Memorial Dedicated In Hungary BUDAPEST, (JTA) - A huge and impoaing memorial to Jewish martyrs was recently inaugurated in (he city of Balaasagyarmat, Hungary's oldest Jewish community, on the occasion of the 30(h anniveraary of the deportations. The ceremony In this northern city close to the Czechoslovakian border drew a large number of fuaala, many of whom had come from a* far away as the United SUtes and Australia. The nuin speaker at the event was Hungarian Chief Rabbi Lastio Salgo, who lauded Hungarian Jews for their devotion to the Jewish community as well as their continuing palriolism to their country. The memorial service was a particularly meaningful one for Rabbi Salgo — many members of his family were deported from Balaasagyarmat and some are buried there. Representatives of the Hungarian Catholic, Lutheran and Reformed churches also a(teoded the ceremony. RABBI 8CHACHTER NAMED NEW YORK - Rabbi Stanley J. Schachter has been named a vk;e-chancellor of The Jewish Theological Seminary of America.

Jews were right alongside Christian pioneers in the opening and devekipment of (he west. Jewish pioneers could often be found in the earliest trading poaU and frontier villages. A Jew arrived in Chicago as early as 1837. In Iowa territory, the first known Jew came to Dubwgue around 1836. There were 40 or 90 Jews in SI. Louis before 1844. And when Des Moines was called Raccoon Forks and there were fewer than 20 white inhaUtanU, a Jew by the name of William Krause could be counted In that number.. During the middM of the 19th century, German Jews began to penetrate the interior of the United Stales. The largest group settled earliest in CincbmaU. In general. German Jews were part of the larger group of German immigrants who found homes in (he Midwest. By and large, the German Jews were on their own, as there were no synagogues or Jewish organizations waiting to help them. They had to create (heir own.

A board meeting is scheduled by the Henty Monsky B'nai B'rith Lodge women's division for 11 a.m. Oct. 10 at the Dixie Kitchen, 78th and Dodge Streets.
t A. The F^ur Species of Sukkot (which thit year begin* on pciober 1) are four different plants which form an obligatory ^rt of the rite according to the biblical commandment, "And irt shall Uke you on the first day (of Sukkot) the fruit of goodly toves, branches of palm trees, and boughs of thick trees, and Mkms of the brook, and ye shall rejoice before the Lord your pod seven days." (L«v. 23:40) : The special Sukkah comes from the enjoinder "Ye shaU |weU in booths for seven days." (lev. 23:42) The Encyctopaedla IMalca reminds us, Sukkot means "booths" or "tabernacles."
The group's regular monthly meeting will follow at 12:30 p.m. A policewoman will speak on "Safely and Security in the Home."
Two ef tke syeeles are given eipUclly: Ike "branches of ElB trees" are the IJIUV. aad Ihe "willows of Ihe brook" Ike avot. TradlUon bas •niversally idenUned two olhers as !^»Ms ef Ike goodly trees" or EIrog, a citrus frail, sad Ihe |«ko«gks ef Ihkk trees" or Hadasslm. myrtle. The four species are made up of three sprigs of myrtle and laro of willow, which are bound to the Udav with strips of palm. Hiev are held in the right hand and the Etrog is held separately p me left. During Ihe Temple period, Ihe main ceremony using the ^r species took place in the Temple. They were waved in a prescribed manner: toward Ihe east, south, west, north, upVard and downward, in acknowledgement of divine rule over palure. , After the Musaf sacrifice of the day had been offered, the bur species were again taken, this lime in proccMioo around be altar while Psalms were chanted. V The popularity of the ceremony during the period of the Ijiotad Temple is reflected in the fact that Hanukkah was lllebrated by the Maccabees as a second Feast of Tabernacles. ' Thca there was Ike btcMeat la which the vast Ikraag of Mrshlppcrs In the Temple pelted King Alexaner Yannal with kefar Etrsglm during Ihr feilival as an eipretsioa of protest, kc aathoriUlive Eacychipaedhi Jadaica stales. The remarkable hold which Ihe four specie* had on the wnliments of the people during Ihe Second Temple period, and bimediately afterward, is evidenced by the fact that even luring the rigors of war. Bar Kokhba took special care to see iwt his warriors were supplied with them. In the Bible no attempt is made to explain the symbolism of ke four qMdes. They probably symbolised the fertility of the Ind u evidmeed in the harvest Just concluded, and for future fto6 yield*. There are a number of moral and homiletic interpretations in the Midrash and by kabbalistic symbolism. * Plutarch wrote an interesting description of Sukkot during |be OrMc diaspora and the end of Ihe first and the beginning of it secoi)d century C.E. ; At the tiaie, Ike noa-Jews of Alexandria and Rome alleged kat Ihe cult of Dhmysas, tke Greek god of wine and (ertUlty. Es widespread amoag Jews. Plutarch gives the followfaig eckaaallaa bilerpretation ta Ike festival: "After the festival called ihe fas!' (the Day of Atonement), taring the Wntage, the Jews place tables laden with different hilts in booths of thickets woven from vines and ivy. Their .. tival... one may simply call a Bacchanalian festival. For It a fwllval on which the Jews carry fig branches and ttcks adorned with Ivy and carry them into the Temple. One BMnot know what they do In Ihe Temple. II stems reasonable I suppose that they practice riles in honor of Bacchus. For ley bh>w small horns as the people of Argos do during the iHival of Dionysus, and call upon their god." . The famous historian Tacilus also wrongly thought that •ws served the. god Liber, I.e. Bacchus-Dionysus, bul Irhereas the festival of Uber U joyful, the Jewish festival of Jber is sordid and absurd." Sukkot begins on the iSlh day of the month of Tishri and bmmemorates the dwellings in which the Children of Israel jrvived in Ihe wilderness after Ihe Exodus. The festival lasts for seven days. The eighth day after Mikol Is the festival of SheminI Azeret. Work is forbidden on fe first day of Sukkot and on the eighth day, Shemini Azerel, Kording to Lev. 23:35.

