The length of the casualty list bespeaks the price the cream of our youth has paid for this victory. To us as citizens of the world the formulation of a lasting peace is a great challenge. To us as men and women of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Nursing the wounded service personnel and the impoverished and malnourished millions of peoples offer even a greater challenge. To us reconstruction should mean chiefly restoration and rebuilding of wrecked human beings as well as restoration and rebuilding of wrecked cities. American medicine and its allied fields has done much to decrease the mortality rate of battle casualties. Their efforts to shorten hospitalization of the wounded and to restore them to duty with greater function in the shortest possible time have been very successful. In the latter role the field of Physical Medicine, heretofore greatly neglected, has come to the fore. A great deal is yet to be learned about this phase of medicine, but it promises to be an important adjunct to the fields of medicine and surgery. The future of Physical Medicine and the part that it has already played in the rehabilita- tion of war wounded is justification for its choice as the theme of the 1945 X-Ray. The philanthropic grants of Mr. Bernard Baruch for research in Physical Medicine is enabling the Medical College of Virginia to contribute to the general knowledge of this field. The humanitarian gesture of Mr. Baruch is gratefully acknowledged by dedicating this volume to him, and the importance and potentialities of the field of Physical Medicine are presented to the students of the Medical College of Virginia in the special section on this subject.

During his subsequent professional career he wrote several classical works on the application of water for therapeutic purposes and became Professor of Hydrotherapy at Columbia University. Later he was associated with the Saratoga Spa. His pioneer work in physical medicine won for him the title of Father of Hydrotherapy in America. Mr. Bernard M. Baruch, the son, though not a physician, acquired from his father a sustained and unquenchable interest in the same field. In 1929, in response to a message from Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Legis- lature of the State of New York created a special commission to study the opportunities for the development of the Spa facilities at Saratoga. With Bernard M. Baruch as chairman, the Baruch Commission proposed a pro- gram which was declared by subsequent legislative enactment in 1930 to be a part of the public health policy of the State. Thus, from time to time, despite other duties, Mr. Baruch aided in the gradual evolution of physical medicine. His interest culminated in the fall of 1943 with the appointment of a distinguished Committee on Physical Medicine, to study and report on what further should be done to insure a sound, scientific development of this branch of medical practice which had assumed a new and urgent importance because of the physical rehabilitation problems arising out of the military and industrial manpower shortages of the War. Editor ' s Note: The help of Dr. Frances A. Hellebrandt and her Technician Staff, Dr. Ernst Fischer, Dr William T Sanger, Dr. J. C. Elsom, Mr. Clifton B. Cosby, Mr. Frank Dement,, and Mr. A. C. Ford in the preparation of this section is 9 ratefully acknowledged. The art work related to Physical Medicine was done by Sergeant Edward Paier, of McGuire General Hospital.

At the Medical College of Virginia, one of these centers, we of the newly organized Baruch Center of Physical Medicine are in agreement that the best way to show our appreciation is to obtain the largest possible return from the funds expended. We thank Mr. Baruch most sincerely, and set forth the following tentative program: I. RESEARCH The empiricism of physical medicine has been its major limitation, delaying acceptance and hindering development in line with the forward march of biological and medical science. The Medical College of Virginia has therefore accepted the establishment of basic and clinical research laboratories as its first obligation. Toward this end it has appointed a team of three workers, composed of a physiologist, a physicist, and a clinician, who will set up an integrated investigative program. The objectives of this group embrace not only the addition to human knowledge through the fundamental study of physical agents and how they affect living tissues, but the application of things learned to the alleviation of the suffering of the maimed and the sick. The laboratories are now housed in the north wing of the fifth floor of the Clinic Building. The basic research laboratory has been func- tioning since early summer. The physics laboratory and shop are now being equipped. The full co-ordinated research program must await the parallel development of the Hospital Division ' s clinical program. Mr. Baruch designated hydrotherapy, spa therapy, and climatology as the areas for special emphasis by the Medical College of Virginia. Three of America ' s foremost Spas have volunteered to co-operate with the Baruch Center in the furtherance of its studies along these lines. In this connection, the exceptional facilities of the Leo N. Levi Memorial Hospital of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and its valuable archives have already been inspected in preparation for the institution of a clinical research program. II. EDUCATION The expansion and improvement of educational opportunities for those specially interested in physical medicine is the second of the Medical College of Virginia ' s obliga- tions. These objectives are inseparable from the development of a vigorous investigative program, for teaching without research is sterile. The two should complement each other to the benefit of both and the advantage of the field as a whole. Two student groups must be served, the medical and the technical. The Medical College of Virginia anticipates the early establishment of Fellowships in Physical Medicine for graduates desiring specialization in this or related branches of medical practice. It will include refresher courses for those who saw physical medicine Christening the therapeutic pool of the Leo N. Levi Memorial Hospital of Hot Springs, Arkansas. The portals of the Hospital are open wide for the reception of those who are in need of the healing waters of the Hot Springs, and who are without means to obtain the necessary medical treatment Underwater exercise in the pool at the Medical College of Vir- ginia Hospital as a part of the convalescent program for patients with infantile paralysis Electrodesiccation being per- formed with the Oudin current from a teaching model of the spark gap diathermy machine donated to the Medical College of Vir- ginia by Dr. James C. Elsom, ' 86 function in military installations and would like to equip themselves to better apply it in civilian practice. To enhance general appreciation of the place of physical forms of treatment in the manage- ment of the patient as a whole, a new approach to undergraduate teaching is to be made. This will commence with a fundamental study of the physics and physiological effects of the therapeutic agents used in physical medicine, and then progress to observation of their clinical application on a high scientific plane. Since a technical assistant commonly serves as the agent of the physician in the actual administra- tion of physical forms of treatment, serious attention has already been given the organization of a sound and well rounded Physical Therapy Tech- nician Training Program. This will go into effect with the beginning of the next school year. For those eligible for graduate study, the Medical College of Virginia will offer a second degree. Army technicians whose training and experience have been limited to military physical therapy will be accommodated in Vocational Rehabilitation Courses, which may be pursued under the G. I. Bill of Rights, their object being to expedite the assumption of civilian duties in hospitals requiring professional registration. III. SERVICE TO THE SICK The Medical College of Virginia believes that from the practical point of view nothing is more important to research and education in physical medicine than the establishment of a type of service to the sick which utilizes fundamental advances in knowledge, and applies all available quantitative measures designed to evaluate critically the results achieved. To this end it has significantly expanded the clinical facilities of its Hospital Divisions which serve white and negro patients. By the summer of 1945 both hospital units will be furnished with the latest equipment for the practice of all accepted forms of physical medicine, as well as various precision devices permitting the introduction of quantitative methods. The Clinics are being staffed and organized in a manner which will enable them to take their rightful place in a teaching hospital and maintain it on a high academic plane. The curative and diversional services of occupational therapy are to be incorporated into and integrated with the physical therapy prescription. Thus, the influence and results of the Baruch Center ' s research and educational plan should reflect ultimately in the better use of physical forms of treatment to give solace to the sick, to aid in healing, to expedite the return of function, and to engender healthy and vigorous attitudes toward the responsibilities of everyday living.

