"Farewell to Fear" is the story of Thelma Keitlen as told by her to the author Norman Lobenz. In it the courageous woman, who lost her sight sev eral years ago at the age of 32, gives proof that eyesight is not a requisite for success, for she has achieved a career such as few women with all of their facilities can claim. Mrs. Keitlen and her Seeing Eye dog travel widely at home and abroad as she lectures and carries on business for the Physical Fitness Institute of New York. She enjoys music, photography and horseback rid ing, but most amazing of all is her prowess as a skier in the Berkshires. Another book, "Tomorrow is Now" by Eleanor Roosevelt, was the basis for Mrs. Linin ger's half - hour talk. At the time of her death last year Mrs. Roosevelt had completed only the rough draft of it. Many quotations were includ ed, all emphasizing the need for a free and peaceful world, to gether with greater dignity as human beings. The author, an admirer of Reinhold Niebuhr, stressed his belief that "nothing however virtuous can be accom plished alone" and that "nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in a lifetime, therefore we must be saved by hope. Nothing which is true or beau tiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history, therefore we must be saved by faith."
