HOURS: 9-5:30 MON/FRI, 9-3 SAT OR CALL FOR A SPECIAL APPOINTMENT ANYTIME Father John Pawlikowski, center, receives an award at the Holocaust Memorial Academy. Pictured with him are, from left: Sonia Popowski, Dr. John Mames, Abraham Weberman and Rabbi Charles Rosenzveig. A Catholic priest who works toward furthering Jewish- Christian dialogue to prevent an- other Holocaust and the son of non-Jews who rescued Jews from the Nazis received honors Sun- day at the annual Holocaust Memorial Academy sponsored by Shaarit Haplaytah. Father John T. Pawlikowski, professor of social ethics at the Catholic Theological Union, re- ceived "The Righteous Among the Nations of the World Award" at the gathering which filled Shiffman Hall of the main Jewish Community Center. In a separate presentation, Cezary Chorazyczewski, son of the late Mr. Ignacy Chorazyc- zewski, and Mrs. Helena Chorazyczewski, who could not attend the event, accepted a cer- tificate attesting to the planting of trees in Israel in honor of his parents' courage during World War II. Accepting the award from Dr. John Mames, chairman, depart- ment of oral history and Holocaust studies for the Shaarit Haplaytah survivors organiza- tion, Rev. Pawlikowski said he felt "humbled" to receive the award. He said he didn't consider himself "as real a righteous gen- tile as those who saved Jews dur- ing that horrible period." Rev. Pawlikowski said that the survivors who chose to live each day rather than give up and those who built up the -State of Israel "are testimonies for life which help my work." He said the non-Jews who risked their lives saving Jews during the war did so because "the righteous gentiles believed there was value to life beyond the immediate moment." He con- cluded "the primary lesson for me: It is not madness to continue to remember the Holocaust." Bob and Ruth Forster, repre- senting the First United Presbyterian Church in Warren, said they were moved by the pro- gram. It brought tears to my eyes," Mrs. Forster said. Michael Fordonski of Oak Park, an Auschwitz survivor, said that even though such a pro- gram is painful, it is necessary. "If this program does not con- tinue, people will forget. It is necessary to teach people that something like that could happen again." Messages were received from dignitaries and government offi- cials, and a resolution from the State Legislature was presented by State Sen. Jack Faxon. Repre- sentatives from community organizations and interfaith groups brought greetings to the assembly. The program was completed by musical selections rendered voc- ally by Cantor Max Shimansky of Cong: Beth Achim and on flute and piano by Miriam Ciesla and Rochelle Peterson. Children of survivors and those who survived the concentration camps joined in a special candle-lighting cere- mony in memory of the six mil- lion Jews who perished during the Holocaust. D.C. Ceremony For Holocaust Washington (JTA) — The rotunda of the Capitol was packed Tuesday afternoon, as members of Congress, Holocaust survivors and hundreds of others observed the annual "Day of Re- membrance" ceremony marking Yom Hashoah, Holocaust Re- membrance Day. Some 800 participants stood si- lently under the Capitol dome as Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, chairman of the United States Holocaust Memorial Council, awarded the first Eisenhower Liberation Medal to American soldiers and officers who liber- ated the concentration camps in 1945. The medal was established to recognize "outstanding contri- butions to human rights and freedom." The ceremonies were marred when Capitol police removed a woman who refused to give up a placard. Her .sign said, "Memo- rial ceremonies are not enough. We want open hearings on Mengelegate," a reference to Au- schwitz doctor Josef Mengele. 7 , / /
