But that was not how the script read when Dr. Sam Sheppard made his debut against Wild Bill Scholl in a charity match in Waverly, Ohio. Seven minutes into the match Dr. Sam coolly jammed two fingers into Wild Bill's mouth and expertly pressed the mandibular nerve, which lies in the tender area under the tongue.

...White Rose. Most touching and unsung of all were the children and youths who resisted the Nazis. Helmut Huebener, 17, was guillotined for writing some 20 pamphlets denouncing the Nazi destruction of Warsaw and Rotterdam. Hans and Sophie Scholl, a handsome brother and sister who seemed outwardly to be the outdoor-loving prototypes of Hitler youth, organized an underground at the University of Munich. Under the romantic name of the White Rose, they authored pamphlets eloquently attacking the regime. After one particular Nazi outrage, they openly distributed the leaflets around the university, even scattered them from rooftops in the vain...
