OMAHA - Vou say you "haven't been Involved much" In the Jewish Federation of Omaha? That's no reason for you to stay away from the annual ftieeting of the Federation this Sunday night, says Harlan J.

"This meeting is for everytwdy, regardless of what they have or haven't done In the past." he emphasized in extending the Invitation to the Jewish community The iiMiallin wm Indude pwawfatlon ol qtedal awanh, rqpofts by liw rederaitai pnaidaatandiiewenaithwdlrMlar.andUM amnal aiacilao «(oMccn and board nMnban. It will be followed by a reception for the new exec and his wife, Mr and Mrs Lou Solomon. All activities are to begin at 7:30 p.m. (Feb. 1) at the Jewish Community Center. To clear up any confusion over who "belongs" to the Federation, Noddle cited the bylaws which state that a member is any Jewish person who makes a contribution to Philanthropies And that includes more than two thousand Omahans, he said. "This is everyone's chance to find out what's going on In the Federation — how the Federation, which is made up of thstr-iaUow Jews, is trying to meet the needs of, and {ilan for, the entire Omaha Jewish community," Noddle said. "It's aiao ao o|i|)attunlty for Ita total Jewish community to 810 wbo Its Ptdmtkia oMoen are, and to tan ttm what ItMgr Uke and don't UlDB about wtiat baa or haaat bsan done.

By Rlcbanl Pearl OMAHA — Do you remember when the Dr. Philip Sher Home for the Aged opened? Or when the Omaha Jewish Community was asked to absorb some 75 families — and the Jewish Federation t>ought a building to help accomplish the task? Perhaps, too. you rememlier wtien campaigning was conducted statewide by Omaha rabbis and lay leaders to help raise money for the fledgling State of Israel?

Rice was the Sher Home's first chairman after it opened; he was Federation president when Holocaust refugees came en masse and it was he who went statewide with the rabbis to campaign for infant Israel. The years were roughly 1948 through 1951, when Joe finished his second one-year term as Federation president. In recognition of his numerous efforts and contributions on behalf of the Jewish community here, the Jewish Federation will honor him this Sunday evening with its first 25th Anniversary Award. The award is planned as an annual honor to each former Federation president as he reaches his "Silver Anniversary" year, according to .Executive Director Lon Solomon. Rice It the aenkr member of tliat elite groiq) of men who are itlll living here. There have been 13 otben elected Federatkm president since then; of tboae, 10 ttill teskle In Omaha. Rice is today a healthy and active 75 — he plays volleyball with friends twice weekly at the JCC. Community-wise, he's chairman of the Gifts Committee at the Dr. Sher Home, most recently raising funds to redecorate its chapel; he's a member of the Federation's Coordinating Committee on Aging (C(X)A) and a board member of the Eastern Nebraska Office on Aging (ENOA), an outgrowth of his appointment to Mayor Zorinsky's Committee on Aging. And Joe also was among the organizers of the Center's Old-Tlmers group. His involvement in Jewish community life was sparked back In the 1920s, around the time the old JCC was constructed at 20th and Dodge. Joe's sense of tiedakih came from his parents who, he says, were always generous toward the bearded students and other travelers who stap|)ed at their door. But seeing first-hand the Omaha Jewish community actively tMillding and doing — as exemplified by the JCC cornerstone-laying ceremony back then — quickened his desire to lielong and to contrit)ute. "I was at the cornerstone-laying," Joe recalled. He taya only that he "took an Intereat" In what waa happening. iMcauae thoaa were difficult days for him. He wea in the proceaa of building hit own buiineaB — GUn-O-Ltc, a liveatock feed firm. He had pledged an amoint to the JCC (Continued on Paee 3)

"At that Ume I could not get over into Old Jerusalem because Jordan controlled it. All we could do was look through a periscope and see the soldiers with tommyguns patrolling the area. "That really exasperates me, because if anyone is racist, Jordan sure showed Its colors there." He went' again to Israel in 1973, as Cash Chairman after the Yom Kippur War By then, he could easily visit Old Jerusalem. "It was a traumatic experience for me as I stood at that Wall and wondered how many of my forefathers had done the same thing and how many others hadn't been allowed to."

But, "after we were 'over the hump', I t>ecame active in community activities." At Beth Ei Synagogue, he held aU the offices, including the presidency (1945-46). Before that, he had been Federation Philanthropies chairman (1943). AtxNit two year! aft6r his Beth Ei presidency, he got caught up in the excitement of the creation of the State of Israel. He notes that, alter Its birth, "some people here wanted Nebraska to establish Nachalat Israel (agricultural settlement) in Israel, through the Jewish National Fund, maybe." So he, together with such Omaha rabtris as Leiyveld, Goldstein and Mowshowitz, travelled around the state "and raised $25,000." But there was a coafllct wltb PUlanttira|iies and the money was turned over to tbe United Jewlili Appeal, iw Mid. During those yean, Joe was also the area chairman of the Zionist Organization of America. "It was an interesting time People were interested in the founding of the new state," he said. It was in 1948 that Joe became the first chairman of the newly opened Dr. Sher Home. He resigned that post to become Federation president (1949), succeeding Milton Livingston. Ttiat year Joe took a check for $150,000 to the United Jewish Appeal meeting in Washington, D.C. The check symbolized Omaha's pledge to raise that amount.

