pated in a volunteer pro-
gram helping children and
teenagers in Or Yehuda and

"The kids learn more
English, more rapidly,
when they play basketball
or soccer, than they would
if we came just to teach
them English" was the con-
sensus of the students from
many different sections of
the United States, who are
studying in the Overseas
Student Programs at the

Begin Emissary Finds Favor Toward Israel in Congress
o-
WASHINGTON (JTA )-
The personal representative
of Israeli Premier Men-
ahem Begin who has been
assessing American senti-
ment toward Begin's lead-
ership during the past four
weeks said that he found "a
considerable degree of un-
derstanding" among approx-
imately 50 members of Con-
gress with whom he has spo-
ken and that the Jewish
community is "solidly be-
hind Israel."
Shmuel Katz is expected
to take charge of his coun-
try's information program.
He said "The atmosphere
was not very pleasant"
when he first arrived here
"as a result of severe, even
horrendous, reaction in the
American media" to the Is-
raeli election results, but
now the climate "is quite
different."
He said he found "no con-
flict" among the Congress-

Their involvement should
