Attention College Students: 'Come and Bring a Friend" By Mickey Gerellek Omaha—"It Isn't etfsy to- be a college student home for the gummer." Tliis was the view of a number of returning college stu- • dents when questioned by the Jewish Press. The relief of freedom from classrooms soon gives way to boredom. Some students seek refuge in summer school studies; some hold down summer jobs; but most feel the void of separation from their friends on campus. While all agree "it's nice to be part of the family again," many students miss the social and intellectual stimulation of their lives on campus. What can be done to fill (he void?
A number of those Interviewed agreed it would be fun to get-together informally with . other jWish college students "home for the summer." It would give them a chance to renew old high school friendships, and provide an opportunity "just to talk" with other members of the college set. Mibsy Brooks volunteered the use of her home at 8668 Cedar. Sunday, July 11, at 7:30 p.m. has been set for this first gettogether. All Jewish college Students are invited to come. According"to Mibsy, the evening is limited to college students, with the exception of Harold and Denlse Adler, who have been invited "just to provide some stimulus for interesting conversation." Mr* Adler is the regional director of ADL and has information about many community problems of Interest to college students. His wife has been doing some unusual work in the area of abortion counseling. Mibsy emphasizes that there will be no formal program or lecture. "Just an opportunity for kids to. spend a pleasant evening meeting and talking with interesting, people." The invitation is open to all members of the college generation, and Mibsy is urging everyone to "Come—and bring a friend."

2-Year Sentence For Roiza Palatnik
Israeli Rabbinate Assails Abortions New York (JTA)-The Israeli Chief Rabbinate has sent an appeal to Jews all over the world to avoid abortions because they are "contrary to.. Jewish religious law." A letter signed by Rabbi Akiva Gottlieb, chief secretary of the Rabbinate in Jerusalem was made available to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency by Rabbi David Hollander, vice president of the Rabbinical Alliance of America, an association of Orthodox rabbis. It reported on a conference on the problem of abortions sponsored by the Israeli Chief Rabbinate at which abortions were denounced as "the taking of human life" and "a threat to national security." The letter assailed "woman activists who, supposedly for the sake of improving the circumstances of families with many children, are urging women to , employ various means to limit their birth." The letter claimed that "white there is a struggle to bring immigrants from other countries to Israel, there is a reckless attempt to reduce the population internally."

New York (JTA)-Jewish librarian Roiza P a l a t n i k has been sentenced to two years in a regular detention camp. Jewish sources here reported that a female prosecutor, surnamed Tipunova, summed up for an hour and a half, calling Miss Palatnik a "traitor," influenced by "Zionist propaganda," who had engaged in " v e r y dangerous" activities, having distributed "anti-Soviet materials" as a member of an "ideological front" that had made use of the nature of her job to further its designs. In her 40-minute defense, 30year-old Miss Palatnik denied the charges and said the trials of Soviet.Jews were meant to intimidate Jews i n t o relinquishing their attempts to migrate to Israel. She had not been influenced by "Zionist propaganda," she'said, but by her own conscience, and would remain "strong and dignified" so as not to let down her fellow Jews. "I allowed myself the pleasure to think, which is still forbidden in the Soviet Union nowadays," she stated. The three judges deliberated five hours b e f o r e rendering their decision. R e l a t i v e s of Miss Palatnik called out: "We arc with you, Roiza. All the Jewish people are with you. We will meet in Israel." Of: ficers of the KGB (secret police) evicted the relatives from the courtroom for their outburst, the sources said.

