Testimonial Feb. 20 To Honor
Industrialist, Philanthropist
The story and history of Israel
Rogosin, New York industrialist
and philanthropist, who will be
honored in Atlanta on Thursday,
Feb. 20, at a testimonial dinner
at the Progressive Club spon
sored by the Atlanta Hebrew
Academy, reads like a success
novel filled with adventure and
love of life.
Deseribed by Dr. Sidney Q.
Janus, who will present Mr.
Rogosin with a scroll, as a ‘‘man
of realism,” the guest of honor
believes that one of the major
secrets of success is to recogn
ize facts and not to fool one’s
self.
“He is hard working," Dr.
Janus continued, ‘‘a man of quiet
tastes who has built a great in
dustrial organization by his per
sonal formula of recognizing and
sifting facts, then acting on them
with daring.”
The 71-year old president and
chairman of the board of Beau-
nit Mills, Inc., was eight years
of age when he came to this
country. Formal schooling was
limited, but he points out that
he learned a great deal more
than books can teach by observ
ing life. As a member of the
Boards of Trustees of such fam
ous schools as Brandeis Univer
sity and the New School, Mr.
Rogosin has probably spent more
hours in recent years “at school”
than he did as a child. Certainly
thousands of young people are
benefiting from his educational
efforts in their behalf.
An active deep sea fisherman,
the industrialist plays golf and
travels thousands of airplane
miles yearly. He says keeping
busy keeps him young.
The public is invited to attend
the 7 p.m. dinner at the Pro
gressive Club to honor this phil
anthropist who has made some
$4,000,000 available to institu
tions of learning through gifts in
stock for his $20,000,000 plant in
Israel now under construction.
The Atlanta Hebrew Academy is
one of “these many fine institu
tions,” Dr. Janus added.

rectors and presidents of Syna
gogues and school organizations.
These workshops, too, will be

cational Center.
On Monday, Feb. 17, at 10

Schools.” This workshop will be

Lewis Cenker, Bureau presi

cation is designed to meet the
specific needs of specific groups
concerned with Jewish educa
tion—teachers, rabbis and school
directors, PTA officials and
school board members. It is the
hope of the conference commit
tee that these workshops will
lead to a deeper understanding
of some of the important prob
lems in Jewish education and
the action that can be taken by
all schools to bring about a bet-
er Jewish educational system in
our community.”
