by WSU's president.
In his letter notifying Dr.

"You have won for yourself
a place in the hearts of all
your colleagues and a respect

campus. I can only wish you
great happiness and content-

Honor Physicist Pauli
REHOVOT — The Weizmann

60th anniversary of the birth
of the great physicist, Wolfgang
Pauli, in a ceremony organized
by his former colleagues and
students, among them some of
the world's leading physicists.
WASHINGTON, (JTA)—The
District of Columbia public
school system made known that
it has rejected a new World
Affairs pamphlet because it
seeks to blarne Jews for Com-
munism in South Africa.
The pamphlet, published in
the "Headline Series" of the
Foreign Policy Association,
stated that Communist leader-
ship in South Africa "is mostly
white and, as in similar groups
in Europe, often Jewish."
William H. - Jenkins, supervis-
ing director of the history de-
partment of the District school
system, considered the pam-
phlet non-objective and ques-
tionable. Teachers were told
to stop using it because of the
controversial reference to Jews.
It had been used in a course on
world problems.
The Foreign Policy Associa-
tion describes itself as "a na-
tional educational organization
serving the American People."
It claims to be non-partisan,
non-governmental and non-
profit. Jenkins commented that
the association's "H e a d 1 i n e
Series" had previously been
considered reasonably good.
The African pamphlet, Jenkins
said, was "the first one with a
statement as radical as this."
The school board authorized
the classroom use of the "Head-
line Series" in 1958. Jenkins
has now asked teachers to care-
fully check other pamphlets in
the series before assigning
them to students.
year students of the Midrasha,
College of Jewish Studies, un-
der the direction of the poet,
Michael Deshe, who is on the

This occasion will mark the
70th birthday of the poetess
Rachel, who was among the
first Jewish women in modern
time to re-echo the beginning
of a new era for the East Euro-
pean Hebrew youth—the era of
Halutzism (pioneering) in the
Holy Land. She was also among
the first Jewish women who
preached, through her poetry,
the love for Mother Earth and
the idea of collective life which
is now known as the kibbutz
society.
Readings in Hebrew from her
poetic writings will be present-
ed by the following students:
Dan Atlas, Arella Barley, Rivka
Barley, Shoshana Bass, Eran
Geller, Nira Bielawsky, Joshua
Geller, Rena Harari, Bruria
Heltne, Abraham Levy, Jacob
Roth, Oded Rubinstein, Joseph

The musical portion of the
program will be under the di-
rection of Hannah Stiebel, with
Ariel Stiebel at the piano. The
soloists will be Arella Barley,
vocalist; Israel Hochberg, cha-
lil; Oded Rubinstein, drum.
The public is invited to at-
tend.
