came to its logical conclu-
sion: Racism and politics
violated the very purpose
and meaning of Olympic
traditions, destroyed the
spirit of peace, brotherhood
and sportsmanship inherent
in the Olympic Oath.
At the World University
Games in Moscow in 1973,
the Soviet Government
barred South Korean and
Israeli newsmen from cover-
ing the Games. Armed, uni-
formed Red Army soldiers
destroyed Israeli flags in
the spectator stands.
In the 1974 Asian Games
in Teheran, Chinese and
North Korean fencers
failed to appear for sched-
uled competitions with Is-
raelis, and a Kuwaiti ten-
nis player didn't show up
for his match against an
Israeli. The basketball
team of Pakistan aban-
doned the court minutes
before their game with
their Israeli competitors
was to begin. (Pakistan is
scheduled to host the
Asian Games in 1978.)
Chinese silver and bronze
winners refused to shake
hands with Israeli gold med-
alists Orit Abramovitz and
Esther Shachamurov-Roth.
Last year, India refused to
grant visas to the Israeli and
South African teams, thus
preventing their participa-
tion in the World Table Ten-
nis Championship in Cal-
cutta.

French Jews
Arrive in Israel
on Study Mission

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Each week some 60 Jews
from France arrive in Israel
to take part in Keren Haye-
sod study missions. Alto-
gether the program, named
"Pilgrimage" and run by the
United Jewish Appeal of
France will bring over 1,100
French Jews until the end of
April.
Shimshon Kreutner, KH
director-general, pointed
out that mission members
on the "Pilgrimage" pro-
gram are by no means all
from higher-income brack-
ets. Many are people of
modest means.
The program is in line
with the Jewish Solidarity
Conference resolution of
last December urging pilgri-
mages to Israel in 1976.

Censor Closes
Arab Newspaper

JERUSALEM — The Ar-
abic newspaper "A-Sha'ab"
has been ordered to shut
down for 14 days, for having
published an item the mili-
tary censor had barred as
being dangerous to public
order.
A month ago A-Sha'ab
was shut down for eight
days after it had violated
the censor's instructions
and published a banned se-
curity item.
The paper continued to ig-
nore the censor's orders
after it reappeared, despite
repeated warnings to its edi-
tor.
