"Fifteen young people in the Bradford area have made a Hebrew word famous in Simcoe County.They are a singing group called Tushiyah. When the group formed four years ago, one of their members, Allan Faris, sat in the English classroom at Bradford High School with a huge Hebrew dictionary on his knee. He kept calling out words. The members decided Tushiyah suited their aims. It means the ability to help, especially by directing. Now they are a professional group of singers and musicians who have performed for large audiences in many places throughout Southern Ontario. Four years ago, they were just members of the Inter-School Fellowship group at Bradford High who had learned songs for a variety night at school."
