May the love for my art actuate me at all times, may neither avarice, nor miserliness, nor the thirst for glory, nor for a great reputation engage my mindg for the enemies of Truth and Philanthropy could easily deceive me and make me forgetrful of my lofty aim of doing good to Thy children, May I never see in the patient anything but a fellow creature in pain. Grant me strength, time, and opportunity always to correct what l have acquired, always to extend its domaing for knowledge is immense and the spirit of man can extend infinitely to enrich itself daily with new requirements. Today he can discover his errors of yesterday and tomorrow he may obtain a new light on what he thinks himself sure of today. O God, Thou hast appointed me to watch over the life anrl death of Thy creaturesg here I am ready for my vocation.

SHAPIRO EDGAR GRIM MILLER, JR. 1893-1955 KENNETH B. TURNER 1901-1955 B IN MEMOR IAM... Adolph Elwyn Edgar Grim HE sudden death on June 9, 1955 of Dr. Adolph Elwyn brought to an end a lifetime of devoted service. He was perhaps one of the best known members of thc teaching staff of the College of Physicians and Surgeons both in length of service which dates back to 1918, and in his wonderful ability to present compli- cated material clearly without confusing the student with unessential details. Dr. Elwyn will be remembered for his many accomplishments and admirable attri- butes, for his writings, for his qualities as a teacher and for his fine personal characteristics. li' is impossible to imagine first year Neuroanatomy without Dr. EIwyn's masterful and energetic description of the pyramidal tract, his characteristic little cough and tapping pointer, and most of all, his thirst quenching from the water pitcher. Medical students to come will miss the great teacher, good friend and great man which the Class of 1956 was privileged to know. Miller, Jr. ORN in Gettysburg, Pa., Dr. Miller graduated from Gettysburg College at the early age of 18. His graduate work was carried out in Columbia University, where he received the degree of Ph.D. in Biological Chemistry in 1913. With the exception of one year, 1913-1914, which he spent in Chicago as lnstructor at the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois, his subsequent career was passed entirely at P 8. S, where he reached the rank of full professor of Biochemistry in 1935. In 1953 he became Dean of the Graduate Faculties, an appointment which involved his departure from P 81 S. However, he continued to contribute to the lec- tures in biochemistry for students of medicine. Throughout the years he was universally regarded as the most eFfective teacher on our Faculty, for he possessed not only encyclopedic knowledge but a gift for exposition. His wise counsel was always available to students and colleagues. Through his utimely death, all at P 8. S have lost a beloved friend. Kenneth B. Turner NATIVE of Lynchburg, Va., Dr. Turner received a B.A. from Hamilton College in 1922 and his M,D. in 1926 from Harvard Medical School. He came to Presby- terian Hospital as an intern in 1926, and rose through successive appointments to become Director of Cardiology last year. He was an attending physician on Medical Service and an associate professor of clinical medicine at Columbia University. He had an unusual capacity for organization and had vision and imagination, not only for research, but in medical education and administrative affairs. He started the Group Clinic in 1946, reoriented the lectures to third-year students, and last year, completely reorganized the laboratory of electrocardiology. Rounds with Dr. Turner on the Medical Service were enjoyed by patient and student alike. His kindness and understanding was felt by all, while his eager teach- ing was ambrosia to the thirsting student. lt's strange not to see Dr. Turner's gray hair in the second row of the eighth floor amphitheater during CPC and Team Rounds. His sudden death on October 9, 1955 has been felt keenly by all in the Medical Center family. 9 JV ,J ' President: Vice Pres Secrefciry: Treasurer , f Nelson Corlwell Mary .lane Jesse Dick Prescott Bill Burkes 44'- 'HWY is X 1 Q I, Q 0 FIRST YEAR Q 1 -er Front row-Sheldon Wolf, Martin Smith, Richard Linwood, Sheila Solomon, Barbara Hulka, Orlando Phil Miller, D.

OR ol years the P 81 S Club has presented a program to meet the social, spiritual and recreational needs of the whole student body. This year its oFticers have been Ralph Richter, President, Charles Bucknam, Vice President, and Howard Rofiwarg, Secretary. Mr. Edwin M. Barton has served as Director of Student Activities. The Athletic program led by Howard Nay and Warren Seides includes an un- defeated varsity basketball team, squash team, and intramural tournaments. The Concert Committee, Byron Hardin chairman, sponsored four recitals by leading artists to capacity Bard Hall audiences. The Annual Christmas Party and the Spring Festival were the social highlights of the school year. Coffee dances, picnics and a square dance were held by the Bard-Maxwell Committee with Robert Reiss, Chairman. The P Sr S Club is proud also of its Student-Faculty Dinners and discussions, monthly theater parties with Robert Gilbert in charge, bi-monthly movies-Ned Brown, chair- man, and its annual book and clothing drive for Korean Medical Schools led by Clyde Wu. The weekly Vesper Services under the leadership of Charles Donaldson have been an outstanding contribution to the Medical Center. They 'featured nationally known clergymen and educators and a 40 voice choir with Al Mathies, director. In March, another Forum on Religion and Medicine was held with delegates from many theo- logical and medical schools attending. Behind the P 81 S Club program stands an active faculty Board of Advisors with Dr. George A. Perera, Chairman, Dr. Aura E. Severinghaus, Vice-Chairman, and Dr. William S.

