Today, throughout the civilized world, he is the acknowledged discoverer of anesthesia and his name is listed in the bright galaxy of great benefactors of mankind. Imposture cannot be permitted to usurp the place of merit; ignorance and presumption cannot overtop the emanations of true genius, and all the promptings of a generous, noble, self-sacrificing spirit; artifice, chicanery, and mendacity cannot stand before sincerity, rectitude, truth, and honor. The old adage It is better late than never applies most happily to the appreciation the dental world and mankind in general have indicated in their regard for Horace Wells. It has been an old story, it will be a tale of every age, and quite likely it is part of the rough and rugged road that all new thoughts, all new departures, all new discoveries, all new inventions must travel. It was also thus with the great Horace Wells, who found little comfort after he had discovered anesthesia. His trials began the day when, by his own sacrifice, he demonstrated that human science could master and control pain. He was ridiculed, publicly humiliated, and ignored by many of his profession as one who 1J286 ' ouie aujfttng Gas. •HoraccWciis J iScoveTfn- of 1: m Imm - P Bwte :- — .-: A« H HRpp ' v H H ' Bn lllll - ■ M ■ y - ' a.,.«.i ' ;- ' ' tr was trifling with the supernatural, and classed with the empirics. Others, who faintly appreciated the greatness of his discovery, hoped to rob him of his credit, and daily he was tortured by the unkind and slanderous comments made of both himself and his new discovery. He died, uncomforted by the profession he loved and honored. A gift thus bestowed upon humanity was so wonderful, so priceless that had pagan Greece or Rome been so beholden to a man, he would have been elevated by the esteem of a grateful populace to the rank of a beneficent deity. Temples would have been graced with his statues, and incense burned to signalize the great benefaction. His death awakened the populace to his great contribution. In this, the one-hundredth year of his discovery, the work of Wells lives on in everlasting tribute to his great vision. Tablets have been unveiled, statues have been erected, resolutions and tributes have been recorded, and praises sung for this dentist who so bountifully deserved the good will and the earnest plaudits of a grateful world. Mario H. Colecchi eJicaihn TO Edward C. Dobbs, D.D.S., F.A.C.D. As a teacher, author, research worker, and student activity worker, Dr. Dobbs is respected not only by our students but by the entire dental profession. After gradua- tion from the University of Maryland Dental School in 192 9, he entered the University of Rochester Medical School on a Rockefeller Fellowship in Biochemistry and Pharmacology. When he completed his work there, he returned to the University of Maryland to become Pro- fessor of Pharmacology. Dr. Dobbs is a member of the American Dental Asso- ciation, tlie American Pharmaceutical Association, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the International Association for Dental Research, the National Formulary Committee, the Council of Dental Therapeutics, the Maryland Biological Society, Xi Psi Phi, Gorgas Odonto- logical Society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon and Sigma Xi. Even with these many activities. Dr. Dobbs has found time to become author of a textbook and act as financial advisor to the Mirror. It is with admiration and respect for him as a teacher, author, and research worker in dental science that we dedicate this volume to Dr. Dobbs. Pfiesmni PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND HARRY CLIFTON BYRD GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND HON. HERBERT R. O ' CONOR Efficient, valuable, irreplaceable, ener- getic, and dynamic are but a few of the many words which have been used to describe Dean Robinson. Since 1924, when Dr. Robinson became Dean of the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, he has been one of the most active contributors in the promotion of the dental profession. Dr. Robinscn was born on April 16, 188 3, near Clarksburg, West Virginia. He was educated in the public schools of West Virginia. After three years of preliminary teaching he matriculated at the Teachers ' Training School, Marshall College, from which he was graduated in 1908. He took post-graduate work at the University of West Virginia. After teaching mathematics in a high school in New Martinsville, West Virginia, for three years, he entered the University of Maryland Dental School. In 1914, as the Gold Medal Winner, he received his D.D.S. degree. He was immediately appointed to the Operative Departinent, where he remained until 1915 when he resumed private practice. Six weeks later, he returned upon the request of the School that he resume his duties as a member of the faculty. Dr. Robinson ' s activities have been so numerous that it would be difficult to name them all. His greatest honor, one that can be thoroughly appre- ciated by those not associated with the profession as well as by those who are, was his election to the Presidency of the American Dental Association in 1943. His keenness of mind, his remarkable energy, and his driving determination and am- bition for the promotion of dentistry have won for Dr. Robinson admiration and respect among all those who have known him. can DEAN OF BALTIMORE COLLEGE OF DENTAL SURGERY J.

