The group will cross back to Israel via Eilat and the shores of the Red Sea for Shab- bat dinner. Tour-goers can attend Shab- bat services in a Reform synagogue before boarding the bus the next day for Tel Aviv and the trip back to Detroit. For Orbach and Dubov and the families and congregants accompanying them on their journey, the birthday cel- ebration provides not only a link to Judaic roots, but also a source for recognition of American Jews. "Reform cantors are having a con- cert there and making a statement to the Israelis to bring a certain level of dignity and recognition to the Reform movement," said Dubov. "There are 24 Reform congregations now in Israel," added Orbach. "The idea of bringing the congregations to Israel is the important thing. Israel thrives on tourism and needs us to be there to show support and enthusiasm on its 50th anniversary, and to make it a cultural activity in a very historic time." ❑ Reservations Reservations for the trip must be made by May 15.

Because those women won't practice breast self-examination regularly. Those women, particularly those over 35, won't ask their doc- tor about a mammogram. Yet that's what's required for breast cancer to be detected early. When the cure rate is 90%. And when there's a good chance it won't involve the loss of a breast. But no matter what it involves, take it from someone who's been through it all. Life is just too wonderful to give up on. And, as I found out, you don't have to give up on any of it. Not work, not play. not even romance. Oh. there is one thing, though. You do have to give up being afraid to take care of yourself. AMERICAN V CANCER SOCIETY' Get a checkup. Life is worth it.
