tr.r-

Rehearsals are in progress' at Beth El Synagogue for the local premiere presentation of "Havdalah" a multi-media cantata on Saturday, April 29, 8:30 p.m. in the main sanctuary of Beth El.

Federation Replies To Gamp Questions Editor's Note: The doting of Camp Either K. Newman and the lead itory about It in last week's edition of the Jewish Press prompted a number of questions by members of our Jewish Community. The Jewish Press presented these questions to Mary Fellman, president of the Jewish federation of Omaha, and Louis B. Solomon, executive director of the Federation. The questions and answers are as follows: Why wasn't the Community advised that the Federation board, at Its March meeting, was going to vote on the closing of the camp? Answer: It was pur feeling that the future of the camp had been under discussion for many months and that to many people in the community, the discussion and ensuing vote to be taken at the March meeting was certainly not a secret. To bring you up to 4j»t£gj in October, 1977 when the camping season of 1977 had been reviewed, trie future of the camp was discussed with the board and a number of interested persons present. At that time it was voted to continue the camp under the direction of the Jewish Community Center as it has been for the past summer. Following the meetings of the budget committee, a report was submitted at the December meeting of the Federation Board recommending that a report be brought in by Feb. 28,1978 as to the registration of campers in order to decide whether the .camp could continue in 1978. Following that meeting an editorial indicating the camp was in trouble appeared in the Jewish Press on the front page. There was no community reaction to that story. The Jewish Communtty Center Camp Committee proceeded to mount a major campaign to get all registrations in before the end of February in (Continued on Page 5)

Russian Refusenik Artists Show Works at JCC centers on familiar old-world Jewish figures set against delicate, fanciful backgrounds. Included in the group are Naftali Rakuzin, whose finely drawn etchings are often based on the literary sources: Tatayna Kornfeld, who interprets traditional Jewish subjects in a contemporary style, and "Lena", whose bird flying over a remote peaceful leandscape, expresses perfectly the concept of freedom. Also in the show are graphics and wood sculptures by Yuri Kalendarev and surrealist, Slma Ostrovsky.

From Moscow to Jerusalem, an exhibition and sale of artwork by Russian immigrants to Israel is being shown in its first U.S. tour at the Jewish Community Center April 16-29, during regular Center hours. The exhibit, sponsored by the Omaha Jewish Federation Committee for Soviet Jewry' and the Center Art Committee, will open on Sunday afternoon, April 15, with an informal reception open to the entire community. Just a short time ago, as underground artist in the Soviet Union, these people were forced to create in oppression and secret. Labeled as "Refuseniks,"' the seven Russian born artists were finally granted permission to emigrate to Israel in 1975 and 1977. Today, they are free to express their art.

Soviet Jewry Day The day of Sunday, April 16 has been designated as Soviet Jewry Day In Nebraska by Governor E««n._ r The activities will, commence with the dedication of signs saying "Freedom for Soviet Jews" which will be Installed In front of each of the synagogues. The times of the ceremonies will be: 10 a.m. at Beth Israel Synagogue; 10 a.m. at Beth El Synagogue and .11:45 a.m. at Temple Israel. That same afternoon, activities will begin at 1 p.m. at the Jewish Community Center. The program will consist of a newly produced film on the situation In the Soviet Union today. This will be followed by statements from Senator Edward Zorlnsky, Congressman John Cavanaugh and Governor J.J. Exon. ,

the artists latest work will be shown at this first United States touring exhibit, which will also Include approximately fifty pieces, composed of limited edition graphics, original graphics, and a few oils by two of the artist: Yevgeny Abeshaus and Tatyana Kornfeld. Yevgeny Abeshaus is partlculary featured in the exhibit. His works were shown last spring in the Center's gallery as part of an Underground Art Exhibit of 12 Soviet Jewish Artists which was smuggled • out of the Soviet Union, and presented throughout the ..United States and Canada. ...

Philip Cofman, Center executive director agrees. "We're honored and proud to be able to-sponsor sa'event of this quality and magnitude, not only for our own Jewish community, for whom Jewish his-. tory and culture is Important and fascinating, but also for the general public." "This kind and quality of program dramatically stands for everything we try to promote as an organization: human values, human relations, response to community interest, and a unique, educational experience. We're especially pleased that the'Festival is in a position to foster ecumenical understanding to present our shared cultural history with the non-Jewish world," he said. • Among the topics to be discussed by Dr. Seger during the: kick-off lecture, April 25, and presented during the Festival, are the forts, caves and tombs uncovered during last .summer's dig at Tell Halif, near Lahav, Israel. The finds included wine presses, cisterns, flints, human and animal bones dating as far back as the Early Bronze Age, almost 5000

years ago. The field workers, who included many Omahans, are testing a theory that one layer of ruins maybe that oL the Biblical city of Rimmon.

