The remains of Dr. Judah L. Magnes, rabbi, educator and one-time president of the Hebrew University, who died in New York in 1948 were re-interred in the Sanhedria Cemetery here yesterday.
Thousands of friends and former associates of the widely respected educator attended the services, including a long list of notables headed by Chief Rabbi Isaac Herzog and Supreme Court Justice Gad Frumkin. Representatives of every political party in Israel from the far right of the Herut to the Communists, came to pay their last respects, as did Arabs from nearby villages, members of the Knesset and the entire academic staff of the Hebrew University.
