TEL AVIV — In theIsi-
raeli monthly, "Davar FIa-
poelet" an article appeared
about the problems of Arab
girls in Israel.
A student, Agbarie, told
the editor Zvia Cohen, that
Arab women have made
great progress during the
first years of Israel state-
hood. The Israeli laws put
an end to bigamy among the
Arabs. Another law com-
pelled Arab couples to send
their children to primary

Collegei Condemn UN Anti-Zion Rule
GROSSINGER, N.Y. —
American college campuses,
otherwise politically apath-
etic-these days, ignited with
Jewish student protests over,
the UN's equating Zionism
with racism, a survey by
Bnai Brith Hillel Founda-
tions reported.
Rallies and demonstra-
tions,. petition-gathering
and teach-ins on Zionism
erupted on scores of cam-
puses, with crowds of 200
to 1,500 denouncing the an-
ti-Semitic implications of
the UN 'resolution.
The survey also noted -
that "for the first time since
the 1967 war" Christian
clergy on campus, a group
that, by and large, has been
silent on, if not outwardly
hostile toward, Israeli polit-
ical stances, were -outspoken
and forceful in "condemning
the anti-Zionist resolution.
-\ College sentiment was
also reflected in the cam-
pus press, which is' often
critical of Israel and, sym-
pathetic to the aspirations
of Palestinian Arabs,
Fishman said.
A spot survey of editorial
comment on 30 of the laig-
est campuses showed wide-
spread condemnation of the
UN resolution. "The' Michi-
gan Daily" of the University
of Michigan in a typical edi-
ial, called it a "document
den with hypocrisy . . .
rooted almost entirely in
fallacy."

difficulties to find a room

They have to return each
evening to their distant
villages.
Only a few Arab girls
have the opportunity' to
study in universities. A few
of them finish studies in
high school. They have diffi-
culty leahiing Hebrew.

TEL AVIV — (ZINS) —
During the 1950's Ben-Gur-
- ion wanted to convert Be-
douin families roaming the
desert and had even ob-
tained the agreement of the
late Chief Rabbi, Yitzhak
Halevi Herzog, it was re-
vealed to a gathering of reli-
-gious youth by Israeli Gen-
eral Geva.
He added, however, that
the plan never came to frui-
tion because of the army's
opposition, who were intent
on employing the Bedouins
in the gathering intellig-
ence.
