Officials of the Munich Municipality said today the city is planning an Israeli Cultural Week to be held May 5-11 in 1962. Two Israeli theatrical and music groups will be invited to participate. An Israeli arts and crafts exhibit is being planned for the city museum.

The Israel Mission reported here today that 11, 000 marks had been willed to Israel by Mrs. A. Zeller, a member of one of the oldest Jewish families in Essen who died last month in the Jewish Old Age home in Cologne. Mrs. Zeller, who was blind, stipulated that 10, 000 marks be granted for a home for the blind in Israel and the other 1, 000 marks to be used for planting trees in memory of her deceased husband.
