Police stepped in to avert whai looked like a sure-fire riot. The police ordered Rockwell to turn off his loudspeaker system and leave the area. The inflamed crowd was then dispersed. AS PART of their protests, individuals in the crowd sang “God Bless America,” while others stood in front of the platform and sang “Hatikva” in defiance of Rockwell’s “storm troopers.”

An Israeli’s Idea of a Vacation Is to Take a Good Long Walk

JERUSALEM (P-O) — An Israeli’s idea of a great vacation is to take a good long walk. The long Passover school vacation kicks-off the annual phenomena of tens of thousands of teen agers hitting the trail in the Galilee mountains and the Negev desert. And the coming of spring also brings an epidemic of their eld ers getting the bug to hit the road. THE ROADS of the Negev are packed with hikers headed for Massada, which towers over the Dead Sea. Massada was the scene

of a gallant fight against the Romans by a small group of Jewish rebels who wouldn’t give up after the Bar Kochba revolt was crushed in 56 A.D Every year at this time the national mama over hiking comes to a head with the “Za’ada”—the march. For six years the rugged Za’ada has drawn thousands of participants. Sponsored by the Army, a cross-section of Israel puts in 25 miles a day in the grueling four-day test. And strangely enough, thousands look forward to it every year. THE MARCHERS themselves get nothing out of it except the sheer joy of hiking and a medal for everyone who finishes. A 93-year-old grey-beard named Yosef Doron who hiked in this year’s race complained that 25 miles a day was not arduous enough and that the pace was too leisurely.

SCROLLS ARE awarded for the best marching. Civilian groups representing banks, bus companies and other businesses fiercely compete among themselves for the scrolls Some civil •ian groups even practice foi weeks before the official march begins. And of course Army units compete in a separate division since they are in better physical shape than the civilians. The march is not a race but rather the hikers are judged on the basis of their appearance and marching spirit. Youngsters below 18 and those over 45 only march for two days But everyone ends up in Jerusalem and it is a stirring sight to see the groups come in still marching smartly after the gruej mg test and spiritly singing Israeli folk songs.
