Arab-American Club Sponsors Program for 'Exodus' Rebuttal
The Other Side of "Exodus" will be the theme of a special program during Palestine Day at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Jayahawk Room of the Kansas Union.
The program is being sponsored by the KU Arab-American Club. The main feature of the program will be a speech given by Hassan Abdullah, the director of the Arab Information Center in Chicago. He will speak on the Arab refugees and the circumstances that brought about the creation of Israel. Abdullah will also show a movie dealing with the subject.
Commenting on the program Ismeil Shaltuini, Palestine senior and a member of the Arab-American Club, said, "This is the first time that such a program has been given at KU. We hope that it will become an annual affair.
"We have seen the same type of program given by other Arab- American Clubs at other universities and we felt a need to do something here," he continued. "We want to present to people the other side of the novel "Exodus."

nations, he continued. There is little trade or communication between the two sides, and only for religious purposes is one permitted to travel back and forth. Even then he must do so with great precautions taken by the Israeli and Arab governments.
The Palestine Day celebration will also commemorate the 17th anniversary of the loss of Palestine as an Arab country, Shaltuni said.
"We also will hand out booklets at our Thursday night meeting. They will concern the origin of
