I Heord It On Thursday

High School Students Here Debated AWACS

Blain

By MICHAEL BLAIN (Gislea is on vocation this

week-ed.)

Some of us adults can learn from our children. Social

Studies students at the Learning Unlimited Cent r a 1 High School were required to preI pare a debate on any current topic. Four stuI dents decided to debate the

subject of the sale of AWACS to Saudi Arabia. The two opposed to the sale, Dan Blain and Martin Nitsun, invited Congressman Andy Jacobs as their “witness.” Not to be outdone, the other students invited Dr. George Halabi, president of the Indiana Chapter of the National Association of Arab Americans. The two “witnesses” were questioned and cross examined. The arguments were predictable but as I listened to the “debate” I was impressed with the resourcefulness of

our children.

YIDDISH ANYONE? The Yiddish Club of the JCCA has been reorganized and revitalized under the leadership of Jules Dorfman. Members meet monthly to “shmoos” in Yiddish. At the Jan. meeting Rabbi Abraham Grossbaum discussed Chassidism. The Feb. 7 program will feature Elaine Sandy who will lead members in a Yiddish Singalong. Sandy teaches music at the jCC child care program.

THE YOUNG TOO:AZA chapter 246 offers what their flyer calls “one of the most potent and important programs of the year.” The program — tonight (Jan. 22) at the Overlook Clubhouse at 7 p.m. — will feature Sgt. Bill Essex of the IPD who will talk about “something that may effect us all: drugs.” The colorful police officer has appeared on the NBC Today Show and is scheduled to appear on the Tonight Show. All teenagers are invited. I urge all parents to encourage their children to attend. (A Sabbath Service will preceed the program.) MAZEL TOY: Last week this column welcomed back Irving Moschel to Indianapolis. This week we wish him and Anne Maze! Tov on the birth of their fourth grandson, Brett David. Brett’s parents, Richard and Michelle Moschel, live in

Slow down as you drive on Hoover Road and read the messages.

And it’s a small world: Miriam Epstein, Stern College freshman accidentally “bumped" into Jane Gabovitch and Abbe Hodes in New York City.

VIP VISITORS: Our Sabra GRANDSON, Eliyahu Yosef, together with his parents Marti

and Julie, visited us, the Blains, briefly from Jerusalem. Jerusalem born and bred, fivemonths old Elie seemed pleased with the Hoosier surroundings in spite of the cold weather.

Also visiting the Yovits family, were daughter Mara (Columbus) and Philip Friedman (Anita’s father) from New York City.
