Tailspin Treatment Helps Deaf.
Mitchell Field, N. J., Feb. 19.-Herbert R. Olstead, who is taking the airplane tailspin treatment for deafness, reported today, after a 16,000-foot plunge with Capt. L. N. Keesling, that he could hear a little, and that the ringing in his head had ceased. It was his second flight.
Joseph Kline, of Brooklyn, also accompanied a pilot on one of the hair-raising sweeps today, then hurried to his home to test his radio set. He reported being able to hear from the head phones of a three-tube radio set. Army medical officers a month ago declared him chronically deaf and incurable.
