Premier Menachem Begin
and' Egyptian President
Anwar Sadat met for 90 minutes in a private summit conversation in this resort town,
due to be handed back to the
Egyptians, next year, and
both leaders expressed satisfaction with their talk. Both
hailed the Israel-Egypt
peace treaty and the Camp
David accords as the only
stable factor in a turbulent
Middle East.
Begin agreed to Sadat's
suggestion that U.S. special
envoy Philip Habib should be
given more time to try and
solve the Syrian missile
crisis by diplomatic means,
though Begin indicated he
was not prepared to give him
the open-ended opportunity
Sadat suggested. Begin ajso
rejected Sadat's request that
Israel halt its bombing and
raids on terrorist bases in
Lebanon, explaining that
these were essential to ensure Israel's security.
The Ofira summit was
held in tight security and;.

Although Begin and his
Likud colleagues deny that
the Premier requested the
summit for political purposes, it will obviously figure
large in the Likud alliance
campaign, which is concentrating on the peace treaty
with Egypt.
Meanwhile,   the  White
House announced that President Anwar Sadat has accepted an invitation from
President Reagan to visit
Washington Aug. 5-6 and

Jewish Community Honors
Si Anthony's Hospital
Jewish Center Annual Meeting
Set For Next Wednesday, June 17
On Tuesday, May 19, a reception was held in the Terrace Room of St. Anthony's
Hospital to honor the hospital administration and
staff for their efforts on behalf of Project Abraham.
Project Abraham is a program initiated by individuals in the Columbus Jewish
community to finance and
arrange for circumcision for
immigrants from the Soviet
Union.
The circumcisions are performed jointly by Rabbi
Marvin Possick, a mohel,
and Dr. Maurice Zox, a surgeon. St. Anthony's Hospital,
an institution under Catholic
auspices, has been, cooperative in providing operating
room space and staff anesthesiologists gratis.
Following the circumcisions of two seven year old
twin boys, a gift was presented to St. Anthony's by
.Frank Nutis. Nutis pointed
out that it was only 'in a
country like the U.S. that one
religious group would go out
of its way to ensure that another religious group is able'
to observe its rituals freely.
In the Soviet Union the government prohibits ritual cir-
cumgsion; in Columbus a
Christian institution is helping Russian Jews to be rit-
ually circumcised.
Greeting and prayers were
offered by representatives of
-the. Conservative, Orthodox,
and Reform congregations
in Columbus—Rabbis
Rarold Berman, Marvin
Possick, and Robert Levy respectively. Also in attendance were Rabbis Howard
Alpert, Samuel Rubinstein,
and David Stavsky along
with 75 lay leaders of the
Jewish community.

Administrator; Ronald
Moder, Director of Admissions and Patient Accounts;
and Charles Turner,
Administrator.
