Ophthalmists at the hospital now are awaiting the removal of band- ages from the right eye of Bert Ferguson, 32. to see whether what they consider one of the most dar- ing and delicate operations on the human eye has been successful.

Ferguson. an inmate of the Home for" the Blind, has lost his left eye 11nd the vision of the right one was impaired.by a cataract. Char- les E. Greenblatt, 32, was discov- ered to be ‘suffering from an eye tumor. necessitating the removal of
