Cincinnati catcher, Bubbles" Har-

The opinion of the leag executive,
expressed today, is expected to have
considerable effect in settling the con-

MONTREAL, Quebec, June 3.-Tak-
ing the principle that there is some
relation between the sense Of touch
and hearing, DIR. Max A. Goldstein,
director of the Central Institute for
the Deaf. at st. Louis. Tuesday DEM
onstrated how the sense of touch,
which is applied to the blind in the
Interpretation of Braille printing, may
be applied to the deaf. The demon
stration was before the American
Laryngological, Pathological and Oc.
tological Convention here.
Taking for the demonstration a
young deaf girl, DR.. Goldstein used
a megaphone. stretching an ordinary
wet paper over it to make dia-
phragm, in which sounds were ut
tered BY her sense of touch the girl
analyzed the sounds produced by the
human voice through her finger tips,
and then reproduced them.
AS rapidly as the normal person
receives the sounds through his ears
the girl received the sensation through
her fingers. she felt what a phono-
graph needle feels and interpreted it
in sound" it was stated.
The system is still in the expert
mental stage, DR.. Goldstein stated.
