Israel Appeals Import
Restrictions By Italy
JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Israel
appealed to the General Agree-
ment on Tariffs and Trade
(GA'I'T) to intervene with Italy
regarding stiff restrictions im-
posed on imports into Italy of
Iracli bromine and ethyl dibro-
mide.
Israel contended that the Ital-
ian imposition of import quotas
an Israeli products was "illegal
because both countries are mem-
. hers of GATT." Israeli officials
said the restrictions were costing
the Dead Sea Works $1,500,000
in loss of orders.
Jews in Sports
By HAROLD U. RIBALOW

Boxing and Israel
It is ironic that as boxing
falls into greater disrepute in
the United States, it gains favor
in Israel, of all places!
Recently, Israel asked to be
included as a member of the
European Boxing Federation,
and the request was turned
down on the ground that Israel
was not in Europe. But hope is
not entirely lost, for the con-
gress of the Federation an-
nounced that Tel Aviv may be
the site for the European ban-
tamweight title fight between
Pietro Roll of Italy and Al-
phonse Halimi, now of France.
Halimi is a Jew and once was
a fierce and winning fighter.
Israel has golf, so why not
boxing: from the gentle' to the
violent.
S
A Query on Koufax
There is no question but that
Sandy Koufax of the Los An-
geles Dodgers is now an authen-
tic star. Every time he pitches
he threatens a record, or breaks
one. On May 26, for example,
he won his sixth game of the
year and struck out 16 Phila-
delphia Phillies along the way.
At that point he had fanned 10
or more men three times this
year—and in 34 different games
during his career.
Sandy has never pitched in
the minor leagues. He was sign-
ed up by the Dodgers as a
bonus player in the winter of
1954 and joined the club for
the season of 1955. He then
appeared in only 12 games and
made a mark of two victories
and two defeats. He struck out
30 but walked 28. The following
year he again won two and lost
twice as many, four. He appear-
ed in 16 games. Not very im-
pressive. In 1957, however, he
pitched more frequently. He got
into 34 games and pitched 104
innings, more than in the two
previous years (combined). He
won five and lost four. He fan-
ned 122 and walked 51, an indi-
cation that control was coming
his way. In 1958, now with Los
Angeles, Sandy started to win
in double figures: 11, alas, he
lost as many. And he was too
wild. He walked 105 and struck
out 131. Still a pitcher without
real control. In 1959 and 1960
he struggled. He won eight
games in each year. In 1959 he
lost six and in 1960, 13. His
strikeouts mounted to 173
(1959) and 197 (1960). Last
year he made it-18 victories
and 13 defeats and 268 strike-
outs.
His record-54 wins and 53
losses going into 1962. And six
wins and two defeats so far this
season. Not impressive, except
for the brilliance of the victo-
ries. Twenty-four of his 60 suc-
cesses have come in 1961 and
1962. He is on his way and is
now only 27.
3 Israeli Bakers
Fined for Selling
Surpluses Illegally
TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Three
owners of a bakery in the Poale
Agudat Israel collective village,
Kommeniut, were fined 250
pounds ($33) for selling bread
surpluses for fodder without a
license.
The offense was discovered
during the police search for clues
to the whereabouts of Yoselle
Schumacher, who was believed to
have been hidden at the village
during the more than two years
since his abduction by Orthodox
Jews who feared his parents
would not give him a sufficiently
orthodox education.
Police encountered a bakery
van enroute from Kommeniut to
a pig farm on a leftist kibbutz.
The convicted men were Reuven
Kutt, Achyahu Yomas and Pinhas
Fisher.
Bolt's 'Man for All
Seasons' Great Play
Broadway crowds continue to
crave for seats at the Anta
Theater for the year's best
play, "A Man for All Seasons,"
by Robert Bolt. Until last
month, Paul Scofield played
the lead role of Sir Thomas
More. Emlyn Williams took
over this part less than a month
ago, and new attention is being
attracted to the play, due to its
undimmed popularity as the
biggest hit of the year.
The Robert Bolt play "A
Man for All Seasons" has just
been published by Random
House. In book form it holds the
reader's attention as firmly as
the stage players do the
theatergoers.
It deals with the period in
history when Henry VIII, dis-
pleased that r Catherine would
not bear him a son, insisted on
divorcing - her and marrying
Anne Boleyn. Sir Thomas More,
as Chancellor, did not give his
consent, since it was against
Church rules. That's when
Henry VIII broke with the
Vatican and created the foun-
dation for the Church of Eng-
land.
There is great power to the
play, as there is to the his-
torical aspect of it. More's role
is magnificent. Refusing to
yield, going to the scaffold for
his denial of the king's en-
treaties, More told his friend
Norfolk: "I can't give in . . .
You might as well advise a man
to change the color of his eyes."
The play should be seen, and
the book is eminently worth
reading as a splendid literary-
dramatic accomplishment.
Attorney in Eichmann
Case on Trial for
Falsifying Qualification
JERUSALEM, (JTA) —
Yaakov Bar-Or, former Tel Aviv
district attorney, at present sus-
pended, and an assistant prose-
cutor at the Eichmann trial, will
be tried shortly in a District
Court here on charges of falsely
posing as a qualified lawyer, it
was announced by the Ministry
of Justice.
The Ministry did not specify
whether he would be tried in
the Tel Aviv court, where he
had appeared as prosecutor, or
whether the trial would be
transferred to the Jerusalem or
Haifa District Courts.
The indictment charges that
Bar-Or obtained his registration
as a lawyer, and a salary on a
professional grading scale, by
making false claims about his
professional qualifications. He
was suspended from his post on
May 31 — the day after Eich-
mann's execution, after charges
were investigated by the police.
Miami Bigot Posts
Bond for Rockwellites
(JTA) — A City of
Miami fireman with a known
anti-Semitic background posted
bond for two members of the
American Nazi party arrested
here while picketing the office
of the Anti-Defamation- League
of Bnai Brith.
The two Nazis, Roger C. Foss
and Gene Shalander, were taken
into "protective custody" after
they were threatened by a hos-
tile crowd. Later they were
charged with disturbing the
peace, assaulting a police officer,
inciting to riot and possible va-
grancy.
Bond of $250 was posted for
Foss and $150 for Shalander by
Warren C. Chapman, who said he
represented a group of "inter-
ested citizens" who had raised
the money.
Chapman's anti-Semitic lean-
ings became publicized when he
told a Miami News reporter that
while he was not a member of
the American Nazi party, he sup-
ported it because it was "the
only organization which stands
up against the Zionist conspir-
acy."
