Jewish Learning College starts classes Nov. 2 ' The College of Jewish Learning will again host a variety of Jewish adult education classes during the CJL Institute. Monday night classes will -begin on Nov. 2 and meet for six consecutive weeks through Dec. 7. The fee for one or two classes during the Institute is $25, and can be paid at the lOr the first night of

m

First hour classes, 7:30 - 8:20 p.m., include History in Rabbinic Literature, Critical Issues Then and Now with Rabbi Sidney H. Brookes, a look into rabbinic sources in Response literature, and On the Trail of Minor

Jewish Holidays with Rabbi Elliott Marmon, a discussion on the differences of minor and migor Jewish holidays. Second hour class choices are Modern Approaches to the Bible with Professor Richard A. Freund. Dr. Freund will survey different approaches to the study of the Bible. Maimonides: CodiTier, Philosopher, and Scientist with Rabbi Mendel Katzman, will focus upon Maimonides and how his teachings completely changed the way Jewish law Is studied today. There will be a short coffee break between the two class periods.

The original design of a $2.8 milUon facility was suggested following the offer of a million dollar donation from the Gordman family and a study by the Jewish Educational Service of North America. The Federation earlier had postponed the undertaking of the facility in order to meet the community's commitments to Israel for Soviet resettlement. Mr. Yale told the directors that approval of the motion preseiited by Forrest Knitter would set in motion all of the necessary planning to move the project forward. Mr. Shukert indicated that construction might be completed by 1994. . During the discussion, directors were advised that the overall occupancy cost assumption was $4.50 per foot, or $85,000 annually. The initial cost to be paid by the stakeholders was listed as follows: Friedel Jewish Academy, $31,998; UTTO/Temple Classrooms, $25,907; UTTO office, $1,507; Library, $21,111; Bureau of Jewish Education ofTice, $1^890, and the Nebraske Jewish Historical Society, $2,632. The $2 million dollar development budget, also referred to as occupancy alternative three, calls for the Friedel Jewish Academy to occupy 5,800 square feet, including four classrooms, combined art/music room, science room, commons and adminsitrative space. inrO/Temple will maintain seven general purpose classrooms and will share Friedel Jewish Academy's commons and art/music room.

Columbus/Jewish ties link Jews to myths

By Morria Maline Attempts to link Christopher Columbus with a Jewish connection speak volumes about American Jews: their loyalties and their insecurities, a history scholar said here this week. "It is a remarkable fact that of all of America's ethnic and religious groups only one — the Jews — has linked itself up to all three of the nation's founding myths, said Dr. Jonathan Sama, chairman of the Near Eastern and Judaic Studies departments at Brandeis University. Dr. Sarna introduced his research to about 150 attending the Sunday evening lecture of the fifth annual symposium of the Philip M. and Ethel KluUnick Chair in Jewish Civilization at the Jewish Community Center. His keynote address, entitled, The Mythical Jewish Columbus and the History of America's Jews, deacribed why Jews over the past century have tried to link their heritage with the discoverer of America. He pointed out that Jews have attempted to link themselves to all three of the nation's founding myths: The Indians, according to popular Jewish mythology, were the Lost Ten Tribes; Columbus was aided by Jews and may even have been one himself; and the Puritans . were Hebraic. These myths, by their very nature, have precious little to do with the real history and signifi-

cance of the Indians, Columbus, and the Puritans, but they do speak volumes about American Jews — their loyalties and the insecurities," Dr. Sama asserted. The scholar, one of several who came to Omaha to participate in the twoday symposium, contrasted the "gala" celebration of Oct. 12, 1892 vrith the more reserved commemoration of 1992. Typical of the Jewish response a century ago was a prayer offered by New York's chief rabbi, Jacob Joseph. The text expressed gratitude not only for Columbus, but also for the tvTO Jews, who reportedly accompanied him. The prayer also paid tribute to America's subsequent role as a refuge for persecuted Jews, highlifted the nation's tradition of religious freedom and equality, praised heroic George Washington and closed with a blessing for President Bei\jamin Harrison. Dr. Sarna said the prayer embodied all three of the themes that proved central to American Jewish thinking «bout Columbus. "The prayer linked his activities to Jewish history by pointing to Jews who supposedly traveled on his vessel (serving to legitimize the whole Jewish presence in the New World). Secondly, the prayer associated Columbus with the freedoms, that were so centrally important to American Jews, particularly free-

