THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS New Weizmann Institute Chair for Mathematician REHOVOT — Prof. Achiezer Brandt, a math- ematician who has helped Israeli industrialists and farmers take advantage of modern mathematical planning methods, has been chosen for the Elaine and Bram Goldsmith Chair in Applied Mathematics at the Weizmann Institute of Sci- ence. The chair was created by Bram Goldsmith, a Los Angeles banker. Prof. Brandt is best known for his development of advanced methods for solving partial differential equations, methods that make it possible to predict the behavior of highly com- plex systems. Typical appli- cations of his methods in- clude the calculation of air flow around aerodynamic bodies and the consequent Best wishes for a happy, healthy New Year Best wishes for a happy, healthy New Year Best wishes for a happy, healthy New Year GIZELLA BAKER, Fay, Esther & Annette SHARON, KEN, SCOTT & ERIC CHUPACK MRS.

In addition, Prof. Brandt's work has im- portance in regard to oil field management, the prediction and control of neutron transport in nu- clear reactors, the calcu- lation of wave functions in molecular, atomic and nuclear physics, weather forecasting, the descrip- tion of plasma flows (es- sential for the develop- ment of fusion energy), and the computation of stresses in continuous structures such as boat hulls, tires and airplane bodies. Prof. Brandt joined the institute's scientific staff in 1969 and from 1973 to 1975 headed the Department of Pure Mathematics. From 1978 until recently he headed the Department of Applied Mathematics. YIVO Is Busy NEW YORK — While the use of Yiddish in day-to-day life has declined drastically since the language's flourishing in the early 20th Century, YIVO, the re- pository offiddish cultural, social and religious life re- mains. Founded in Vilna, Poland in 1925, the organization moved to New York in 1940, and today has more than two million items in its arc- hives, along with a library with over 300,000 books. The recent documentary, "Image Before My Eyes," was a result of a photo exhibition of the same name,- originally conceived by YIVO and based on its archival materials.

The above statement was made by Hanni Hassan, political adviser to Yasir Arafat, at a January 1982 rally organized by students at American University in Beirut marking the 17th anniversary of Fatah ac- tivity.
