David Chernoglass, 36, of Leningrad has been given an exit visa to rejoin his family in Israel, the Greater New York Conference on Soviet Jewry reported Friday. Chernoglass was released last June 15 after completing a five-year term at the Vladimir prison but was unable to obtain an exit permit immediately, the Conference said Chernoglass had been sentenced in Kishinev in June, 1971. Meanwhile, sources reported that Yakov Vinarov, 21, was sentenced Friday by the Kiev city court to three years in jail for evading the military draft after he was refused permission last March to emigrate to Israel.
