A public reception in honor of the Italian professors and students visiting here under the leadership of Prof. Julio Subak, was given here yesterday in the hall of the Gymnasia Ivrith, the Hebrew high school.
Hebrew students from the Italian universities, the Italian consul in Jerusalem and Prof. Subak, delivered addresses. A street demonstration took place in honor of the guests, the participants shouting “Viva Italia.”
It was learned here that the excursion was organized by the Italian government and is part of its program to bring about a rapprochement between Italy and the Near East. Several excursions are to take place during the year.
