Jackie Mason Heads Donor Dinner Cast
Some 200 or more local women, all members of the Columbus Chapter of Hadassah, are concentrating their efforts on the 32nd Annual Donor Dinner, to be held at the Jewish Center on Tuesday, Nov. 1. Because of the entertainment, husbands will accompany their wives to this affair.
The financial success of the 1960 Donor Dinner Is assured.
HADASSAH IS grateful to the battery of 60 women, who staged a unique "crash call" campaign for pledges, on Sept 11. Within a few hours 1100 Hadassah members were contacted and the business of money raising was completed. Oiairmen will now turn their attention to climaxing all the "be¬ hind the scene" efforts, with a planned evening of entertainment —the Hadassah Donor Dinner.
JAOKIE MASON, young enter¬ tainer of Oincord Hotel fame, will furnish the evening's fun. Mason ia fajniHar to television viewers and has appeared several times in the guest spot on the Steve Allen Show. Dorothy Kllgallen has writ¬ ten of him: "He ia one of the country's hottest comedians." The Herald Tribune called him a truly inspired comedian, assured, poised and explosively funny.
THE OOLUMBUS community opened its heart and purse strings to Hadassah's call 32 years ago for its first donor event. Many who will attend this year were bom long after the Donor Dinner ar¬ rived on the C3olumbus scene. Their enthusiasm has Increased in proportion to the magnitude of Hadassah's labors.
As the dedication and far reach¬ ing effects of the work of Hadas¬ sah Women cannot be measured —so the far reaching effect of the enthusiasm also cannot be meas¬ ured. This promises to be Hadas¬ sah'a   big  year,   memberahipwlse,

Football Predictions
Beginning this week and every week throughout the football and basketball season, Mort Schwartz's ratings and predictions will appear on the sports pages of the Chronicle,
Schwartz's grid power ratings dominate the prediction field for several reasons. It is the only mathematical system which rates professional teams as well as college. His ratings have maintained a 75 per cent proficiency average over a seven year period. His is the only scientific system which forecasts the actual point scoring margins. It is the only major prediction feature which computes emd publishes a weekly accuracy average based on right and wrong selection results.
