He stopped and she shouted that her kids were in the building. Rushing into the building he banged on doors, shouting %u201c fire.%u201d Upon reaching the burning third floor apartment, he entered and rescued two youngsters.As the fire spread, he re-entered the house looking for other residents, but the smoke was overwhelming and he was forced to make his way to the street for air. Without any help in sight, he reentered the burning building and aided a man whose arms had been burnt. Making his way to the street with the injured man, he saw fire equipment, and the Police had arrived.Meyerson is currently on sick leave from Methodist Hospital due to a recent operation. At the time of the fire he was going to see his physician for an examination.State Senator Carol Bellamy and Assemblyman Michael Pesce held a press conference yesterday, along with the staff of the Greenwood Service Center, to decry the City%u2019s decision to close the center in the wake of the establishment of the new Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Program.The Greenwood Center, located at 100 Lawrence St., provides a comprehensive program of services for more than 25,000 Disabled, Aged and Blind people from South Brooklyn and otherHawkins...Continued from Page 4borough and the vision of good conduct drawn from Manhattan theater practices may be an expression of old second city inferiority feelings, and may preclude concentration on gathering an audience from closer parts.Though most of the past borough steadfasts may not be as adventurous as the man who came to view the Hawkins presentation, there must be thousands of Brooklyn residents interested in such programming who still think of Manhattan as the place to go for a night%u2019s outing.Has the BAM with its eye across the river left out the nearby communities. Cobble Hillers and Brooklyn Heights residents wonder why special Academy buses once traveled across the waters but were never arranged for Brooklyn communities. A Leffert%u2019s Gardens couple chooses Manhattan because the night out includes dinner at a nearby restaurant. Why has there been no serious effort to bring a .good, inexpensive restaurant inside or near the Academy? And, why can%u2019t there be a concerted effort to connect with Brooklyn community fetes a Boerum Hill house tour a Park Slope Block Party with the celebrants winding up at an Academy program, welcomed, rather than accused of unmodish behavior. The Manhattan crowds might join in after all.PURE CORN!(b ro o klyp )Black art onyellow T-shirtOnly $3.95 per shirtIndicate which:Brooklyn %u2022 BellvbuttonSmall - Med. - LargeMail to:Alexander & AllP.O.

Services include legal, medical, nutritional advice and aid and liason work.With the institution of the SSI program, a number of offices of community service were to be ,set up to provide similar services and therefore Greenwood was to be closed. Bellamy and Pesce claim, however, that many service offices have not been opened and those that are are not functionally adequately.Howard Zimmerman, a Brooklyn Heights resident and staff member at Greenwood explained that Mayor Beame will probably ultimately decide the center%u2019s fate. %u201cWe are calling upon all concerned South Brooklyn residents,%u201d he said, %u201cto help us continue to provide reassurance services to DAB people. A letter or phone call to the Mayor, to the Human Resources Administration, 250 Church St., NYC, (553-5997) or to Borough President Leone could have a significant impact on the city%u2019s decision.%u201dOrange StreetResidents M eetAmid fears the %u201cclean-up%u201d underway at the Pierrepont Hotel has led to a transferal of problem tenants to the Franklin Arms Hotel, the Orange St. Block Association held an emergency meeting' Jan.

The Boards would definitely rate consideration and control over the establishment or proliferation of methadone centers and Halfway Houses in residential areas.While duly impressed with the latest statistics which indicated a sharp decline in the number of known Brooklyn drug addicts, Leone emphasized control of the drug abuse menace in the Borough remained, as it does throughout the nation, one of society%u2019s most serious problems.%u201cI was most heartened to receive figures from Dr. Robert Newman, Narcotics Register Director,%u201d the BP said, %u201cThat showed a drop in Brooklyn of from 9,000 to 3,800 new registrants for the first six months of %u201973, compared with 1972.%u201cThere are shorter waiting lists at most drug addiction treatment centers and drug free programs such as Phoenix, Oddyssey House and similar facilities. The presence of Addiction Service Agency mobile van units, which operate two vans, five days per week, has been of great help to the suffering addict and in the first six months of %u201973 referred over 4,500 addicts into treatment.%u201dLeone maintains that the establishment of rehabilitation centers in suburban or outlying areas might be the best curtailment of the drug abuse menace. Leone said abandoned military training centers, armories or similar installations could be converted into training centers where addicts could receive the best of medical, therapeutic, job counseling and similar services to prepare them for re-entry into the world of reality they had abandoned for narcotics.