dom from persecution and freedom for religious minorities. Finally, the prayer used Columbus as a vehicle for expressing Jewish patriotism. It proudly pledged allegiance to the values that America stood for and invoked God's blessing upon the President and his administration. Dr. Sarna pointed out that the moat significant American Jewish contribution to the national celebration of Columbus that year was the scholarly research of Rabbi Meyer (Moritz) Kayserling in the Spanish archives. Rabbi Kayserling was commissioned by American Jewish merchant Lazarus Straus and his diplomat son, Oscar Solomon Straus, to write a scholarly volume demonstrating the extent to which Jews shared in Columbus's enterprise. What Straus hoped to accomplish, said Dr. Sarna, was to thwart antiSemitism by showing that Jews had taken an active part in the discovery of America. This points out that domestic anti-Semitism was already of substantial concern to American Jewish leaders, although they rarely spoke about the problem in public. Dr. Sama explained. The spiritual queit by American Jews to link themselves vnth Columbus was the hope that if Jewish contributions would be recognized appropriately, prejudice against them would disappear. The idea that Columbus was a Jew arose in nonJewish circles in Spain when a theory evolved claiming that he was bom in Spain, that his name had Jewish connections, that his 'mysttcaT signature was a sabatitute for the Kaddish and that a monogram at the top left comer of his intimate letters was in reality "baruch hashcm" or praised by the Lord. Dr.. Sarna said tht fiOOth anniversary h«a led to a flurry of popular new articles on the Columbus/Jewish connection, but that now in light of current attitudes, authors are questioning whether the linkage is really something that the Jew* want

Because so many Jewish teenagers fiom throughout the Midwest have already signed up for a retreat Nov. 6 to 8 at Mahoney State Park, organizers have arranged more rooms and now can accept 14 more teens. So far, 73 teens from Omaha, St. Louis, Kansas City, Lincoln, Des Moines, Sioux Falls and Sioux City have signed up, said Joel Alperson, who organized and is sponsoring the retreat. The retreat, named "Losing My Religion" after a popular song by the band REM, features discussion sessions with Dennis Prager, a Jewish author, lecturer and Los Angeles talk-show host. Mr. Alperson, who as a college student attended several lectures and retreats by Mr. Prager, calls him "a dynamic, compelling, convincing speaker" who "answers tough questions and goes beyond the traditional answers." The retreat will also include fun activities such as a dance on Saturday night and recreational football games, Mr. Alperson said. "It's not going to be a weekend of lectures," he said, "but it is an opportunity to think about why we are Jewish, about what the big deal is all about." A six-year advisor for AZA #1, Mr. Alperson said he organized the retreat because "the kids here are phenomenal, but they don't have the slightest idea why they're in Jewish organizations." "They know their parents want them to, and that there are parties to go to, but there's not that sense of relationship with their heritage," Mr. Alperson said. The retreat is not connected to BBYO or any other Jewish youth organizations. It costa $50, which includes meals, lodging and all programs. To register, send a check made out to "Losing My Religion," to 3306 S. 157th St., Omaha 68130. For more information call Mr. Alperson at 330-6370.

Yachad, a new program for Omaha, will also receive funds from the Schrager Foundation this year. A branch of NCSY, Yachad will serve young adults (high school age and older), who have disabilities, in a recreational/social setting and will be open to Jewish community members, regardless of synagogue affiliation. Every two years, the Artza program organizes a trip to Israel from Omaha for about two dozen teenagers. An Israel education program, which begins in February, culminates with the summer trip. Beth Cohen, Artza director, is "very pleased" with the support Artza has received from individuals and a number of funds, including the. Schrager Foundation, to raise $45,000 needed to partially cover trip expenses. The SchV-ager Foundation will also fund three additional college scholarships this school year as well as continue four other scholarships initiated in 1990 that were awarded to college freshmen who have maintained the required grade point average to qualify for on-going support. In addition, the Schrager Foundation is committed to funding a substantial percentage of the Jewish Education Special Needs Project for children with disabilities. "The on-going support and generosity of the Schrager Foundation helps to insure tlut every Jewish child in Omaha can receive a Jewiah education to the beet of his or her ability," said Susan Draxen, director of the Bureau of Jewish Education, The Schrager Foundation has reifMnded to some of the needs in our community that might have gone unmet otherwise; because, at Phil Schrager says, 'H'erri and I are intarelted in helping othef paople."

