Guest pound of powerful explo- sives, was placed where it "would do most damage," near the back of the crowded hall. Marseilles Mayor Gaston Defferre, who was to ad- dress the meeting, later said the bomb apparently had nothing to do with the forth- coming French municipal elections, in which Defferre is running, and added: "This is an anti-Semitic attack. The bomb was set to explode in the middle of the Jewish Purim festival and hurt as many people as possible." Defferre dismissed police speculation that the bomb was linked either to the forthcoming elections or to Defferre's crackdown on Corsican extremists in his capacity with 18 years new & used car selling experience as Minister of the Inter- Has Joined Their Staff ior. He said "the bomb was obviously aimed at Call him at 453-7500 or 933-2000 or stop in at the city's Jewish com- munity." 40475 Ann Arbor Rd. at 1-275 (exit 28), Plymouth, Michigan SELECTED JEWELRY coliPLETE Fun sLinIcF, searcher.

Ornamental plants from various countries, including Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, are exam- ined in the greenhouse. An abundance of ornamental plants, suitable for growing in Israel, exist in these countries, but their intro- duction could entail the spread of plant disease. To forestall this danger, a period of quarantine is necessary in which the plants undergo tests to ascer- tain that they are free of viral and other diseases. The greenhouse enables the Department of Orna- mental Horticulture to step up the rate of plant intro- duction into Israel, and thereby expand the export potential of ornamental plants from Israel. evacuated while police ex- perts checked the hall and the building from top to bot- torn. The Purim children's evening was organized by the Jewish National Fund and a local Jewish radio sta- tion. No one has claimed re- sponsibility for the attack but police said the explo- sives were of a type similar to those used by Corsican extremists. (") Hoffman, Streep, Spielberg Awarded Golden Globes By HERBERT LUFT (Copyright 1983, JTA, Inc.) HOLLYWOOD — "Sophie's Choice" was neither the choice of the Los Angeles Film Critics Asso- ciation nor of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's Golden Globes (Jan. 29) though Meryl Streep, who starred in the film, won the Best Actress Award from both organizations. Based on the novel by William Styron, the Alan J. Pakula film is a romantic, embroidered story dealing with a Polish woman who survived the Auschwitz ex- termination camp by assur- ing the Nazis that she hated the Jews and was a good Catholic. But as movie material it is in dubious taste to hear the heroine cursing the Jews when talk- ing to one of the most heni- ous mass murderer, Au- schwitz commander Rudolf Hoess, who later was hanged by the Russians. * * * Reinhold Schuenzel, the actor/director in pre-Hitler Germany made the origi- nal, "Victor and Victoria," in the early 1930s. He later fled to America and died in Hollywood, while Renate Mueller, who then por- trayed the double role, be- came a victim of Nazism. * * * DIRECTOR William Friedkin paid tribute to the late George Cukor who died at the age of 83 after a career of 50 years in the cinema: His last picture was MGM's "Rich and Famous." made in 1981. Survey Lists Jewish Priorities NEW YORK — A survey of key New York Jewish leaders by an independent communications consulting agency has disclosed that "Jewish education," "strengthening Jewish identity" and "combating anti-Semitism" are re- garded as the key domestic concerns affecting the North American Jewish community. - At the same time, "peace in the Middle East" and a "strong Israel" were listed as the chief matters on the international scene affect- ing the welfare of Jews. The survey was con- ducted by Paul Kresh Communications at the re- quest of several Jewish community clients, includ- ing JWB. The survey, which was mailed to 110 major lay leaders in Metropolitan New York, was con- ducted from October to December of last year. It included 16 multi-part questions ranging from organizational affilia- tions to children's in- volvement in Jewish ac- tivities. The survey also revealed that more than 90 percent of the respondents believed that "concerns and ties with other Jews" was "extremely important" or "very impor- tant" in defining what it means to be a Jew. Next in importance was "a way of life" followed by "custom and traditions" and then "religious beliefs." STEVEN SPIELBERG won the Best Director Award from the L.A. Film critics and the foreign press gave Spielberg's "E.T." two Golden Globes, one for best drama; another one for the musical score by John Williams. * * * INGRID BERGMAN was posthumously awarded a Golden Globe for her per- formance in the television movie "A Woman Called Golda." * * * DUSTIN HOFFMAN was recognized by the foreign press as best actor in a comedy. His "Tootsie" was named top comedy and was hailed by Laurence Olivier whom Hoffman presented with the DeMille Award. * * * LIONEL STANDER, who spent many years in Europe after the black- listing during the McCar- thy era, was officially wel- comed back into the Hol- lywood fold when presented with a Golden Globe for his performance as the sidekick of Robert Wagner in the long-running TV series, "Hart to Hart." * * * DURING the press asso- ciation's award banquet, one Golden Globe went to Julie Ability will see the Andrews, for her portrayal chance and snatch it.
