speala in Dr. Smillieys Public lleatth Lectures as Alvord delivered a scholarly ctassihca- tion ol types of alcoholics. Dr. Smillie, meanwhile, was sending us on exploratory junlcets to various parts of the Soft Underlnelly ol New Yorlc, which were reported to the group at the end ol: the year. A sailor lrom Rhode lsland heard that a soldier was calling on his wile, and hurried home in time to catch l'licl4s matting a Hrevisit..H The two exchanged words, which lelt the sailor reassured, while l'licl4s had his Gt series repeated. Redner, meantime, was follow- ing his Hcaseu through every har on the lfast side. 'the perils of Ethanol poisoning were graphically lnrought home to us when one memher ol the class was hospitalized with Paroxysmal Auricular l:ilxritlation. Hdty, Nestler fought valiantly against intractalale infec- tious mononucelosis, and, thanlas to expert nursing care, was soon ahle to undertalte a prolonged convalescence at the t5t5 ltealth Spa. tlauser continued to sleep, hut showed signs ol' walvening lay getting married. So we entered the fourth and last year, with the hope that what the Physicists say about osmosis had seine solid foundation, and with the remarlr of one professor that our only worry in the Fourth Year was our liver. Our histories and progress notes lyegan to contain such conlldent remarlas as UWC are ol the opinion that -U and Ml was called to see the patient at ten o'cloclx.n Most ol? us, however, rememlner moments when our con- lqidenee was shalcen hy the questions ol: mothers in Pediatrics, which we answered with calm exterior and confused mind. Potter Row set up shop in MQ, and the would-he olasteri- tians laecame acquainted with Bowes ltutterllies, Redner's guns, and l..ielJerman's unique collection of unmentionalales -1 the top drawer lull. Capidaglis loclcecl horns with Willaer, and the primips laegan to precipitate. Ellison did a juggling act with each lnahy that would have turned a professional juggler green with envy. Farchione, Palumlno and Houston got an apartment, and Miss Parker set an tt p.m. curlew for nurses. Substitutions and clinics tool: up most our time, and taught us what to do when we became lalVlD's. Hauser stirred in his sleep as he became a father, and Sullivan sat in Emergency, sewing up lacerations and palpating ahdomens. And so we went to press on Decemlaer lirst, with many more of the class scheduled to talce on family tile, Wiggans matting his third try. ln the near future are the prospects ol: htteen months' interneships, and, incidentally, several new additions expected to various ot the class families. .- I A- 1 'ff ww , 1. tx l I ff ' iq iaith i 1 xi I Ng ,,, 'ttf mr , 1 3. ty.
