DOCTORS AMAZED AT RECUPERATION OF HELEN WILLS Finest Specimen of Girlhood They’ve Ever Seen \ —Precedent Set. (Copyright, 1926.) NEUILLT, France, June 14.—Helen Wills of Berkley, Cal., is the finest specimen of girlhood ever seen by Dr. Thierry de Martel, the greatest surgeon in France, who operated upon the American tennis champion for appendicitis recently. Dr. De Martel predicts the Californian -will he playing tennis again within four weeks. Unusual Operation Dr. Gabriel Maura nge, who assisted at the operation, disclosed that Miss Wills’ unusual muscular development permitted the removal of an appendix for the first time in the history of French surgery—possibly of the world —without cutting the abdominal muscles. “When Dr. de Martel had made an incision one inch deep and found no fat whatever, he was able to pry aside the right abdominal muscle and reach the appendix underneath, whereas customarily a surgeon is obliged to make a horizontal incision in this muscle,” his colleague explained. Wonderful Athlete Helen Wills’ “poker face” came in for more enthusiastic comment from the French physicians. “Tour Miss Wills not only Is a wonderful athlete,” said Dr. Maurange. “She is undoubtedly one of the calmest characters in the world. This has enabled her to convalesce at record speed. “Whereas ordinarily only the best patients rise on the tenth or twelfth day after such an Miss Wills ate heartily of chicken on the fourth day and two days later walked about her room without danger or pain. “She is physically a 100 per cent perfect snecimen of girlhood, one whom all women of the world could wisely copy. “Her moderate life, her quiet temper and her devotion to sport have made her- body remarkable,” the surgeon continued. ► Rare Among Men Even “£>r. De Martel, who operates upon as many as fifteen persons a day, told me he never before found the equal of Miss Wills. It is exceedingly rare even among men that such harmonious development of body muscles Is found.” The two surgeons examined Miss Wills’ heart and lungs and found them perfect, Dr. Maurange said. “Like her whole body, they were marvelous,” he added. “She is a splendid example of what sport can do for women. It should encourage all girls to so two things; first, select some sport and play at It. moderately; second, seek to cultivate such excellent calmness as hers, which Is largely responsible for her quick recovery.” “Certainly there are net'ten women In all the world whose muscles would permit such an operation," he continued.

MM DOMES PUT AT DISPOSAL OF NATION’S CDIEF President Will Probably Go to Hotel While White House Is Repaired. Timet W nshinotan Bureau, • 13tl Sew York Arenue WASHINGTON. June 12.—Polltlcs may crush him —eventually—but President Coolidge does not want the White House roi-f to do it. While he is occupying the summer White House In the coo] Adriondack woods this summer, the carpenters will repair several of the wooden joists supporting Wie heavy Iron roof of the Washington White House. For the last two or three years this has been considered unsafe, but only within the last month or two has Coolldge's seemed apprehensive about his family’s safety In the historile old mansion. Hotel Favored This work will cost between $325,00') and $400,000. It may not be finished by the time the President returns to Washington this fall. In that case the executive and" the first lady of the land are expected to seek quarters In one of the presidential suites in one of Washington’s swanky hotels. While he was Vice President Coolidge lived at the Willard, also for a week or so following his elevation to the Presidency. Many Offers Many homes have already been offered to the President for his use this fall, hut those who know the President's days declare he will not be likely to occupy any other Washington suite. Although there will be an allowance of $25,000 from the Government to pay for a temporary home for him, Coolidge Is believed to he more friendly to the idea tl going to a hotel, w/ere extremely reasnable rates will be offered for the privileeg of housing and serving the highest executive of the United States Government.' One of the Washington houses which will be suggested to the President for his temporary home next fall Is the big empty house on upper Sixteenth St., which Mrsr. Henderson built for the use oU the Vice President. Coolidge, however, would not live in this house when he was Vice President,. and will hardly do so now. No Vice President has ever occupied it. Even His Church Roofs seem to be falling all about the President. The latest is that the First Congregational Church here where he worships, has been closed because the plaster has been falling. Nothing has been heard about the possibility of dangerous roofs at the White Pine camps.
