Atlanta Couple in Israel
On Young Leadership Mission
Mr and Mrs. Mendel Romm
Jr. of Atlanta are among those
participating in the 1968 UJA
Young Leadership Mission to Is
rael. Mr. Romm is a member of
the UJA’s Young Leadership
Cabinet, sponsors of the mis
sion.
Members of the Mission left
New York on July 1, and were
to stop in Marseilles, Rome and
Israel, returning to New York
on Friday, July 26.
The Mission developed in res
ponse to the enthusiastically ex
pressed wishes of members of
the Young Leadership Cabinet.
It was the virtually unanimous
reaction of the Young Leaders
who participated in the past
seven Missions that they under
went the experience of a life
time.
The Mission is designed just
for Young Leaders of American
Jewish communities between the
ages of 25 and 40, and will be
geared especially for this group.
It will visit Europe and Israel.
In Marseilles they will meet
with European Jewish lay
leaders, Joint Distribution Com
mittee overseas personnel and
immigrants on their way to Is
rael.
In Israel the group will meet
with government, military and
Jewish Agency officials, visit
the held territories, tour the
length and breadth of Israel,
visit Malben (JDC) installations
and an IEF School. They will
also welcome newcomers upon
arrival and meet with them as
they settle in their homes, in
spect biblical, ancient and new
Israel. All in all, they will par
ticipate in an in-depth study of
UJA overseas operations.
B nai BVith Lodge Glorifies
Summer Days for Youngsters
SAM APPEL AND PERRY MORRIS assist at a softball game
at the AJCC. The teams, students from Isaiah Reynolds School,
are participants in the summer recreational program of Atlanta
Lodge 1773, B’nai B’rith.
Over 50 youths from Atlanta’s
Isaiah Reynolds School have
been participating in the sum
mer recreational program of At
lanta Lodge No. 1773 of B’nai
B’rith, president Dr. Bernard
Kahn announced.
The weekly program, coordi
nated by president-elect William
Waronker and board member
Sam Appel, involves an after
noon of softball and swimming
at the Atlanta Jewish Commun
ity Center each Wednesday for
the youngsters. The children are
being transported from the
school on Flat Shoals Avenue,
S. E., by buses provided by Fort
MacPherson and the Kirkwood
Community Center. At the Cen
ter the three-hour recreational
activities are supervised by
members of Atlanta Lodge, who
serve as softball coaches and
umpires, and assist the Center’s
lifeguard at the pool.
Waronker e x p r e ssed the
Lodge’s appreciation for the co
operation received from the
AJCC and members of the Jew
ish community. Philip Sunshine
(Sunshine Department Store)
provided tennis shoes and bath
ing trunks for those youngsters
who could not provide these
items. Softball bats and balls
and a first-aid kit were donated
by Harold Goldstein (Lee Prod
ucts Co., Inc.), and softball
gloves and balls were provided
by Jack Zaglin (Atlanta Army
& Navy Store).
President Kahn stated that the
Lodge is pleased to have a
chance to provide this service
for youths who otherwise would
have little opportunity to par
ticipate in organized sports ac
tivities during the summer. At
lanta Lodge plans to continue
the weekly program the entire
summer.

New Atlanta
Publishers
State Plans
Two promi n e n t Atlantans
have announced their formation
of Camelot Publishing Company,
a wholly-owned Georgia firm
established to commission and
publish books and other mater
ials.
The two are Alvin and David
Saul, who said the new firm is
headquartered at 820 Spring
Street, N. W., Atlanta. Camelot
Publishing Company will short
ly announce the release of its
first book.
“We believe it is one of the
most important books to be is
sued in years,” said Alvin Saul.
“And we believe it will have
nationwide impact.”
“We have long seen the need
to offer additional publishing
opportunities to writers who
have felt they must always look
to New York as a sole market
for their efforts,” a spokesman
for Camelot said. “We believe
the establishing of Camelot in
Atlanta — the home of ‘Gone
With the Wind'—will attract the
best talent in the nation. We
have already been inundated
with manuscripts, some from top
writers.
“While we are receptive to ap
praising authors’ works, we are
committed to a basic principle:
The Camelot imprimatur is res
erved solely for works of qual
ity.”
Alvin Saul is a graduate of the
University of Georgia. David
Saul was graduated from Geor
gia Tech.
