J.C.C. SUNDAY NITE
SOCIAL TO SNOW
ISRAEL COMEDY
“Deadline for Danny,” a
United Israel Appeal film fea-
turette, will be shown this Sun-
day night, January 4, 8:15
o'clock, at the Jewish Com-
munity Center as part of the
J. C. C. Sunday Nite Social
series.
Admission is free, and cof-
fee and tea will be served fol-
lowing the program. Records
of Israeli and other music will
be played. The public is in-
vited to attend.
The film is a tender tale of
a young boy in modern day Is-
rael, and the good and brave
fight he fought—for his beliefs
and for his pet cow—right up
to the office of the Prime Min-
ister! It is a lively comedy, re-
veals touching and striking
humor and insight, and is in-
terwoven with adventure, hu-
mor and pathos.
