If'0lflfl fke vlawn 0 Aififor . The study of man has resolved itself into the infinite factors governing the smallest cell-yes-even the ultramicroscopic aknn. I d When men lose their lives for a belief and countries n ays are obliterated for a cause-a Year Book is inconsequential. But the earth is divided into countries and the countries into states. The city, compo ' sed of individuals, comprises the cell. It is here We learn the principles of patience and under- which links compose the chain of World events. standing- If this record has served, though imperceptibly, to foster a mutual tolerance and respect for individual beliefs and convic- n in this small but heterogenous group of Varied races tions, eve and religions-then it has accomplished a fundamental purpose. 1 .

The iron-grey hair, the white lab coat with cuffs folded back, the quick decisive step as he walked about the college or hospital, all became part of the pattern of medical school life. But through his tolerance and informality the usual student-professor pattern was changed for one of student-friend. As lecturer, demonstrator and field-trip conductor extraordinary, Dr. Fa- vorite has at all times maintained an attitude of willing, even enthusiastic availability. Be it to explain some complicated feature of the Rh factor or to help some student select a topic for a paper, he has always shown an eager and personalized interest. More than any member of the faculty he perceives and has made clear to us through his lectures on Public Health, the inevitable effect present day governmental trends must have upon medicine. Perhaps through experience gained while working in South America, or perhaps through some rare, basic appreciation of the true purpose of a physician, he believes in and has taught us the scientific not the artistic approach to medicine, the social and not the economic approach to man. A research investigator of national note, a scholar, humanitarian and friend, Dr. Favorite will remain a source of courage and inspiration to us all.
