Bourque checked the cash register and said apparently nothing was taken.

A half hour after the holdup, Detectives Milton Wahl and George P. Reiss and Patrolman Evans picked up a 23-year-old suspect at his home in Savannah Street. He was charged with vagrancy and will be arraigned in City Court this morning. Wahl quoted Borque as saying of the suspect: "He looks like one of the holdup men." The $621,000 loan is from the U. S.

Diamond stressed the importance of integrating the spiritual faith of Judaism and the cultural heritage of American democracy. The success of Jewish religious education, he said, depends on the degree to which this task can be achieved. Dr. Pilch said there is an urgent need for a more intensive curriculum in Jewish schools and for a greater amount of pupil time to be devoted to it. While most pupils now end their religious education at the age of 13, he said, manages to flash a sparkling smile despite losing out in contest for queen of the Ice Carnival yesterday.

A WARMING SMILE The queen of the Concord Street Playground, 8-year-old Rosemary Dumaw of 163 Merrimac believe in religious education I do believe in it. "But when you have a small percentage of youngsters leaving for religious instruction, you can introduce no new work for those who remain. Is this fair to the school? Is this fair to the youngsters?" Pupils wishing to take religious instruction during school hours now are released from class for such training upon request by their parents.

In the last six years, the university has erected nine new buildings on the River Campus, including the women's residence hall, a men's dining center, four new men's dormitories, a woman's gymnasium, swimming pool, a particle physics laboratory, and a central administration building. These structures were built at a cost of more than 10 million dollars. Target Shooter, 21, Wounds Left Foot Injured when he accidentally shot himself in the left foot while target practicing in Lima yesterday afternoon, John Dur-lcy, 21, of 22 Kappel PL, was reported in "good" condition at Strong Memorial Hospital last night. Durley said he thought his .22 raliber, single shot rifle was empty, according to police. The bullet entered the top of the left foot, just above the big toe.

In 2d Ice Carnival Carter Street Playground was transformed into a panorama of wintry wonder yesterday, as youngsters from seven northeast district city playgrounds gathered there for their second annual Ice Carnival. Some 400 boys and girls aged 6 to 17 participated in the program, wnich included speed skating, sledding and snow sculpturing. Trophies and ribbons were awarded to winners in team and individual they should regain during their high school years so they can get the amount of Jewish education they should have. This, he emphasized, is not a criticism of the public schools atx iheir policies. Rather, he said, it is simply a statement of the inadequacy of the system as it now exists.

Jewish pupils normally attend religious schools after public school hours, but other faiths schedule classes during the normal school day. Dr.

Seymour suggested that it might be possible to schedule religious classes in such a way that those not attending them would not be penalized. "Perhaps a program could be worked out in such a way to give full opportunity for religious instruction," he said, "and permit the rest of the "But I didn't want to disappoint my friend so 1 told him to send her to Buffalo, where I was working then, and I'd audition her.

Sx 1 W'4 i Miss Merrv. who has been associate county 4-H Club agent here for five years, was guest we had met the young lady before. It was at a testimonial dinner in the Rochester Club last year for Joe Lusardi of Bausch Lomb, prior to his leaving for the West Coast to be elected president of the International Stewards and Caterers Assn.

Hy Mandell was one of the major domos of the Lusardi fete and, although I knew it not then, had arranged to have Julie sing. She was good. Incidentally, the Frankie Avalon show in the War Memorial drew some 3.100 people, yet the promoters, we're told, lost about $1,500. If you can't at least break even (and that's hardly the goal) with a crowd that size, the promoting business in that field seems entirely too treacherous to attract many angels. JTEW ARTISTS make it on the first record, Bergman said.

"You can't expect Julie to hit the top with this one disc. But I have a tremendous amount of confidence in her. We'll be recording her again very soon. She also will be auditioning for the Jack Paar show in about two weeks." Julie, an unspoiled, attractive young lady who is taking any potential success in stride, isn't rock and roller in the strict sense. I would classify her, in my declining music appreciation years, as a ballad belter, if there is such a thing.

Her style is slightly reminiscent Of Eydie Gorme's. That could be one reason why Bergman is particularly enthused, for he had a major role in helping Eydie to the top. Bcrman, the son of a noted musical arranger, is a 31-year-old New Yorker who for Vk years was director of albums at ABC Paramount before going free lance. He says: "Good music is beginning to come back, and that's a delight to me because it means talented people, song writers as well as singers, will ascend to the throne once again." For that reason, he says, Julie is coming out at tfie right time. "She's very versatile, has an astonishing amount of vocal poise and a fabulous ear." All of which must mean that Julie should in tunc with tht new mood of music.