In fact, the patient ' s general condition following injury may be allowed to deteriorate to such an extent that he returns home less resistant to the normal hazards of his usual physical work than when he entered the hospital. In the years prior to the war there was manpower enough to compensate easily for the stresses of ordinary living. There was no particular premium on physical fitness, and no real interest in making the disabled employable as quickly as possible. All this changed precipitously with the onset of the war. Manpower shortages in the military services and in industry became the impetus to several significant contributions in the field of physical medicine. They focused attention on two elemental needs previously neglected, the securing of quicker and the securing of better return of function, subsequent to the disabling injury. Because of sheer necessity, bold experiments on the hastening of convalescence were instituted in England and then in this country. A new attack was made on disability evaluation with emphasis on the assessment of residual capacity and the fitting of the physically handi- capped into useful jobs, rather than on the awarding of compensation for residual impairment. The Army demonstrated that enforced leisure due to hospitalization could be constructively utilized to further the technical education of the injured man, so that upon discharge from the hospital he was not only physically fit but returned to duty as a better informed individual. In the aggregate, these experiences have led to a broadened concept of physical medicine, embracing areas which previously attracted little medical attention. Rehabilitation now begins as soon as the patient arrives in the hospital. The concept of keeping the whole man fit following injury is second only in importance to the early institution of physical therapy procedures. The establishment of (12) Using the galvanic current in the treatment of hypertrichosis One of the extremity whirlpools in use at the Medical College of Virginia Hospital H The occupational therapist provides these patients with activities that are both diversional and curative, thus hastening convalescence convalescent depots in which military discipline is resumed away from the hospital atmosphere has done so much to hasten recovery following incapacitating injury that this divergence from orthodox management may well influence the design and administration of the civilian hospitals of the future. The great benefit attained through the judicious employment of rehabilitation procedures has been one of the outstanding contributions of war medicine to general knowl- edge. It is true that the war has as yet given birth to no dramatic advances by producing hitherto unused tools. Rather, it has utilized established methods in new ways. Since the techniques being elaborated are applicable to the treatment of many diseases, it is to be hoped that well integrated physical therapy, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation departments will become a part of the modern hospital organization serving all types of patients, and that the medical student of the future will be prepared to assume responsibility for the furtherance of this development by virtue of systematic training in a physical medicine program rooted in sound basic and clinical research.

Although the use of physical agents in the treatment of disease dates back to antiquity, it was their help in the salvage of those disabled in the World War of 1914-18 which first aroused widespread in- terest on the part of the medical profession. Unfortunately, skepticism, prejudice, lack of a sustained program of scientific research, coupled with the failure to introduce physical therapy into the medical school curriculum on a high academic plane, inhibited the impetus to growth stimulated by the war. Now a quarter century later, American medicine finds itself inade- quately prepared to meet the urgent physical reconstruction problems suddenly presented by another world conflict. Organized physical medicine is making heroic efforts to meet the current situation and to plan more intelligently for the future. While it has been estimated that (in the normal civilian practice of medicine) from 5 to 10 per cent of all patients hospitalized require some form of physical treatment, the needs of war medicine in this respect are infinitely greater. No sooner had large numbers of selectees been subjected to military training, than it became evident that there was an acute shortage of the type of medical and technical personnel necessary to care adequately for their needs. It was apparent early that a vigorous educational program would hav to be introduced in order to meet the vastly increased demand for physical therapy which would accompany actual participation in hostili- ties. Thus, both the Army and the Navy found (14) it necessary to supplement defects in the education of its medical officers by the introduction of specialized post-graduate training in physical medicine. The number of patients referred for physical therapy in Army hospitals ranges from 20 to 30 per cent of all admissions. Indeed, it now appears that the physical rehabilitation of psychiatric casualties and the high incidence in the present war of fractures, amputations and peripheral nerve injuries, will be the most serious medical and social problem of its kind the world has ever known. The lives of many men injured in military service are now being saved by the prompt use of whole blood and its substitutes, the sulfonamide drugs and penicillin, and by new methods of rapidly transporting the wounded to med ical centers remote from the field of military operations. Many men with comparable injuries were lost in the last war. Among those saved, then, will be a larger percentage of the seriously disabled in need of prolonged treatment by the procedures utilized in the practice of physical medicine. Thus, this formerly obscure and poorly developed branch of medical practice assumes such critical importance as to make it worthy of serious consideration by all medical students laying plans for their professional future. The trend of the times appears to place more and more directly under medical control all aspects of the process of returning the physically injured and psychically disturbed to a useful civilian life. The term rehabilitation has become one of the medico-sociologic catch phrases of the war epoch. Its potentialities for good have fired the imagination of large numbers of lay and professional people. It now appears that the rehabilitation procedures growing out of current military hospital experience will in all probability become an integral part of postwar civilian health service, with greater emphasis than before on the general restoration of psychosomatic function. Every medical student knows that the successful setting of a fracture does not insure the prompt and spontaneous return of the part to full function. Many lesions which heal in weeks may seriously incapacitate a man for many months because of secondary, often preventable, (Please turn to page 12) These patients are engaged in a checker game as a requirement in the achievement program For arm prosthetic patients.

