Saturday, February 3, 1968 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Pfl3 3 S&mdeimi ummer n Hi 1 1 hrvQ u llm TTfT By EUGENE SAItVEIt Special To The Daily Tar Heel Having planned to tour Israel and to work on a kibbutz curing the summer, I had booked q flight to Td Aviv in the early spring. When the Eygptian closing of the Straits of Tiran and the related mobilization of the Israeli army later created an urgent need for volunteers, my proposed trip took on new dim nesions. After the Israeli Air Force destroyed its Egyptian counterpart during the early hours of June 5th and armored Israeli columns started moving into the Sinai Desert, I called El Al to confirm my flight, but its jets were being used, with their scats removed, to ferry ammunition from Belgium and Holland. Furthermore, our State Department had imposed a travel ban. Finally I got on a July 5th flight, just days after ' the ban was lifted. Within minutes of leaving Kennedy Airport, our filled-to-capacity Doing 707 jet was winging its way to Israel at 650 miles per hour. Instructions to "fasten seatbelts" etc. were first given- Hebrew, the language of ancient and modern Israel, before a trans lation was made imto English. Just a few hours after sup per our plane, flying eastward at 30,000 feet, was in broad daylight; below us cloud formations that looked like the Arctic wastes (hid the Atlantic FOUND Seiko man's wristwatch around exams on Spencer Dorm lawn.

Il RSERTEA - fLL TEACH VER T' STAV OUT ARF THE NIGHT Ocean On the bus from the airport to Tel Aviv ("Hill of Spring") I cat next to a Yemanite Jew. Suddenly he pointed at the sky as the entire Israeli Air Force flew over us, led by an "Israeli" Mig 21, the one that had been flown to Israel several months before by a deserting Iraqui pilot. It had huge 007 markings the Borscht Belt com mediennes had their match. It was Air Force Day and as was traditional the air force was flying over the entire country about the size of Vermont. The bus station in Tel Aviv was in the center of the bustl ing business district. Walking through a few blocks of it I could make out conversations in Hebrew, Yiddish, French, English, Spanish, Hungarian, Rumanian and Arabic. Israel in its own way is a melting pot. With all signs in English as well as in Hebrew and with the famed helpfulness of the Israelis, I had no trouble fin ding my way. Interestingly enough, several of the better stores had "Diners 01 u b " stickers. Finally, I found the bus to Ramat-Gan, a suburb of Tel Aviv, where lived the family of a friend who was studying in America but who was home now to do summer military du ty before returning to the , university.

As soon as we arrivd at the center of the street, we ran in to a coed groups cf seven English and Canadian volun teers from a kibbutz near the Gaza Strip, and with our new found friends, we promptly relocated into one of Dizen goff's dark and comfortable "lounges" where we downed fine Israeli beer and highballs and sang English, Hebrew and French folk songs, ac companied by a guitar. Israel is a small country and in the ensuing weeks I ran into these friends several times. I spent the following day walking through Tel Aviv, a busy city of over 600,000 peo ple, wnich has a lovely beach adorned with Hilton and Sheraton Hotels, a skyscraper City Hall and a traffic problem which rivals New York's. Re cent additions to the traffic were captured Russian jeeps bearing the Hebrew inscription "From Russia, with love, (signed) Kosygin." Having seen Tel Avia, I was eager to go to the kibbutz I had chosen, Kfar Blum (Blum Town) in the northeast corner of Israel, three miles from the former Syrian border. It is one of Israel's over 200 kibbutzim or farms, characterized by collective ownership of all property ex cept personal items, communal dining and communal rearing of children by age groups.

Last summer San er, a $ native of Mt. Vernon, N.Y., volunteered to go to S g Israel to work on a kibbutz, a Palestinean col- :g lectivefarm. Sarver arrived in Israel right after the "end" 8 of the Arab-Israeli war, and received an inside S look at an optimistic nation on the aftermath of 3 war. M members over 21, and a total population of 750, including children, foreign volunteers and soldiers (men and women fulfilling part of their military obligation by working on a kib butz), is of average size.

In the ensuing weeks I learned to appreciate the fan tastic effort and sacrifice which had gone into converting this former malarial swamp into a veritable Garden of Eden. Its lovely building area was complemented by hundreds of carefully tended" acres of cot ton, wheat, vegetables, fruit orchards and pasture for the dairy herd. In addition, there was a small factory for mak ing electrical panals, giving employment to the older peo ple and those with scientific in-' terests. 1 lived in comfortable volunteers' housing with two people to a room. My fellow volunteers were a group of guys and girls from such scat tered places as England, South Africa, Denmark, New ealand, Niger and the Congo. Sweden, Japan and Canada, as well as the Isareli cities of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa. Surprisingly the largest group (20) was from Japan, which the Israeli kibbutzniks said was the only group who could outwork them.

In the evening a light supper was served, followed by a movie (two to three nights a week) singing and frequent bull sessions. By working on the kibbutz, I was given a special card which entitled me to free room and board at every other kibbutz in Israel. One place I used it was S'dat Yom, kibbutz next to Caesarea, the ruins of the Roman capital of Israel. It had an especially large contingent of Argentine and Mexican Jewish volunteers, so I had the opportunity of using mv knowledge of Spanish. For a glorious ending tn my visit to Israel, I spent a week in Jerusalem. Sandbags were grim reminders of the war but the city itself was busy and . joyful. I ran into one of my English friends who has joined the Israeli army which was taking short-term volunteers. His job was collecting aban doned Arab military equipment in the West Bank (Jordan) area, and although he put in a hard seven day week the job had such compensating features as being allowed to keep a wide variety o f souveniers.

At the discoteque I ran into one of the U.S. Marine Guards for the VS. Consulate in "Israeli Jerusalem" who in formed me, between generous -chugs of cold beer, that the Jordanians had hit our "Israeli Jersualem" Consulate and the Israelis had bit our "Jordanian Jerusalem" Consulate so there were no hard feelings. At the end of my visit to Israel I went back to laid Airport for my flight via Greece to home. With pleasant memories of kibbutz life, the Wailing Wall and dlscoteques, I found myself humming "Jersualem of Gold." like the thousands of other volunteers I had given a lot to Israel, but Israel had given far more to me.
