...quality of the performance, major credit was due to two U.S. generals who went in with their men: Major General William M. ("Bud") Miley, commander of the 17th Airborne, taking his outfit into combat for the first time, and Major General Matthew Bunker Ridgway, veteran airborne fighter and commander of the Airborne Army's XVIII Corps.

...five cents more cache, and the surfaces are the same miserable Decca surfaces. In addition, three titles are duplicated in the two albums though the performances are different: "East St. Louis Toodle-Oo," "The Mooche," and "Mood Indigo," The first two should be in every collection because of Bubber Miley's fabulous growl trumpet...

The new treatment was presented by Drs. George Miley and R. E. Seidel of Philadelphia's Hahnemann Medical College before the Pan-American Homeopathic Congress in Cincinnati...

Two-thirds of Dr. Miley's asthma patients "have shown very definite improvement...
