SHOW BENEFIT MOVIE TO AID INDIA HOSPITAL One of the greatest movies ever filmed in India, "Jhnak, Jhanak, Pawal Baaje" (rough translation: Twinkling Feet) will be shown at the McHenry Theatre on Wednesday, May 19, at 8 p.m. as a benefit for the America-India-Dispensary hospital project in the village of Ammathi, South India. Dr. Rathna Aiwa, staff physician at McHenry Hospital, who will go to India to assume director of the hospital when it is completed next year, has arranged for the showing of the movie Movie goers In the McHenry area will thus have a chance to see a technicolor movie of rare beauty and interest which has not been shown to trie general American public. The people-to-people hospital project at Ammathi is attracting attention both in India and America for its unique approach to medical aid. Instead of being developed in the traditional American way of Americans providing everything for the aided group, this hospital is being built with funds donated both in India and America. Located in an underprivilaged village area where there are no medical facilities at all, the project will provide a modern medical service to 30,000 people. Leaders of the Indian community, are raising most of the cost of the building; Americans are providing hospital equipment and supplies. Dr. Aiwa, who has made rfcany friends during, her stay in McHenry, conceived the idea of the project several years ago. Despite major efforts by the Indian government, doctors and facilities are scarce in the village areas of India, where the majority of the people live. Chicago area friends of Dr. Aiwa learned of her desire to help some unfortunate rural community in India, and the America- India-Dispensary was organized. Construction is now underway on a thirty-bed building with a large out-patient clinic.