By Deborah Fellman Representative Peter Hoagland stressed Democratic presidential nominee Bill Clinton's "moderate to conservative leanings" in a talk to members of B'nai B'rith at a Breadbreakers luncheon Oct. 21 at Regency West. About 25 members listened to and spoke with the two-term Democratic congressman from Nebraska's second district. Rep. Hoagland spoke mostly about Gov. Clinton and outlined five changes to "expect under a Clinton administration." He said Clinton would -Worik cooperatively and efficiently with the Democratic House of Representatives and Senate; -Reform health care in such a way that does not ' burden small-bitsiness owners; -Work to 'make abortion not a political issue' and to 'codify Roe v. Wade'into law. -Impose delays and regulations on the purchase ofguns; •Offer financial assistance, such as grants of $10,000 per year, to any college student willing

repay the debt through community service; •Work to decrease the deficit. When asked whether his own priority was to reinvigorate the economy . or to decrease the deficit, Rep. Hoagland said "We'll need to walk the tightrope." The best way," he said, "is to have an economy that's growing...and have deficit reduction." Rep. Hoagland also urged Nebraska ns to vote against term limita, saying that state residents benefitted recently because of the influence Sen. Jim Exon (D) has built over the years. The cuts at SAC would have been deeper if not for Exon being the second-ranking Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee," he said. B'nai B'rith president Howard Kutler said he invited Hoagland to speak during the last two weeWs before the election because "he's always been supportive of the Jewish community" and "we are politically concerned as a group."

Split by Nazis, reunited by chance ' Garth Wolkoff Northern California Jewish Bulletin SAN FRANCISCO — For half a century, Oakland resident Ernest Hollander thought the Nazis killed his older brother Zoltan. What he was told by a friend, while the two were fighting the British in Palestine, was that Zoltan'a body was last seen cut from a tree after German soldiers hanged him at the end of the. war.

printer in the city of Kragiuevic. He believed his entire family perished in the war, having no idea that he had two brothers in California and scores of extended relatives in the United States, Canada and England.

But Zoltan isn't dead.

"I found a brother but he found two brothers, uncles and aunts, nieces and nephews — a city of people," says Ernest.

Next week, after not seeing his brother for 52 years — "a lifetime," Ernest Hollander says — he will embrace his brother on national television.

Then he adds: "But he didn't find four sisters, one brother, 21 uncles and aunts" and scores of other relatives who perished in the Holocaust.

The reunion is taking place because of an appearance Ernest made last spring on a nationally syndicated talk show. A man in Brooklyn recognized him as the spitting image of his friend in Serbia.

While living in Serbia, Zoltan had joined a Serbian-Jewish friendship society and met Zivoljub "Zika" Djordjevic, a Yugoslavian' Jew and the son of Holocaust survivors.

That friend turned out to be Zoltan. "I'm in seventh heaven, what can I tell you?" exclaims Ernest, 67. "I cry every day from joy." Zoltan "Herahe" Hollander, now 70, was in fact strung up to die in Germany back in 1944 but fell between two trees and played dead for three ays until he could espe. ' ,

^

E>jor4jevic is a mechanical engineer who has since moved to Brooklyn and now spends his days caring for his three children while his wife studies to become a doctor.

He fought against the Germans, until the end of the war but the Soviets thought he was a spy and sent him to Siberia for 10 years,' where he was forced to build roads and work in factories.

That's •why he was home watching television April 30 when Ernest — who with his wife Annie have two adult children, Beverly Baker, 44, and Michael Hollander, 40 — appeared on the "Montel Williams Show^" Ernest was debating Holocaust revisionists, who claim the t<lazis had no master plan to murder all of Europe's Jews and that the gas chambers never existed.

