6 Mr. Toughy’
A&M Graduate Featured
In Saturday Evening Post
An A&M graduate who has earn
ed the title “the toughest general
in the air force” is featured in this
week’s Saturday Evening Post.
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

Aggies could do with the Univer

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

Rex Baxter ji\, winnei’ of the
Border Olympics title, beat Bobby

Hessemer downed Aggie Marcekmo
Moreno, 2 and 1. The Baxter-

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

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.”
