Blind people are not blessed with a keener sense of hearing, touch, or smell than the sighted. This is, "an old wives tale," said Wally Kennedy, District Administrator of the CNIB, London branch. He said the reason for the belief is that blind people are more dependent on these senses - they try harder. Wally, blind from birth, ad- dressed a recent meeting of Alpha Huron held in Holmesville Public School. He said the blind have the same needs, desires, and most capabilities of those with vision. He was especially proud of a young man, who lately received an engineer's degree at a local university, and is now gainfully employed with an engineering firm, The CNIB helps all who come to them seeking guidance or help. To put their beliefs into practise, they never hire a sighted person, if a blind one can do the job. Wally's talk was preceded by a short film strip depicting types of blindness. A display table held such gadgets as a collapsible white cane, dominoes, playing cards, talking calculator, and one of the newer electronic devices, an opticon, which allows the blind to read a book with ordinary printing. Elaine Townshend thanked Mr. Kennedy and presented him with a $25 cheque for the CNIB. The next meeting of Alpha will be held at Holmesville School July 26 a t 8 p.m. Everyone is welcome.
