A memorial window in memory of the late Leo Feist, song publisher, has been contributed by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, which includes practically all of the outstanding song writers and musicians of America. Gene Buck is president of the Society and John Philip Sousa is vice-president.
The memorial window will be placed in Sinai Temple of Mt. Vernon, of which Mr. Feist was for many years a member, and will be dedicated on Friday evening, November 14. Mr. Buck will deliver an address and a delegation of notable personages will represent the Society on this occasion. A delegation of the Wendell Phillips Lodge, Knights of Pythias, will also attend.
Rabbi Solomon A. Fineberg, rabbi of the Temple, and Mr. Benjamin Slote, its president, will participate in the ceremonies.
