Starting Thursday Beginning Thursday evening at sundown the B’nai Zion Congre- gation of Key West will start to celebrate the festival of Shvuos, the Hebrew Pentecost or Feast of Weeks. According to Rabbi Schwartz, pastor of the Congregation, this holiday represents the accept- ance of the tablets of the ten commandments by Israel from their prophet, Moses. The holiday is called Shvuos or Pentecost be- cause it comes at the end of seven weeks or fifty days—the fifty days having begun with the} offering of the barley sheaf on} Passover and ending with the) ingathering of the last grain, the wheat on Shvuos. | The Holiday will be celebrated through May 30th and 3lst, two full days, and services will be| held Thursday evening, 8:00 Painter Killed TAMPA (P—A housepainter was shot to death and a woman with whom he was eating supper in a restaurant was critically wounded here Sunday.

In the narrow mixture of gains and losses, few changes ranged to as much as a_ dollara share. Chemical issues acted a bit better than most; many of the rails were depressed slightly. Trading proceeded at an un- usually slow pace. This was at- tributed to the reluctance of many traders to make any commitment in advance of the United’ States Supreme Court’s decision on legal- ity of government seizure of the steel industry.
