The work of Gau and Macek on large-angle inelastic electron-hydrogen scattering in the unrestricted Glauber approximation is extended to electron- helium scattering. ''Unrestricted'' in this context means that the additional approximation of purely transverse linear-momentum transfer is not made. Once again, at large angles for 1 $sup 1$$S$$sub 0$ $Yields$ 2 $sup 1$$P$$sub 1$ collision- induced transitions the electron-nucleus interaction is found to dominate and has a q$sup -4$ behavior in the differential cross section. Further, the orientation parameter O$sub 1$/sub -/) is calculated.
