NANCY GORMAN OF GLASSMAN OLDSMOBILE/SAAB WINNER OF THE 1989 SAAB LONG RUN CONTEST WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK THE FOLLOWING: In the charming provincial town of Debrecen, near the Romanian border, an elderly • man named Ludwig lives a life of loneliness and • memory as one of only about 250 Jews left in the town, where the pre-war Jewish population was nearly 10,000. Ludwig eagerly welcomed some unexpected Jewish visitors to his spacious apartment, which stands around the corner from both functioning synagogues in the town, and not far from the town's kosher restau- rant. "We daven every day, but it is often difficult to get a minyan," he said. • Ludwig's home is cramm- . ed with heavy wooden fur- niture, and paintings cover the walls. A piano stands in one corner and a violin lies ▪ on a sideboard, closed in its case. "I'm all alone here, now," he said in a mixture of w fractured German and Yiddish. Then he turned to the pictures neatly displayed h-. on a cabinet. "This was my grandfather, a famous rabbi," he said, showing a black and white photo of a stern-faced man ► with a long gray beard. "This was my sister," he said, showing another pic- ture, this time of an attrac- ✓ ▪ - tive young woman. "She died in Auschwitz." He counted on his fingers — two, three, four — his • - family members who died in the Holocaust. And he found a photograph of the former ▪ main synagogue — an impos- ing building with two towers, also now destroyed. L MR. JEROME GLASSMAN MR. GEORGE GLASSMAN MR. JOHN FENNESSEY ► Jewish Telegraphic Agency Jew Is Stabbed In Old City Jo- Jerusalem (JTA) — A Jewish immigrant on his way to pray at the Western Wall was stabbed by two young Arabs using a screwdriver Sunday in the Old City. The victim, Avraham Feld, 35, sustained only slight in- juries. Police closed the Old City gates for about an hour after the incident. An undisclosed number of Arabs were ar- rested for questioning. Feld, a former New Yorker who settled in Israel more than 10 years ago, is mar- ried and has several children. AND TO ALL OF MY CUSTOMERS FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE. P.S.
