{y ccz ?■ 2 9YC % F ttt i t A cover has been turned, a volume has been opened, and from die whimsi- cal days of our youth we have crossed the threshold into a lifetime of service for our fellowmen. Gone are the care-free college days, and ahead lie years of persevering and sacrifice. For centuries past mankind has recorded the steps of his age. From the walls of caves to the world ' s fair capsule , he has endeavored to recapture the essence of the original. In the pages that follow we have attempted to present the making of a physician in such a manner that whoever might chance upon our effort will better understand the story of medicine. Deforest W.

FOUR V E A R S of m e d i c i n e . . . we cflme . . . From 77 colleges and 13 states we arrived at the steps of Hahnemann. Whether journeys of hours or days, our destination was a common one. A life-long dream was unfolding in reality. On a torrid Monday evening we listened eagerly to the message from the administration. We were a chosen few . . . devoted to life ' s most difficult study . . . many would fall by the wayside . . . become a slave to your books . . . meet your obligations . . . glorious achievement is yours . . . position, place, and honor await. UJC SflUI . . . For three years we sat under the discipline of medicine itself. No other hand could have held more firmly. Far into the night we meditated over formulas; bewildered, we tried to comprehend the autonomic nervous system; and with the oil burning low, we assured ourselves that pathology had us doomed. Suddenly we awakened only to find ourselves out of the classroom and into the clinics where we met the sick, and treated them in our own inimitable ways. We witnessed surgical technique at its finest. We saw life brought into the world, and watched death tighten its grim fingers around some ill-fated soul. So ended our stay. UJC COnQUCRED Over the horizon they came, like a swarm of Anopheles mosquitoes, their yellow bellies and red eyes gleaming in the blistering Pacific sun. Larger and larger they loomed, until even their slit-eyed glia cells could be seen, then from their probosci thy unloosed the thunder that was Pearl Harbor. We were but college kids then. Little did we realize that we were to be hurtled at blinding speed through the vast accumulation of material that is medicine. Nor did we ponder the thought that our class was to be the first to start and finish under the accelerated program. That was yesterday. But today has come. The goal has been reached, and we have conquered. but first, we pause to dedicate To those on the benches engaged in the study of medicine, especially in these years of learning so much in the space of so little time, comes the wholesome appreciation of a man who helped us beyond measure in preparing for our life ' s work. To one who has gone more than half way. who has done a little more than just enough, and above all, who showed an unselfish and sincere interest in the students, goes our humble recognition and gratitude. To enumerate his qualifications as a teacher of surgery, by way of advanced degrees and study both here and abroad, wo uld be far from a complete summary of his effectiveness. Those who have come under his influence think of him as much more than a teacher. The hours in his clinic were memorable ones, a pleas- ant .escape from the ramparts of showmanship. His dignity, good humor, and real understanding were an inspiration to all of us. Thus, in admiration and deep respect, we dedicate the Medic of 1945 to Theodore C. Geary, M.D., F.A.C.S., F.I.C.S. 5 D I C t i o n 1 IS si BBH i 9 H ■ ft « - , mmr fl fl £ ■ 1 Jw JB1 UIILLIflm G. SCH miDT flCTIRG DEfin TO THE CLASS OF 1945: Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles . In this year of Victory you have come to a temporary resting place of satisfaction and achieve- ment. Like the intrepid adventurer who has long clambered and toiled ii|) the rugged ascent to reach a plateau of limitless vantage point you also have captured a vista of privileged opportunity and expanded ser- vice for the future. But, alter a refreshing pause of contemplation and thought for the activities of tomorrow, your individual journeys through professional life must soon take divergent paths. Vet along all routes stand the infallible sign posts ol wisdom, truth, and courage that will unerringly point the way to ultimate triumph and peace.

In retrospect high school was a joke, and even college was a snap, but as new recruits in the held ol medicine, life took on a more solemn line. Though fai from tested after just con- cluding our pre-medical work, we settled down to a more steady grind than evei before and began the study of the ills of mankind. 13 PHVSIOLOGV John C.

A real friend ol the student, he has often been mistaken foi a freshman. Dr. Beck, a set ions minded fellow, not too chummy and even somewhat seclusive, was well liked by the students l i his encouragement and high grades on experiments. Dr. Beck, along with the lest ol the members ol the department, con- tributes to medicine through research. Tlie department ol Physiology is without doubt the best organized in the college— which was recently attested to In a highet court of judg- ment than out own.

Alpha Beta, at Hahnemann. A small nucleus of eleven women students were initiated February 1945 at Women ' s Medical College of Philadelphia. Many activities included monthly, dinner meetings. Christmas party, rushing party, pledge dinner, and a farewell banquet in honor of our graduating Senior member, Elizabeth Brown. With the pledging of six new members. this past year has been an eventful one for Alpha Beta Chapter. Alpha Epsilon Iota was founded in 1890 at the University of Michigan. The total enroll- ment to date is 2.289. Its purpose is to promote good fellowship and maintain a high order of scholarship and professional achievement. The fraternity looks forward to establishing the spirit of comradeship and service in the medical pro- fession among themselves and those who are to come. 21 I II T £ R F R A T £ R fl I T V 1 R ETERNITIES Rl PR] SEN I ED Alpha Sigma Phi Lambda Kappa I ' hi l|)ha Gamma Pi I psilon Rho Phi Delta Epsilon I heta Chi Vlpha 22 In januar) 1944, a group of men representing the various fraternities at Hahnemann and feel- in the need for an organization to bind more closel) the fraternal spirit of the six active fia- ternities, founded the Interfraternit) Council. The motive behind the organization is to foster fellowship, bring about bettei understanding, and promote a harmonious relationship among all fraternities at the school. The Council is composed oi twelve men. two from each fraternity, one a member o) the Seniot and the othei a membei of the Junior class. The officers of the Council are a president and a sec retary-treasurer. Though the Council has been in existence but a short time, ii has successfully achieved most ol its aims. The organization lias weathered the storm concerning the election ol class officers b adopting the policy ol excluding all fraternity politics from the business ol the Inlci lialcrnitv Council. Willi ihis in mind, the Council con- ducted its second lushing season with complete success nuclei the newly adopted system. Prior to the next rushing season the Council shall have printed a pamphlet containing a briel histor) and statement ol the ideals, aims, and accomplishments ol each fraternity. An outline of the purpose ol the Interfraternit) Council and its constitution will also be recorded in the pam- phlet. We believe it will serve as an invaluable aid to the Freshman in selecting the fraternit) ol his c hoice. On December 9th, the Council sponsored the c ' collcl Interfraternit) Ball at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. It was considered a greatei success than the initial function and it is our hope that the subsequent Halls will continue to be the out- standing function of (he social calendar at Hah- nemann dining the first semester. 1 he departing Senioi representatives are the last ol the chartet members ol the Council. They have formulated the plans and successfully car- ried the organization through its first two years ol existence.

