Page six DEDICATION Page seven HE M I S T U SCHOOL The Indianapolis College of Pharmacy has been in existence since 1904. Since its organ- ization, 1150 students have been graduated. It is a member of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, an organization which establishes the high standards maintained by its members. The curriculum of I. C. P. is one of high scientific standards and practical value. The degree. Bachelor of Science, is conferred upon each student upon completion of the four year course. The many advantages offered tc a student of I. C. P. have established our Alma Mater as one of the leading Colleges of Phar- macy in the United States. As an institution of professional learning, I. C. P. has gone far in the advancement of the pharmaceutical arts and sciences. Page eight HE M I S T U TO THE READER As editor of the 1940 Mistura, I wish to take this means of expressing my appreciation to faculty and students for the fine cooperation which has met the efforts of the staff in compiling this record. To the Mistura staff and those who helped so efficiently, especially do I wish to express my grati- tude. They have taken my hurried, jumbled direc- tions and my vague explanations of the work they were to do, and they have done much better than I had hoped. This year book is the creation of the whole group, each doing his appointed task. The aid of student members in producing this annual was indispensable. The 1940 Mistura is yours. I hope you will see in it an accurate picturization of the persons and events which made the past college year one of the most successful in the history of I. C. P.

SCHOOL SONG Page sixteen DEAN NILES Everyone familiar with the activities of I.C.P. is ac- quainted with EDWARD H. NILES, Dean of our College. Dur- ing the past many years his influence and instruction have been the guiding light to hundreds of I.C.P. students. Dean Niles is a fitting example for young men and women, and a teacher of rare ability. He is well informed in the fields of Pharmacy, Medicine and Literature. Dean Niles has always held an individual friendship with each member of the student body and these years of study and preparation under his guidance will always be remembered. FACULTY Page seventeen FACULTY PROFESSOR JONES Biology and Pharmacology Department PROFESSOR MICHENER Chemistry Department Page eighteen FACULTY The Indianapolis College of Pharmacy, with a faculty of fourteen, now has the largest teaching staff in the history of the school. A constant enlargement in the student body has necessitated an increase in the faculty in re- cent years. This has made possible better in- struction with smaller classes, and a closer con- tact with individual students. This college offers a four-year course in Pharmacy with various electives for students desiring advanced work. Each course is di- vided into a number of laboratory and lecture hours, the fulfillment of which gives the stu- dent a definite number of credit hours. The college curriculum includes courses in Phar- macology and Biology, Pharmacy, Chemistry, and Academic subjects with various electives. Edward H. Niles has been Dean of the col- lege for the past twenty years. Dean Niles has a degree of Doctor of Pharmacy and Bache- lor of Science at this college, also a Bachelor of Arts degree from Butler University and has completed additional work at Indiana and Chi- cago Universities. Besides acting as general advisor to all instructors and to the students themselves, he teaches courses in Mathema- tics, Economics, and various electives. Hos- pital Pharmacy has been added in the past year and is taught by Dean Niles with Profes- sor Ambroz instructing in the laboratory work. Professor Ambroz is in charge of courses in pharmacy, assisted by Professor Jeffries. Pro- fessor Ambroz has Ph.G. and B.S. degrees from State College of South Dakota and an M.S. degree from the University of Tennessee. He has also completed additional work at Uni- versity of Florida.

The College Library is one of the most improved departments of our school. In the fall of 1938, John R. May, a graduate of Indiana University, w as placed in charge of the College Library. Much of the improvement of this branch of our college may be credited to the excellent work of our Libra- rian. Mr. May classifies and records all new books promptly upon their arri- val and keeps the room in proper order at all times. He assists students at all times in obtaining the desired books or magazines and keeps student records for all out-going books. During the past two years the library has been completely reclassified under the Dewey Decimal System of classification. A new card catalogue has been prepared, listing all books individually as to author, title, and subject. This is a very efficient filing method as any book may be located at a moment ' s notice. Page txoenty-four LI BRARY. . . . The Indianapolis College of Pharmacy has a very complete library containing a total of over 5000 volumes. The library has been in- creasing at the rate of more than three hun- dred books a year. It has a standing sub- scription of over one hundred magazines and trade journals. Thirty-six of these jour- nals are bound each year, including current issues of such publications as: Indiana Pharmacist, Annals of Medical History, Bio- logical Abstracts, American journal of Phar- macy, Journal of American Chemical Soci- ety, Franklin Institute, and many others. The library has a very complete selection of reference books in the fields of Pharmacy, Medicine, Bacteriology, Public Health, Chemistry, and related subjects. It has a wide selection of popular magazines, as well as books of current fiction, hobbies, religion, and social science. The literary contents in classical litera- ture include the complete works of such authors as Alexandre Dumas, 0. Henry, Browning, Dickens, Cooper, Milton and other classical and modern writers. Bound copies of the Harvard Classics, Indiana Year Book, Journal of Agricultural Chemists, and History of the World serve as valuable books for reference work. Modern magazines include Reader ' s Di- gest, News-Week, Hygeia, Commentator, and a variety of others. In addition to the library, the professors receive various copies of publications pertaining to their special- ized courses. The average daily attendance in the li- brary is forty-three, which is a thirty percent increase over last year ' s attendance. The library serves as a room for relaxation as well as a quiet room in which to prepare for classroom meditation. The library is general headquarters for Professor Patterson and members of The Capsule staff. It has also ser ved c apably as office protem for many long hours of extensive effort in the prepa- ration of this book. The room is properly adorned, containing pictures of our faculty members and large class pictures of hundreds of pharmacists who have gone on before us. The library has been constantly improved from year to year with some cost to the college. Underclassmen, you are very fortunate to have such an extensive and complete library at your disposal and we hope that you may use it to your greatest advantage. H M U Miss Lydia E. Koepper Secretary of the Indian- apolis College of Phar- macy For the past ten years, Miss Lydia E. Koepper has been Secretary of the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy. She has also served as personal secretary to the Dean during this time. She is in charge of all office records and the college book store. Miss Koepper renders much valuable service to the faculty and to the entire student body. She is never too busy to take a telephone message, to help a student find employment, to loan a pencil or look up an individual record for any student. We are proud of the efficient and capable manner in which she has always aided our class and the help she has given to the many students before us. Page twenty-six HE M I S T U THE FACULTY OF I. C. P. Asleep in my study it was sporty I visioned our faculty of 1940, And this wonderful school of Pharmacy, Hurrah! We salute you, I. C. P. First is Dean Niles we ' ll all agree, Knows his Pharmacy from A to Z ; The Dean — a wizard of our profession Never too busy to help with a lesson. Next let us mention Prof. Ambroz, With a method of teaching what he knows. He lectures well in drug Dispensing. And his Pharmacy is most convincing. Now Prof. Jones, he ' s a regular scout, His Materia Med. may make you pout. A friend of us all, or perhaps a lass. Squire of many a Pharmacog. class. Prof. Michener? Why he instructs Chem. Oxidation equations! He ' ll balance them. Now let ' s begin, to start, to commence ; His Organic Chemistry is rather dense. To a class in Pharmacy next we go Prof. Jeffries is there, you know. He dictates History at a mighty rate; To hunt or fish he ' s never late. Prof. Patterson, praise to thee; Pat graduated from I. C. P. Is Bio-Chemistry his real joy, or The Senior-Class sitting on the floor? Now let us journey to Bacti. Lab. Prof. Prettyman no doubt we ' ll have. He ' s tall and handsome (quiet you mugs) He ' s a natural hunter of colored bugs. FACULTY Page twenty-seven HE M I S T U Prof. Schumacher of Butler realm, In Freshman English he has the helm. We all have learned and all agree, It ' s incorrect to say: It ' s me . Prof. Harwood, his very first year. Has many friends as you shall hear; In Pharmaceutical Chem. he keeps tab. He ' s an eager helper in every lab. Dr. Schaefer is our skilled M.D. He lectures in Physiology. Don ' t bother to study, learn, or cram. You aren ' t supposed to pass that exam. Mr. White in Law knows his stuff, His Saturday lecture isn ' t enough. I challenge you to doubt me that. He has no love for a Democrat. Miss Koepper, secretary of our school; To help each student is her rule; She helps us all, I ' m sure you ' ll agree, Please, a bottle of ink or a lab key . Prof. SwansoR, teaches Bio-assay; I ' ll pass that exam, I hope, I pray; But won ' t all that stuff drive you silly? He ' s from the research Staff of Eli Lilly. Now Mr. May keeps the Library right. Yes you may enter, but please be quiet. There ' s many an article to study or read. He ' ll help you find the book you need. But let me awake, I ' ve slept too long; Yes, this faculty is a happy throng; But, underclassmen, really they ' re grand; It ' s a top-notch College of the land.

