The Hulthen-Kohn variational method was applied to the elastic scattering of electrons by hydrogen atoms. The trial function used was of a nonseparable form. which allowed for the virtual excitation of the 2s and 3s states. and contained a scaling parameter which was allowed to vary. The resulting scattering lengths and S. P, and D singlet and triplet phase shifts were compared with the results of other calculations, and reasons were given for expecting them to be of improved accuracy. (auth)
