Other papers contained the autobiographies of young Jewish children who respond- ed to a YIVO autobiography contest in the 1930s. Norich said that some of the autobio- graphies were book-length and "contained rich historical detail." Norich said the New York archive was like a paginated book whose unnumbered missing pages were suddenly found. "It is up to the Lithuanian authorities what will become of this material," Norich said. "But the very fact that they have kept this material all this time, that some people have risked their lives to save it, that they took the in- itiative to show it to YIVO representatives, indicates that there is a positive at- titude toward Jewish affairs in Vilnius. "They recognize that YIVO comes from there, that it is a creation of the Jewish com- munity of that city. I'm hopeful that they will con- tinue to do the right thing as they have done in the past." Unfortunately, Norich add- ed, the Vilnius book depository does not have the equipment that it ought to have. He pointed out that the depository has only a few workers trying to catalog the collection, and they don't have copying machines, microfilming equipment or other means for preserving the material. "We are writing to the Book Publishing Ministry in Lithuania," said Norich, "ask- ing them as an act of friend- ship to give us access to our collections. "We are asking to be in- vited back to Vilnius to discuss the whole question in detail. We are prepared to res- pond with our own acts of friendship, and to undertake a program of support for the book center in recognition for what they have done and will do in ur ' behalf. We're prepared to assist them in preservation of their materials." 0 FAMILY FUN FOP EVERYONE FRI. - AUG. 18 SAT. - AUG. 19 SUN. - AUG. 20 4 PM — 10 PM 11 AM — 10 PM 11 AM — 8 PM •KIDDIE RIDES •PONY RIDES •PROFESSOR BALLOONO •MOUNTED POLICE DRILL •THE RHODIANS •CRIME PREVENTION BOOTH •THE ATHENIAN DANCERS •UPLAND HILLS PETTING FARM •KIDDIE RIDES •PONY RIDES •PROFESSOR BALLOONO •FACE PAINTING •THE RHODIANS •CHILD FINGERPRINTING •SQUAD CAR EXHIBIT •UPLAND HILLS PETTING FARM 0 t-■ z Joy Road • PERFORMANCES SATURDAY: 6-7 & 8-9 SUNDAY: 2-3 & 6-7 OAKWOOD HOSPITAL HEALTH SCREENING BLOOD PRESSURE – CHOLESTEROL tz '89 DELTA OLDSMOBILE AND OTHER PRIZES! 3 LAS VEGAS IV I G THANK YOU for your gifts, cards and calls with good wishes for my recovery.
