Billy at first glance is typical of small boys the world over. A front tooth is missing. His face could use a washing. Billy, when you look again, is a boy tragically different from the others. He doesn't talk, he doesn't ride a bicycle or play ball. He pulls a chair into a cor ner of the room, turns his face to the wall, and rocks by the hour. Billy this is the name we shall use for him is one of the 500,000 children, in this country who are mentally ill an estimate from the Child Ay el- fare league of America. Billy, the psychiatrists say, is schizophrenic, who at the age of eight, has "lost contact with his environment. I met Billy during a visit to an unusual school in Brooklyn a day school sponsored by the National League for Emotionally Disturbed children. One day, six months or may be a year from now, Billy may turn his face into thei room, and to the world. He may use words or sentences, instead of mum bling sounds which only he un derstands. Others in the Brooklyn school, orre of four therapeutic schools sponsored by the six-year-old league, have shown improve ment. Some have been "gradu ated" into public schools, from which they once were exclud ed because they were too ill to fit into the normal classroom. Only Hope "We don't talk here of cures . . . only of hope," said Carl Fen ichel, the head of the Brooklyn school, which has a current en rollment of 29 children between four and 11 years. "But we dO believe these children can be helped, and are educable." "Around here, we feel like celebrating almost every day," said Fenichel, a father of two normal children, and an educa tor and psychologist with many years of experience in working with the mentally ill child. "When a youngster quits bang ing his head against the wall . . . will take solid food . . . even looks at us and smiles, we re joice." The Brooklyn school is the "pilot" for the league, which had its beginnings with 26 par ents of mentally sick children. The parents, not wanting their children in state institutions and unable to afford private ones, joined into a local group at first. But as other parents inquired into the local chapter's work, the league decided to go nation al. It now has 2,000 members parents, professionals and public-spirited citizens and the banking of some of the top psy chiatrists and sociologists in the country. Parents pay whatever they can afford to enroll their chil dren . . . the league, through its fund-raising campaigns, sup plies additional financial aid. Some Show Brilliance Fenichel said the emotionally disturbed child is not the same as the mentally retarded . . . some of his 29 show brilliance Beauty Consultant Speaks for Croup At the last meeting of Med ford Jayccites. guest speaker was Mrs. E. F. Halgren, "Charles of the Ritz" beauty consultant. Mrs. Halgren spoke on com plexion care, the proper way to apply make up and the four dif ferent types of skin. Mrs. Don Yocum was elected member-at-large. pro tein, to re place Mrs. Monte Stram, who recently moved to southern California. in art, music, mechanics or math ematics. "We had one boy who could multiply a set of three digits in his head, but refused to tell the time," he said. "Another child knew at least 150 nursery rhymes. Some case histories show children who at the age of two, three or four seemed normal talking, laughing and playing. But something "triggered" the child's flight from reality. "it might oe the birth of a sibling . . . brief separation from a parent . . . for. one of our children here, it apparently was a tonsillectomy," said Fenichel. He said psychiatry no longer blames the parent, and that he and others in the field now be lieve that some imbalance in the child's constitutional, or chemi cal makeup, causes him to be schizophrenic prone. "Research one day may show that the cure lies in a combina tion oft herapy and biochem istry," said Fenichel.
