The Educatonal Front: You
may think that Yiddish is a
dying language in the United
States . . . But Columbia Uni-
versity — one of the best uni-
versities in the country — has
a different opinion . . . Visit
any high school in New York
and you can see a poster from
Columbia University announc-
ing the opening by the Uni-
versity this summer of an in-
tensive eigth-week course in
Yiddish for high school stu-
dents . . . This course is offer-
ed by Columbia in cooperation
with the YIVO Institute for
Jewish Research which is one
of the major pillars of Yiddish
scholarship in this country . . .
The New York City Board of
Education is strongly encour-
aging this Columbia project
which will be known as the
Uriel Weinreich Yiddish Lan-
guage Program, carrying the
name of the young Columbia
professor who died recently ...
The course will open on July
1st and is being sponsored by
the Atran Foundation which is
promoting Yiddish cultural
projects. It is limited to high
school students entering the
twelfth grade . . . The applica-
Jerusalem, (JTA) — Emil
Roche, president of the French
Parliamentary Economic and
Social Committee said, here
this week that a majority of
the French people support Is-
rael. Mr. Roche arriver here at
the head of a 16-man French
delegation which will discuss
various industrial projects in
Israel. The members are all in-
dustrialists and agricultural
experts.

tion of each of these students
must bear the endorsement of
the high school principal and
the signature of the student’s
parent . . . The tuition is $100
for the entire summer course;
there are a number of scholar-
ships available . . . The course
is an elementary one, assum-
ing that the student had no
prior instruction in Yiddish,
and is open to non-Jewish stu-
dents as well as to Jewish . . .
The program is equal approxi-
mately to a one-year college
course and includes daily class-
room instruction, special after-
noon sessions for such events
as seminars, lectures and visits
to institutions . . . There are
substantial numbers of students
already seeking admission . . .
A remarkable thing about these
early applicants is that they
come from high schools which
enjoy the highest reputations.
RED CROSS VOLUNTEERS
The war in Vietnam has tre-
mendously increased the work-
load of the Service to Military
Families department of the lo-
cal Red Cross Chapter. A
whopping 4,000 telephone in-
quiries per month are now an
average workload.
Telephone workers, case
workers, volunteers and cleri-
cal workers answer these calls,
search for needed information
and send messages or wires re-
garding U.S. servicemen and
their families.
Red Cross also assists ser-
families by counseling, sending
and receiving emergency mes-
sages, assisting with financial
problems and obtaining vet-
erans’ benefits.
These sendees are increasing
daily at the Houston-Harris
County Red Cross Chapter.
Red Cross volunteers are
needed now in the Service to
Military Families department.
These volunteers, with experi-
ence or education in social
work, will be trained at the
Red Cross Chapter House,
2006 Smith.
The training course will be
offered from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00
p.m. on April 3 and again on
April 5.
Persons interested in volun-
teering as a Red Cross case
work aide may call the Red
Cross Volunteer Office at CA
7-1151 for more information.
