university and winning foot

ate a good word.
True, one of Henry Luce's
subeditors could not resist
captioning the piece, "Babes,
Brutes and Ole Miss"
The term, "babes," not used
in the article itself, refers to
the notably lovely young la
dies Of Ole Miss, the univer-
sity. They are an inspirational
force in the gridiron perfor-
nance of the young gentle
men, not referred to as
"brutes" anywhere in the
text.
The article tells how the
university's football coach,
Johnny Vaught, has nodded
great teams without any sac
rifice of academic standards.
Vaught's policy, a radical
departure in the world of foot
ball recruitment, is to man
his teams largely with the
products of Mississippi High
schools.
There are two good reasons
for this, he feels. One, Missis-

Future Chest Surgery

An Army general predicts a
bright future for chest surgery,
including replace ment of
organs instead of repair.
It wasn't until .1947 that
safe chest surgery really

general of the Army's Medical

And it has only begun. he
told the 67th annual convention
Of the Association Of Military
Surgeons, which closed a three
day session at the Mayf1ower
