FRIEDMAN MEMORIAL PROGRAM continued Jewish Family Life Education is a program for community education where partiCipants have a chance to express their feelings and learn from one another in an informal setting. it lets people find new ways to deal with family problems while emphaSizing the quality of Jewish Family Life and our Jewish heritage. After several months of exploration Judy Levine and Marilyn Gall were named co-chairs of the committee to develop the Sue Friedman Memorial Program. The commit- tee, consisting of representatives from the major Jewish organizations in Central Kentucky, decided that the Sue Friedman program would serve as a keynote and a catalyst to encourage all the Central Kentucky Jewish organizations to present various Jewish Family Life Education programs, as some had already done in the past. At the same time Mr. and Mrs. Joe Wolf of Corinth, Kentucky, had made a generous contribution to CKJA(F) for use within our local community. This money has been invested, and with the agreement of the Holfs, the income from the wolf Endowment Fund is being used to supplement the money allocated by the CKJF board for the Sue Friedman Memorial Program. CKJF President Gloria Katz, in speaking about this program said, ”We are honored to be the recipients of Mr. and Mrs. Wolf’s generous gift. Their concern for the future of our Jewish community and their recognition of the importance of the Jewish Family Life Education program honoring one of our most valued and respected community leaders represents an outstanding commitment on their part. We are extremely grateful to them.” WORKSHOPS TO FOLLOW DR.

LAUREN HEINBERB, executive director of the Bluegrass Chapter of the NCCJ, served as codirector of the week—long camp, and NATALIE SAXE of Lexington served as a counselor. Dear Central Kentucky Jewish Federation, Thank you so much for your partial scholarship to attend Anytown, sponsored by the Kentucky Chapters of the National Conference of Christians and Jews. Your letter arrived at a terrific point. I was beginning to question spending a week at Anytown, not knowing a soul and acting only upon my parents’ recommendation. Your scholarship was the perfect answer —- it showed that you felt that this was a worthwhile endeavor. And it WAS! From the morning group discussions to the afternoon workshops to the fun recreation, our diverse group learned to work together and to care for each other. We not only broke down preju— dices, but also allowed each person to express his innermost thoughts and display his talents. This led to a greater appre- ciation of our diversity. This experience made me extremely appreciative of my own family’s strong love and support and educational values. I found that the biggest differences existed not between blacks and whites (which the newpaper photographer highlighted), but between the city and the rural youths. Une of the highlights of the week was cultural night. Each group —— Blacks, Jews, Indians, Irish, Germans, and Anglo-Saxons -- gave a presentation about their culture. Our group consisted of Lauren Weinberg, Natalie Saxe, Daniel Dickstein and me. Using flashback tech- nique, an old Jewish couple (Dan and I with grayed hair!) reminisced over a Sabbath dinner about their traditional marriage (by Rabbi Weinberg) and their daughter’s (Natalie’s) Bat Mitzvah, etc. At the celebration following the Bat Mitzvah, we danced the Mayim and proceeded to teach the whole Anytown group the Cherkazea. Using my own Bat Mitzvah candlesticks and wine goblet, I thoroughly delighted in having this opportunity to share my Jewish back— ground with others, many of whom had never before come in contact with a Jew. That week was truly an ”Experience of a Lifetime!” In fact, Anytown will always remain a highlight of my past, and I look forward to bringing the “Anytown Spirit” back to my youth groups and friends. Thanks again for your support. Sincerely, Maw; Ruth Belin lf you re waiting to see Shoah and have been disappointed that Lexington has yet to receive a screening of Claude Lanzmann’s monumental documentary on the Holocaust, you can now rent it at a local video store. No ordinary documentary, Shoah, over nine hours in length, does not contain actual footage from the 1940’s. Instead, Lanzmann relies on narrative as well as interviews with Jewish survivors, German officers and Polish bystanders. A montage of the experiences and observations of these individuals, the film’s organization and focus conveys clearly the director’s intent. Lanzmann, as interviewer and director, is always in control, evoking emotional and intellectual reactions from the viewer. A sense of reality is successfully maintained throughout the film even though all ”action” takes place in the present, over forty years after the Holocaust. Lanzmann’s choice of varied subjects contributes to this as well as his demand for detail after minute detail from his interviewees. The Nazi’s systematic approach to extermination is the thread running throughout the film. Dan Isaac writes of this in the Spring/Summer publication of Issues of the American Council for Judaism. ...Shoah demonstrates over and over again that the Nazis in the death camps had created a system from which there was no possible divergence, no opportunity for revolt, no latitude for purposeful action. There was only compliance or death. ...It is precisely in the accumulation of facts and detail that this film also becomes a chronicle giving us the larger overview of how the words ”Final Solution“ was intuitively interpreted down the line of the Nazi chain of command in a way that would would lead to the industrialization of death... Shoah is available at Video Village on Regency Road, 277-7871. '—x I From the Near Last teport: lt’liracles in the Negev The Blaustein International Center for Desert Studies, located in the Negev near Sde Boker, transforms Israel’s desert region into both a laboratory and a nation- al resource. with over 100 researchers of eclectic specialties on the staff, the Center’s projects include research in solar and wind energy, agricultural potential, practical architecture, animal physiology, and social patterns and adaptation. The guiding principal here, one staffer explains, is ”not to change the Negev but to adapt ourselves, not to destroy the environment but use it on a scale that makes sense." The facilitation of agricultural endeav~ ors in the desert plays the most pragmatic role in the Center’s experimentation. Realizing the potential of using the desert’s brackish water in growing cotton, asparagus, pistachio trees and other plants is one goal. This has led to the develop— ment of a process which uses the water, plus high solar radiation, to grow algae. Efficient fish farming is the focus of other brackish water experiments. A sophisticated greenhouse has been developed for use in the desert. It has walls and roof composed of two layers of plastic. Between these, a liquid circu- lates, acting as an optical fiber. During the day, the sun’s intense radiation is absorbed, reducing the plants’ water requirement drastically. During the cool desert nights, heat is released to protect the plants. ln addition, carbon dioxide is pumped in to accelerate plant growth. Of use to countries with similar desert regions, this complex closed-system process is being simplified for export to the third world. Joint projects have been conducted with many American and European universities. The Center would like to work with col- leagues in the largely desert lands of neighboring Arab states, and the suggestion has been made to Jordanians, Saudis, Sudanese and others at international conferences. Unfortunately, these nations do not want to have contact with the Israeli center. The Blaustein Center operates on a $2.5 million annual budget, supplied by the government, grants and the Blaustein endowment. +UE+dUSDJBFTO - OUri—U‘D' /" WHAT? for what a head -— it takes it all in ear —— the calls, the mail, the reports: ert Nhat hands _~ they can squeeze the requests, the facts -- and then Oh‘ out Gloria’s signature; dial up the through qQICk computation, puts it Executive Committee for an emergency away, redirects, files, calls, and tic meeting and still type 19 letters on In a busy orderly systematic se- r’s a not—so-busy morning.

