spite a drumfire of appeals
and criticism from Jewish
students, Jewish faculty

scheduled for the second day
of Shavuot, June 7.

dent at the Harvard Law
School who is chairman of
the Harvard University
Student Committee on
Commencement, brought to
the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, during a brief visit
to the city, a wide variety of
documents describing both
the requests and the refus-
als.
Strauss told the JTA that
foes of the Shavuot schedul-
ing had refused to end their
fight to change the date.
ple Israel will be joined by
an American Zionist Youth
Foundation representative
to discuss youth travel and
study programs and schol-
arships.
A special awards cere-
mony will recognize De-
troiters who are making
aliya. Informational and
educational booths will be
set up to provide materials
on a wide range of topics.
Israeli food will be avail-
able throughout the after-
noon.

ing committee making
arrangements for the
