BMT Elevated Line, running about one mile from Sutphin Blvd. west to 127th SU has been turned over to the city by the Transit Authority for eventual demolition. Councilman Morton Povman (D-Kew Gardens Hills) said he has been informed by city officials that the demolition of the superstructure and the reconstruction of Jamaica Ave. below the elevated line will cost almost S1.6 million. A preliminary design for demolition and reconstruction work will be ready in January and be made available for public comment The actual tearing down of the elevated line, which was constructed in 1917, is scheduled to begin in mid-1990.

Transit officials have said that they expect the new Archer Ave. Subway Line to be in operation by that time. The elevated line now ends at 121st St. in Richmond Hill, and a spur leads into the Archer Ave. Subway from about 127th St.

"This development." Povman said, "is a positive step forward in the re-development of the Downtown Jamaica commercial district and the mixed residential-commercial re-vitalization of the Richmond Hill East area." He added. "Local land values should rise and investors will be more interested in that section."

The session will be held on the fourth floor of the college Student Union. The award to Shenker.

said Gail Uellendahl. conference chairman, is in recognition of his "work in establishing and supporting a program for deaf adults (in LaGuardia Community College) and for his leadership role in advocating for students with disabilities." Shenker's college, she noted, is the only one in the city that provides support services required to make a full range of college study accessible to deaf persons. The services include sign language interpreters and counselors. The 12-year-old program pre-! sently gives 160 deaf students a chance to attend both credit and non- credit programs.
