The Nahum Sokolow Journalists Center was formally opened here last night at a ceremony attended by newspapermen, Premier David Ben Gurion, Israeli cultural leaders and representatives of the American Fund for Israeli Institutions.
The Fund contributed $70, 000 toward the 250, 000 pound cost of the building. The center honors one of the foremost pioneer Hebrew editors and one-time president of the World Zionist Organization.
