Synagogue Members
Raise Money For Arabs

JENNIFER FINER STAFF WRITER

S

heldon Miller and other
members of Congregation
Beth Shalom want to
send a message to the
family members of the Arabs
murdered last month by Dr.
Baruch Goldstein in Hebron.
Mr. Miller is head of a com-
mittee soliciting funds that will
be sent to families of the slain
men.
'We are trying in some small
measure to let the victims' fam-
ilies know that we express our
deep sorrow over this tragedy,"
Mr. Miller said. "We want to
make it clear that we are out-
raged by Dr. Goldstein's actions
and we think what happened
was murder."
Money has not yet been col-

lected, but so far a handful of
pledges have been made. The
fund was spearheaded by mem-
bers of Beth Shalom, not the
synagogue itself
Rabbi David Nelson, who
plans to contribute, said he
would like to see the concept ex-
panded to include not only fam-
ily members of Arab victims but
also Jewish families who have
suffered.
Mr. Miller is not sure how the
money will be distributed, but
he's not worried about getting
the money into the families'
hands.
On February 25, Dr. Gold-
stein walked into a mosque and
murdered over 40 Arabs while
they were praying. ❑

Berkley Play
Sends Message

STEVE STEIN STAFF WRITER

T

earned rave reviews from
the play's "harshest crit-
ic."
`The kids were absolutely su-
perior. They were unbeliev-
able,"said Helene Dworkin,
director of the Berkley High
School student production
which was staged. March 4-5.
Written by Bruce Jacoby,
The Girl in the Mirror deals
with teen suicide but offers a
positive message. It was per-
formed at a school which is still
recovering from the Dec. 1 sui-
cide of 15-year-old sophomore
Daniel Kellerman, a Hunting-
ton Woods resident who at-
tended Temple Emanu-El and
was a cross-country runner at
Berkley.
Because of poor weather and
the winter break, the 30-mem-
ber cast and crew of The Girl in
the Mirror were able to work to-
gether for only 33 weeks prior
to the performances.
"What the kids accomplished
in such a short period of time
went beyond my wildest expec-
tations,"said Ms. Dworkin, a
drama and English teacher at
Berkley. "Maybe it was because
they cared so much about the
subject matter.
"It's a very difficult play to
put on, and that includes both
cast and crew. Most dramas
have no more than 10 lighting
cues. This one has 63."
Sophomore Shashi Utchenik,
who played Dr. Allen, a psychi-

atrist, said she thought the
play's message reached the stu-
dents in the audience.
"From what people told me,
it had the effect we wanted,"
she said. "It made everyone
think about how important life
is.
"Everyone involved with the
play really dedicated himself to
it and we're happy about how
things went, but we're relieved
it's over. It was a very intense
few weeks."
Each presentation played to
a packed house in the 600-seat
school auditorium. Some audi-
ence members saw the show
twice.
`This was my 51st production
at Berkley. Each year, we put

convinced it was a
professional
production."

on a musical, a drama and a
comedy," Ms. Dworkin said.
"The crowds which saw The
Girl in the Mirror were as large
as any we've ever had for a dra-
ma.
"I had so many adults come
up to me after the performances
and say they thought the kids
were brilliant or incredible.
They couldn't believe it was a
