Israelis speculated that the Egyptians had created the incident to prove to the United Nations General Assembly on the eve of the vote on measures to deal with the Middle East situation, that the borders were not quiet as Israel claimed, and that it was therefore necessary to have the Israeli forces pulled back to prevent further incidents. The Egyptians were also expected to use the incident to bolster their argument that the old 1956 border was the "natural" demarcation line. The chief purposes of the incident, however, it was believed here, -were'domestic. President Nasser was said to be trying to prove to the Egyptian people that his regime, winch is coming under mounting criticism at home, is doing its utmost to "liberate" the territories occupied by the Israelis. The incident Was also designed to show, as "Revolution Day" nears, that the Egyptian Army, was not destroyed but continues as a fighting force.

Washington (JTA)—The Johnson Administration twice last week warned Israel against annexation.of Old Jerusalem without full consultation with Christian and Moslem religious leaders and others. In a special statement, Issued shortly before King Hussein of Jordan was Welcomed to the White House, President Johnson urged such consultation because of Jerusalem's special religious significance to Christians and Moslems and Jews. The timing of the statement was believed aimed at reassuring King Hussein that the United States did not accept full Israeli sovereignty over parts of Jerusalem and its environs held by Jordan b e f o r e it was knocked out of the third Arab-Israel war on June 6, While the King and the President were meeting, State Department press spokesman Robert McCloskey called the Israeli ''annexation" of Old Jerusalem unacceptable and criticized "hasty administrative action" by Israel. Later the State Department disclosed that Israel had been informed directly about United States opposition.

Jerusalem (JTA)—Thousands of Jews poured into Old Jerusalem this week for the first time in 19 years while an equal number of Old City Arab residents crossed into the new city for the first time after Israeli workmen completed the task of eliminating most physical barriers between the two sections. Under Government edict, all parts of the reunited city were made accessible to all residents, At the same time, the Israeli army relinquished control of the Old City section to civilian police as Israel's laws and ordinances in the new city were widened to cover the entire municipal .territory. Interior Minister Moshe Shapiro transmitted to Mayor Theodore Kollek a new Government order, based on the law approved by Parliament, which formally established the reunited Jerusalem. He also transmitted to the Mayor the new law providing protection for the holy sites, stressing their importance for all three major religions.

Omaha Jewry Responding to Phone-a-Thon Mrs. Morris C. Fellman, chairman of the Women's Division of the Israel Emergeny Fund Campaign, reports that the response to the Phone-a-Thon staged last week by volunteers in the Women's Division has been "most encouraging." "Some 70 women were mobilized to reach every Omaha Jewish family by telephone and encourage their support of the Israel Emergency campaign," said Mrs. Fellman. "At this point there is no tabulation of the dollar results of the phone calls, however, many who were called indicated their intentions of sending in their contributions within the next week." Mrs. Fellman urged all women working on the Phone-a-T'lion to complete their calls as quickly as possible and to return their cards to the Jewish Community Center, "I am sure that when the final figures are in the Phone-aThon will prove to have been a successful campaign aid," said Mrs. Fellman. "I am most grateful to the women of the community for their tremendous contribution in vol unt.ee ring their time and efforts in behalf of tlie emergency drive."

LONDON OTA) - Travelers returning from the Soviet Union say Russian Jews fear for their safety because of an almo^pWe of anti-Israel hysteria fostered by the official propoganda organs of the Government, the Guardian, a leading British daily newspapers, reported this week. A Soviet press campaign about alleged Israeli atrocities during the war and in the occupation of Arab territory, which subsided for a few days, has been resumed in full force, according to the travelers. Radio propoganda is liberally sprinkled with comments about the wartime "crimes of the Hitler Fascists" jn reference to Israel. In some parts of Ihe Soviet Union, Jews were reported fearful about venturing into the streets.

