Jewish Institute
18th Anniversary
Slated for Sunday

The 25th anniversary OF the
founding of the Jewish. Institute
of Religion will be celebrated py
its alumni and friends, Sunday
evening, March 10Th, at dinner
in honor of DR.. Stephen S. Wise,
it's founder and president, to be
held in the Starlight Roof of the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.
Founded on the principle OF
freedom of religious belief within
the Jewish fold, the Institute is
the only rabbinical seminary
where teachers and students en-
brace all Jewish viewpoints.
Among it's 1876 graduates are
rabbis of conservative, reform and
orthodox congregations, B'nai
Birth Hillel directors at colleges
and universities, and chaplains in
the United States armed forces.
During World War II, one-third of
it's alumni enlisted as chaplains
in the military forces. In 1915,
the institute expanded it's pro-
gram to give Jewish background
to Jewish center and community
workers.

In addition to each of the units
being self-gOverning, the previous

This body consists of two dele

It is the job of this council

the Jewish DPS have a set-up

Meetings and discussions of the

Best proof of the projects effec-
