A contribution of $25,000 by Louis Meryash, New York realtor, was announced by Samuel Levy, chairman of the Yeshiva College Building Fund of America, at a meeting of the Rabbi M. S. Margolies Testimonial Committee.
The contribution opens the fund which is being sought for the purpose of erecting a building to house the Teachers Institute of the Yeshiva which will be named the Rabbi M. S. Margolies Teachers Institute.
A testimonial dinner in honor of Rabbi Margolies, who is celebrating his seventy-fifth birthday and his fiftieth anniversary as a rabbi, will be tendered by the testimonial committee on May 1, in connection with the laying of the cornerstone of the Yeshiva College of America.