Alpha Sigma Fraternity was founded by a group of students of the New York Homeopathic Medical College in 1893. Subsequently, nine other chapters were formed at various other medical colleges throughout the country. Beta Chapter was founded tour cais latei In Hahne- mann students. Since that time, Alpha Sigma has been continuously active at Hahnemann and now boasts a large number of members among the faculty as well as hundreds among the gradu- ates. Student membership at present includes nearly one hunched brothers. Activities of the fraternit) include business meetings, monthly dinner meetings, several dances, and an annual smoker. Those ol the medical profession recognize probably more than any other group, the neces shy for intimate social relationship in the foster- ing ol man ' s hopes, ideals, and inspirations. Ihus. we of Alpha Sigma hold this relationship as basic in the importance of our fraternity and we believe that by its virtue we shall be aided much in our efforts to become physicians well worthy of our profession. 25 OFFICERS Ri i 1 h A.

Seriously, Dr. Snydei had given much thought to bringing togethei a group of students whose ( ion interests in die development ol medi- cine would Ml a book in die lal medical pro- gram ol today. For man) years Dr. Snyder spoke of such an undertaking to Dr. Russell Fisher.

At oin Insi meeting in the Histolog) office, we decided to bring an additional nienihei pet man. and elected Bill Stewart president, and Soudei secretary-treasurer. We made Di . Russell Fisher oui honorary facult) member, who pre- sented a forma] thesis at oui Inst dinner meeting. Each new member leads a papei at one of the meetings during the year. The membership ol the club is now made up ol twelve from each i lass. I lie club has invited various members oi Hah- nemann ' s facult) to tell ns ol then particular interest in the History ol Medicine. Dr. Snydei told us wh) he picked the name Aesculapius, it being the favorite ol learned physicians.

Ii is dedicated to the (ausr oi clean speech, and especiall) to reverence foi the Sac nil Name l mil Sa i i. Unlike most organizations ,ii Hahnemann, the activities I the Newman Club are largely confined to those oi a spiritual nature. This is because other college activities ampl) take care of the social needs l the sin dents, so thai this responsibility dues not devolve on the Newman Club. The monthly meetings oi litis hi oii|i are a constant remindet to its mem- bers oi iheii religious obligations.

During that week ii became known that the Freshman Class, with the new students added to the Sub-Freshmen, was one of the largest i lasses ever admitted. The difficulties arising from such a large numbei ol students were tem- porarily surmounted by forming groups among the members ol the (lass in accordance with a plan formulated l Dean Schmidt, who furthei made it known thai a definite numbei l lush men would have to be dismissed Irom the college at the end ol the In si semester in ordei to reduce the numbei to an optimum. Dining tense and trying momerfts Dr. Schmidl reiterated thai this elimination would be placed on the basis ol merit, shortly whereaftei he introduced his scheme Eoi arriving at a student ' s general avei age on a weight system. The mosl recenl addition to the lass were strangers not only to one another, bul also to the former Sub-Freshmen who had some oppoi tunit) to establish friendships dining the sum mel. Il was this stale ol affairs which divided the (lass when election ol officers came about. Many wanted to hold elections immediately, and others wanted to wait until they were bettei acquainted. For the Iattei group, Senator Boyd filibustered, fumed and [ought, but eventually lost his fight. Alto a hectic campaign and dramatic political set-ups , the class once again chose President Conrad as then leader, the Sub- Freshmen noi forgetting his excellent perform ance dining the summer. Having done with things political, the new medical students settled to their lask whic h the) found to l e an extremel) arduous one. so mm Ii in lac I. thai nianv chopped bv the wayside.

Behind us lay the barren fields, ahead the vaulting cliffs. The final examinations were over, and fortune had dealt with us lightly. Into our ranks had reached the sinister hand of fate, and drawn unto herself those chosen few for whom she had plans other than medicine. Vaca- tions were long since forgotten, and our rest was measured in days. Re-exams cared for our casualties, as we gathered our forces and re- organized to face the most dreaded year of the four.

Dr. Hunter S. Cook has borne with a smile the tremendous bur- den of extra duties cast upon him by the depai line of Dr. Grant Favorite. Though Dr. Favorite had niiuli to do with oui knowledge of Clinical Pathology, the (lasses which have followed have been ably taught by Dr. Cook. With the onset of the war Dr. Barthmaiei was the Inst to get into the swing ol things In donning his uniform. With his turned-up collar and brisk step, he was frequently mistaken lor one of the Barry- mores. Nearing the end ol oui work in Clinical I ' athologv Dr. Homell joined the department and has helped to lighten the teaching burden considerably. li was on i good Idi in lie to have completed out work in pathology undei Dr. Fisher just priot in Ins leaving to take up a special assignmenl with the Medical Corps ol the United States Navy. Having been on leave ol absence from the faculty foi over a year, din ins; which time he has been stationed in China and the lai East, he has recently been returned to the United States owing to ill-health. However, he is speed- ily convalescing. His absence from the college has been keenh fell l his colleagues and stn dents alike, li is out earnest hope that an early end to hostilities will permit those who come aftet ns at Hahnemann to share the privilege ol learning undei an inspiring teacher. II. at times, he seemed a little conscious ol his mental endow- ment (and justly so), Dr. Fishei proved himself no mete lip-setvci to the dictum, Noblesse Oblige . Few have gone to such painstaking efforts as he has in the presentation ol things medical. It can truthfully be said thai an au- dience lo one ol his buoyant lectures was often disappointed when the bell rang announcing the end of the hour. As a lecturer with un-er- ring flair lor the fitting word, he presented dif- ficult pathological material in suili a way as to stimulate thought and stir the imagination. And so it was that, under Dr. Fisher ' s teaching per- sonality, many of us experienced for the first lime a certain satisfaction in the acquisition of medical knowledge. Dr. Fishei was always friendly toward his students in the class-room DR. H. RUSSELL MMII-R and on the street, yet none the less exacting in his demands thai we should know our stuff. To have him for an oral was the next worst thing to having the phantom-of-fifteenth-street himself. A list of Dr. Fisher ' s achievements and honors is too long for recital here.