THE JKWISH PRESS

Uy I.KO . Kditor, Aiiii'i'ic;iii Kxaminer One of the biggest stories to come out of the Middle East sines the Israelis so dramatically and decisively beat the Arab aggressors to the draw on June 5 has gone practically unnoticed in the American press. Datelined El Arish, Israeli-occupied Kgypt. June 23, the story told how the Israelis found "two trainloads of chemicals destined lor poison gas manulacture by the Egyptian armed forces." The report we refer to appeared in the RECORD iBergen County, N. J.I on June 24. Only casual references to it were carried by the New York Tunes and other newspapers and even the JtECORI) did not think it merited frontpage position. Yet the story threw the spotlight on evidence of a nefarious scheme by Nasser to commit genocide upon the Jews of Israel in the spirit and style of the late madman Hitler, Provided of course that Nasser had won the war lie hatched so cunningly but lost so ignominiously. But the story must be told because the mad dictator of the Nile is at this very moment preparing for another try with the help of the furious Kremlin boys. The two trainloads of chemicals found by the Israelis were put on display at El Arish for the benefit of newsnien. Reports the RECORD correspondent: "Some of the chemicals found at 51 Arish were in blue barrels bearing inscriptions indicating that they had mine from Communist China, and there were two Soviet-built container t r u c k s . . . " ' Also found at El Arish was a laboratory equipped for research in atomic, bacteriological and chemical warfare. One room in the laboratory, according to the RECORD report, was marked with a sign warning: "Danger- poisoned food." The room contained various kinds of foodstuffs and chemicals. One'reporter, Zeev Schule, entered a railroad car that v/as loaded with

Dr. Alan F. Guttmaeher, president of The Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc., charactrizes Jewish law in areas pertaining to birtli control and abortion as elastic and liberal since it "never equates the life of the unborn child with that of the mother." Writing in the current issue (Spring J9G7) of the quarterly Judaism, sponsored by the American Jewish Congreus, Dr. Guttmachcr traces and summarizes the sources in Jewish law of the four most prevalent methods of conception control: celibacy, abortion, contraception and sterilization. He reports: ."The specific problem of therapeutic abortion to .preserve the life of the mother did not become a subject of Jewish discussion until the seventeenth century . . . The consensus is clear: Judaism

sanctions, even demands, that therapeutic abortion be done in cases in which pregnancy presents a hazard to the mother's life, furthermore, psychic disorders associated with pregnancy which might lead to risk of life would be considered in the same way as physical threat to the mother's Hie,." Dr. Guttmaeher notes that while the Talmud unequivocally condemns male contraception, women are "not under equal obligation as the male to be faithful and multiply." .'Nursing mothers and pregnant women, for example, were permitted, in some situations to use contraceptive devices. Eventually, these categories were broadened by rabbinical authorities not only to permit hut to require contraceptives by the female if pregnancy or delivery would result in the mother's death.

the chemical barrels. He said he detected an acrid smell—which later produced a bout of nausea. All this is extremely interesting in light of the fact that the Nasser forces in Yemen have been accused of using poison gas against dissident tribesmen supporting the deposed monarchy. Lest anyone think that the chemicals at El Arish were intended. as suggested in some dispatches, for decontamination purposes, the RECORD correspondent goes on to say: •'Israeli officials who showed the Soviet container trucks to newsmen said they were evidently designed for use with gas. Each truck had two chemical containers linked by pipes to two airtight chambers about the height of a man." The Israel officials also said Iliat one ol the buildings at the laboratory include what apparently was a gas chain-

Now these disclosures are of great importance on more than one score. They reveal, in addition I'd Nasser's intention, that l> both Red China and .Soviet Russia v/ere helping to equip Nasser for genocide against the Jews, and 2) they unnui.sk Moscow's true and ugly face. On the one hand. Mr. Kos'igyn has the chutzpah to come to New York and inveigh in tones of moral indignation at the United Nations against the Israeli "aggressors" and on the other hand, he and his fellow rulers of the Kremlin-all of them ardent pupils of the laU- Stalin—ore feeding Nasser not only customary military hardware but also facilities for extermination of the people of Israel through genocide. For what else would fascist Nasser and his comrades be doing with mobile gas chambers? To ask the question i* to answer it. And yet the world stands complacently by while the forces of evil are readying for a continuation of the Hitlerian bestiality. Can it be that the world refuses to believe that so black a chapter of history as Nazism can be repeated again? Or is it that the world has become so hardened and calloused afterwitnessing the systemic extermination of six million Jews (and a like number of non-Jews, by the way) that the prospect of the Nasser-projected killing of a mere two million more Jews in Israel seems but a trifle unworthy of getting upset about? The same newspapers which avidly played up every phony rumor since June 5 of Israeli brutality practiced upon the Arab v/ar prisoners blithely ignore or bury inconspicuously the item about Nasser's genocidal plot aided and abetted by both Red China and Soviet Russia. Whoever found It difficult to believe iu Soviet perfidy before need have no further doubts after the exposure at Kl Arish. Now we know the bitter truth and it cannot be colored or whitewashed away. Nasser, Mao Tsetung and Kosigyn stand pilloried before the bar of human conscience—or what is left of it. We repeat our warning: if Washington compromises with Moscow at the expense of Israel in the present critical Midea3t situation, it will be the greatest betrayal in modern history—and in the end it will lead to a holocaust ol universal scope from which none of us will escape.