Tou can use the worst word in the dictionary to iescrjbe what the Russians did to him." Ernest says.

- "I was his only hope (of finding his Camily) and .thank God I could help," says Djor4Jevic from his home in Brooklyn. .,,

The Soviets finally released him and he left for Yugoslavia, where he was forced to work in a factory 50 to 70 houni a week — this time becauae the Yugoslavian government •reused him of being a 'Soviet spy. Ten years ago, Zoltan Hollander Anally got his freedom and became a

"I believe in God, and I don't think something like this just happened. I see God's hand in everything, from the moment I met (Zoltan) to the moment I saw his brother on TV," DJor^cvic says. "It's really a miracle for me. 1 have to say that I feel that God chose me to do that for him."

After months of trying, Djordjevic finally was able to connect Ernest to his old friend in Kragujevic, some 60 miles from Zagreb. On Sept. 7, Ernest called his brother on the telephone. "I said, 'Are you Hershe?' We talked in Yiddish and in Czech but then I couldn't talk for a half an hour and I broke up and cried," Ernest Hollander says. "Finally we started to talk about it. The first day, we were both so numb we couldn't ask questions. I was just listening to how he breathes. I couldn't care to ask questions. But now, I call him to ask questions every day." Because of Djordjevic's random channel-flipping, Ernest, Zoltan and a third brother, Alex, 64, who lives in Clear Lake in Northern California, will in a sense get to rewrite their history — a painful irony given that the topic of the show on which Ernest appeared was Holocaust revision"You're in a concentration camp and you go through just about all the hell you can take, and then you have to debate these bums on TV," Ernest says. "1 told them my life and they said 'prove it to me' — as if I could bring back my mother and father and sister and brother from the ashes of the crematorium." Soon, Ernest will get his brother back. Zoltan Hollander and his sons Duaan, Monchelo and Rodmilo will fly from Zagreb to JFK Airport in New York, paid for in part by the Montel WilhamsShow. "Religiously speaking, I believe It Is a miracle," says Ernest, who founded Berkeley Metals after he moved to Oakland in 1960 from Israel snd now speaks to school kids about the Holocaust.

Prison term By Leslie Katz Northern California Jewish Bulletin SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco-based Jewish Community Relations Council approved a resolution calling for. the commutation of convicted spy Jonathan Jay Pollard's prison sentence.. In doing so, the JCRC becomes the first major community relations council in the country to assume that stance. The resolution was approved just hours after the U.S. Supreme Court decided not to hear an appeal of the convicted spy s sentence. The nation's highest court, without comment, said it would not review a ruling handed down in Match by the U.S. Court of Appeals. The appeals court had rejected Pollard's claim that the government had violated the terms of a 1986 agreement in which he pleaded guilty to spying for Israel in exchange for a reduced sentence. Pollard's attorney said he would file a written request asking President Bush to commute the sentence prior to the Nov. 3 presidential election. According to Michael Jacobs, San Francisco attorney and JCRC vice chair, the Supreme Court's refusal to review the Pollard case helped push the JCRC — an umbrella organization representing more than 70 local synagogues and Jewish groups — to lake action. He stressed, however, that the JCRC had already been studying the issue — for months, in feet.

