With one hundred pupils already enrolled, the College for Jewish Teachers will start its academic life with special services and ceremonies tonight, at the Community House of Temple Emanu-El, Fifth Avenue and 65th Street. The main speaker of the evening will be Rabbi William Schwartz, of Temple Israel of Lawrence, chairman of the College committee; Rabbi William F. Rosenblum, of Temple Israel of the City of New York, chairman of the Teachers’ Conference Committee, from which organization first came the demand for the formation of the college; and Rabbi Jacob B. Pollak, director of the College. Class sessions will begin directly after the opening ceremonies.
