...four under women's par), hit the halfway mark tied for second with Wiffi Smith, 20, a broad-based, freckle-nosed newcomer to the pro ranks from St. Clair, Mich. Just one stroke in front, San Diego's Mickey Wright, 22, had a 36-hole total...
...tense third round last week, Patty Berg dropped temporarily to third, two strokes behind 19-year-old Amateur Anne Quast, one stroke back of Mickey Wright. But on the final round the old pro stuck a shamrock in her hat and hit men's par on every hole except three. On those she shot birdies. She finished with a flashy 69. Her 72-hole total of 296 made her Titleholders champ, three strokes in front of faltering Anne Quast. It pushed her 1957 winnings to $3,863, highest of the lady pros...
...present in a child's heart or great vessels at birth (estimated annual U.S. incidence: 30,000 to 80,000 births). The great vessels (pulmonary artery and aorta) may be transposed, not harmful during fetal life but usually fatal soon after birth. Often there is a hole in the wall (septum) between the auricles or between the ventricles; there may be a hole permitting all four heart chambers to communicate. The aorta may override (straddle) both right and left ventricles. The neck (infundibulum) of the right ventricle may be narrowed, retarding movement of blood to the lungs...
Bailey made another contribution (January 1952) with an operation to close a hole in the wall between the auricles. The right auricle is bigger than it needs to be and is soft and pliable. So Bailey pressed the outer wall down over the septum, covering the hole in it, and joined the two together with a circular line of stitches. This made the right auricle into a doughnut-shaped chamber, with excellent results for the patient. Says Bailey with professional pride: "Technically, this is the best accomplishment I have to my credit, because it's so nearly perfect...
...more pleasant site could have been found for such a tournament. The Broadmoor is not really a resort; it is a pleasure city, and one that is completely self-sufficient. Not very many resorts can offer their guests a hockey rink, a zoo, a polo field, a 27 hole golf course, a bar ensconced in a greenhouse, along with all the other obvious facilities. And above all this towers Pike's Peak, and the Rockies with their magnificent scenery...
