[Q] Which school did your friends go to?
Various ones... With the grammar schools, they went to various ones.
[Q] Children of members of the Bund Party?
Well, there was one on Karmelicka Street 29 which went up to unit four or six, then on Krochmalna Street 36. Those were the two schools of the CISZO, The Central Organisation for Schools [sic. Centrale Jidysze Szuł - Organizacje] And that was it. Last year or two years ago, the daughter of the headmistress of the school on Krochmalna was here, she's in America. She has a strange surname: Oruszkies. She's probably, I don't know if she's Jewish with a name like that. She comes from the north, she's Lithuanian or her mother was or something like that. Oruszkies - or maybe she's Belorussian. Where that name's from, I don't know.
[Q] Która to była szkoła, do której chodzili koledzy?
Różnie. Nie, no do gimnazjum, to różnie chodzili...
[Q] Znaczy dzieci Bundowców?
No tam na Karmelicką 29, a potem jak tam było coś do... do czwartego czy szóstego oddziału, potem na Krochmalną 36. To były te dwie szkoły CISZO. Centralna Organizacja... Centralna Organizacja Szkolna [sic. Centralna Żydowska Organizacja Szkolna]. No i to wszystko. I tam taka... O, właśnie tutaj w zeszłym roku, czy dwa lata temu, była córka kierowniczki tej szkoły z Krochmalnej, która jest w Ameryce. Nazywa się dziwnym nazwiskiem Oruszkies, na pewno jest... nie wiem, czy ona jest Żydówką z takim nazwiskiem. Pewno za to... Ona gdzieś z północy pochodzi, jest Litwinką – matka była albo coś takiego. Oruszkies, albo Białorusinką. Skąd, jakie to nazwisko – nie wiem.