Classmates, school will soon be over, O ' er for you and me; Soon now we must part forever, far away we ' ll be; This is what will happen; again we ' ll seem to be Back there again in Indianapolis, and it seems that we can see Those old happy days of Pharmacy that are but a memory; The good old days, we can ' t forget them And the pranks we used to play; When we dream about the friendships and the teachers Then we long for that dear old I. C. P. SENIORS. ... ' 40 Page thirty H M U HISTORY OF CLASS OF HO FRESH I ES OF 36-37 On September 14th, 1936, seventy-one slightly bewildered students entered the mysterious realm of college life. They were representatives of five states, namely: Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Ohio, and South Dakota. Our freshman class, consisting of 64 men and 7 women, was heartily welcomed to the school by Dean Niles. We enjoyed the first week, since we were not interfered with by the all-important upper classmen as we tried to associate names with faces and subjects with professors. Our new life was soon oriented by finding a place of residence, becoming acquainted with classmates, getting jobs, and then buckling down to our routine of college work. We learned to appreciate Miss Koepper and her ability to answer all of our incidental questions. Plants and plant life began to have meaning as Pro- fessor Jones instructed us in Botany. Professor Jeffries introduced to us that famous old piece of apparatus peculiar to the profession of pharmacy, known as the mortar and pestle. The Dean instructed us in Pharmaceutical Mathematics after reteaching us how to make use of high school arithmetic. JOE MENDENHALL President ROBERT TODD Vice-President WILLIAM HUTCHIN- SON Secretary PAUL PORTTEUS Treasurer SENIORS. ... ' 40 Professor Michener very ably instructed us in the use of chemical facts with everyday life and with our profession. Professor Schumacher, presented with the almost impossible task of teach- ing a group whose interests were elsewhere the correct usage and expression of the English language, directed the endeavors of the class in that direction. Physiology, presented to us by Dr. Schaefer, enlightened us about the make-up and functions of our bodies. Six weeks of college life passed quickly, and the excitement of those first examinations was over. Dean Niles explained how little we knew about studying. Many resolutions were made after the mid-semester grades were issued. Everybody was more or less classified as to the student type. Shortly thereafter, the class was assembled for organization and election of class officers. Out of a choice and worthy field, and a closely contested race, the following students were elected for the year: Jack Hill -- President Earl Fletchall Vice President Frank Fossmeyer „ Secretary Dean Ambroz..... - _ Treasurer Immediately we transacted our first business which was the selection of a class pin. The first vacation came at Thanksgiving and there was but one thought, home . It was wel- comed by all, especially the out-of-state members of the class, many of whom had not been home since the beginning of the school year. Work was resumed intensively for a few weeks and then school was dismissed for Christmas vacation. After a few weeks back at sch ool we swung into the second semester, which was a repetition of the first in that there were days of study, brightened now and then by amusing class room hap- penings, mistakes and all that goes to make a college career a part of one ' s self. On one occasion two of the girls were unable to obtain powdered alcohol from the stock room, and reported such. As the days passed on, our laboratory work was more interesting because theory was being applied and practical results were accomplished. A basketball team was organized and sincerely supported by the student body. Dixon, Belton, Battista and Ambroz played, making a fine showing. Some members, missing from the laboratory, could be accounted for in the recreation room playing ping pong. With the consent of the faculty, the sport became a part of our lunch hour. With the completion of the first year at hand we looked forward to the next year, when we should assume the all important role of sophomores. The year ' s work was a complete success and we parted for our vacation with the intention of returning again in the Fall, and with a feeling of gratitude toward the faculty for their efforts in helping us to lay the corner-stone of our great adventure. Pharmacy. SOPHOMORE 37-38 Eager to avail ourselves again of the splendid educational opportunities presented by the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy, fifty-five members of our Freshman class returned to school. We welcomed three transfer students, William Hutchinson, Herman Roller, and Robert Atkins. Professor Prettyman, from Butler University, became a member of the faculty at this time. He will share the responsibilities of the Biology Department. The first few days were reconstruction days; laboratory desks were assigned and apparatus checked. During our spare moments we showed our authority as sophomores by making life miserable for the freshmen. The class being organized into two sections, the work proceeded smoothly, week after week going by, with a note of accomplishment on every hand. October found us with class officers elected and plans for social events underway. Through the leadership and guidance of Dean Niles all of the lady members of our class were initiated into the Lambda Kappa Sigma National Pharmaceutical Sorority, when Phi chapter was organized. This is the only chapter of this sorority in the state of Indiana. The monotony of the first semester was interrupted by the annual fraternity dance which was enjoyed by all. A little different type of work was taken up in which less theory and more laboratory practice occupied the curriculum. Many members of the class had located jobs which proved helpful in the class room and were encouraged by the college. Following the holidays, semester finals approached, bringing with them an atmosphere of sus- pense, fear, and wonder, according to the way in which we had conducted ourselves toward our preparation. Page thirty-two SEN IORS.... ' 40 On February 2nd, class work was resumed. The class was saddened when it heard of the death of Eugene Whitis, a very likeable class member and a good student. A few months of studying and standing in the laboratory gave us the idea that chairs were needed to aid in our comfort. The Dean came to our rescue, informing us the laboratory was a place to labor, and not to rest. Again we proceeded onward. As our leisure became noticeable, we anticipated heavier assignments from Professors Jeffries, and Michener, in their respective subjects. The Blue-Book grades show it is an established fact that Professor Michener ' s exams occur either before or after social events. What a relief that exams were soon over and work finished for the year. The class more than welcomed this summer ' s vacation. The class of 1940 is at the halfway mark of its college career. We do not lay claim to any special achievement but we do feel proud of our ability to discern the true purpose of our training — to be of service to mankind. JUNIOR YEAR 1938- 1939 The Fall of 1938 found students arriving with zest to begin their studies anew. A class of sixty students answered here to the roll call. We made new acquaintances with students transferring from other schools — James Mont- gomery, John Hemrick, Wayne Dunham, Ralph Thornburg, and William Rothwell. With the coming of the first month we began to feel as though we were really students and an intimate part of the institution. Organic chemistry was a popular subject, and how! Everyone worked in the laboratory, to his or her disgust at times, but Professors Michener and Patterson struggled to instill in our minds the belief that some day we would be real chemists. Many improvements and additions were made in the school. To the Junior class came the privi- lege of initiating new seats in the lecture room. Several offices were remodeled; and a new mimeo- graph was purchased. A fan system was installed in the pharmacy laboratory. A splendid im- provement in the library was made, when it was cataloged and reclassified by Mr. J. R. May, our new librarian. The college is very proud of the unusual display case built in the amphitheater. The case contains many rare and valuable collections pertaining to pharmacy. Our anticipation of a Thanksgiving vacation was preceded by a series of mid-semester exami- nations. We found many new incompatibilities besides those introduced by Professor Ambroz, our instructor in Dispensing Pharmacy. To the surprise of many, pill-pipes could not be ob- tained at the stock room. The sorority sponsored a dance at the Hoosier Athletic Club. It turned out to be a most color- ful and enjoyable occasion. After spending a few weeks back at school, after a delightful Christmas vacation, the second semester was upon us. The first weeks were spent like the first semester, in hard study, and we felt our time had not been spent in vain, and that pharmacy as a profession was going to be well worth the four years required to master it. Professors were beginning to expect us to know a little something now and then; and their language was becoming more and more professional as the days went by. As a whole we had learned when the occasion called for it, to function as a body. Bowling became a new activity, heartily supported by the student body. The tournament caused great excitement. We approached the end of the school year before we knew it. Our work kept us so busy that we allowed nothing of importance to happen that is worthy of being recorded here. We look forward to a reluctant parting at the end of the term, but we hope to return next September with higher ambitions and ideals than ever for the future. It is our desire to continue along these lines, and when we write the final chapter to our history in the year 1 940, may we say that the task is completed and well done. Page thirty-three SENIORS. ... ' 40 SENIOR YEAR 1939- 1940 On September 14, 1939, the senior class reassembled in the lecture room. There were sixty members in the class. We regretted the loss of three of our classmates, but this was compensated for by the entrance of three new students into our class. They were: Jane Smith, Gretchen Corey, and Melvin Wolf. Dr. Harwood, of Valparaiso University, became a member of the faculty at this time. He became a member of the Chemistry Department. Miss Koepper was in the office to welcome us back. She has proved our friend on many oc- casions. The first week was spent in the usual preliminaries, such as completing registration, first as- signments, and other organization work. The second week was the beginning of real school, consisting of lectures and laboratory work. Many of the students were mere novices at laboratory work, and their initial experience can now be looked upon with amusement. An air of dignity marked our carriage, but this seemed not to exempt us from many hours of study. This year we have the honor of initiating another course. Hospital Pharmacy, which has been added to our curriculum. It includes thirty-six hours of practical experience at the Indianapolis City Hospital dispensary under the supervision of Mr. Muse and Mr. Ulrich. Already this has proven very beneficial In our course of study. November 16th, mid-semester examinations began. The students seemed to realize the im- portance of these review exams, this being the last lap in our four lap course. Dr. KIrby, representing the Abbott Laboratories, presented a most entertaining lecture on Detailing Your Doctor . Thanksgiving vacation offered us a short relaxation and everyone appeared more eager to work. The necessity of electing officers was felt. The following students were elected for the year: |oe Mendenhall..-- President Robert Todd Vice President William Hutchinson _ - Secretary Paul Portteus - Treasurer Professors Ambroz and |ones were elected class sponsors and faculty advisers. The class decided to issue an annual, which the Dean and class sponsors approved. After a stormy class meeting and much electioneering, Charles Cummins was elected editor; Don Pruitt, business manager; and Thomas Belton, advertising manager. They worked very diligently to make this annual a success. Christmas holidays were drawing near, and everyone was rejoicing to think they could forget beakers and mortars for a few days, to indulge in frolic and really get back to life. Semester finals caused much unrest and proved a short test for both knowledge and endurance. A word to the wise is sufficient ; so we squared our shoulders and decided to make this year the most profitable. Due to the hospitality of the Eli Lilly Co., the senior class spent February 28, 1940, in a very enjoyable manner. The class visited the Indianapolis plant in the morning and was taken by the company to the biological laboratories at Greenfield, Indiana. In the evening, in the Travertine Room at the Hotel Lincoln, Mr. B. R. Mull was the principal speaker and gave ' an interesting talk on Drug Stores and Pharmacy . A show at a downtown theater followed the dinner. The trip was enjoyed by everyone and will long be treasured as a red letter day in our memories. The yearly enthusiasm for the Ping Pong Tournament was interrupted by a series of mid- semester exams; nevertheless, many games were witnessed by a large student body. Parke, Davis Co. extended an invitation to the senior class to visit their manufacturing plant and biological laboratories. We left Indianapolis, April 16th, traveling by train to Detroit, Michigan. That evening we enjoyed sight-seeing in the city. The next day was spent inspecting the plant and laboratories. Entertainment was provided for the group in the evening. It was a weary but happy crowd that returned to Indianapolis on the 1 8th. The trip was very educational and inspiring to every participant. Page thirty-four SENIORS. ... ' 40 As this annual goes to press, the class as a whole is harried with those inevasible final examina- tions. June 3rd will see us in caps and gowns, acknowledging the reward that is ours in return for our four years of effort spent in this college. Even as we graduate we can see another black cloud hovering on the horizon of our ambitions in the form of the State Board Examinations. It is the wish of the class as a whole that each and everyone of us may successfully account for himself at that time in a manner that will be a credit to our Alma Mater, that has come to mean so much to us in these past four years. To our friends and fellow students we feel a debt of gratitude for the kindness and hearty co- operation they have extended. As we leave dear old I. C. P. we pause to say farewell to the faculty, all of whom have given generously of their time and knowledge that we might be better fitted to serve our new em- ployers, the public. DEAN AMBROZ.

