P.S. JIVBarts commentator Michael Ajzenstadt said it is nothing short of phen-oriienal for Mehta to have (1) made such a lengthy speech to a concert audience anywhere — a speech unre-
lated to music or program-arid (2) to have taken a public stand on a concert stage about a humanitarian concern of this nature.
Very interesting . . . CFRO-FM 102.7 gives free air space regularly to the Voice of Palestine, a program saturated with subtle and not so subtle propaganda verbiage and anti-Israel venom offered as poetry, news and fact every time you tune in . . . CFRO also gives free time; to the Anthology of Jewish Music, which has been including a few bits and pieces on Jewish affairs as well for many, many months, including a ^ short interview recently with ' Kevin Abrams on the Rally for Jphathan Pollard held this summer in.New York . .

Vardina taught Hebrew arid Jewish history at Maim on ides Secondar Schodl, and plans to resume teaching in Israel, Noa, 15, will return to high school, while 18-year-old Ido, who finished first-year $cience at UBC, is going straight into the Israeli army — just like Dad.
The J N F shqlidch has f0urid Vaneouver's Jewish comriiunity especially cooperative in donations and assistance. "It's not easy to raise money," he observed, "but if you work hard arid approach the right people, they're willing to give.
"The purpose of the JNF remains the same as it was when it was founded in 1901: to buy land in Israel, to build reservoirs, and to absorb ohm. Arid all the money is going directly to Israel."
The Robinsons have' moved to Re'ut, a new city between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, built for arniy officers and their families.
"Everyone who waints to visit me will be welcome," he suggested. "The phone and fax numbers are available in the JNF office."
Although his mishpachg is now half a world away, Robinsori vows he'll keep close to Vancouver. "As we say in Israel, 'You're never finished with a friend.' " - .
air clips from some rally speeches, but was stopped by the station prior to broadcast of the first clip — strange considering that it had already been airing without anything being said previously, a mixed bag of mostly music but some interview segments.
Let's hope CFRO redefines the matter so that the Jewish program has asmuch right as the Voice of Palestine to air music as well as news clips, poems, interviews arid even bits of speeches of famous people to enrich everyone's lives . . . Suggested name change! Anthology of the Jewish People — or perhaps Voice of Jewry?
But at least in this newspaper (and for the next two weeks as' well) you can read three brief outstanding Pollard Rally speeches, beginning with the words of the famous Pat Robertson (See Op Ed Page Five).
Nu, . Kinder lack, it's a distinct pleasure to wish ya'all a wonderful week ahead . ; . And may the weekend refresh you . Good Shabbos — Shavua Tovl
