Letter to Ralph Roness about Mentoring Him for Shimush Program (1966)
Dear Ralph: Mrs. Lamm and I will be delighted to have you as our guest as part of your Shimush program in Practical Rabbinics. We would like to have you come together with your classmate, Lawrence Kaplan, for Shabbat, November 19th. Unfortunately, we do not have the facilities for you to sleep in our apartment, and therefore will keep you informed (if you will be kind enough to call me the week before) as to sleeping accommodations. Please bear in mind that most of our people utilize the ״heter” for riding an elevator operated by a non-Jew. If you accept this decision, there will, of course, be no problem. If you do not, it may be necessary for you to walk as many as twelve flights.Please let me know whether the date is satisfactory to you.Sincerely yours,Rabbi Norman LammRNL/fzP.S. You will be the guests of Rabbi and Mrs. Jung for the Friday night meal and of Mrs. Lamm and myself for lunch and Shabbat.
