wisest of American rabbis, Dr.
Max Reichler.
Lelyveld has always been a
standout. At Columbia University,
he was editor of the daily paper,
the famed Spectator. As a rab
binical student, he not only ex
celled in his studies hut found
time for journalism and public
relations work.
As a young rabbi in Omaha he
caught the fancy of that giant of
our times, the late Henry Monsky,
and soon Rabbi Lelyveld found
himself in the seat of Dr. Abram
Sachar. Dr. Sachar went on to
Brandeis and Lelyveld was the
director of all the Hillel Founda
tions.
A member of a courageous
band of rabbinical pacifists, Lely
veld was a conscientious objec
tor during the war; one of the
men who had influenced him was
the saintly Dr. Abraham Cron-
bach, sometimes referred to as the
"Jewish Gandhi.”
An ardent Zionist, Rabbi Lely
veld led an effort to heal the
breach between various segments
of the movement. He wanted
peace not only in the world but
in the struggle for a Jewish state.

Record Sardine
Catch Almost
Sank the Boat
ASHDOD (WUP) — A record
catch of ten tons of Israeli sar
dines, which nearly sank the fish
ing vessel, was recently brought
into this harbour for an “emerg
ency landing.” The ship was so
loaded down that it was unable to
reach the Jaffa harbour without
throwing part of the catch back
into the sea.
The boat with a six-man crew
«et out from Haifa on* morning.
Captain Algabli, one of the most
experienced sardine fishermen in
the fleet, decided to go south to
exploit the unseasonably warm
weather which has brought
schools of sardines to Israel’s
shores earlier than usual. While
other fishermen have gone no
further south than Jaffa, he sail
ed down to Ashkelon where he
spotted a huge school of fish.
With a single cast of the boat’s
big net, the crew pulled ten tons
on board.
The catch, which is worth 18,-
000 Israeli pounds, weighed the
boat so that she just managed to
keep her decks above the waves.
Thanks to the calm sea the vessel
managed to limp into Ashdod,
where the crew found an under
standing attitude on the part of
the harbour master, Captain
Moshe Alon, who is himself a
former fisherman. The men were
given full facilities and the val
uable catch was soon unloaded
and on its way to the canning
plants.
His statesmanship was helpful.
Now he occupies the pulpit of
a great congregation in Cleveland,
made famous by the longtime
ministry of the dynamic Rabbi
Barnett R. Brickner. The late
Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver hailed
Lelyveld when the latter came to
enrich the life of Cleveland.
A staunch idealist, Lelyveld
was spotlighted all over the world
when he was physically attack
ed in the South where he had
gone to lend his body to the civil
rights struggle.
Eloquent and warmly Jewish,
Lelyveld is a worthy successor of
such greats as Rabbis Joachim
Prinz, Israel Goldstein and Israel
Miller. He will give the Congress
imaginative and devoted leader
ship.
If you read the New York
Times, you have noticed the glit
tering writings of another Lely
veld, the correspondent who was
recently invited to leave South
Africa because that regime
thought he was unfriendly to
them, and you may be curious to
know whether the two are re
lated. Yes, Joseph is the son of
the new president of the AJC.
Mazel tov to both!
