The Association was founded in 1915, and the G. W. U. School of Medicine Junior Chapter was founded in 1953 by Dr. Elizabeth Kahler, past national president. Monthly meetings at which honored speakers are invited and an annual spring dinner in conjunction with the senior chapter are the yearly activities. lg WOMEN IN WHITE, members of the Junior Chapter ofthe Am.

It has performed the real and vital function of preserving the mental health of the members involved through the sharing of common problems, such as enduring the husbandless periods of devotion to duty or study and the problems of child rearing. In addition ir1 our lighter moments, they have served as a pool of ready labor at Follies' time, working on costumes, scenery, etc., and, ofcourse, applauding the results. They have enjoyed their four years together with their husbands and hope thatthe classes following will also enjoy the distaff side of medical school. SENIORS' WIVES: Hrs! razu,' M. Svoboda, M.