Thus wrote Dr. Simon Baruch in his Epitome of Hydrotherapy published in 1920 shortly before his death. The larger portion of his professional career was devoted to untiring efforts to demonstrate that hydro- therapy fulfills these four conditions. From his earliest writings on, he emphasized the importance of establishing the rationale for this branch of physical therapy. The first quarter of his first book, The Use of Water in Modern Medicine published in 1892, deals exclusively with the physiological changes brought about by the various applications of water, while the clinical :hapters contain a wealth of sound observations accompanied by attempts at a statistical evalua- tion of the results obtained. Simon Baruch ' s well known Text Book of Hydrotherapy, first published in 1898 and translated into French and German, also stressed the importance of an understanding of the basic physiological reaction produced by water and the need for critical evaluation of all clinical observations. Baruch was well aware that if the medical profession failed to grasp the value of hydrotherapy and to study its biological foundation, The quack and semi-quack, who haunts the flanks of the medical army, as the guerilla does that of a nation would pick up these methods and drive the physician from the field. Unfortunately, Simon Baruch ' s advice was too often disregarded. The regrettable result was that the average physician did not realize that sound physical therapy requires, as does sound drug therapy, a thorough knowledge of the basic effects of the various remedial agents used and of the relation between dosage and effect. Because of these omissions, physical therapy became one of the least respected specialties of medicine. As so often happens a vicious cycle developed. Relatively few good physicians were attracted to physical medicine in the last decades. In consequence, our knowledge of the basic process involved in the curative effect of physical agents advanced much less than our physiological and therapeutic knowledge in general. Students often get the mistaken impression that physical therapy is based solely on mediocre empiricism, on personal experience, or even only on the faith of those who believe in physical therapy. Since, as a rule, medical students learn about physical therapy only occasionally, and then superficially in the last two years of their schooling, it is not astonishing that those with an aptitude for research turn away from physical medicine to follow other pathways with scientific traditions well estab- lished by generations of scientists and clinicians. The problems of wartime rehabilitation have opened the eyes of large numbers of physicians and laymen to the needs of an adequate scientific knowledge of the principles of physical therapy. If funds for research can be obtained as readily for problems in physical medicine as for others, clinical work and research in the field will increase and improve. However, progress driven only by economic incentives, un- supported by educational efforts, will be slow. Students and young physicians must be impressed with the fact that the dif- ference between the scientific foundation of physical therapy and that of drug therapy is not so great as it seems at first glance. The advances in our general knowledge in physiology, especially those concerning vascular regulations, lymph formation an d transport, action of the autonomic nervous system, and photodynamic reactions, to name but a few, enable us to visualize, to some extent at least, how various physical therapeutic agents may influence certain body functions and pathological processes. It is important to realize that much of the basic research performed in other fields of medicine has accomplished nothing more than the elaboration of probable mech- anisms for the mode of action of accepted therapeutic measures. It is not a peculiarity restricted to physical medicine that all the mechanisms involved in the curative effects observed are unknown. What physician will refuse to use colchicin for his patients with gout on the grounds that we have not the least idea in what precise manner colchicin acts on the abnormal metabolism responsible for the gout syndrome? Similarly, digitalis and many other effective drugs were used long before we could visualize the mech- anism of their actions. Again and again experience has demonsttated that what we New ultraviolet lamp in use in the M. C. V.

Only continuing research can give us the facts out of which come hypotheses approximating the truth. Since a plausible explanation of the beneficial action of a remedial agent may be fallacious, the truly scientific physician is not satisfied with a possible explanation of its mode of action, but desires also to know the precise relation between dosage and effect. Planned experimentation, keeping all factors constant except one, and subsequent analysis of the results and the gathering of controlled clinical observations (the major scientific approaches to medicine in general) are equally applicable to physical medicine. Unfortunately, basic animal research is sometimes difficult, since we can better simulate acute diseases which are usually treated in man with drug therapy or surgery, than those chronic conditions seen in many patients sent to the physical therapy department or spa because of failure or lack of promise of drug therapy or surgery. In practice, sharp division between basic and clinical research is impossible. Both have to work hand in hand. There are many problems which should be attacked simultaneously by a co-operating team of workers, each having some specialized training in one or more of the numerous experimental, theoretical, and clinical problems involved. The field for investi- gation in physical medicine is very wide — in fact a virgin one. The task of present-day research in physical medicine can be epitomized in a series of aphorisms based on those of Baruch for hydrotherapy: (1) To procure sound scientific proof of the biological actions brought about by physical agents. (2) To determine the exact relation between quality or quantity of the agents and the effects produced. (3) To offer plausible theoretical explanations for the effects observed and for their dependence on quantity and quality of the physical agents. (4) To provide methods to make the effective agents easily accessible in the needed and controlled quantity and quality. (5) To evaluate critically the therapeutic and diagnostic use of biologically effective physical agents. The positive negative pressure boot in the treatment of peripheral vascular dis ease u ecol lectin Having graduated from the Medical College of Virginia with the ancient Class of 1886, I claim relationship to Rip Van Winkle, and to whatever super-annuated title (if any) which he may have had! Ever since those ancient days I have always been proud of my Alma Mater, and especially so within the past few years, having witnessed her remarkable development, her progressive spirit, and her outstanding service and contributions to the advancement of the medical profession. I am very happy to know of the magnificent grants recently made and ear- marked for the Baruch Center, and for the further scientific development of Physical Medicine. In this branch of therapy I have been interested for many years, especially during World War I, when the various physical agents (most of them of ancient usage) became grouped under the heading Physical Therapy. Their physiological effects and therapeutic values were studied and widely used in the reconstruction hospitals of that day, and from the beneficial effects which were observed large numbers of medical men became interested in the results. The Government in 1917 issued a call for medical men who had had some experience in administering the newer forms of treatment by physical means distinct from the usual forms of medicine and surgery. There were very few who volunteered for such service. The term Physical Therapy was new, and hardly recognized by the medical profession. My application was forwarded to the Surgeon General ' s office and accepted. Appointed a Captain in the Medical Corps, I reported to the War Office in Chicago for assignment to duty to an old Medical Corps Major of many years ' service, who looked me over, and asked if I had a specialty. I answered in the affirmative. What is it? he asked. Physical Therapy, Sir. What in hell is that? was his explosive question. I tried to explain. Well, said he, I guess I ' ll send you to Fort Leavenworth. And to Fort Leavenworth I went! That Post was a kind of training ground for newly appointed medics, but there was no Physical Therapy within a thousand miles! After a few months there I was ordered to Walter Reed Hospital in Washington for instruction and duty. At that time this was the fountain head of Physical Therapy training and observation. There were only six or seven officers taking the course at the time, all being sent to reconstruction Precise control of fever therapy made possible by this modern cabinet which is a modification of the original Kettering Hypertherm hospitals when considered sufficiently proficient. It was extremely interesting. We worked all day and well into the night in the department and in the wards. Eventually I was assigned as Officer in charge of P. T. at General Hospital No. 3, Colonia, N. J., near Rahway. Here a splendid beginning had been made, consisting of a whole building for Physical Therapy, a very well-equipped gymnasium for corrective exercises, games, etc., a small swimming pool, a hydrotherapy department, well equipped with Baruch apparatus, rooms for electrical treatment, with adequate machines, rooms for radiant heat and light, ultra violet lamps, etc. There were about fifty Aides in the Department, and a dozen or so enlisted men who had had previous training as pre-medics, or physical directors. Hundreds of patients were treated daily, all cases referred from the surgical, medical, orthopedic, or neurological departments. In addition to the P. T. Department, there were separate rooms for occupational therapy, with unusually extensive equipment, including a green house in which patients worked with pleasure and profit.