Bryce Smith Student Representative Marsden F. Stamp After much thought and consideration it was decided that the write-up for the Class of ' 46 was to be different from that of any preceding freshman class. It would not recount that one hundred and three men and one young lady took the initial step toward the completion of their professional careers on January 4, 1944 — that the Navy commanded 2 3 and the Army 64 of the men — that it was the first class in the history of the School to be entirely in the specialized training program sponsored by the Navy and Army — that their Dean, Dr. J. Ben Robinson, addressed the class the opening day of school — that there were one hundred of the one hundred and three students answering roll at the end of the first semester. Ruction 1.

[14 Instead it would recall those small things which the class itself would enjoy recalling in the years to come. It woud take a volume to recount these, and there is just space enough for a few of them: Dr. Hahn ' s first test (unan- nounced) ; Dr. Wilkerson ' s step-ladder; nick-names acquired — Glutie, Dead-end, Rebel, Little King, Jerkin, The Finger, Two-shot; Cliff ' s ten-cent club sandwiches; What ho! cried the King!; Smitty ' s party; Marty ' s first Balti- more date; frat smokers during rush season; Dr. Aisenberg ' s special lecture on upperclassmen gas. These are a few of the things which the class wants to remember. The class need not be reminded of those many sleepless nights, Gray ' s Anatomy, and the Histology practicals. As we, the Class of ' 46, complete our freshman year, we extend our congratulations and best wishes to the seniors and hope that they will always remember the many points received at the expense of the freshmen.

Moses Sergeant-at-Arms Leonard Nardozza It was without deep regret that we left the stench of the anatomy lab and divested ourselves of the ever-present sense of impending doom so characteristic of the freshman experience. Sixty-two strong we entered the sophomore year in November, ' 43, with faltering footsteps, but with the high resolve to assume the added responsibilities of being privates in the Army of the United States, and to tackle seriously the job at hand. And so it was with ideals such as these that we launched into the story of inflammation and the depressive action of the barbiturates. Even the vast myriad of complex, physiologic, graphic charts presented by Dr. Oster did not stop us, that is, for any great length of time. The sense of repetition was developed strongly within us as Dr. Warner casually complimented us on our castings and in the same breath requested us to do it again. We soon learned that line angles and point angles do have their place in operative dentistry and were constantly reminded of the fact by Drs. Randolph and Trommer. These temporary inconveniences, however, did not daunt us in the least, for with our usual high dignity of purpose we smoothed the rough spots and kept our eyes elevated to the Junior Year. Now as this second year is drawing to a close we find ourselves sneaking into the Clinic to see what is in store for us, and to pray silently for the safety of our future patients. How constructive our prayers are will depend largely upon the knowledge acquired in the past nine months. We feel confident that in the coming Junior year . we shall reap the rewards of serious endeavor. Group 1. Left to Right First row: M. Greenstein, L. Towlen, M. MorcUi, J. Cappuccio, M. Colecchi, J.

Anxiously, fearfully, and with very little braggadocio we tried on the new and attractive white gowns and then cautiously made our way to the clinic floor beneath the doubtful looks of the instructors and the condescending looks of the Seniors — Marquis de McCarthy, we are here. The staccato banging of our falling cases was enough to unnerve the none too steady seniors and the even less placid natures of the helpless patients. The big push was on — fatalities at this writing consist of one crushed toe from one big box, suffered by one Stan Oring. Turning to the more frivolous side of our existence, it is worthy to mention that a super-scintillating dance was run by the class at the Merchants ' Club on April 29, 1944. This fact can be well attested to by the Freshmen, the Sophomores and especially the Seniors. History, too, was made during the past year. The Junior Class Family was increased by two — one a future oral surgeon contributed by John Mc Williams; the other a dental hygienist-to-be, by John Keighly. Two worthy and admired members of our faculty, Dr. McCarthy and Dr. Grempler, were unable, because of ill health, to complete the year with us. Their instruction and their friendship were sorely missed. To a man, we look forward to greeting them, happy and healthy, in our senior year. There has been much talk of late that a definite need has arisen for closer cooperation between the Army and Navy. Little such cooperation has been exhibited here at School. In its stead there has grown up in both groups a healthy esprit de corps leading toward a friendly rivalry. It is difficult to enumerate the usual run of dances, quizzes, and Army and Navy formations, and to describe the humorous and interesting circumstances that have surrounded these occasions. It hasn ' t been an unusual year as far as Junior years go, but to us individually new vistas have been opened and we have become endowed with a strong desire to master cur profession. We march forward on the road to graduation and to the fight against the common foe. r 19 1 , : ' - :M ;; tr- First row: N. Baker, R. Voorhees, P. Weber, B. Brawlcy, J. O ' Hearn, M. Grossbart, J.

