While these had been discarded by people of the area and col lected by Lions club members they will be put to good use by Dr. M. C. Modi of the I Jons club ot Bangalore City. India. Dr Modi has been devoting his professional services to eye patients among the poor for some time. In a single day he had performed as many as 237 operations. In fact, his record 510 operations in a single day was performed at Anatatur in 1959. He is assisted by a battery of 100 doctors, nurses, attend ants, and of course the patients, and by streamlined procedures the eye operation, usually re moval of cataracts, takes only about 45 minutes. Many of the glasses are re fitted for the patients following the cataract removal. * ¿»» Teenage committee members, better known as TAG’, are busy working on plans for the an nual 4th of July parade and Queen coronation.
