Jacobo Timerman magazine Confirmado, which boasted the largest circulation In Argentina The military coup of 1966 forced Timerman to leave Argentina briefly. By 1971 he founded La Opinion, soon respected as Latin America's leading independant daily, in which he attacked both the extreme left and the extreme right Although the political climate worsened, he continued to print his outrage at the senseless killings which were occuring. and even published lists of the countless abduction victims who were never heard from again. His views were not popular with the government, and in 1978 he was abducted by agents of the regime, and held a political prisoner for 3() months. Timerman, who believes "the press must join the battle for human rights" enlisted the aid of his fellow journalists to gain his release. Through his wife and friends, statements of his situation were funneled to international news agencies

Jacobo Timerman now resides in Israel and is a columnist for the Tel Aviv daily Maariv. Recently he was honored by the International Federation of Newspaper Publishers, which presented him with its "Golden Pen For Freedom" award, in recognition of his suffering In the cause of a free press. The presentation was made by Omaha's Harold Anderson, who is president of the World Herald, and formerly head of the publishers group. Adding a light touch to the solemn occasion, Mr. Anderson recalled sending a letter in Timerman's behalf during his imprisonment, to the President of Argentina. He confided that he was tempted to assume the credit when, two weeks after sending his plea, Timerman was released.

Assures Israel TEL AVIV (JTA) - The landing of several Iraqi transport planes at an airfield near Amman brought prompt assurances from Jordan that they were not intended as a threat to Israel's security. Israel has accepted the explanation which U.S. Ambassador Samuel Lewis conveyed to Premier Menachem Begin at the request of the Jordanian authorities. The Jordanians, who granted landing permission to the Iraqi transports, said (he planes were flown to Jordan as a precautionary measure, lest they become targets of Iranian air attacks. Israelis apparently are less concerned with the presence of the non-combat aircraft near Amman than with the growing rapprochement between Jordan and Iraq This has also caused some concern In Syria whose ruling Baath Party has long been at odds with the Baath Party that governs Iraq. There has !>ecn tension between the two countries

although Israel regards both as potential threats on its eastern flank. Now the Syrians see possible military cooperation between Jordan and Iraq as a threat to their own southeastern borders. According to some Israeli observers, Damascus would not remain Idle In face of a Jordan-Iraq military buildup.

A Matter of Trust Let's be honest. How many of us select a political candidate on the basis of the issues? We would venture to say that in most cases a voter does not sit down and analyze the detailed responses of candidates to issues. • In Omaha, for example, it is most difficult to acquire meaningful information on the positions of the candidates for the Second Congressional District. When a daily newspaper devotes his major coverage to big red football, big blue basketball and big green baseball, it's a wonder we're not all color blind and no wonder at all that we are not better informed. When the local television stations make no effort to bring the candidates before the voters in debate, there are few remaining possibilities for the voters to confront the candidates. Thus, in the final analysis, most voting judgments are made subjectively on the basis of how trustworthy the candidate is perceived by the voter. So the next time you meet a candidate, take a good look. Would yout>uy a used car from him?

The wanderlust continues to affect Israelis, and recent polls show that there are more who are considering leaving. They have their eyes not only on Ihe U.S., but also on Canada, France, Australia, England, South America, Germany, Scandinavia and even South Africa. The Hebrew press here carries ads from firms overseas that want to raid our brainpower. One large South African chemical company, looking for Israeli •engineers (they have a good name) had the temerity to proclaim that "if Israel is Ihe Promised Land, then South Africa is the land of promise." And so they continue lo trickle out of Israel, lured by financial inducements and Ihe promise of an easy life. They are deserters. Their places here are taken by new ollm who come with a high sense of devotion to the Jewish people and impelled by Idealism. In the exchange Israel Is certainly the gainer

