Women from all over the
country will convene at Cong.
Shaarey Zedek next month for a
jubilee year reunion of the
synagogue's first consecration
class.
On Oct. 19, alumnae of the
1934, 1935, 1936 and 1937
classes will meet at Shaarey
Zedek for services, a luncheon
and program, a tribute to Goldie
Adler and a party.
In 1934, Rabbi Abraham M.
Hershman, then spiritual leader
of the Conservative congrega-
tion inaugurated the program of
Jewish studies for women, who,
at that time, did not have the
option of bat mitzvah available
to them.
According to Judy Stulberg,
coordinator of the reunion com-
mittee, Rabbi Hershman wanted
"men and women to be equal
partners in terms of Jewish edu-
cation and commitment to
Judaism."
Rabbi Hershman's idea was
subsequently adopted by numer-
ous Conservative congregations
throughout the country.
The first ceremony was high-
lighted by a presentation about
the lives of Jewish heroines and
by a talk by Judge Anna Mos-
covitz Kross of New York.
The Oct. 19 celebration will
include Sabbath services, at
which the former consecrants
will be honored and in which
they will participate. Following
the kiddush, luncheon will be
served and a program on the
theme, "Do You Remember?"
will be presented.
Mrs. Adler will be honored
"for the many years of dedica-
tion and commitment she has
given to the consecration pro-
gram."
That evening, an informal
party in the spirit of the 1930s
will be given in the home of Dr.
and Mrs. Sidney Leib. Mrs. Leib
is an alumna of one of the early
consecration classes.
Assisting Mrs. Stulberg on the
reunion committee are: Ann
Barnett, Ann Doneson, Florine
Gaynes, Dorothy Gerson, Vir-
ginia Hoffman, Sylvia Hurvitz,
Marion Leib, Evelyn Lowen,
Lois Nelson, Edith Schlesinger
and June Stein.
Farrakhan Creates Stir
Washington (JTA) — Almost
two months after Black Moslem
leader Louis Farrakhan deliv-
ered a virulently anti-Semitic
speech in Washington, Mayor
Marion Barry denounced it but
did not repudiate Farrakhan
personally.
Barry, in a speech last week
to the' executive committee of
the Interfaith Conference of
Metropolitan Washington, said
"the anti-Semitic impeachments
that he (Farrakhan) made didn't
help our city at all." But he in-
sisted that Farrakhan's remarks
should not be interpreted as a
reflection of conflict between
blacks and Jews but rather a re-
flection on the tension between
the Nation of Islam, which Far-
rakhan heads and the Jewish
community.
In a July 22 speech to an
audience of more than 10,000 at
the Convention Center in Wash-
ington, Farrakhan spoke of the
"wickedness" of the Jews and
declared that "black people will
not be controlled by the Jews."
Barry, who is black, had been
urged by Jewish community and
religious leaders to speak out
strongly 'against Farrakhan's
diatribe. But the mayor de-
mured. He told the Interfaith
Conference that he did not re-
spond earlier because "I don't
like to create a situation I
don't think we ought to react to
everyone."
Meanwhile, a full-page adver-
tisement denouncing Farrakhan
appeared in the Los Angeles
Times Friday.
The advertisement, paid for
the National Conference of
Christians and Jews and signed
by several religious and political
leaders, came on the heels of a
raging dispute here over Far-
rakhan's scheduled speech
Saturday evening at the Forum.
Some 17,000 persons were ex-
pected to attend.
The Farrakhan appearance in
Los Angeles has divided the
Jewish and black community.
There have been several meet-
ings between black and Jewish
leaders, including at least two
with Mayor Tom Bradley.
