THE SOUTHERN ISRAELITE P»9* Two Friday, Aug. 4, 1972 CARL ALPERT Drama, Humor, Thrills - - fliat’s Israel little lVfe room flat in Beersheba to spend an evening at the movies. The box office could not change their fifty Pound note, so they broke it with the purchase of a lottery ticket at a nearby booth. They enjoyed the movie — and the next day their lottery number brought them IL. 150,000. HAIFA—Israel—a country of history and thrills, drama and humor, excitement and fun — a country of the ever-unexpected. For example, take a look at what has been happening here in recent months, almost as part of the daily routine. Politeness to Tourists: When Hanan Zeitan, an El A1 em ployee, seized the surviving Jap anese terrorist, locked him in a stranglehold and threw him to the ground, Hanan’s training came through, and he politely asked the killer: “Are you a passenger?” He Lacked Party Support: Yosef Nassr e-Din, a Druze res ident of Daliat el-Carmel, wired the recent Zionist Congress ask ing that he be recognized as a delegate bcause of his “com plete identification with Zion ism.” Trade Union Consciousness: Minister of Religions, Zerach Warhaftig, told that in an effort to combat begging at the Wes tern Wall, he offered one of the beggars a weekly payment TOGETHER WE CAN DO MORE! RECIPIENT of the Abba Certificate-Myrtle Wreath Award and Special Israel Recognition Award for the Reuniting of the Gluxman Family. Paid for by the Fowler for Congress, Committee Marvin Botnick, President equal to his “take” if the beggar would stay away. Replied the latter: "And what about over time?” Blame the Government: The State prosecuted a case against a matza company whose prod- ducts had contained bits of dead insects. But in Court it was proved that it was the State it self that had sold the bakery the contaminated flour. Better, Better, Best: When a Haifa mother gave birth to trip lets at the local private Better Hospital, the name of the insti tution was considered quite ap propriate. Dr. Better did not at tend the birth; the physician in charge was Dr. Dora Best. Unexpected Guests: Micha Noy, Israel’s television chef, had no sooner finished demonstrat ing a recipe, than the studio phone rang. An excited woman at the other end of the line asked if she could have the portions which she had just seen him take out of the oven; her husband was bringing home unexpected guests for dinner. They are Not Storks: The vil lage of Or Yehuda, adjacent to Lydda Airport, has the highest birthrate in Israel. One expla nation: noise of the planes keeps the inhabitants awake at night. Bar Mitzva — Tax Deducti ble: A Tel Aviv father claimed a business tax deduction for his son’s Bar Mitzva expenses. He had to invite ail his custom ers and clients or his business would have suffered. He was granted a deduction of 30% of the cost of the party. New Export Opportunities: An Israeli delegation in deepest Africa came across a native tribe who were hanging cans of Israel preserves from their ears to help elongate the lobes. Encore! Encore! When a group of students at Bar Han Univer sity complained that they had to take certain exams over again in the fall, Dr. Baruch Kazan, their teacher, explained. “We were so impressed with "(CWftWm JAPANESE m£ars "Humst oue: your answers the first time that we simply had to invite you back for an encore!” Beyond the Call of Duty: From Russia comes the story of the time when there was a seri ous shortage of building mater ials and stone of all kinds. When a man died they would even take the name plate off his door to put up as a tombstone. Hence it was not surprising to find a sign on one grave: “Dr. Jacob Idelson, Gynecologist. Receives patients daily between 4 and 7.” No Small Change: Yehudit and Yossi Feldman left their BLACKTOP DRIVEWAYS 4" Stone base, 2" Plant Mix asphalt. 9 ft. wide, 50 ft. long BLACKTOP PARKING LOTo 4" Stone base, 2" Plant Mix asphalt. 30 ft. wide, 50 ft. long Free Estimates • Phone anytime 874-6347 WALLACE PAVERS 194 16th Street, N.