The social year included several strikingly successful monthly Bard Hall dances which climaxed with the inter-chapter Aesculapian Ball early in March. Conspicu- ously involved in the party department were impresarios Riddlon and White, cork- drawers Hovat and Hofreuter, and publicity-planner Ted Bransome. Our semi-annual intra-fraternity free drinks parties were as usual overwhelmingly attended and have become established as a fraternal hallmark. At the 63rd annual initiation banquet of Iota Chpter the new members were formally welcomed by Dr. Yale Kneeland, Jr. ilota '26l whose sketches on the progress of medicine and medical education were received with great enthusiahm by all. Taking past gatherings and projected plans into consideration, it will have been a year of many happy associations in Nu Sigma Nu. 74 HIS year the Upsilon Sigma chapter of Phi Chi featured two excellent dinner meetings and a number of informal fraternity parties. Phi Chi at P 8. S traditionally sponsors a series of dinner meetings throughout the year at which time outstanding individuals from the medical world and without are invited to attend and address the chapter. Dr. George Humphreys ll, Valentine Mott Professor of Surgery at P 8. S, was the fraternity's guest at the Fall meeting. Dr. Humphrey's talk entitled Some Moss Gathered by a Rolling Surgeon was based on visits to medical schools in foreign countries. ln presenting a survey of medical education throughout the world, the surgeon took his audience on a kodachrome slide tour of many interesting South American, Asian and Middle Eastern countries. The speaker of our Winter Dinner meeting was Dr. Charles M. Steer, Associate Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology. who spoke on the history of the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center. Besides being an outstanding gynecologist, Dr. Steer is also a scholar of medical history and his amusing discussion of the trials and tribulations that P815 has faced down through the years made for a wonderfully enjoyable evening.

Alpha Omega Alpha LPHA OMEGA ALPHA is the national medical honor society which has had an active chapter at P 8- S since l907. The initials A.O.A. are derived from the first letters of the three Greek wards meaning To be worthy to serve the suHering. The society generally aims to foster the scientific and philosophic aspects of medicine. It encourages research and attempts to recognize those who have made a particular contribution to medicine or its allied fields. Twice each year a formal banquet is held, where candidates chosen on the basis of scholarship, in the broadest sense, as well as promise of intellectual growth, expectancy of leadership, and moral character, are inducted into the society. A traditional part of the ceremonies is the induction of a physician who has achieved prominence in research or practice as an honorary member, as well as an address by a distinguished speaker. 77 OFFICERS President Edgar Haber Vice-President Edith M. Bramwell Secretary Hans H. Baruch Treasurer Marvin P. Jassie Banquet Manager Gerald M. Litzky l The Honor Committee HIS marks the first year that the entire student body at P 81 S is under one unified student initiated, student written, and student run Honor System, an accomplish- ment for which the Class of T956 can feel iustifiably proud. The idea of a student Honor Code began four years ago when several members of the Class of i955 attempted to establish an honor system in their class. As with all new ideas and changes in tradition, their eFforts met with some resistance. However, the Class of l956, quick to show their great wisdom even as first year students, quickly accepted the plan the next fall. Each successive incoming class has adopted some form of an honor code with the result that last year every class was functioning under an Honor System. In order to unify these various systems and to establish a school-wide tradition, the Student Council created a committee composed of the various class officers assigned to the task of writing a new Honor Code and a system for its regulation. This new Honor Code has now been accepted by all classes at P 81 S, has received the blessing of the faculty, and will automatically be in effect for all future classes. Unlike the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, this Honor Code did not spring forth fully formed, but will need certain changes as experience dictates. However, the basic form now is in operation thanks to the continued interest and hard work of the members of the Class of l956.

HE Student-Faculty Social Committee is a group of students which plans the cock- tail party and dinner that precedes the meetings of the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Society. These informal cocktail parties provide an opportunity for student and faculty to meet on a nonacademic basis, and ore attended enthusiastically by all. HE P 8- S varsity basketball team has played close to twenty games during the past three years the record is still clean--no losses. The opposition has been pro- vided largely by other medical schools-Cornell, NYU, New York Medical College, Long Island Medical School, and Yale. The team has also played various teams from service outfits and other graduate schools. Perhaps the most memorable contest was the game with Sing Sing lplayed at Sing Singl in which our boys came through with a very close win over the prisoners. With the help of the P 81 S Club the varsity schedule will continue to improve in the coming years, and it may even provide com- petition stiff enough so that P 8. S may lose a game. Note should be made that Howard Nay, who was absent for the picture, has taken a large part in his four years in organizing the team and schedule, and has been outstanding in his efforts on the team to maintain the winning recorr. l Team ,- t i ' 'W FP - ' . -1 ' 5. y fl .1 f at Basketball E' N .X .

HE Omega Club is a society composed of forty-five undergraduates from the sec ond, third and fourth year classes, faculty members and about six hundred gradu ate physicians practicing throughout the country. Founded in l892, its activities have alternated between academic and social functions. During the past few years they have been chiefly social and have consisted of several cocktail parties each year and an annual banquet. The President is Harvey Zarem I956 is the tenth anniversary of the founding of that renowned P 81 S singing group, the Bards. Since the idea of a fraternity of medical minstrels was first con ceived, the Bards traditionally hold tryouts in the early part of each year and elect a small group of first-year men to replace the graduating members. The latter men become part of an active Bards Alumni who ioin with student members several times each year at the Christmas Party, and the annual alumni dinner to renew old songs and old times. The Bards spread their entertaining abilities far and wide by singing at various women's colleges throughout the East. They have in the past made record albums which have met with wonderful success. A toast to the Bards: Long life to a group which combines song, laughter, wine, women-and medicine with outstanding ease. -... .61 ,WL c. ,..,.,.,. ,TZ . Y -gm, -,, Y age, Bards ' A 7 we fe? .