Swiss Donate Dairy Products NEW YORK - The Swiss Government has contributed 150,000 pounds of powdered milk and cheese to the Joint Distribution Committee during 1977, it was announced this week by Donald M. Robinson, JDC President. "This is the 18th year In a row that the Swiss Government has contributed dairy products to augment the feedIng programs of the JDC," Mr. Robinson said. "The Swiss Government also paid the costs of packing and shipping of the dairy products bringing the total dollar value of the contribution this year to $280,000."

More than 143,000 pounds of powdered milk and cream were sent to Israel, Mr. Robinson reported and the balance, consisting of 4,500 pounds of powdered milk and 2,200 pounds of processed cheese, was shipped to Yugoslavia. The milk and cheese will be used in feeding programs in old age homes and other institutions supported by JDC funds. JDC receives funds for its regular health, welfare, educational and other programs In some 25 countries overseas mainly from the campaigns of the Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds through the United Jewish Appeal. .

Holocaust The Passover Haggadah tells us that in every generation each Jew must view himself as if he or she personally went out of Egypt. With every passing year, it becomes clearer that each Jew also must consider himself a survivor of the Holocaust. It matters not whether we were there or not, we are all heirs to this inexplicable horror. When Holocaust, the 9'^-hour television documentary, is aired as an NBC-TV special Sunday through Wednesday of next week, much of America will be watching, listening, and suffering.

Bea Pappenhelmer, a member of the Community Relations Committee, relates her experiences' as a Holocaust survivor. i

This is an educational experience for all of us. There has been a good deal of activity to prepare both Jews and non-Jews for this historic telecast. Locally, the Jewish Federation's Community Relations Committee has taken a leadership role in educating teachers and the general public. Nationally, Jewish organizations have banded together to provide materials of instruction so that the television program will not be an end, but a be* ginning1 to'a^cohtinuing study of man's greatest inhumanity to man. The television special is a fitting introduction to Passover, and we hope that the entire Jewish Community of Omaha will join with the rest of the nation in watching, thinking, and praying — praying that the world will take note of what truly happened not too many^ears ago.

Federation Replies to Camp Questions (Continued from Page 1) order to have a fair indication as to what size encampment could be counted on. Store than 170 families were contacted. In addition contactwas made with more than 123 groups, businesses, etc. to alert them to the camps facilities for week-ends, retreats, etc. When that Information on the campers was completed and a full report available, Allan Noddle, president of the Jewish Community Center, brought his report to the Center Board, the Center Executive Committee, the Federation Executive Committee, and subsequently to the Federation Board in March. The process we used seemed to be a proper one. Was any community-wide effort made to solicit the additional funding necessary to keep the Camp open? Answer: The annual combined Federation campaign which is now In progress raises money for the total Jewish Community. This Includes local, national and overseas services. There is a standing policy of the Federation that no communal fundraising drives be conducted in Omaha during the campaign. Last year, at conclusion of the Camp Study report chaired by Joe Klrehenbaum, the Federation Board of Directors agreed to fund the operating deficit for the 1977 camping season only If the $25,000 needed for capital repairs to open the Camp was secured from private sources. How much would it have cost to open the Camp compared with the cost of closing H? Answer: The approved 1978 deficit for the Camp was budgetedjit $23,697. Opening of the Camp would have created an additional operating deficit of $11,300 plus from $12,000 to $15,000 in capital repairs for a total deficit of $47,000 to $50,000. Closing the Camp will cost about $23,000 for fixed costs. Why didn't the Federation dip into Its cash reserves to open the Camp? Answer: The Jewish Federation of Omaha does not currently have any real cash reserves. Our Community does post campaign budgeting. The funds raised In the 1977 Combined Federation Campaign are allocated for local and national programs In 1978. Our allocations for the funds designated for the Israel Emergency Fund of the United Jewish Appeal were paid monthly as collected. From the funds pledged to the 1977 Campaign, we allocated approximately $730,000 for local and national needs. We had in the bank as of 12/31/77, $616,877 to fund these programs. The Federation Budget and Allocations Committee has recommended to the Federation Board of Directors that we should strive to have one year's local and national expenditures In reserve to protect against a catastrophic campaign.