Army Signal Corps In this work there passed the most interesting year of my life. On my return to the University of Wis- consin, from which I had an indefinite leave of absence, the Dean of the Medical School, the late Dr. Charles Bardeen, immediately felt interested enough to establish the beginnings of a Physical Therapy Department in a building which was then the Children ' s Hospital. The Wisconsin General Hospital was in process of construction in 1920, and here was provided adequate quarters with fair equipment in Physical Therapy, with the writer in charge. I am proud to have had a hand in these developments for the next fifteen years. A series of P. T. lectures with credits were required for all junior medical students. In the senior year each student was required in the second semester to spend two hours each afternoon in the Department in observing the work and in giving what assistance they could in the treatment of the patients. In addition to instruction of the medical students, the Women ' s Department of Physical Education sent over those senior students who were interested in Physical Therapy as a profession. Besides a se- mester ' s course of lectures, the young women had practical experience in the Department, and a good many occupy important positions today in other colleges, clinics, and hospitals. Thus the years have passed; and according to the rules of the University of Wisconsin, if the poor Professor gets to be seventy years old (through no fault of his own) he is given his hat, told good-bye, and asked, What ' s your hurry? Mention must be made of the organizations of the postwar days, and their frequent well attended meetings. There had been for many years previous to the war an orga nization known as the American Electrotherapy Association, composed of medical men mostly of New England and other parts of the East, who were interested mainly in the administration of the electric currents (Galvanic and Static) in certain physical disorders. After the war the active American Physical Therapy Association was formed. The name was first changed to the American College of Physical Therapy, and later to the present name, Ameri- can Congress of Physical Therapy. Besides the parent association, the Midwest Society, the New England Society, the Pacific Coast Society, and others, were formed, as gradually the interest spread in the use of physical means for the treatment of disease. Over-enthusiasm prevailed in some quarters, notably in the use of ultra-violet forms of treatment. Text books were being written, good, bad, and indifferent. The quality of leadership in the new therapy greatly improved as the years went by. The Council of Physical Therapy, formed by the American Medical Association, has been a more recent potent factor in the development of scientific methods. Today, after retirement, as I sit on the sidelines and watch the crowds go by, I am thankful to see others carrying on so successfully, with such enthusiasm of spirit. I am especially happy to see our beloved Alma Mater blessed with means, personnel, and determination to bring Physical Medicine into the position of usefulness it so richly deserves! J.

AS a result of the war we are now hearing considerably more about reconditioning, or rehabilitation. x .At the moment the reference to this work is more largely to military hospitals. In time, however, we can expect civilian institutions and agencies to assume increasing responsibilities for the rehabilitation of certain cases among the discharged service personnel along with industrial workers. It can be expected that the reconditioning program of the army will substantially influence recondition- ing activities after the war. The low mortality among our mounting casualty lists today gives orthopedic surgery and physical medicine new emphasis and new opportunities for development; this is bound to influence civilian medical practice also. Judged both from the standpoint of the military and the industrial, it would seem that this is superbly (he time lor (he establishment somewhere in this country, and we would hope at the Medical College of Virginia, an Institute of Industrial Rehabilitation to serve as a national lighthouse in this field. Its (unction would be to demonstrate all of the now known procedures for the rehabilitation of the worker in industry and to evaluate them; to lest new procedures which may be developed at the Baruch Center of Physical Medicine, and elsewhere; to do important clinical research; to issue publications suitable for the use ol industrial physicians and others engaged in rehabilitation work; to publicize for the layman the possibilities l rehabilitation; and (o educate an increasing number of specialists in rehabilitation. Such an institute would be a natural complement to our Baruch Center program, and would require a considerable health-service staff. Let us together hope that an Institute of Industrial Rehabilitation can somehow be realized by the College, to the great advantage of (he public, alumni, and on-coming students.

Marra, dthletic Representative George Jonks, Dean ' s Committee Representative IT WAS a blistering, hot day in July, 1942, when eighty Freshmen Medical Students entered Mc- Guire Hall with numerous palpitations and tremors. This was the first new class to begin the wartime speed-up program, and it was the first new class to meet Dean Gray. Being adequately welcomed, we were plunged into the sea of anatomy and its various branches, and were marked with the badge of a Freshman, A.O. (Anatomy Odor) — that of a half- preserved corpse. Then, came Biochemistry, Bac- teriology, and bang! we were Sophomores, but only after two anxious weeks of waiting for the results of our first push. We wore the Sophomor e Badge of Merit, the bright and shiny stethoscope, from April until December, 1943. During that time, all sorts of things were crammed into our already over-crowded brain (with sawdust, of course). We sacrificed dogs, frogs, cats, rats, and even bits of ourselves, in the fight for knowledge. We looked into microscopes, jars, and abdominal cavities, learned how to burn the midnight oil and the candle at both ends simultaneously — gracefully — almost; and we learned how to be good(?) soldiers and sailors when the Army and the Navy took most of us under control in June, 1943. Then, with ten short days to catch our breath, and Christmas presents, we became Juniors. At this time, twenty of our West Virginia friends joined us in our struggle to become doctors and all hundred of us began to carry the mark of the third- year class, a blood box. We d id physicals and blood counts, took histories and ran urinanalyses, assisted Seniors with outside deliveries and did CBC ' s; examined eyes, ears, noses and throats and ran clotting times; gave hip shots and did VP ' s, took out stitches and did PSP ' s; examined babies and planted nose and throat cultures, started fluids and did whatever we were told to do. In other words, we had our own patients! Then, by September, we were Seniors. The fourth year ' s rank of distinction was a black bag, carried most professionally, and although it impressed the patients very little, it had much effect on the underclassmen. This time, we were allowed to give our own psychotherapy, write our own prescriptions, hold retractors, write our own pediatrics orders and deliver babies. Then there was an extra month in which we could delve into our specialty of choice. Before leaving, we want to put our vital statistics on record. Whc ' n we started our speed-up medical program, only six of us were married. Near the end of our Freshman year, the Honeycutts presented us with our first baby, over which we had quite a celebration, but when Lilly came in with our West Virginia Section, he outdid our record by bringing his four-year-old son along. By the end of our medical schooling, forty-four of us were married and we boasted proudly of our fifteen children. So, with our stable background and many inspira- tions, let us go our separate ways and keep up with our progress by reading articles in current periodicals written by you, or you, from M. C. V. Class of 1945. Good luck! EDWARD HATCHER ALDERMAN Four Oaks, North Carolina Alpha Kappa Kappa, Alpha Omega Alpha, Sigma Zeta Wake Forest College; B.S.

