Surgeon Tells of
Operation to Give
Women Contours
SAN FRANCISCO, Wl—A Johns I
Hopkins surgeon describes an op-1
eration giving flat-chested women
the large bosoms they crave by
inserting plastic sponge padding.
“We have done the operation in
31 cases,” reported Dr. Milton T.
Edgerton to the American Society
of Plastic and Reconstructive
Surgery convention.
“In 31 the patients described
the result as total satisfaction.
And our ^ psychiatrists were
bowled over by how much these
patients were helped.”
The one woman not completely
happy, said Dr. Edgerton, was
disturbed only because she had
not expanded enough.
“She continued to use falsies
and thus felt she was doubly de
ceitful,” observed Dr. Edgerton,
associate professor of plastic sur
gery at Johns Hopkins School of
Medicine at Baltimore.
He said the surgery should be
employed only in cases of serious
emotional disturbance.
In discussion of Dr. Edgerton’s
paper, Dr. Gustave Aufricht, sur
geon at Lenox Hill Hospital, ^Jew
York City, said he opposed using
the sponge insert material because
it hardens into lumps.
Dr. Aufricht advocated instead
transplanting inside the breast
fatty tissue from elsewhere on
the body.
Red Tide Killing
Fish Off Florida
NAPLES, Florida UPf—The year’s
worst attack of the fish-killing
red tide has hit the Naples area.
Tons of dead fish have been
washed ashore in the past two
days. Much of the area affected is
sparsely inhabited.
The state conservation depart
ment has stepped up its program
of spraying the gulf with copper i
sulphate.
The outbreak has killed more
game fish than any other this sea- |
son and has extended control op-j
erations farther south than previ
ously this year.
Red tide is caused by gymno
dinium brevis, a minute organism
which turns the water muddy red
and poisons fish.
1,400 Marines Finish

ALAMEDA, Calif., UPf—A band

The 1,400 members of the 2nd

Science Centers
In Siberia Are
Being Reinforced
MOSCOW, UPf—1The Soviet Un
ion is heavily reinforcing its sci
entific centers in Siberia, includ
ing expansion of branches under
the Atomic Energy Institute of
Soviet scientists. •
The Communist Party newspa
per Pravda Tuesday published an
account of a general meeting of
the Soviet Academy of Sciences at
which “many Soviet scientists
have expressed a desire to move
into eastern areas of our country
and participate in its scientific
development.”
Pravda reported a speech in
which academician I. V. Kurcha
tov of the Atomic Energy Institute
assigned “highly qualified physi
cists and engineers wTio would
form the main cadres for the In
stitute of Physics in a new Siber
ian scientific center.”
In some sections of Australia,
the annual rate of evaporation is
15 times that of the average rain
fall.
WESTONE SEALS
AND HARDENS
Westone Restores to old floors
their original sleek appearance
and natural color of wood.
It brings a hard finish to a
sealed floor which makes the seal
permanent. It brings a hard film
of protection to waxed floors that
makes fhe wax last 2 to 10 times
as long. To highly porous terrazzo,
tile, composition and marble
floors, it brings a positive binding
action which helps to prevent dis
integration, erosion and decay.
Westone is not a floor oil. It
does not become gummy or sticky.
It is of uniform viscosity, chemic
ally pure and stable. It penetrates
rapidly and evenly and, unlike
other floor treatments, actually
becomes a part of the floor itself.
Westone will not create a fire
hazard as it has an extremely
high flash point.

58 FORD
COMING Nothing newer
NOV. 7
\ *- 11
AROUND THE WORLD
The St Ford has been proved around (he
world. This is the most dramatic and
most grueling test ever given a new car
before its public announcement.
The whole world was used as a test
track for the 58 Ford. The car drove
through England, France, Switzerland,
Italy, Yugoslavia, Greece, Turkey, Iran,
Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Malaya,
Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and
finally back to the place it started—
Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A,
The Ford powered over the great
mountain ranges of three continents:
from the Alps to the Himalayas and the
Rockies. It crossed the great rivers of
history: the Thames, the Seine, the Tiber,
the Arno, the Tigris, the Euphrates, the
Indus, the Ganges.
This car stood at Buckingham Palace,
rolled up the Champs Elysees to the Arc
de Triomphe, and paused at the Eiffel
Tower. It was greeted by the great Paris
couturieres at the famous fashion salons*
where its “sculptured in steel” styling was
applauded by the most style-conscious
audience in the world.
The 58 Ford rode smoothly down the
rugged, beautiful seacoast of Tito’s coun
try, to a festival in Dubrovnik, and into
Greece to Athens, where this newest
classic met such ancient classics as the
Parthenon and the Temple of Poseidon.
Into Turkey: and the 58 Ford passed
the great white lacework palaces of the
Sultans along the Bosporus and the
Golden Horn. Then the Ford went where
few but nomads travel, up into the hot
days and chill nights of the ancient
mountains of Afghanistan. And thence
along the route Alexander the Great fol
lowed with his chariots to cross the his
toric Indus river.
On and on the Ford moved, down into
the heat of mysterious India, through
New’ Delhi to the Taj Mahal, and to the
great pink palace of the Maharajah of
Jaipur.
This great new’ car met the challenge of
the monsoons—rains that for centuries
have stopped all road movement through
out Indo-China, but didn’t stop the 58
Ford. It drove on to Penang in Malaya,
and then north to Bangkok.
Further on came Saigon, the Paris of
thte Orient, at thte farthest tip of South
east Asia. Finally, it powered across the
great Rockies and plains of North
America and back, at long last, to Detroit,
Michigan.
Tho 58 Ford ... bos boon proved od
approved aroend tho world. A natural
question arises. Why did Ford go to truth
great lengths with its 1958 model? Why
spend so much money and time and go
through all the problems of negotiations,
customs, border transit, diplomacy in so
many countries?
The answer: in the competitive auto
mobile market of today, only the best in
all-around value can survive. And this
round-the-world test is the most decisive
possible demonstration of the best.
The 1958 Ford is value: hard-dollar
value. It is also style, power, performance,
and a dozen great new features. But above
all, it is value.
This is the car you’ve been waiting for.
See it November 7—there’s nothing newer
in the world than the 58 Ford I
proved and approved ff
around the world ^0 MJ
