Artificial Ear Made
By Omaha Surgeons fol
Head Of Young lowan

Anthony Robinet, q years old,
living in Hospers, Ia, had an arti.
fetal ear fastened to his head in
Omaha yesterday to replace one cut
off in an accident eight years ago.
This is the first case Of facial recon-
struction to be performed here.
DR.. George NJ. Boehler, former
member of Nebraska Base Hospital
No. 40 modelled the ear. He studied
facial reconstruction in Queens hos
pital, London. In modelling the ear
he first reproduced the natural ear
in wax ard made a mould into
which the composition in the new
ear was poured.
DR.. ]. P. Lord fastened the ear to
the head by means of platinum
wires concealed in openings in the
head. The artificial ear is difficult
to detect so nearly is it reproduced
in color and form. Doane Powell,
Bee cartoonist, tinted the ear to re-
produce the translucent appearance.
