Ahavas Shalom Donald and Anna Zeldin will be honored by Congregation Ahavas Solom, at an informal reception which will take place on Saturday evening, March 24, at 8:30 p.m.in the social hall of the syna- • gogue, 2568 E. Broad St. The reception, which is open to the community, will feature a program of tribute in recognition of the Zeldin's many years of devoted service to the congregation. Serving with the chairman, Avrom B. Fox, on the planning committee are: Rachel Mathless, Debra Fox, Susan Portman, . Jeffrey and Debbie Fine, Michael and Ruth Seideman, Irene and William Marocco, Irving Baker, Miriam Laydell and Doby Lakin. Mr. Fox, alpng with "several prominent leaders of the congregation, will present -several mean- ■ ingful gifts to the Zeldins in appreciation for the many years of dedication to the congregation. "Throughout his more than 15 years as the sexton of the synagogue, Mr. Zeldin was viewed as a man of kindness and warmth, particularly in the manner in" which he related to the many young children who were raised in the shul. Distri-" buting candy to the kids and embracing the young toddlers during services be- _came weekly activities' which the youngsters looked forward to. Many of the original children of the synagogue are now grown adults and active congregational leaders. All of us look forward .to repaying the Zeldin's in some small measure of their-numerous acts of kindness and warmth; The absence of the Zeldins, who have moved to the Heritage Towers and now are wor- shiping-at Beth-Jacob, has- certainly left a huge vacuum in our congregational community," stated Mr. Fox.' All persons interested in attending the reception are urged to make reservations by phoning 237-6753. There is no charge for the reception. "It is with cautious optimism that we welcome the dramatic turn in the Israeli- Egyptian peace negotiations," said N: Victor Goodman, acting chairman of the Community.Relations Committee of the Columbus Jewish Federation. "We believe that an Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty will be an historic event, but it is not peace itself. This treaty will be the first step of what we all hope and pray will be the beginning of an. acceptance of Israel's right to exist in the Middle-East by all other Arab states in the region. We hope that President Sadat's action will be emulated by other Arab leaders, es'pe- cially King Huessin .of Jordan and King Khaled of Saudi Arabia," continued Mr. Goodman. The Israel Cabinet paved the way for the peace treaty with Egypt by voting overwhelmingly on March 15 to accept a compromise on the last two outstanding issues. Another Cabinet session was held on Sun.^ Mar. 18 to approve the treaty formally, -and during the week this accord was presented to the Knesset where it was expected to be passed by a comfortable margin. Following the Knesset's approval, the peace treaty would be signed, unless there' would be any last min- Community To Give Thanks For Peace A community wide observance of thanksgiving for the signing of the Israel-Egypt Peace Treaty will be held Tuesday evening, Mar. 27, 7:30 p.m. at the Broad" St. Presbyterian Church, 760 E.

"Occasions for rejoicing merit rejoicing," stated Mr. Goodman. "No matter what our religious affiliation, ethnic heritage or racial background, we, as Americans, are proud that peace which has for so long been denied the people of Israel and Egypt, will soon, hopefully, be achieved thanks to the efforts of President Carter, Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat As President Carter said before the Israeli Knesset, • "This sacred declaration to peace, born and fostered in Jerusalem and Cairo^has given to men and women ^everywhere a renewed sense ■of hope that human reason, goodwill and faith can succeed and .can break down barriers between people who in our lifetime have only known war." .