PRKKS

And this week I am a hawk. Every Israeli shot seems to be a shut in the arm for me. My self-consciousness is draining away, I am absolutely glad to be a Jew. I have eyes, handi, organs, I am like everybody else—at the very least. Who calls me 11 Kike? Every Arab mile Israeli tanks puss through buoys me. I think of going to a temple to pray, but that seems to be going too far. Prayers In the tiny shul in the brownstone across the street from my apartment house I can see the orthodox Jews chanting and swaying in thanksgiving, In other years I have despised these foreign-looking people with their strange gyrations and loud singsong voices. They were not my kind of people. Today they will pruy for me. On the street outside my office window a loud speaker exhorts gentlemen to step into a parked truck and "pray for your brothers and sisters in Israel. It is not necessary to know how to pray. We will help you." But the prayers arc foreign to me also. I worry I won't kjiow howto say Kaddish when it becomes .,

There are many things to say, but my heart and mind are too full now. I just wanted to let you know, that now, more than ever, we are proud to be Israelis. We are proud to bo Jews and we are happy to know that you can be prouil too. We know thnt the Jewish solidarity is not a fiction

and not an abstract noun —it i« a fact that was written in blood and tears. Editor's note: The following excerpts are from a letter written to Mrs. Barton Greenberg on June 27 by her cousin Hannah Samuel in living in Tel Aviv. « * • Thank heaven, we passed the hard times.

pings, are strange, like a distant relative's musty lace in an attic box. I cannot help my brothers and sisters by praying. I may never be strong enough to nail a Mezuzah to the doorpost of my house, but somehow, through the sandy clouds raised by tank columns on the Sinai, I have rediscovered part of my past. I have wiped out part of my fear of Judaism. Perhaps it is a temporary mirage on my religious desert. Perhaps I've been estranged too long to make a comeback. Perhaps this is all a piece of manufactured theatrics generated by the drama of the mass media, a passing fancy, a cheap catharsis for 30 years of guilt. And if I have actually found part of my heritage, what if it is not enough to pass onto my sons. I rummage through my library, looking for what—what it is called? I keep saying Haganali. No. Haggadah! Here—I turn the pages as if it is a longlost-family album, a link to another time. I am searching for a page, familiar words at the end. Restore Thy numberless congregation: Speedily l e a d the sliools of the garden Thou has planted, redeemed, joyful, to Zlon. Next year In Jerusalem. ,At last it makes sense. But will it still make sense next year in New York?

There is no question the most interesting immigrant to our shores this spring was Svetlana Alliluyeva, Josef Stalin's daughter. Svetlana is comely, articulate, intelligent and by the time her memoirs are published she will also be rich and more than probably stylish. What interests me particularly is that Americans proved so generous and warm in welcoming her. There is no reason why we shouldn't be gentlemanly to a lady sorely pressed, but we are so avowedly anti-Marxist, the spontaneity of our reception surprised me. I can only conclude we are ill-informed with very little idea of what a Marxist is, There is no question Svetlana is a.Marxist in the same way, nay, a parish priest is a Catholic. I speak here of Marxism in its narrow and'historical'perspective. Marxism Marxism is a religion and I do not mean to include in H* !»Iherents the hardcore Communist nationalists who want to bury us nor the' n a t i v e-bom fellow travelers of the !930's, 40's and 50's, Karl Marx was a fervent man. He believed if the proletariat changed the existing forms of government and abolished profit, good men were waiting in the cupboards. The paucity of good men in the cupboards, however, has .starved more than one system. When the reporters asked Svetlana what she thought of her father's black deeds, the sins of which history accuses him, she replied the system itself, the ideology, was partly to blame. It is, of course, true that the communists who took over RusBia iii 1917 never framed a system, of checks and balances to control absolute power; by the same reasoning the ideology didn't turn Stalin into a paranoiac madman which he became. Me was a suspicious man whose suspicions hardened into psychotic attitudes which drove him to inflict terror and death on Russians mighty and lowly. Questions ' ' It is a difficult exercise to question si child about ft father,

