OBITUARIES
to in J. N. Book Review, Dies at
Age 53; Memorialized in Book 'Able'
Friends, former classmates
and associates in the Hashomer
Hatzair movement with Abraham
Golan were saddened to learn of
his death on Oct. 22 at the age
of 53.
Golan was referred to in The
Jewish News review of "Between
Arab and Israeli," by Lt. Gen.
E. L. M. Bums (published by
Ivan Obolensky). Gen. Burns
was severely criticized for his
discourteous reference to Golan.
The review was published, with-
out the reviewer's knowledge,
after Golan's death.
Abe Golan was affectionately
called "Abie," and a Hebrew
memorial volume issued by the
Ein Hashofet settlement in Israel
in tribute to his memory is en-
titled "Abie."
He was one of the pioneers
who established Ein Hashofet
where his widow, Zippora, lives
with two daughters. Golan is sur-
vived by another daughter, who
lives in Nir Oz, a young Kibbutz
on the Ghana Strip border; a
grandson, his mother and a
brother. His brother and his
family reside in Haifa. Golan's
I In Memoriam
In memory of beloved hus-
band and father, Nathan Tobis-
man, who passed away Oct. 15,
1956. Although we are thous-
ands of miles apart, you are
always in our hearts. Sadly
missed by his wife and children,
brothers and sisters.
* * *
In loving memory of the late
Stanford Megdall, who passed
away two years ago. Sadly miss-
ed and always remembered by
his wife, children, brothers and
sisters.
The Family of the Late
ARTHUR
BENJAMIN
mother also resides in Ein
Hashofet.
The articles in the Ein Hasho-
fet volume, "Abie," are deeply
moving. In addition to biographi-
cal data, there are excerpts from
his writings, tributes by his wife,
a touching article by his brother
Zalman and a specially inter-
esting feature by his daughter
liana.
Yirmiyahu Haggai, former De-
troiter who recently returned to
Ein Hashofet after a visit here
with his mother and sister, calls
our attention, in a message from
Israel mourning Golan's death,
to two books on Ein Hashofet
that are based on a diary kept by
Abe Golan during the first year
of his settlement in Israel with
his wife.
In "Abie" appears also a trib-
ute to Golan by Prof. Harry Or-
linsky, noted American Biblical
scholar, who was Golan's class-
mate at the university in To-
ronto.
The tributes to Golan in
"Abie" show an appreciation for
his work, affection for him as a
man of high character and as a
builder of communal life in
Israel.

Traffic Light for Blind
The world's first traffic light
for the blind has been installed
in the Israeli town of Gedera,
near the Malben village for the

operates a special switch, the
signal halts traffic and a bell
rings to tell the blind person he
can cross safely.
