Almost a year ago Henry Monsky Lodge committed itself to the founding of n .Scholarship Fund. The fund is to be known as the B'nai B'rith Dr. Abe Greenberg Foundation, Inn. Its purpose is to assist worthy students on the college level. Any member of B'nai B'rith. his child or grandchild is eligible for assistance if he or she meets the scholastic requirements and can establish finaii-
SQ-Yemr Mark. National attention has been growing as the Anti-Defamation League's opening events in its Fiftieth Anniversary celebration grows closer. Beginning with the meeting of the National Commission on January 31, 1903, a full year of programming is being mapped out on the occasion of this unique event. In connection with the National Commission meeting itself these developments can be reported: President John F. Kennedy will be the speaker at a "Dinner With The President" on January 31.' Hundreds of the most prominent governmental, civic, industrial, and educational leaders will participate with the ADL in honoring Mr. Kennedy as he receives this year's American Democratic Legacy award. The Columbia Broadcasting System will again carry a full hour ADL program on^its entire television n e t w o r k . WOW-TV (Channel 6) in Omaha will carry the program. Among those from Omaha who will attend and participate in the meeting in Washington. D. C, are Richard Fellman, Dr. Abe Greenberg, Ed Rosen, Millard, and Ted Sennett.

His dedication, not o n l y to B'nai B'rith causes, but to all civic and humanitarian causes for over half a century earned him this honor. He is a joiner and a worker in and for every dogood organization in our community.
