first time today by q French ear

sessions at the Statler Hotel.

DR.. Aubert declared that still
a different modification Of the
instrument may be used when
the ear drum is intact and the
deafness apparently caused by
something in the middle or inner
ear. This is accomplished by
placing the vinyl sponge in con-
tact with the ear drum or its
bony framework. causing the
transmission of sound waves by
bypassing the injured part Of the
ear.
DR.. Aubert declared that the
advantages Of this hearing aid
over AL other auditory aids"
include Its tiny size, the alb
sence Of wires to a generating
apparatus, the fact that 1t is
concealed in the ear cavities
and 1t has an indefinitely pro-
longed period Of operation"
Some doctors also noted that
the complete concealment Of
such a hearing aid might be a
valuable psychological factor for
persons who are at least par
tally deaf but who are too
sensitive TO wear conventional
aids.

get tickets to an Old Vic per-

fortnight's visit of the company

1t is the Old Vic's enthusiastic
conviction as a result of this
its first experience here. that
all future Washington engage
ments must be longer, quite
possibly four weeks.
Also in the thinking of the
company's management is that
it would be an excellent idea
to- start all later American visits
with a Washington engagement.
Over a four-weeks booking of
a four-play repertory. it would
be possible of course to schedule
each production for a week. For
which the present clamor for
