DEAF WILL “SEE” VOICES
NEW TELEPHONE AID Recd. 7 p.m. New York, Nov. 8. The Bell Telephone Laboratories have demonstrated photographing the human voice and other sounds and their reproduction immediately on a screen, enabling a deaf student of a system of sound signs to repeat the spoken word correctly, whereas, previously, he made strange noises in an effort to speak. The demonstrators say the device is not ready for the market, and the surface is just scratched, but they are confident it will go far toward new things. It is possible the system will be applicable to the telephone, enabling the deaf to “see” the words of a speaker the other end.
