POLICE LIFT BAN
ON POOL SKATING
Ice Found Sufficiently Firm
to Permit Enjoyment
of Sport.

Old man Winters grip on the re-
f1ecting pool of the Lincoln Memorial
was firm enough today and the United
States Park Police issued the long
awaited announcement that skating on
the pool would be permitted.
But the skaters didn't wait for the
permission. Nearly score of them
were on the pool last night and there
were no casualties. Many gathered on
the pool this morning to take advantage
Of one of the rarest of sports in the
Capital.
From the Office of Lieut.. Col. q. S.
Grand, Sd, director of public buildings
and public parks, came the announce
ment this morning that the pool would
be inspected this afternoon. and. If
weather conditions warranted, the pool
would be flooded after the skaters have
departed tonight, to get better sur
face for the skaters.
There is a thin layer Of snow on the
pool at present. from yesterdays light
fall and the skating is not of the best.
Weather forecasts will be watched care
fully by the park police. to see that the
skaters get the best possible attention
and at the same time to see that the
skaters are kept off the pool in case the
cold weather should abate and the ice
become dangerous.
The ice this morning was from to
inches thick, and was regarded as per-
fectly safe for the skaters. A close
check on he thickness Of the ice will be
kept. At one point yesterday afternoon
the ice had been broken. but this was
sufficiently frozen this morning to hold
several men.
With the forecast for slightly colder
weather, the park police expected hum
dreds to turn out for the skating this
afternoon and tonight.

SMALL AMOUNT OF GAME
BAGGED BY DUCK HUNTERS

Duck hunters. whose guns were
silenced yesterday at close Of the 1929
season, bagged an unusually small
amount of game. though great flocks
of migratory birds haunted open waters
of the Chesapeake Bay ana Its tribu-
taries.
Overmuch fair weather, according to
the best sporting abilis, induced the
birds to remain shyly in the ofing,
where they refused to venture within
gunshot of coverts along shore.
Hunters of adjacent communities
supplied Washington's tables with
thousands of rabbits during the season
past, the price per rabbit going at one
time as low as Is cents. This price
later went to IS cents as rabbits be-
came scarce.

meeting the hearing deficiency in this
early period with every mechanical aid
possible.
Modern psychology attaches funda-
mental Importance to the linguistic
processes as important factors in de-
yelopment. When we realize that the
ordinary child at the age of 6 years
has a vocabulary of between 5000 and
5000 words and uses every form OF SEN
tence, every part of speech and has the
elementary mechanics of the language
pretty thoroughly worked out; when we
further realize that the child OF years
is, in comparison with the adult. ylr-
tually at the completion Of his language
development except for the addition of
more words, we begin to realize some
thing of the handicap which the deaf
child has borne.
Difference in School Material Cited.
"The public schools receive, at the
age Of 6 in the hearing child, one who
already is very far advanced In the
basic manipulation of linguistic proc
esses. The school for the deaf, taking
a child at the age of 8, receives child
who has made virtually no progress and
at the best adds but a few words year
to the child's vocabulary. in comparison

normal child at the age Of 2, and 4.
There seems to be general agreement
that the deaf child Is apathetic and
listless as compared with the average
hearing child There are host of prob
lens upon which We have relatively
little information in regard to audito-
rily defective children"
Studies of the play activities of deaf
chiIdren are YYr0nOSnd uartiy hecaliSa

portant factor Of education. 1t also is
proposed to study the lives of deaf chill
dren in their own homes to see IL some
method OF procedure can be worked
out for parents.
The work Is being carried on under
the direction of the National Research

BILL URGES CHANGES
IN PARKWAY PROJECT
Measure for Rock Greek and Poto-
mac Connection Reported by
Senate Committee.


Slight changes in the boundaries Of
the Rock Greek and Potomac connect
ing parkway would be authorized by
bill favorably reported by Senator
Smoot from the Senate Public Buildings
and Grounds committee. A similar
measure is awaiting action in the House.
It has been found, the committee re-
ported, that to reach the external boun-
daries Of the parkway at certain points,
expensive properties would have to be
acquired. These parcels are at such a
distance from the bluffs bordering Rock
Greek that 1t is not deemed essential
to acquire them. 1t also has been found
that there are certain other tracts not
included in the present taking lines.
which 1t is important to acquire to
carry out the parkway plan.
The bill would authorize the Rock
Creek and Potomac Parkway Commits
sion to sell certain small areas and ac-
quire certain other parcels, without
changing the ultimate cost Of the
project.
