Weizmann Institute
Announces Developments

REHOVOT, - A chemical meth-
od developed at the Wiezmann
Institute of Science and concur-
rently at two foreign institutions,
makes it possible to determine
whether a particular material
originated from living or inanimate
matter.
It is expected to be useful for
biological, chemical and geochem-
ical tests. It can be employed, for
example, to determine the confi-
guration of amino acids in antibio-
tics.
Dr. Emanuel Gil-Av of the In-
stitute's organic chemistry de-
partment, who worked out the
method in Rehovot, has been
invited to deliver a lecture on
it at the Third Symposium on
Advances in Gas Chromato-
graphy, which will be held next
month at the University of
Texas.
Also announced at Rehovot was
the successful demonstration of a
novel method for desealing air-
craft integral fuel tanks. A group
of British and American experts
saw the demonstration at the Israel
Aircraft Industries, Lydda Air-
port.
The new Israeli chemical meth-
od p e r i t s one man with a
machine to do work formerly done
by large teams.

The Bloomfield Theater contin-
ues for a 10th week with William
Wyler's masterpiece of suspense,
"The Collector," with Terence
Stamp and Samantha Eggar. "The
Collector" is also shown at the
Studio Theater.

Usually it's the businessmen or
politicians or doctors who go to
conventions, but what about the
people who play dominoes, what
about the crossword puzzlers -
there are hundreds of different
groups like these - can't they ever
get a chance to go to a convention?
Israel seems to be looking out for
them.
Recently an international chess
convention was held in Israel and
of course there are the internation-
al Bible quizzes, and now there is
an international meeting of harp
players.
They are clever these Israelis -
they are not just interested in
Mapai and Mapam, they think of
everything. Whom do you think
they invited to Israel to judge
in the international harp contest?
Only the Israelis could have thought
of it. None other than Susan Marx,
widow of the late Harpo Marx.
Harpo himself visited Israel a
few years back and was then asked
to judge a harp contest, but he
declined, saying he didn't know
enough about music. Susan Marx
says she has no such humility.
She is a former Ziegfield Follies
beauty and speaking about inter-
national conventions, there is her
own family. They are an inter-
national convention. One of her
sons is Jewish, one is Irish and
the third is Mormon. The Irish
and Mormon chil d r en were
adopted.

Her late husband, Harpo Marx,
was unique among the film stars.
He was a kind of truth-uttering
buffoon, except that uttering seems
hardly the word, for he uttered
not a word, yet the whole world
understood him. When he visited
Turkey, he was acclaimed as much
as in Israel. He showed that there
is a universal language capable
of being understood by all - sil-
ence. Of course, now and then he
was helped out by the harp.
He hated all pompousness, says
his widow, and he liked nothing
better than to pull the rug out
from behind pretentiousness. He
thought success was largely to be
accounted for by luck. There was
not that much talent, he would say.
His own career was partly ac-
cidental. He happened to come
across an old harp and began
to play around with it. He never
took any instruction.
Recently, Isaac Stern, violinist,

was quoted as saying that his play-
ing the violin was as accidental.
The boy next door was taking
violin lessions, so his parents
decided to give him similar instruc-
tion. - The boy next door is today
an insurance agent. That's life for
you-or life insurance.
Nowadays Jews seem to go more
for the violin. It has been said
that the reason for this is, that
it is easier to run away with a
violin. The Jews never know when
they have to leave a place. In
ancient times, there seems to have
been a strong attachment between
the Jews and the harp, but once
out of the land, they dropped it.
The Bible says that when the Jews
were taken into Babylonian cap-
tivity, "they hung up their harps
on the willow trees, saying, how
can we sing the songs of Zion in a
strange land?"
* * *
David was a maestro of the
harp. Music had wider uses then.
It was used for therapy. When
King Saul was oppressed by
melancholy, little David was
brought to play for the King. And
the harp was a great molder of
the religious and national con-
sciousness. Today we recite the
Psalms, but the Psalms of David
indicate that they were to be ac-
companied by the "Kinor" or harp.
Probably in early times, they were
sung and played much like folk
songs, with the people joining in
the refrains.
The harp in different forms, has
been a favorite instrument of all
peoples. Today, the donkey is the
symbol of the Democratic Party,
but when Andrew Jackson ran for
President in 1828, the Democratic
symbol was a harp and hickory
-tree, showing the popularity of the
harp.

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Friday, October 15, 1965-33

The extension of Israel's railroad from Beersheba to Dimona
with the aid of Israel Bonds was marked this week with the arrival
of the first train in the growing community in the Negev desert west
of Sodom. The completion of the railroad, which links Dimona to the
coastal area, was one of the highlights of the celebration of the 10th
anniversary of the town, which can be seen in the background. The
beginning of this project was the occasion for a special ceremony
in Beersheba several years ago, at which Israel Bond leaders drove
the first spikes in the new rail line.