What is the status of the Esther K. Newman trust fund set up to originally finance the Camp, and to what purpose, If any, will this money now be used? Answer: There is no Esther Kr Newman trust fund. The Camp grounds and the buildings were gifts to the Jewish Federation of Omaha, but operating funds for the Camp always have been provided by allocations from the Campaign. What.would your feelings be If parents selected to withhold their contributions to the Campaign as a means of demonstrating their displeasure over the closing of the Camp? Answer: The Federation Board acted In a very responsible manner, and It is hoped that people would not act In anger or hastily in punishing the entire community's efforts to support all of our causes. | The Federation Board is made up of volunteers, elected representatives of the entire community, whose responsibility is to make management decisions for the benefit of the entire community. In recent years, the Board has become more fiscally responsible and for the past two years, the Community's agencies have been within the overall budget. In the future, and because of the reaction to this matter, the Board will openmajor discussions to the entire community. The upcoming May board meeting as well as all future Board meetings will be announced in the Jewish Press, and as in the past, . observers from the Community will be welcome. Why didn't you (the president of the Federation) meet with parents at the meeting held In the'JCC the Sunday following announcement of the decision to close the Camp? Answer: For two reasons: We had previously scheduled an orientation meeting for new Board members at my home, and this meeting had not adjourned early enough. Also, most of the discussions and Budget Committee recommendations were held under the presidency of Leonard Goldstein, and we thought It more appropriate that he be there to answer the questions since the Center Board had asked to have only one representative of the Federation Board present. If scholarship money through Jewish Family Service and the Beber-Scholarshlp Fund Is Insufficient, will the Federation contribute funds to help families send their children to camp? Answer: If we find that there is a need for additional scholarships, the Federation Board will discuss this need at the May Board meeting. We provided additional money for the Israel Pilgrimage last year when it was needed, and we will treat this need in the same manner. To expedite matters, we are requesting that all families seeking scholarship assistance Immediately apply .through the Beber Scholarship Fund.

This committee will confidentially review all Camp scholarship applications and will report directly to the Federation Board of Directors hi May, If additional scholarship funds are needed, i Applications are available from Toby Forbes in the Jewish Family Service office. The deadline for submitting Beber Scholarship applications has been extended to Wednesday, April 19. What are the future plans of the Federation Board to provide adequate Jewish camping experiences for the Community's youth? Answer: We are setting up a task force on camping. Hopefully, a chairman will be named during the week and the committee will begin Immediately to study the needs of the Community and move ahead with the best programming available for next summer. The Executive Committee of the Federation has set a deadline of Sept. 30,1978 for the task force to complete its report and make known their recommendations to the Federation Board of Directors and the Community.

I Letters to The Editor] To the Editor: Just would like to comment on the Kashrut controversy issue and the results hi the Jewish Press. I was fascinated with the article and comments and the function of the Beth Din. It was a learning experience and I will save this issue for reference. LiUie Becker To the Editor:, The situation of the Jews In Russia, particularity the prisoners of conscience and refuseniks, grows ever more grave. It is in recognition of this fact that the Omaha Committee for Soviet Jewry is planning a Soviet Jewry Day in

Omaha for Sunday, April 16. The day will begin with ceremonies . . . timed to coincide with the Passover holiday, showing the people of the world that the Jews of Omaha commemorate their own redemption from the slavery of Egypt, and at the same time, pray for the freedom of our brothers in the Soviet Union. We hope that the dedication of these signs will serve as reminders to the community of the plight of the Soviet Jews. We also wish to thank Al Johnson of Imperial Outdoor Sign Company for his kindness in donating the signs, and commend his concern over the Soviet Jewry problem. . ;.