Inman, Jr. Vice-President Saul Goodman Treasurer Edward Wheeler Secretary Casimir Sheft Historian Robert Shapiro Sergeant-at-Arms Carl Catani Student Representative Edward Cullen In September, 1941, a new group of would-be Doctors of Dental Surgery descended upon the corner of Lombard and Greene. This group of enthusiastic youths simmered and bubbled in the cauldron of dental science, boiled out, and emerged as the B.C.D.S. graduating class of 1944. We embarked upon our careers as dental students with various reactions to the School: What, no campus? . . . So this is the corner of Lombard and Greene Streets with which I have been corresponding! . . . Where is the Anatomy lab? . . . Where can a guy find a place to sleep? . . . Did you register yet? . . . We settled down to what promised to be an ordinary freshman year — and then came the December 7 ... an accelerated program ensued. The hot summer months found us toiling away in the labs. (Toiling? Beg pardon, this was sophomore year). . . . B section gets all the breaks . . . What ' s all dis stuff floatin ' around dat we ' re gonna have a English course? . . . Think the Army ' ll take over? . . . We were commissioned as 2nd Lieutenants and Ensigns on a non-active basis . . . Can ' t wait till I get up on the clinic floor, and sink my first bur in a real tooth . . . What shall I do. Dr. Deems; his gums — er, his gingivae are bleeding? Junior year and 700 points. It ' ll be a cinch. Sitting on the bench is so dull. Wish I had a patient. Oh well, I have both time and company; but if I keep up the way I ' ve been doing, I should have about 200 points by the end of the year . . . Wish I were a senior. Did I ever tell you that you are the most wonderful girl I ever met? How about coming down to the clinic sometime? Hey fellows — latest rumor, the Army ' s taking over. I heard it from someone who overheard Dr. McCarthy telling so-and-so. . . . Fort Meade? What is it, a summer camp? Summer Camp, H — 1. This is the Army. I ' m not scrubbing these mess-hall floors for fun you know. Then back to School in uniform. A classmate was taken from us by death in our Junior year. Although he did not realize his ambition to become a dentist, Dave Shapiro will forever remain a member of the Class of 1944. We don ' t know how we did it but here we are. Seniors at last. More Army stuff — Formation at 0800 . . . Oh, why didn ' t I join the Navy; they have such swell uniforms too. Rumors and Gas — What a combustive combination. But we really settled down this year. Lots of work. No time for play. Oh yeah? Where did you get that nice Pim- lico sunburn? Many hurdles to take: Prosthetics, Crown and Bridge, Operative, et al. The services played havoc with our instructing staff. Hats off to the remaining faculty members for doing more than their share. This senior year is no picnic. Wish I were a Junior again. Did that come out of me? 22 ] Honorary Class President Stanley Dosch The women ' s auxiliary is increasing with leaps and bounds. It seems as though every time we turn around someone else is getting married. It must be a sign of increasing age, and not the only sign of age we see. What do you comb your hair with, a towel? These pants must have shrunk since last year. What, Softball again? I haven ' t been able to move since the last game. But you ought to see us scrambling around the senior lab. We ' re all champs at that. Well, men, we ' re taking the hurdles in stride now. One by one, two by two, one-half by one-half; but however it may be, the end is in sight. Leave us no longer pretend. We ' re in the stretch, racing neck and neck with our requirements. We wonder if we can stick it out — Oh for a drink of water — or, better stilly beer. Say, is it unprofessional to drink beer? Yes, we are nearly dentists. Upon graduation we shall be the first class to complete the fully accelerated program. It has been a tough grind, but Uncle Sam will have our best services one year ahead of schedule. Our present is concerned with the war, but our future is con- cerned with the days following the war — days when our profession will aid in building a better world and maintaining everlasting peace.

The Standards of the Gotgas Odontological Society were amply upheld by the election of twenty-five new members of high scholarship and character to the organization. The total membership was brought to fifty-eight. The neophytes, representing the top forty per cent of the Junior class, were initiated into the Society at a dance held at the Merchants Club on April 5, 1944. The affair was a very enjoyable one. The activities of Gorgas were closed with the dinner-dance in the Florentine Room of the Lord Baltimore Hotel on July 15, 1944. The toastmaster was Dr. Sidney Liberman. Gardner P. H. Foley was the speaker of the evening. Two graduates of the School were elected to honorary membership in the Society. They were Dr. Thomas J. Bland and Dr. James H. Ferguson.

