Congressional sources said today that President-elect Nixon will name New York State Judge and former U.S. Senator Kenneth Keating as the new Ambassador to Israel, succeeding Walworth Barbour. The same sources said that Mr. Nixon intends to appoint millionaire publisher Walter Annenberg as Ambassador to Britain. He would be the first Jew in American history to receive that post. There was no comment from Nixon aides on either of the assignments. Judge Keating, a Republican, was a leading advocate of Israeli, causes when he served in the Senate. Mr. Annenberg, a personal friend of Mr. Nixon, publishes the Inquirer and the Daily News, two Philadelphia dailies, as well as the mass circulation magazines, TV Guide and Seventeen.
