) thousands of Russian im-
migrants are not of the
Jewish faith but have been
accepted here as members of
family units. They are not
eligible for burial in Jewish
cemeteries when they die.
Operators of cemeteries of
various Christian faiths com-
plain that all cemetery space
available to them would soon
be occupied if they accepted
these additional bodies, upon
death. Solution: The director
of the Department of Chris-
tian sects in the Ministry of
Religion reports that a new
and large cemetery for non-
Jews is to be opened in the
-: south of the country.
Fooling the Peaches.
Everyone is familiar with the
Israeli trick of keeping the
lights burning all night long
in the chicken houses so the
chicks will think it's daytime
and keep laying eggs. Now
the farmers have learned to
fool the peach trees as well.
The colder the winter, the bet-
ter and the quicker the ripen-
ing of peaches. The Volcani
Institute has developed a

system of raising peach trees
in plastic containers, putting
them in intense refrigeration
for two weeks and then set-
ting them outdoors. The
result has been earlier ripen-
ing of the fruit at a time when
no other peaches are
available in European
markets.
More Prophetic Than They
Thought? Shalom Rosenfeld,
in Maariv, marvels at the
foresight of the planners who
designed Israel's pavilion at
Expo 92 in Spain in the shape
of a tent. Surely, he writes,
this is a daring leap into the
22nd century, the post-
nuclear era.
When Israel Was a Guinea
Pig. The Salk vaccine was not
wholly effective in controlling
the polio epidemic in Israel in
1961. The Sabin oral vaccine
was still undergoing clinical
trials and had not yet been
approved by the U.S.
authorities for export.
Because it could classify
Israel as a "clinical trial," the
manufacturer, Wyeth, ship-
ped 2 million doses to Israel.
"Every child in Israel was
vaccinated within two weeks
and the epidemic stopped,"
Professor Benjamin A. Rubin
of Philadelphia revealed to
The Jerusalem Report. It pro-
ved that the vaccine worked,
and American approval came
soon thereafter.
