JAY HENSLEY PHOTO Hearing Aids Presented The Green Valley-Mars Hill Optimist Club recently purchased a new pair of hearing aids for Terry Wheeler, sixth-grade stu dent at Mars Hill Elementary School. The club organized and sponsored a golf tournament to raise money for the aids. Pic tured are Shiley Metcalf, Terry's teacher; A.C. Honeycutt, president of the club; Terry Wheeler; Fred Norton, vice presi dent and chairman of the fund-raising project; and, Frances Cosgrove, speech-language pathologist for Madison County schools. Terry's new hearing aids can be attached to an FM system for use in the classroom or in speech therapy. He wears a small receiver clipped to his waist and his teacher wears a matching transmitter with a tiny microphone. By pushing a switch, Terry can tune out all classroom sounds and hear only what his teacher is saying. Pushing another switch allows him to listen and take part in classroom discussions. The system can be disconnected and left in the classroom when not in use. The new hearing aids, hidden behind Terry's ears, replaced old, inadequate ones which he has worn for several years.
