Led by Frank Ruben, cantor, and followed by a sermon by David Polish, services were conducted here this morning by delegates to the 25th annual convention of Young Judaea, which is taking place in this city.

In his sermon the speaker decried faulty aims often found in Jewish youth movements and stressed the need for a definite goal and program.

The convention opened informally yesterday afternoon, with Mrs. Rachel Vixman, executive director of Young Judaea, presiding.

In the evening the Oneg Shabath dinner was held, with all delegates attending and participating in an informal talk.

Delegates included Frank Ruben, president of the New England region of the Young Judaea organization; David Levine, national vice president; and David Polish, president of the tri-state region.

Rabbi Nathan N. Rosen, of Brooklyn, N. Y., led the delegates in a songfest later in the evening.
