T AKING literally the statement that most students come to the School with no back¬ ground in statistical technics and their applica¬ tion, Dr. Hugo Muench and his colleagues soon attempted to rectify this lamentable state of affairs. With seemingly infinite patience and note¬ worthy enthusiasm, Drs. Reed and Worcester, Miss Drolette and the laboratory assistants used almost heroic measures to inculcate in us a knowledge of basic concepts and principles. De¬ spite the fact that the fruits of their labors will not mature overnight, it will be a rare individual who has not gained a healthy respect for the kinds of questions to ask about data and who has not learned new ways of looking at the universe. As a constant measure of our regard for statistical concepts in general and, in particular, for the people who labored to get them across, the Class presented a king-sized pair of cloth dice (un¬ loaded) to the staff. The dice now hang, a la mobile, in a prominent position in the library of the Department. Many of the activities of the Department are conducted out of sight of most of us. Staff mem¬ bers offer aid and consultation to researchers in other departments of the School and University, DR. MUENCH as well as to many community agencies and in¬ stitutions. An advanced training program for the junior members of the staff is conducted by the Department under a grant from the National Heart Institute. Most of its out-of-the-classroom activity does not involve the Department in the conduct of major research programs of its own. The Department is currently cooperating in a study at St. Paul’s Rehabilitation Center for the Blind in Newton, Mass. PUNCH AND GRIND 13
