Alpine School District L'eeds Used Hearing Aids The Alpine School District is looking for used or discarded hearing aids to be used to create a hearing bank for children in Alpine schools, according ac-cording to Richard Mecham, district Coordinator of Speech and Hearing. Tim Humphrey, Alpine District Audiologist, says the hearing aids would be used by hearing impaired students who cannot afford new hearing aids or by children who are forced to go without aids while theirs are being repaired. "There are those children whose hearing is so profoundly impaired that they need hearing aids all the time. When one breaks, it means that the child only has one hearing aid and nothing to hear with," Humphrey said. "Hearing aid banks are not new," he continued, "several universities have similar banks." The audiologist explained that Alpine School District is experiencing some problems. There are some 40 hard-of-hearing students in the district. When, for some reason, their hearing aids need repairs, the students run into difficulties. Humphrye says the most common type of aid worn by the students is a behind-the-ear aid. It has an ear mold which fits over the ear and a tube which fits the back of the ear. A donor may claim a tax deduction on their contribution. The hearing aid bank for Alpine District will be located at the district office. Anyone interested in donating or who would like more information should contact Humphrey at 785-6395 or Mecham at the Alpine School District Office, 756-9671. Beta Lambda president, as chairperson.
