A prize of $1,000 for the best full-length play for children in English on a Jewish theme was announced here today by the Jewish Theatre for Children. The contest, the third annual event, is designed to stimulate a dramatic literature in English for elementary and junior highs school children to give expression to Jewish ethical and spiritual values. The theatre, a professionally-operated group, is supported by grants from the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of New York and the Jewish Education Committee of this city.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
