"But," she insisted, "unless we examine our research more carefully, many dollars of U.S. aid will continue to be wasted." Although American scientists try to reproduce exact growing conditions in Kenya, many results are unsatisfactory. "We need better information about the people of Kenya," Schneider said. "They are desperate for knowledge and shared technology." She also spoke of the genuine concern of the people who recognize their problem of overpopulation.

"The New Year is on people's minds now, but we've been thinking about t he New Year for two months. We've geared ourselves all summer to Rosh Hashanah, Yorn Kippur and the details. I don't have time to think about Rosh Hashanah dinner. It doesn't leave me a lot of time to enjoy the holidays. I need a second day. "This year I'm planning to go to Hillel the second day of Rosh Hashanah because I need a day to sit and worship, reflect and think about my life, the world and other issues. When I'm here during Rosh Hashanah, I'm concerned about emerge ncies, the sound system working, is the lighting good enough, what are we going to do if we run out of prayer books. " Personally, this particular New Year has specia1 significance. Shira and I are expecting our second child within the next three weeks. T he baby could come any time. We have no control over this. It could be on Yorn Kippur. It could be on Rosh Hashanah or Succot. It could be on one of those crucia1 days when we are preparing the synagogue. When the baby comes, I'm going to have to say the Temple comes second and having this baby comes first because our wo rld revolves around our family. "This child, God willing a healthy child, is to be eve n most significant because my father died in February fro m a painful cancer illness. Two days befo re he died, we found out that Shira was pregnant and we told him. We we re ve ry very blessed to· have this knowledge to tell him before he died. He couldn't communicate ve rbally, but he communicated in his own way that the baby was his replacement. "Our new baby marks a new beginning. T hat's my New Year. A family grows and we have so much to look forward to ... two bags of diapers a week. But, to me it's happiness. After mourning for my father, the only light at the end of the tunnel was that there was another human being coming. "These are my reflections."

Tina Feldman, Freshman, Lincoln School "I know it's going to be a hard year because freshman year is always tough whether it's a freshman in high school or a freshman in college or first year at anything else. It's a1ways tough even if you've been in a school a long time, when you're a freshman, you're considered a new kid on the block. I think it will work out. " As far as responsibilities and commitments to the Temple and my religion goes, I've always had strong feelings towards that. I've never had any reason not to. I'm being confirmed this year. and as a member of the 100th confirmation class of Temple Beth-El, even though I'm the youngest member, I still feel as muc h a part of that class as the oldest person is. That I think will wo rk to my advantage . . . not because the teacher happens to be my uncle. I just think that's fate working. I'm glad to have the opportunity and to be part of such a wonderful Temple community that does so many good things. "I watch the NBC Nightly news and I read the paper about all the violence in the wo rld particularly in South Africa. It's horrible to think that because someone is of a different race or color, that people tum against them. Hitler turned against the Jews because he wa nted control. This isn't quite the same. T his is a li ttle milder but on the same principle that blacks don't belong, but they belong just as much as we do. Blacks have contributed many things to our society and there are many famous athletes in the sports world. "J ust because a government doesn't like a people, it shouldn't try to wipe it out and have policies against it. In hurting these people the South African government is only hurting itself. T he Blacks pay taxes the way everybody else does. " I'm looki ng fo rward to the In-Site Project at school because it entails a lot of things I like. The members of this club stay at the Biltmore fo r three days in January.

We Are The World ... Aren't We?

One of the most popular songs this past spring and summer was "We Are The World", sung by leading rock and roll stars. All of the money made from the sale of records went to fight hunger and starvation in Africa. And the song, of course, tells us that everyone is responsible for our world - both the good parts and the parts that include people dying of starvation.

Our High Holiday prayer book is filled with many of the same ideas that are included in this song. When we ask for forgiveness on Yorn Kippur, we do not say, "Forgive me because I have sinned." We pray, "Forgive us for we have sinned." Jews understand that we are responsible for each other and for the world. That's why we ask forgiveness for sins that we didn't do. Jews believe that if one person commits a sin, all of us must ask to be forgiven.

It's easy to imagine that it's other people's job to clean up our world: to end pollution, to end crime, to feed the hungry. But we But, you might say, "I'm only a child!" No matter how old or learn on Yorn Kippur that it's our job. For example, the Haftorah young you are, you can start to change our world. For example, portion on Yorn Kippur teaches us that one of the reasons we fast bringing food to the food basket for the poor in your city is a way for (don't eat or drink) on this day is to know how starving people feel. If you to fight hunger and starvation. we know how much it hurts to be starving, each of us will do our part to see that hungry people are fed. And if each of us does our part - This is our world - and Yorn Kippur is the time to start looking at donating food or money, for example-then we begin to create a world our world, seeing what is right and wrong with it, and starting to do in which no one starves. our part to change it.

Some of the kids were worriec! about designer jeans, jewelry, or hair dryers left back at the camp! Imagine! We were lucky enough to be safe, to have our lives, but they were upset about things that might nave been lost."

It was the perfect symbol this past July, when 700 campers and their counselors had to leave Camp Ramah in Ojai, (pronounced "Oh-high") California.

The beautiful wooded mountains around the camp had been burning for a few days, but because the fires were so far away, fire­ fighters thought the camp was safe. Just before bedtime on July 1, 1985, the camp director announced to the campers that they had nothing to fear. But at 3:00 a.m., campers were awakened by the fire alarm. The wind had suddenly become stronger, pushing the fire toward the camp.

"We ran like crazy," reported camper Carry! Sher, from Dallas, Texas. " We were told to leave eve:rything behind, just leave our As it turned out, the fire stopped just before it reached Camp tents and run to the baseball field at the far end of the camp. We Ramah!

"We couldn't believe what we saw - those beautiful mountains didn't even have twigs left. They were covered with gray ashes. In fact, it 'rained' ashes on_ the camp for weeks afterwards. But the miracle was that the camp itself wasn't touched by fire. This place was surely blessed ... " While this isn't the kind of experience most of us would want to have on our summer vacation, the campers did learn a lot from it. They learned about the kindness of strangers, about keeping their heads in an emergency, and about the value of their lives. "Everybody was wonderful to us," said camper Adam Kaufman, from Rancho Palos Verdes, California. "The Red Cross was espe­ "Now, if everyone would just make a donation to the Red Cross!" cially kind and generous. They fed us 3 meals a day for 3 days and requested Carry! Sher.
