Jewish-Arab Folklore LA Jewish Centers
Group Tours Denmark Purchase Camp Site
COPENHAGEN (JTA) — The
Jewish-Arab folklore and dance
group, "Hora," has arrived here
for the third time in a few years
to perform in various Danish towns.
"flora," which is sponsored by the
municipality of Jerusalem and un-
der the patronage of Mayor Teddy
Kollek, arrived as guests of the
Jewish Danish community and the
international organization, "People
to People."
The importance of the troupe's
impact on Danish public opinion
has been measured by the reaction
of one of Copenhagen's newspapers
which wrote, during the group's
last visit: "When you see these
young Israelis and Arabs dancing
together you ask yourself why
whatever happens inside 'Elora'
could not happen elsewhere in the
Middle East."

LOS ANGELES (JTA) — The
Jewish Centers Association has an-
nounced purchase of a 120-acre
site in the Malibu Mountains for a
camp which will enable the JCA
to expand by one-third its facilities
for camping.
The association operates Camp
JCA in the San Bernardino Na-
tional Forest which the associa-
tion says serves 1,200 campers in
summer programs. These include
three junior sessions, a teen ses-
sions, a Teen Age Service Corps
group and a counsellor-in-training
group. The camp also offers win-
ter and spring sessions and accom-
odations for weekend conferences.
Officials said plans are being
made for facilities to accomodate
450 campers for the 1972 season at
the new site. Purchase was expe-
dited by a grant from the Hersh-
Kuttnauer fund of the Jewish Com-