It look several lectures to icalh appreciate the wealth ol knowledge stored in our gentlemanly, professor ' s head. Not till oui senioi year did we realize that his lectures had not been in vain. Often we surprised even ourselves with the ac- tion ol a dins we ' la( l picked up somewhere in the dim past. Dr. Beutner is an eminent phar- macologist, and frequently consulted In large pharmaceutical houses concerning new drugs. Realizing the vastness of such a course, he pro vided the class with a masterful set of notes, the majority ol which have since been bound and will often be referred to in years to come. In the laboratory we watched the action ol drugs on animals, and received first hand infor- mation as to how they were supposed to work on the human body. In the periodic examina tions we always managed to add a lew new and non-official remedies to the Herr professor ' s ai mamentai turn. DR. JOHN A BORNEM UK U 1 I 1 R ( Oil I Kit II 5S I hough l)i. Beutnei is head oi the department we would have been .11 a decided disadvantage if we had not had instruction from several of his associates. Dr. Borneman taughl us the funda- mentals oi pharamacy, and gave us a working knowledge oi how to prepare many prescriptions. This tall, and ever-helpful professor soon taught us that pills have to be made, before they can be prescribed. We triturated and sucussed oui wa through pharmacy while Wall Street figures rose steadily on ready-prepared drugs. Although the same bottle of pills was graded many times, and main prescriptions were nothing more than col- ored water, we still retained much of the infor- mation given us. In Drs. Christiansen and Dietrich we found a real pair of aides, men who were not above a fre- quent chal with the student over his many prob- lems. We wrote prescriptions with a narcotic number until we were certain that opium should never have been discovered. Thus we finished our second year, having studied what kills and what cures, but as vet, not knowing why. DR. GKORC.E P.

Its origin is credited to three Freshmen whose original intention was the formation of a semi- nar group for the purpose of conducting extra discussions and dissections in Anatomy. At the conclusion o| three informal meetings, the so- cict was opened to all students and was named the Phillips Anatomical Sociel) in honoi of Dr. Phillips. The first dinner meeting was held at the end of the school ear at which time the so- ciety consisted of twelve members. The past few years have witnessed a rapid growth in member- ship until at the present time it consists ol a rep- resentative group from each class. The societ) meets weekl) at which time some special topic in Anatoni) is presented l one of the members. Monthl) dinner meetings are also held, being attended by guest speakers in the various fields of Surger) and Anatomy. Society members have had the opportunity to hear man) authorities and outstanding lecturers in the sur- gical and anatomical fields. The requirements for membership in the so- ciet) are the attendance ot si meetings in an) one semester, an active interest in Anatomy, or the presentation of some topic in Anatoim at one regular meetings. Upon completion of the senioi yeai each member is given a certificate of membership. Guest lecturers automatically be- come honorary members of the societ . 62 m c d i c r l science societv OFFICERS President Elizabeth B. Brown Vit e-President David M.

Its aims are to increase the scope of scien- tilu knowledge in medicine, to furthei associa- tion with outstanding men of the medical pro- fession, .mil to engendei sociability among out fellows. We have one dinner meeting each month with an after-dinner speaker. It has been our good fortune to have men such as the following speak to us during the course ol tin- year: Dr. Stanley Reimann, Dr. T. C. Geary, Dr. William Lee. Judge Kline of the Orphan ' s Court, Dr. Faris of Wistar Institute. Dr. Shay, Dr. Weiss, Dr. Bailey, Dr. Barnes, Dr. Brieger, Dr. Eber- hard. Dr. Hepburn and others.

Believing thai [esus, the Great Physician died that man might live, members of the Christian Medical Associa- tion have prepared themselves noi only t treat the physical ills of mankind, but have attempted to develop understanding hearts with which to overcome the sorrow and despah ol an ailing humanity. Although every physician must con- stantly keep abreast of medical progress, only those who recognize the best seller of all books. the Bible, to be a genuine textbook ol medicine, have the complete satisfaction that they have used to the best oi their ability every available resource Eoi the betterment ol theii patient ' s c ondition. The organization is made up of medical stu- dents, nurses, and faculty members. There are no officers, and the meetings are open to all who wish to attend. Five such groups in the various medic a 1 schools make up the Philadelphia Christian Medical As- sociation which meets m onthly at the University ol Pennsylvania ai which time an address is given by some outstanding Christian physician oi scientist. 65 SERUICE L.

To this end we are all working, but some undoubtedly will fall by the wayside. We hope to be different and have no fatalities at the end of this year. Out record to dale is about ten per cent. With slight aid from Dean Schmidt, our at- tendance record has improved remarkably ovei hist year. Could it be we are more eager for education! Most of those who found fault with the new attendance system were those who never came to lectures anyhow. Walked into lecture one day to find everyone gathered closely around the professor, and truly you could have heard a pin drop. Thought we really had lads eaget to learn— tinned out to be one of those last minute nugget sections! Inci- dentally, Dr. Buetner ' s Nugget Lectures were voted the most popular program for the Sopho- more year— something not to be missed! The Freshman year would best be called the battle ol Physiology and Chemistry, the Sopho- more yeai is a battle against time with General Sappington fighting the battle— trying to beat enough Pathology into out heads before time to c all us Juniors. We found during this year thai Dr. Phillips remembered even more than he taught us last year, and all indulged in a bit l wishful think- ing thai someday we might have at c ill I com mand tin- knowledge of the human bod) that he does.

