But by Monday morning, two congregants and a carpenter had already straightened the bent frame of the 16 x 16-foot struc- ture; the sukkah was rebuilt by Monday afternoon. Young Israel of Southfield Rabbi Elimelech Goldberg called the incident "isolated," blaming it on children who couldn't resist the temptation to vandalize something so "vulnerable." Con- struction in and around the shul resulted in the placement of the sukkah further away from the Lahser Road building, at the far north end of the parking lot. The lot is separated from the schoolyard of Adlai Stevenson El- ementary School by a chain-link fence. The rabbi discovered the dam- age Sunday evening. He believes it happened sometime between 1 and 7 p.m. that day, just hours after the sukkah went up. It had not yet been festooned with tra- ditional holiday decorations. • "We had an incident 12 years ago with several cars in the park- ing lot. Within two days, police caught a group of young boys who were just having fun, and they were appropriately pun- ished. We don't anticipate any further problems. It's a rare in- cident, thank God," Rabbi Gold- berg said. Southfield Police Chief Joseph E. Thomas said the vandalism was most likely the work of neighborhood youths, much like C other acts of property destruction in Southfield. "I think it was kids playing around. We get a lot of that now," he said. Three times in the past nine months, he said, windows have been broken at the former B'nai David synagogue on Southfield Road. Suspects in at least one of the incidents were juveniles who were arrested and prosecuted. The building, now owned by the city of Southfield, is undergoing renovations and will be used as a new city arts center. Martin Lowenberg, a congre- gant who helped pound out bent frames and reinstall the large blue panels of the sukkah Mon- day, remarked that it is impossi- ble to prevent such vandalism. 'We'd like to take security pre- cautions, but we can't be here 24 hours a day," he said. "We cer- tainly hope we never have to wor- ry about it again." Congregation President Allen Ishakis was baffled on Monday about the incident. "When you don't begin to know who did it, you don't want to point fingers. You'd like to think it wasn't religiously motivated. I'd like to think it was kids fooling around." Southfield Police Lt. Ted Quisenberry said on Monday that he had no information about pos- sible suspects or even whether the incident will be investigated. Sukkot, a holiday that com- memorates the Israelites' jour- ney through the desert after leaving Egypt, begins on Mon- day. The Sukkah symbolizes the temporary shelters the travelers constructed.

T 7 f• • unions walked out close to three months ago. Less than half the staffs at both newspapers have since returned to work. The Jewish strikers served by Yad Ezra are members of the newspapers' production staffs. They receive a meager weekly stipend from their unions. "They are clients for as long as the strike is on," Ms. Goldman said. ► TYI 1 1_ • n •
