"Two reasons brought about the change," according to Simon. "One was administrative and the other was economical. With a pronounced membership growth in southern California, obvious savings on travel and other costs could be made by relocating headquarters there."

The public did not know that Peres wrote poeti'y until he disclosed it himself during a recent interview. Ms. Yarkoni then asked Peres to give her one of his poems for her to record as a song.
The poem he gave her was written after the Six-Day War and was about Kalya, the Jewish settlement near the Dead Sea that was destroyed in the War of Independence.
Ms. Yarkoni presented Peres with a record of the song, "In Praise of Kalya," adapted byKobi Oshrat from the Peres poem.
It includes such verses as: "Behind the scenes Kalya is making ready /Painting herself/ Purple for the sunset/ Grey in her meditation/ Azure-blue trails her misty shores/ Her depths full of airs ablaze/ Her horizons far distant.
"A town of refuge/ Where imagination is safe/Sheltered always . . . .Her lovers strong but unwanted/ Her perfumes speak of ancient days. . . .Lovely as a woman yet shrouded'^ in sadness. ..."
