Dr. Shlomo Noble, vice
chairman of YIVO's commis-
sion on research and train-
ing, now translating the
"history" into English touch-
ed upon the work as a his-
tory of Ashkenazic culture.
Begun 1,000 years ag in
the Lothar area of the Rhine
River, this culture — later to
spread to Slavic lands,
America, South Africa and
Israel — declared its inde-
pendence from Eastern
Jewry through a 10th Cen-
tury ban on polygamy. Like
the Eastern cultures, it was
based upon the Babylonian
Talmud.
The Seltzer-Broksky Prize
for best essay in English on
a Jewish topic was won by
Robert Cohen, a Brandeis
University student, for "Jew-
ish Families in the 18th Cen-
tury in New York."
The Hillel Rogoff Award
for best high school essay in
Yiddish was shared by Leybl
Botwinik of Montreal, for
"Mensh un- Khaye" (Man
and Beast) and Rukhl
Schaechter of New York, for
"Di Yidishe Literatur un Di
Hayntige Yugnt" (Yiddish
Literature and Contemporary
Youth).

Graves of Fathers Found at Suez Canal
TEL AVIV (ZINS)—Three
Israeli soldiers have found
the graves of their fathers
who died while serving the
British army in Egypt during
World War II on the west
bank of the Suez Canal.
"We've been looking for
our fathers' graves for 33
years; we knew they have
been buried near Ismailya,"
they said. The soldiers have
applied for permission to have
the remains transferred to
Israel.
Meanwhile, teams of mili-
tary chaplains with members
of Israel's burial societies
are searching battle sites near
the Suez Canal for killed Is-
raeli soldiers previously listed
as missing. This need was
discovered when lists showed
more men were unaccounted
for than previously supposed.
A prisoners of war list re-
ceived from Egypt was
rather small. Many "miss-
ing" men are now believed
to have actually died in
battle.
