Catholic Takes Look At The Jews And Their Problems

If we can show with
reasonable certainty that
the Jews of the world are
not only not united, but are
actually fiercely divided on
major Jewish issues, we
may hope that with Gods

Dor will replace the wicked

plause. The entire program
consumed over two hours and,
again, there was another re-

directed by Matt L. Gouze are
as follows:
First on Friday, March 1st,
the group performs in Ruffs-

for the all-university aggre-

Greenburg's annual show
comes on March 4th at the
spacious Greensburg High
School Auditorium. The pro-
gram is presented, as usual,
by the st. Bruno's South
Greensburg Catholic Parish.
The Pittsburgh Tamburitz-
ans have pleased crowds
everywhere this season. With
as many as ten top soloists,
colorful dance units, and a
solid tamburitza orchestra,
the all-university group has
drawn plaudits from critics
and average music lovers
alike.
An outstanding musician
from the Farrell area, view
ing the program recently, was
quoted as saying: "The Pitts

Germs Jews.
But the very contrary is
true. Jews think for them
selves and will not be rail-
roaded into any proposition
or deal that does not convince
them.
Fiercely Divided People
Rash accusers of the Jews
appear to be blind to the glar-
ing psychological fact that
persecution, mild or severe, is
alone the force that gravi-
tates the Jews into a solid
phalanx of self-preservation.

some coin of the realm in ex-
change for American dollars.
Four hundred dinars for
one dollar seemed like a lot of
money and it took me several
days to get adjusted to these
fabulous sums of "novac"
that I had to carry on my
person.

Menus In English, Croat

Then we took time out for
lunch in a canvas covered
open air restaurant, where
the food was the best.
Menus were both in Eng
lish and CrOatian, so order
ing was simplified. The
meal was typical Croatian
style and very tasty.
Leaving the restaurant, we
made a tour of the stores. By
the time I was through I was
loaded with blouses, dolls
tablecloths, napkins, scarfs
statues, records and various
other sundry novelties. Boy
how those 10000 dinars die
