Jews Relate Feasts To National Morals
NEW YORK (AP)—For the world's Jews, this is a time of "judgment and reckoning," and the attention of a million of them in the United States is being focused during their high holy days on the misdeeds and message of Watergate.
"The whole nation needs this message," says Rabbi Robert I. Kahn of Houston, president of the Central Conference of American Rabbis.
"Every break-in, every bugging, every
every bribe, every illegal contribution,
every grubbing."
Weather Package Thought to Be KU's Falls in Costa Rica
An unidentified falling object landed in Costa Rica Sunday and the Associated Press said the University of Kansas was responsible.
The AP reported Monday that an instrument package from a weather balloon launched in Rio de Janeiro, about 50 miles northeast of San Jose. The object was described as a ball about a yard in diameter containing instruments to measure air pressure, wind and other meteorological factors.
The only problem is that KU hasn't learned that kind of weather balloon for some time.
"We haven't sent one up for three or four years," Joe Engleman, associate professor of geography, said Wednesday. "I don't think it belongs to us."
Eagleman said the object as described in the AP account was similar to instrument packages KU had used in the past, and that he would have given the University's address on them.
He said that the instrument packages were usually returned through the mail and that he would be waiting to see what, if anything, came in.

The 10-day observance, which began Wednesday evening with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and continues through Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement on Oct. 5, is a period of self-examination, redirection to righteousness.
To put the meaning in specific terms, the reform wing of Judaism, the Union of American Hebrew Congregations and its clergy arm, the Central Conference, has distributed a booklet asking members to wear their own clothes in the light of Watergate.
Sermons, adult classes and home-study sessions are being devoted to the subject.
"Every institution in America must reexamine itself and its failures in the harsh light of Watergate," the booklet declares, adding that this is particularly the duty of religious institution as teachers of moral standards.
"Nothing on the current religious and interreligious agenda is more urgent than to look fearlessly beneath the cesspool of Watergate at the gods we Americans worship . . . the moral ambiguities we have tolerated, the cynicism . . . and corruptions we have permitted to spread like an evil stain throughout our society."
