Shaarey Tefila approved, by secret vote at a meeting on March 17, the ap- pointment of Rabbi Harvey Tattel- baum, who is currently rabbi of the Village Temple, another Man- hattan Reform congregation. He was named to succeed Rabbi Philip Schechter, who resigned March 2. Members of the Shaarey Tefila congregation voted at a stormy meeting on Feb. 16 in effect not to extend Rabbi Schechter's un- written contract. Rabbi Schech- ter contended he was dismissed by the board because he tried to "modernize procedures" of the 125-year-old synagogue. Rabbi Malcolm Stern, -chairman of the placement committee of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, the Ref or m rabbinical group, told the JTA that Rabbi Tattelbaum's quick appointment was on the basis of "the equivalent of an in-congregational promotion." Rabbi Tattelbaum was an assist- ant to Rabbi Bernard Bamberger at Shaarey Tefila from 1962 to 1965 when he was named to the Village Temple pulpit. $899 $899 Round trip via jet 1st Class Hotels Two meals a day Complete Sightseeing SCHEDULE OF SUMMER AND FALL 1971 TRIPS NOW AVAILABLE MAKE PLANS TO ATTEND The 62nd Annual Convention of the Religious Zionists of Amer- ica in Jerusalem, Aug. 4 to 8, 1971.

The endless sunshine and the calm azure waters lapping the shore, are proving an ever greater attraction for sun-worshipers from Israel and abroad. In the 21 years of its renewed existence Eilat has grown beyond the expectations of all but the most optimistic planners and today has about 14,000 inhabitants. The tre- mendous development of the town in the past few years has been .... ..,.$ firmly based on both the port ser- Marchers arriving in Jerusa- vices and tourism, with many of lem are shown passing two of the inhabitants earning their living the holy shrines of Islam and at the copper mines at Timna, some Judaism, the Mosque of Omar miles to the north, in the heart of and the Wailing Wall, at the the Negev desert. In addition, a Judaism, the Mosque of Omar number of light industries have closing of last year's Three-Day grown up, diversifying the town's economic infrastructure. March. Almost 25,000 sturdy souls from around the world plan to partici- pate in Israel's 1971 annual sports happening—the Three-Day March. Inaugurated in 1956 by the Israel Defense Forces, this unique event fulfills the age-old tradition of a pilgrimage to Jerusalem in the literal Hebrew sense — "ascending on foot." As a harbinger of Pass- over (starting on the eve of April 9) this year's march is scheduled for April 5, 6 and 7, with a pre- liminary briefing and gathering on April 4. Festivities include enter- tainment by army groups 'and many Israeli stars. Many consider it an excellent opportunity for fresh air and spring exercise. Close compan- ionships develop during the walk and in the camps that house hikers for the marathon. And everyone delights in the visual treats—historic sites, local flora, panoramic scenic beauty — that - are in store with every step. The most colorful sight of all, however, is that of the people, themselves, emerging from various points in the Judean Hills. Zig- zags, snake lines and other intri- cate formations liven up the high- ways and byways. Some groups even dance their way to the finish line. And the sound of music from live bands and hearty vocal chords help keep up rhythm, pace and spirit. Marchers outdo themselves with headgear, emblems and all kinds of gimmicks to gain recognition, as competitive cups are awarded for style, appearance and singing. As tourism is one of its most important facets, the town has de- veloped a string of good hotels ranging from the international standard deluxe to the clean. and inexpensive pensions and youth hostels. The town's reput- tion was built originally on its at- traction as a winter holiday resort, but in the past two years the city fathers have aimed at attracting year round tourism, and have seen their effects meet with consider- able success. The hot summer days are made bearable by the dryness of the climate, and many people claim that it is far preferable to the high humidity of towns like Tel-Aviv.