Fuller, Honor Council John P. Bing, X-Ray Representative William C. Winter, Jr., Skull and Bones Representative John R. Fitzgerald, Athletic Representative Raymond E. Stone, Dean ' s Committee IN OCTOBER, 1944, a well developed, poorly nourished, young adult (yes, adult!), appearing more than his stated age, presented himself as a third-year medical student to the hospitals and clinics of the Medical College of Virginia. His expres- sion was eager, and the pockets of his fresh, white coat bulged with shiny new instruments. He spoke very little, but in the clinic and wards he frequently caught pearls in a small, black book, suitable for this purpose. There was one characteristic thing about this newcomer — he invariably hugged to his left side a flat, wooden box which was fairly sprouting with all manner of small glass bottles and tubes! You could see him any time, day or night, hurrying up and down, back and forth, through the building, while muttering something about CBCs. At the beginning, this man had seemed slightly confused, awkward and frightened, but as the weeks turned into months, he learned a good many things. He attended three lectures — three of them — every single day. Though he might have been up all night long with his little wooden box, he nevertheless sat in on some of these lectures, intent on every word, thrilled with the magnificence of medicine. In others, he learned to sleep in a polite manner. You saw him at the Student Union, now and then, but rarely did he go out on Thursday nights. There was forever the possibility of a surgery quiz on Friday, and so on Thursday nights he thought about whether to, or not to, put air back into the pleural cavity — whether to aspirate, or to drain. He realized that the principles of surgery were before him and the time was short. Yes, he studied to pass the quiz, but it wasn ' t the quiz that prompted his desire to learn and to understand. He derived that from the Chief — the man who gave the quiz. You noticed, too, that as the months slipped past, this student held his head a little higher, he learned to hurry quietly and to stand and listen without watching the clock, he began to see what he was looking at. Now it was easy to talk with patients, his patients. At first, he enjoyed the joke of being addressed as Doctor, now it did not seem funny, it seemed almost right. It was not all work for him, that is, not quite all. Sure, he went to the dances, he got fed up some- times and took in a show. He joked and ribbed the other students, got away for a week-end now and then. He still had the audacity to boo a professor (the ones who would laugh with him). But for some reason or other, when he got back at night after a show, you were likely to see him in the Emergency Room, watching an interne as he sutured. And he often dropped by the operating room at midnight — just to see that he wasn ' t missing something. You see, he has come a long way since October. Then, he had just finished that other school, the one at McGuire Hall and the Egyptian Building — the pre-clinical school. Now he is using his pre-clinical knowledge, he is using the technique of clinical medicine. He can even venture a diagnosis! JUNIORS IN MEDICINE Top row: William H. Barney Altavista, Va. Richard N.

Fisher, Honor Council William Pope, Skull and Bones Representative Robert Payne, X-Ray Representative Wilson Powell, Executive Committee Ralph Riffenburg, Dean ' s Committee Class History TADIES and Gentlemen, the Sophomore Class! - - Short-lived may she be as such, but long-lived in the total realm of medicine. This is the year of sit, study and sober up, especially sit; or have you noticed that as young medics we show a remarkable degree of pressure atrophy in certain regions (middle-age spread to the laity and Freshmen). There are certain general characteristics to be seen in every second year medical class. Among these are that old tired feeling, the ping-pong neck — developed from following the ball so viciously batted between the clinicians and physiologists — that sledge- hammer look (in the main, this follows your brilliant answer to an oral question), and the worms walk. And now for the factors which distinguish our class. We have our own personal, pre-war and impregnable grapevine. At times, our sense of martyrdom is unprecedented. At least Joan of Arc knew her fate. We never know whether we ' re going to be burned or knifed. The rest of the time, however, we manage to keep our sense of humor. Each of us harbors a love for medicine, fostered by our personal convictions concerning the part we desire to play in the importance and maintenance of a high standard in our profession. Our modesty is unexcelled — when our stethoscopes were issued, one of the boys went from the basement of McGuire Hall to the second floor with his, via the hospital, the Egyptian Build- ing, and Hunton Hall — which you must admit, is as good a way as any. Socially, we have contributed little to campus functions other than by our mere presence. We haven ' t had the time to arrange and organize such, but we are grateful to those of the school who could give us a week-end shindig or two to enjoy. Perhaps we shall blossom on Harvey Haag Day.

Judy, Athletic Representative W. B. Looney, Dean ' s Committee Class History WITH high hopes of being here to see this in print, the Freshman Class hereby reveals some of its mysteries. Setting a new precedent, thirty of this class ma- triculated in the School of Medicine three months early — in late June. Those of us who were here found out how hot this city can get (note to other members of the class). Our number was greatly increased to seventy in October by Army and Navy trainees, and veterans of the armed forces. Six girls enlarged the class membership to its final enrollment of seventy-six. Our first quarter was spent laboring over fetid cadavers and learning the development of the embryo. With danger to our lives, we constantly weathered, day after day, the withering fire of our capable, young Dr. Hegre. While Dr. Ingersoll was, among other things, teaching us the pathway from the purple nucleus to the fifth ventricle, Professor Anderson was en- deavoring to explain to us the blood supply of the cornea. The mysteries of the human body were anatomically uncovered under the guidance of Dr. Osterud and Mrs. Jones. Two members of the class, ably com- bining work and pleasure, did outstanding work in Anatomy. Our class basketball team was runner-up in the Intramural Basketball League, and we contributed four players to the Medico ' s varsity. Third place was taken by our ping pong team in the school tournament. Pledging was successively carried on by the fra- ternities, without too much bloodshed. Fraternity parties and improving school dances helped to ease the constant grind of study. As the days rapidly pass by, our visions of stetho- scopes and percussion hammers become more real, and we are earnestly working towards that day in 1947 when we will receive our diplomas.

