Exchange with R. Green about Soviet Jewry Lecture Series (1969)
Dear Norman, When you were here last September, I mentioned a Soviet-Jewry series that I was going to prepare. The series is now scheduled for March 13, 20, 27. I am enclosing a copy of the first draft of our program. We will plan to combine two sessions each evening. It is my hope to have two representatives from every congregation and Jewish organization in attendance. The program is being co-sponsored by the Philadelphia Jewish Relations Council. During the past months we have had a lunchtime discussion group led by Rabbi Yaakov Homnick; the idea for which was prompted by the class you are giving at the 92nd Street Y. We have had 16 people indicating interest in attending, their busy schedules prevented no more than three or four from coming each week. We will have to go out now and find other people who are not as busy to sign up as well. The program has been well received and we will continue with it. Please give my best regards to Mindy. Marge and the girls are doing well and have taken a great liking to Philadelphia. I hope to see you again sometime soon. With all best wishes, Rabbi Sidney Green, Director, Adult Education