It is noteworthy that so many Central Kentuckians have visited Israel recently, are planning to go in the near future, or have settled there. This begins a two-part series on those we could identify. Let us know if you, too, are planning a trip to Israel or have been there in the past few months. ”I felt very safe...no problem.” This was Sara Levy’s instant reply to a question about security in Israel during a two week visit to daughter Leslie this past June. ”But there were very few tour busses," Sara added, ”and of course that cuts deeply into the Israeli economy." Leslie has been in Israel, living in Jerusalem, since January. A congressional liaison for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), she took a year’s leave of absence to study in Israel. The first six months she took an Ulpan (intensive Hebrew language course) and at the same time attended classes at the Jerusalem campus of the Jewish Theological Seminary and Pardes, a Yeshiva which draws many students from the Diaspora. Now that her Hebrew is fluent she is concentrating on her courses at Pardes, while maintaining her AIPAC contacts from the Israeli side. Leslie’s brother Phillip and his wife Robin spent the month of August traveling in Israel, following his graduation from Harvard Law School. Another recent law graduate, Howard Barr, son of Martin and Barbara Barr, also spent August in Israel. For Howard, who completed his studies at the University of Louisville, it was a first visit ~~ long anticipated and undeterred by the many Americans who cancelled trips abroad this summer. This past March, as conditions in the Middle East seemed to be increasingly uncertain, Bob and Judy Baumann embarked on a long awaited three week trip to Israel. In addition to visiting family and friends, Bob attended the meetings of the Interna- tional Child Neurology Congress in Jerusa- lem. They also managed to visit Netanyah-Sela, Lexington’s Project Renewal community and several Jewish Agency projects in an effort to familiarize themselves with the uses made of our CKJF-UJA campaign funds. While in Jerusalem they brought greet— ings from home to four Lexington teens who spent the year on the Young Judaea Year Course in Israel, Elaine Cohen, Adam Joseph, Neal Saxe and Debra wekstein. Judy summed up her feelings succinctly, "I feel good when I’m in Israel. After four years, I’m amazed at how much there is to see.“ The Baumanns will return in December with their Children Steve and Lauren and Bob’s mother to visit daughter Barbara. Later the same month Maurice and Evelyn Hymson returned to Israel for the first time in many years. Besides visiting the outstanding tourist attractions the Hymsons spent time with Jeff Moosnick, the son of Franklin and Marilyn Moosnick, a member of Kibbutz Keturah. Jeff has been living in Israel for seven years and is justly proud of his part in turning a part of the desert into a verdant oasis. In Jerusalem the Hymsons also visited with Harriet Saxe, daughter of Stanley and Judy Saxe. Harriet spent the past year in Israel working as an intern for the ledgal advocate for Na’amat, the largest women’s organization in Israel. For those who are contemplating a trip to Israel, you may want to contact Ann and Jimmy Levenson, who will be leaving Septem- ber 10 for a two week Hadassah tour. They postponed their trip for a few months, but decided they could wait no longer for this eagerly anticipated ”Israel Experience“. They will be joined by friends from Tennes- see, and will report their impressions in the next issue.

The National Foundation for Jewish Culture is holding a conference Sept. 20-83 in New York on “Jews and Judaism in Dance: Reflections and Celebrations“. According to project director David Eden, “Dance is the last recognized aspect of Jewish culture.” The conference’s umbrella will be broad, covering dance created by Jews within a specifically Jewish framework as well as dance and dancers using Jewish elements in more universal contexts. Topics discussed will range from the distinctively Jewish dance of the hafidim and the Yemenites, through the creation of Israeli folk dance, into the more nebulous realm of the individual artistic vision where the diversity of approach can be monumental. For information about the conference or tickets to a special performance of ”Women of Yemen“ on September 81 at the Joyce Theatre, write the National Foundation for Jewish Culture at 122 E. 42nd St., Suite 1518, New York, NY 10168.
