Sen. Faxon announced this week that he will not seek an- other term in office this year. "Be- ing among the minority in the Senate is frustrating. The best part of the job is being in the dis- trict (which would change this election due to redistricting). Lansing is frustrating and unre- warding. I'm old enough that I can get retirement," said Sen. Faxon. Once he leaves, he would like to focus more of his attention on the arts and the Internation- al School. "I never say never, but 10 years from now I don't think I will be in office," said Rep. Berman. "Then again, 20 years .

I do know I'd like to continue writing." Sen. Honigman is sure about one thing he would like to do in the future — take time to write a novel. Sen. Levin said politics, either in or out of office, always will be a part of his life. But, once out of office, he'd like to teach — either at a college or law school. His brother hopes to remain in Washington for the forseeable future, although he tossed out the idea of one day working with children. "I always said if only kids could vote, I would never lose," said Rep. Levin. "As for the future, I still feel very young. There is a lot that needs to be done and I enjoy doing it." Rep. Gubow's long-term devo- tion to politics remains firm, as well. "I'm committed to this type of public service," he said. Sen. Pollack said, "Twenty years from now, I'll be 71, retired from politics and living abroad for some period, perhaps in a developing country. I think it would be nice to live in Israel for some period of time. I also see my- self spending time with my grandchildren, who are yet to be born. "I spent the first 40 years of my life without being called Senator and without the respect and opportunities that go with it. My first name is Lana, not Sen- ator." ❑ (Remember 1-800-YOUR MAN) IN NY: 212-629-6090 ISRAEL'S No. COATS UNLIMITED Oak Park Lincoln Center 26150 Greenfield Road Oak Park, MI 48237 (313) 968-2060 West Bloomfield Orchard Mall 6337 Orchard Lake Road West Bloomfield, MI48322 (313) 855-9955 Troy Troy Commons 871 E. Big Beaver Road 528-9966 Troy, Ml 48237 Daring London London — Ontario, that is, — is normally a conservative town. But one synagogue has changed that. MARA KOVEN SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS he announcement in the Jan. 11, 1994, edition of the Congregation Or Shalom Bulletin was brief and straightforward: "All members [men and women] of Congrega- tion Or Shalom are encouraged to perform the mitzvah of tefill- in, at daily services." With that notice, the 300-fam- ily synagogue became the first Conservative synagogue in the Province of Ontario — and one of the first in all of Canada — to al- low women to wear tefillin dur- ing morning prayers. While several women — who have been counted as part of the minyan at Or Shalom for some time — at- tend the shacharit service, only a couple actually wear tefillin. T While not out of character for Or Shalom, inviting women to put on tefillin was a bit daring for London's 2,500-member Jewish community — normally a good deal more tradition-bound. London — a city of 381,000 in southwestern Ontario midway between Toronto and Detroit — has a very WASPy, upper crust feel to it despite the recent influx of Poles, Cambodians and Kurds. The British influence is every- where: one can boat on the Thames River, walk on Oxford or Picadilly streets or visit nearby Stratford to see the Shakespeare festival. London's Jewish community is largely from elsewhere. Many are English speakers who left Mon-
