Plopped into a stainless-steel bowl, the polyp was rushed to the pathology laboratory only a couple of doors away. There, Dr. Lewis B. Woolner (Mayo) and Dr. James Humes (Navy) swiftly cut the main part in two and sprayed one half with a substance to deep-freeze it instantly. Then, with a microtome, they cut off slices only hundredths of a millimeter thick. Examined under the microscope, all the cells appeared to be normal; the polyp was noncancerous. All this took only 17 minutes...
...oldest rivalries; at Cambridge, Mass. Senior Halfback Bobby Leo rammed 1 yd. for one TD, sprinted 51 yds. for another; that plus a 29-yd. field goal gave the Cantabs their best season (8 wins, 1 loss) since 1920. Purdue assured itself of a trip to the Rose Bowl by clobbering Indiana 51-6, and U.C.L.A. likely came up Roses as well by upsetting Southern California 14-7. Surprise of the week: Texas Tech (3-6 this year) brought down sixth-ranked Arkansas...

There were Alabama's Rose Bowl champions of 1935, with Dixie Howell throwing to Don Hutson-who later went on to the Green Bay Packers and set five National Football League pass-receiving records that still stand today...
...population engaged in subsistence, peasant-style farming, the average annual income is a scant $140 a year?far less than that of Japan and Formosa. Population growth is among the world's highest: Catholic-dominated Filipinos add 1,000,000 mouths a year to the rice bowl (3.2%). Simultaneously, the economic-growth rate is a minimal 4.2% . The rice yield is scandalously low. Of the world's top 20 major rice-producing nations, the Philippines rank ahead of only Cambodia, Laos and Nepal...