We really had a swell time, and at the same time saw the really sani- tary conditions under which pharmaceuticals are prepared. Incidentally the refreshments were lo|is! Dr. Beutner took extra special pains to teach us that Luminal and Phenobarbital were iden- tical, and that there really was some lluiapeulii value to alcohol. Dr. Dieliick attempted to keep us from being made the laughing stock ol the Hospital when we write out lusi prescription! Dr. Cook worked hard with us in Bacteriology, and even aided in Pathology bv allowing us to go home a little early on the dav before an ex- amination. Dr. Homed spent many horns in trying to c leai the muddy watei out ol out minds in both Pathology and Bacteriology. Dr. Barth- meier could be counted on Eot questions unusual! Leonard could be counted on foi slides and speci- mens! Dr. Rambo always had a kind word and a helplul hand. 68 Wall kistlti worked hard as President of the Class and the first dance the Class of December 1946 sponsored was a great success. Dave Kru- sen, Treasurer; Charles Shapiro, Secretary and Art Kaupe, Vice-President, all did their names justice in their offices. John Holland, Studenl Institute, fought mu cause hard in the Insti- tute. We really worked togethei as a unit as Sophomores. We all got to know each othei a little more intimately in Physical Diagnosis— in fact— we could almost recognize cadi othei in the dark! We became a little more acquainted with oui own insides with oui specimens foi Bacteriology. We also found out t hat though cramming was not the best method of learning, it certainh helped out a little. Each made plans tot a small room attached to the office where he could utile and hastily brush up on the notes between patients! Many ol the class have launched themselves on the sea ol matrimony, while others stand on the brink waiting for someone to push them. Others have gone a little deepei into the business and pased out ( igai v With the help of the Army and Navy, many of us continue out educations without having to worry about where oui next tuition is com- ing from, and hoping someday to Ik- worth the investment the Government is making.

For a whole semester we had lived in a deluge of rumors. The Army would take over the institution any day . . . We would all be thrown into a common melting pot from which we might be sent to whatever medical center the government preferred . . . Those who remained would be housed in the Broadwood with its beautiful pool . . . These were fancies soon to become facts, at least in part. But so engrossed were we in the false magic of the Great White Father that only the historic drill fields of Meade and Cumberland could awaken us to the truth. Thus it was we entered our junior year; nephews of Uncle Sam, pledged to the art of healing in a world gone slaughteringly mad.

The introductor) lectures ol oui junior year were delivered l Dr. Hessert, and upon com- pletion ol His short discourse we decided that pelvic anatom) was as simple as building a bridge. We were addressed the balance of the year by Dr. Craig, except for a few short inter- ludes at which time Dr. Roman look over ver ably. However, the hulk ol the course was pre- sented by Dr. Craig who was as sincere a teacher as we ' ll ever sec-. It was evidenl to all thai he liked to teach, and he loved the subjeel which he taught. He was respected l student and fae- ult members alike foi his profound knowl- edge ol a specially as important as Gynecology, and lot the proficient manner in which he was able to impart ii to the student. Dr. Craig was the first ol the piolessors to pass on since oui arrival at Hahnemann, and will long be remem- bered by the main who studied undei him. The Gynecolog) Dispensary was out fiisi in- troduction to real cases which we handled in the best manner we knew how.

Perhaps someday, some- where, someone will discover a lew ol the ' more obvious Haws in the teaching methods at Hahne- mann, and ol special import, the mass clinics in which little il anything is gained.

We will never forget our first meeting with Dr. Steinhilber. He is a gentleman and leather par excellence. His ever) word and action bespeaks the fact that he is thinking of the student fust. The lectures were delivered as all lectures should be. with nevei a stii in the classroom. The material was presented in a ready-digested form. All we had to do was absorb it. The junior exams nearly killed three of out classmates. Ihe held their breath for an hour for feat the) would be tin own out. Two others forgot to swallow, and we all perspired. Then there was also a course in Psychobiolog) presented b Dr. Robertson. Main of us never knew where the class was held, and others who lead this will be hearing of it for the first time. To Psychology majors it proved very enlighten- ing. The surprising part ol it was that before the course was over we had shared the entire seoets ol out lives with him. Then came the senioi year. At last we were to share the fru its ol a trip to llentown. We had been preparing foi this momentous week e ei since the beginning of out junior vear. and now it had arrived. We secured a room and made otii wa toward the Hospital, (not having heard il the Circlon as yet). Dr. Hoffman and his staff •link us through the gamut of nervous and men- tal diseases, and b) the end ol a week few ol :is knew whether to sta) 01 return to school. More than once a patient convinced us that someone had committed him to get the benefit I his fortune, 01 because the) didn ' t like him. iul all the while we were in sympath) with the pa- tient who was no more sick men tall) than we were. Oh. yes. Coming back from Vllentown we began out work in the Neurolog) dispensar) with the feel insz that we were at least seniors and knew a little o about the subject. Out confidence didn ' t last lung for Dis. Nell. Met gei. Sc u i . Fox, and Frig- nito siidclenh unleashed their attack. 84 Again on Friday afternoons we met Dr. Stein- hilber who presented excellent clinics with food Eoi thought which was often more than we could swallow. The case was invariably built up to a climax, and when suddenly the diagnosis was exposed, ii seemed so simple that we all wondered win we hadn ' t thought of it before. On many occasions he discussed private cases with ns, and at other times provided us with nuggets concerning the legal aspects of neurol ogy, and the many pitfalls. Above all else, out respect lot Dr. Steinhilber is based upon his sincerely independent and en- enthusiastic teaching, unhampered by the bonds of superiority so readily seen in many of the de- partments at Hahnemann.

Never once did he raise his voice above the calm and cool monotone with which he spoke, vet the silence as so marked we could almost heat rales horn where we sat. On many iccasions we were tempted to sa we had heard the murmur which he had no carefully pointed nit to n v yet we somehow fell that whether our answei was yes 01 no he already knew how much we had heard. His sincere modest) and desire to impart all that he could to the student placed him high on oui list of favorites. The department was well organized, and provided the foundation foi most of the physicals we were to do later. Departmeni siut 1 Goldsmith; II. Lane: I | Vischer; (.. F. McDonough; VV.

