Seven Scarsdale high school students, including David Arnow, son of Robert Arnow, president of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, raised $10,000 yesterday for Israel in a house-to-house solicitation in Scarsdale. Reporting the solicitation, the United Jewish Appeal said the donations included two checks for $1,000 each and one check for $5,000. The money was sought to buy medical supplies for Israel.
