Sol Lifsitz Honored

Research Devices Given
by Weizmann Institute
to University in Ethiopia

REHOVOT — Six instruments
for nuclear physics research have
been donated by the Weizmann In-
stitute of Science to the Haile Se-
lassie University in Addis Ababa,
Ethiopia.
The instruments — two pulse
generators, two linear amplifiers
and two scalers — were manufac-
tured in the Weizmann Institute's
workshops and were used until re-
cently by the institute's nuclear
physics department for studies of
radioactivity.
A number of Israeli science in-
structors are employed by the
Haile Selassie University, and
when they found that they lacked
some of the equipment they need-
ed for teaching and research, they
turned to their countrymen for
assistance.

5 Sentenced in Israel
Over Autopsy Dispute

TEL AVIV, (JTA) — A Tel Aviv
district court sentenced to four
months' imprisonment five mem-
bers of a religious settlement in
Rehava, who rioted last May in
Kaplan Hospital at Rehovot in pro-
test against an autopsy performed
in the hospital on the body of a
Rehava settler.
In passing sentence, the judge
noted the "gravity" of the behavior
of the defendants in attacking hos-
pital personnel. He declined to,dis-
cuss the motives for the settlers'
action, declaring that the issue of
post-mortems was not within the
competence of his court.
The issue has evoked widespread
protests among Israel's Orthodox
Jews.
