The Jewish community center of Garden City, nearby suburb, will appeal to the State Supreme Court next week against a village zoning board decision refusing the center permission to use its three-story building set on one and one-third acres as a synagogue.

The board of directors of the center, at a meeting yesterday, decided to fight the village board’s decision through the courts. Garden City has 1,200 Jews, but no synagogues among its nine houses of worship.
