Rottenest moment as NY officer serves Sabbath summons
NY patrolman Kenneth Fischer said he felt rotten after serving a summons to Alexander's store manager for observing the Sabbath shopping event for disabled patrons. The Bronx store has hosted the annual day for 11 years, with tax and profits benefiting participating institutions. The complaint came from Arthur Wolfson of the Retail Labor Council, sparking disbelief from store executives. In Houston, the school district won permission to use $325,000 in federal funds to clothe about 11,000 needy children for 1972-73.
