The relations between the Hillel Foundations and the Intercollegiate Zionist Federation of American were discussed here today at the sixth annual convention of the I.Z.F.A. which is attended by more than 100 delegates. The convention affirmed the stand that the I.Z.F.A. should be an active and positive nucleus within the Hillel.
The convention saluted the first garin of Haoleh, the chalutz arm of I.Z.F.A., which has permanently settled at Kibbutz Yiftach in Israel, and adopted a resolution to strengthen the bond with former I.Z.F.A. members who are living in Israel. An extensive projects campaign and an increased emphasis on membership and public relations for Israel on the campus were also planned by the convention.
