Syria, Iraq Joining Forces

LISTENING
POST

AMONG THE NICEST
people I know is Father
William Cunningham, head
of Focus: HOPE . . . a real
down-to-earth guy whose
only interest in life is help-
ing others.
I join many so happy that
he will be honored, along
with Leonard Trunsky, to-
night, by Temple Israel men
at their first Brotherhood
Sabbath .-. . with services
completely performed by
the Brotherhood.
Rabbi M. Robert Syme of
Temple Israel himself has
been a leader in helping
others so it is most fitting
that his devoted congrega-
tion be instrumental in
honoring Fr. Cunningham.
Recently, though,
Rabbi Syme finally
realized what it's like to
attend a convention
without having his own
identity . . . Wife Sonia is
on the board at Botsford
Hospital ... and both
attended a national con-
vention in San Antonio
with the roles reversed
... and he being known
only as Sonia Syme's
husband.
Gerson Cooper, member
of Temple Israel, is the
newly elected national
president of osteopathic
hospitals in the U.S.
JERRY ARONSON, son
of Lea Aronson, has been
nominated for an Academy
Award . . . Category is best
short documentary subject,
titled, "The Divider Trail —
A Native American Odys-
sey" . . . Jerry graduated
Mumford High and Wayne
State U.

tation, Fla., Al and Annette

CYNTHIA_ RAIM,
who'll concertize April 1 for

COLLIN, MERENOFF,

Meriam and Dr. Henry
MargOlis, was having her
remove a slight wax deposit
from his ears . . . and said,
"Grandma, please, clean
only one of my ears so that
Grandpa's words will stay
in. He says that they go into
one and out through the
other."

TEL AVIV (JTA) — Is-
raeli military circles have
warned against a new
threat on the eastern front,
once an Israeli-Egyptian
peace treaty is signed, that
may explode into hostilities
involving the. combined
forces of Syria and Iraq.
Reports from various
Arab capitals indicated that
those countries are pooling
their military strength on a
large scale.
were
Tensions -
heightened by Palestine
Liberation Organization
leader Yasir Arafat's warn-
ing in Amman that "the
whole Middle East will
explode if Sadat signs the
pact" with Israel and his
thinly -veiled assassination
threat against Egyptian
President Anwar Sadat.
The Syrian govern-
ment's official news-
paper, Tishrin, warned
that a peace treaty be-
tween Israel and Egypt
would leave no choice
but war to the confronta- .
tion states, Syria and
Iraq. The Kuwaiti daily,
Al-Siyassa, reported that
three Iraqi divisions have
entered Syria in the past
few days under their re-
cent agreement to estab-
lish a joint military com-
mand.
Israeli military circles
claimed that Iraq and Syria

are secretly speeding up
their agreement to counter
a peace treaty. According to
the Israelis, the agreement
calls for Iraqi units to be
stationed in Syria in sup-
port of Syrian forces facing
Israel.
Arafat met with King
Hussein of Jordan at the
Mafraq air base to discuss
possible action against the
peace treaty.
Meanwhile, a U.S.
delegation headed by
President Carter's Na-
tional Security Adviser
Zbigniew Brzezinski was
in Amman for meetings
with Hussein. The dele-
gation was in Riyadh,
Saudi Arabia, to meet
with King Khaled.
The purpose apparently
was to convince the Saudis
and Jordanians to take no
overt action against the
Israeli-Egyptian peace
treaty if they continue to
boycott the peace process it-
self.