A big house, located around the comer ^'om the JCC on Capitol Street, was purchased by the Federation, refurbished and made Into a home for IB refugee families. Other families were placed elsewhere In tlie city in one-room apartments. In the two years of Omatia's "New Americans" program, Rice told the 1952 Federation meeting, some 197 Individuals had been settled here — the highest ratio per capita in the United States. As tbe families found work, they paid a' 'nominal fee" to the Federation to help offset the expenses Incurred by their resettlement, Ite said. Today, ttiBt hWorie houae on C^ittoi If oo longBr.

Their search was generally within a lOD-mile radius of Omaha, but it Included some sites In western Iowa, too, he said. By the end of Joe's second term as president, the city's rabbis were brought Into Federatkm meetings and were to t>e included as members of various Federation committees. At the 1962 annual meeting, which saw Hyman Ferer succeed hiro as president, Joe Rice came full circle: tbe man who, nearly 30 years before, had wanted so much to t>e a part of community life was a key participant in the JCC mortgagebuming ceremony.

Big Turnout for Young Leadership OMAHA - Formation of a new Young Leadership Group was given an excellent chance of succeeding following the informational meeting held Sunday night, Jan. 2S. The meeting, held at the home of Bob and Connie Shitzky, drew an overfknv crowd of over 40j^oung p^ole, joined by seven limfcpen of last years Young Leadership Group. The "veterans" were on hand to explain Young Leadership to the potential participants. The fact that so many of the latter showed up was seen as very encouraging by Lou Solomon, executive director of the sponsoring Jewish Federation of Omaha, and Ann Goldstein, a co-leader of last year's'YL Gnxq).

Letters to The Editor AUYAHSUPPORRD A short time ago, 1,000 of the leaders of the Young Leadership from the United SUtes visited Israel. These young people, lor most of whom this was their first visit to Israel declared their slogan to the "Koah Lema'an Yterael"-Strenglh for Israel This slogan was a call to all young Jewish people In the U.S.A. to contribute their energies and strength to Israel In the economic and political sphere. While claiming that their economic and political contributions took first priority, tills In fact Implied a double negative as regards aliyah: 1. They claim that if Jews Immigrate to Israel, the economic and political contributkNos of American Jews will decrease substantially, as there wont be enough Jews in the J .S. to make contributions. 2. The economic and social situation In Israel is extremely bad according to them, and prior to their backing aliyah, conditions in Israel must improve. In my oplnkm, their approach is wrong. They really have nothing to worry atMwt. Even If the Messiah were to appear, all Jews in the U.S. would not make aliyah to Israel But I am certain that If they were truly committed, they would be able to demand from themselves and from many others the ultimate ooromitment of aliyah as the reallzatkMi of true Zionism. This is the perfect way to identify with Israel and lU problems in all areas. They must realize that our situation %irill only improve drastically if Jews Immigrate to Israel. These Ollm can then help to overcome these* problems. Immigrants who come to Israel strengthen the links between the eounify and the Diaapora and empliaslie the. mutual responsibility

between Jews in Israel and those who live outside Israel. ' An example of the correct approach to Zionist priorities is given by the student movement founded spontaneously In New York (ollowing Arafat's appearance in the UN last year. S.M.I.Studeiit Mobilization for Israel—calls on all Its memtiers to immigrate to Israel without conditions. So far, 100 people from this movement have immigrated to Israel and this coming summer, their friends will Join them. These Immigrants come to Israel and take upon themselves ail the duties of Isradi citizenship. Let us hope that these pioneers will serve as an example to the Koacfa leaders.

My criticism Is that In the nish to get the Des Moines delegation to the bus stalkwi. I failed to thank each of you for the tremendous Job you did in putting together and bringing off such a successful meeting. 1 know from experience that effective, inspiring and smooth programs just don't happen iMit are only a result of good planning and hard work. It was obvious that you and your Chapter didn't spare any effort. For myself, the Des Moines Chapter and to the extent that 1 can speak for BBYO parents, I ooounend -and thank you for a job well done.

