Sir Richard Paget, 78-year- old British lawyer and physicist, has developed a now system of hand gestures whereby child deaf from birth will think and express himself in terms of words produced by the gestures."

British producers have demon- strated their talent and taste, but they lack facilities to enable any substantial increase beyond the approximately 60 major- alms planned for this year.

That number represents less than 15 percent of the annual turnover In the nation's 4,500 theatres-of which nearly 1.000 change their double-feature programmes three
