Its "ecumenism" cuts across social, ideological and economic distinctions, as well as the doctrinal differences that exist within American Judaism. It asks only that a candidate for membership be a Jew of "good moral character." It takes in the Zionist and the non-Zionist; the Conservative Jew and. his Or' thodcoc and Reform peers; the urbanlte and the rural dweller. Its symbol is the menorah,. the seven-pronged candelabra that Identifies (he totality of Jewish life, and Its philosophy can be expressed in the Hebrew phrase k'lal Yisrael • the spiritual unity and continuity of the Jewish people. There are B'nai B'rith affiliates hi 46 other nations,giving rise to a spirited watchword: 'Wherever there are Jews in the free.world, there Is "B'nai B'rith." (The slogan is fortified by the flourishing . presence of B'nai B'rith lodges In such places as Tokyo, Okinawa and Dublin-whose late Mayor Robert Briscoe was a charter ' member.) It has grown Into a department store variety of programs, activities and institutions - from combatting Intolerance and defending civil rights, counseling on vocational opportunities, getting out the Election Day vote and educating Jewish adults hi their religious heritage, to publishing books, supporting nonsectaiian hospitals, promoting reforestation programs in Israel'and Hebrew language records in South America, and protesting to the Kremlin - as It had protested to Czars In past generations - the sorry state of Russian Jewry. \> Eighteen men have held the national presidency of B'nai B'rith since Its founding in 1843. it is remarkable thai two vi time men ore' from Geisha.

OMAHA - The Jewish Federation Library at Jewish Community, Center has recently acquired a sixvolume set of encyclopedia for youth, "My Jewish World' published by Keter House, the producers of Encyclopedia Judaica. The work is a welcome addition to the library collection in that it fills a definite and specific gap In the library's resources, Edythe Wolf, librarian. While the library had two other Jewish encyclopedias for young people, this is the first time that a totality of Jewish knowledge has been provided for youth In an encyclopedia of more than one volume. Obviously, a onevolume work can only be skeletal In attempting to describe a subject of the immensity of the Jewish World — past and present, Mrs. Wolf commented. The Encyclopedia Judaica for Youth offers a complete discussion of the Jewish story, a resource needed by the library and by all young Jewish students, she added. Excellently edited by Dr. Raphael Posner, this impressive supplement provides access to Jewish knowledge for the young. Dr. Posner, as editor-in-chief, has helped make available for the young Jewish'student and for interested youth the acquisition of information about every conceivable Jewish subject The text, addressing Itself to youth from the ages of 10-16, has been prepared with the The Secret \M of Hetarich Roehm by Michael Barack.

MEMORIAL EVENT TO HONOniSRAEUOLYMPICATHLETES Almost four years have passed since the massacre of it Israeli ..athletes during the Munich Olympic Games In 1972. The civilized world stood with Israel, shocked and stunned by the horror of the events. Eleven tporUmen were made the target of a political campaign. This murderous act at the very place that symbolizes peace with all nations gave rise to' the question of the very essence of these games. Israel's request to the International Olympic Committee and the Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games in Montreal to hold memorial services or events during the Games was rejected. The International community tries to forget the tragedy and avoids any reference to It. Jay Lemer, chairman of the JCC. health and physical education committee has announced that the Physical Education Department will hold memorial services for the H meriyrs who lost their lives during the massacre In Munich and to express our expression of solidarity with Israel. .