Page forty-two fA JUNI KS CLASS OF ' 41 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY It was a bleak, typical September day In 1937 when the doors of the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy swung open wide and bade a cheery wel- come to fifty-four freshman students, most of them very recent high school graduates. To these fifty-four students just embarking on a long and hitherto unknown voyage, a college career seemed very necessary. It was with much zest and zeal that we assumed the title of Green Freshies . Before many days had passed, we had become familiar with all our pro- fessors through their lecturing. Although we were not able to prepare a first class emulsion, we could make U. S. P. Simple Syrup after our first month of schooling, and we had a vague idea of how much water a 250 cc beaker would hold. Since no organization is complete without its executives, we held a caucus one day and proclaimed by secret ballot our class members for the positions as president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer. Professor Jones became our freshman class sponsor, assuming the task of guiding the plight of our ship through the deep, perilous waters leading us to our Sophomore year. During our freshman year, many students purchased class rings and pins, which were appropriately engraved with skull, crossbones and the letters I.C.P. Bledsoe President Pinella . . .Vice-President Webb Secretary Sheckell Treasurer CLASS OF Ml September, 1938, rolled around much too fast, but even so, we had repaired our hull and deck, fore and aft, mended the mainsail, and we were ready to lift anchor on the second portion of our scientific voyage. Most of our crew had returned from their summer months ' vacationing, and by this time we had begun to realize the true sig- nificance and advantages of our course. So far on our journey we had encountered but little bad weather. But ' ere long we began to sight icebergs, atolls and huge animals in the form of Pharmacognosy, Chemical Analysis, and Manufacturing Pharmacy. Nevertheless, we were very willing to for- sake our former title of Green Freshies to be known as the Saucy Sophomores . Pro- fessor Jones was again to be our class spon- sor, and a new group of class officers was installed by popular vote. It was about this time that we learned some of the more in- tricate phases of the pharmaceutical arts and sciences. As each day passed we gazed more optimistically at the horizon, for we knew that we soon would be half-way through our voyage. September, 1939, found our crew men- tally refreshed, and none the worse from our previous months of hard study. Jolly Juniors immediately became our nick- name, and jolly we were. Having passed our first two years of sailing the high seas of pharmacy with few mishaps, we were classed as upperclassmen. We began to assume the aspect of mature apprentice pharmacists, and we had profited immense- ly from our previous experience. Again we selected our class officials, Professor Jones still remaining our class sponsor and ad- visor. On the night of January 29, 1940, we Juniors held a class party, the first of our college career. Everybody present had a very enjoyable time. Each day found us all on the vigil for those nemeses of the sea. Organic Chemis- try, Materia Medica, and Dispensing Phar- macy, lest at some unexpected time they would pluck some unfortunate sailor from our midst. But diligent study and persever- ance have been ours for these last three years, and the remaining forty-four of our homeward bound class are pointing with anxious hands to that port of joy, accom- plishment and distinction — Graduation. Even though we still have one-fourth of our mythical sea venture remaining, we can fearlessly say that the final leg of any jour- ney always seems the longest, but often the most pleasant. R. Clay D.

