hy the string of Holocaust comedies?
First we chuckled through much of
“Life Is Beautiful.” Then we smiled

at Robin Williams’s portrayal of a Polish ghetto
ex—restaurateur, who provides hope to friends
and neighbors by pretending that he has a radio
which brings news of an imminent Russian
invasion. And finally, there is yet another film,
the French-Romanian “Train of Life,” which
according to reviews also treats the Holocaust
1i ght—heartedly. Will posterity remember these
versions or the more realistic portrayal of
concentration camp life in “Schindler’s List”?
You read it here first: The Associated Press’
top baseball players of the century list ranks
Sandy Koufax fourteenth with Babe Ruth, Willie
Mays, Hank Aaron, and Ted Williams heading
the group. The only pitcher rated higher than

documentary film. “The Life and Times of Hank
Greenberg” is being made. It is a 3 1/2 star, 95
minute documentary which is currently playing
in four New York area theaters. The film
focuses on his baseball prowess, particularly his
58 home run assault on Babe Ruth’s record; his
dignified withstanding of the many anti-Semitic
curses and threats by fans and other players; his
encouraging Jackie Robinson, who endured
similar bigotry; and his serving as an inspiration
during the Depression to innumerable other
Jews.

In A Time for Healing, Edward S. Shapiro’s
recent history of the Jews in modern America,
five pages are devoted to Greenberg. The
author states that from 1933-47, the ball player
was “arguably the most prominent Jew in

Jamil?

America,” and as such, contributed signifi-
cantly by his actions and statements to the
decline of anti—Semiticism in the country.

There are an estimated 13.5 million Jews in
the world with the United States having the
largest number, 5.6 million. Israel’s Jewish
population numbers 4.8 million; its non-Jewish
population totals about 1.3 million.

In the United States, Phoenix, Arizona has
attracted the largest number of Jews in 1998
with its population increasing from about
70,000 to 83,000. Other communities with large
increases are Tampa, Florida; Palm Springs,
California; Greater Bridgeport, Connecticut;
Atlanta, Georgia; and Portland, Oregon.

During the first quarter of 1999, Russian
immigration to Israel increased by 116% with
7,933 Jews leaving their homeland, mainly
because of anti—Semitism.

“Newsweek” has listed Tel Aviv as being
among the top ten world hi-tech capitals due to
the immigration of former Soviet scientists and
the training of soldiers in the Israel Defense
Forces.

According to an organization that studies
student achievement, Israeli and French 12th

 

At this writing. 13 Iranian vaxs, part ol a
thriving community that has dwindled from
80,000 to 30,000, face the death penalty on
trumped up charges of spying for “World
Arrogance” and “The Zionist Conspiracy,”
code words for the United States and Israel.
The White House has expressed its concern
about this matter and numerous Jewish groups
have protested.

According to a story in the “New York
Times,” the latest information about Tamir
Goodman, the 17-year old Orthodox basketball
star, is that he is heading for Towson Univer-
sity, a Baltimore school. The article indicated
that his refusal to play on Saturdays had
caused the University of Maryland to recon-
sider recruiting him. a

CKJF LEISURE CLUB UPDATE

By Ruth Moser

What does the Leisure Club and the Lexington St.
Patrick’s Day Parade have in common? We both
canceled an event because of the weather, and we
were both right in doing so. For the Leisure Club it
snowed; for the parade it rained.

So we went to Szechuan Garden in February and
to the Coach House in March. Sorry I had to miss the
March luncheon. That Wednesday I flew to Sandy’s,
and Karen drove down for a few days to be with us.
It was great.

We have a magnificent event planned for April. but
unfortunately, it has to be April 6th. That doesn’t
leave you much time to think about it. and to RSVP,
but sometimes that is how it is. Try to come and enjoy

the TAI Adult Chorus under the direction of Deborah
Isenstadt and the good food that Annette and I and
our helpers (we hope) prepare.

Again. on May 18 Tomas Milch will inform us
about important financial matters, and in June the
group from Louisville will entertain us at a luncheon at
the Temple.

Meanwhile, I am busy planning my trip to
Micronesia, Pohnpei to be exact. Let me know if you
know where that is, or if you are curious about where
it is. Such excitement. This means that you will have
to kvetch and kvell without me for a while. but like
General McArthur. I shall return.

See you at the April luncheon. at

The Central Kentucky Jewish Federation’s Community Relations Committee (CRC) has been
working in several areas of social and political concern. As reported earlier in Shalom,
representatives from the CRC went to Frankfort to oppose legislation allowing for the posting of
the Ten Commandments. Following is an article reporting on this event:

Report On Legislative Day In Frankfort

by Susan Cantor

he Community Relations Committee of the

Central Kentucky Jewish Federation along

with the Community Relations Council of the
Jewish Community Federation of Louisville, sponsored
a Legislative Day in Frankfort on Tuesday, February

15, 2000. Informal meetings were held with seven
legislators to inform them of the concerns that the

' afiWVe ill-regard t0 the

proliferation of bills that call for the posting of the Ten

Commandments in every public school classroom in
Kentucky. We met in room 238 of the Capitol Annex
Building which overlooks the Capitol Building. Below
the window was a walkway lined with signs with the
Ten Commandments on them. Throughout the morning
a crowd slowly gathered and buses dropped off school-
children for a noon-time rally. J uxtaposed with the event

outside of the window
were the seven legisla-

faxed to them explaining our position regarding the
posting of the Ten Commandments. The seven
legislators that were able to meet with us were Sen.
Boswell, Sen. David Karem, Sen. Marshall Long and
his wife, Sen. Tim Shaughnessy, Rep. Ron Crimm,
Rep. Susan Westrom and Rep. Kathy Stein.

As these legislators came in we took the opportu-
posling was inappropriate. Wk: reminded thcm ol Illc 40“
diversity of the religious faiths of their constituents
around the Commonwealth and of the prohibition
against the mixing of church and state that is found in
the lst Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Our
discussions with them included how the posting would
infringe on individual liberties and would do nothing to
stop the outbreak of violence in our schools. We
pointed out that the separation of church and state
clause in the lst Amendment was intended to protect
minorities. Our group also took the opportunity to point
out to the legislators that the Council of Churches had
come out against the posting.

Several of the senators were sympathetic to our
position but felt that they would have to vote for the
senate bill for political reasons. It should be noted that
Sen. Emesto Scorsone cast the only vote against the

The Lexington Cemetery launches website

Lexington, KY—As Americans try to keep pace
with the technological changes encompassing the
world, many major businesses, corporations, and
households are in the process of developing websites.
The necessity to be connected to each other through
the Internet has affected every facet of human
endeavors. Even The Lexington Cemetery, that

organizes information on people who have been
interred, entombed, cremated and memorialized on its

grounds. Scalf said, “Now that we have accomplished

this project, we are ready to provide information
online, thereby allowing anyone interested to research

their farmly ancesz and to learn about their historical

community memorial grounds.”

 

observed its 150th anniversary in 1999,
has developed a website.

In an attempt to provide more conve-
nient access to information about the
cemetery, The Lexington cemetery
launched \vww.lexcem.0rg oday. Initially,
the website includes information pertain—
ing to cemetery products and services.

During 2000, the website will be
expanded to include sections on cem-
etery history and historically significant
people interred on its grounds, such as
US. Senator Henry Clay and C.S.A.
General John Hunt Morgan. Additionally,
a genealogical section containing general
information about people memorialized at
The Lexington Cemetery will be included
in Phase II of the website to enable