Jones, Jr., Bean ' s Committee Class History TT WAS less than three years ago when the Class of ' 45 met for the first time in McGuire Hall to begin our study of Dentistry. Since that day we have traveled far and we have traveled quickly. During this short time, we have accumulated memories which will linger a lite- time. Who will forget that day when we received our cadavers, or the day we learned to differentiate between the hot water and cold water taps in Bio, or when we carved our first t ooth in oral anatomy? Soon we became accustomed to our new surroundings and classmates, we studied hard and time flew by. Soon we found ourselves entering our second year. Can we forget that summer in the lab, carving wax patterns and suffering those casting fadures in crown and bridge, or running burs in one ' s fingers while preparing cavities for operative? Combined with Physiology and Pathology it was a pleasant and memorable day when we donned a clinic coat and began our clinical work. Our Junior year introduced us to our first patients, whom we handled so gently. What pride we took in that first restoration, what elation in our first set of dentures, and how our hand shook when we gave our first mandibular block. Soon we took these in stride, and remembered we were doing a service for our patients. We went into our Senior year determined to make the most of the short time left. We began to realize that in a few months we would be out on our own and felt rather inadequate. With this as an incentive we worked all the harder in our clinical hours. Now, with graduation looming up before us, most of us plan to enter the Army or the Navy. The future of our practice of Dentistry looks uncertain, but with our more than adequate preparation, we are looking forward, feeling prepared to serve both our country and our fellowman, conscientiously and faithfully.

How far away the - - final whistle seems, wit h so much vet to come. Perhaps the next year will not hold quite as many annoying surprises as has our present year. At last we reached the days of our dreams — real patients with twenty-eight teeth, more-or-less — and all in dire need of immediate emergency treatment! Yes, we found that it could be done: four fingers, three cotton rolls and clamp, a mirror, and a contra- angle, all in the same mouth at the same time, and occasionally with enough room left to see. It ' s odd why these teeth should be so much more sensitive than those we worked on last year. Services were something new. Often we wondered at the word service. Service to the patient, or service to the Senior with whom we worked? At least, the Seniors had their own ideas along those lines. Then there was that first denture patient. My! what a nice, big, empty oral cavity — and all we had to do was scatter a few teeth around in it somewhere in the neighborhood of the ridges. But, wait a minute. Doctor! This patient won ' t bite in the same relationship twice. Yes, everything has its troubles, and that was one of the many we met in Prosthetics. As we reminisce over these past three years we must smile to ourselves. When the Freshman year was over we told ourselves the ice was broken and the toughest round won, no more would we worry as during that year. The Sophomore year finally came to an end also, and we realized by this time that Sophomores, too, must engage their share of work; no more would we worry as during that Sophomore year. And now, the Junior year is over. No more will we worry as during that Junior year! As we reflect on these things gone by, and speculate on things to come, let us hope and determine that when this last year is over we can still smile. Top row: Charles T. Barker New Bern, N. C.

On completing our Freshman year, the Army dissolved their Dental A.S.T.P. program and allowed those that were under the Army to return to civilian status; however, six of our members remained with the Army and left for Camp Barclay, Texas. The Navy is continuing their training program and the prospects of the naval students comple ting their dental studies under this program looks very probable. We were very proud when our class won the school championship in basketball and received a silver engraved loving cup. Our class also strongly sup- ported the college ' s winning baseball club, with several class members receiving school letters. This year ' s Faculty Take-off was better than usual. In all good fun, our class was able to very cleverly imitate our professors, using suitable dialogue in each instance. In preparing for the clinic, our classes this year included: Prosthetics, Operative, Crown and Bridge, Physiology, Pathology, and Pharmacology. At the completion of these courses we felt well qualified for our much anticipated clinic work. SOPHOMORES IN DENTISTRY Top row: Morton O. Alper Wytheville, Va. Clarence R. Boyd Bassett, Va.

Robert Turnage, Dean ' s Committee ANXIOUS to get our career at M. C. V. started, ■ - - - the majority of the Freshman Class convened in June. During the first three months we completed a number of our undergraduate requirements. Then, in October, at the beginning of the new academic year, we gathered the remaining matriculates from the Army and Navy, and started off our first year in Dental School, forty strong. After being introduced to a No. 7 spatula, pink wax, and coecal, we began our formal dental career with the making of the conventional coecal cube. Then on to try our art of carving teeth from wax. Now convinced that dentistry wasn ' t all glamour, we settled down to really hard work. Over in the clinic building we learned in Bio the great importance of the Golden Fluid and compared the chemical body with the physical one, as learned in Anatomy. The first few weeks were taken up with fraternity rushing, their parties and finally pledging, with our first class meeting and the election of officers. Then, all too soon, came exams, followed by the long awaited Christmas holiday. Coming back, in January, we really felt like start- ing the new year off right, thinking we had finally become acclimated to the ways of M. C. V. However, after seeing our new schedule, our illusions fell — two extra courses had been added. Frivolity entered with the Dental School ' s Valentine Party and with the traditional Faculty Take-off, which proved to be quite an affair. After having reduced our cadavers to bones and having a week ' s recess, we again returned to school with a good case of spring fever to start the last quarter of our Freshmen year, both anticipating and fearing the inevitable.

June 16, 1945. — One of those thirty-two students, with two transfers, received their degrees in Pharmacy from the Medical College of Virginia. Four years have elapsed between these two items — four continuous school years — years that seemed both long and short, but, nevertheless, wrought definite changes in the lives of those thirty-two Freshmen students. That first year wasn ' t too difficult. We became accustomed to pursuing our studies in the blistering July heat, and at times World War II seemed very far away. Not so, our Sophomore year. It became plain that no provision was being made for Pharmacy boys to remain in school, so most of those thirty boys who started, made plans to continue their studies only until the Draft Board got around to them — and get around to them it soon did. We struggled through Anatomy, Qualitative, Pharmacognosy, and Dispensing while they left, one by one. The Senior year came, and only one original member and two transfers, who later joined our ranks, were left to receive those coveted degrees. Of that original thirty-two, two are now in Schools of Medicine, two in Schools of Dentistry, and, with the exception of five boys and one girl in civilian life, all the others are now serving their country all over the world. Yes, those four years brought changes. Ours is the smallest four-year class ever to graduate in Phar- macy, the first all girl class, and the first class to graduate who completed all four years under the accelerated wartime program. We who are left consider ourselves very fortunate to have been able to complete our four years of Pharmacy and sincerely hope that until the duration and six months thereafter, we will be able to carry on for all those who left to make V-Dav a realitv lor all of us.

