Making a comedy is the next
best thing to taking a vacation for
a dramatic actor—but for a comed
ian, making a comedy is just plain
hard work.
This variance of opinion comes
from a trio of Hollywood’s top-
i flight players—Rosalind Russell,
Brian Aheme and Robert Bench-
Icy who can be seen Sunday in
j ‘‘Hired Wife” at the Center and
I Hilan Theatres.
For Tuesday and Wednesday,

, lero,” continuing Thursday and

“Pier 13” on Tuesday, Deanna Dur
bin in "Spring Parade" Wednesday

Here Is a Resume of Senior Hadassah Program
In One City—Presented to Illustrate the
Varied Phases In Which Members May Participate
By MRS. ALFRED BUNDHEIM
Publicity Chairman: Atlanta
Chapter
Hadassah, the Women’s Zionist
Organization of America, since its
inception 28 years ago, has grown
in scope and proportion recognized
by Jew and non-Jew alike. Ha-
dassah’s slogan “The Healing of
the Daughter of my People” has
become a reality in the Holy Land
and the program of health and
service there is made possible by
the strength of the membership of
80,000 the country over.
The Atlanta Chapter of Senior
Hadassah has closely followed the
pattern prescribed by the National
Office and in the 24 years of its
local existence, is recognized
among the foremost of the At
lanta Women’s Organizations.
Since the beginning of the pres
ent regime, which began in Octo
ber, 1940, the Atlanta Chapter has
made rapid strides and has re
ceived recognition from the Na
tional Office in New York. Mrs.
Sol O. Klotz, President, comments
enthusiastically on her co-workers,
and every functioning committee,
the members of which are respon
sible for the gratifying accomplish-1
ments.

To Our
Correspondents
Mrs. E. M. Manning, education
chairman, has done big things this
year. There are now three study
groups under the direction of Mrs.
Manning, Mrs. Abe Fitterman and
Mrs. L. Geffen; a book review club
under the direction of Mrs. J. M.
Rosenfeld; and Hebrew classes
being taught by Mrs. H. H. Epstein.
Our monthly Oneg Shabats, under
the most capable direction of Mrs.
L. J. Levitas, have been inspira
tional. On December 3, 1940, Ha
dassah Education Day was a great
event and covered all these fields
of educational endeavor. That
day will long remain in the mem
ories of those who attended. And
now an auspicious educational in
stitute is being planned for March
11th and 12th, at which time nine
Jewish women’s organizations in
Atlanta will join together. This
is the first time such an event has
talcen place in this city.
Two other important Hadassah
projects are Hadassah Medical Or
ganization, which takes care of all
health work in Palestine—and
Youth Aliyah, the refugee immi
gration work which has been un
dertaken in recent years. The
funds for these projects are ob
tained from the Jewish Welfare
Fund, in which Hadassah plays a
prominent role.

267 New Members
From the close of the 1939-40
season until the present date, the
membership of the Atlanta Chap
ter has grown from 807 to over
1,000 under the guidance of Mrs.
George Chait, membership chair
man; an increase of 267 new mem
bers. There has been a large at
tendance at all meetings and the
programs have been beautifully ar
