signs or dress up in strange
costumes in order to draw
Monty Hall's attention on

host of television's frenetic "Let's
Make a Deal,” game show, will be the
master of ceremonies at the Michigan
Jewish Sports Hall of Fame induction
dinner at Congregation Shaarey

job is much more satisfying than a
straight entertainment job.
Charitable work, says Hall, "has
given me more than anything could
give me. Next to my family, that's the
most important part of life. Every
time you build a hospital wing or

handicapped children's endeavor or
