Mrs. Girion's descriptions of Jewish observances are spontaneous, portrayed with warmth. Moving is the author's description of Beth's mother's sudden death. After the funeral, Beth ripped the plants out of the pots one by one ... "I yanked the tops and there were holes in the dirt and the plants lay naked, their fragile white-brown roots ex- posed. I think I would have pulled out every plant in that room. My dead mother's living plants so neatly growing in the kitchen."

Information Team Names New Leader JERUSALEM (JTA) — Meir de Shalit, a leading tourism entrepreneur, has been asked by Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan to head the overseas informa- tion advisory committee at- tached to the ministry. De Shalit will replace veteran diplomat Ehud Av- riel who recently suffered a heart attack and asked to be relieved of the post. De Shalit is a former di- rector general of the Minis- try of Tourism (which is now part of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry). He is a leading figure in Yigael Yadin's Democratic Movement. The advisory committee comprises mainly informa- tion and communications experts. It meets regularly and studies ways to improve Israeli propaganda abroad, making its proposals to the Foreign Minister and his in- formation aide, Moshe Arad.
