Stronger Catholic — Jewish Ties NEW YORK (JTA) - A letter from the Vatican Secretariat of State to Rabbi Marc H. Tanen- baum, national interreligious affairs director of the American Jewish Committee, has ex pressed satisfaction about “the growing relation between the Roman Catholic Church and the Jewish religion in the wake of the Second Vatican Council and its Declaration Nostra Aetate on the relation of the church with non-Christian religions.” The letter was signed by G. Caprio, the personal secretary of Pope John Paul II. According to the letter, written bn behalf of the Pope, in response to a letter from Rabbi Tanenbaum to the Pope on the occasion of his elec tion, the relation between the Roman Catholic Church and the Jewish people” will certain ly grow even more strongly and decisively in the future, with the good will of the parties concern ed.” Two Charlotte Christian Chiirches Hosted Passover Seders St. Patrick’s Cathedral and St. Martin’s Episcopal Church marked Holy Thursday with seders in a Christian context. about Reba? She came to Israel twenty years ago from Poland with her husband and three fine sons. Illness took her husband from her. Wars took her sons. Now she lives alone with her memories. The world is hardly aware that she is in it. There are many Rebas. In Israel. Here. The world over. It is possible'to forget them. But to forget Reba, you must forget who you are. You must ignore a heritage of nearly six thousand years of shared joy and suffering —the oneness of all Jews everywhere. Reba is you—and her needs are your needs, with a different emphasis. Renew yourself as you renew her life —and Jewish life everywhere. Make you pledge today to the 1979 campaign. Who cares about Reba? We do. You do.

Simon & Schuster. $12.96 A third-rate' intellectual the public thinks is first-rate is on his way to becoming “the coun try’s first Jewish secretary of state.” He’s the ambitious, put- upon Dr. Bruce Gold, the schlemiel-antihero of Heller’s newest novel. Many “Catch-22” fans found “Something Happened” im possible to get through, but they’ll delight in Heller’s joyful return to the zany mode for this third novel. There’s a surprise: Though “(jrood as Gold” at first trains its comic cannons at American government, it turns into a cor rosive satire on Jewish life in America. (And it is not based on a real person; Bruce Gold is not Henry Kissinger.) -HENRY KISOR Chicago Sun-Hmes BRUCE ELLIOT SCHOENES PHOTOGRAPHY By Appointment 535-4161 Member of- ASSOCIATED PHOTOGRAPHERS INTERNATIONAL Deli Town Cotswold Shopping Center **The meeting place for the Jet^ish Community** Coming Soon ...
