A buzzer system will soon be installed so office secretaries don't have to get up to let guests in. "I like the idea of knowing who is in the building and having control over access," said Beth Robinson, the syn- agogue's executive director. "The Southfield police have been so helpful. A crime prevention person spent an hour with me trying to im- prove security. We talked about everything from lock ing the doors to building a fence around the syn- agogue." Ms. Robinson isn't the only director of a Detroit Jewish institution trying to beef up security in the wake of the Persian Gulf war and fears of terrorism. At Jewish Family Service, a security guard watches the entrance. Other institution leaders don't want to talk about specific measures, but Rabbi Reuven Drucker of Young Israel of Greenfield agrees there is a heightened sense of security awareness. Last week, Jewish com- munal leaders discussed security measures with offi- cials from the Southfield and Oak Park public safety departments and the FBI. Many of the security sug- gestions were basic common sense things, said Richard Loebenthal, Anti- Defamation League of B'nai B'rith director. For example, most, if not all, doors should be locked at all times and suspicious incidents or strangers should be noted. Mail, especially irregularly- shaped packages with no return address, should be checked for signs of oil stains or wires and be turned into the police if necessary. Mr. Lobenthal urged Jew- ish community leaders con- cerned with security to use "reasonable prudence," but not to adopt a "siege men- tality." At Jewish Vocational Ser- vice, the security measures are nothing new, said Bar- bara Nurenberg, JVS asso- ciate executive director. "Because of the kind of office we are where we have a number of handicapped and senior adults, we make security a priority," she said. ❑ AUTO SERVICE CENTER Mr. Mechanic has especially trained technicians able to take on all your foreign car repair needs, including Japanese and European models.
