Can you name a kosher fish that supposedly tastes
like pork and a kosher meat that tastes like cheese?

A hearing in the Jewish Academy of
Metropolitan Detroit's court case
against the Michigan High School
Athletic Association was postponed
last week in Oakland County Circuit
Court.
Because of the death of the father of
the JAMD's attorney, Steven Z.
Cohen, the hearing was postponed
until Wednesday, Oct. 20.

membership application for 2004-
2005 because JAMD asked for excep-
tions to the association's requirement
for total acceptance of scheduling.
The MHSAA schedules state tourna-
ments on Saturdays and Jewish holi-
days, among other dates.

There were no eulogies at graveside, in accor-

man and because it is customary not to deliver
eulogies during the Sukkot season.
