The 200 Israeli educators came
to serve as counselors and program
specialists on a variety of camps
under the auspices of th American
Zionist Youth Foundation.
The arrangements in Israel for
the program, which has been ex-
panded greatly this year. have been
made by the youth and hehalutz
department of the Jewish Agency
in Jerusalem.
The Israeli men and women who
contribute to a strengthened pres-
ence of Israel in the Jewish sum-
mer camps serve on the staffs of
the camps as general counselors

zin, towns and cities all over Israel

Wayne State University's student
newspaper, The South End, was
published independently this week
by staff members, after being ban-
ned by University president Wil-
liam Rea Keast.

The paper, which liberally con-
tained obscene language, was sold
on the street by volunteer student
newsboys. The paper was aided in
part by the Michigan underground
newspapers, the Ann Arbor Argus
and Detroit's Fifth Estate.

Keast scrapped a special 24-page
issue last week as the edition was
at the printers.

In addition, a group of 20 Israeli
boy and girl scouts are visiting the
Hashahar camps and attend the
Jamboree at Idaho this month.

'- I am convinced that its pub-
lication would do serious damage
to Wayne State University and to
the future of student journalism
here. - Keast said. The president
also canceled staff members sal-
aries.

Gromyko Repeats
Withdrawal Demand

With unabashed language, Cheryl
McCall, 19, summer editor of the
paper, described Keast as a "cow-
ard" who "doesn't understand
young people."

LONDON (JTA) — Soviet For-
eign Minister Andrei Gromyko
reiterated before the Soviet par-
liament Russia's insistence that
Israel must withdraw from all
occupied territories as a prerequi-
site for peace in the Middle East.
He also proposed in an address to
the Supreme Soviet that the Big
Powers create a nuclear-free zone
in the Mediterranean.
He spoke on the eve of arrival
in Moscow of U.S. Assistant Secre-
tary of State for Near Eastern Af-
fairs Joseph Sisco, who discussed
the Mid East situation with top So-
viet officials, in a continuation of
the United States--Soviet dialogue
which has been underway in Wash-
ington for several months.
Gromyko's proposal for a nu-
clear-free Mediterranean indicated
that the topic of arms reduction
probably would be discussed. No
Middle East state at present is
known to possess nuclear weapons
although it is generally conceded
that Israel has the technical know-
how to produce them. Israel has
said it would stand by its pledge
not to he the first nation to intro-
duce nuclear weapons to the Mid-
dle East.
The U.S. Sixth Fleet which reg-
ularly patrols the Eastern Medi-
terranean is nuclear-armed. The
Soviets have never said whether
the large fleet they now have in
the Mediterranean is nuclear• arm-
ed but many sources believe it is.
France is the only nuclear power
on the Mediterranean Sea.
Gromyko also told the Supreme
Soviet that the Soviet Union "would
like to see the United States take
a more realistic position rather
than pursue a policy based on tem-
porary considerations" in working
out an Arab-Israeli settlement. He
maintained that the Arabs were
ready to settle but the "Israeli
leaders are following a slippery
road of unfounded ambition." He
emphasized. however, that the
rights of all states, including Is-
rael. should be respected.

of Rights" claiming "total free-
dom" of the press for the Paper-

Keast said the suspension will
continue until a newly formed Stu-
dent Publication Board of four stu-
dents and two faculty members can
develop policies and guidelines fur
the newspaper.
