Recalls War Case. k a November 1945," Mrs. fetalis, a young G I. bride, n, whose husband was still in the South Pacific, was brought in for photographs. Her record, when she entered the hospital, stated that a tumorous growth, thought to be malignant, had formed in the ins of the right eye and therefore the eye should be removed. The surgeon In charge at the New York Eye and Ear infirmary was not in full accord with this diagnosis and did not feel that this patient should lose an eye without further study. He ordered photographs taken of the condition every month, carefully measuring the size and comparing with the previous plates. At the end of a year the growth had not expanded in any direction, these measure' ments proved. During the following year pictures were taken every two months and careful checks were made against the first plates. It has been fully determined, up to the present time, that the growth is not malignant, and this grateful young woman still has her eye today." Movies taken in color and used for teaching purposes are a part of Mrs. Browns daily work. These films of rare and delicate opera' tions performed at the infirmary are being used to guide and teach a new generation of eye surgeons throughout the Americas and as far away as India and the Philippines. In addition to routine work, classes in medical photography are conducted for graduate students in ophthalmology. Thus the young specialists who train here can take with them to the small communities throughout the country a knowledge of ophthalmic photography that will help them trace the progress of eye diseases and their treatments, thus many times saving the sight of an eye otherwise lost.

This should be simple enough. Hundreds of track coaches covering the vast athletic map of the United Stales soon will start getting their stars in shape. The main Idea will be to get the Olympic possibilities or probabilities ready for the Intercollegiate and the A.A.U. games. "I dont know who the best men are today, Cromwell admitted "Neither does any other coach. But they soon will be popping up all over the map a few of them great, some of them good, others not so good.

Here we have a combination that demands both speed and stamina, especially when you get down In the low class. But how many know that It has been just 40 years since an entry from the United States ever won this major event in Olympic competition? Ihe last American to finish In front was Mel Sheppard, in London, In 1908, Since that time the British, the Finns or some other foreign nation has taken over the job of mopping up in this long distance event. Back in 1938, In the games at Berlin, we seemed to have a shining chance with Glenn Cunningham on the job. But Cunningham couldn't handle the fast flyer from New Zealand, who set a new Olympic record This was Jack Lovelock, who ignored time and yet set a record. He ran only fast enough to four-minu- win.
