THE MICHIGAN DAILY
County Juvenile Home Officials Quit Jobs
Supervisors of the County Juve-
nile Home, Elwyn C. Tennant and
his wife Beatrice, resigned Friday.
The supervisors had been ac-
cused of allegedly countermanding
orders of Jacob E. Terpstra, super-
intendent of the home. A series of'
tiffs and "personality conflicts"
were fanned into the open three
imonths ago, according to Probate
Judge John W. Conlin. ,
Hired last June, the Tennants
were on six months probationary
employment. During this time,
Judge Conlin said the home was
kept in the best condition it has
been in since it opened in March,
1956.
Judge Conlin and Juvenile Divi-
sion Director Frank J. Hodges
"strongly recommended to the
Tennants that they resign." Com-
plaints from juveniles that the
Tennants were too strict" were
also blamed.
The complaints of the juveniles
were discounted, however, until
hearings were held. The Tennants
agreed to such hearings, but Judge
Conlin said hearings would not
alter the personality conflicts be-
tween the couple and Terpstra.
The Tennants were reported to
have left the city Friday with two
weeks advanced pay and a "very
good" letter of recommendation.
They filled the vacancy leftl
after Mr. and Mrs. Morris Rubin-
stein resigned as supervisor and
matron of the home.

Reconstruetion
Of Synagogue-
BERLIN MA) -- West Germany
erases another scar of the Nazi era
todayi
On the site of a Berlin synagogue
destroyed by Hitler's storm troop-
ers on "Crystal Night" 19 years
ago, the new Germany will begin
construction of a new Jewish com-
munity center.
The synagogue was one of hun-
dreds put to the torch on Crystal
Night, Nov. 10, 1938,, as,. storm
troopers ragedthrough scores of
German cities. The night got its
name because of the great quanti-
ties of glass underfoot from ruined
synagogues and wrecked Jewish
shops.
On Berlin's Fasanenstrasse that
night, jeering Nazis held back
firefighters -as Germany's largest
synagogue became a twisted,
blacked shell.
Today, West German officials
will lay there the cornerstone of
a building dedicated to Germany's
once-persecuted Jews.
a member of SGC would serve this
purpose.
Against Direct System
Council president Joe Collins,
358, came out against Jo Hardee's
suggested direct system. He said
such a move was unfeasible and
uneffective.
He does not want to see the
Council expanded either. He said
the present size is just right for
a group which had to work to-
gether to accomplish things.
He also said, that with member-
ship at its present size, each pei-
son fills the full responsibility
of his taks, and therefore acts in
a 'most mature manner.
However, Collins said that he
would like to see an investigation
into the possibility of adding a
foreign student and a graduate
student to the Council.
Not Properly Represented
He. said that neither Iof these
groups is properly represented and
could bring a great deal to the
Council.
- Some people said that the size
is not the problem of representa-
tion, but rather the -people who
are elected.
Bert Getz, '59BAd., who is also
Inter-Fraternity Council secretary,
said that affiliated people should
be well represented on SOC. This
is one area, he explained, that has
not been well represented in the
past.
"It's through my duty to the
affiliated system that I'm run-
ning," he said. He is not in favor
of expanding the Council.