And thru the halls upstairs and down These thirsty students run Until too much of noise prevails And professors spoil the fun. Each person airs his pet dislike While waiting for his turn. The drinking fountain ' s quite the place The current news to learn. Byron Lucas Page forty-seven HE M I S T U COLLEGE DAZE When we study Pharmacog., Everything seems in a fog. Aloe, Ginger, Cocculus, About all these they make a fuss. But if there were no drugs to learn, And all the profs were cold and stern, You know right now where we would be; We ' d say goodbye to I. C. P. In Chemistry are formulae We learn them but we wonder why. Beakers and flasks and graduates Solutions, salts, precipitates; Tests for Aluminum and Lead, To study these requires a head. The hardest blow it seems to me Is when we pay our breakage fee. And now we turn to Pharmacy From N. F. VI to U. S. P. Elixirs, powders, ointments, pills Spirits prepared in copper stills. Exams galore and mental strain. Doses to learn that tax your brain. Our only hope is looking toward The day we learn we ' ve passed the Board. Adele Lobraico Page forty-eight H M U CLASS OF ' 42 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY During the early part of Septem- ber in 1938, the largest class of its time, totaling eighty-three students, entered the portals of the Indian- apolis College of Pharmacy for the first time — entering into the career and profession of Pharmacy. Four states of the union — Indiana, Il- linois, Ohio and Michigan — were represented by this record-breaking class. The first two weeks of school can truly be classified as hectic — new adjustments to be made, new sur- roundings, new teachers and new faces. Such terms as Pharma- copoeia , Sternocleidomastoid , Parenchyma , etc. were mentioned and many of the students thought that these were the names of some of the instructors or perhaps the roll was being called. After the first two weeks though, each student was quickly becoming adjusted and ac- quainted with his new adventure. At last the big moment arrived — students would start laboratory work the next day. Everyone had been waiting for this moment, and now the chance had come. The lab- oratories were entered and here such things were discovered as, Precipi- tation , Theoretical Yield , Levi- gation , and Calci-nation . Also that glass was insoluble in the water running through the table troughs. Accounting for lecture work, new theories were discussed, chemical and botanical terms launched, and pharmaceutical math was entered into. The days were quickly passing by — class officers were elected, class pins ordered, bowling tournaments held, and Christmas vacation was now in sight. The two weeks ' vaca- tion proved to be really restful, those first semester exams loitering in the offing. ROBERT ARROL President GLENN CHILDRESS Vice-President WARD SUMMY Secretary ROBERT PLUNKETT Treasurer SOPHOMORES CLASS OF ' 42 These exams proved only another hurdle to be passed, and during the last few days of January the new term had begun. During the second term, the same course was continued with more interesting mate- rial boring farther and farther in. Bowling tournaments, basketball games, and class meetings were continually held and the first year had passed before most had really no- ticed. Finals were then held during the last of May and this was the last hurdle before the summer vacation. Came the fall of 1939, school had begun again and now these students were distin- guished sophomores. Perhaps a smaller class had returned, but what was lost in number was made up for in enthusiasm. The last part of September was spent in reorganizing and class officers were elected, basketball started and class parties planned. Everyone was busy in one way or another — Pharma- cognosy, Manufacturing Pharmacy, Qualita- tive Analysis, Pharmaceutical Latin, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Again the time was quickly passing, and Christmas vacation was a forgotten memory with final exams again staring into the faces of all. These were taken and the final lap of the Sopho- more year was started. Classes were nearly the same as they had been during the previous three semesters, with perhaps a few more breathing spells. Bowling tournaments, ping-pong tourna- ments, and basketball provided recreation during the last three months. The Sophomore Class wishes to express its sincere appreciation to the faculty, Dean Niles, Mr, May and Miss Koepper for their untiring efforts in bringing it closer to the goal of Pharmacy: we hope when the final chapters are written in 1942, that all work will lead to the ladder of success — For when that one Great Scorer comes To write against your name, He writes not that you won or lost But how you played the game.

Hutchinson Page fifty-four H M I U CLASS OF M3 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY On September 13, 1939, the now famous class of ' 43 was born. Ninety members, consisting of three girls and eighty-seven boys, made up the class. Four states and most of the counties of Indiana were rep- resented. The first week we were in a daze most of the time, what with strange surroundings, strange faces, and many a fond thought of home. We soon became acquainted among our- selves, however, and found that our professors were not the ogres of our imagination, but real human be- ings like ourselves. Due to the illness of Dean Niles, Professor Ambroz, who had met most of the freshman students dur- ing registration, introduced the pro- fessors to the freshman class. The professors in turn introduced us to the worlds of Botany, Chemistry, Pharmacy, English and Pharmaceu- tical Mathematics. Soon the need for organization arose and the following members of our class were chosen: Marvin Archer, President; Don Murphy, Vice-president; Joyce Roesch, Secre- tary; and Henry Kyburz, Treasurer. A committee was appointed to select our rings and pins. They were made specially with the school emblem in an attractive design. The Freshmen held their first class party December 18, 1939, in the school social room. Cider and doughnuts were served as refresh- ments and a good time was enjoyed by all. MARVIN ARCHER President DON MURPHY Vice-President JOYCE ROESCH Secretary HENRY KYBURZ Treasurer ' ' -wtm. . T f FRESHMEN CLASS OF ' 43 At noon on December 20, 1939, the class disbanded for Christmas vacation. On January 2, 1940, the class reassembled and began to pre- pare for final examinations. On January 29, the class, now made up of eighty-one members, be- gan second semester work with two new subjects, namely Chemical Mathematics and Physiology. During the month of February the class began planning a freshman- sponsored dance for the college to be held sometime in March. The dance was held on March 28, with a large attendance including most of the faculty. During March and April a ping- pong tournament was held in which the freshman class entered more members than any other class and made a good showing. In the latter part of April the Bot- any class went on a field trip to Fort Benjamin Harrison, for the purpose of coming in closer contact with plants in their natural environment. The class is now eagerly (?) awaiting the FINALS to be held in the latter part of May, hoping against hope that we will all return next September as Sophomores.

As we delve into the matter we find it has a simple, yet a quite unbelievable, beginning. Physicians and pharmacists were formerly the same. Later, as the art of medication grew, a differentiation began. Alchemists sprang into being. Their occupation was called Alchemistry, and its origin has often been asso- ciated with early evidences of the importance attached to gold. In short, it was an attempt to turn all the baser metals into the noble metals. This later developed into the search of the Elixir of Life which was sometimes called the Philosophers ' Stone, and was depicted as a panacea for all human ills, capable also of restoring youthfulness and prolonging life. Not only was it supposed to possess these qualities but also to change all base stones into precious ones and soften every kind of glass. The designations of the stone and the accounts of its appearance are innumerable. It was often assumed to exist in different orders or degrees of perfection. Through the centuries alchemy gradually was replaced by scientific chemistry as we know it today. The dying spark of the alchemic torch had lit the flame of a new chemistry, which arose Sphinx-like from the ashes of the old. T.

C. C. Page sixty-two - c l- s TH E STAFF Early in our senior year, Dean Niles expressed a desire that we publisin The Mistura , the senior yearbook of progress. The Senior Class responded immediately and the faculty selected the skeleton staff to begin work at once. The important task of Editor-in-Chief was placed rightfully upon the capable shoulders of Charles Cummins. Don Pruitt was selected as Business Manager and Thomas Belton was placed in charge of advertising. These students were capably assisted by Carl Kyburz, Jack Hill, and Leo Dorn in their respective positions. This staff in collaboration with Dean Niles selected the remaining staff. These students were selected because of their individual interest and ability in their special field. We wish to thank the entire class, the faculty, and the student body for their splendid co-operation and assistance in helping to publish this book. Carl Kyburz The student gets the book, The school gets the fame. The editor gets the worry, The staff gets the blame.