Ide STUDENT ACTIVITY COUNCIL The Council, now a permanent feature of the School ' s smooth-running administrative system, is more than ever proving its value during the period of the accelerated program. Since its organization several years ago, it has made important and lasting contributions to the student welfare in maintaining the Student Lounge, sponsoring the annual Mixer Dance, and adjusting student pro blems. The student members are elected yearly through the regular class elections. Their increasing enthusiasm and diligence have made the functions of the Council known and respected by the entire Student Body. As a medium that affords opportunities for representatives of the faculty and of the students to discuss problems, the Student Council has developed into a very effective liaison organization. [53 [Jk Often 0. mefi y)enmSemm3 Harry Gaver Chairman •V X -ner David Abrams Secretary This organization was formed on February 17, 1942, as a memorial to Oren H. Gaver, D.D.S., F.A.C.D., who died March 28, 1940. The purposes of the organization are: ( 1 ) to encourage and stimulate thought and activities along lines of research related to dentistry; (2) to acquaint its members with the latest developments in dental science; (3) to render its members more adept in the presentation of scientific papers; (4) to promote a more rational insight into problems which confront us, as future members of the dental profession. This year the officers consist of Oren H. Gaver, Jr., Chairman, and David A. Abrams, Secretary. Two very interesting programs have been presented this year by the Seminar. The first was given by Drs. Grant Ward and James Pyott on The Use of Radium in Appli- cators. Dr. Ward discussed malignancies and their treatment in general; Dr. Pyott demonstrated his Pyott radium applicators by means of slides and models. The second program was presented by Commander Gene Christianson of the Bethesda Naval Hospital. His subject was New Forms of Oral Surgery. Several interesting slides and a motion picture made this one of the most successful meetings in the history of the Seminar. First row: F. Farris, H. Gilbert, C. Gerber , D. Dosh, J. Beard, A.

Schwartz [55 LIBRARY BALTIMORE COLLEGE OF DENTAL SURGERY 0: mcifii Another year has passed, and another group of Alpha Omegans have a ttained the goal for which we are all striving. As we look back we begin to realize that, although many difficulties confronted the members of all classes, the year did pass quickly, more quickly than we had expected. Throughout the term the Alpha Omega Fraternity was always ready to aid its members in every way possible. When freshmen or sophomores developed scholastic difficulties, there was always someone available capable of enhght- ening them. Then for the bewildered juniors Ed Wheeler along with other seniors was willing to relate the do ' s and don ' ts of clinical operations. As a means of relaxation, the fraternity held many dances and parties to which all members of the school were invited. These usually proved successful in providing everyone with the needed Saturday night fun. To gain the much needed exercise that the school deprived us of, Coach Bernie Wilkins accepted anyone, regardless of condition, into his baseball team. During the year we discovered many talents that some of our members possessed aside from dentistry. Bulitt learned to knock even the fastest bat out of the air with only one broom stroke. Liftig ' s remarkable poetry has placed him next to Shelley and Keats in the eyes of all of our students. He has turned down several contracts. B. L. Brown had a part-time job as a radio announcer. It is said that he can get more words per minute than any two men. To date Perlman has directed practically every Symphony orchestra in the country, from his stand next to the radio of course.

Alson The past year has seen our fraternity successful in its social, athletic, and scholastic activities. We ushered in the new school year with a series of get together dances. A smoker, beer party, and dance were held in honor of the freshman class. On March 2 5 the halls of the Stafford Hotel echoed the gayety of a dance held jointly by the graduate nd undergraduate chapters of the fraternity. From all reports, including one by the hotel manager, the affair was concluded to have been a complete success. We repeated the performance on August 5, at which time we bid farewell to our seniors and welcomed to our midsts a new group of fraters. Refurnishing the rooms, and applying new coats of paint, has added to the attractive- ness of our fraternity house. The most important addition to the house consisted in the establishment of a Memorial Room to remind the members of the fraters who have passed away. Along the educational lines the fraternity was active. Dr. Kabnick, our brother from New York, appeared before us on April 16 to inform us of the new advances made in Crown and Bridge Prosthesis. The fraters, as well as many members of the faculty, found the talk most enlightening. Dr. Blum, another of our New York brothers, on May 24, spoke before us on Oral Surgery. Athletically we were not to be outdone. Our Softball team, piloted by Maurice Greenstein, was one of the strongest in the league. The past year has been one which will supply many fond memories in the years to come. None of us will easily forget the dances, the induction of new members, the beer parties, the smokers, the boat rides, the painting of walls, the carpeting of floors, the lectures by our now famous brothers, the marriage of frater Gottfried, the ball games, and, last, but not least, the parting of our senior class. The year was indeed a good one. 61 iXiJ ' - Bar roM ; S. Pruzansky, :iA ' l. - M. Luxenberg, B. Menasce, B. Grcenstein, J. Cohen, B. Pollack, N. Bookstaver, J. Brody, H. Alson, B. Gottfried, B.

