that Eureste is insensitive to
carnage on city streets.
"Bernardo seems inclined
to try to protect the cunrent
system instead of the people
of San Antonio who are get-

charged.
Plans now call for the new
policy to be tried’ for one
month.
Officials have stressed that
police would make every
possible effort to establish a
valid identification before
considering the jail option.

Black
students
learn Hebrew
CINCINNATI - Hebrew is
taught in one public school
in Cincinnati, and 18 of the
20 pupils in the class are-.....
black.
Teacher Winston Pickett
sees the ciara at largely black
Woodward High School as a
bridge between blacks and
Jews. That’s why he began
, teaching it two years ago.
“In 1979, I felt the polariz-
ation from the Andy Young
affair,” explained Pickett, a
doctoral student at Hebrew
Union C ollege here.
Young resigned as U.S.
ambassador to the United
Nations after an unauthorized
meeting with a representative
of the Palestine Liberation
Organization. His resignation
infuriated Mack leaders who
thought Young had become
a scapegoat in a government
policy change regarding
Israel. Some Jew* were an-
gered by what they thought
was the government’s be-
trayal of Israel.
The incident prompted Pic-
kett to take over the class in
Hebrew.
Domino game
ends in death
An argument over a "domino” game ended in tragedy early
Wednesday morning when an East Side brother and sister were

were Larry (Gumbo) Kimble, 28 and Maxine Kimble, 26, both

high points of the institu-

Week observance.
”lt was my first experience
teaching,” he said. When I
began to feel more self-con-
fident, 1 began to think
about what the role of the
program could be at Wood-
ward.”
Pickett said he felt awk-
ward bringing a Semitic lan-
guage to black students, who
were still trying to come
to terms with their own
culture. Then he met a Ken-
tucky professor of Semitic
languages.
That professor, who was
black, raid that his interest
in languages had helped him

Hebrew has been taught for
10 years at Woodward. When
the clam began, the school
had a large Jewish enroll-

rending their children else-
where to learn Hebrew, it was
arranged for the Hebrew Bu-
reau of Jewish Education to
provide a teacher and pay
part of his salary. r

of respect and universal sym-
pathy for the bereaved fami-
lies of the murdered and mis-
