...poems show that morbidity had always been her native element. In the Ariel poems, published posthumously, madness is her theme, her scream and her doom. Ominous presences lurk in the shadows of her lines. Objects, col ors, odors, nature itself claw at the raw, chafed nerves of her being. In these last works she was half in love with death and courted it to attain the only peace that her tormented spirit could apparently know...

...killed when Syrian mortar shells hit their trench. On the Suez front on election day, there were 72 incidents involving mortar fire, small arms and antitank missiles. Israeli leaders warn that without agreement on disengagement, the Geneva talks could collapse; some are putting the matter even more strongly. General Ariel Sharon, the Suez-front commander who won a Knesset seat on the Likud list and will leave the army to take it, says bluntly: "We will not accept a war of attrition." In a talk last week with TIME Chief of Correspondents Murray J. Gart and Jerusalem Bureau Chief William...

...Likud's strongest assets is Israel's latest war hero, General Ariel ("Arik") Sharon, who led the Israeli army's daring and successful counterthrust across the Suez Canal. Likud's greatest obstacle to victory is clearly Menachem Begin, who has led the opposition since 1948.

Among the Irgun's acts of savagery under his command were the blowing up of the King...

...Labor Party needs all the unity it can muster as it begins campaigning for the Dec. 31 Knesset (parliament) election. Israeli newspaper polls show Labor fast losing ground to the opposition Likud coalition, which is led by such hawks as Menachem Begin and Major General Ariel ("Arik") Sharon. Until the election returns are in, the Arabs will have no assurance that any compromises made by Israel's present government will be accepted by the next one-especially if Likud makes an impressive showing. Moreover, Israeli delegates will hardly dare take a stance in Geneva that could cost them votes...

Arik's Complaint. The opening salvo in this war was fired by Major General Ariel ("Arik") Sharon, 45, who was called out of retirement to lead the successful Israeli thrust across the Suez Canal that helped trap Egypt's Third Army. In interviews with reporters from the New York Times and Los Angeles Times that were filed from Rome to skirt the tough Israeli censors, Sharon charged that his superiors were not prepared for the war. The General amplified his accusations in yet another in- -terview with American University Professor Amos Perlmutter: "The Southern Command collapsed completely...
