42 Juniors President James Hailey Vice President John Rumley Secretary-Treasurer Darrell Dedrick Left to right: John Rumley, James Hailey and Darrell Dedrick. We have each and severally now reached the fourth plateau, confounding in the process our friends, loved ones, instructors and selves—to some extent. We all now know more and are smarter than we have ever been or will be in our lives—with the possible exception of the summer following graduation when some return to the school as clinical instructors. The past year has been fraught with considerable gnashing of teeth, harder work than most knew existed and no small amount of hooliganism as we sniffed the end of four years in our own little marble and alabaster city within a city—Mother Baylor. The past year was—as in other years—gratifying from the standpoint of class-initiated “things to think about”: the remarkable series when normally timid and reticent Bagwell and Bice asserted themselves in a dental school improvement series. Or again, the Bartee-Banowsky chewing gum studies. The year saw outstanding improvements: in the field of medical and dental science, as one department accepted the germ theory of disease; in administration, as the “machine” was installed to hold our fare in its elliptical favor on one or another. Two classmates (who shall remain unnamed) were seen secretly asking questions of the monster while frantically polishing its knobs. Socially, the year was abundant with fraternal orders sharing the honors. One group (which the year before had sold candy to buy a house) this year sold the house and bought candy. Still another group held its pledge meetings in the second floor phone booth, and yet another stormed the halls of academia emblazoned in quaint uniforms which are said to accentuate the warm togetherness which resides therein. The fraternity spirit is strong at Baylor, however, as is evidenced by a clinical instructor who was overheard repeating “What my fraternity has meant to me.” There is more—far more—to be said, but all is anticlimactic after many long years. At last we have begun the clinical practice of our chosen profession. With great anticipation we enter the last year still singing ““Nobody knows the trouble I see,” but confidently bearing in mind our motto, “Non Carborundum Illegitimi.”
