...undertake the difficult job of replacing Al Dillingham, Harvard's long range goal maker who graduated last June, Peter Jay has ridden into the number two position for an apparently permanent stay. Hampered early this winter by a tender knee, and riding through all the games with the joint well padded, Jay has nevertheless managed to make himself formidable to his opponents. He sustained another injury to the same leg, and will be out of the last Commonwealth Polo Association game before the team goes on the read to West Point for their initial intercollegiate encounter. It is possible that...
Shelved Hips. Dislocation of the hip is apt to recur when the muscles which hold the hip bone into the shallow hip socket have been weakened. Injury or infantile paralysis will do this. Dr. Marion Beckett Howorth of Manhattan invented a way of overcoming the slipping of the joint. He cuts through the flesh at the hip, lays bare the joint. Then he carefully breaks the part of the pelvic bone which forms the upper edge of the hip socket. The loosened piece of bone he bends down and wedges securely with bone grafts. After healing, the downturned chunk...
Shoulder Strap. Once a person has dislocated a shoulder he must ordinarily be careful not to reach too roughly, for probably one-third of dislocated shoulders repeat the accident. Dr. Toufick Nicola of Manhattan prevents the repetition by cutting part of one of the tendons of the shoulder joint (biceps tendon) and drilling a hole through the upper portion of the arm bone (humerus). Dr. Nicola then laces the cut biceps tendon through the hole and fixes it at the other end of the joint. The tendon thus effectively straps the loose joint together...
Hips at Birth. Usually it is difficult to know whether a baby's hip is out of joint. One way to tell is to study the folds in the skin of the thighs. If one thigh is creased more on the inner side than the other, the creased side is dislocated. If both thighs are deeply creased, both hips are probably dislocated. Another method is to put the baby flat on its back and bend its legs at the hips and knees so that its feet are flat on the table or bed. If one hip has been...
From the Blue. Just a month ago President David Sarnoff and Board Chairman James G. Harboard of Radio Corporation of America announced in a joint statement that their directors had abandoned all ideas for a capital readjustment. Since a recapitalization plan would presumably deal largely with accumulated dividends, Radio's preferred stockholders slumped back for another patient wait and their stock slumped with them...
