UA> CLAIMANTS IN
PALESTINE LAND DISPUTE
London (WNS)—Claims by the
heirs of Sultan Abdul Hamid
against the Palestine Government
to approximately 1,000 acres of
land in the vicinity of Gaza were
heard by a judicial committee of
the Privy Council. Two years
ago a Palestine land court had
found in favor of the claimants
after having earlier disagreed.
The government claimed the lend,
once the property of the Turkish
ruler, on the grounds that It had
been transferred to the Turkish
Government and surrendered to
Great Britain under the peace
treaty following British conquest
of the Holy Land during the last

of the excellent program, the in-
spiring address of Henry Monsky,
Supreme Lodge President, and
general good will and ideal re-
sults of the working convention.
Brother Sol Hurwitz reported
that the Houston delegates donat-
ed a sum of $500 to the Leo M.
Levi Memorial Hospital in the
name of Sarah Brier Klein.
An inspiring Second Degree in-
itiation was presented by the A.

half dozen cities of the United
States. Twenty-one boys received
their Degree. Horace Simon,
chairman of the committee on ar-
rangements, presided. Following
the meeting, refreshments were
served.
Rabbi Max Geller announces
to the general public that in the

Attractive folders, describing
the activities program for boys
and girls to be sponsored by the
“Y” Center this summer, were
mailed to the parents of over
750 Jewish children this week.
The varied program, under the
direction of experienced and
qualified activities leaders, will
begin this Monday. June 12 and
continue throughout the summer,
five days each week from Monday
through Friday. Activities to be
offered include Arts and Crafts
of all types; dramatics; folk danc-
ing; athletics; marionettes; nature
lore; aeroplane modeling; glee
club; rythm band; First Aid;
games; story-telling and a host
of other activities.
“Y” CENTER SYMPHONY
TO REHEARSE THROUGHOUT
SUMMER MONTHS
By unanimous decision of the
members of the group, the “Y”
Center Symphony Orchestra, un-
der the direction of Prof. Gregor
Jassel, will rehearse every Tues-
day evening, from 7:30 to 9 p. m.
in the “Y” Center auditorium.
This decision was made at the last
meeting and rehearsal on Tues-
day, when six new players were
added to the orchestra, bringing
the total number up to 22.
There is still room in the or-
chestra for more players. Any
persons who - play any of the
standard symphony instruments
and who wish to play in the or-
chestra will be welcomed at the
rehearsal this Tuesday evening.
Instruction in Hebrew and re-
lated subjects will be offered to
all children for one hour a day on
Monday, Tuesday, and Thurs-
day. Trained and experienced
leaders, well-versed in the play
approach to Hebrew, will be in
charge of these classes.
The entire program will be
free of charge, except that on
Wednesdays and Fridays of each
week the boys and girls will bring
20c to pay cost of transportation
from the “Y” Center to the park
and back. Everything else will
be free—all of the activities;
swimming; milk every day; trips;
and entertainment. This is a non-
profit venture—another instance
of the “Y” Center service to the
community when that service is
most needed. The financial sup-
port given to the “Y” Center by
the Houston Community Chest, of
which the "Y” Center is a parti-
cipating agency, helps largely to
make possible this summer pro-
gram for children.
“Y” CENTER CHORAL
SOCIETY HOLDS LAST
REHEARSAL OF SEASON
ON MONDAY, JUNE 12
The “Y” Center Choral Society,
under the direction of Cantor
Israel S. Krasnoff, will hold its
last rehearsal before recessing
for the summer months this Mon-
day evening, June 12, at 8 p. m.
in the Montefiore Hall of Temple
Beth El. Crawford and Lamar.
Great enthusiasm and interest
in the work of the group was
shown by all present at the last
rehearsal, when 11 new members
joined to bring the total up to
50. All members of the Choral
are urged to attend this rehearsal
at which time plans will also be
made for the fall activities.

children. Paul Kulick, Executive

program, assisted by a large staff.
function to full capacity and in-
still a hopeful tone to the dark
picture in the Holy Land. It is
only by our interest and our ac-
tive participation that Palestine
will still be made the home of
Jewish interests. “All is not lost,”
Mr. Bender stated at the last Ex-
ecutive meeting held in San An-
tonio, “and all will not be lost
if we continue to fight and back
up the men and women who are
fighting to hold England to her
sacred promise.”
