Bedouin Slain In Negev Attack
Transcribed from the clipping
JERUSALEM, Israel Section, Aug. 14.—(AP)—An Israel army spokesman reported today that armed infiltrators attacked a Bedouin camp near Beersheba, in the Negev Desert, last night and killed one tribesman and wounded another. The raiders took one tribesman and a flock of sheep with them when they made their escape, he said.
How this transcription was made
Read from the scan by a machine looking at the image of the page, not by optical character recognition and not by a person. The clipping carries no masthead or date line, so its date and newspaper rest on the record it arrived with, not on anything visible in the scan.
Context added by this archive
Date check: No masthead or folio line on this clipping; it is a trimmed single-column brief. The AP dateline reads “JERUSALEM, Israel Section, Aug. 14.”, consistent with publication on 1955-08-15, but the year and the paper cannot be confirmed from the scan.