Bert's Eye View By Bert Lewis We've had the pleasure of some house guests in recent weeks - the company coinciding with the just past holidays. It was great to fiiss over the seating arrangements around the table, to work out the best was to overlap two tablecloths, (kine aynhorah) Accommodating large family gatherings for happy occasions should be every: one's biggest problem! TTie term "houseguests" means mishpucha from out of town. I treasure such times because it's a golden opportunity to talk, talk, talk until all hours. Even when everybody is yawning and falling-down-tired, it only takes an idle comment on how nice Auntie Chanah looked at dinner or maybe what the temperature will be tomorrow. In no time, the others gather and pretty soon everyone is engaged in a discussion. If there's a problem in the clan, this is the time to gossip about it. If there's something funny to share, at midnight it's hilarious.If somebody's grandchild said a really hysterical phrase, it might well be the topic at a late session. As far as reminiscing...what better time to recall childhood stories? Even if one member of the party nods off to sleep while listening, it's the very best time for visitors and hosts. I often worry about the small guest room in terms of comfort, but I know that while a hotel room offers more space, it can't handle a hock session. I think it would be nice to walk around the open studio couch without bumping shins, but how important is that? Isn't it better to sit around the kitchen table and look at old pictures, remembering old times and old tales, maybe nosing on an apple while listening to somebody talking about the good times had in that wonderful 1938 Plymouth coupe? Who needs a big hotel room when there's so much to giggle about in the kitchen? Maybe I'm goofy, but I'd rather have a little commotion in the house. 1 don't mind scheduling showers and taking turns and making many pots of coffee. It's a little like it was when there were six of us in the house and confusion was the order of the day. I admit I like the orderly way the two of us live on a day-to-day basis. But I also' like it just fine when the phone rings and I hear "is there room at the, inn?" You betcha. Just let us know when you're coming

• Ethics of Zionism V conference at UNO On Nov. 12, a conference entitled: "The Ethics of Zionism Conference at UNO" will be held at the Eppley Auditorium, University of Nebraska at Omaha campus from 5:30-8:30 pm. The conference will explore the ancient and modem rooU of Zionism in light of the ethics of Judaism and is being sponsored by the Department of Philosophy and Religion and International Studies and Programs at UNO and supported by the Burns Endowment in Ethics of B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundations, the Henry Monsky Lodge of B'nai B'rith of Omaha and the ADL/CRC of Omaha. According to the announcement, this is the first time that a conference of this sort is being held at an American university and it will allow students and faculty in the area an investigation of the ethical underpinnings of Zionism. The date of the conference corresponds in the Jewish calendar to the 75th anniversary of the date of the Balfour Declaration of 1917, called by some the "Declaration of Independence" for Israel. In addition, the date of the conference corresponds to the rescinding of the 1975 UN resolution equating Zionism with racism which took place less than one year ago. The program will include remarks in commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration and its meaning for the modern State of Israel by Consui-General Arthur Avnon, followed by an address entitled: "Jewish Ethics and the Ethics of Zionism: An Historical Evaluation" by Dr. Richard A. Freund, professor of Judaic Studies at UNO. A talk also will be given by professor Michael Berkowitz, a professor of Modern Jewish History and Zionism at the Melton Center for Jewish Studies at Ohio State University. Professor Berkowitz' address is entitled: "Zionism's Moral Compass: TTie Brandeis Faction as Opposition 1919-1931". A question and answer period will follow. Topics related to iSrael and Zionism have come under fire at many American college campuses of late and this conference represents an important effort by UNO to provide a free and open forum for investigating the ethical underpinnings of Zionism for students and faculty at area universities, the announcement stated. The conference is free and open to the public and will be held at the Eppley Administration Building Auditorium (the old library building) and paid parking ($.50 in coin for the evening)'is available for the public in the above ground parking facility at the Dodge and 60th Street entrance to the University, behind the Arta and Sciences building.

Editor taken hostage By Alexander Lesser MOSCOW (JTA) — A gang of black-shirted members of the antiSemitic Pamyat movement burst into the offices of a pro-democracy Moscow newspaper, held the editor hostage and videotaped the staff before leaving about 20 minutes later. They were gone before police arrived at Moskovski KomsomoletZt which bears the name of the defunct Communist youth movement but is now regarded as a leading prodemocracy paper. Pamyat leaders have frequently called the paper "Masonski Zhidomoletz" (Masonic Kike omelette) and s^imilar names; some Pamyat leaflets have framed the paper's masthead in a Sur of David. Nonetheless, there is nothing particularly Jewish about the paper, whose editor, Pavel Gusev, is an ethnic Russian. The incident began t* aweekly editorial meeting was in progress.. About 2S to 30 members of Pam yat'i National Patriotic Front faction sprang fVom teveral vehicWs that suddenly appeared outside the paper's main entrance.

