Sylva Zalmanson, who spent four years in a Soviet prison and became the symbol of the Soviet Jewry movement here and around the world, will arrive in New York City on Oct. 27. Miss Zalmanson, who four years ago was sentenced to 10 years in a Soviet prison for allegedly hijacking a Russian airliner, will spend a week in New York under the sponsorship of the Greater New York Conference on Soviet Jewry, part of a three-week tour of the U.S. under the auspices of the National Conference on Soviet Jewry.

There will be no Bulletin Oct. 28 due to Veteran’s Day, a postal holiday.