This was made possible bv efforts oi well chosen eye men under the direction of Dr. Frank C). Nagle. Dr. Nagle, who has been associated with Hahnemann for ovei fort} eaiv has in the past contributed generousl) ol his time and interest to the institution. In addition to work in his specialt) as coordinator of this department, Dr. Nagle has served on the Medical Council and on the Admissions Committee in times gone by. In moie recent years he has made a ailable opportunities foi younger men interested in the specialty. Respected and admired by all who know him.

Under Dr. Fries we were taught how necessary it is to individualize eve cases and to realize the importance of so-called details. Dr. Cossa, one ol the most populat younger men on the staff, taught us the art of Ophthalmoscopy so well that there was a call for extra lectures, and foi man) weeks Dr. Cossa got up at an early hour loi 8:00 a.m. sessions. Here we learned the importance of the ocular fundus as an aid to diagnosis ol man) common diseases. Drs. Miller and Sutherland helped us over some of the difficult practical work in the after- noon clinics, and although oui acquaintance with them was short, we were loi lunate in hav- ing the privilege to take some of oui work un- der their capable guidance. 89 Iii iht ' uninitiated Otolaryngol og) means the stud) ill the diseases l the ear, nose and throat.

McCutcheon, Haines, and Russell Geary. Dr. Haines demonstrated high potencies in ac- tion, and in forthright mannei emphasized the importance of considering diseases of the ear, nose and throat on a constitutional as well as a local basis. We observed how patients were Heated as human beings and not just a case . Dr. Russell Geary was a favorite with all ol us. Accurate observation and careful workmanship were emphasized by his example. We saw the results, lot lip-service is not the maxim 1 a Geary. Dr. McCutcheon ' s patience and understanding in teaching us how to use nose and throat in- struments weie deeply appreciated. Practical, useful points were made ours. Joseph Y. F.

HOLLIS It is with special pride that we express our sincere appreciation to a man whom we all ad- mire, Dr. Charles IS. Hollis. He has remained ever faithful to the students at Hahnemann. Through his efforts, indifferent to personal sacri- fice, opportunities not otherwise available were open to all who would take advantage of them. As sponsor of the Hollis Otolaryngologic al So- ciety, he has brought before us prominent men from among his host of friends and associates in tins field. To have been deprived of instruction under a top man and an inspiring teacher, especially in these days ol war when good men are at a premium on the home front, is nothing short of criminal! It goes without saying that we shall not forget the generosity, courage and wise counsel of our friend, Dr. Hollis. DR. JOSEPH R. CRISWELL 91 R3l )£JX % r ft PEDIATRICS Although most of us have nevei seen the Chiel ol Pediatrics, Dr. C. S. Raue, also authoi of a leading textbook on diseases ol hildien, we were not lacking excellent instruction l experts in this Held. Normal pediatrics was ably taughl l genial, good-natured I)t. Redman. In addition to n tal weights and measurements, infant feed- ing schedules and proper formulae, we learned the importance ol the more common diseases l childhood. Precision and accuracy were the watchwords ol Dr. Redman. The three weeks ' in the Pediatric Dispensary were much too short, but undei the capable di- rection of Drs. Fletcher, Reading and Lumish, we put to actual practice some of the things we had learned. Having made the acquaintance ol Dr. Jack Noon in the freshman year, we met him again in out junioi Pediatrics ward work. No one else has quite the knack of doing spinal taps, jugular venipunctures, and other annoying hut necessary procedures. In out senior year we saw him only occasionally, hut one Friday afternoon he dropped in to give us Syphilis . Dr. Noon is really one of the boys and is highly regarded by all who know him. He transformed our re- luctant trips to Municipal on Saturday after- noons into a really enjoyable experience— never without his sprightly humor and sound prac- tical comments. DR. | I R] DM We wish to extend oui plaudits to Dr. Carl Fischer for his very real contributions toward the foundations in out chosen ptolession. To him we are indebted for an exceptional!) well inte- grated and interestingly presented course in Pediatrics. Not only as a specialist in that de- partment ol medicine but also as a student in the broader field of human understanding, Dr. Fischer has given freely ol his time and has made it of prime concern to him thai we should go forth into the profession well qualified and pre- pared to do a good job. His up-to-the-minute knowledge of many phases of medicine have made him much in de- mand as a speaker at student gatherings and society meetings, and in this way lie lias con- tributed materially toward the establishment ol closei student-faculty relations. As capable administrator ol alumni affairs ai Hahnemann foi the past deiade. his long ret old of faithful service to the institution would be difficult to estimate in terms of time and per- sonal sacrifice. Largely through his etloits in- terest has been stimulated in establishing a strong alumni group with unity of purpose— the culmination ol which is the bed-rock for sin vival of Hahnemann traditions. Sincere in his enthusiasm for advancing the prestige of Hahne- mann men everywhere and foi the realization of a Greater Hahnemann. Dr. Fischer has won the admiration of us all. Charles S. Raue, A.M..

How ever, we have received an excellent foundation in this field (il medicine under the new head ol the Department, Dr. Edward Campbell, and his staff. Dr. Campbell, a realh top man in his spe- cialty, went to all ends to explain the various diagnostic and surgical procedures used in study- ing a case of renal calculus, Ca of the bladder, and a host of other conditions. His forthright manner in presenting his course and his kindh attitude toward his students places him in Nan- guard of good men at Hahnemann.

