A group of 47 young men and women from all parts of the United States and Canada sailed for Israel yesterday aboard the S. S. Jerusalem to participate in the fourth annual workshop in Israel sponsored by the Habonim Labor Zionist Youth Organization.
The members of the group will spend one year in a program of work and study at Kfar Blum, which will include attendance at seminars and participation in ex-tended tours of Israel. There are some 200 graduates of the Habonim workshops now doing Zionist youth work in this country and Canada.