After many months of struggle with basic sciences we finally began studies that embraced the Art of Pharmacy. The heat of the summer made studying difficult at times, but our understanding professors lightened lecture hours with good humor and gave us the encouragement and inspiration needed to make the best of the situation. Looking back on those past few years of flasks, brunettes, dead cats, and campus queens, how well we remember Dr. Thomas ' Why certainly, Dr. Moomaw ' s Play with it a while, Dean Rudd ' s Don ' t put a pencil to paper, Mr. Harrison ' s approximating to the fifth decimal point, and that old familiar echo, Si-i-i-las. We proudly salute the members of our class who have entered the armed forces and hope for their speedy return to M. C. V. As Freshmen we walked timidly, as Sopho- mores, boldly, and as Juniors, bravely. Now, as Seniors, we are ready for the last span of our jour ney, and walk eagerly toward our destinv.

We numbered twenty-four. We are very proud of our class because of its large percentage of male members — after all, these days one expects to see an abundance of petticoats, but we did ourselves proud. Of course, we were awfully sorry to lose John Baronian and Carl Westerman to the Navy. Good luck, boys, and may you enjoy wearing those bell bottoms David Caplan trans- ferred to the University of Southern California — otherwise, our happy little group is still intact. No sooner had we arrived than we put our noses to the grindstone because we found ourrelves fresh out of high school, right bang into the middle of an accelerated program — or should we say super- accelerated? A little after a month had gone by, all of the students of M. C. V. held a super-duper picnic at the Boat Club — this momentous occasion was held on September 10. Shortly after, on September 26, Mortar and Pestle Club repeated the performance. Our Big Moment came on November 29th, when the Pharmacy School gave a dance in the College Social Center. A welcome period in the tired lives of future pharmacists was Christmas vacation, from December 22 to January 2, a slight rest for the weary. It has been an enjoyable and profitable year for us. We ' ve heard a rumor that we are the last class on the accelerated program, so we wish the new class the best of luck — and how we envy you!

On September 1, 1942, a group of potential nurses, with smiling faces and shining eyes, walked through the door of Cabaniss Hall. Some of us had had a year or more at college, but most of us were fresh out of high school. Fresh we were too — without a worry or a care. It didn ' t take us very long to learn that we were pre-clins. Everyone, it seemed, knew who we were and went out of their way to be nice to us. There were parties, teas, and dances, and we, of course, thought that we were the most important people at M. C. V. However, it was about t his time that the class began to diminish, and we realized that we were not so important after all. Up until this time it had been class, class, and more class. Then we donned our white uniforms and began working on the wards. How important flower arrangement and hand-washing seemed that first day! ! ! At the end of our first six months we were given our caps. This was a gala occasion and we were all excited. The Candlelight Ceremony was most impres- sive as was the extra late leave. The next morning the entire class arose a half-hour earlier to be sure their caps were properly adjusted. For days it was hard to walk without a stiff neck; we were in constant fear of losing our dignity somewhere along the hall. The time passed quickly after the first six months. Before we knew it we were Juniors, and then Seniors resplendent with black bands on our caps. Those black bands stood for two years of hard work, and bespoke our right to Senior Privileges. We are about to complete our education at M. C. V. and take our state board examinations. After gradua- tion many of us will go into the Army or the Navy while others will remain at home to do essential nursing. Wherever we are we will never forget these three years at M. C. V. They haven ' t been easy, but thev have been fun.

C. V. as three separate classes. The first in February, the next in June, and the last in September. Because of the increased number of classes of nurses entering M. C. V. each year, our three groups were united into one large Junior Class. When we first entered our training we looked forward to the end of our pre-clinical training. We next anticipated the wonderful sensation of wearing a cap. Now we all are working for and eagerly await our black bands. Our greatest hope is that we each may play our part in upholding the standards of the nursing pro- fession during our Senior year and for the rest of our nursing careers.

Students in this department have a bachelor ' s degree from a college or university of recognized standing. After one year of training at the Medical College they are recognized as Dietitians by the American Dietetics ' Association.

Young women high school graduates are accepted for one calendar year of training. Some are accepted for a second year and others go elsewhere for completion of the two years required by the American Board for entrance to examination for the Degree of R. T. (Registered Technician). The work is essentially practical with day, night, holiday, and week-end duties in the fluoroscopic, radiographic and therapy rooms of both white and colored hospitals in addition to portable work in the wards, private, emergency and operating rooms. Practical experience is supplemented by lectures in anatomy by the resident radi- ologist, physics, diagnosis and therapy by the radiologist, and positioning by a Registered Technician. Through the co-operation of the Department of Pathology, gross anatomy, pathology and medicine are studied at frequent autopsies of patients radiographed previously by the students themselves. In the broadest sense, they are important members of the team practicing clinical medicine. ■fictitsitie STUDENT GOVERNMENT Ben T. Painter, President Edward D. Risdon, Vice-President Joyce Robinson, Secretary Alice MacDonald, Treasurer U e, The -fi umnt ofi Tomottous IT was the evening of July 4, 1942, that a conversation with a senior student of medicine brought to my mind several challenging questions: What kind of alumni will I and my classmates become? Will we go out as good, wholesome advertisements of an institution which gives training for service second to none, or will we leave here resolved never to return or give the place further thought beyond an occasional volley of denouncement? Since that evening these and other closely related questions have led me to formulate criteria which I feel must operate before we become alumni destined to reflect loyalty, good feeling, and training. With the admissions committee rests a great responsibility. Beyond an average scholastic record the most important asset possessed bv the candidate for admission should be the desire for service. Anything placed ahead of this qualitv will of itself stamp a man as unworthy of the status of alumnus of Medical College of Virginia. It should never be forgotten that an acceptance of the appointment to an entering class carries with it a great obligation not only to the public, but to all those who are denied the opportunity of studying medicine. The training and experience of the faculty, its aptitude and desire for teaching, and its attitude toward the student are factors just as important in the evolution of the really loyal alumnus as is the fulfillment of the requirements for admission. No faculty or administration should tolerate that teacher who does not believe and practice the idea that the school is being run for the students, not for the faculty and admin- istrationl And finally, we believe no student can graduate with good feeling toward his Alma Mater unless the administration takes its right and proper place in this educational venture. Knowing how to put into motion the machinerv of a teaching institution is not enough! An administration which has little knowledge and appreciation of the problems confronting the medical student is no better than the mechanic able to run the machine but unable to understand those finer details and adjustments necessary to effect a smooth and efficient performance. No co-operative movement can function if there is all take and no give. Consideration for students of the graduate level will pay rich dividends, not only as we take up the role of the alumni of tomorrow, but even earlier, during the period of training. Ben T.

