Mrs. Coyle Receptionist mul Secretary Answering the demand of modern therapy in osteopathic medicine, the College of Osteopathic Physicians and Sur- geons opened its Rehabilitation Center on july lst, 1952. The Rehabilitation Center, under the able leadership oh Dr. W. W. W. Pritchard, has become an important adjunct to osteopathic manipulative technique and student physi- cian training. The need for a rehabilitation center has been more evi' dent with each passing year but the space was not available until the new osteopathic clinic was completed on january lst, 1952. Now, still within its first year of operation which included renovation of the old clinic building and procure- ment of necessary equipment, the center is treating some sixty-five patients, ranging in age from six months tc: seventy-six years.
