Discover the Wonder of the Holidays at Krandalls! 15, a student at North Farm- ington High School, partici- pates for the social aspect, but likes the fact that the chavurah helps strengthen her Jewish identity. "I like learning and maintaining my Jewish identity, especially now because I'm in a public school." Josh Cutler, 16, also a student at North Farm- ington, said the chavurah gave him an opportunity to be with friends. "I guess I like being in a Shabbos at- mosphere back at Hillel with my friends. It's fun!" Mark Leuchter, 16, a junior at West Bloomfield High, said he got involved because it is "good for my Hebrew educa- tion." He said he had fond memories of his days at Hillel an he wanted to "keep Hillel a part of my life." Katzman said coming back to Hillel was like being with an ex- tended family. "It's like corn- ing home each time you go there." Leuchter said he would like to see programs which focus on life for Soviet Jews and the Holocaust. Cutler hoped Rab- bi Chuck Diamond, a Camp Ramah rabbi, could be engag- ed as a speaker. Katzman would like to have a program on comparative religions. Smiley said he hopes the chavurah will "keep post- Hillel education in the kids' minds." And he would like the Hillel idea to spread to other Jewish educational institu- tions. "We hope this is a model that will be recognized nationwide?' Brandeis Teen Program Due Waltham, Mass. — Marine ecology of Cape Cod, the physics of toys, observing animal behavior and aero- dynamics are some of the science courses offered this July to 300 talented high school students through the newly-established Brandeis Summer Discoveries Program.

The emphasis is on new topics which have not yet been incorporated into the regular high school science curriculum, in addition to creative approaches to fun- damental scientific topics. Students will have special op- portunities for hands-on ex- perience at institutions such as the New England Primate Center and the New England Science Center.

Competitors have duplicated the size but have yet to recreate the heritage and sound that comes from within. Although produced by nearly all guitar makers here and abroad the Dreadnought design remains an original Martin innovation that dates back to 1916.
