over the streets with their bicy-
cles. Their shouts and laughter
were the only loud noises of the
day. Adults strolled in the mid-
dle of the street, talking quiet-
ly. Ordinarily, Tel Avivians are
in a rush and a rage; they don't
do anything quietly. On Yom
Kippur, they calm down and in-
stinctively keep their voices low.
And the sound of the waves and
the birds and the kids' laughter
is distinct.
Thousands of people were on
the beach, but even here they
were subdued, without the man-
ic, sun 'n' fun energy they usu-
ally bring to a day's outing at the
sea. People all over the city were
walking slower. Religious or sec-
ular, it was easy to fall into a
contemplative mood. Once
again, Yom Kippur was Tel
Aviv's best day of the year. ❑

Despite the visible and audi-
ble shifts in style brought on by
the Sephardi religious revival,
and by the force of money, this
Yom Kippur passed largely as
the previous ones did. Its most
striking characteristic was the
utterly uncharacteristic quiet.
With an hour or so to go be-
fore the start of the holiday, cars
were racing down the streets for
home. No one drives in Tel Aviv
— or any other city in Israel —
on Yom Kippur.
As soon as the holiday began,
I heard a sound I hear only one
day a year — waves breaking on
the shore. On every other day,
this is inaudible due to the ca-
cophonous traffic and the gen-
eral noisiness of Israelis going
about business or leisure.
On the night of Yom Kippur,
the neighborhood children took

f Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu keeps his promise
to the Yisrael B'aliya party,
Natan Sharansky's Russian
immigrant group, the Israeli
press will be forbidden from
mentioning the native land of a
person charged with a crime.
This was a precondition to the
party's joining Mr. Netanyahu's
government, and it is impa-
tiently waiting for him to intro-
duce the necessary legislation.
The reason for Yisrael
B'Aliya's demand is clear: For
some years now, the local press
has been filled with stories high-
lighting that various criminals,
prostitutes and other unsavory
characters were newcomers
from the former Soviet Union.
This gave the totally unwar-
ranted impression that most
Russian immigrants are crooks.
In fact, they are more law-abid-
ing, on the average, than other
Israelis.
While the popular columnist
Nahum Barnea understands
why the Russian newcomers are
making the demand, he doubts
the wisdom of such legislation.
"Even in Russia," he declares,
"they learned that problems of

this sort can't be solved by legal
edicts."
Mr. Barnea's remarks ap-
peared in a new bimonthly jour-
nalism review, Haayin Hashviit,
which, in the same issue, dis-
cusses other examples of media
coverage that angers a partic-
ular section of the population.
The Orthodox, for example,
don't like the way they are por-
trayed in the secular press,
where the term black (relating
to their garb but also, of course,
having other implications) is
used repeatedly. In Ha'aretz one
reads about "black religious co-
ercion," "black crows," and "the
black clerical forces of Meah
She'arim".
In contrast, their secular op-
ponents are described as "sane."
So the newspaper Kol Yerusha-
layim observed that "Emek Re-
faim has become one of the most
secular and sanest streets in
Jerusalem."
Also cited in the magazine
are examples of how the Ortho-
dox press describes secularists.
One publication, Hamishpacha,
wrote: "A special law should be
passed to permit the trial of kib-
butzniks and their helpers in