particularly a criminal father! But once done, the a n s w e r , "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely," or "My father was a sick man," both of which are pale answers, still lend themselves to our moral concepts of right and wrong. Again when Svetlana replied to the (jiiery whether she would nccept herself as a capitalist, she said that a writer was different; anything he or she created was deserved since creating came from the sweat of his or her own brow, not the labor o{ others. While I could detail the systematic thinking of Svetlana Alliluyeva to prove my point, I do not think it is necessary. That she is a Marxist nnd sees the world against that tableau is what made the reporters and her hosts and her editors call her charming. And she probably is. Anyway, I have no bone to pick with her. Just with the naievta of Americans. I think our political and philosophic systems are no moresvisionary than a True Confessions story. We celebrated the Eisenhower administration because Ike and Mamie were the grandparents everyone wanted and the Kennedy administration gave us the first sexually viable President and First Lady to occupy the White House in, this century. Svetlana will be metainorphosized into our idea of what the all-American girl would do if she had the arch-murderer of the century for a father.

Capitol Spotlight By Mickey GereficH 1 Historians are facing the responsibility of separating fact from fiction and recording, with accuracy, the events ol the past month. Sociologists are charged with the task of determining the fur reaching effects on the entire world of the 6-day war in the middle east. Theologians and Jewish social scientists must evaluate the effects in terms of the world Jewish community. Perhaps whm their work Is through my questions will be answered—but perhaps by then It will be too Inte. From where I sit, with my untrained eyes and ears, I see some shocking implications in the events of the past month. I pray that the professionals will be able to disprove most of my observations and confirm just a few. Pride in War It takes no further confirmation to the observation that the little State of Israel won a miraculous military victory from enemies who outnumbered her by millions. Jews throughout (he world have shared a sense of pride in that victory—and even this is cause for further study and evaluation. How odd it i* for Jewii to take such pride In a military victory! Recently I heard Rabbi Sidney Brooks point out that "we haven't had loo many military victories find historically Jews have always been disturbed by the killing which is the necessary result of a military victory." Rabbi Brooks went on to say that "as joyful as we all are with the turn of evenls in Israel, every real Jew is embarrassed by military victory because war 13 basically obscene and contrary to every Jewish belief about the sanctity of life." Philosophically there can be no argument with Rabbi Brook's observations, yet realistically I see no signs of embarrassment in the pride the American Jewish community has taken in Israel's performance on the battlefield. This Certainly has much to say about the changing character of. Jewry. L wish that I were wise enough to interpret it. Christian iteuciiuu Even more shocking I believe has been the reaction (or more correctly, the lack of reaction) by the organized Christian Church. Elsewhere in this paper is a report of comments made by Rabbi Balfour Brickner, director of the Commission on Interfaith Activities of American Reform Judaism contending that the "Christian e s t a b l i s h ment was silent on support for the integrity of the State of Israel" Rabbi IJrlckner conceded (lint certain Individual Christian

laymen and clergymen did Kprak out and even offered financial support, "but tliry wore the exception and not the rule." He said that the "organized church seemed unable to UiUc a strong stand on what it considered to be a political Issue," adding that "Ihe survival of (lie Jewish people is not a political Issue." An Old Lesson Last week, in editorial comments referring to Rabbi Brickner's statements, J. I. Fishbcin, editor of the Chicago Jewish Sentinal wrote: "The fcad truth is Hint when the chips were down, (he Christian world did exactly what it did during Hitler's time. It turned (lie other cheek mid wsi'.ed for (!J* a* to full. Hud It not been for Israel's defendem, vie would have had another holocaust and (hat would have been (hat The Church worried about the holy places in Jerusalem—not (he Vh million people facing possible extermination. We point Mils out not in anger, but simply to rt-Ieorn an age-old lesson. As far as (he world is concerned, J«w» are expendable and Jewish blood Is cheap." A sad commentary on the «cumenicu! efforts that hwve been made in recent years. Again. I pray the professionals will be able to prove this observation wrong, but nt the moment it seems to be frighteningly accurate. Bright Spot Perhaps the only bright spot has been the reaction of world Jewry. Even if the motivation was one foreign to Judaismpride in a miltiary victory—the fact is, that Jews did react and they did respond. Doubts about the solidarity of the world Jewish community seem to have been refuted. From all parls of the world the voices of Jews have been heard in defense of Israel's right to survive. The commitment of world Jewry has been expressed in the outpouring of dollars—not for Israel to wage war—but for Israel to survivie the devastating effects of a crushed economy which has been the result of war. If it will be proven true ns Mr. Fishbcin says that when the chips were down, the Christian world was again silent in the face of the possible extermination of Vh million people, perhaps it will also be proven tmo that when the chips were down the Jews of the world stood united and their voices were heard. As Mr. Fishbein points out—so far it is the only voice we can depend on. I pray it will remain strong and loud throughout the political battle in the days ahead. But only the historians will know for sure!

