The production will be directed by Wally Avison ot WOSU and will feature Burt Dorman, He¬ lalne Brooks, and Sid Golden in lead roles, as Dov, Chana Se- nesh, and Zvl. In the story, ac¬ tion Is projected backwards through the crazed mind of Dov, who, together with Chana and the others, wa.s parachuted Into Nazi-controlled .. Yugoslavia by the British.

How would you like to Invest $1 to help the Columbus (Chapter of Hadassah raise an emergency quota to meet the urgent needs brought about by the present crisis in Palestine?
Tickets for the drawing are in the hands of ail Hadassah membera, who have rallied to the call to raise an emergency quota needed urgently by the Hadassah Medical Relief Asso¬ ciation. The momentous decision by the United Nations on the partition of Palestine has in¬ creased the.obligations of Amer¬ ican Jewry. With the arrival of additional refugees, whose health must be repaired and restored, comes the need for more peni¬ cillin, streptomycin, bandages, first aid kits, and tons ot drugs and Instruments. The need for
these tools of mercy is intensi¬ fied by the Arab attacks upon the Yishuv. Haganah, the Jewish defense force, has cabled a plea to Hadassah for medical aid. Thejf   need   more   clearing  sta-

"Exodus 1947" Eye-witness Here For Hillel Meeting;
Rev. John Stanley Grauel, eye witness on the S. S. Exodus 1947, will be guest speaker at a Pales¬ tine night at the B'nal B'rith Hillel Foundation Wednesday, at "7:30  p.m.
Rev. Grauel is a writer, world traveler and radio commenta¬ tor. As such, he has an unusual understanding of the problems that confront the world today. As a liberal he has always at¬ tempted to transfer his ideas In¬ to action.
Thus It was inevitable that he should volunteer as an ordi¬ nary seaman aboard a vessel carrying "Illegal" Jewish Imml- grant^ Into Paiestlne. Rev. Grau¬ el's ship was the now-famoua "Exodus 1947," boarded by a (Continued on Page Two)
Agudath Achim Women Pledge $30-thousand!
When a couple buys a new vah Club, and other youth un- home. It's "papa who pays"... dertakings, but the quota of $30,- but when it comes to giving that 000 Is over and above the Sis-
new home Its New Look — there's nothing like the "wo¬ man's touch." And, In Agudath Achlm's Pioneer Memorial Syn¬ agogue F\ind Drive, there defi¬ nitely ¦ will be the .women's angle Involved as the Campaign comes closer and closer to its goal.
Announcement this week was made that the Agudath Achlm Sisterhood has pledged $25,000 .toward the goal, plus five more thousand from the Pre-School, for which the women behind these organizations deserve many thanks.
The $30-thausand will be used for Interior decorating, cqulp- Ing, and furnishing of everything necessary and practical for a modern Pre-School, with the latest in facilities; plus other in¬ terior nesessltles for the new "shul" such as a kitchen, drap¬ eries, carpeting, painting, etc.
Up to now, the A.A. Sister¬ hood has been supporting and sustaining the religious school, junior  congregation,  Bar Mltz-
terhood's    current    responsibili¬ ties. Quotas have  been  set up by

Mrs. Harry Maybruck, past a relatively easy task to build president of the Sisterhood, and for future generations, now Sales Tax chairman, has set up a committee to make weekly rounds of the individual sec¬ tions of the "city. This commit¬ tee, which has pledged $2500 per year for a 5.-year period, con¬ sists of Mrs. Maybruck, over-all chmn., Mrs. Joe Topolosky, Driv¬ ing Park chmn., Mrs. Nathan Zeff, Bexley chmn., Mrs. Harry Ruben, southside chmn., Mrs. A. J. Mellman, eastside chmn., and Mrs. Joe Schwartz, down¬ town and business districts.
This is a novel way to raise money. People who will be con¬ tacted will not be taxed to buy an undue amount of tickets for drawings, etc., nor for any ex¬ penditures, but will have satis¬ faction In helping equip the in¬ terior of the new Synagogue merely by saving their sales tax stamps (and contacting the chairman of their district).
The state of Ohio refunds $3 Mrs. Jack Freedman
