Newsletter of the Worldwide Congregation Charlap/Yahya 1 NEWSLETTER OF THE WORLDWIDE CONGREGATION CHARLAP/YAHYA Vol. 18, No. 1 Av 5767; July 2007 ISRAEL BASEBALL LEAGUE On June 24 the Israel Baseball League held its inaugural game at the Y arkon Sports Complex in Petach Tikvah. Plans call for a 45 game schedule, a mid-season all-star game, and a season-ending championship game. The first professional baseball league in Israel has attracted the attention of such famed Jewish personalities as: Sandy Koufax - Hall of Fame pitcher with the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers; drafted by Modi'in Miracle. Art Shamsky - star of the New York Mets, the "miracle" team that won the World Series in 1969. Art manages the Modi'in Miracle. Ken Holtzman - great pitcher with Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics. He pitched 2 no-hit games and manages the Petach Tikvah Pioneers. Ron Blomberg - star with the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox; now manages the Bet Shemesh Blue Sox. Daniel Kurtzer - former U.S. Ambassador to Israel; now Commissioner of IBL. · Dan Duquette - General Manager of Montreal Expos and Boston Red Sox; now IBL Director of Baseball Operations. Bud Selig - former Major League Baseball Commissioner; Advisory Committee IBL. Randy Levine - President, New York Yankees; Advisory Committee IBL. Marshall Glickman - former President, NBA Portland Trail Blazers; Advisory Committee IBL. ·Perhaps, more importantly for readers of B'rayshit, Ken Holtzman has selected-our own George Chityat (12576,Pl.192) to be on the pitching staff of the Petach Tikvah Pioneers. George, son of Ezra (12573) and Trudy Donchin (12571) Chityat, was born in 1973 in New York Raised mainly in New Jersey, he made aliyah in 1997. In 2004 he married Adi Kisos (18586), who was born in Eilat in 1981. They live in Ramat Gan. George is a right handed pitcher but is a switch hitter. He is 6 feet tall and weighs 190 pounds. To this date, the Pioneers have not done that well. Petach Tikvah is in last place with a record of 3 wins and 14 losses. Oh well, it took Sandy Koufax a while before he found his great form. George's mom, Trudy, is descended directly from the Don Y ahya line. Donchin is a Russified version of the name. Trudy's great-great-great grandfather was Rabbi David ben Baruch Don Yechiya (9800,Pl.172), a Talmudic scholar ofDisna, White Russia. Her grandfather Bernard (Baruch Chaim) (12473) was born in Ludza, Latvia. In 1903 he settled in Lund, Sweden. After eight years, he left for America, becoming a jeweler in Jersey City, New Jersey. Bernard had five children, four of them born in Pikeli, Lithuania. The youngest of the children was Trudy's father, Herman (12516), born in Sweden. Herman was a tough young man who became a police officer and professional boxer. His athletic prowess was apparently inherited by his grandson George, possibly the Sandy Koufax of the IBL. 2 NEXT TIME AROUND WANDERER Desiree Gezentsvey's (1690,Pl.115) bilingual poetry I am the wanderer book Next Tzme Around/La Proxima Vez made its debut on the tom traveler March 7 together with the premiere of the song cycle "An Ocean Between Us" by New Zealand composer Dorothy the one destined for freedom Buchanan.

Ms. Buchanan summed it up in saying, "Desiree's lay my path in two horizons poetry inspires the musician in me. It has a special cadence and musicality, and the content spans all life's experiences, breathe your words & weave your message like longing, family, sensuality, joy and sorrow, which swear that nothing else compares resonate within us all."

  • January 26, 2015 Csnchicago.Com Mr. Cub: Ernie Banks Did It His Way
    January 26, 2015 CSNChicago.com Mr. Cub: Ernie Banks did it his way By Patrick Mooney A man walked down Addison Street late Saturday morning with a bouquet of flowers, placing it at the makeshift shrine outside Wrigley Field. A white No. 14 jersey hung from the railing. A Cubs hat, a Cubs helmet, at least one opened Budweiser can and a homemade poster lined the sidewalk. People held up their iPhones to take pictures of the memorial and the name in lights on the marquee: Ernie Banks did it his way. That usually implies a bully with a big ego, a loner making enemies while getting ahead. But for Mr. Cub, this always meant killing them with kindness. That begins to explain the outpouring of emotions in Chicago and all across the country. The team’s official press release on Friday night did not identify a cause of death for Banks, who would have celebrated his 84th birthday on Jan. 31. “He (meant) so much to Chicago fans,” Hall of Famer Billy Williams said. “He was always that positive guy. And when I got the news, it’s just like somebody shot bullets through my heart.” Banks was closing in on his second straight National League MVP Award when Williams made his big-league debut in 1959. The All-Star shortstop put up 92 homers and 272 RBI during that unbelievable two-year period. Banks always seemed to enjoy the moment, never bothered by the attention or burdened by the fame. He loved talking to behind-the-scenes employees at Wrigley Field, and interacting with fans young and old, and bantering with the media.