Boericke Society of Thera- peutics was organized in 1936, foi the purpose ul stimulating furthei interest in the treatment ul conditions the physician meets in everyday life. As new methods and drugs are constantly coming into being, the society tries to keep abreast ol the times as well as study those meth- ods that are already accepted and proved. To become a membet ol the society, a candi- date must exemplify his interest in Therapeutics l submitting a papet to the society on some particulai phase of Therapeutics. Membership is open to those in the funiot 01 Senioi (lasses meeting the qualifications. Dr. Boericke well exemplifies the ideas set forth by the society in his never exhaustible knowledge ol I herapeutics and his ever present desire to impart that knowledge to the members. Every meeting will be long remembered foi his cheerful countenance, his witty remarks, his in- evitable cigar, and his more than instinctive ability to talk endlessly on any therapeutic problem. Our meetings during the past year have con- sisted of presentations of original papers and re- views of therapeutic problems with which va- rious members have been interested. After the paper was presented, group discussion would fol- low with Dr. Boeiiike adding from his great storehouse of nuggets . We are honored on the last meeting night of the year, for this night Dr. Boericke claims for his own. ft is the greatest and most enjoyable night of all, for conventions are forgotten and keys and certificates are presented climaxing a year of pleasant associations and instinctive ac- tivities. 101 no a r « iflne ihedical society Nature has given In men one tongue, but two ears, thai we mux heat from others twice as much us zee speak — PICTETUS OFFICERS President Ch vrles Wai ki k Secretary Treasure) George VV.

That this pur- pose has been attained may be evidenced by the spirit of unity in the diligent quest for cancer knowledge by the members of the society. We have as our leader in this search a man most able to cope with the cancer problem, Dr. Stan- ley P. Reimann. No praise is great enough for him. We are sincerely proud to call him our friend and counsellor. Dr. Reimann has brought within our grasp the modus operandi of malig- nant change so far as is known today. He has obtained some of the foremost men to speak to us. No phase of the problem has been left un- touched. From the surgical and biochemical reactions clown to the fascinating thoughts of isotopic tracer compounds have been expounded to us. We can safely say that we are equipped with a knowledge of cancer such as is offered in no other medical college in the United States. Ours was indeed a fortunate lot to be so closely associated to Dr. Reimann. 105 REomnn pediatrics society OFFICERS President Wilbur F. Jehi I a e-President Leonard |.

Anayed in varying shades ol sun and bar-room tans, we returned last Octobei expecting to ac- complish a few ininoi miracles of medicine. Be- hind us were those dreary days ol endless lectures and those long sleepless nights oi memorization. Little did we know! Instead, seven hours of lec- tures every day gave us all severe eases of writ- er ' s cramp and secretary ' s spread. To add insult to injury we had two tight o ' clocks a week dur- ing second semester. Who in hell ever said this was an easy yeai ? Our terrifying dreams of the Great White Father were more than replaced by horrible nightmares of proddings by a black bull sprout- ing Simpson forceps. In Obs lab we were lead through the bewildering maze of the birth canal with one hand behind us and only two lingers as a guide. Trusting rear ends were bared in Syph.

In the past few months we had progressed rapidly with the Army, Navy and civilian components func- tioning smoothly. Here and there were minor details to be checked, and mopping up operations to be done. That the battle had been won was without question. The casualty list became shorter, and after every skirmish the wounded were quickly cared for. Then suddenly, with port in sight, they came. Out of the gray dawn, their engines droning and their cannon bursting with flame . . . Silently we stood while they were buried at sea. As the sun set in the west, three flags drifted lazily to our stern. Dusk settled over the ship, and in the shadows we could make out a blue one between two khakis.

It musi be admitted, how- ever, that, although we hold him in high esteem as a physician (and that is the principal thing) when important decisions were to be made con- cerning out welfare, he was inclined to sii on the fence and has been known to jump out the window.

For some reason ii held a place in oui minds above all othei specialties. So ii was that we were introduced to minoi surger) In ' Bristol in oui Sophomore year. Soon aftei we were shown how to splinl them where the) lie b) Dr. Shollen- berger, who also gave us a complete course in propei band- aging technique. In the junioi yeai we firsl mei Dr. ltd Geary, whose lectures on the diagnosis ol the acute abdo- men were masterfull) presented. I lux will serve us foi years to come in those critical moments when decision musi be made without faltering. Oui debi to him is onl) partiall) acknowledged b the faci thai he was unanimousl) voted b) the (lass to receive the Dedication ol the 1945 Medic. ' the week sections Dr. 1 ee told us what to do ' ' Ilu patieni before and aftei operation. Mis booming voice often wakened someone curled up in the cornei ol the lmii fourth ll 1 classroom. I),. Carpentei constantl) presented hypothetical cases from which arose no end ol ar gument. His four-question true ana false quiz will al- ways be remembered as one ol the toughesl exams we evei SURGERY had. At least according to the grades. In the dispensary we had our fnsi opportunit) to put on a pair of gloves, and assist Dr. Hoffman in the so-called office procedures (without anesthesia). Throughout the senioi yeai we had the opportunit) to listen to Dr. William Martin. Head oi the Department oi Surgery, whose surgical lectures were certainly as fine as those given in an other teaching institution in the coun- try. In this clinic we feel , was a frequent prefix to an afternoon ol posterior no-loop gastrojejunostomys. We deeply respect Dr. Martin for his outstanding ability as a surgeon and leather. Complicated surgical procedures were elucidated in a simple niannei so that they were readily understood by all. During the ten-week surgery section ol the senioi year, we again met many of the men whose acquaintance we had made for shorter periods in the earlier seats. Among these was Dr. William Sylvis. He has the all loo rare ability to think anatomically, anil in this gift he has no peers at Hahnemann. He will be remembered not only as an able surgeon but also as a dynamic personality who put much of himself into his work. It was our great privilege to observe the fine points ol plastii surgery in tin clinics ol Dr. Thomas 1.. Doyle, one ol the outstanding plastic sur- geons of the country. Last but by no means least we pay tribute to Dr. Charles Bailey, one of Hahnemann ' s notables. Through his out- standing ability as a thoracic surgeon and by wax ol his prolific writings in the outstanding medical journals of the clay, he has clone much toward placing the name ol Hahne- mann where it rightfully belongs. As an adventurer into unblazed trails in the surgery of the heart and lungs he has attracted wide recognition lot his skill and achieve- ment. However, when it tomes to ligating the thoracic aorta for twenty-live minutes and getting away with it. we must admit that Fortune favors the brave. Occasionally he was even trusted with one of Dr. Lane ' s heart cases lot whom medicine could do no good. Because of the current interest in this field and its increasing importance, we think it fitting to append here a partial list of his writings: Bailey. C.

