Archeology Seminar Is Added
to Young Adult Israel Trips
NEW YORK — A seven-week
archeology seminar, which en-
ables students to earn six credits
at Tel Aviv University by attend-
ing two weeks of lectures and dig-
ging at Tel Beersheva in the Negev
for four weeks, has been added to
the 1970 summer programs of the
American Zionist Youth Founda-
tion.
Dr. Arnulf M. Pins, chairman of
the board of trustees of the Amer-
ican Zionist Youth Foundation,
said the student-members of the
seminar will participate in Negev
tours and attend additional lec-
tures. At the conclusion of the
seven weeks, they have the option
of going home or staying on in Is-
rael at their own expense for three
additional weeks.
The AZYF recently also intro-
duced two other college-age pro-
grams for the coming summer: an
eight-week university study group
program and a Yavneh religious
Israel summer institute.
Another new program just open-
ed to both college and high school
students is the seven-week art
seminar, in cooperation with the
Ein Hod Artist Village and the
Rubin Academy of Music.
The AZYF, in cooperation with
the Weizmann Institute in Reho-
voth, is again offering the Weiz-
mann Summer Science Seminar.
The seven-week program provides
high school students with an inten-
sive study period at the Weizmann
Institute and aroused much inter-
est last year when it was first in-
troduced.
In addition to these programs,
the AZYF 1970 Israel summer
programs now open for registra-
tion to college students include:
Summer in Kibutz, 10 weeks;
Israel Summer Institute, seven
weeks; Folk Dance Workshop,
seven weeks; and Leadership
Training Seminar for College

tute, junior division, seven weeks;
and affiliated summer institutes
conducted by AZYF for United
Synagogue Youth, National Fed-
eration of Temple Youth, Bnai
folk dance workshop, seven
(Beth Ruthenberg), eight weeks;
and Jewish Center groups, seven
weeks.
Approximately 2,500 American
Jewish high school and college
students are expected to partici-
pate in the American Zionist Youth
Foundation Israel summer pro-
grams this summer.
Rabin Bails Ex-President
of Jewish Conference
NEW YORK (JTA)—Ambassa-
dor Itzhak Rabin of Israel paid
tribute to the leadership of Rabbi
Herschel Schacter, retiring after
two years as chairman of the Con-
ference of Presidents of Major
American Jewish Organizations
and to the conference as "the
powerful and courageous voice of
a unified American Jewish com-
I munity in support and defense of
the Jewish people in Israel and
around the world."
He spoke at a luncheon here
honoring Rabbi Schacter, who is
retiring after two years as Confer-
ence chairman. Other speakers in-
cluded Dr. William Wexler, presi-
dent of Bnai Brith, who succeeds
Rabbi Schacter; Rabbi Joachim
Prinz, who preceded him as chair-
man; and Yehuda Hellman, execu-
tive director of the conference.
Morris Lieberman, chairman
of the Detroit Israel Histadrut
Campaign, will introduce the
members of the panel, which also
includes MenahemR
young visiting scholar from Is-
rael who is connected with the
Institute for Social Research at
the University of Michigan,
where he is director of the So-
cial Research Center for the
study of kibutz life.
Serving as moderator will be
Dr. William W. Wattenberg, act-
ing chairman of the educational
psychology department at Wayne
State University.
Dr. Bettelheim is a Vienna-born
disciple of Freud and one of the
world's foremost authorities on
childhood psychosis.
In his most recent book, "The
Children of the Dream," Dr. Bet-
telheim said that his studies of
child rearing in the Israeli
kibutz o r agricultural c o m-
mune had shown that "it is possi-
ble to create a viable personality
type wholly different from that of
the parents, in a single genera-
tion." Kibutz children as infants
are sent to live in their own quar-
ters within the commune, under
the supervision of trained child
care workers. They see their par-
ents only a few hours a day. Dr.
Bettelheim favors trying the prin-
ciple of this system with slum
children. His findings forced him to
modify his theory about the fam-
ily's indispensability to a secure
childhood.
Dr. Bettelheim is the director of
the Orthogenic School, the Univer-
sity of Chicago Residential Treat-
ment Center for severely emotion-
ally disturbed children. In an age
of confrontation politics, Dr. Bettel-
heim is counter-Speck and often
referred to as the Dr. No of -child-
care authorities. Many of youth's
problems, he believes, can be
traced to the indifferent, contradic-
tory and easy-going approach that
passes for "permissiveness," a
term that he says, has very little
meaning.
Dr. Bettelheim is a founding
member of the National Academy
of Education, a fellow and diplo-
mat of the American Psychological
Association, a fellow of the Ortho-
psychiatric Association, a member
!of the Chicago Psychoanalytic So-
ciety and of the Chicago Council
for Child Psychiatry. He is mar-
' ried, and the father of three grown
children. Mrs. Bettelheim is a so-
cial worker.
