Reliable sources report that
Avraham Harman, former Israel

and now the directing head of
the Jewish Agency in Israel,
will succeed Abba Eban as
Israel's Ambassador to the
United States.
Eban's resignation, to enable
him to campaign for the Knes-
set in Israel next fall, appears
now to be a certainty.
Harman was the guest
speaker here three weeks ago
at the opening meeting of the
Detroit Allied Jewish Campaign,
at th home of Mr. and Mrs. C.
William Sucher.

Kaufman said.
John Isaacs, accepting the
chairmanship, expressed the
hope that there will be a gen-
erous response to the appeal by
Detroiters to help fight "the
second greatest killer in this
country." He said that no ap-
peals will be made until after
the completion of the Allied
Jewish Campaign now being
conducted by the Jewish Wel-
fare Federation.

"One of my recent

if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. Not Las Vegas and not even the
French Riviera, but XANADU, except that Kubla Khan was not so hot at
the dining table. At the Hotel Algiers, you could actually hear the heavy table

creaking under the weight of the food, and what food; and what a story — ah,
if I can only capture a bit of the flavor; but at least you know that I will try."•
