PIKE COUNTY NEWS FOUNDERS ' WEEK, PIKEVILLE COLLEGE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION OCTOBER 15, 1957 At the meeting of the Pikeville College Alumni Association for its annual round-up at the Chapel of the old building on College Street, those present were delighted by selections from the scrap book of Edward Palmer. Edward, who is a graduate of the Academy class of 1937, has made it a hobby to clip every news item he finds in which mention is made of any graduate of the College. From the huge amount of material he has, we have selected these few items: Big League Star Crashes Society Detroit, Mich., April 15, 1946. — That noted baseball star, Stud Johnson, sent a ball through Lady Vanderbilt s car window yesterday while practicing for the opening game next Friday. The lady was much disturbed at the accident, but her anger faded when the handsome hero hastened to offer his apology. We learned that the interview ended with the lady ' s accepting the player ' s offer of a box at the game to see him play. Noted Doctor Honored Vienna, Austria, August 8. 1950 — The famous W. A. Sullivan, M.D., native of Pike County, Kentucky, U. S. A., flew here from Switzerland today to receive the highest award ever con- ferred upon a Doctor of Medicine for his con- tribution to the control of that dread disease of childhood, infantile paralysis. Doctor Sul- livan ' s remedy is now accepted by every med- ical society in the world. Opera Star Off High Horse New York City, January 7, 1948. — That pop- ular opera singer, Grace Trivette, who made her Metropolitan debut this season as Mignon, recently came down off her high horse when your correspondent recalled the memory o f her school days by the mention of hot dogs and pickles. Before the interview had ended, Miss Trivette herself told with a nostalgic sigh of the delicious sandwiches she used to make on afternoon hikes with her school friends in the mountains of old Kentucky. Women ' s Clubs Meet Boston, Massachusetts, February 29, 1956. — Today in Boston is being held the annual meet- ing of the National Federation of Women ' s Clubs. The principal speaker for the day is Mrs. Betty Call O ' Hara, a widely recognized authority on child psychology. Mrs. O ' Hara will speak on the subject. The Adolescent Girl and Her High School Problems. Evangelist Establishes New Type of Church Chicago, Illinois, December 18, 1941. — Walter McNeil, outstanding evangelist and former pu- pil of Aimee Semple McPherson, has established a new church which he explains as follows: I have taken it upon myself to depart from tra- dition and establish a church only for the ' airy minded. ' All persons who find the four walls of a church uncomfortable are asked to meet me on Sunday morning at the open air theater in Bowlby Park. New Gun for Navy Washington, D. C. July 6, 1949. — The Sec- retary of the Navy announced yesterday that the Navy Department will immediately begin manufacture of the efficient rapid Are gun in- vented by Captain Peyton Hobson, U. S. N. Captain Hobson follows the career of his fa- mous uncle of Spanish War days. Electrical Shock Wheeling, W. Va., March 8. 1945 — The Presi- dent of the Electrical Engineering Association, Mr. James Campbell Wall. Jr., has just discov- ered a means of bringing persons who have died from electrocution to life again if the operation is applied within forty-eight hours after death. The details of the method are, of course, secret, but it is understood it is a reversal of the current through the body in such a way as to restore life. Another marvel of the discovery is that it renews the youth of the victim by some twenty years. Musician Honored Pikeville, Ky., June 22, 1945. — Last night the ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria was the scene of a select party given in honor of George Hames, the composer of the American Opera Hiawatha, the story of which is based on Longfellow ' s poem and other Indian legends. The new type of music has been received by critics with extravagant praise. World ' s Greatest Dancer Insures Feet New York City. June 21, 1950. — Miss Eloise (Rene de Loupee) Tyson, the greatest and most versatile dancer in the world, today in- sured her tinkling tootsies for $1,111,111.11. Her feet have danced her into fame greater than any other person has ever obtained. Much care is taken that Miss Tyson ' s feet are kept in perfect condition, and it is rumored that huge sums of money are used for that purpose. Page 25
