A program is being planned for the Youth Council rally on Sunday, May 6 at the Assembly Hail of the Civic auditorium.
[tees! Boy Explorers The call is out for fellows who like to hike and rove to fill out the Explorers Club that meets each Sunday afternoon at the Jewish Community Center from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. The group leaves the Center and is transported to places of interest via station wagon and then on foot. The fee for the series of Sunday sessions is $2 with registration being accepted at the Center either by phone or in person at the sessions. Future exploring sessions will take boys to Fontenelle Forest, Blair, Nebraska, fossil excavntions near Plattsmouth and other sites of unusual interest.
Wo Jews who are free must act now. No one can predict how long the Exit Gates may be open. We cannot, therefore, let pass this fateful hour for the deliverance of our pcopfc f r o m DARKNESS into LIGHT— the light of liberty which you and wo enjoy. Rescue of Our People This task of redemption and rebuilding of lives requires greater giving on our part—greater giving of money, time, energy, and love. But the rescue of our people from distressed areas of the world is not our only responsibility. Our J e w i s h P h i I a n t hropics Campaign covers local, national and overseas needs. We appeal for a most generous response to the Jewish Philanthropies Campaign. And above all, wo need tremendous sums for the Redemption of Jews who are now Captives in lands of oppression. We must make that response— not later when it will bo too late, hut now, when the new EXODUS is taking place. Robert M. Fcinherg General Campaign Chairman Isadora M.