Scott Gilmer Business Jlanager Herman M. Nachman Editor- in - Ch iej r pHE Editorial Staff of the 1945 X-Ray had - • two objectives — to give the students of M.C.V. a yearbook they could be proud of and to give it to them on time. To accomplish this objective in nine short months under present conditions has not been easy. However, the willingness of the students themselves to help in the task, the untiring efforts of the staff, and the excellent co-operation of the college administration and faculty has made possible the volume you now observe. If in the present or in the future these pages bring to you a moment of joy or recollect for you a memorable event, our efforts shall not have been in vain. HERMAN M.

Gordon ReMine Business Jlanager WITH the world at war this year ' s Skull and Bones Staff has endeavored, not only to keep abreast of the times, but to look into the future of the Medical College of Virginia. Constant contact with the president ' s office, the deans of the four schools and the publicity manager ' s office has enabled the staff to present news covering the college as a whole and the schools individually. Close co-operation with the college publicity manager has, for the first time, made it possible for the Skull and Bones to scoop all important news before it was given the local newspapers for publication. The staff deserves much credit for the excel- lent way in which they have covered the events and happenings of interest to the college students. The progress of the postwar building program, the news from each of the individual schools, the workings of the student body as a whole, faculty news, and the administrative reports have been accurately and faithfully recorded. The editor wishes to express his appreciation to the staff and business manager for the co-operation and assistance they have so con- scientiously given in making the Skull and Bones a weekly publication worthy of the Medical College of Virginia.

Seller Director, Alumni Fund • YOU who are now emerging from the Medical College of Virginia, equipped with the intruments and knowledge which fit you to take your places in the professional world, as ministers to the ills of humanity, face a world of chaos; yet, on the distant horizon, the sunrise of hope and a promise of peace illumine the sky. In this you are more fortunate than the members of the three classes which have preceded you during the period of the present accelerated program. Some of you will be called into the service of our country but it is our fervent hope that the need for your services in foreign theatres of actual war will have passed ere your periods of internships and of subsequent military training will have been completed. Many former graduates of Medical College of Virginia have made the supreme sacrifice in this globe- encircling conflict and it is to those who have not yet entered the conflict, to whom they fling the torch of challenge to carry on, in their names, the work which they began and were not permitted to complete. As loyal Alumni of your Alma Mater and, in the true spirit of the Medical College of Virginia, you will catch up that torch and the challenge which it holds and will carry it to the far corners of the world, ever striving to find newer and speedier methods of alleviating the sufferings of the human race. You will dedicate your lives, your abilities and your intellectual and spiritual resources to the accomplishment of this task, this ambition, as you take your oath of allegiance to your profession and to your country. . . . To i ou from Jailing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high.

Rex Blankinship, M. D. IS THIS PRODUCT COUNCIL ACCEPTED? This is the first question many physicians ask the detail man, when a new product is presented. If the detail man answers, No, the doctor saves time by saying, Come around again when the Council accepts your product. MEAD PRODUCTS CO UNCIL-ON- PHARMACY ACCEPTED: Mead ' s Oleum Percomorphum With Other Fish Liver Oils and Viosterol; Mead ' s Cod Liver Oil Fortified With Percomorph Liver Oil; Mead ' s Viosterol in Halibut Liver Oil (liquid and capsules); Mead ' s Cod Liver Oil With Viosterol; Mead ' s Viosterol in Oil; Mead ' s Stand- ardized Cod Liver Oil; Mead ' s Halibut Liver Oil; Mead ' s As- corbic Acid Tablets; Mead ' s Thiamine Hydrochloride Tab- lets; Mead ' s Niacin Tablets; Mead ' s Menadione in Oil. MEAD PRODUCTS, COUNCIL-ON-FOODS ACCEPTED: Dextri-Maltose Nos. 1, 2, 3; Mead ' s Dextri-Maltose With Yeast Extract and Iron; Pab- lum; Pabena; Mead ' s Cereal; Mead ' s Brewers Yeast (powder and tablets); Mead ' s Powdered Protein Milk; Mead ' s Powdered Lactic Acid Milk No. 2; Alacta; Casec; Sobee; Olac. ALL MEAD PRODUCTS ARE COUNCIL-ACCEPTED If the detail man answers, Yes, the doctor knows that the composition of the product has been carefully verified, and that members of the Council have scrutinized the label, weighed the evidence, checked the claims, and agreed that the product merits the confidence of the physician. The doctor can ask his own questions, and make his own decision about using the product, but not only has he saved himself a vast amount of time but he has derived the benefit of a fearless, expert, fact-finding body whose sole purpose is to protect him and his patient. No one physician, even if he were qualified, could afford to devote so much time and study to every new product. His Council renders this service for him, freely. Nowhere else in the world is there a group that performs the functions so ably served by the Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry and the Council on Foods. Mead Johnson Company cooperates with both Councils, not because we have to but because we want to. Our detail men can always answer: Yes, this Mead Product is Council-Accepted .

A. close professional card when i ng samples of Mead Johnson products to cooper. ching unauthorized persons When the call to arms thundered across the vast Pacific from Pearl Harbor, all America responded, and Weber was among the first to effect a transition from peace-time to full-scale production for Uncle Sam. Foresight in the completion of a re- habilitation program and the complete modernization of the Weber equipment line months before our country entered World War II, placed Weber in a posi- tion to supply modern, down-to-date, dental appliances to our government for urgent dental clinic use. Today, Weber manufactures one of the most complete lines of scientific equipment offered the dental profession . . . Motor Chairs, Foot-Pump Chairs, Shock-Proof X-Rays, Scientific Lights, Cuspidors, Units, Engines and Stools ... all embodying the last word in electrical and mechanical ingenuity, appearance, and utility. IF YOU ENTER THE ARMED SERVICE you will find it a privilege and a pleasure to work with Weber Equipment which has been designed and built to meet rigid Government specifications. IF YOU ENTER PRIVATE PRACTICE you can probably qualify for new Weber Equip- ment (post-war design). Ask your Weber Dealer for particulars — or write us direct. ciWpHf % 0. ST.
