Arabic Children's Show Most Popular Program on Israeli Television
NEW YORK—Israel's most popu-
lar children's television program
is an all-Arabic production begun
after the Six-Day War, according
to an article in the June issue of
Hadassah magazine.
"We have various children's pro-
grams, but by the far most popu-
lar, all over Israel, is an Arabic
one, starring a young man, Sami,
and his puppet, Sussu," author
Rinna Samuel writes from Jeru-
salem.
"When it began, after the Six-
Day War, it was all in Arabic.
My own 7-year-old daughter
watched it religiously. It was im-
possible to tell how much, if
any, Arabic she was absorbing
but at least she got used to hear-
ing the language, the music, the

songs of the children with whom,
one way or another, she will
always have to live."
Mrs. Samuel continued: "The
response to 'Sarni and Sussu' was
so wholehearted that today it car-
ries Hebrew subtitles, and thou-
sands of Jewish. and Arab children
alike participate in its contests
and vie for its prices."
Another Arabic program which
Mrs. Samuel's 7-year-Old daughter
would not miss is the Arabic Fri-
day Night Movie.
