Schall and under his auspices in the department of otolaryngology of the Harvard Medical School, Dr. Lempert outlined and directed a research investigation of the possibility of preventing osteogenetic closure of a fenestra newly created in the vestibule of the labyrinth of the rhesus monkey. All the surgical operations with the exception of those of experiment II A were performed by Dr. Meltzer. The surgical operations of experiment IIA were performed by Drs. Lempert and Meltzer. The tissues were prepared in the Mosher Laboratory of the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and in the Lempert Institute of Otology, under the direction of Dr. Dorothy Wolff, who made the histologic reports. The investigation was divided into three separate phases: Phase I was a study of the three individual histologic layers of the freshly cut bony rim of the newly created vestibular fenestra of the
