A group of prominent French poets has launched an appeal in behalf of a Soviet Jewish scientist, Yuri Tamopolsky, who was last year sentenced to three years detention in a labor camp in Siberia for having applied for an emigration visa to Israel. The poets include such prominent literary figures as Pierre Emmanuel and Robert Mallet.