Jewish Press Staff Has Meeting in DesMoines .Des Moines—Eighteen D e s / /' Moines persons a t t e n d e d a ' meeting last week at the Jewy ish Community Center w i t h three representatives of the Jewish Press, to discuss plans for the paper and. ideas and suggestions for improving coverage of Des Moines news. Several persons expressed a desire to h a v e m o r e Des Moines news in the P r e s s . Mickey Gerelick, editor of the paper, explained the responsibility which all members of the community share for reporting news events to the Des .Moines representative, Mrs. Harold Brown. .It was suggested that sonje Investigative reporting be done dn various community issues, and that stories be published of the proceedings of significant comrounity( programs, agency and Federation b o a r d meetings. Advertisinjg . Sylvia Wagner, advertising . manager of the. Press, explained why it is important for Des Moines firms to advertise in 'the Press. First of all, she said, such advertising b r i n g s resuits. It is directed to a night l y selective audience with a .positive attitude toward material in the Press. - • Second, it, is important for1 the Des Moines community to • give more financial support to their share of the Press. As with most papers, subscriptions cover only a fraction of the costs of publication. The number of pages per issue is directly related to the amount of advertising space sold. At present the Press must be par• tially supported by ,the Omaha Jewish Federation. Mrs. Wagner distributed ad! vertising rate cards to all present and asked for applications for tne position of Des Moines advertisinjg salesman. Press Policies Several of the policies and practices of the Press were ex-
plained. The Des Moines Jewish Welfare Federation buys a subscription for each contributing member of the Federation. Other persons may subscribe directly if they wish. There Is no charge for news items published In the Press. Deadline for submitting news to Mrs. Brown is the Friday preceding publication. She then p r e p a r e s the week's stories and mails .them so that they reach Omaha Monday morning. Her address is 4121 Eighth Place, and her telephone number Is 282-8239. The cost of making engraving plates for reproduction. of photographs is charged to the person or organization submitting the picture. This is true of Omaha and other communities as well as Des Moines. Cost of a standard one-column picture is 55.10. Larger pictures cost more, depending upon size. Several persons expressed,a -'desire for book reviews, a teen-age column, sermon reprints, and o t h e r additional features in the Press. Mrs. Gerelick explained that space limitations restrict the number of such special features that can be published. Larger advertising volume could help to alleviate this problem, she said. Des Moines persons present were Mr. and Mrs. D a v i d Bear, Ann Bucksbaum, Mrs. Phil Epstein, Stan Gruen, David Kaminsky, James Marcovis, Mrs. Richard Ofstein, Mrs. Barry P i d g e o n , Mrs. Glenn Purnell, Ed Seidenfeld, Mrs. Ben Swartz, and Mrs. Sam Vidis. Also Mrs. Brown, Lawrence Fagin, Herbert Parmet, Sandor Sherman, and Lou Williams. Attending from Omaha were Mrs. Gerelick, Mrs. Wagner, and Mort Greenberg, executive director of .the Jewish Federation,of Omaha.

Letter to Washington OMAHA PUBLIC SCHOOLS Two articles pertaining to the Omaha Public Schools by Mr. Adler which appeared - in ihz July 2, 1971 Jewish Press •re of such nature that I cannot remain silent. If J did, it Would appear I concur and condone Mr. Adler's opinions. Firstly, I've worked for the Omaha Public Schools thirtythree years. At no time has my absence for the Holy Days b e e n questioned nor has my request to be absent denied. Mr. Adler's closing statement "should any.difficulty arise contact Harold filler" smacks of arrogance and ignorance. Secondly, the opinions expressed by Mr. Adler in his ADL Notes need clarification. Because a person meets the , qualifications for a po s i t i o n does not automatically guarantee that this will assure that the person will be successful in that position. It would be most interesting to know just what valid information Mr. Adler has regarding events and' issues t h a t transpired that made it necessary for Mr. Chambers to have • a hearing. The comparison.by Mr. Adler of the My Lei Trial and Mr. Chambers' Hearing is far fetched. It certainly gives one a feeling of a lack of credibility on Mr. Adler's part. It also makes me question if Mr. Adler can distinguish between a hearing and a trial. I'm most curious, to know •with whom Mr. Adler has talked. Has he talked with any or all present board members of the Omaha Public Schools, tlio administration, or has his conversation been with that small group who aje anti-0 m a h a Public School? .What does Mr. Adler know about the communications that have transpired between Mr. Chambers and the Omaha Public Schools? Of course, Professional Ethics must be adhered to by the O m a h a P u b 1 i c Schools, but everyone else can have a "field day" with ethical procedure. I am making a most earnest plea to Mr. Adler and any Interested member of the Omaha Community to
make a concerted effort to visit our schools to witness the innovative i d e a s and practices that are going on to help boys and girls. It would be most enlightening for Mr. Adler to find that our schools are anything but 50 years behind time. Everyone's whim and fancy ideas cannot be implemented. The questions to be asked are:' "What is best for the child" and "What will the community be willing to pay." I fervently pray that we get all the facts and really know what they are before stating an opinion as the gospel truth. One's opinions are only as valid as one's inforamtion. This takes time and the truth is not as dramatic as a "half-truth." It appears the ADL has completed its work so Mr. Adler must create problems ana distrust to keep his agency going. In my opinion, witch hunting surely has no place in-the ADL. Ida Gitlin DRUG PROBLEM "What can I do about the drug problem?" is perhaps the most frequent question* heard today, not only in Omaha, but all across the United States. One answer, among many, is to be informed. A Youth Workshop on Drugs for high school and college, students will be held on July 22 to 25 at the Nebraska Center for Continuing Education, University of Nebraska, Lincoln. Featured speaker will be John Luce, public affairs director of the Haight-Ashbury .Clinic, San Francisco, One of the-planners for the event is Bren Buckley of Lincoln, a spring graduate of Lincoln Southeast H i g h School. She is secretary of the N e b r a s k a Commission on Drugs and was recently named to the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse. The Workshop is open to all youth from the State of Nebraska and I would suggest that any youth in the Jewish Community, either as an individual, or as a representative of a youth group, attend this innovative session.
