Chabad Reps. in Cambridge

To the editors:

On behalf of the educational arm of the worldwide Chabad-Lubavitch movement, I wish to clarify that the movement's sole representatives to the city of Cambridge, Mass., including the campuses of Harvard and MIT, are Rabbi Hirsch and Mrs. Elkie Zarchi. They are the only ones authorized to act on behalf of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement in the city.

We are gratified that in the five months since the Zarchis began their activities in Cambridge, their efforts have been met with the enthusiasm of students and faculty alike. We trust that the unauthorized use of the Chabad-Lubavitch name will not obscure the positive contributions of Chabad of Cambridge under the Zarchis' leadership.