Thus, Leonard Fein, editor of Moment magazine, and 37 American colleagues strongly supported Israeli sovereignty in Jerusalem. Their statement was virtually Ignored by the media, which had featured their earlier Peace Now statement criticizing the Begin administration—for the press Invariably, emphasizes the negative and ignores the positive. Jews are not monolithic, and American Jews have never hesitated to criticize Israel If they felt it necessary. Their right to do so was vigorously debated in a panel at the B'nal B'rith convention. Some have reservations lest public criticism be exploited by Israel's foes In this country. Mayor Teddy Kollek of Jerusalem welcomes public criticism but says that critics who challenge Israel's security measures should be willing to come to Israel to join in her defense. But, It must be emphasized, very few Jews differ on Jerusalem. Candidates generally identify with Israel on the eve of elections. The Cartcr-Reagan-Anderson speeches to the B'nal B'rith convention adhered to that tradition. Correspondents for the Washington Post and the New York Times reported that the candidates were courting the Jewish vote, attributing this to its alleged power. But they overlook a salient, oft-forgotten fact. American Jews are but 2.7 percent of the U.S. population and obviously cannot determine the outcome of elections, although they do have some Impact in states where Jews are concentrated. Most Americans who remember the past—Christians as well as Jews-have supported Israel over the Arabs by substantial majorities, as many polls have shown. "I take no special credit for recognizing Israel 1 did what the American people wanted me to do," President Truman told a large audience In 1952.

Editor's Note: Lawrence Grossman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Art Grossman, BY RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX QUESTION: Why Is the seventh day of the Succoth festival is a member of the United States Diplomatic Corps servgiven a special name, "HoshanabHabbah?" ANSWER: This name appears first in a Midrash (Shochar ing as administrative officer Tov). The Talmud does Indicate that special rituals occur on of the U.S. Embassy to the that day without Riving the day a special name (Succah 45a). North Atlantic Treaty OrganiSome claim that the day Is called by the name "Hoshanah Kab- zation with headquarters in bah" because a number of "Hoshanah" prayers are recited on Brussels, Belgium. Mr. Grossman was recently that day instead of just one as on the other days of the Succolh festival. The name would thus mean "Many Hoshanah (save us) on special assignment in the prayers.

right to vote. Everyone should have the opportunity to go somewhere In Eastern Europe in order to see the difference between democracy • and authoritarianism. All of us should be especially grateful to our parents who made the bold decision to leave that part of the world and find a new home in America. 1 must tell you about my visit to a synagogue. I went with another American on a Saturday morning to one of two working synagogues in Moscow (estimated Jewish population 250,000). The building Is not too far away from the heart of the city and is located on a quiet side street. Upon entering, I was greeted with the sight of about 100 men in their 70-80's gathered about five Torahs in various parts of the synagogue, droning away in small

speak. In any case the shamus asked us to dress a Torah. I shook hands with about 50 people and we all wished each other a good Shabbos. On the way out, a group of men to one side called us over and cracked open a bottle of vodka and one pulled some cake out of a newspaper and we all toasted each other and ate some Shabbos sweets as many Jews do all over the world on the Sabbath. A big difference though was that while we were enjoying ourselves In this group one man told us to stand behind a colunrn as someone In a far corner had started to snap our pictures. The women, by the way, sat upstairs. There was no one In the synagogue younger than mid-50's and not a single child. Some of the old men had fabulous faces, long white beards and white hair. The Slddurs were In awful shape with yellow pages and no covers and the building itself looked very threadbare.

groups, all the while others were talking and babbling together so much I assumed we had entered during a break in the service. I was wrong in that assumption since the hubbub continued throughout the hour or so we stayed there. Our presence caused a ripple of excitement and we were surrounded by old men in ragged prayer shawls who wanted to know who we were, what country we came from, what were we doing in Moscow — could we be Olympic athletes perhaps? Upon hearing w e . were Americans some of the curious immediately lost interest and moved away but others kept pressing us with questions. My colleague is fairly fluent In Russian and he did most of the talking. I kept getting the question as to whether or not I could speak Yiddish which all of the men seemed to

