TEMPLE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL It was a difficult and sometimes frustrating task to produce the 50th yearbook of Temple University School of Medicine. The relatively few people who did the bulk of the work ran into an endless problem list which included several staff quitting, serious delays in taking pictures and processing them, mixups in the mailing process for patrons and ads, the typesetting machine breaking down, and all this plus more, too ugly to mention, in the face of a gas shortage and energy crisis that threatened to keep us from meeting to put the book together. The result of all this was that on top of completing our senior year, a few of us wrote the book in January and February and laved it out in shorter time than it would take a streaker to cross Broad Street. It seemed that we would need The Exorcist to get us out of this one! Was it worth it? Would we do it again? The answer is yes on both counts for in spite of the mechanical problems and mental torment wc think the 1974 Skull preserves something. It represents all the work and energy, the memories and feelings, the experiences and place in history of many people involved not in the production of a book but of Temple’s 1974 crop of new physicians. These people . . . teachers, students, patients, families, friends . . . will come and will go for time is not constant. Their memories and the impression they leave will remain and transcend time. Hopefully our effort with all its omissions and imperfections which were uncontrollable, by its many words and pictures, will convey an appreciation of people and of life. Ralph Gallo Editor-in-Chief
