SESSION I JUNE 17-JULY 19 SESSION II JULY 22-AUGUST 23 a Special to The Jewish News Sports are not among the ta- lents Jewish leaders are tradi- _ n for. President tionally know Herzog has shattered this stereotype by engaging in parasailing and golf, almost "exo- tic" sports by Israeli standards. The adventurous 66-year-old president was recently seen soar- ing over the Red Sea tied to a bright parachute — quite a change from the kind of flying he was accustomed to during his Is- raeli- Air Force career. Herzog, an expert in sailing, completed his Eilat vacation mak- ing good time on a trip with the local yacht club. He is a regular at the Caesarea Golf Club, plays tennis and squash, and as a child, played rugby in Ireland and even won some boxing trophies. If you are not into parasailing and are wondering what you could do when you reach the president's age, Israel can use your help. About 100 retired Americans just completed three months in Israel as volunteers in hospitals, army camps and youth organizations. Many of them hope to repeat the experience next year, while the same program will soon bring 1,000 more enthusiastic Ameri- cans to Israel. More American aid to Israel was performed on a very personal level by American sailors. You can often spot their uniforms on Haifa streets, but this time they worked hard on their shore leave. The captain of the USS Sampson found out about a Haifa family whose apartment was flooded be- cause of damaged plumbing. The local authorities could not decide who was responsible for repairing it and the widowed mother and seven children had no home. On the captain's suggestion 15 officers and crewmen went to the apartment with proper tools, pumped water, repaired the pipes and painted the walls and door. A Summer Camp for Mentally & Physically Impaired Israel's failing economy can be oc- casionally tempered through humor and creativity. While the economy is all packaged up, it is clear that Package Deal II is not doing as much as its predecessor did to curb inflation. At a recent Purim party at the home of U.S. Ambassador Samuel Lewis, the president of the Israel Manufacturers' Association and his wife appeared dressed up as package deals I and II, with II showing much evidence of weak- ness and injuries. Chaim Herzog: Golf and parasailing They even sent the laundry back to the Sampson to be washed. The large family returned to find their apartment magically trans- formed and ready to live in. A new business venture will cater to tourists who have been to Israel before, but want to know "more." Diplomatic Services promises tourists unique sights and insights usually reserved only for foreign diplomats and other VIPs. The new company will be led by a former escort for the Government Press Office, who will now use his expertise on a commercial basis. Entrepreneurs do not stop at the border — as was recently re- vealed by Plassim, an irrigation plant in Kibbutz Merhavia. The company designed and sold an ir- rigation system to King Hussein's uncle in 1975. As the pipes crossed a Jordan River bridge on their way to Nasser's Ranch, Plassim was paid $36,000 through a mid- dleman. In Jordan, Nasser, the King's uncle, explained that the irrigation system was bought from West Bank Arabs. Even serious challenges such as Peres Favors `Star Wars' Jerusalem (JTA) — Premier Shimon Peres said Monday that he personally was "unequivocally in favor" of a positive response to the Reagan Administration's in- vitation to Israel to participate in research for the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), popularly known as "Star Wars." Peres told the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Security Committee that the SDI program signified a scientific revolution and it was clearly in Israel's interest to be involved in the technology from the outset. Peres' remarks to the Knesset committee did not constitute a formal reply to the invitation U.S. Defense Secretary Caspar Wein- berger extended to Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin in Wash- ington last month. The formal re- sponse is still being drafted by Is- raeli experts and must be ap- proved by the Cabinet before it is conveyed to Washington. But given the enthusiasm of Peres and Rabin for the project, there seems little doubt that Is- rael will accept the invitation, which was also extended to America's NATO allies, Japan and Australia. 2, 3, 4, 5-day programs available for children ages 2 1/2 thru 9.
