Bethlehem Rites Attract 30,000 JERUSALEM (JTA) — Some 30,000 people partici- pated in Christmas fes- tivities in Bethlehem. A select audience of some 1,000 people attended the midnight mass at the St. Catherine Church last week while outside in Manger Square a giant television screen provided several thousand other pilgrims with a view of the church service. Israel TV broadcast the ceremony live to about * 30 countries. Bethlehem Mayor Elias Freij rejected pressure by Arab' extremists to cancel the traditional Christmas eve reception and limit the festivities to protest against Israeli measures on the West Bank. Local residents said sec- urity measures were unpre- cedented. Israeli troops pat- rolled the town's back streets and watched crowds from rooftops overlooking the square. Persons enter- ing the square were searched and police sealed off the entire area.

FRUIT BASKET Sr • . JEWISH NATIONAL FUND TRENTON, N.J. (JTA) — The seven-member New Jersey State Supreme Court ruled unanimously last week that a ban on extra- curricular activities by a public school board on Jewish and Christian Sab- baths, to accommodate the religious needs of students, was not _an unconstitutional accommodation of religion. The court affirmed,-with- out opinion, an earlier rul- ing of a three judge panel of the State Appellate Divi- sion which had upheld as constitutional such a ban by a Teaneck high school. The Teaneck Board of Education adopted on March 9, 1977, a policy which banned scheduling of extra- curricular student ac- tivities on Friday nights, Saturdays or Sunday morn- ings.
