Soviets Jail Kalendarov, Three
Jews Sentenced for Bar Fight
NEW YORK (JTA) —
Boris- Kalendarov, a 21-
year-old Leningrad student
refusnik and an unofficial
Hebrew teacher, was sen-
tenced to two years' impris-
onment in an eight-hour
trial for alleged "draft eva-
sion," the Student Struggle
for Soviet Jewry (SSSJ)
learned.
As distinguished from
ials of many other Jewish
activists, the court was
packed with refusniks. A
representative from the
American Consulate in
Leningrad was ejected, but
a lawyer from London was
allowed to remain.
Two defense witnesses
were permitted, Boris and
his mother Evgenia. Pros-
ecution witnesses were
members of the police and
military, the SSSJ reported.
Kalendarov and his
parents applied for exit
visas to Israel in 1973,
and were refused be-
cause of his engineer
mother's alleged "state
secrets." Kalendarov's
sister Mila, however, was
permitted to emigrate.
Kalendarov was in hid-
ing about a year before
his March 8 arrest.
Meanwhile, three Molda-
vian Jewish refusniks ar-
rested Jan. 5 in a Beltsy cafe
for brawling with anti-
Semitic thugs have received
harsh prison sentences for
their part in the melee, ac-
cording to the National
Conference on Soviet Jewry
(NCSJ). The seven hooli-
gans who provoked the inci-
dent were never arrested.
Aleksandr Milner has
been sentenced to six years
in prison, while Arkady
Feldman and Yankel
Groberman each received
four-year terms. Their trial
was April 13. An uniden-
tified non-Jew who came to
their defense during the
fight was arrested with
them drew an even longer,
although unknown sen-
tence, the NCSJ reported.
Groberman, who was re-
leased from custody prior to
the April 13 trial and was to
be a material witness, actu-
ally appeared as one of the
accused. His parents, wife
and children, and Milner's
father all live in Israel.
Groberman's exit applica-
tion had been denied on the
grounds that he holds state
secrets as a result of his
army service.
In Washington, the
Carter Administration
was seen as moving
closer towards granting
U.S. government trade
benefits to the Soviet
Union by seeking a
waiver from Congress
under the Jackson-Vanik
Amendment. But no offi-
cial decision on the exact
process is ready for pub-
lic discussion.
At the State Department,
chief spokesman Hodding
Carter said that President
Carter "has noted we have
been • discussing pos-
sibilities in this area both
with the Congress and with
the Soviets. A decision on
how we will proceed has not
been finally taken."
The rate of Soviet Jewish
emigration during the past
four months would amount
to about 50,000 a year. At
the time the J-V Amend-
ment was adopted, the
minimum goal of emigra-
tion was set at about 60,000
annually. In the past few
weeks, it is understood that
a formula for working out a
waiver has been discussed
between Secretary of State
Cyrus Vance and Soviet
Ambassador Anatoly Dob-
rynin.
The J-V Amendment
calls for the President to
certify assurances from
the Soviet government on
Soviet policy regarding
emigration.
There is little sentiment
in the Congress for any re-
peal of the Jackson-Vanik
Amendment but a waiver
would enable the Carter

proves, for one year to the

In a related development,
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy
(D-Mass.) participated in
the hooding of Benjamin
Levich, who received an
honorary doctor of science
degree at Boston Univer-
sity's commencement Sun-
day.
Levich was granted per-
mission to emigrate to the
U.S. in 1978 after a direct
appeal by Kennedy.

Novosti Claims
New Synagogues
Are Established
Quoting Novosti, the offi-
cial Soviet news agency, the
Soviet embassy in Wash-
ington informs The Jewish
News that a new synagogue
has been established in
Russia.
Novosti claims that the
synagogue is the fourth in
the city of Tashkent, Uz-
bekistan, and that the
synagogue is "particularly
crowded" on "Saturdays and
religious holidays." The
rabbi is quoted as saying,
"We are planning to send
several of our youngsters to
study at the yeshiva at the
Moscow synagogue."
Novosti also claimed,
"The inauguration cere-
mony of one more
synagogue in the regional
center of Fregana was held
the other day."

German-PLO
Prisoner Swap
in the Offing?
BONN (JTA) — The Jus-
tice Ministry has refused to
confirm or deny a report
that the Bonn police are
negotiating with the Pales-
tine Liberation Organiza-
tion to exchange 11 Palesti-
nian terrorists arrested in
West Germany several
weeks ago for four members
of the German Red Army
terrorist group said to be
hiding out in a PLO camp in
a Middle Eastern country.
According to the report,
in the magazine "Quick,"
the PLO proposed the ex-
change and it is presently
being negotiated between
Guenter Ermisch, vice
president of the West Ger-
man Criminal Police, and
Abdallah Franghi, the PLO
representative in Bonn.
Meanwhile, Franghi said
in an interview published in
the West Berlin Berliner
Morgenpost, that he could
not guarantee that Palesti-
nians would not carry out
terrorist attacks in West
Germany. But he insisted
that if they did, it would be
without orders or approval
by the PLO.

Culture Exchange
to Help Yiddish?
NEW YORK — Broad-
way producer Joseph Papp
has proposed taking the
musical "Chorus Line" to
Moscow. In exchange, Papp
has asked Soviet
authorities to develop a new
Yiddish musical theater in
the Soviet Union that could
visit the U.S. in two years.
Such a group was repor-
tedly formed in the so-called
Jewish Autonomous Region
of Birobidzhan. The region,
set up in the 1930s, contains
only 10,000 of the Soviet
Union's two million Jews,
according to the New York
Times.
