Fund Honors
Local Teacher
Students of the late Joseph Hag-
gai plan to honor the Hebrew
teacher's memory with the cre-
ation of a fund for a scholarly
seminar at the Hebrew Univer-
sity.
Mr. Haggai, who taught at the
United Hebrew Schools from the
1920s to the 1950s, was respected
for his dedication to Hebrew ed-
ucation, devotion to Israel and
knowledge of Hebrew language
and literature. Encouraged by
Mr. Haggai, a number of his stu-
dents made aliyah.
A lifelong Labor Zionist, he
lived on Kibbutz Ein Hashofet
briefly during the 1950s. His son
Yirmiyahu was a founder of Ein
Hashofet and later was editor of
the Mapam Party newspaperAl
Hamishmar.
Norman Katz, David Mondry
and William Schumer, students
of Mr. Haggai's in the late 1930s,
are leading the effort to establish
the fund.
For information, call Mr.
Schumer, (313) 873-5980. Checks
should be made out to American
Friends of the Hebrew Univer-
sity and sent to Mr. Schumer at
1016 E. Palmer, Detroit, MI
48211.