These persons were Dean Niles, Pro- fessor Patterson, and Darwin Aid- rich. The purpose of this paper is not only to describe the student and college activities, but also to create a friendly and cooperative spirit among the students. The task of editing it was placed mainly in the hands of the students. With these things in mind, the editors proceeded to select three re- porters from each class, and The Capsule was well on its way toward publication. The first issue of The Capsule appeared April 5, 1939, and it was received with much enthusiasm by the student body and faculty alike. For the first time in several years it became quite apparent that, in addition to the cooperative spirit among the student body, there was also ample and adequate literary ability among the students. Four issues were published during the remaining months of 1939 spring quarter. Since its first issue, The Capsule, a four-page publica- tion, has shown a continual improve- ment with each issue. The editors believe that its primary purpose has been fulfilled, and that it has borne its duty well. We hope that The Capsule will always remain a part of the school life of I.C.P. The reporters for the year 1939- 40 were: Robert Bell, Ross Carpen- ter, William Krogh, Robert Staggs, Roselene Freije, Craydon Blue, Har- old Clark, Byron Lucas, Richard Clay, Max Boyd Apple, Hilda Sakas, and Darwin Aldrich.

Staggs CAPSULE Paffe sixty-seven HE M I S T U HISTORY OF LAMBDA KAPPA SIGMA SORORITY Lambda Kappa Sigma was organized under the name of Lambda Kappa Society at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, Boston, on October 14, 1913. In 1916 the name was changed to Lambda Kappa Sigma and during the next year the local society took steps to nationalize the sorority, becoming Alpha Chapter, upon the organization of several chapters in other schools. The council of Alpha Chapter conducted the affairs of the Sorority from 1917 until May, 1922, when a graduate Grand Council was organized. This council served the national sorority until 1926 when the first biennial was held in Boston. The constitution as revised in 1925 provided that at this convention there should be three members-at-large elected instead of four. At the 1932 biennial the constitution was revised to include the office of Editor and eliminate the six year member-at-large. The first copy of the Blue and Gold Triangle appeared at the 1926 biennial and was published annually until 1930 when it was changed to a quarterly. All life subscriptions are placed in an endowment fund, the interest of which is to be used for publication of the Triangle. Successive biennials have been held in Chicago, 1928; San Francisco, 1930; Philadelphia, 1932; Chicago, 1934; Boston, 1936. The flower of Lambda Kappa Sigma is the yellow chrysanthemum; the colors are old gold and blue. October 14 of each year is set aside as Founder ' s Day which is uni- versally observed. Each chapter provides a special program in commemoration of the founding of the sorority in 1913. Appropriate messages should be sent to each of the living founder members of the individual chapters. March 15 of each year is Hygeia Day , when the first woman phar- macist, according to Greek Mythology, is honored. Hygeia was the goddess of health and daughter of Aesculapius, the god of healing who not only healed the sick and wounded, but even brought the dead back to life. The preparing of the medicine ordered was left to the charming Hygeia, who in works of art is portrayed as a youthful and beautiful woman, clad in long flowing robes in the act of feeding a serpent from a shell. A purely scientific and professional program is suggested for observance of Hygeia Day, includ- ing a reunion of graduate members. Page sixty-eight LAMBDA KAPPA SIGMA SORORITY PHI CHAPTER During the college year 1936-1937. the women students at the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy desired to form a chapter of Lambda Kappa Sigma Sorority. Through correspondence, we learned that we must first have a well organized local sorority. In the spring of 1937, a meeting was held at the College of Pharmacy, and with the cooperation of Dean Niles the Cinchon Sorority was organized. A con- stitution and by-laws were adopted and the following offi- cers were elected: president, Ruth Knierim; vice-president, Roselene Freije; secretary, Florene Taylor; treasurer, Lu- cille Kuhn. The regular meet- ing day for the sorority was the third Thursday of each month. After the summer vacation regular meet- ings were resumed in October, 1937. It was decided to have two monthly meetings. The first meeting was to be on the first Friday of each month at the College and the second was to be held in the homes of the sorority members on the third Sunday afternoon of each month. The Cinchon Sorority then had a mem- bership of thirteen including ten active members. In January our sorority extended its ac- tivities and a publicity committee and an entertainment committee were appointed. The activities of the sorority continued throughout the year. The American Chemi- cal Society held a dinner in the Social Room of the college in which the sorority mem- bers helped serve. The Sorority gave a dance at the Hoosier Athletic Club and everyone en- joyed themselves. In April the sorority gave a dinner in the so- cial room of the college. One hundred fifteen attended. In April our secretary wrote to Mrs. Dirstine to ascertain the details for becoming a chapter of Lambda Kappa Sig- ma. Mrs. Dirstine was very cordial and help- ful. It was finally decided that installation should take place on June fourth and fifth. Mrs. William H. Collins of Chicago was our installing officer. We found her work to be very inspiring and impressive, and we were pleased to become a member of such a dis- tinguished sorority. Lambda Kappa Sigma. Our installation dinner was held at the Columbia Club. •Jl 1 HE M I S T U LAMBDA KAPPA SIGMA This is the first chapter of this sorority to be installed in the state of Indiana. The first officers were: president, Lois Teeter; vice-president, Ruth Knierim; secretary, Florene Taylor; treasurer, Mrs. Richard Teeter, The past officers are: president. Hazel Abdon; vice-president, Roselene Freije; corresponding secretary, Anita Battista; recording secretary, Ruth Knierim; treasurer, Adele Lobraico. The newly elected officers are: president, Roselene Freije; vice-presi- dent, Lucille Kuhn ; corresponding secretary, Anita Battista; recording secre- tary, Florene Taylor; treasurer, Adele Lobraico. The officers and members of Phi Chapter are proud to be a part of such an outstanding national pharmaceutical Sorority. It is our desire to conduct our lives so as to be a credit at all times to the high standards and efficiency which its ideals have impressed upon us. Pacje seventy HE M I S T U DOING OUR PART For four years now, we ' ve been to school, To gain our share of knowledge. In Pharmacy, and other things Of learning in this college. Each year we come and do our part. And then our friendships vary. At first, it ' s Tom, or Phil, or Joe, And next it ' s Lee or Larry. We sometimes had to look around On Prof ' s our fate befell. For some we thought were prudes or pains Really turned out swell. Each one of us must do our part. In this school ' s expectation; And fill our lot; where ' er the spot; After graduation So now our days are numbered. In life we ' ll find a place, Where we can do our little bit; To help the human race. W. Prasuhn Page seventy-one 0 1 • -% KAPPA PS I FRATERNITY HISTORY Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity was founded at the Medical College of Virginia on December 1 5, 1 879. The organization was the first Creek letter society established in the colleges of pharmacy in the United States. It is a strictly pharma- ceutical fraternity with mem- bership limited to Colleges of Pharmacy. There are two classes of chapters, viz., col- legiate and graduate. The chapters of both classes have equal rights and privileges. The governing body, called Alpha Chapter or the Grand Coun- cil, is first on the chapter roll. Total Chapters: 89 (Colle- giate Chapters, 53 ; Graduate Chapters, 36). Total member- ship: 12,395. The fraternity is divided into fifteen provinces. It publishes its Constitution and By-Laws; The Agora, an esoteric publica- tion which contains the directory and which v as published annually from 1903 to 1910, since then every five years: The Mask, a periodical, issued every month during the college years from 1903 to 1910, and since then issued quarterly; and a song book. The Fraternity is governed by Alpha Chapter or the Grand Council which has met in annual conventions from 1879 to 1908. until 1922 biennially, and since then every four years. During the interim between sessions, the administration of the fra- ternity affairs is in the hands of the Grand Officers. The provinces meet in conventions during years other than na- tional convention years. The Fraternity colors are scarlet and cadet gray. The flower is the red carnation. The badge is diamond shaped, displaying a mask raised from the face on the black enamel center. The Greek letters Kappa and Psi appear one above and one below the mask. The eyes on the mask and the border of the badge may be jeweled. Page seventy-two THE MISTURA KAPPA PS I BETA UPSILON CHAPTER Beta Upsilon Chapter of Kappa Psi originated from a local fraternity called Psi Chi Psi which was founded in January, 1929, through the efforts of the faculty. Junior and Senior members of this school. On February 26, 1930, Psi Chi Psi was installed as Kappa Psi. Dr. Darbaker, of the University of Pittsburg, National historian of Kappa Psi, officiated with the aid of Mr. Painter from Louisville College of Pharmacy and our own beloved Professor Jones, who hails from Xi Chapter at Ohio University. There were twenty charter members of whom three were facultate, namely: Dean Niles, Professor O. G. Anderson, and our deceased brother, Pro- fessor Edward F. Wagoner. Officers for the first term were: Chas. R. Rogers, Regent; James A, Sul- livan, Vice Regent; Oliver G. Anderson, Secretary; and Larry Lamborne, Treas- urer. Under the guidance of these worthy men Beta Upsilon Chapter soon moved forward. New members were added and social activities were started consisting of banquets, parties and other forms of diversion. It was from this strong foundation that Beta Upsilon has grown to what it is today, one of Kappa Psi ' s outstanding chapters. At the beginning of the year 1931 Beta Upsilon organized a basketball team that was destined to hang up a great record for the Old Rose and Cadet Cray. In November, 1932, initiation was given to eight new members and Professor Ambroz transferred from Tennessee. A formal banquet was held in their honor at the Hotel Lincoln in the Lincoln Room. Many outstanding dinners and dances have been held since then which will long be remembered by everyone. Beta Upsilon has as its aim all that is good and honorable in Pharmacy and pledges its sincere support to the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy and all its projects. The officers for 1 939 were: president, Charles Cummins; vice-president, Tom Belton; secretary, George Kimbrough; treasurer, joe Battista; historian, Darwin Aldrich; sergeant-at-arms, Acky Carderelli; chaplain, Dean Ambroz; faculty advisor. Professor Jones. The present officers are: president, Robert Arrol ; vice-president, Dar- win Aldrich; secretary, Roger McCowan; treasurer, Richard Clay; historian, Harold Brickly; sergeant-at-arms, Robert Hardy; Chaplain, Willard Cook; faculty advisor. Professor Jones. The present membership stands at twenty-two. Three new members have been received since the start of the 1939-40 school year. There are five faculty members. Dr. Harwood being the latest faculty