SOILLE SAN DIEGO HEBREW DAY SCHOOL
SAN DIEGO—While San Diego Jewish World has gained its place, there is so much more we could do in presenting to the San Diego Jewish community and to Jewish communities all over the world a daily publication of news and commentary.
I am looking for partners who would like to build up San Diego Jewish World with a new graphic design, increased content, and expanded advertising. These prospective partners don't have to invest a dime in our publication—we really don't want your money. We are looking for two things far more important: your ideas and your hard work.
If you are as committed as we are to keeping the Jewish community informed, and to its well-being, and if you have skills that will help us accomplish our task--such skills as web designing, or selling advertising, or web mastering, or writing and editing--we invite you to contact us to discuss your interest in bettering this publication.
I can be reached at editor@sandiegojewishworld.com. Please provide me with some background about yourself, tell me your skills, and how you would like to see San Diego Jewish World. I will respond, and perhaps set up a meeting with you to discuss further your ideas and potential participation in San Diego Jewish World. — Donald H. Harrison, editor and publisher

Southwestern Jewish Press, April 14, 1950, page 5
“All of the young Jewish people in San Diego will be given an opportunity to make their contributions to the United Jewish Fund. A series of affairs has been planned to reach every Jewish youthin town.” This is a statement jointly issued by Mrs. Arthur Goodman, David Anfanger and Richard Silberman, Chairman of the Young People’s Division.
A large dinner-dance at the Marine Room of the San Diego Hotel on Saturday Evening, April 22, will climax a series of smaller events. Norman Holtzman and Larry Gross are arranging an exciting evening capped by star studded floor show. Ernest Michel, a Jewish youth who barely escaped death at the hands of the Nazis, will be the speaker and guest-of-honor for the evening. Pete Nuberg and his band will provide music for your dancing pleasure. Reservations for this big affair can be made by phoning F-0171.
Sonya Goodman announces that a series of luncheons is being arranged for all girls and young women in their various age brackets. The invitations are being drawn up and will be in the mail shortly. Sonya is being assisted by Joan Steinman, State College member of the youth cabinet.
All boys from 12-16 are invited to a gala Sports Night to be held at the Temple Center, Saturday evening, April 15. Dave Anfanger, chairman of the event has prepared an absorbing program of football, movies and several interesting speakers. There will be free hot dogs and soda pop to keep the appetites of hungry boys satisfied.
Herb Solomon, cabinet member, has contacted the principals of the three Sunday Schools and has helped them arrange U.J.F. programs or assemblies at their schools. The indications are that the Sunday Schools will combine the individual contributions into one large contribution from the school.
All of the young Jewish people in San Diego are aware of their responsibility to Israel and to their local and national organizations. The Young People’s division will help them channel their desire to help. Every contribution is urgently needed and earnestly requested.
Clear April 22 for the dinner dance and get your reservations in early. Phone F-0171 for your reservations now.

S.D. Hebrew Home for the Aged
Southwestern Jewish Press, April 14, 1950, page 7
On Sunday, April 23rd, at 2 p.m., the Guardians and women’s Auxiliary will meet at the San Diego Hebrew Home for the Aged to participate in the sixth annual meeting of the Home. All members should be present to nominate and elect officers and trustees, and discuss future plans for the Home>
The “Happy Old Timers” will gather for the luncheon and a social afternoon April 26th. If you are 65 years of age or over you are welcome to attend. Just phone Mrs. Saul Chenkin, at R-6155.
In recent years it has been established that the aged need recreation just as much as young people do. Possessed of a surplus of time, old people welcome opportunities for self-expression with enthusiasm. They want to meet new people to replace the loss of old friends. They want to be liked for what they are, to enjoy new experiences, to continue to learn, to belong and enjoy status in the community.
Can you spare a few hours to visit with the old folks? Perhaps you’d like to arrange for an afternoon or evening of entertainment. You will find yourself rewarded for your time and effort. Join now either the Ladies auxiliary or the Guardians and become an active member fo the San Diego Hebrew Home for the aged.
Seders at the home were beautiful affairs. As has been his custom for the past six years Mr. Joseph Dembo conducted the Passover services in the usual tradition fashion. The guests and visitors had a most enjoyable time.
