Egypt Confiscates
$100,000 Cargo
from Dutch Ship

WASHINGTON (JTA) — United
States officials were investigating
the confiscation by Egypt of a
$100,000 American cargo removed
from a Dutch ship accused of
dealing with Israel.
The cargo, consisting of Ameri-
can-made trucks and excavating
equipment, was seized by the Egyp-
tians as the Dutch ship was at-
tempting to pass through the Suez
Canal.
The trucks and equipment had
been picked up in Somalia, where
it had been sold to an unidenified
British firm by Paul Smith Con-
struction Company, of Tampa, Fla.
It was not clear whether the Tam-
pa concern or the British firm
owned the cargo, but the Egyptians
claimed that purchase of the equip-
ment had been facilitated through
a loan by the Swiss-Israel Trade
Bank of Geneva.
Marine sources here said there
was doubt whether the cargo could
have been bound for Israel since
a shipment from Somalia to Israel
would not have to go through the
Suez Canal, using instead the route
to Eilat, Israel via the Gulf of
Aqaba.

Know any Jewish bullfighters?
Miami Beach recently played host
to one. He is 21-year-old Randy
Sasson of Columbia in South
America. In the Spanish bullrings
he is known as "El Andaluz" and
on the cape he carries is emblazon-
ed a Star of David.
Sasson first entered the bull-
ring at the age of 14 and was
promptly gored. Despite this in-
itial setback he went back into the
ring and has since been gored on
three other occasions. All this over
the strong objections of his
parents.
Sasson has six more months to
go before he earns a university
degree in engineering. However
Randy intends to keep fighting
bulls. "I'll always be an amateur,"
he said, "Ill take the money but
I won't ask for it."
Sasson is not the first Jew to test
himself in the bullring. The first
was Sidney Franklin of Brooklyn
who was a favorite in Spain in the
1920s and 30s.

Touring golf pro Roger Gins-
berg is beginning to make others
take note. Ginsberg has been play-
ing the circuit since 1963 but it
was't until this year that anybody
cared. Now, however, he is begin-
ning to win himself some money.
His biggest moment came after
the second round of the $100,000
Buick Open. He was in second
place with a 141. It didn't last.
He ended up tied for 11th place
with a 72-hole total of 291 rounds
of 71-70-76-74. He pocketed $1,975
for his efforts.
That was not his biggest payoff.
It came at the Memphis Open
where Ginsberg took down $2,175
on a 72-hole total of • 277. This
tied him for ninth place with
rounds of 67-70-72-68. Some of
Ginsberg's other checks have read
$725 at the Western Open; $700 at
the New Orleans Open; and $637
at the Minnesota Golf Classic. He
failed to qualify for the U.S. Open.
This may not be top money, but
to a guy who was 136th on the pro
money list in 1965, well. Ginsberg
who is from New York is especi-
ally happy when he does well be-
cause there are so few New
Yorkers on the tour. He almost
gave up touring last year after
he got married, but he has now
decided to be a full-fledged
touring pro.
His father, Robert, is a prosper-
ous fur merchant. He wrote the
$10,000 check that gave Roger
his start on the tour. The elder
Ginsberg feels it is the best in-
vestment he ever made.

helped his school defend its NCAA

At the Trans-Mississippi amateur
he was runner-up to the medal win-
ner with a 36-hole total of 138, then
reached the quarterfinals of the
match play.

Dick Sider° wf, a 28-year-old
stockbroker from Westport, Conn.,
has been playing superior golf this
season. The part-time performer is
one of the best amateurs in the
East. His first big win of the year

Memorial golf tournament in New
York, he shot an even par 216 for
54-holes. Siderowf followed that by
winning the William Rice Hoch-
ster Memorial in New York with
a 36-hole 73-75 — 148.
The Connecticut star then cap-
tured the Northeast Invitational in
Rumford, R.I., as he shot a record
209 for 54-holes on rounds of 70-
68-71. He lost the Ike golf champ-
ionships at the Wyckagyl Country
Club in New Rochelle, N.Y., on a
sudden death playoff.
