'The ova were in the lower part of the 
middle third of the oviduct, some in the 
8-, some in the 10-cell stage. 
The ruptured follicles were moderately 
distended. 
In the right ovary there Were seven un- 
ruptured follicles of -072 331 840 mm. 3 , 
of which three Were degenerate. 
In the left ovary there Were two un-
