Potpourri of Israeli Happenings
By MOSHE RON
TEL AVIV—The first families of
the settlers in Hebron moved last
week from their temporary resi-
dence in a military compound to
their new apartments. The first set-
tlers, who came two years ago to
Hebron, occupied the 13 newly-
built flats. They hope that the mili-
tary authorities will now issue per-
mits for new settlers, who will be
able to move into the old evacuated
apartments. In the vicinity of the
new houses are also buildings for
public institutions and a clinic.
It was the first time since the
return to Hebron after the. Six-Day
War that the settlers expressed
their satisfaction about the military
authorities.

to Probe Firing of
Columbia Chaplain
NEW YORK (JTA) — The New
York Commission on Human Rights
will begin a full-scale investigation
of Columbia University's firing of
its Jewish chaplain, Rabbi A. Bruce
Goldman.
The commission decided to hear
the case after preliminary investi-
gations in which the rabbi charged

at Columbia is a direct result of
discrimination on the basis of re-
ligion against a Jew, namely this
rabbi, by a group of Jews whose
essential concern is neither Juda-
ism nor the welfare of its Jewish
students or faculty."
Rabbi Goldman and the Protes-
tant chaplain, Rev. William F.
Starr, were notified two months
ago that their contracts would not
be renewed after June 30. Both
supported radical students in last
year's uprising at Columbia.
Named as respondents in Rabbi
Goldman's complaint to the com-
mission were Columbia's trustees,
the Jewish Advisory Board of the
Office of the Jewish Chaplain, and
the latter board's chairman, thea-
trical producer Gerard Oestreicher.
The advisory board, made up of
55 Columbia alumni, has led the
fight to oust the 33-year-old rabbi
and replace him with Rabbi Isidor
B. Hoffman, 71, Columbia's chap-
lain for 34 years until his retire.
