A century of political participation,
the attitude of Henry Ford II toward
Israel, recollections
of Depression-era
sports and the cel-
ebration of the
40th anniversary
of Congregation
Beit Kodesh are
among the articles
in the latest edi-
tion of Michigan
Judith Levin
Jewish History, the
Cantor
annual journal
published by the
Jewish Historical Society of
Michigan (JHS).
This issue, which also celebrates
the 40th anniversary of the JHS,
marks the work of a new editor,
Aimee Ergas. A JHS member for
eight years, Ergas succeeds Judith
Levin Cantor, a former JHS presi-
dent, who has curated historical
exhibitions at museums in Michigan.
"I think we cover a wide variety
of topics, and I find the book sec-
tion very satisfying because I'm a
book person," says Ergas, former
assistant editor for the Institute for
Continuing Legal Education.
"The journal is an amazing publi-
cation considering that it is put
together through the knowledge,
wisdom, time and effort of volunteer
writers, historians and aficionados of
local Jewish history."
U.S. District Court Judge Avern
Cohn, of the Eastern District of
Michigan, traces political activity
from the 1850s to the 1950s. In
another article, Alan Kandel, a
member of the History and Archives
Committee of the Jewish Federation
of Metropolitan Detroit, details the
initiatives of Henry Ford II in coun-
tering the anti-Semitic acts of his
grandfather.
The issue also presents articles
about a school named for a Jewish
journalist, recent achievements of
Jewish leaders, including Joel Tauber
and Peggy Daitch, and new books
with religious themes.
"We have many sources for sub-
jects, and we do a certain amount of
detective work," Ergas says.
Copies of Michigan Jewish History
are distributed to members of the
Jewish Historical Society of
Michigan and area libraries.

tions, call (248) 661-7706.
