Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements

Oct. 13,2009

To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests:

1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance.
2. Send material as plain text:  no HTML, other coding, or attachments;
and be sure to write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has
posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames.

Subject:  Organized club and intermural sports in Central and Eastern 
Europe

I am working on a paper about Jews in Central and Eastern Europe and their 
participation in organized club sports as well as intramural sports. I 
want to interview those who participated in any of the following or those 
who are the children (grandchildren) of the participants who remember 
stories. I am also interested in getting (copies) of any photos and 
memorabilia like sport/game programs, ticket stubs, letters, awards, etc. 
The following specific events I am interested in.

The 1931 International Workers Olympics in Vienna.

The First Maccabiah Summer Games in Tel Aviv, Palestine in 1932.

The First Maccabiah Winter Games in Zakopane, Poland 1933.

The Second Maccabiah Summer Games in Tel Aviv, Palestine in 1935

The Second Maccabiah Winter Games in Banska Bystrica, Czechoslovakia 1936

General sports in Eastern Europe.
