Boy, 6, Brings Outside World To Mother, Father Washington UJ5 Six-year-Id Tommy Beierle has the un usual task of being bis parents' link with the outside world. He is the voice and ears for his mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. Ferdinand Beierle. They can neither speak nor hear. They talk in sign language and before Tommy's birth had a difficult time communicating with neigh bors. When Tommy was born his parents began teaching him sign language. They did not know he had normal speech and hearing faculties. When Tommy was two he heard a neighbor's radio and began imitating the sounds. His parents became aware that he was making noises and sent him to a play school, where he learned to speak like the other children. Now Tommy can communicate both in sign language and by regular speech. He acts as the family interpreter. He orders the groceries, does the talking when there are other chores, and inter prets when friends visit his fam ily at Temple Trailer Village, Va. Tommy also translates for the visiting nurse who helps Mrs. Beierle with his infant sister, Diane. When Diane cries Tommy tells his mother. Aside from being the family translator, Tommy lives a normal first-grader's life. He tells his mother what happens in school and reads his homework with her help. Tommy also assists around the house while his father works as a machinist at the naval gun factory. He helps set the table, make his bed, and holds a dustpan for his mother.
