TRADITION...
ing after a brutal subway attack
and a cancer diagnosis left
her wheelchair-bound, but the
82-year-old said that will not
hold her back from organizing
another great get-together
that could help people from
all over the country.
“Wouldn’t it be nice for us
to invite people to New York
during the holiday season? It’s
a community basically,” Fagen
said.
The journalist who has
written for the Brooklyn
Heights Press and has penned
singles columns for several
publications, started her tradition
in the 1960s when a
man wrote into her column
asking where he could spend
Thanksgiving.
One of the holiday hostess’
Easter feasts even got
a write up in the New York
Times in 1982, when she and
her fellow revelers dined on
rock cornish hen, quiche, fried
chicken, lox, cream cheese,
salads, and homemade desserts
in between live music
and group singing, this paper
reported .
Bringing people together
has been a blessing for her, and
when asked why she keeps doing
it despite her ailing health,
she quoted the author of the
Peter Pan books, James M.

Cops are hunting the
knife-wielding wacko
who slashed a 53-yearold
woman amid a bloody
purse snatching in Prospect
Lefferts Gardens earlier
this month.
The victim told police she
was on Maples Street between
Brooklyn and New
York Avenues at 9:50 a.m.
on May 16, when the wretch
attempted to rip the purse
from her shoulder.
But the woman wasn’t
ready to roll over, and she put
up a struggle that spurred the
blade-toting bandit to slash
her once across the belly,
and then again under the
eye, cops said.
The victim relinquished
her purse, and the lowlife
fled with the credit cards
and $100 it contained, cops
said.
Paramedics, meanwhile,
rushed to the victim’s aid,
transporting her to a nearby
hospital for treatment, and
she’s since been released,
according to police.

have little practical effect on
the spread of disease.
“It’s outrageous to try and
take our religious exemptions
away, when we make up less
than half of one percent of the
unvaccinated population,” said
Queens resident Adreana Rodriguez,
who joined a small
group of anti-vaxxers outside
the City Council’s Broadway
office building to protest Hoylman
and his colleagues.
Mayor de Blasio also disagreed
that religion contributes
significantly to immunization,
and at a press conference earlier
this month claimed the
problem lies in anti-vaccination
rhetoric, which eliminating
the exemption would not
affect, according to a Politico
report.
“Just listen to my logic
pattern here,” de Blasio
said. “Somehow ending the
religious exemptions doesn’t
address what happened here
where the anti-vaxxers convinced
people not to get vaccinations.
That’s the root of
the problem.”
Hoylman, however, argued
that unscrupulous anti-vaxxers
are taking advantage of
the religious exemption to enroll
their unvaccinated kids in
school, despite their objections
being rooted in junk science
— not faith.
“The religious exemption is
a loophole,” said the Manhattan
lawmaker. “It is masking
someone’s conspiracy against
vaccinations, and it needs to
be closed.”
Ironically enough, a proponent
of the religious exemption
protesting outside Hoylman’s
press conference Tuesday said
it must not be repealed precisely
because it’s a loophole
for anti-vaxxers, claiming it’s
the only recourse that parents
— who attribute developmental
disorders, including autism,
in their children to recent vaccinations
— have after they’re
denied the medical exemption
by doctors.
“It’s their only loophole
right now,” said Flatbush resident
Carolyn Battino. “It protects
anyone who says to themselves,
‘I have a reason.’ ”

“Those who bring sunshine
into the lives of others cannot
keep it from themselves,”
she said.
The do-gooder is looking
for help to host this year’s
summer dinner and she is
eager to hear from any charitable
Brooklyn Heights resident
who would be able to
offer up their back yard for
the event, along with other
people willing and able to
help her organize the gathering
and spread the word
through social media.
Anyone willing to open
their home, donate a venue
for the event, or willing to
help organize the party can
