A significant swing back to old traditions of Jewry that may set a precedent in Jewish reform congregations throughout the country was announced here today by the Euclid Avenue Temple. Starting Oct. 31, weekly services at the Temple will be held Friday evening instead of Sunday morning as has been the custom for many years. it was announced by Rabbi Barnatt R. Brickner, who said that his Congregation believed Friday night services have a greater appeal for the Jewish people.
