JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Cultural events took prece-
dence over military panoply
as Israel celebrated the 30th
anniversary of its indepen-
dence last week. A high-
light was the concert in the
Jerusalem Theater by the
world famous Russian cel-
list Mstislav Rostropovich
who performed with the
Jerusalem Symphony Or-
chestra under the baton of
Gary Bartini.
The main event in Tel.
Aviv was also musical. An
estimated 80,000 pgrsons
heard the Israel Philhar-
monic Orchestra under
Zubin Mehta perform
Tchaikowsky's 1812 Over-
ture, complete with cannon
sound-effects and fireworks.
Other festivities included
a two-hour dress parade and
precision drill by Israel
army units and former un-
derground fighters in the
Hebrew University stadium
while Air Force planes per-
formed acrobatics overhead.
While organized events
attracted thousands of
spectators, most Israelis
took to the beaches or
countryside for the day
and many others stayed
home to-watch Indepen-
dence Day programs on
television.
In Haifa, tens of
thousands watched a
parade of some 5000 dan-

cers from various youth
movements, kibutzim,
moshavim and minority
groups. In Metullah, many
of the south Lebanese
Christians took part in In-
dependence Day celebra-
tions there.
The Israelis had stiff
security precautions in ef-
fect for the celebration, and
arrested four Arab youths
for possession of explosives.
One of the youths was
caught in the act of stuffing
match heads into a pipe to
produce a pipebomb.
Meanwhile, the Israel
Foreign Ministry sus-
pended publication of the
anniversary issue of its own
magazine, "Ariel," because
a poem included in the issue
was deemed subversive.
In New York, celebra-
tions continued with the
American Zionist Feder-
ation's annual event in
Central Park's Delacort
Theater.
Some 18,000 persons
attended a rally in
Montreal, at the Forum,
which was addressed by
Canadian Prime Minister
Elliott Trudeau. Some 3,000
attended a Melbourne, Au-
stralia, rally addressed by
Prime Minister Malcolm
Fraser.
Diplomats and dig-
nitaries attended an Israeli
reception at the United Na-
tions in honor of Israel's an-
niversary, and there were
extensive celebrations in
Brazil and other Latin
American countries.
Philadelphia broadcast
its own salute to Israel on a
61/2-hour television program
which featured live and
taped entertainment and
panel discussions about Is-
raeli life.

Lag b'Omer
By HERZL B. SHUR
It was customary
In the days of old,
To bring an omer of grain
Into the Temple's fold.
Giving a measure of grain
As an offering to God,
Was the joy of each Israelite,
Who worked the sod.
Kindliness and generosity
Generated from this deed,
And the cares of the needy,
Were handled with
Godspeed.
From the second day of
Pesach to the first day of
Shavuot
Did this counting of the
Omer lass,
And for each day of giving,
Each Israelite was blessed.
