TEL AVIV — An emotional ova-
tion by 3,000 Israelis, including
the prime minister and the defense
minister, greeted Soviet Yiddish
folk singer Nehama Lifshitz, a
new immigrant.
Soviet Jews hungry for identifi-
cation once packed her concerts to
hear songs she now sang in her
Israeli debut. One of the few re-
maining performers of the Jewish
stage still in Russia, Miss Lifshitz
last performed there Feb. 28. Her
concerts had been arranged by a
government concert agency that
determined how often she appear-

Israel Has Developed
World's Largest Mortar,
Military Journal Says
FOR THE BEST IN
MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT
TEL AVIV (JTA) — An Israeli '
armaments firm has developed a
160-mm. super-mortar that is al-
ready operational, it was disclosed
in the Independence Day issue of
Bamahaneh, the magazine of Is-
rael's armed forces.
The mortar, designed by engi-
neers and technicians of the Israel
Ordinance Corps, weighs a ton with
its battle equipment and is about
9 feet long. It is mounted on the
chassis of a converted Sherman
Priest tank and requires a crew of
seven to operate it.
According to Bamahaneh, mobile
mortars of such size and weight
do not exist in any other armies
in the world. A mortar is an infan-
try weapon that combines heavy
fire power with easy mobility.
Most conventional mortars have a
three or four-man crew and can
be transported by manpower or on
light trucks. But they lack the 7-
mile-range of the new Israeli
weapon.

In a radio interview before her
debut here, Miss Lifshitz told how,
in Odessa after the Six-Day War,
a man came backstage to shake
her hand. When they separated,
she found she was holding a
medallion with the image of De-
fense Minister Moshe Dayan that
her admirer had fashioned from a
picture clipped from a newspaper.
