phia, where better equipment is avail
able for the operation.
Children's Hospital Is hard pressed to
provide equipment In constant demand,
with little money left for that used
only occasionally. !
A two-plane microscope, DR.. Leech
said, is needed for delicate operations
to remove foreign particles from the
air passages.
Other physicians called In on the
case are DR.. Edgar L. Copeland and DR..
Boyce r. Bolton. Pneumonia and the
fact that the screw is imbedded deep In
q tiny air passage make removal op-
Grafton with bronchoscope impossible
at present.
The outcome Of the case rests on
whether the child can recover suff1-
GENTLY from pneumonia in the next
week or so to undergo the removal op-

are available to purchase two-plane

child demonstrates the need for this
equipment, q need no less urgent be-
cause it arises only occasionally
