All the Jewish Women's Clubs are cordially invited to attend this lecture by one of the South's outstanding leaders in ZionUtic work. Mrs. Weiner’s talks are always inspiring and educa tional. The speaker of the afternoon was Rabbi Harry Epstein, who delivered an address on the far-reaching influence of the National Hadassah Convention at Chicago. Hadassah is the medical organization of Palestine, sponsored by Jewish women of the United States. Hospitals in all the large cities of Palestine are financed by this group of women, which admit all humanity regardless of creed or race. Infant welfare stations are erected throughout the land, giving hygienic information in the care of chil dren as well as prenatal aid to mothers, resulting in a great decline in infant mor tality. Hadassah also serves well-bal- anetd meals to under-privileged chil dren. 'Hiis year's demands are greater than ever, due to the number of refugees from Germany, who are given aid and helped placed in business and occupa tions. ▼ I'he Ahavath Achim Sisterhood spon sored a benefit bridge and tea in Rich's Tea Room.

The (Hitstanding achievement this year is the newly acquired Sunday School an nex, which the rapid growth of the school, under the splendid supervision of Rabbi Epstein, has made compulsory to accom modate the increased enrollment. Chapel Hill, N C. The existence of a nurnerus clausus against Jewish students in the medical school at the University of North Caro lina, a state-supported institution, was re vealed with the resignation of Dr. Isaac H. Manning, as dean of the medical school, when his policy of limiting the number of Jews in the first-year medical class to 10 per cent of the total was over ruled by Dr. Frank Graham, president of the University. Dean Manning had reg ularly held the number of Jewish admis sions into the first-year class to ten per cent because he regarded such a policy as necessary in view of the difficulty of placing Jewish students in the leading medical schools of the United States. Dr. Graham, however, declared that be cause the four-year schools discriminated against Jews was no reason why the University of North Carolina should do the same. Dr. Manning then resigned. He will retain his place on the faculty, however. The quota policy in the medi cal school came to Dr. Graham's atten tion when a Jewish student applied for admission to the school after this year's quota for Jews had been filled. When Dr. Manning refused to meet the Jewish student, the latter appealed to the presi dent who overruled the dean and admit ted the boy on the ground that the school was open to all qualified students not barred by law. This year’s quota for Jews was four of a class of forty.
