Ghefto program moving experience
The Warsaw Ghetto Memorial Evening oh Sunday, April 25, was impressive and moving from beginning to end.
For the past ten years, a committee organized by Canadian Jewish Congress, headed by Samuel Heller, and initially composed of former residents of Poland (the committee has since been expanded to include other members of the Community) have planned and arranged these annual Remembrance services.
Over 350 people attended as the program began with the chanting of "El Moleh Rach-amim" by Cantor Tibor Moses. This was followed by the lighting of six commemorative candles hwioring the six million who perished in the holocaust. Sol Jackson was narrator. Following this Mr. Heller addressed the audience and urged them to keep alive the memory of the martyrs.
A highlight of the evening was the dramatic presentation from "One Hundred Children" by the Centre Drama Group, under direction of Miss Dorothy Davies. Mrs. David Claman played the lead role with warm understanding. Many a tear was shed in sympathy for the "children" and their pro-*blems.
Dr. Raphael Levine of Seattle, the guest speaker, expressed sincere admiration for the calibre of the program. He stressed that "man is only three weeks away from barbarism" and warned that we must always be on the alert for evidences of hatred.
The program concluded with many fine selections by the Centre Choir, under direction of Mrs. Elizabeth Wolak. Claire Klein, accompanied by Mrs, Wolak, sang two beautifully rendered solos.
