TRAVEL When you think of Scandanavia Continued from Page 55 anti-Jewish acts of the Nazis. Norwegian Resistance fighters were daring in their efforts to organize an escape for more than 900 of Norway's Jews, helping them to get across the guarded frontier to safety in Sweden. The city honors this heroism in a museum devoted to the Resistance. The modern brick building on the grounds of the 14th-century Akershus Castle, not far from the city hall, opened in 1970 on the 25th anniversary of the liberation. The modest looking ex- terior of the Resistance Museum hardly prepares the visitor for the dramatic displays inside. The carefully detailed ex- hibits cover the years of oc- cupation, from the day the Nazis attacked Norway, April 9, 1940, to the liberation in 1945, and they show how the Norwegians, staunch and fierce, built one of the most ef- fective Resistance movements in Europe. The display covers key events in the Resistance ef- fort: the secret overnight escape of Norway's king, who fled by boat to England; the daring exploits of the youth of Finnmark in the north of Norway, who escaped by boat to the former Soviet Union and trained as saboteurs in sub-zero temperature; and the 80 fighters who hid in eight huts in the forest and manag- ed to fight until the liberation on May 4, 1945. A section devoted to Nor- way's Jews includes grim Young Adults Set Mission Meeting Reservations are being taken for an information meeting for the fall Chazak mission 7:30 p.m. July 7 at the Max M.

There's also a crumpled striped prison camp uniform and one vivid photo of a frightened child, his hands held above his head as a Nazi officer points a gun at his back. But besides the tragedy, there is also the bravery, the spirited opposition to oppres- sion which is a dominant theme. It's an appropriate theme for a country with a tradition of strong and proud independence. ❑ "..1 NEWS tm"m".. Israeli Police Detain Marchers Imm Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israeli officials are pondering what to do with over 100 peace marchers, most of them for- eign, who were detained for disobeying police orders. Right-wing politicians are demanding their immediate expulsion from the country. More likely, the duration of their visitors visas will be reduced. The police jailed 115 dem- onstrators, some of them Israelis but the rest visitors from about 20 countries. They came to Israel to hold a peace march through the West Bank on the 25th an- niversary of the Six-Day War in which that territory was captured by Israel. The authorities say they were brought here by the Hadash Communist Party, allegedly with funds provid- ed by the Palestine Libera- tion Organization and left- wing pro-PLO groups abroad. The visitors joined some 200 Israeli peace marchers who set off from Megiddo for the Arab town of Jenin in the West Bank. But at the Green Line, Israel's pre-1967 border, their way was barred by police, who told them the Jenin region was a "closed military area." They were ordered to disperse. The demonstrators refused to move, however, blocking the main road, and were ar- rested. According to Kathy Kelly, coordinator of the U.S. con- tingent, "those who were ar- rested acted as they did be- cause they believed it was crucial to walk, to cross over to where the Palestinians live and to hear what their needs and concerns are liv- ing under occupation."
