Some 5800 high school and college youths will enjoy an Israeli experience tailored to their special interests when they join the 39 different programs offered by the American Zionist Youth Foundation’s 1972 Israel Summer Program, it was announced here by Mrs. Shirley Kalb, acting chairman of the AZYF Board of Trustees. This represents an increase of more than 28 percent over the 4500 young people who participated in AZYF summer programs last year. The multitude of programs ranging from seven to eleven weeks are for 15-18-year-old high school students and 18-25-year-old college students.
