A case of sexual perversion is presented to illustrate the dynamics of altered body ego experiences. The altered body ego experiences are considered to be a 'continuum of regression' with accompanying somatic and visceral phenomena. The tongue is considered as an organizer of the visceral body ego and functions as an Anlage for many ego and superego functions. The eyes and hands function as organizers in a similar manner. The author offers the hypothesis that perceptual organizers are formed by body ego nuclei which, in turn, are further influenced by the motor organizers, eyes, hands, and tongue in the final elaboration of whole object and self-representations.

As a ward administrator the author noticed the regularity with which schizophrenic patients brought a pair of doctors or other personnel to disagreement through splitting them into a purely good and purely bad object. The mothers of these patients were prone to do the same, and a history could regularly be traced of the mother's encouraging pure love for herself from the patient while projecting their mutual hatred onto a third object such as the father. In treatment it was concluded that the patient must project these split feelings on at least two persons who, if they pass the test and refuse to be split from one another, start a healing process eventually internalized and followed by healing of object and self-representation.

Community-Centered Psychiatric Intervention: A Pilot Project in the 13th Arrondissement, Paris
MICHAEL A. WOODBURY M.D.1 and MARGARITA M. WOODBURY
1 Director of community services, the Psychiatric Institute of Washington, D. C.
The authors describe a system of intensive psychiatric services they developed to deal with the emergencies and difficult cases in a catchment area of 200,000 people in a low socioeconomic section of Paris. Mobile emergency and visiting teams including "indigenous" homemakers focus their intervention on the family of the designated patient in its home setting. The dynamics and techniques of home visiting are outlined as well as the process of "metabolism of anxiety" in the team that enables it to function as a therapeutic small group in its encounter with patients, families, and social networks.

Object Relations in the Psychiatric Hospital
Michael A. Woodbury
I have described elsewhere (1964) the seven-year study of a psychiatric ward conducted at Chestnut Lodge. In summary, a total of fifty psychotic female patients, mostly schizophrenic with similar types and degree of illness, were treated and studied in great detail over a seven-year period during which all of them were in individual psycho-analytically oriented psychotherapy and under my administration. The observations on the interactions between all the members of this community (staff, patients and their families) were then analysed retrospectively in order to detect any repetitive patterns with more generalized theoretical implications.
The history of this ward clearly divided itself into three eras, each with its own distinctive philosophy of treatment on the part of the staff, and different prevalent symptoms on the part of the patients:
We found a correlation between a milieu emphasizing limit-setting through the threat of exclusion or abandonment and the preponderance
