KU prof recounts life in Israeli settlements
By ANNE FITZGERALD
Staff Reporter
Dorothy Willner and thousands of other protesters peacefully left Yamit — one of the settlements given to Egypt as part of the Camp David accords — when it was evacuated in 1982.
She said some of the soldiers visibly sympathized with them.
Wilner, KU professor of anthropology, said last night that the evacuation of Yamiri was peaceful, and the police had done nothing to forcibly remove some protesters.
But should Israel settlements on the West Bank have to be evacuated, violence might erupt more easily, she said.
And the longer peace evades the Middle East, the more likely blood-shed becomes, she said.
WILLNER SPOKE to 25 people last night in Wescoe Hall on "Development Towns in Israel! Kiryat Shmona and Yamit."
In the 1950s, she spent four years in Israel conducting anthropological research, and has visited the country several times since then.
Wilmer was in Israel from February to June last year, when she witnessed not only the dismantling of the Army's base but Liberation Organization's bombing
of Kiryat Shmona, which is located near Lebanon's southern border and was the first settlement established by Israel.
She said that in some ways both settlement cities were characteristic of the entire state of Israel.
"The creation of Israel as a society has meant putting people on ground and settling it," she said.
AT FIRST, THE Israeli government promoted rural land settlement, but by the end of the 1950s, development towns, such as Yamit and Kiyriyah Shmona, had become the centre of settlement in Israel, she said.
They were usually located along the borders, away from the big population centers, such as Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, where defense of purposes of defence, she said.
Israel is small — about as wide as the distance between Lawrence and Kansas City, Kan. — but because it is not yet recognized by all of its neighbors, the border settlements here as a cushion of security, she said.
Wilner said that it was exceptional for such a small country to be at the center of international attention, but that it was just one of those countries in world in which all that took place held importance for people everywhere.

Legislators to tour center
In honor of a resolution passed this session by the Kansas Legislature that recognizes the first landing on the moon, three area legislators will tour the Space Technology Center on West Campus today.
State Sen. Wint Winter Jr., R-Lawrence, and State Reps. Betty Jo Charlton and Jessie Branson, both D-Lawrence, helped persuade the Legislature to set aside one week in January for conservation biology. The resolution also makes July 20, the anniversary of the first moon landing, Space Technology Day.
KANSAS IS THE first state to officially recognize a space technology week.
The three legislators will be available for photographs and questions at the hearing.
Tribute paid to victims of bombing
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — With a declaration that "peace cannot be killed by killing the peacemakers" and a pledge to continue the quest, Washington paid solenium tribute yesterday to the victims of Keel's U.S. Embassy bombing in Beirut.
"We will not be deterred by the cowardly acts of terrorists," Deputy Secretary of State Kenneth Dam said. More than 3,000 people, led by Vice President George Bush, assembled in the towering nave of the National Cathedral for a memorial service honoring 17 Americans and a score of Lebanese and others killed in the attack.
"PEACE CANNOT be killed by killing the peacemakers," said Darm, who is serving as acting secretary of state while Secretary George Shultz is in the Middle East. "The work of our president will be restored to the troubled land."
Of the Americans, he said, "If we grow tired in the pursuit of peace, their courage and perseverance will inspire us."
The vice president was seated with the survivors of the American dead. To one side sat Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger and the diplomatic corps, led by Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin.