Ry nABBI SAMUEL J. FOX QUESTION: Why Is "Lag B'Omer1' (ocruring (lib jear on Mny 28lh) a joyous festival? ANSWER: A variety of reasons nre advanced for making this day such a happy one. Some claim that this is a glad day because it was on this dote (the eighteenth day of the Hebrew month of Iyorj that the Mannah first oegan appearing as the food to sustain the people of Israel in their wanderings through the wilderness after the exodus from Egypt (Chasam Sofer and others), Many claim that the day of Lag B'Omer indicates the end of the death of Rabbi Akiba's twenty four thousand disciples who died during the period between Passover and Shayttot. The Kabbalists observe this day ns a happy' day because it was the day on which the saintly Rabbi Simon bnr Yochni passed away. First, his passing away as a result of natural causes was a sort of victory over the Roman oppressors who sought to have him killed by their soldiers but; who were not able to carry out their evil intent'-Secondly^ the Kabbalists assume I that his passing was the occasion whenhe surely rose to the1 highest of the heavens. • ''inify that he found peace. .

By Milton Friedman The State Department is focusing attention on the questions of access to Jerusalem's holy places and the A r a b refugees. But nothing has been said about a brutal wave of anti-Jewish pers e c u t i o ns in Arab states, The Jewish refugees, and new evidence of J o rdanian desecration of Jewish shrines in Jeru- Friedman salem. Pogroms Turkish correspondents have reported to Ankara that the Jewish residents of Damascus, Syria, were subjected to a pogrom reminiscent of Nazi Ger-

many. Fifty-seven Jews, including women and children, were murdered in the streets and in their homes. Two hundred Jews were thrown in jail. Damascus policemen were joined by mobs in baiting and beating Jews after Hie United Nations censefire. Anti-Jewi&h violence in Tripoli, Libya, resulted in several deaths.

By CARL ALPERT Haifa- Whatever may be the final and precis* boundaries of the State of Israel, they will be dictated by factors assuring the country's security, and not by political and diplomatic pressures, no matter how intense. And the drawing of such boundaries will inevitably mean that the Arab refugee problem, in the form in which it has existed for 19 years, will for the most part have disappeared. Israel is now administering large areas which contain not only the bulk of the 1948 refugees, but the permanent resident Arab population of those areas as well. More accurate statistics will no doubt be available shortly, but in the meantime it is my estimate that close to one and a half million Arabs are now living in an area subject to Israel control. There are immediate and there are longrange problems. The first consideration \yas to assure that these people were provided with an orderly and regular food supply. Simultaneously there had to be careful concern for health and sanitation in the newly-occupied areas. These matters did receive the immediate attention of the Israeli authorities. The next concern was the speedy restoration of some degree of economic normalcy. The Arab banks were reopened; the Arab farmers were afforded distribution channels for their produce; stores are again in business. But uppermost in everyone's mind is the long-range political problem. The time has come for Israel's diplomats and statesmen to exercise as much originality and daring in their approach to the new internal Arab problem as the nation's military leaders displayed so brilliantly on the field of battle. This is a time for bold and imaginative policy. New Policy Obviously there will be need for large-scale international assistance in providing the original Arab refugees with opportunity at last to leave the camps in which they had been held by their Arab hosts-since 1948. Those who wish to go abroad should now be free to do so. Those who wish to emigrate to other Arab lands should be accepted there. There is a further opinion that those who decide to remain in the larger Israel Slate must be given assistance in proper resettlement. The" must not be continued as recipients of a dole. They are entitled to the same opportunities for economic integration into the life of the country as the 300,000 Arabs who are already regarded as citizens of Israel. . Another point of view maintains that absorption of such a large number of Arabs into Israel would mean that in a very short time the Arabs would be a majority and this would no longer be a Jewish State. Instead, it may prove advisable to assist in setting up a new Arab state, carved out of portions of the: newly liberated West Bank of the Jordan. Such state would be bound to Israel by special commercial and cultural agreements. To make it viable, the new state would be given access to the Mediterranean through a Free Port at Haifa or Ashdod. ; . The conditions of such arrangements should-be such that the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan should find every reason, in its own self-interest, to join in the Federation. Lebanon rnight be next— and a whole new power constellation would begin to emerge in the Middle East. ' If this kind of relationship can be achieved it could lead to a great new era of development, growth and progress from which all the peoples of the Middle East will benefit, This can come to pass if the Israel leadership will be wise and magnanimous in victory; if sober leadership will prevail in Arab circles; and if the Soviet Union will refrain from incendiary agitation. But it is Israel which must boldly take the lead. Patience, statesmanship and international help will be required. The road will be long and rocky, but the goal.is alluring.

