I enjoyed camp and I got tanner and tanner.” After he came home he planned a 25th anniversary party for his parents. Dr. and Mrs. Charles Rosenberg, with his brother I.J., a sports writer for the Atlanta papers. “My parents deserved it after what they went through. Then I decided to go back to school.” His mother. Bunny, reports that Sammy is making As and Bs in what he describes as a “heavy, stimulating course load.” With the new medicine he has more energy, is getting lots more exer cise, and is enjoying good health. “I feel like in six months 1 did three years’ worth of maturing that had been suppressed before.” Sammy says he bikes or runs four or five miles a day, does aerobics and weight lifting three or four days a week. He finds all these to be wonderful means of relaxation. Sammy’s ambition is to earn a Ph.D. in child and adolescent psychology and to help make the lives of other young people eas ier. He wants them to learn that “life goes on, and they can make something of themselves.” The Rosenberg family is active ly working to help other patients and parents of TS children. A Tourette Syndrome Association of Georgia has been formed to make educators aware of the dis order and its symptoms, which are often mistakenly diagnosed in school as behavioral problems. The association hopes to reduce the time lapse between onset of TS and proper diagnosis and to provide services to those in need of assistance. No government funding is available so contributions are being sought to open an Atlanta office. Its purpose is to provide education programs, professional services, parent rap sessions, patient support groups and a twice-a-year newsletter of re sources for both families and the medical community.

The Southern Israelite A Prize-Winning Newspaper You already are a Zionist... If you believe in the unity of the Jewish people and the centrality of Israel in Jewish life...

But are you acting on your beliefs? Zionism today. It all started with a dream... Zionism emerged from the deep yearning of a people to return to their Biblical homeland. A people, dispersed by time and terror, seeking a new national movement incorporating aspirations so often challenged by pogroms and torturous times. It was these aspirations for freedom that were so similar to those that gave birth to America. And their fulfillment was the creation of the State of Israel, in a way that resonates strongly in the hearts of all Americans. And in the million who have joined the Zionist Movement. Is the Zionist Movement the way? Without an organized movement in which Jews are publicly identified, there can be no democratic action. Not for peace, nor for the many monumental accomplishments of recent years The resettlement in Israel of 1,800,000 immigrants from over 100 countries. The vast educa tional program for many hundreds of thousands of youngsters in Israel and in the United States. The ini tiation of the struggle to rescue Soviet Jewry, Ethiopian Jewry, and Jews in peril through out the globe You can continue this endeavor as part of a mean ingful American Jewish community by lending voice to the Zionist Movement. By standing up and being counted. This is the American way. The way for the 1,000,000 Americans who presently declare with pride, “I am a Zionist." How can I be effective? 1. Affiliate.