()m introduction to the departmeni ol Ob stetrics came during oui junioi year. Dr. Crowthers impressed us with the importance oi knowing the measurements ol the normal female pelvis, and warned us that In the end oi the yeai we would know them as well as oui name, whethei we wanted to i not. With the aid ol .1 rubbei life-size 1 1I and an iron manikin the mysteries ol childbirth and the normal mechan- ism ol delivery were made to appeal very simple. ()l course, whal seemed easy to watch became anothei stor) when we went to the Obstetrics lab and attempted to pull out an IS Ml- I. oi appl) the forceps. Dr. Lafferty werTl to great pains to make it cleai thai we si i n 1 1 1 all be in the room with the door closed before the bell rang. Failure to obe) his rules mighi mean anything from being thrown oui ol the room, to being lust assistant at his lecture. He was probabl) the most hated man in town foi several days aftei politely re fusing all slideless seniors the privilege ol tak- ing his exam. His sudden inspirations such as. Let ' s call it a day , were nevei quite under- stood, but somehow in spite ol these inate pe- culiarities we held linn in deep admiration foi one ol the most noble ol Hails, his fearless abil- ity to stand on his own two feel and let no one ki k him around. At the middle ol the junioi eai Dr. Paxson began his sei ies oi lei tines thai was to lake us through the entire field ol Obstetrical problems. His pleasing voice and fatherly maiiuei made the course so interesting thai we found ourselves spending as much lime studying Obstetrics as all oihei coiuses combined. However, warnings from out predecessors may have had some beat- ings on oui elloi Is. Oui Inst experience with the reality of a de- livery came in the week spent at West |eise Hospital. There we soon learned that human gestation lasted nine months to the hour, and frequently provided a good reason to crawl oui of bed in the wee hours only to find them i tit ting the cord. By die time we reached pie natal clinic we began to leel that we could make some practical application ol what we had been taught. At least we could diagnose pregnancy by the sixth month. Again we spent a week on maternity sen ice at Hahnemann. With sirens blaring we rolled up Broad Street in the red wagons usually to find baby and placenta wrap- ped neatly in newspaper King on the floor by (he- stove. Such were the experiences ol mosl oi us. And so, as we leave to practice hither and yon, we wish to acknowledge one ol the most complete, most well-taught, and most gainful courses of out careers.

Bishou - THERAPEUTICS Men must be taught as ii you taught them not And things unknown proposed as things forgot. —Pope Our Eriend since the earliest da s ai Hahnemann, Dr. Boericke has gone with us all I the way. Whethei in the classroom oi on thpse memorable ward walks, his was the ;ni ui teaching medicine the wa men like to be taught, and his sincere interest in his students is perhaps the key- note to his sinless as an interpretei ol medical knowledge. Surveyoi ol therapeutic highways from Ferrum 1 ' hos. to Penicillin, Dr. Boericke had the enviable ability to boil things down to their simplest terms and to correlate in our minds the practical with the theoretical. Who could for- get those famous nuggets ? When as seniors we became more interested in the practical and ethical aspects ol medicine, his advice was this: It is natural that you now begin to think ol the ethical side ol medicine; you can always go into the patient ' s bathroom and look up some bs( me piece ol forgotten knowledge. Dr. Boericke was nevei without his keen sense ol humor— even on those Blue Monda) mornings ol out junioi year. 12-. Somehow uc feel that the thi ngs he has given us will not be forgotten. Ii was not his way to chide us about our mistakes, but rather to collect them In repetition and em- phasis. Magically productive in the boundless humanity ol the bom physician, he tried to cultivate in us the fac- ulties ol medical judgment and reasoning. And so it is our feeling, although Dr. Boericke would be the last to concur in this, that in time to come few men will be t hough t to have had so positive an influence on our careers as physicians as oui Professoi of Therapeutics and Materia Medic a. Garth W. Boericke. To Dr. Klain we are indebted loi a well presented course in Physiotherapy, a branch oi medicine that is growing mole useful everyday. Knowledge ol this important field will be valuable in treating certain types ol wai injuries, and with ii will be remembered Dr. Klain ' s patience and understanding in acquainting us with the principles of long and shorl wave diathermy, the alpine lamp, whirlpool baths, and tlit- electrocoagulation of a tenderloin steak. It hasn ' t been so long since I was silting on the benches, and I know just how uh feel; a. a. . .a. gelling back to the New Yoi k Group ' s work. a... a... by the way, in that last prescription I gave you, change the vehicle to syrup ol orange, they really go foi it in a big way, all rightee. II at limes it seemed haul loi us to keep up with Dr. Seidcl ' s intellectual eentei ol gravity we were kept awake by his genial enthusiasm and weie impressed bv his fair-minded- ness and whole hcai led efforts to make available to us certain by-paths from his vasi held ol experience in pharma- eologv as applied to therapeutics. Never will we forget lo have the patient come back while there is yet a fluid drahtii 01 two left in the bottle. We weie extremely fortunate in having oui course with Dr. Mattern prior to his leaving to join the aimed loices as a Captain in the United States Army. Acknowledged as one of the ten best homeopathic prescribers in the slate ol Pennsylvania, Dr. Mattern had a different facial ex- pression loi each symptom; extra long pauses over certain syllables served lo impress upon us the modalities of each drug.

Somehow we feel that tin- two must ol necessity go togethei foi the held ol malignancy provides much food foi thought when the mattei ol prognosis is brought up. Although his specialty showed a mortality rate higher than an other, Dr. Reimann met the challenge, and instilled into oui minds the great necessity of earl) diagnosis in any form ol cancer. We can truly sa that we are cancel conscious , which is probably the most golden nugget to be gained in the therap) ol abnormal growth. In the weekly tumoi clinics we had the oppor- tunity ol seeing various members l the hospital stall examine, discuss, and diagnose patients who presented evidence ol malignancy. Dr. Lehman often astounded the audience with a harmless looking shadow just two centimeters in diametei with a density so like that of the rest ol the film thai only he could point out iis boundaries.

