PHOTO across top, Denver Post Photo by John Sunderland:
A group of people in wheelchairs fills the frame. [Someone has circled certain people's heads and written names by them but the writing is unreadable in this copy of the picture.] Most of them are young, some are not, some are in motorized wheelchairs, some in old fashioned manuals, but everyone has significant disabilities. Everyone is looking intently at the front of the room where the edge of some kind of dias or desk is visible. Many of them have a challenging look in their eyes. They are clearly not happy.

About 140 persons, including some 35 in wheel chairs, attended public hearing of RTD board Tuesday night. Coalition of handicapped persons told of "mercenary" treatment by some private companies engaged in offering them transit services. They asked that buses provided by the RTD be built to accommodate them as well as others, thereby offering some "transportation alternatives for most of Denver's disabled." (SEE STORY ON PAGE 22.)