Hadassah Woman |p Of The Year Introduction by Mrs. Ruth Jacobson How commendable of HadaiMh, with iU title of Woman of ' the Year, (o bestow distinction, and alsa to say to a iMder: \ "Thanlc you for all that we liave received from you, and for all ^ the ways in whicli we have been enriched by you". I Today we delight in our distinction of having as our boooree I a cherished member who has served so many other causes. I Thomas Carlyie's famous saying, "The history of the worid is I but t))f biograpby of^ts great incn" "I'y ^ paraphrased — the 1 hiaUvy <4 Qw.MoiMi Je,wry is the Mograpby of lU leaders. I ' AiBoig Uieaeleadarsia Rebecca Nuasbaum. She has made I Hadoiiafa a j»eraaBaI qiftter, She not only followed the pattern lot Uadasaaii goals, site cnated opportunities to serve the cause of Hadasaah and of Israel. It is this pers4Mul attitiidc of ben which seU Iwr apart. She ase* her sliUI, hilcttigeMe nt eaer(y with dcdkaliwi aad , JmagiBali—• She recognises that the way to get leadership is through ' leadership. She has been quick to set the example herself, and then to recognize polenlial leadership in others, to foster it, to nurture it, to thrust these women forward, giving them opportunities for creative leadership expresskm. Intellectually and emotionally and spiritually Jewish, forthright not only in her exuberant acceptance of Judaism and Jewishaeaa, with seal she has exposed her Christian neighbors . to the Ideeb of Jewish living. Her annual seder suppers have provided this experience for educators and public servants. She has invited them to cotmtleai synagogue services. Her children and her grandchildren are not only a reflection of her Jewish thinking, they are torcfabearers themselves, avowedly dedicated to pursue the ideals inctilcated in them by her example and that of her husband, Louis Nussbaum. Do as I say; do as I do — this is their family molto.8hc has served » preiideat •( the Jewisli Women's Fe4eraUoa, the Hebrew Scbool AaxUlary. She was chabiaaB of the Womea's Divlsioo of the L'nited Jewish Appeal. She has heM offices in the Tifereth Israel's Women's League, the Temple Sisterhood, B'nai Brith Women, the Women's Auxiliary of the Iowa Jewish Home, the Women's Committee of Brandeis University. To say that she has served as president of Hadassah is to give meager description of her dedicated service. The enumeration of other offices in other organizations does not ddineate her countless and noteworthy taaks dictated by ' community needs — nor does this enumeration describe her ^•dfletMMas. r\ttA with leal for the cause at hand, never seeking honor for herself, site always bestows honor on others. 11 is to our esteem, and my privilege, to confer the title of .Hadassah's Woman of the Year on a fellow worker who has helped to give our lives purpose and direction; HEBECCA NUSSBAUM.

