 Let us treat the men and women well: treat them as if they were real: perhaps they are.” —Emerson S. PHILIP BRALOW Here is a great believer in the old proverb, It is a great folly to wish to be exclusively wise.” Sockey is one of the great mixers of the class, but this does not insinuate that study has been neglected. Undergraduate days were spent at Penn State, where he majored in chemistry an .oology. Extra-curricular interests are indeed varied, as evidenced by his list of activities: Swimming, lacrosse, sailing, horseback riding, travelling, camp counsellor, attendant at Philadelphia State Hospital, and junior intern at the Physicians’ and Surgeons’ Hospital. General practice is most interesting to Sock, and we are sure that his good-fellowship and understanding of his subject will combine to produce success. Internship—Michael Reese Hospital. Chicago. 111. Twenty-three

 ........ .• . ''Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.” —Shakespeare SCHUYLER M. BISSELL In Sky we all recognize the quintessence of modest achievement. At undergratuate school Bis was president of Delta Upsilpn Fraternity, stepped out of character briefly during freshman year to star on the boxing team and in 1942 had his A.B. degree conferred in biology. In 1940 and ’41 travels throughout the United States and Canada enriched Sky’s well-rounded background still further, while academic and social success in medical school are evidenced through his election to presidency of Babcock Surgical Society and active membership in Phi Chi Fraternity. Coining to us via the Staunton Military Academy and the University of Virginia, leaving us to intern at famous Presbyterian Hospital in Chicago, III., we bid adios to Sky with benedictions.

BUCKLEY Buck graduated from Penn State with a B.S. degree and something most of us wish we had a few of—a publication. “The Separation of Cd and Cu by Precipitation.’’ He managed to keep more than busy enough by active membership in the Chemistry Club. Glee Club and I. M. A., as well as honorary Sigma Sigma Sigma. His amicability belying the time-honored aphorism of “red-hair—bad temper”—we know and will remember John for his “entente cordialc.” John’s trend is toward surgery at the present writing. Internship—St. Mary’s Hospital. Twenty-four
