The man is Brig. Gen. William (Jerry) Lee, ’27, now commander of the 13th air force. The avithor of the article, Rob ert Sherrod, paints Lee as a hell- for-leather, rambunctious general in the Patton and Forrest tradi tion. Lee’s career has included such Vandervoort Has 70; Cougars Win Dave Vandervoort shot the best round of the day, a two-under-par 70, but a 3-3 tie was the best the Aggies could do with the Univer sity of Houston in Monday’s golf match at Houston. Houston won 4-2 from the Aggie Fish. Vandeiwoort defeated Wally Bradley, 4 and 2. Jerry Durbin, A&M, downed Tommy Cruse, 2 up and Vandervoort and Durbin team ed to beat Bradley and Cruse, 4 and 2. Rex Baxter ji\, winnei’ of the Border Olympics title, beat Bobby Briggs, A&M, 5 and 4, and Pete Hessemer downed Aggie Marcekmo Moreno, 2 and 1. The Baxter- Hessemer duo beat Moi’eno and Briggs, 2 and 1. In frosh play, Frank Wharton deefated A&M’s Bobby Nichols, 3 and 2. Other scores—Joe McCune, A&M, beat Larry Morrell, 2 and 1; Nichols and McCune beat Whai-ton- Morrell, 2 and 1; Jimmy Hiskey decisioned Stewart Nuckles, A&M, and 3; Les Waserman beat Dick Chapman, A&M, 4 and 3; Hiskey- Waserman beat Nuckles-Chapman, and 3. varied incidents as teaching Presi dent Eisenhower to fly, slapping a United States representative, and waging a one-man war against “domineering women.” As Lee tells it in the article, he was not a very straight-laced lad while in school here either: “I spent the last two years on probation, because I got liquored up at my cousin’s wedding. I was the only one the night sergeant caught. They let me stay in school on the condition I’d sign a letter of I’esigmation they could keep handy. Another time I thought President Bizzell was going- to kick me out for milking a cow.” Milking a cow? “Yeah, a trainload of us had pulled up on a siding near Waco. A cow was tied up near the tracks, and I could see she needed milk ing. So I went over and milked, her. I didn’t see anything wrong in that. Dr. Bizzell said ‘It’s the way yovi did it—out there in front of all those people.” Lee was 24 when he graduated from A&M, and besides the ex ploits he tells about in the maga zine article, he had been a first lieutenant on the artillery staff, a member of the fish football team a distinguished student, president of the Saddle and Sirloin club vice-president of the Masonic club business manager of the rodeo and secretary-treasurer of the jun ior class. His home was Weather ford. He is the only bachelor of sci ence in animal husbandry who is a general in either the army or the air force, and he also has the Looking for A Career With A Fast-Growing Electric Company?

ODERN SIZE ight to call himself a “doctor.” A&M awax-ded him the honorary LLD degree in 1946. Lee taught Eisenhower to fly in 1937, when Lee was instructing the Philippine air force, a job which earned him the title “the father of the Philippine air force.” The slapping incident occured in Italy. Lee slapped John Maragon, a representative of President Tru man who was later indicted in the 5 per center” investigations. It was a street incident, and Lee did not know the man was an offi cial representative. I^ee was de moted to colonel as a result of the incident, but was later re named a brigadier general. And the war against women ? As he says, “The domineering American female is a he-wife who wears the britches in the family.” FILTER TIP TAREYTON Gives You The True Tobacco Taste You’ve Been Looking For!
