400 Arabs Participate With Jews in Festive
Folklore Evening at the Hebrew University
JERUSALEM — The Hebrew
University was the site of a recent
Arab-Jewish "folklore evening," as
the university's Adult Education
Center marked the opening of the
fourth year of its Arab-Jewish cul-
tural project. The gala event was
attended by more than 600, includ-
ing some 350 Arabs from East
Jerusalem and 50 Israeli Arabs
from Haifa, who joined in com-
munal singing of Arab and He-
brew songs.
It was the first time that Arabs
from East Jerusalem had attended
in such numbers a function at the
Hebrew University.
The Arab-Jewish cultural proj-
ect, begun just after the Six-Day
War, this year encompasses the
teaching of Hebrew to 250 East
Jerusalem Arabs, an increase
of 40 per cent since last year,
and Arabic to 150 Jews from
West Jerusalem, up by 150 per
cent since last year. The lessons
are conducted at the Ecce Homo
Convent of the Sisters of Zion
Order, on Via Dolorosa in the
Old City of Jerusalem.
In addition to this year's Arab
students, some 100 former Arab
participants in the program, who
maintain contact with the Adult
Education Center, attended the
evening.
The university's Wise Auditor-
ium on the Givat Earn campus
was filled to capacity when Jeru-
salem Mayor Teddy Kollek opened
the evening by wishing "this con-
structive activity" all good
for its new academic year.
Greetings also were brought by
Kalman Yaron, director of the
Adult Education Center and prime
mover of the project, who recalled
the modest beginning 31/2 years
ago and said that if the present
development continues, next year's
opening might take in Jerusalem's
largest convention hall.
He expressed the hope that in
two years the Adult Education
Center would move into its own
building, to be named for Martin
Buber, on the university's Mount
Scopus campus.
Yaron said that "We do not
limit ourselves only to language
teaching, as this is only a means
for fostering better understanding,

wonderful testimony of the man-

discuss problems together."

from East Jerusalem, also thanked
the university for arranging the
evening and establishing the edu-
cational project.
He mentioned the Golden Age of
Spain in the Middle Ages — the
blossoming period of the Arab and
Jewish culture, which inspired th‘•
two peoples in great
os.ientific achievements.
Shanti said that he believed
it is possible that such a cultural
and social renaissance may come
about in this generation.
Prof. Aharon Kleinberger, He-
brew University associate profes-

the board of the Adult Education

Arab University
Planned, Allon Says
JERUSALEM (ZINS) — Educa-
tion Ministei Yigal Allon has con-
firmed that officials of his min-
istry are preparing plans for the
founding of an Arab university- in
Ramallah, which was previously
part of Jordan.
About a year ago, Moshe Dyan
conferred with Arab spokesmen in
the liberated areas about the es-
tablishment of such a university,
but they declined to consider the
proposal, insisting that their young
people would use the academic
facilities in Amman, capital of
Jordan.
It now appears that the Arab
leaders have altered their view
and are more receptive to the pro-
posal, because many. Arab parents
have qualms about sending their
children to Jordan which lives
under the threat of bloody civil
war.
Orthodox Aversion
to TV Fails to Stop
Popularity in Israel
JERUSALEM (ZINS) — Tele-
vision crews who converged on the
Wailing Wall to photograph some
5,000 worshipers were met with
epithets and some physical beat-
ings at the hands of the unwill-
ing subjects.
This deep-seated anti-television
feeling among the observant Jews
of Jerusalem provoked a Beth Din
of the Nature! Karta to excommu-
nicate a Idea Shearim Jew who
owned a television set.
The rabbinical court ruled that
no person may have any contact
with the excommunicated Jew un-
til he repents and removes the
television set from his home.
This case, however, seems to
have little or no impact on televi-
sion buying. Three years ago,
there were 40,000 television sets
In use; now there are 350,000,
desPite the high cost of the ap-
pliance. More than 50 per cent of
all Israel families now have to:L. -
