She even charged the Foundation with using more posi- tive means of preventing her method of treatment from gelling a foothold in this country. Sister.Kenny appeared under the sponsorship of the Sisterhood of Temple B'nai Israel. After inviting her to come to Freeport, officers of the Sisterhood found accommoda- tions In the temple inadequate to meet the demand. They then de- cided to issue a general invitation for everyone to attend and pro- cured the use of the high school auditorium. Several hundred per- sons attended. Success Amazed Doctors Mrs. Julius Birgenthal, Sister- • hood president, opened the meeting and presented Mrs. Daniel Fried- man, the program chairman, who introduced the speaker. \ Sister Kenny explained that as a young nur.se in the bush section or Aus- tralia she had as a patltmt a Hilhl who was found to have paralysis. A doctor 40 miles away wired her to.\use her own judgment\ in treat- ing the case. She did so and when he recovered he suffered no ab- normalities from his sickness. The doctors were amazed when they examined the patient. Sister Kenny continued to use her method and finally fame 10 New York in 1939 where sh«* said doctors after interviewing Uer ad- vised her *'to return to Australia.\ She did not do so, but went to other places seeking recognition.

When a <rroup of approximately fifty residents o! Xortlnvextern section itl' the village appeared before the V Board Thursday uijrlit and declarrd themselves unalt\ opposed to a bus \line through the area, the members v.*ere taken com- pletely by surprise. Oilier delega- tions have opposed various routes as they were proposed, but as Mayor Cyril . C. Kyan explained, never before had' a-iyone, even sug- gested that the Board abandon the project entirely. Joseph F. Creamtr, who said he bad lived at 204 Prince ave., ten years, was the first spokesman. When lie opposed the bus line. Mayor Kyan replied the Hoard be- lieved it was acting in accordance to the wishes of the people in plan- ning for the line, though no. oirt>- seemed to wa^nt it to run through his street. Civics Endorsed Bus Line The Mayor told of receiving a petition requesting the establish- ment of a bus route through the area during the war when buses were not available and action had to be <A?luyed. -Later the applica- tion was .renewed be added. He 1 said the ' Northwest Civic Associa- tion, alter conducting a poll among its members endorsed the proposed line. Consequently, he continued, thinking it was carrying out I hi* ! wishes of the people the board re- ' t'erred the matter lo the Transpor- ; 1 at ion Commission, which selected la route and recommended that the Semke IJus Co. be given a permit to operate l lie i-ouie. which was changed to meet his suggestions. i However. Mr. CreajiH'r conteri<]eil JthaL a bus Kne through an \A.A.\ xoned residence area was a viola- tion ol' the zoning as be asserted il would Lend to decrease property values and menace children. He asserled, also there was no vital need for the line. Mayor Ryan again insisted people in the area had requested a bus line and the hoard was taking the steps necessary to provide one. -He referred to the fin l thai the only objection\ TO the line\ operating through May view ave,, in the south- ern section of tlif 1 village was that heard when the company failed to give adequate service. : .Whitehouse Started \Petition Frederick W. Whiteliouse e.\- plafhed the matte.- of buses—had- _r.ome_.to..his attention when he read a paragraph- in a ^Nassau County daily revealing . application had been filed by the Semke company for permission- to operate through the Village of Hen.pstead on the way from Freeport to HofsLra Col- lege. Thereupon, he continued, he circulated a petition opposing the bus line which was fclgned by \more than one hundred residents of thn area. The Mayor explained he and the other members of the Board 'under- stood the petitioners to be opposed to the proposed route through Long Beach ave. and other streets, and not against buses In general. He read -lhe petition to back up his statement. However, several speak- ers accused him of misconstruing the meaning of the .wording of the petition. Stanley Livingston finally said one of the reasons for opposing the line was that service for the North- west ared was only Incidental in that the main purpose was. to. at- tract people from other communi- ties to, Freeport by operating the line all the way. to Hofstra 'Col- lege. \I do\ not think such a rline should be run through a residential sectipn,\ he declared. .