member to join our ranks. Beta Upsilon chapter has had a total of one hundred and sixteen mem- bers, which includes eighty-eight graduate members. Page seventy -three HE M I S T U A PHARMACIST IN THE MAKING Take four fine full grown school terms, see that they are thoroughly free from bitterness, rancor, flunked exams, and sleepless nights; cleanse them completely from all freedom and enjoyable evenings. In short see that these four years are freed from all the past — have them as fresh and clean as when they first came from the great storehouse of time. Divide all these months into twenty-eight or twenty-nine school days. Do not attempt to make up the entire batch at one time, as often the whole lot is ruined in this manner. But prepare one day at a time in the following manner: Into each day put twelve parts of study, eleven of work (some people omit this ingredient and spoil the flavor of the rest) , ten of Chemistry, eight of Pharmacy, nine of meditations of exams, seven of Biology, six of hope, five of fidelity, four of rest (omitting this is like leaving out the acacia from an emulsion) , three of prayer, two of desire to succeed, and one for good luck. If you have no conscientious scruples, add two grams of good spirits, one fluid dram of folly, forty grains of play and q.s. with good humor. Pour into a mortar ad libitum cum vigorous agitation. Percolate thoroughly with bril- liant heat. Garnish with smiles and a sprig of joy to cover disappointment and failures. Submit to trying examinations and the board of Pharmacy, serve with cheerfulness and the graduation of an earnest, willing Pharmacist is a certainty. C. K. Page seventy-four HIAWATHA GOES TO PHARMACY COLLEGE If you ask me, whence my story? Whence the legend of the druggist, With the odor of his drugstore, With the pills and salve of healing; With the sound of grinding mortars, And the herbs and roots he ' s gathered; With the druggist ' s work to aid you ; As with care his service renders. I should answer, I should tell you: From the forests and the prairies; From the cities across the ocean, From the legends of Greece and China; From the lore of ancient Egypt, From the skill of priests and doctors. Comes the oldest of the health arts, Comes our choice of all professions. Said the father — Hiawatha Co ! My son, to Pharmacy School ! Seek for thee a trained profession. Mingle with the learned and learning. To our college he did hasten All alone walked Hiawatha. Proudly with his books and mortars; Proudly with his graduates and Arny. You shall hear how he, our hero Worked with care and with precaution; Learned the valence and the symbols Learned to balance his equations, Conquered his Math and Botany, Conquered his heap big U.S. P. He learned the dose of every drug. He learned their use; from whence they come. As Sophomores it was Quant, and Qual. Organic Chem. he loved them all; He studied plants and Pharmacog. Studied each native plant and herb. Learned the art of drug dispensing. Learned the skill of the Pharmacist. With his pills and powders folded, With his art of prepared tinctures. Our druggist is a Senior, now He has finished his Pharmacy, To these gray walls he says adeiu — State Board exam we have in view. By the effort of these four years. And by their joys and by their tears: Registered druggists we soon shall be Hiawatha left I. C. P. Carl Kyburz. Page seventy-five SOC I ETY Since we, as studious Freshmen, under- took to become ethical pharmacists, it has been our esteemed custom to have our time for play. It seems we did not outdo our pred- ecessors, but let it be known we were over- shadowed. To all those who made our so- cial calendar possible we extend our sincere appreciation. It was on the night of November 11, 1936, that we showed our right to brag. The Indiana Vagabonds furnished very ap- propriate music for the dance held by Kappa Psi at the Hoosier Athletic Club. It was noted some of the boys had too much on their hips and became quite lippy, much to the amusement of others. December 1, 1936, started a series of so- cial gatherings in the school. Students were invited to come and spend those weary eve- nings. Card games and the now-outlawed Bingo were played by those attending. The highlight of this series was the gathering held before we wayward sons de- ' parted for the Christmas holidays. Dean Niles furnished refreshments and prizes, and also added great dignity to the occasion. Dan Cupid started members of our class trotting to the altar on May 1 0, 1 937, when Virgil Baker and Rosemary Decker took the holy vows. The ceremony took place in the little gray church on the Monument Circle with the Rev. Powell officiating. On May 18, 1937, Kappa Psi gave a dance at the Hotel Washington for the survivors of the well-known Hell-Week . The new members were further initiated into the mysteries of the fraternity while partaking of a sumptuous repast. Music was furnished by a String Ensemble. The saddest event of our school career was the death of Eugene Whitis, a beloved member of our class. Truly a credit to oui class, Eugene passed away on November 3, 1937. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Whitis of Indianapolis, and a graduate of Washington High School of Indian- apolis. Due to restlessness of the students in general. Kappa Psi sponsored a gala dance at the newly decorated Hoosier Ath- letic Club on the night of November 17, 1937. Page seventy-six H M U The student body was invited, as well as any alumni who wished to refresh old mem- ories. AM members of the handsome sex were decked out in their very best, and from the array of fair damsels one was reminded of a beauty contest. Jack Berry ' s Orchestra furnished the music to which one group in- sisted on doing the Big Apple . The little man who wasn ' t there again stepped into our ranks taking into his fold of marriage Stanley Dobronovsky and Ida May Marsh. The new year was just twenty- two days old when he returned to his coup de grace. Where those stogies are is still a question unanswered. Newly initiated members of Kappa Psi were entertained at a dinner dance May 12, 1938 in the Riley Room of the Claypool Hotel. Faculty members of the fraternity and alumni were among the guests present. Although not officially confirmed, it is said, we quote, Certain frat brothers should be taught the difference between siesta and fiesta . While others were on vacation, William Hutchinson began a life of marriage with his bride, E. Bella Jones, at the Meridian St. Methodist Church on July 27, 1938. Miss Jones is a Hoosier imported from Oakland City. The newly organized Lambda Kappa Sigma Sorority, with Miss Lois Tetter as president, staged their first dance at the Hoosier Athletic Club on November 26, 1938. The uniqueness of this affair will well be remembered. To the delight of the eyes of many a gentleman were the Rosalyn girls in their stunning dances and ah-so- shapely figures. Music was in the swing-and- sway rhythm of Art Berry ' s Orchestra. After the dance many a couple was seen at the rendezvous on the Pendleton Pike enjoying a snack or a snip. After bargaining and arguing as to where and when. Kappa Psi held a dance in the Cold Room of the Hotel Antlers on October 6, 1938. As the slapping of that bass floated out of reach of our almost numb ears, ' twas the sweetie of Earl Roush who entertained the crowd with musical selections on the glass tumblers of an unbreakable variety. Earl ' s duck, it is said, possesses a mania for smashing glasses and we have come to the conclusion she is a distant relative of Carrie Nation, famous smasher of windows of the gay nineties. The aftermath of one of those so-publi- cised Hell-Weeks was held and celebrated on May 5, 1939 at a dinner dance in the Claypool Hotel. The newly elected mem- bers of Kappa Psi, six in number, enter- tained the guests by impromptu descrip- tions of the process of cleaning Monument Circle with a toothbrush. Walking Around the Monument backwards, and what have you, etc., etc. This delighted the members of Lambda Kappa Sigma, who were the guests of honor for the occasion. Ferris Corey, of the class of ' 37, being on the Pharmacy side of life, took one of the fairer members of our class, Cretchen Klee, to be his bride on June 1, 1939. It may be said they started the ball rolling for a very good season, as others in our midst followed shortly, before returning to the grindstone. As was predicted and whispered, The little man reappeared on June 1, 1939 to tie Gerald Studley and Evelyn Hancock to- gether with his famous and secret matri- monial knot. Even Stud does not remember how it was tied, nor does he care, according to informed circles. It may be said by some members of our class that a word well chosen brings the best results. As proof they give you the marriage of Omer Wagahoft and Mildred Lingeman which took place on August 31, 1939. It may not be admitted by Waggle, but it is likely he was talked into his marri- age by certain old timers in our class. It came to pass on the night of October 29, 1939 at the Hoosier Athletic Club that we, as seniors, lost to a very worthy oppon- ent in the art of whooping it up. We alibi that our four years have deprived us of that old ability to outdo both younger and older attendants at the dances of previous years. Our defeat was due mainly to certain mem- bers of the Freshman Class, being very ex- pert in the swingiest version of Jitterbugging two eyes could behold. It is time we passed unto you. Freshman Class, that famous Lov- ing Cup presented by the Lambda Kappa Sigma for the class with that old ability to swing. Page seventy-seven H M U One of the most enjoyable days we have spent in our entire school career was on Feb- ruary 28, 1940, when we were invited to visit the plant of Eli Lilly Co. A special convoy of buses took us to the Indianapolis plant on that snowy Wednesday morning. At the plant we were most cordially wel- comed by Mr. Eli Lilly, president of the con- cern. The class was divided into small groups with individual guides to show us points of interest. At noon the class reas- sembled and a group picture was taken. Then, to our delight, we had dinner on the house in the dining room. Our bus convoy returned and took we 60 to the biological plant at Greenfield, where demonstrations of methods of obtaining vaccines and anti- toxin were given. We then returned to In- dianapolis and vv ' ere taken to the Hotel Lin- coln. At the banquet held in the Travertine Room, Mr. B. R. Mull was the principal speaker, and acting as toastmaster was none other than Mr. Eugene Beaseley, Indian-, apolis District sales manger for the Eli Lilly Co. A theatre party followed at a down- town show. As this year goes gliding along, January, February, March, April, in the order named, we seniors look forward to two things. First, we have been invited to take a trip, not to see the country, but to go to Detroit and ramble through the large plants of Parke, Davis Co. If all goes well April 17th is the day. To complete this picture of pleasure, it is with good will that we leave our Alma Mater to become wayward sons. So now we send our copy to be corrected by that old Simon Legree, the Editor-in- Chief. We ' ve lost a few hairs, more sleep, and burned the midnight oil ' till three, try- ing to get this column done before the lash starts to swing. If there is anything left when he is through we can say it was Janie Smith and Robert Staggs who done it . R. Staggs J. Smith SOLDIERS Gr SAILORS Soldiers and sailors all are we. Fighting life ' s battles and sailing life ' s sea. But marble to heroes and shafts to might, Reared unto beauty and passing sight, Tell not of valor oft worthy the more Than graven legend and bloody lore; Who conquers self — though no trump sound, Nor shaft arises — true fame has found.

