About the time Hal Mackey was sending out his S. O. S. for financial aid in the recent and highly successful Alumni Fund, this operator was baring his lower abdomen to the knife in the operating room of St. Mary's Hospital in this city. After a few days of teetering on the brink, the hostile bacilli gave up the battle, the ticker decided to keep in action and recovery set in. It has persisted to this date with no more serious effect upon the patient than the loss of a few non-co-operative feet of that stretch of pipeline known to the trade as "Bowler Boulevard."
