Mayer Sergeaiit-at-Arms Alt Nassir-Hassoun JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Jovial shouts and lusty greetings were sounded as summer beavers and vacationists met on registration day. Gowns were issued, rubber dams applied, patients assigned, and the clinic wheels began to turn. To an outsider this procedure would have seemed merely routine, but to us each step led into the unknown. The white clinic gowns tranformed us to the heights of bliss, while the first pulp exposure carried us to the depths of despair. Everyone looked confident and profes- sional on the clinic floor, but closer examination would have revealed beads of perspiration and shakine limbs. ' o The one-day-a-week academic classes were a snap, and we discarded the midnight oil so frequently burned during our first two years; but the bombshell of examinations repeatedly ex- ploded in our midst and the books were hastily withdrawn from the shelves. An increased volume of gas hung over the clinic floor this year, but with the able assistance of Dr. Randolph and Company we managed to stay out of the stratosphere. The instructiveness and patience exhibited by the Gaver-Nuttall combine made the downst airs clinic a pleasant place to work. Class elections, the annual School Mixer, and fraternity rushing dotted the first three months. A new extracurricular organization — The Research Study Group — joined the Gorgas Society and the Gaver Seminar. The three-year jaunt to the top floor ended with the close of the first trimester. The long hours of laboratory work in oral pathology, plus the excellent view of the nurses home, were willed to the incoming class. The new year held many surprises for us in the way of examinations, new subjects, local anesthetic injections, x-ray and extraction techniques, and the ever-present clinic floor. We look back with pride and forward with anticipation as the senior year becomes a reality. To each of the seniors we offer our thanks for their help and our best wishes for a long and successful practice. J. Mayer, Historian i 25
