At 81, she's doing it again.
Assisted Living at Springhouse,
opening soon.
She's an independent woman. But if she's going
to live her own life, she'll need a little assistance now
and then.
If you or someone yoii love is looking for a warm,
caring environment where independence is respect-
ed and a helping hand is always nearby, we can help.
Introducing Springhouse Assisted Living, open-
ing soon in Southfield.
We have a highly qualified staff to provide assis-
tance when it's needed, as well as features like an ice
cream parlor, formal dining room, country kitchen
and outdoor terrace to share with visiting family and
friends.
Regular wellness assessments let us work closely

rise in suicide in Israel is
further evidence that the
nation has moved from a
closely-knit community of
Zionist nation builders to an in-
creasingly prosperous middle-
class nation of individual strivers,
according to Dr. Sol Gordon, au-
thor of `When Living Hurts."
Dr. Gordon's book covers the
prevention of youth suicide, a
problem that has been especial-
ly marked in the Israeli army.
The book is published by the
Union of American Hebrew Con-
gregations (UAHC) Press and
has just been translated into He-
brew and issued in Israel by
Sirkis Publishers for use by so-
cial workers, youth counselors,
army officials and young people
themselves. It has also been
translated into Dutch.
`Today, the growing emphasis
in Israeli society on individual
motivation coupled with the need
to measure up to the high stan-
dards of Israel's military places
greater stress than ever before on
young soldiers," Dr. Gordon says.
"In the past, such pressures were
eased by a group cohesion in-
spired by the old Zionist concept
of working together to build the
nation of Israel. Today, commu-
nal solidarity is being replaced by
rugged individualism."

According to the Workshop or-
ganizers, Dr. Rachel Chechik and
Professor Michael Hass of the In-
stitute's Department of Particle
Physics, Weizmann's Pelletron-
type ion accelerator has been
used in AMS for over a decade,
mostly by the late Professor
Mordeckai Magaritz of the Weiz-
mann Institute and Professor
Michael Paul of the Hebrew Uni-
versity of Jerusalem in connec-
tion with geologic, oceanographic,
hydrologic and archaeologic in-
vestigations. The Weizmann
physicists, who are active accel-
erator users, now hope to inter-
est Israeli biologists in the
applicability of AMS to their own
research.

Dr. Gordon, professor emeri-
tus of Child and Family Studies
at Syracuse University, now lives
in San Francisco. He notes that
despite the recent worrisome in-
crease in youth suicide — once an
exceedingly rare phenomenon in
Israel — the overall suicide rate
remains significantly lower there
than in other developed countries.
Since 1960, the overall Israeli/
suicide rate has jumped from 2.75'`
to 7.5 per 100,000 population. Al-
though still far below the rate for
the United States and Europe —
in some cases less than half—
the surge in suicides, particular-
ly among the young, has Israeli
health officials, psychologists and
military commanders worried.
"Suicide is very much a middle
class phenomenon," says Dr. Gor<
don, who is a member of the
UAHC task force on teen-age sui-
cide. "It is a result of angst, de-
spair and alienation that is
relatively uncommon among peo-
ple who have to spend their lives
worrying about how to survive."
Almost all suicides are pre-
ventable, Dr. Gordon asserts in
his book. The problem, he writes,
is that many young peopl
haven't learned to cope with dis-
appointment. "We are a society
that's into instant gratification,"
he writes. "If (people) feel bad,
