nuity, Dr. Leib plans to at-

Egyptian Ambassador Ash-
raf Ghorbal and Israeli Am-
bassador Simha Dinitz, who
have been representing
their countries to the United
States for several years
without communicating
with each other, conversed
like old friends and toasted
each other at a private din-

"It's a genuinely warm
kind of evening," an official
of the American Broad-
casting Company which ar-
ranged the dinner at the
Madison Hotel said.
The dinner, hosted by
ABC-Television com-
mentator Barbara Walters,
was attended by about 50

ham Ribicoff (D-Conn. ),

Inducements for Yordim Asked
JERUSALEM (JTA)—A
special Knesset committee
recommended that yordim
who participated in the
Yom Kippur War should be
entitled to substantial ben-
efits similar to those grant-
ed new immigrants if they
return to Israel before the
nation marks the 31st anni-
versary of independence in
the spring of 1979.
Yordim are Israelis who
have left the country and
settled permanently abroad.
The committee, headed
by Assaf Yaguri of the
Democratic Movement for
Change, proposed that each
returnee would receive vou-
chers for tax _exemption on
various goods and rent sub-
sidies from the government.
Loans up to IL 80,000
would be granted toward
the purchase of a flat plus
an additional IL 30,000 if the
flat is in a development
area.
The returnees would also
be entitled to a year of free
hospitalization and one year
of free high school educa-
tion for their children.

Biologists Are In
JERUSALEM (JTA )-
For the Jewish parent who
always wanted the son to be
a doctor, that profession is
out in Israel. Being a biolo-
gist is very definitely in.
According to a survey
published by the Hebrew
University's sociology de-
partment after biologists in
prestige are dentists, law-
yers, judges, mayors and
physicists. Journalists were
down toward the bottom be-
hind army colonels, rabbis
and writers. Fishermen,
road pavers and shoeshiners
were at the bottom of the
list.
