Recent results by Crawford and Messel on the development of showers in lead by the Monte Carlo method are used to estimate the energy resolution of total energy absorption scintillation shower counters. It is probable that slight improvements in energy resolution over existing counters can be obtained by using 15 radiation lengths in the direction of the incident particle and sampling the shower after every 110 radiation length.
