Yom Kippur By DAN LOOKER Senior Staff Writer Yom Kippur, the Sabbath of Sabbaths, the Day of Atonement, or simply The Day, the most important single day in the J e w i s h Calendar begins Friday night. The most important re ligious holiday in Judaism, Yom Kippur is a day of fasting and personal con fession with God. Rabbi Sanford Ragins of the South Street Temple explained. The Day of Atonement is the culmination of the Jew ish High Holiday Season or the Ten Days of Repen tance which begin on Oct. 4 with Rosh Hashana. the Jewish New Year. Yom Kippur "deals di rectly with the individual and God." Rabbi Raeins said. The observer of Yom Kippur fasts for 25 hours and confesses his sins to God, the Rabbi explained. The observance is the only generally practiced fast day in Judaism, he continued. "Bv fasting we assert our elf-control over our appetites and desires in the hone that ;n the year zhead we will be able to control the impulse to do evil." Rabbi Ragins pointed out. Tom Kippur is the most serious Jewish holidy. he added. "If the Jewish peo ple don't come to the syna- gogue any oiner lime, mis is the time they come." Very little is done in the home; it is entirely a syna gogue observance, he said. Yom Kippur does not have the folk rituals and familv am AT PlVlDlIrJID AT LOWEST 16th & P Sfs.

Jews can attend a special me morial service "for ali the generations gone before," Rabbi Ragin noted. The main emphasis, he, said, is on the departed relatives of the Yom Kip pur observers. The tradi tion has been part of the holiday for a long time, although "originally, back in biblical times it wasn't." Many Jewish students are going home for the weekend, according to a coed in Sigma Delta T a u sorority. "Nothing will be done in the house, since Yom Kippur is strictly a synagogue holiday," she said. There are usually no spe cial activities in the home, either, she explained, al though "there is usually a tremendous meal almost a feast at the end of the fast Saturday night."
