The Egyptian foreign min- ister said Israel must with- draw before the talks could continue. Taba was awarded to Egypt by international arbitration last year. The bilateral talks that began there on Thursday were called to settle relative- ly minor issues left unresolv- ed by the arbitration process. Yet to be settled is the exact location of 185 yards of border running from Marker 91 on a sand hill to the edge of the sea. Marker 91 is the last border marker set in place under - the arbitration procedure. Other outstanding matters include access to the Avia Sonesta Hotel and the Rafi Nelson Vacation Village, two resorts built by Israelis in Taba some yearS ago. The Israelis would like to retain management of the two facil- ities under Egyptian 'owner- ship. Israel wants its tourists to have free access to Taba, without passports or visas. The Egyptians may be will- ing to grant that right only to day-trippers. In addition, there are ques- tions of policing the region, customs inspection and cur- rency exchange. Bank Leumi Branch Bombed Jerusalem (JTA) — At least two people were injured in scattered incidents in the West Bank and East Jerusalem last week. A Samaritan woman was admitted to Hadassah Uni- versity Hospital in Ein Kerem for treatment of mod- erate burns she received in a firebomb attack on the Nab- lus branch of the Bank Leumi. Several bank employees were injured, none seriously. A border policeman suf- fered a slight neck injury in an encounter with young rock-throwers in Jerusalem's Old City. The youths were dis- persed with tear gas. Vandals defaced a memorial to members of a Hadassah Hospital convoy killed in a 1948 ambush on the Mount Scopus road. The memorial, in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, was quickly repaired. Major Teddy Kollek said he hoped this was the last of such incidents. I OBITUARIES 1 Betty Goldstein Betty A.
