HAVE YOU HEARD

the rabbi and exclaims,
"What's the matter with
you? Why are you teaching
my son the Kadish? I'm
only 32 years old!" ... The
rabbi replies, "Don't worry
—by the time he learns how
to recite it you'll be a very
-old man."
LOOKING BACK On
Columns Of Yesteryears...
MAY 5, 1961 . . . "Toward
the end of last summer, Leo
Kaplan broke his elbow
while playing softball at the
Bert School field and wore a
cast for six weeks This
year, wife Shirley warned
him not to play any ball yet,
and even Dr. Harold Gehr-
ing told him to take it very
easy ... The first game of
the season came and Leo,
sneaking out of the house
without Shirley knowing it,
was back at his shortstop
position at the same Bert
Field ...
The first ball pitched
came straight at Leo ... He
stuck out his bare hand and,
you guessed it, Leo's back in
a cast again, only this time
he starts the season with it
on.
AJC Director
Condemns UN
NEW YORK — Sidney
Liskofsky, director of the
American Jewish Commit-
tee's division of interna-
tional organizations and a
program consultant to the
Jacob Blaustein Institute
for Human Rights, has con-
demned the failure ofa_he
United Nations to pass a
proposed declaration
against religious discrimi-
nation and intolerance. The
proposal has been under
consideration for the past 20
years. Liskofsky issued his
statement at a recent UN-
ESCO sponsored conference
in Bangkok, Thailand.
NEW YORK L.- The
American Jewish Commit-
tee has welcomed the action
of the Alianza Popular
party in Spain, calling for
the establishment of full
diplomatic relations be-
tween Spain and Israel.
Bertram H. Gold, AJ-
Committee executive vice
president, declared that the
establishment of such dip-
lomatic ties would be a
"demonstration of the
Spanish regime's desire to
move toward greater
democracy by normalizing
Spanish ties with the one
true democracy in the Mid-
dle East, Israel."
He added that the crea-
tion of these ties "would be
consonant with the position
of the European Common
Market countries that
Spain hopes to join," and
expressed the hope that the
action of the Alianza Popu-
lar would be emulated by
other parties and groups in
Spain.
Israelis Improve
Living Standard
JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
Despite high inflation, Cen-
tral Bureau of Statistics re-
ports show that the Israeli
standard of living continues
to improve.
Some 15 years ago, only
28 percent of Israelis owned
washing machines. In 1979,
72 percent owned them. In
1969, the percentage of Is-
raelis who owned auto-
mobiles was 7.5 percent.
That figure rose to 33 per-
cent in 1979.
Nearly all homes now
have electric refrigerators
and 90 percent have televi-
sions.
Heart Disease
Leading Factor
JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
The Israel Health Ministry
has released data for the
year 1977 which shows that
heart disease continues to
be the leading cause of
death in Israel.
In 1977, Israel had 6,224
deaths attributed to heart
disease and 4,259 attrib-
uted to cancer.
Other statistics showed
that the overall death rate
for men was 78 per 10,000
compared to 66 per 10,000
for women. There were 145
suicides by men, compared
to 77 for women.
Eitan Criticized
TEL AVIV — The Labor
Party's Yosef Sarid has
asked Chief of Staff Gen.
Rafael Eitan to tone down
his remarks following an
interview in the armed
forces magazine.
Eitan was quoted as say-
ing, "Should the Soviets at-
tack us, our army will lick
them."
Sarid said Israel paid for
its over-confidence in the
1973 Yom Kippur War and
asked Eitan to "drop his
big-mouth policy."
Example is the school of
mankind; they will learn at
no other.