Anti-Jewish violence has flared in Algiers, Baghdad, and elsewhere, Jews fled from Aden for their lives. A number of Jews were mercilessly attacked nnd some killed in Aden by fanatical Arabs. Jewish refugees left by sea and air, forced to abandon their homes and possessions. Jordanian Ati'«ci(i<f The public has been fed a diet of reports on the Arab refugee plight. Considerable humanitarian compassion^ exists for hornsless Arabs in Jordan. Yet it was their own Arab government, Jordan, which started the war and bears direct responsibility, The Jews attacked in Arab countries are innocent bystanders including some persons who considered themselves loyal citizens to the extent of refusing opportunities to emigrate to Israel in the past. • When Israeli troops liberated the Jewish quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, they found all Jewish institutions desecrated and destroyed. The Torat Chaim religious school, the Istanbul synagogue, Midrash Torat Yosef synagogue, Tifereth Israel synagogue, and eleven other synagogues that functioned in 1947 had been done away with by Jordan. Many smaller places of worship and study were destroyed. The one surviving synagogue —Horvat Beit Yaacoy—was inhabited by Arab derelicts. The floor was covered with rubbish. All valuables had been stolen. The ruins of the Jewish quarter was used by Jordanian authorities as a garbage dump. When Jordanian municipal authorities approved construction of an approach road to the Pan American Intercontinental Hotel on the Mount of Olives, they knew the road traversed an ancient Jewish cemetery. They nevertheless agreed to the road. B u i Id oze r6 rammed through the Jewish graves. No attempt was made to re-inter the remains. Jewish bones were ground into the roadbed. Arab Legion soldiers used tombstones from the Mount of Olives as flooring for their tents and for fortifications. One of the tombstones so desecrated bore the name of a revered • rnbbi, " Rabbi Abulafia. Refuse was scattered over the graves of Samuel, the prophet, and the Sanhedrin. When asked why vandals were allowed to do this, the Mukhtar, Sheik of Rashad, Abu Mustafa, said "the government that ruled here until now wanted it that way." Israeli army units occupying Hebron found 15 pounds of high explosives, wired as a booby trap, over the Tomb of The Patriarchs in the Cave of Maclipelah. The charge" was defused by Israeli demolition experts. The Jewish Cemetery of Hebron had been destroyed, Crops were planted on the site. The common grave of the victims of : the 1929 anti-Jewish pogrom was obliterated. A stone wall had been built of tombstones and human bones. The Israeli Ministry of Religion ordered the immediate reburial of the bones •with appropriate rites. The Jews murdered in 1929 by the Arabs of Hebron had not even been permitted to rest peacefully in their graves. ' Irony .

YOL'TII COUNCIL-' — SOFTBALL LEAGUE AZA 1 upset league leading Chaim Weizmann 6-5 in last Sunday's game. AZA 1, led by the fine pitching of Mike Miller and some potent hitting, jumped to an early lead and never relinquished it. Chaim Weizmann made some fielding errors early in the game and had to play catchup ball throughout the 7 inning contest. They failed by one run. Larry Cackin, Bob Rifkin and Bill Ferer were the big bats for the winning AZA 1 team. Ferer turned in his usual outstanding game at his third base position. In the other contest, Rayim outslugged an Improving AZA 100 team by a score of 18-12. Harvey Josin and Bruce Muskin led the Rayim hitting attack. Standings \V. L.
