Koopman, who, as a result of an operation for mastoiditis, suffered what the doctors call ‘‘complete mot- or an sensory aphasia.” - In every day language, he could neither speak nor understand speech. His hospital record showed that before the opera- tion, Koopman spoke English ‘with- out an accent. | After his operation he could utter a few German phrases, but his English was completely for- gotten.. He could neither name nor locate the parts of his body. “Show me your arm,” would say his teacher. Koopman would look vaguely around him. Koopman's training was started at U. S. Army General Hospital No. 11, at Cape May, N. J., under an expert teacher, Miss May E. Thornton.
