...year history of the papacy has there been a clearer example of the life-giving powers of devotion to piety and duty (though there were longer-lived Popes) than Pius XII. Though he had been severely ill several times, and was eventually found to have a hiatus hernia (TIME, Dec. 27, 1954), he functioned with full efficiency well beyond his 80th birthday and until the strokes that swiftly killed him (see RELIGION...

Professor Guerard's course in "Forms of the Modern Novel" played to capacity crowds in 1956, and there is every indication that it will draw as well next fall, after a year's hiatus.

...Digestion. At the hiatus. Dr. Swan pulled the jejunum over, made an opening in its side, and stitched it to the mouth of the stomach. What distinguished his technique from similar opera tions for this purpose was that he was careful to hook up with the cardia, part of the valve which keeps acid stomach juices from percolating back up toward the mouth.
