint Distribution Commit-
tee. And In Israel, our Cam-
paign dollars help the
Jewish Agency to attend to
human needs. We wouldn't
be able to accomplish all of
this without Phonogift."
Leaders and volunteers of
the 1984 Allied Jewish
Campaign will gather for
the final progress report
meeting 10 a.m. Sunday at
Jewish Federation Apart-
ments in Oak Park.
Rabbi M. Robert Syme of
Temple Israel will bring a
first-hand report from his
mission to Eastern Europe
and Israel, division chair-
men will share results so far
of their workers' efforts, and
volunteers will gather for
the annual "family por-
trait." Brunch will precede
the meeting.
Rabbi Syme was selected
by Federation to serve on
the United Jewish Appeal
Rabbinic Cabinet and to
participate in the recent
mission with his colleagues
from acoss the country.
Volunteers in teams of
two will go out on Buddy-Up
Day — an intensive, per-
sonal solicitation effort on
April 2 to reach all major
contributors on behalf of the
Campaign and Project Re-
newal.
The following Sunday,
April 8, workers will hold
the closing telethon at
United Hebrew Schools.

Akiva case postponed
The lawsuit filed by
Akiva Hebrew Day School
against the Michigan Em-
ployment Relations Corn-
mission has been postponed
for six weeks.
Mark Cousens, represent-
ing the teachers who struck
Akiva last fall who were ul-
timately left without jobs,
said the case was delayed
becasue of the illness of one
of the attorneys.
A libel suit filed against
the school over claims that
the striking teachers
engaged in picket line vio-
lence has also been post-
poned. According to
Cousens, there has been an
informal agreement among
attorneys for both sides to
concentrate on the MERC

ICRF to give
Research grants
to Israeli MDs
New York (JTA) — More
than $500,000 in grants to
support innovative cancer
research by Israel's
foremost young physicians
and scientists will be
awarded by Israel Cancer
research fund (ICRF) at the
annual allocations meeting
of its scientific review panel
in New York Thursday.
This sum, according to
Dr. Daniel G. Miller, ICRF
president, is the largest
single grant of voluntary
funds ever made to encour-
age cancer research in Is-
rael. Since its formation in
1976, the ICRF has allo-
cated $1.5 million for re-
search into the causes and
treatment of cancer.
Dr. Elliott Osserman of
the Institute of Cancer Re-
search at Columbia Univer-
sity, chairman of the ICRF
scientific advisory board,
will preside at the day-long
deliberations of the review
panel.

verted Jew who tried to con-
