"Great work
Gittleman"

wing with the dirt and disruption produced

L by a renovation or addition to your house

and baths as well as recreate the family room in their
Franklin home.

"We lived through this ftom April to September
and it couldn't have been easier," Wendy said. "They
kept right on schedule and within budget, and the
quality was outstanding. To top it off, they were
incredibly neat."

So, if you're planning to remodel or add-on, but fear
the chaos, call Gittleman. With an emphasis on function, aesthetics and budget, the Gittleman team is
committed to producing total satisfaction and enduring value with the least amount of aggravation.

Just ask the Hamburgers.

School Slur Leads
To Shoah Event

t the suggestion of a Jewish sev-
enth-grader who was the target
of an ethnic slur last month,
the Lincoln Public Schools in Ypsilanti
will plan a Holocaust memorial obser-
vance next year.
Mitchell Goldsmith asked to speak to
the Lincoln Board of Education on June
3. In his prepared remarks, Goldsmith
told the board, "The reason I am pro-
posing this is because I have heard sev-
eral anti-Semitic slurs having to do with
my religion or things like the
Holocaust, and I have had some said to
my face just because I am Jewish."
Eighth-graders at the school visit the
Holocaust Memorial Center in West
Bloomfield, Principal Lynn Cleary
told the school board. She said the slur
used against Goldsmith was an isolat-
ed incident and the school does not
have a hostile environment towards
Jews and other minorities. Cleary dis-
ciplinedthe student who used the slur.
While Goldsmith said the only
other Jew he knew at the school was
his brother, there are actually a few
more Jews in the student body.
Lincoln superintendent Al Wider
pledged to coordinate the Holocaust
observance and board president Tommy
Burdette asked for guidance from the
Goldsmith family for the event.

New Americans
Raise Israel Funds

Ea

embers of the Association of
Jewish-Russian Veterans of
World War II, the Anti-
Fascist Committee of Metropolitan
Detroit and the Literary and Musical
Group of Metro Detroit presented a
$12,000 check this month to the
Israel Emergency Campaign of the
Jewish Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit.
The New American groups — most-
ly senior citizens from the former
Soviet Union who are on fixed
incomes — raised the funds through
contributions and programs during the
last year. The veterans group has 300
members, with the youngest age 75.
Federation's agencies and the
American Jewish Joint Distribution
Committee helped most of the members
come to and settle in the Detroit area.
The most recent program was held
May 28 at Congregation Beth Shalom
in Oak Park. It featured poetry and

.

music dedicated to Memorial Day,
and raised $700. The program was
organized by Vladimir and Irma
Kapitulsky, and Boris and Emma
Maidanchik. The president of the vet-
erans group is Arkady Okgeyber.

`Broken' Window
Really An Illusion

s

taff of Keter Torah Synagogue
have received more than a dozen
phone calls from concerned citi-
zens, informing them of what appears
to be a broken stained-glass window at
their building that's under construction.
The window wasn't actually broken.
"What people are seeing," says Susan
Alspector, corresponding secretary, "is
just a piece of cardboard left over from
the installation of the window, taped
over a small section in the center."
Ongoing work on the building will
soon include the removal of one piece
of deceptive cardboard. The expected
completion date for the Sephardic syn-
agogue is September, in time for use
on the High Holidays.
The public may tour the Keter
Torah building going up northwest of
Walnut Lake and Orchard Lake roads,
at 4:30 p.m. Sunday, June 23. The
program begins at Congregation
Shaarey Zedek B'nai Israel Center and
then will move to Keter Torah.
"This is a great opportunity for the
community to meet our new rabbi,"
says Rick Behar, member of Keter
Torah Synagogue's board of directors.
Rabbi Michael Cohen will begin his
position here Aug. 1. Artist Alex Gruss,
designer of Keter Torah's interior, also
will be on hand during the tour.

Corrections

• The "Delicious Legacies" article
by Annabel Cohen (June 7, page
95) should have indicated that
Ceil Pear, in whose honor the
kitchen at the Jewish Community
Center in Ann Arbor is dedicated,
is still living. She recently celebrat-
ed her 90th birthday.

• "Icing On The Cake" (June 14,
page 35) should have indicated
that Malke Torgow and David
Morris chaired the JCC's birthday
bash and family carnival on June 9
in Oak Park.
