At Peachwood Inn we believe that good nursing care means caring for the
needs of the total person. It means that the nursing staff takes the time to
listen, to share and to comfort each resident...and their family. Good nurs-
ing care means much more than just being efficient. Good nursing care
should also mean loving, concerned kindness. At Peachwood it does.

Baltimore; mass mailings
have been sent; representa-
tives of the games have spo-
ken to members of every
major Jewish organization,
but the numbers are still com-
ing up short.
Lauren Kronthal, a mar-
keting account executive for
the Associated-Jewish Com-
munity Federation of Balti-
more, is on loan to the
Baltimore JCC to work exclu-
sively on the housing crunch.
While the numbers have im-
proved since she started as
housing coordinator on June
1, there is still a long way to
go.
"A large part of the com-
munity has already stood up
and said we want to be a part
of this," she said. "But there
are 90,000 Jews in Baltimore
and there are still a lot who
aren't involved."
"Our community always
held itself out as the most gra-
cious and most hospitable,"
Mr. Plant said. "And it's not
coming off that way. We
couldn't house Detroit's ath-
letes now."
Baltimore's reaction to the
housing situation surprises
Ms. Kronthal, who considers
the city a "flagship Jewish
community." Other cities have
hosted the games without a
housing problem, why not
Baltimore? We're not the first
city to do this," she said. "It's
been done before. The com-
munity has to stand up and
pull together."
The last North American
Maccabi games, held in
Detroit in 1990, welcomed a
little over 2,100 athletes to the
city. The games in Baltimore
are expected to attract the
largest group of athletes in the
games so far — about 2,600.
Although he said he is in no

position to judge Baltimore's
housing dilemma, Jay Robin-
son, who served as Detroit's
general games chairman for
both of that city's games in
1984 and 1990, believes that
hosting two games gave
Detroit's Jewish community a
better idea of what to expect
from the Maccabia. Still, he
said, "Baltimore must be do- (1",
ing the right thing or they
wouldn't have 1,900 beds" for
the Aug. 23-30 games.
Mr. Robinson noted that
Baltimore's Jewish communi-
ty would never recover if ath-
letes were turned away from
the Maccabia. "It's a black eye
forever for the Jewish com-
munity," he said.
The Maccabi housing pitch
started in full swing in
January, after the fervor from
the Council of Jewish Feder-
ations General Assembly, held
in Baltimore Nov. 19-24, died,
down. The more eager partic-
ipants signed up right away
and are now being asked to
take on additional athletes.
But the chore has been bring-
ing in those who know little
about the games and who
don't have children partici-
pating. (Baltimore athletes are
expected to host at least two
of their fellow competitors.)
Myrna Cardin, who over- '
sees the 40-member Baltimore
housing committee, worries
that not enough was done to
"allay the fears" of families
who think hosting will be a
chore. "We were so confident
that we'd get enough people
that maybe we didn't get the
word out well enough," she
said. "People are thinking
there's more to it than there
is. The kids are hardly home.
All we need from the families
are beds and Jewishnes8."

the view of those who would
forbid all abortion, thus ig-
noring the dear priority of ma-
ternal life or health.
"The matter of abortion
raises fundamental issues of
human life and sexuality in an
acute way," Rabbi Price says.
"Judaism provides us with the
tools to evaluate this difficult
issue in a systematic way.
Halachah is the gauge we use
to evaluate moral dilemmas."
In the High Court's 60-page
opinion, all seven justices fa-
vored upholding the Pennsyl-

vania restrictions. The opinion
states that the provisions up-
held in the Pennsylvania law
were constitutional and did
not impose undue burdens on
the right to an abortion.
The Pennsylvania ruling
leaves intact strict regulations
for women seeking abortions
in that state. First, women are
required to delay decisions for
24 hours to review state-man-
dated fetal development pho-
tographs with a physician.
Women also must be told
about alternatives before an
