A (Sort of) Personal Note From
Norman Shavin:
“Loxfinger’s” Creator
Comes Sunday,
October 23rd
Author and humorist, Sol
Weinstein, will open the “Six
in the Center” series with
moderator, Norman Shavin on
Sunday October 23 at 8:30 p.m.
Admission $1.00.
Reception will conclude the
program.
Dear Friend:
This is not a request for
money. It’s an invitation—to “my
place.” “My place” for a half-
dozen nights is The Atlanta
Jewish Community Center, which
asked me to prepare a series of
unusual evenings . . . evening
that will stimulate, entertain
and . . . maybe . . . provoke you.
What we’re offering you, then,
is a set of six “Jewish happen
ings.”
A “happening” is . . . well, you
start with an exciting idea, and
then things happen. The promise
is this: The evenings in our “Six
at the Center” series will be
unique. When each evening is
ended, you’ll know you’ve had an
experience.
A few years ago, I had the
pleasure of initiating the “Six in
the Center” series. . . offering
such attractions as Ralph McGill,
“The Jew In Drama”, etc. Re
sponse was excellent, and we
hope you’ll come back for more
this season. The format is simple:
An individual or a strong panel
makes a brief, provocative pres
entation (no sermons allowed)

marking off the miles on Nov. 1

How far can you swim during

36 laps is Vi mile, 54 laps is V4
mile and 72 laps is a mile.
Come join the fun.
Swim as slow or as fast as you
like, but let’s start getting our

The Junior Hostesses . . .
Who Are They
The Junior Hostesses are a
group of young adults ranging
from 18 years to 21 years. They
meet as a group twice a month.
Once in a general meeting, the
other time in helping to wel
come the many Jewish military
personnel from Ft. Benning, Ft.
Gordon and other military in
stallations.
They form an integral part in
providing the social activity for
our Jewish personnel. Some of
the girls are seniors in high
school, others have graduated
and are working, others are at
tending local colleges. Yet, all of
the girls feel that in some small
way they are doing their part,
something that is worthwhile and
by the way having a good time
meeting new faces. Can you join?
Yes . . . just call the AJCC—
TR. 5-7881.
Things got back to a more
normal pace last week, meaning
that the old pros did better, the
average guys did about average,
and the newcomers learned who
not to bet against—and for some
strange reason, everybody still
wants a wager with Moe Silver .
. . It’s not really fair to hit a
man when he’s down, but since
that doesn’t mean a thing to this
writer, you may be interested in
knowing that Morris Manning is
now betting Howard Aronin
straight up—and Morris is fav
ored . . . The high man for the
week was no surprise at all, as
Harris Silverman, the little old
screwmaker, manufactured a pre
cision-made 215-594 series . . .
And right behind him was the
luggage king whose customers get
his line mixed up with Paper-
Mate, Hank dayman who glued
together a strong set of 214-578 .
. . Third high was former choke
artist Sid Leventhal (that should
be choker artist, Adolph, he sells
pearls—on second thought, leave
it stand) who strung together a
gleaming 200-567 necklace . . .
And now for the interlopers . .
. But first, we have a new BAW-

Committee Meets
The Executive Committee of
the Life Begins at 50 Club: Mrs.
Rose Weintraub, Mrs. Mollie Ton-
tak, Mrs. J. Tasman, Mrs. J.
Landall, and Mrs. Gottfelt met
and prepared plans for the meet
ings to be held in October, No
vember and December.
These include: A trip to Warm
Springs, Ga., celebration of Unit
ed Nations and Veterans Day, A
Thanksgiving luncheon, celebra
tion of Jewish Book Month,
Hanuka party and New Year’s
party. The programs will include
speakers, entertainers, and par
ticipation on the part of mem
bers of the group.
The committee is seeking the
participation of its membership
in recruiting new members to the
group.
LER OF THE WEEK to report,
and if we’re a little late with the
news, please excuse us—a sweet
little girl bom to my captain and
his roommate, Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Rosenberg, name of Marla Gail,
which makes everything turn up
rosy—congrats . . . And speaking
of babies, Moe Silver cried like
one after a 141, but was finally
pacified with a 211 his next time
out ... In other freak games,
Eddie Rechtman looked a lot like
his brother Leon with a 218-552
thing, especially before he start
ed his first game . . . Newcomer
Buddy Himber, the menswear
monarch at North DeKalb Cen
ter, put on a big style show with
a 210 and a 202, but then hit the
skids with a marked-down 136—
he’ll do worse yet unless he lets
out his pants about 2 inches . . .
Another style setter put on one
short exhibition as Jerry Gold
smith chirped like a cricket with
a 200 single, his first and last of
the season . . . Phil Teper proved
that all that goes up must come
down with a 210, and then dis
proved that fact with a 137 . . .
Jerry Barmann-handled the pins
one game only for a 208 . . . Har
ry Gerson, the light fixture
prince, lit up with a flashy 210,
and then the batteries went
d-e-a-d . . ..
And last and definitely least,
Frank (Bojangles) Alexander
sparked his team to defeat with
a powerful 105 demonstration,
and next week is going to chal
lenge Venus de Milo head to head
—he’s really a sport, ain’t he? . .
. In defense of the bad bowling
last week, this fact must be
brought out — the lanes were
breaking from right to left as
much as 30 to 40 inches on every
alley except numbers one and
two, and the bowlers had a leg
itimate gripe, and thanks to this
Pre-School Staff
Charter Members
The newly formed Georgia As
sociation on Young Children is
the professional organization for
people interested in promoting
the health, welfare and educa
tion for the child under the age
of six. The Ga. Chapter will be
the local affiliate for both the
regional SACUS and nationwide
NAEYC. Pre school educators as
well as professionals in related
disciplines recognize the impor
tance of such an organization and
are giving the organization en
thusiastic support
The charter meeting was held
in Athens, Ga. and well over a
hundred members representing
the entire State of Ga. were pres
ent. Mrs. Martin Greene and
Mrs. Ralph Sacks of the AJCC
preschool department represented
the Center and reported their
enthusiastic reaction to both the
Nursery School and Center’s pro
fessional staffs.
Mrs. Sacks was elected to
represent this district of the
State for a two year term on the
organization’s executive board. “I
am so pleased that we have an
organization that will be profes
sional in its outlook in meeting
the needs of the young child,*
she said. “I expect much stimu
lation of ideas and raising of
standards which will enhance
our own school and staff. I am
looking forward to serving on
the board and am excited at the
prospect of being able to work in
the organization almost from its
inception."

writer, the reason was found and
corrected—bowling on 1 and 2
was without a doubt the heaviest
team in the country—Nate Lov-
inger (280), Buck Scheinman
(295), Bill Sullivan (200), Sandy
Misikoff (215), and newcomer
Dr. Joe Izenstark (approx. 210)
. . . They were moved to lanes
7 and 8 the next game, and after
the rest of tne bowlers adjusted
to the alleys, things went much
better, altho the building still
leans slightly toward the north .
. . Morris (The Munster) Rob
bins continued his losing battle
with the pins with a delicate 127
—the only possible way he could
get two strikes in a row is by
using the gadget they show those
instant replays with on TV . . .
Well, that’s about all the insults
for this week . . . See you in the
alleys soon.
