Fisher Community Foundation of the Jewish Welfare Federation's United Jewish Charities. Stanley J. Winkelman, chair- man of the foundation, said Tem- ple Beth El's Religious School Re- treat Program received first-year funding. In conjunction with the Fresh Air Society, the project will take place during the the school year at Camp Maas. By living to- gether in an atmosphere that is less structured than the classroom, the students will create their own "Jewish com- munity." They will become more involved socially and explore a variety of informal, educational strategies. More than 400 chil- dren in grades K-12 will have the opportunity to play, study and pray in a camping environment. The program's goal is to con- nect these strategies to the schools' formal curriculum and to stimulate learning beyond the school year. Programs approved for contin- ued funding include Fresh Air Society's Israel Teen Travel Mis- sion, approved for a second year. Participants combine 26 days of touring Israel and 12 days in Ramla, Detroit's Project renewal sister city, with an Israeli teen counterpart and his family. Last year's participants felt that they made life-long friendships with their Ramla family. This year's group will attend six pre-trip seminars and afterward have the opportunity to work in communal service for a Federation agency. Approved for third-year fund- ing is the United Hebrew Schools-Melton Center Program. Thirty teachers will study in a two-week seminar sponsored in conjunction with the Melton Cen- ter for Jewish Education. In 1985-86, 30 teachers from synagogues and temples partici- pated in the program, and the Melton curriculum was suc- cessfully introduced into a variety of educational settings reaching more than 750 youngsters. The In-Home Respite Care program of the Jewish Family Service was funded for a second year. With about 75 percent of all disabled, frail, chronically or terminally ill people cared for in their own homes, their caregivers are often in pressing need of re- spite, even if only for a few hours a day or a week. Designed to help prevent pre- mature placement of the patient in a nursing home, respite care relieves the stress that constant caregiving brings. Supported in part by a grant from the Area Agency on Aging 1-B, the program was given high priority by Federation's Task Force on Community-Based Serv- ices to the Non-Institutionalized Elderly. David Handleman is president of the United Jewish Charities; which provides funding for the Max M. Fisher Jewish Commu- nity Foundation. `I'll Repay' $100,000 Travel Agent Vows Staff Report SWATCH WATCHES Reg $30 NOW $24 KgimPIPP4 q1 ''vr47mW/K71" VISIT OUR SHOWROOM, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED • FREE JEWELRY CLEANING.

Hershkovitz, owner of B and H Travel in Southfield, is being sought by the State Police special investigations unit on a charge of larceny. A federal fugitive war- rant has been requested for him. According to State Police Lt. Douglas Rose, Hershkovitz failed to refund more than $100,000 to the congregation upon the trip's cancellation. Police said that when they were called into the case, Hershkovitz and his wife had moved out of their home and closed their offices. As The Jewish News went to press, Hershkovitz was still not in custody, but believed by Rose to still be in town. On Tuesday, Hershkovitz had called Jewish News Editor Emeritus Philip Slomovitz. "He told me not to believe the rumors about him and that he will pay back all of his debts," Slomovitz said. Attorney Jimm F. White, a board member of the temple who is handling its case, said, "We are hopeful that we can recover the money and the temple has pledged to do the right thing in regard to members and the con- gregation." The case is being pursued by the Livonia unit of the State Police, which investigates "white collar" crime. Israel Condemns South Africa Jerusalem (JTA) — The For- eign Ministry strongly con- demned the state of emergency declared by the South African government. A statement re- leased last Sunday said it viewed with "extreme gravity" that government's refusal to - allow the Black community to mark the 10th anniversary of the Soweto riots. Israel announced a short while later that it would join the worldwide protest by shutting down its Embassy in Pretoria for 24 hours last Monday. The Foreign Ministry's state- ment went on to say that in accordance with Israel's funda- mental and consistent opposi- tion to apartheid, it is convinced that the latest deterioration of the situation in South Africa poses serious dangers to the welfare of the entire South African population.
