However, the remainder of those polled selected Moshe Dayan, the Israel Defense Minister, as fourth among the heroes they admire.

They were asked the following questions: "Is there any living American or foreign public figure whom you admire and respect, or with whom you identify?" 53.1 per cent of the boys and girls questioned readily confessed that there was no living public figure they admired enough to emulate. •Ili.!) per cent managed to produce a public figure they claimed to respect; .'!•! per cent chose Robert F.
