By BOB BORM NEW YORK. Jack Zlvlc's profession profes-sion is prlze-figMIng His ambition is to do lightweight champion; Hay-Da Hay-Da you don't admire his taste, but anyhow any-how that's the job he cut out for him self and that Is why he has just let some surgeons cut him up! That's part of the price he has paid lo gain his goal. "I guess you've got to pay something some-thing for anything you want," says Zlvlc. He is only 18. b'tt he represented America In his class at the last I Olympic games. After his return 'from abroad, his shoulder was pulled 'out of Joint In a l isketball game. This injury apparently healed, but every ev-ery time he fought the shoulder again came out of joint. "You'll havo to quit the ring!" said his friends. "I won't," said Zlvlc, with grit. So a novel operation was decided upon by Lr. Y. Q I'ralick. whom he consulted- This operation was performed per-formed by Dr. Fralick and Dr. John 11. Bchall, assisted by Dr. F H. Piatt and Dr. F. B. I'ierson. 'The operation would have been i comparatively simple." says Dr Fralick. Fra-lick. "If wo had been able to cut directly di-rectly to the seat of the trouble. Buti this would have meant cutting parts' of muscles which had to be kepi Intact In-tact if Zlvlc were to continue his ring career So we hud to adopt other methods." The operation wa9 successful. But Zlvlc must undergo days of pain in the hospital while the wounds are healing. Then It will tako several months, with systematic exercise, to restore the arm to full usefulness. Would you undergo as much rather than turn aside from a chosen career'' |