Senior Citizens Scene By Helen Newman "In recognition of ber devotion (or us and our loveforher — From the Older Adults and Old Tuners." These were the words which accompanied the lovely silver tray presented to Hollie Delman, director of the Older Adult program of the Jewish Community Center. With Art Grossman, president of the Old Timers, as master ol ceremonies, almost 300 members of the two groups participated in the Sept. 22 meeting honoring Molllc (or her dedicated services (o all. Art, In his opening comments, referred to Mollie as the one who has touched the lives of many; how people like Mollie, unlike a building alone, make a Jewish Community Center. He finished by saying "Let's get together for Simchas." Mollic's lather, Louis Langer, proudly led Ihc luncheon blessings and Rev. Alex Katz, before reciting the "benchen", called Mollie a "woman of valor". Many were the praises for our honoree. Fanny Manvitz, president ol the Monday group, turning toward Mollie, said "It's your day" and so it was. Tony Kagan, chairman of the Older Adult Committee, Included in her brief message "To see Mollie in action, says It all". Ben Laub, director of (he Bureau (or Aging, emphasized Mollie Delman's "devotion tc all". Deity Welssman, former president of the Older Adults, sent a message to Mollie praising her "noble work" for the group. Morrie Epstein, vice president and program chairman of the Monday group, also spoke kind words for our honoree. There were letters of congratulations from Representative John J. Cavanaugh, U.S. Senator Edward Zorinsky and U.S. Senator J.J. Exon. Featured guest speaker, Nebraska Chief Justice Norman Krlvosha, in m a k i n g the presentation in tribute to Mollie, quoted these words "Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself." lie added "If all this world were like Mollie Del-manrthere would b<rllHle"coiF~ cern."

Mollie thanked all for the honor and expressed her appreciation, saying that her work would not be possible If it were not the people whom she served, with the assistance of many Including Mary Fellman and Toby Kagan. Ask Molllc who her favorite person is and she will tell you "Whoever I am talking to" — adding "When you reach 60, and still have your father (Papa Langer), you're pretty lucky." . Although the month of September was Intersected by trie High Holidays, the Older Adults had several exciting activities. There was the bus trip to Des Moines on Sept. 3. Over 40 members of the Older Adult group visited the Capitol; had lunch there and toured the Arboretum, where they enjoyed the plants and flowers on display. All those taking advantage of this bus trip reported a joy ful day. OrfScpl78~atiheTenieFthe birthday of Sam Manvitz was celebrated. A delicious cake was furnished by his family.

participated in these exercises, led by Cory of the JCC's Physical Education Department. On Sept. 22 it was 12plus-1 — one man attended. We would like to see more men joining this Invigorating group. Although David Epstein was not able to attend his 91st birthday party on Sept. 15, a lovely,cake was served in his honor with his daughter-inlaw, Rosaline, attending. Our best wishes to David Epstein for his recovery. Also on Sept. 15 Fanny Manvitz called a Board meeting. Dick Gummers, recording secretary, read the minutes of the last meeting and Sam Poska, treasurer, gave his report. Isidor Kahn reported on his "mltzvah" visits to the hospital. We are so fortunate to have Madeleine Firestone as our new director of the choral group. She is quite excited about starting and a sizable number of Older Adults, attending the first meeting, are eager to join this singing group. If you like to sing, you don't have to be an expert, come to the next session. You'll really enjoy it!

On Sept. 15 the group was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Doug Claxton. Morrie Introduced them as "some of his best friends." The Claxtons had as their guests BUI Warren of California and Rev.

Joel Oiiansky who adapted the novel, "Masada," to the television screen for the stIH unreleased epic, Israeli-made six-hour picture, wrote the original scenario for "The Competition" and also makes his bow as a feature film director.

Throughout the action, William Sackheim is the producer of the film for Columbia Pictures; he is also the co-author of the story.

Yamashita Brings Color to the JCC The JCC's Cultural and Performing Arts department Is most fortunate to announce the coming October exhibitor in our gallery—Sachio Yamashita. Yamashita, Japanese born artist from Chicago, you will remember Is the designer of several local "supergraphics". A collection of his colorful "serious works" will be on display at the JCC from Oct. 12-Nov. 2 Some of Yamashita's murals Omahans are familiar with include: "The Sun" (covers the corrogated steel walkway at Eppley Airfield); "A Dot in Omaha" (Downtown Omaha); "Rite of Spring" (Oakdale School in Omaha); and "Sunrise" (Swimming Pool, Neligh, Nebr.). Yamashita's biggest project was the restoration of the Douglas County Courthouse murals for the Metropolitan Arts Council. But the soft tones of these Nebraska landscapes weren't really his style. He likes color, and his trademark is the seven colors of the rainbow. If you like color, don't miss this exhibit.
