Question of the Week: Can you name the physicist who, at
37, won the 1922 Nobel Prize — a remarkable feat at the time,
since virtually none of the awards were given to young men?

metro Detroiters
won't need an El Al
plane ticket, nor will
they have to convert their cur-
rency to shekels to enjoy a slice
of Israel.
All they need is to venture to the Eugene and Marcia
Applebaum Jewish Community Campus, Maple and
Drake, West Bloomfield.
That is because the Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan Detroit, along with the Jewish News, the
Jewish Community Center of Metropolitan Detroit,
the Michigan/Israel Connection, the Jewish
Experiences for Families (JEFF) and others, are co-
sponsoring JerusaleMania, a six-hour event featuring a
solidarity walk and an Israel celebration fair.
While the name is new, the happening is not. In fact,
it is a melding of two events that have gone on sepa-
rately for at least the last 20 years.
IsraelFest, featuring the Solidarity March for Israel
and family-oriented activities, this year joins the JCC's
Culture Shuk,.a gathering that featured an Israeli open
market-type atmosphere.
JerusaleMania co-chair Dr. Irvin Kappy said the
event is perhaps more important this year, when bombs
are exploding and tensions are rising in Israel, than in
past years, when there was peace in the country. The
walk, missing from last year's event, held in Oak Park,

will return to this year's JerusaleMania for that reason.
"I think there will be great interest in the event this
year. Israel is certainly besieged from all sides and can
use our support during this crisis," Kappy said. "We
often take Israel for granted, and this [event] is a reason
to celebrate. The walk will show our solidarity and sup-
port for Israel and our hope for peace in the region."
As with past years, when Israel experienced height-
ened problems with its neighbors, extra security meas-
ures have been taken to assure the safety of participants,
Kappy said. In addition to West Bloomfield Police
presence, arrangements have been made with the local
Arab and Chaldean communities to assure a peaceful
event, he added.
"We have been in close contact with the Arab and
Chaldean leaders and we have good neighborly rela-
tions with the rest of the community," Kappy said.
Making a 20-year-old event new and exciting was