daapair, we laamed of the tarrible slaughter of the Jews in Germany .,. And now the wonder of Hadassah took hold. From ohe woman's dream — Henrietta Stold — grew a monument of human concern. As a member of Hadassah and as a fellow Jew, I too became worried and concerned about the children In Europe, and the problem of bow to save them as well as how to save the survivors of Ihe concentration camps. To my great satiafaction, I found dedicated women who inWhea Dorathy aad Rose asked me t* accept tke prealdaacy, I kaew what lay ahead: work, warry and chaleagc.

TEENS - ITS YOUR TURN Only three days have pasted since release of my message to adults In laat week's Preas; already reaponses are coining in — not from adults, (hough — from VOU. Along with the poalUve raaetloaa some p( ycu are tapraailiig, I hear some bssk questiona asked. "Why did you hsve to be the one to •peak (or us? Where have we been all Ihia time?" Thaae questions are Important. They signal an awakening among some of you; a realiiation that you have.been quiet too long ... conspicuous, yet silent. You are beginning to understand that your right to selfdeterminstion was not taken sway from you — It was given up. There were tiaet, sad a«( !•• laag ago. whea lecaafen HMIK set failclligeatly tad respoatibly, aad ware Hateaed la aad respected ky peers aad adults alike.

^Tom somewhere in the dtalant past, the adage has been banded down that "children should be seen, and nqt heard." It would seem that today's youth feels comfortable with that saying. Con«ct me if I'm wrong, but isn't apathy more prevaleat today than it ever waa? Some of your leadera think so. Above all, I want to asa a strong, united Jewish youth community, one in which all members are encouraged to partie^te and enabled to make a worthwhile conIribution. I want to see every member of cur youth community, amiiated or not. able lo achieve recognition and acceptance on his or her own tarma. As for our organised youth gruupa, the time has come for each lo reaped the other's right to exist and fulfiU lU obJecUves; snd for all, collectively, to atrive together for common Jewiah
goala.
The task is yours to become swsre of your own powers and how to uae tliem wisely for your own benefit, and for the good of others. This question is yours to anawer: Do you care enough about regaining a significant leadership role hi the Jewish community? Reaponses to this srtlcle are welcomed either in person, by phone (SM-<aoo, ext. IS), or by mail (to nie, c-o JOC, 331 So. 181 St., Omaha, Nebr., HIM).

aVGARYJAVITCII JCC AOUATICS DIRECTOR The Jewifn Community Center indoor pool is the place lo be every Thursday afternoon for a dozen handicapped persons, all of whom are partially paralyzed stroke victims. The therapeutic effect of the warm water enables them to exercise muscles which on Und would be stiff, if not immotMle. Most participants are nonswimmers. In fact, without the aid of the instructor*— who work with each person individually—none of the stroke patients would be able to swim at all.
Because these patients are getting out and being active, they feel the program is very valuable The program started last year at the old JCC. The staff is entirely volunteers who donate an hour each week. These assistants are Center members. JCC Aquatics Department staffers and Westslde High School student*. Persons interested in volunteering should contact me, Gary Javitch, at the JCC (334-8200). The more staff we have available, the more stroke vicOms we can accomodate.
