Leo Durocher, after seeing me per-
form on the mound, silently beck
oned me to the showers. Later,
passing the showers where l was
venting my grief in song, Leo is
supposed to have said, And don't
try to make living as a singer
either But this story is obviously
false, since Leo never beckoned
anyone silently to the showers.
"What actually happened was
that my mother, learning that /
was about to realize my life's am
bition to become "Bum," appeared
on the field and dragged me off by
the ear"
Sang At Resorts
Merrill got an early singing job

throw me into the nearest swim
ming pool" says Merrill. Really
loved music, those boys"
A prominent New York artists
representative discovered" Merrill

Civic Unity Seeking
Civil Rights Statute

The Greater Phoenix Council for
Civic Unity was making a rigorous
effort this week to obtain the legis-
lature's approval of a civil rights
bill.
The measure, docketed as House
Bill 158, would prohibit discrimina-
ton in public accommodations such
as restaurants, hotels and theaters
by reason of race, creed or color.
This type of discrimination would
be considered public nuisance, and
an injunctive procedure is provided
to halt it. Persons Disseminated
against also might recover from
500 to $500 in penalties from the
offending establishments.
The Civic Unity Council urged
its members to contact their legis-
lators and ask support of the bill.

Lending Society
Will Branch Out

Society set about this week to
broaden it's activities and increase
it's services to the community.

titled public accountant and his re-
port will be made public to demon
strate the effectiveness of the
group. Then an intensive drive for

loan committee-Joseph H. Cohen,

The Metro Divisions progress
was made public when report was
filed with the Jewish Community
Council board of directors last week
by Harold Alpert, Metro chairman,
and his associates, Joe Burdman
and Jack Kempner.
Other divisions have shown con-
siderable progress, it was reported,
but they still are far short of their
respective goals.
Meanwhile, the board voted to
negotiate an immediate loan from
local banks as an emergency ad-
vance to the UJA. Last year a SIM
liar advance was made. It's total
was $4,000.
Swig Given Thanks
A special guest at the board
meeting was Ben Swig, San Fran
cisco hotel magnate and philan-
thropist, who represents the UJA.
He was given vote of thanks for
his efforts III behalf of the Phoenix
campaign.
The Miami Beach inaugural of
UJA's national campaign keynoted
year of Embarrassing activity in
5000 communities throughout the
country.
Edward M. M. Warburg, general
chairman, hailed the new record of
initial giving as "another great
demonstration by American Jews
of their utmost concern for human
life and human liberty"
DIR. Joseph j. Schwartz, executive
vice-chairman of the UJA, termed
the 11,341, 900 contribution ga re-
markable beginning in this years
drive to raise $151, 100000 and
thereby help assure victory for
Israel as she fights her second war
of independence-this time for eco
nomic independence"
Reinforcement for Israel
The vice-chairman stressed that
the record sum contributed consti-
tutes "a first reinforcement for
the new state as she fights this
grim war for economic survival"
He urged American Jews to fol-
low up "with the kind of generosity
that can help the United Jewish
Appeal achieve, by June 80, two
thirds or $100,000,000 of its $751;
100000 goal"
The United Jewish Appeal, which
is the largest voluntary fund-rais-
ing agency in the United States,
finances the immigration, settle
ment, welfare and rehabilitation
programs of three constituent
bodies operating in Israel, Europe,
Arab lands and in this country.
These constituents are the United
Israel Appeal, Joint Distribution
Committee and United Service for
New Americans.
Ben -GuriOn Sends Message
The action here came in response
to warnings by the Appeals leaders
that Israel's fate and future depend
to a large extent on success of the
UJA's 1862 campaign. 1t was given
further impetus by special mes
sage from Israel Prime Minister
David Ben-Gurion.
Ben-Gurion declared that his
country "is beset by grave and
dangerous difficulties which the
young state cannot master without
the continuous and selfless coopera-
ton of Jewish men and women the
world over"
