About Vicki Morgan's death, however, far too little is clear. No one disputes that she was clubbed to death in her bed with a baseball bat last July. Her roommate of three weeks, Marvin Pancoast, an emotionally disturbed Hollywood habitue and avowed homosexual, walked into a Los Angeles police station and confessed, "I did it. I killed Vicki."

The total included his $40,000 salary for the remaining two years of his contract, plus a $20,000 bonus for bowing out. There are no greener pastures open to 4-18 coaches, however, so Pancoast turned down the offer. Said he: "I'm the head coach of Vanderbilt until I'm told otherwise."

...causes not directly related to cancer. Doctors feel that the betatron has shown remarkable promise in brain cancer; of six cases treated, only one has died. More apparent is the effect of the betatron's massive doses of high-voltage X rays on a less common malignancy called Pancoast's tumor.