By Gil Kezwer TORONTO (JTA) — Canada's immigration minister has barred a Holocaust revisionist from entering the country. David Irving, 54, a British historian who turned from mainstream history into rewriting the Holocaust, had intended to come to Canada after speaking engagements in the United States. Jewish organizations here were pleased by the decision by Immigration Minister Bernard Valcourt, which reversed an earlier Immigration Department ruling that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police would watch Irving but not stop him at the border. Irving's lawyer, Douglas Christie of Victoria, British Columbia, a defender of neo-Nazis and Holocaust revisionists, filed an appeal with the Federal Court, seeking an it\junction against the ban. <^ohn Laskin, counsel for the Canadian Jewish Congress, is asking leave to intervene at that hearing. Irving, author of pro-Nazi apologia, such as "The Destruction of Dresden" "Churchill's War" and "Goring," had been slated to be in British Columbia on Oct. 28 to receive the Canadian FVee Speech League's eighth annual George Orwell Award for courageous defense of free speech.

Some rushed straight to the third floor, where Gusev's office is located, while others surrounded the paper's unarmed security guards, said witnesses. Locking Gusev in, the invaders read him a 10point declaration that included demands he turn over the names of the paper's journalists who have written "anti-patriotic" articles, and "apologize before the Russian people."

Number games make math fun for Academy students

Students at Friedel 'Jewish Academy are using an innovative curriculum of textbooks and games to learn math. According to parents, students and teachers, it's a success. Called "Real Math," the curriculum uses board games, oral drills and number cubes to teach and test math skills. Some games allow children to compete with one another in computing sums, others require them to work in teams. Teacher Denise Bennett said Real Math requires students to think through complicated problems to reach answers. Students said they like it mainly because it's fun. Fifthgrader Renata Zinkov said she likes that the teacher joins in on games.

Classmate Zack Cionsher, once an avowed disliker of math, began surprising his parents by talking excitedly about it this year. "Math used to be pretty bad, but now it's pretty ftyi," he said. "The book is colorful, it has good story problems, and we get to play games."

New Supreme Court term may see key ruling on religious liberty By Debra Nussbaum Cohen NEW YORK (JTA) — One of the cases slated to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court during its current session is likely to impact the way constitutionally protected religious liberty is deflned in America. The Supreme Court is expected to refine its position on when the government can legitimately curb religious practices, and when that interference infringes on Americans' right to the free exercise of their religion, in its ruling on a case called Church of the Lukumi abalu Aye vs. City of ialeah, FI9. That is so far the only major case relevant to Jewish concerns that the Supreme Court has agreed to hear, though several other church-state

and hate-crimes legislation cases are being considered for possible deliberation. The Hialeah case will be watched closely by Jewish groups because it is the first to test the scope of a 1990 Supreme Court ruling that gave the government more latitude in adopting laws that could infringe on people's religious liberties. In that case, Smith vs. Oregon, the court ruled that a state government no longer needed to prove a "compelling interest" in enacting or enforcing laws that restrict religious practices, as long as those prohibitions do not target one particular reUgion.

no Jewish organization is overlooking now, he said. Among the other cases of interest to Jewish groups that the court may hear is one which centers on the First Amendment clause prohibiting government "establishment of religion," that is, government backing for religious practice. In a case called Catalina Foothills School District, Calif., vs. Zobrest, the school district is refusing to pay for a signlanguage interpreter for a deaf student who attends parochial school, on the grounds that using public funds to aid a religious institution would violate the so-called Establishment Clause. AJCongresa, which has opposed public aid to parochial schools in the past, is siding with the deaf student in this case.

ATHENS (JTA) — Greece has joined Israel in a renewed search for the Israeli submarine Dakar, which vanished 24 years ago in the eastern Mediterranean with 69 crew members aboard. Naval vessels of the two countries launched an exploration off the coasts nf the islands of Crete and Rhodes for debris that may have been surfaced after the Israeli submarine disappeared on Jan. 25,1968. The ve^siel was on its delivery voyage from Britain, where it liad been purcliased and taken over by the Israeli navy. The location of the search is based on an analysis of mineral residues on an emergency buoy that has turned up and remains the only evidence from the Dakar to lt>e found to date. The analysis, taken together with an appraisal of the prevailing winds and tides on the day of the submarine's disappearance, pointed to the island of Crete.'