P., bas- ketball plays the most important role. Any student interested in the game is entitled to strive for a position on the team, and all are urged to play. Students from each class played on the team for the past season of 1939-1940. The Pharmics started out slow dur- ing the early part of the season, being stopped by the Indianapolis Bankers, Hoos- ier State Commercial, Indianapolis Art Academy, and the Dental College of I. U. Extension before gaining momentum to forge ahead. They came back strong, though, seeming to have hit mid-season stride by winning six of the following eight games. Some of the teams bowing to the Gold and Purples were the Indianapolis Bankers, Lincoln Chiropractor School, Den- tal College, Lambda Nu Fraternity, McNiels Lunch, and Hoosier State Commercial. Of the high-lights, the Pharmics met the N. C. A. G. U. Gymnastic College, but were turned back due to their superior oppo- sition, who demonstrated more experienced and more polished ball handling. Next came the City Tournament in which the Rx ' s won the first round but were defeated in the second round by the Weide- manns to the tune of 32-25. It can well be said that all members of the team entered into the spirit of the game and cooperated throughout to show that all of the playing was entirely for the love of the game. Thanks of appreciation must also be given to Bill Fink, coach, and Prof. Jones for their untiring effort of maintaining a team to measure up with the ones during the past now lost in the pages of yesterday. Page eighty H M U R PING-PONG Occasionally, in the course of diligent pursuance of the pharmaceutical arts and sciences, it becomes necessary in the eyes of most students to indulge in the slam- bang game of ping-pong or table tennis. So when March rolled around, we proceeded to dust off the tables and nets and prepared to engage in a few intramural games. We had not held a college ping-pong tourney since 1938 when Aldrich, then a mere freshman, took the honors by defeat- ing Ulrich, a senior ping-pongist. So we were all anxious to fight it out for the cham- pionship again this year. A total of 64 stu- dents, including one coed, signed for the tourney, and play began to determine the one student of those 64 who would reign as ping-pong champion for a year. To make it more interesting, each class held its own playoffs. The ultimate winners of each class then got together in a tourna- ment of Champions to determine the grand champion of 1 940. In the freshman class playoff, the favor- ites soon appeared to be Niles, Archer, Ben- nett, Krogh and Passo. Competition waxed stronger and stronger as the tourney pro- ceeded, and by the time the field was re- duced to two, the remaining players were Niles and Passo, the slight darkhorse. Passo proved his ability by defeating Niles in 3 of 5 close games for the freshman championship. The sophomore tourney found Jones and Adier fighting it out in the finals. Adier, by winning 3 of 4 games from Jones, was crowned the sophomore class champion. The junior tournament produced such players as Pinella, Clay, Knierim, George, Baker, and the defendingchampion, Aldrich. When this tournament had ended. Aldrich still remained the junior class champion by defeating Pinella in three straight games in the final match. Among the favorites in the senior class were Belton, Griffin, Wolf, Ambroz, Dun- ham and Arnold. Dunham and Belton met in the final match, and Dunham came through by virtue of 3 victories out of five games. Now for the big playoffs involving the four class champions. A glance at the four remaining exponents in the art of paddle wielding shows that Passo, Adier, Aldrich and Dunham met in the match which was to establish the I. C. P. champion. In the first match Dunham found Passo not resistant enough to his cross court slams, the result being 3 victories to one in favor of Dunham. In the second match, Aldrich and Adier fought for nearly an hour before Aldrich succeeded in winning 3 of the 5 closest games ever seen at I.C.P. Now we saw Aldrich, the Junior cham- pion and defending champion of I.C.P., matching his shots with Dunham, the driv- ing Senior champion and challenger. To the winner went honor and prize. To the loser, compliments and solace for his gallant showing and defeat. In the 40 minutes of brilliant play by both boys, Dunham took the lead 2 games to 1, only to lose the last 2 games by close scores. Thus another page in the history of ping-pong was written, with Aldrich the I.C.P. ping-pong champion of 1940, and Dunham, the runner-up. Page eighty-one HE M I S T U IN ASSAY LAB. To Assay Lab the Seniors go, Between the burettes row on row That mark our place while overhead, The ether fumes congest our head. Finish the sample ' ere you go; To you from failing hands we throw Methyl orange — be yours to try; If first you fail — be not dismayed For alkaloids must be assayed. Page eighty-two HE M I S T U FIGURE THIS OUT Theory — Senior Class of 1940 is the star class of I.C.P. Given — Fifty-nine Seniors. Prove — These form the star class in I.C.P. Proof: We the Senior Class: Have the best officers. Look up previous records. Have the largest graduating class. Ask any Senior. Are the most generous. Stroll around the office. before a make-up exan Are the best losers. Plenty of experience. Best inventors of perfect alibis. Ask the Faculty. Best class spirit. Yea! Gang, let ' s go. Most brilliant. Look at the grades. Cannot be equalled. Perfection at its peak. Ah heck you know it anyway so why go on. Therefore: Senior Class is the star class of I.C.P. No other suppositions possible.

