ZavuroV was sentenced to three years in prison Jan. 13. His sentence has been sharply condemned by Conference chairman and Brooklyn District Attor- ney Eugene Gold as a "harsh and subjective punishment" for the ac- ti•ist's attempt to emig- rate to Israel, a struggle which began in 1974. The trial and harsh sen- tence in the provincial town of Sharkhrizyabz, "was without a defense lawyer though Zavurov's father had secured coun- sel," Gold said. "The trial. was a clear cut violation of Soviet and international law, such as the Helsinki Final Act signed in August 1975, the same month Zavurov was given per- mission to emigrate," Gold stated. . restorers and conservators 399-1320 Detroit's Allied Jewish Campaign raised $16.5 million in 1976, including $5.4 million provided di- rectly to Israel through the Israel Emergency Fund. /()- STAINLESS FLATWARE w/double teaspoons $29.95-$34.95 Hostess Sets Available Spice Rack-Reg Cannister Set Teakettle COPCO * * * SZ Congregants Begin Fast With 'Adopted' Soviet Family NOW glA OFF $20.00 Now $14.95 $ 2 0.00 Now $14.95 $27.00 Now $19.95 New Arrivals Anne Klein Placemats and Napkins MINA Glass Dishes from Haly Now Open Stock Anticipate Your Holiday Needs See Our complete Line of Taylor & NG Woks — Tempura Sets Cepe PanGriddles— Omelet Always A Complete Selection Of Crystal, Pewter, Baskets Plexiglass Bath Boutique Etc.
