The wrong man from Coney Island is coming here to strut his stuff for the benefit of the Daughters of Miriam, the enlightenment of the community and in the interests of sweet charity.
The “Mighty Atom.” sometimes known as Joseph Greenstein, will bend steel bars on his nose, break steel chains with his teeth, drive a nail through a three-inch board with one blow, and perform other Herculean feats. If they were available the “Mighty Atom” would pull ten-ton trucks loaded with rolls of paper by his hair and hold back airplanes traveling 150 miles per hour. (That’s his story.)
Greenstein the mighty is five feet live inches tall and weighs one ###indred and forty-eight pounds.
The program will be held in the “Y” Community Center Wednesday night.