' At least, Lazar Berman, the noted Russian Jewish pianist, had an Inkling something was up wtien he and the New York promoter of his current United States tour, Jacques Leiaer, met Shirley on the sidewalk near the Orpheum Theater that Tuesday evening. Here's how Shirley described the meeting that happened prior to the planned demonstratkm by the Omaha Committee for Soviet Jewry, . of which she and Miriam Simon are co-chairmen: "Gary iOmdlnger (ooOegB ooordlBatvof thepratait) and I wanttopwkoivcenbefDn MMaiiili« wtth the Nit of ttw pranp.

Just trying to let your government know that we know what is happening (to Soviet Jews who are being harassed for seeking to leave Russia).' "At that point, Leiser grabbed Bennan's arm and started talking to him hurriedly in Russian. Then he took his arm and they hurriedly walked on. "I'm very glad It happned that way," said Mrs. Goldstein of her chance meeting with the pianist before his Omaha Symphony Orchestra concert.

Soviet Situations No Budget

Largest Qroiiii

WASHINGTON (JTA) President Ford's 9SH>age budget for fiscal year 1977 shows that no hmds have been specifically earmarked for assistance to refugees from the Soviet Union, Including Jews going to Israel.

TEL AVIV (JTA) Premier Yitzhak Rabin hailed Soviet Jewry as the largest reservoir of Jews willing to come to Israel and participate In building the State.

However, t2S million Is requested by the President for "emergency refugee and migration assistance" In contingencies that may arise any place in the world—an anwunt which oould bt used within the PrcaMent's discretion for Soviel emigranU, budget authoritlea told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

Addressing 540 delegates and several hundred guests recently at the third annual convention of the Association of Russian Immigrants in Israel at KIbbuU Shafaylm, Rabin declared that the struggle of Soviet Jews to hnmlgrate to Israel was the most important sign of Jewish vltaHty at a time when Zionism Is under attack in many parts of the world.

Both SUriey nd Mfarlam coverage it received. The protest was from about said the purpoae of the demonstration—at which 7:30 to 8 p.m., when the conseveral peraons passed out cert began. Some of the leaflets prataattag ttw travel protestors went Into the and other reatrtctkna placed theater to hear Berman, at on other Ruaifan Jewa—was least one of whose parents Is to keep the priaauie on the Jewish. SovleU ao that they ml^ aDow mote Jews to leavei It was not to proteat Bcrman's appearance here, they Hdd. "I thought people turned out very well for this," said Shirley. About 30 to 35 perons, evenly distributed between teenagers and adults, participated, according to Kinstlinger. "We had second thoughts, about It before we did It, but in' \ general It was received quite well by those going to the concert," said Gary, who attends the University of Nebraska at Omaha. "We came across only about five or six people who wouldn't take our handouts."

Non-commltal rdatkioshlpa do not permit people to relate to each other as total human iMings in the Image of God. More Importantly, the rabbi aald, "the image of God concept must not be Intemallied We muU hOve a political and social reality—a world reality which supports the Image of God."

From 1900 through the early 1920's, synagogue affiliation continiied to t>e the primary expression of Jewish Identity. Despite the fact that Jews of German and Eastern European descent did not affiliate with the same synagogues, the divisions between Uie groups began to diminish. The more active members of each group realized that the growing needs of tlie Des Moines Jewish community as a whole could not be met without community cooperation.

How much are you spending a year to heat and cool your attic? Heating and air-conditioning billa in your home perhaps can be lowered considerably with adequate ceiling inaulation. Inadequately insulated ceilings account for about one-fourth of the heat loas in an average home. And when the hot summer aun boils down on a roof, oven-like attic temperatures result. Hot ceilings due to inadequate insulation make the air conditioner work harder, wasting electricity. Having a fiill 6" of insulation instead of no inaulation in the ceiling can aave $480 a year on utility billa for al,000-8quarefoot home. In many homes, ceilinga are the eaaieat place to check inaulation. If the attic isn't floored, existing insulation ia eaaily measured.

A good general rule ia that any loose type insulation ahould be level with tops of the joists. (In technical terms, at leaat R-22 insulation value ia recommended for ceilings.) Even if the attic has a floor, it may be worthwhile to Uft the boarda and pour or lay additional inaulation. For more information about / insulation,contact your insulation contractor, or OPPD. In Omaha, phone 536-4310. FRBE BOOKLET "Ouideilnea on Inaulatinc Your Home" available on reqneet.

A* this is my last column as JCC Aqiuatics Director, I would like to share with you some thoughts and observations about the future of our department. During this past year, we have developed a viable, active department, Inaugurating new programs and continuing old ones. Some of these activities include Swim Stroke Ginics. Swim Meets, swimming classes and life saving classes. Other programs were CPR Clinics, canoe trips, fashion shows, plus Swim and Stay Fit and haitdk^pped activities. In our magnificent facility with Its Olympic outdoor pool and our natatorium we have built the foundation for all of our programs. We have a souitd philosophy on which to plan future activities.
