Cincinnati (JTA) — A
summer of fun turned to
tragedy at a summer camp
near here.
Fifteen-year-old Craig
Ryan Brill, a counselor-in-
training, died in a fire that
broke out at 3:32 a.m. on
Aug. 7 in the four- room
wood cabin that housed
eight CITs and their
counselor. The cabin was in
an isolated part of the camp
away from other cabins.
The fire started in a ceiling
light in the front bedroom,
and Craig died of smoke in-
halation, Indiana state
police said.
Livingston, a resident
camp for about 200 campers
ages 8 to 16, is operated by
the Cincinnati Jewish
Community Center. It is
located in Bennington, Ind.,
about 60 miles southwest of
Cincinnati.
According to Wayne
White, chief of the East
Enterprise (Ind.) Volunteer
Fire Department, located
about 11 miles from Liv-
ingston, firefighters in four
engines were at the camp
within 13 minutes.
About four miles from the
camp they could see flames
blazing in the sky. By the
time the fire department
arrived, Mr. White said, the
cabin was entirely engulfed
in flames. It took about 15
minutes before firefighters
could enter the cabin; in
about 30 minutes they had
the blaze under control.
According to Indiana State
Police Trooper John
Johnson, who investigated
the fire, Craig was asleep in
the cabin with the other
CITs and their counselor
when the fire broke out.
After the fire was
discovered, one of the other
occupants of the cabin tried
to assist Craig, who was in
his sleeping bag, zipped to
the waist, and help him
stand up. The other in-
dividual let go of Craig and
was unable to relocate him.
The fire spread rapidly and
the cabin was filled with
dense smoke. One other
occupant of the cabin was
slightly burned.
Craig, a former camper
who was participating in the
CIT program for the first
time, had been at camp since
June 9.
Friday, Aug. 7, the day of
the fire, was the last day of
camp. Buses left Livingston
in the morning with campers
bound for the Jewish Center
without many of them know-
ing that someone had died in
the fire.
When the buses arrived at
the Jewish Center in
Roselawn at about 11:30
a.m., staff members from the
JCC boarded the buses to in-
form the children what had
happened.
A brief memorial service,
led by Rabbi Sol Greenberg
of Valley Temple, was held,
followed by grief counseling
sessions, organized by Steve
Sunderland, co-founder of
the Fernside Center for
Grieving Children, along
with staff members of Jew-
ish Family Service, Big
Brothers, the Jewish Center
and the Jewish Federation.

Operator
Sentenced
Vancouver, British
Columbia (JTA) — The
operator of a telephone hate
line, Canadian Liberty Net,
has been sentenced to two
months in jail and fined
$2,500 (Canadian).
In addition to the sentence
meted out to Anthony
McAleer, federal Justice
Max Teitelbaum fined --
Canadian Liberty Net itself
$5,000. And the judge warn-
ed that if Mr. McAleer does
not pay his personal fine, he
will spend another month in
jail.
Michael Elterman,
spokesman for the Canadian
Jewish Congress, Pacific
Region, was pleased with the
judge's decision, "We appre-
ciate that the Canadian
system works," he said.
The sentence follows two
court orders.
In July, Juustice
Teitelbaum found Canadian
Liberty Net to be in con-
tempt of court for continuing
to operate, after federal
Justice Francis Muldoon or-
dered it shut down in March.
Rather than shut down,
Mr. McAleer had moved his
base of operations from Van-
couver to Bellingham,
Wash., and changed its -
name to Canadian Liberty
Net in Exile.
Judge Teitelbaum ordered
Mr. McAleer and Canadian
Liberty Net to stop
disseminating its hate mes-
sages while a federal human
rights tribunal conducted a
hearing into whether the
telephone line, which has at-
tacked Jews, blacks and non-
white immigrants, was
violating the Canadian
Human Rights Act.
