Five Jewish actors were admitted this week to membership in the Hebrew Actors’ Union after passing a special examination witnessed by 150 members of the Union.
The five admitted are Menachem Rubin, Mania Schlossberg, Max Kletter, Jacob Bergrin and Michael Rosenberg.
All five have been playing on the Yiddish stage for several years. Five more applicants will be examined by the union next Friday for admittance into membership.