There are six charter members, all of whom are living, who are proud of their endeavor and gratified with the progress and development of the fraternity. Delta Chapter was the first subordinate chapter to be organized, the event occurring on February 21, 1893, at the B.C.D.S. In 1923 Delta Chapter merged with Eta Chapter at the University of Maryland Dental School. Previous to this, however, the Alpha Beta Chapter of the Baltimore Medical College Dental Department had merged with Eta in 1912. Our fraternal obligations are those of fellowship, scholarship .ind morality and in fulfilling these obligations we make Xi Psi Phi stronger and a credit to the University of Maryland.

A. 89 Where Better Practice Indicates PfitCISIOn .,, T-: . flTTflCHIHftllS - - The use of Precision Attachments is indicated in this case because they eliminate need of a cumber- some continuous clasp across an- teriors from cuspid to 1st bicuspid, which would be required in a clasp case in addition to clasps on th e cuspid, 1st bicuspid and 2nd molar. Therefore, attachments are more comfortable to the patient and more esthetic, avoiding the dis- play of gold inevitable in clasps on cuspid and 1st bicuspid. When Attachments Arc Indicated, Specify BRDWN PROXIMAL CONTACT ATTACHMENTS • Built - in Proximal Contact. Also made in Plain Shank Type. • Ten standardized, interchangeable sizes. • Strong — Made in one piece, no seams or solder. • Closed bottom in male section makes insertion and removal of restoration easy for the patient. • Simple to adjust. Use any sharp instru- ment. • Springy, positive retention. Twelve Design Charts of Attachment Cases with Descriptive and Technical Literature on request ONE axiom has come out of the debate over the relative merits of clasp and attachment restorations — that neither type is a universal best. The important advantages of attachments are: 1 — Life of the abutment tooth is greatly pro- longed because, since the attachment is within the contour of the tooth, the stress applied is in line with its long axis; and also because pos- sible erosion under a clasp is eliminated. 2 — • Esthetics is enhanced by eliminating a show of clasps, particularly on anterior teeth. 3 — Attachments assure much more comfort to patient because of greater stability in a pre- cision attachment and because all material on surfaces of teeth is eliminated. The case illustrated is one in which doctors agree better practice indicates attachments for the reasons given. Generally speaking attachments should be used: • when the number and location of clasps re- quired will form a too cumbersome or unes- thetic appliance; • when an abutment tooth lacks normal sta- bility; a precision attachment will by itself immobilize the tooth without the addition of the indirect retainers necessary in clasp work; • when the abutment teeth already accommo- date the required inlays or crowns. tAs makers of attachments, we are as anxious to discourage their I use where contra-indicated as to encourage it where indicated.

G. P. H. FOLEY, M. A. THE OF 1944 BALTIMORE COLLEGE OF DENTAL SURGERY DENTAL SCHOOL, UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND BALTIMORE, MARYLAND Dear Fellows: As editor of the Mirror, I ' ve indebted myself to a lot of people around the school. If it hadn ' t been for the assistance of these people who helped so much in getting the book together, it is a sur e thing it wouldn ' t have been out in time for graduation. At the top of the list of people to whom we are indebted is Mr. Foley. There isn ' t one page in the Mirror on which he did not help, advise and check. The student editors are the next on the list, but you know who they are from reading the book. Mrs. Davis has put in a lot of time typing every word in the book. This was really a tough job judging by some of the handwriting she had to read. Miss Ezekiel has taken some swell pictures and worked hard to rush these through in time to make the book. Mrs. Morgan did a splendid job in designing the cover for us. The printer of the book, Mr. Penny; the engraver, Mr. Love ; and the photographer, Mr. Christopher, have helped immeasurably to straighten out the many difficulties we experienced this year. Dr. McCarthy and Dr. Dobbs have been right with us throughout the year with their adminis- trative assistance. To all of the people I ' ve already mentioned and to the many other people who are responsible for the Mirror I would like to express my deepest thanks . Edward Hoffman ..
