Show LOUIS ZUCKER #2 him, because he had an accent. I did not mind the accent, but these people minded the accent, curiously. Of course, r think r told you B' nai B' ri th had a Hanukkah program. They invited both rabbis to speak to the occasion. HR: Who was the counterpart? LZ: Cardon. HR: Cardon, okay. LZ: So Cardon gave a speech which was very flowery, very platitudinous, very trite. You know, "The nation will totter to its fall." You know, trite and pompous, but the English was good. I mean to say, the words were and his grammar was correct. "Kricky's" grammar was faultless. "Kricky's" vocabulary was very good and his accent. Then "Kricky" gets up to speak, and that was a long speech. The other one was. I am not belittling Rabbi Cardon. He was a man of part. He had been here only two years. When I came here he had been here only two years, and everybody of importance in Salt Lake City knew Rabbi Cardon and was respectful to him. We were invited, my wife and I, to Rabbi Cardon's Rosh Hashahah reception at his home. The "great" of the city came. This was a young man. He was only thirty at the time. He had been here only two years. He was not a man to belittle, but that was his style of speaking, nonetheless. I never liked it. It always bothered me. 82 |
