Mrs. Tom Turner, a veteran of many servicemen’s Seders, will again be in charge. She will be assisted by Mr. Stanley Yukon.
Supplies for the Seder will be furnished from the funds of the Armed Services Committee while the National Jewish Welfare Board will ship such Passover supplies as fish, matzohs, wine and hagadahs.