The wheels were before the jury. Ruins Choote, as counsel for the defendant, expended his legal acumen in a learned and labored mathematical essa , intend- ing to prove that there was an essential differ- ence between the wheels in evidence and there- fore no infringement on the patent right. Then Webster spoke foi the plaintiff. Gentlemen ol the jury, said he. You have just heard an elaborate scientifit disquisition upon these wheels. I have nothing ol this kind to offer. There ate the wheels, look at them. The jui looked at them and gave him the verdict. We too have no elaborate essay i give. I ' you ask what econium we bestow on out own William B. Van Lennep, we would reply, Be- hold the man. Behold his woik. his results, his reputation. His achievements speak loudei than oui woids (ould possibly speak. I he Van Lennep Surgical Society originated with an eclectic group ol seniors ol the Class of 1934. These men duh honored the insuperable surgeon, teacher, and executive, William B. Van lennep. h taking his name lot theii society. The society was composed oi fourth yeai men whose incipient surgical interests predicated its foundation. Every yeai since then, twenty men with similat interests have been chosen to frater- nize at regulai monthly meetings with leading contemporary surgeons to garnei a not infre- quent surgical nugget. Active participation by these members in meetings, othel than those with professional guests in attendance, takes the form ol presentation oi theses based on surgical themes. 139 PRXS0I1 OBSTE OFFICERS President Fr k ().

Paxson, the society has been very fortunate in having as guest speakers outstand- ing men in the field of Obstetrics, nol only from our own school, but from others as well. One of the activities of the society is to visit the Obstet- rical Department of other hospitals. In the past year the society has visited the Margaret Hague Maternity Hospital, the Philadelphia Lying-in Hospital, the Jefferson Hospital, and the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania Hospital. The year began with a visit to a Maternal Mortality Committee meeting. Dr. Warren C. Mercer spoke at the second meeting and gave us a fascinating discourse based upon the vast experiences encountered during his many years of practice. One of our last meetings was held at the Union League at which time we were guests of Dr. and Mrs. Paxson. 141 m E D I C mflKERS OF 1 945 Working undei the mosl dire circumstances ever imposed upon a staff, by virtue ol the strin- gent attendance rules and rigid milium regula- tions, we have produced the first totally extra- curriculai Medit ever published at Hahnemann. Endless hours been devoted to making a yea] hook which is a genuine picture ol our days, in medit al school as well as a true expression ol our feelings as we join the tanks ol alumni. Unlike the gilt-edged, glorified catalog-insti- tution so enticingly developed by clevei writings, we have dipped out pens in the bitter wells ol realit and in subtle simplicity arrived at a genu 1 1 1 ( ■ nicnioii ol conditions at Hahnemann as onl) the student can sec them. Much careful research was required to provide as factual and authentic an a mini as possible. We make no pretentious boasts as to the qualit) ol out book. No laurels an- desired.

Bell Phone: SPRuce 7078 B. S. BROWN Whatever happened lo Doe ' s be lside maimer? I hey had called Jim Doc from his short-pants days, because all his friends and family knew that he planned to follow In the footsteps of his grandfather and favorite uncle — and become a doctor. But Jim is not a doctor. His medical education has never started, his Bedside Manner has never been tried out. Like so many dreams and ambitions of gentler days, they have been shoved aside by the harsh demands of war. There are thousands of young men whose medical careers have been pushed years into the future. Every year since the war began, fewer and fewer new doctors have been produced. At the beginning of this year, military requirements cut in half the number of students permitted admission in medical or pre-medical courses. This is one reason why there not only Is a serious doctor shortage now, but why that shortage will last long beyond the firing of the last shot. There are other reasons. Bringing troops back from all over the world will be a long, difficult task — and their doctors will be among the last to be released. Many doctors will stay abroad to prevent epidemics that might eventually come to us. Doctors who do get back will have much of their time occupied in caring for casualties of the world ' s greatest war. The very best way to save your doctor ' s time is to make use of his services the minute trouble arises. Never indulge in self-diagnosis. See your doctor early, in time for him to head off more serious trouble. And you can help him further by doing these three things: Go to him — whenever you are able. House visits take time when some- one else may need him urgently. Keep your appointment promptly; make it at his convenience so that he can plan his crowded hours better. Follow his advice to the letter — so that your trouble doesn ' t drag on get complicated, or need extra attention. One of a series of messages published as a public service by Wyeth Incorporated, Phila- delphia . . . relied upon by your physician and druggist for pharmaceuticals, nutri- tional products, and biologicals — including penicillin and blood plasma.

CROUP O SERUM REICHEL DIVISION WYETH INCORPORATED PHILADELPHIA 3 • PENNSYLVANIA 1 UllU MEAD JOHNSON COMPANY ' COOPERATES WITH THE COUNCIL Voluntarily, we market only Council-Accepted products because we have faith in the prin- ciples for which the Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry (and the Council on Foods and Nutrition of the American Medical Association) stand. We have witnessed the three decades during which the Council on Pharmacy and Chem- istry has brought order out of chaos in the pharmaceutical field. For over thirty years it has stood — alone and unafraid — between the medical profession and unprincipled makers of pro- prietary preparations. The Councils verify the composition and analysis of products, and substantiate the claims of manufacturers. By standardizing nomenclature and disapproving therapeutically suggestive trade names, they discourage shotgun therapy and self-medication. They are the only bodies representing the medical profession that check inaccurate and unwarranted claims on circulars and advertising as well as on packages and labels. The Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry, through N. N. R. and in other ways, augments the work of the U. S. Pharmacopeia, testing and evaluating scores of new products which appear during the 10-year interim between Pharmacopoeial revisions. We are conscious of the fact that these A. M. A. Councils have at all times been criticized both in and out of the medical profession. We hold no brief for perfection in any human agency. But we subscribe to the fact that the work of the Councils is sound in principle; and in this high-pressure day and age, we shudder to think of a return to the unrestrained patent-medicine- quack-nostrum conditions of three decades ago, when there ■was chaos instead of Council.