Old Timers0 Review By Arthur Grossman "Who's be?" I was asked. "He's Who's Who," I replied. "Who's Who What?" ' ''Who's Who In America." No, this is not a rehash of an old Abbott and Costello comic routine. Rather it was a respectful curiosity on the part of an Old Timer who wanted to know more about our speaker at the club's April 4th meetIng. Because I am associated with the gentleman on the Executive Committee of the Jewish Family Service I was assigned the pleasent task of Introducing Dr. Ronald A. Feldman to our luncheon gathering at the JCC. Dr. Feldman Is a Fellow and Director of tbe Center for the Study of Youth Development at Boys Town. The "Who's Who In America" recognition Is just one of many appointments and honors listed in Dr. Feldman's Curriculum Vltae which, as I pointed out In my Introduction, would have absorbed more time to relate than the man's address to tbe club. Ever since Jewish community leaders like Henry Monsky, Morris Jacobs, Harry B. Conn and William Grodinsky were so competently Instrumental in Its original establishment and, successful prog r e s s B o y s Town h a s constantly been a youth project in which many of Omaha's Jewry have been Interested. Vet In the almost four years of his Boys Town association Dr. Feldman knows of only one Jewish lad residing there. Beginning in 1974, with a staff of two and one office, Dr. Feldman now has a staff of 70 and a new $10,000,000 facility dedicated to the purpose of youth development with special emphasis on preventive and rehabilitative aspects. Dr. Feldman stated it costs, on the average, approximately 9(0,000 to-malntain an adolescent In a correctional Institution until discharged. Simple economics dictates tbe wisest procedure Is to try and prevent a youngster from winding up in this kind of an Institution In tbe first place. And that is part of what Dr. Feldman's work is all about. Dr. Feldman extended an Invitation to our members, as is the community at large, to attend the dedlcatidh ceremony of the new Development Center building during its Open House Week, May 6-13. Former President Gerald Ford is scheduled to deliver

the dedicatory address. The Early Bird session was conducted by Abe Gendler. Various Israeli news topics, gleaned from the Jerusalem Post, formed the basis of our discussion. We then burned over the coals, until ruby-red, < red-haired actress Vanessa Redgrave who stupidly chose the podium of the 50th annual Motion Picture Academy Awards TV show to announce to the world Jewish protestors outside the hall were "Zionist hoodlums." The dissenters were critical of Miss Redgrave being presented an award after she financed the narration of a film documentary in which PLO leader Yasser Arafat appears.

Marcl Telpner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Maynard Telpner, a junior at Abraham Lincoln High School, was inducted into the National Honor Society at an assembly on April 3. Marci has been named as editor-in-chief of the high school yearbook for the 1978-79 school year. On April 18, she will be inducted into Quill and Scroll, an honorary journalism organization.

But what Jew, remembering the years 1933 to 1915, would want to establish such a dialogue? This is not a criticism but a question only. No Alexander Woollcott "heart on the sleeve" journalist, Scholem presents facts, not emotional prattle disguised as knowledge. Even though he did not persuade me, I have to a c k n o w l e d g e t h e forcefulness of his argument. Scholem's essays are not polemics, however. The man is too good an author to present a 300 page sermon. With warmth and gentleness and, like all men of good heart, with love, he discusses his friends: Martin Buber and Aiien Ginsberg; the Marxist critic Walter Benjamin and the Nobel Prize winning author, S.Y. Agnon. Agnon was a great artist, says Scholem, who mastered his torment and like Blake's pure soul "cut a path into the heaven of glory, leaving a track of light for men to wonder at." The same might also be said 'for Scholem, the artist, who as a child taught himself Hebrew, and went on to master his craft. As a young man Scholem' joined a Zionist group: Jung Juda, but finally quit over ideological differences, and the smell of tobacco smoke, which he hated. He also broke with his father who opposed his son's pro--. .Zionist views. Years of wandering were followed by study in Switzerland and Israel, where he eventually taught. ' The collection concludes with Elchmann whose death Scholem sees as an anticlimax. Instead of opening up a reckoning and leaving It, open for the next generation, the Nazi's death foreclosed it, ending his bestiality. The hangman stands between the Jewish people and Elchmann, says Scholem, and adds nothing to the situation, taking away a great deal instead.

'Scholem is, in general, the ageless problems of the Jew at odds with his social environ-, ment and, in particular, with the German Jew during the 1930's. ' Scholem, a German Jew and 'a scholar living in an age without a Messiah, believes that only by remembering a. past we will never completely master can we generate hope for the resumption of communication between Germans and Jews.

Library Has Many Cookbooks Passover has always been a holiday in which food has played an important role. Because of the dietary restrictions at Passover many traditional Jewish dishes must be set aside and others adapted to conform to Passover rules. The Jewish Federation Library, which is housed in the Jewish Community Center, has over SO Jewish cookbooks. While only one Is exclusively Passover oriented, according to Librarian Edythe Wolf, most of the cookbooks have sections on Passover cookery. In addition to special Passover recipes and other traditional and not so traditional Jewish dishes, many of these cookbooks also explain the laws of Kashruth, the special foods usually associated with various Jewish holidays and discuss the wide range of Jewish cooking as adapted from many countries. Following are some of the Passover recipes found in the cookbook collection of the Federation library. 1
