The Shoucri's interpretation of the contour integral arising within the framework of the Young-Rubinowicz model of diffraction phenomena is considered. Crucial hypothetical experiment intended to prove the Shoucri’s interpretation is discussed. It is shown that the initial Young's idea on the nature of diffraction formalized by Rubinowicz possesses undoubted advantages in respect to the Shoucri's interpretation is being undergone the direct experimental verification.
