Gargani. cf Went Be Xenf The first class under the accelerated program had, through two trying years, finally reached the threshold of the Promised Land. 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