Class felt that A word to the Dumb was suffi- cient . Satan wasn ' t a half a mile away — phew!! FEBRUARY Thursday 1 — It seems as though Professor Ambroz ' s talk yesterday really affected the class. Everybody was on time and ready even if they didn ' t go anyplace. Friday 2 — Ambroz plus surprise exam equals Blue World . Saturday 3 — Seniors had their first touch of Hospital Pharmacy by Dean Niles. Lab. started off by sealing ampuls. George Corey filled his stirring rod instead of his ampul. Monday 5 — Pledges of Kappa Psi are certainly supplying the student body at I.e. P. with candy and gum as a result of Hell Week which just started to-day. Tuesday 6 — Professor Michener for a change wanted to get rid of most of the class by 3:00 P.M. In order to check laboratory equipment with a few of the students he had Sammy Freije stay until 5:00 P.M. to keep him company. Wednesday 7 — Senior Party, everybody made mud pies out of their Cam- phorated Brown Plaster. Ho-Hum, social life is such a bore. Thursday 8 — Professor Michener says the hard way to clean a pipette is by turning it inside out . Dean Niles gave a short summary of what the class may expect on the State Board. Friday 9 — Chem. review — the difference between red and yellow Phosphor- ous is that red is red and yellow shouldn ' t be worried about. Ho-Hum (again), must be the weather. N D A R Page ninety-five HE MIS T U Saturday 10 — We heard that a group of our Freshmen and one of the senior girls took a trip up to the Northern part of the state. Miss Anita Bat- tista wasn ' t in any of the classes, could it have been you, Anita? Monday 12 — School was excused since it was Lincoln ' s birthday. If you be- lieve this I ' ll tell you another one quick! Tuesday 13 — Unlucky day, school anyway. Wednesday 14 — Math, review. We hear Fossmeyer eats this math, stuff up; it ate the rest of the class up. Why don ' t we come out of this slump? . . Thursday 15 — Portteus made his debut with a shiner! Debut among the debris. How crude, my, my — ! Friday 16 — Class meeting. Plans open house for the laity — then we laity down to sleep through Chem. Review. Saturday 17 — Danny Boy Fossmeyer left his pants at the door (he was shooting craps with Wolfe) . The barrel was furnished through the cour- tesy of the Coca-Cola Bottling Works. Monday 19 — Prof. Ambroz: You only have 26 question sheets so I ' ll hand out a few more to-day . Tuesday 20 — Freshmen subscribed for 51 copies of the Annual. Thanks to the Freshmen for their help. Wednesday 21 — Surprise! The lights went out during Prof. Ambroz ' s Ad- vanced Pharmacy Examination; it was so dark in the room that the class was dismissed. Quote — that was the one exam that I knew, such luck. Unquote. Thursday 22 — Economics examination. Prof. Ambroz said he hoped that the Dean would not have as much bad luck as he did yesterday. Friday 23 — The class certainly appreciates this: Prof. Jones padding his A L E N D A R Page ninety-six HE M I S T U Toxicology lectures to cover fifty minutes just to spoil a ping-pong game. Saturday 24 — Chuck Cummins pronounced fiscal as physical in reading a question in Economics. Chuck almost had Dean Niles on the wrong track. Monday 26 — Professor Jones announced that all Seniors must have their pictures taken by March 18th, 1940. He also mentioned in passing that this does not guarantee graduation. Tuesday 27 — Dobronovsky appeared in school minus his soup-strainer. Maybe his wife shaved it off while Dobby was asleep. Wednesday 28 — The class spent the day at Eli Lilly and Company, A great day! Thursday 29 — Dean Niles announced that the class is invited to visit Parke, Davis next month. Much favorable general discussion — Wonder who is going to swim the river this year? March Friday 1 — The month of March may be windy, but it won ' t stand up to a cer- tain group of seniors. Saturday 2 — It seems that the Saturday morning class should start at 8:15 A.M., for the few who attended were late.

A L E N D A R Page iiivefy-seven HE M I S T U R Thursday 7 — The class was shown a movie on a new anesthetic — Pentosal Sodium through the courtesy of the Abbott Laboratories. Friday 8 — Tom Belton and Joe Battista didn ' t sit next to each other to-day — Who has got whose goat and can ' t get rid of it? Saturday 9 — Exam in hospital pharmacy — Quiet please, Mr. Thornburg is in room .050. Monday 1 1 — George Kimbrough demonstrated that one can get scales from a pill tile as well as from a fish, but not nice green iron scales.

Saturday 30 — Anita Battista looks as fresh as a Daffydil this morning — could be. APRIL Monday 1 — April Fools ' Day — but there is one consolation — that there will not be any exams for a couple of days. Tuesday 2 — Professor Michener says that he wants the class to bear in mind that sources of error in chemistry laboratory does not include dirty equipment and careless measuring. Wednesday 3 — Lambda Kappa Sigma Dinner and the chicken wasn ' t burned. It gets better every year. Thursday 4 — A tared powder paper is not a torn one. — Michener Friday 5 — Just another hundred questions today — This racket had better be good when we are able to capitalize on the above. Saturday 6 — 8:00 class at 8:30 again. Even the Dean doesn ' t get here until 8:15 anymore. Stick around Dean Niles, we ' ll start at 9:00.

Thursday 11 — Don Pruitt ' s definition for an Alterative is as follows: An agent which promotes an unhealthy condition to a healthy condition . Friday 12 — Toxicology and Pharmacology exam followed by a Math. exam. It seems as though all the professors are trying to crowd exams in before the Class goes to Parke-Davis. Maybe they feel the Class will forget all they know after they have been to Detroit and back. Saturday 13 — It ' s rumored the girls won ' t cramp our style at P.D. Monday 1 5 — Poem- The Class is in an uproar, For from now on there will be no more; Tomorrow the Annual goes to Press, The Class ' s off to Parke-Davis for a two-day rest? m ■ ' r,: m A f. 5 i A PROPHECY CLASS OF ' 40 One day Dean Niles called me into his office and said, Due to the fact that the class of 1940 has proven itself to be so unpredictable and utterly care- free, I wonder if you could prevail on the spirits to give a forecast of the future of each of the individual members of the class. Knowing that Dean Niles was in quite a quandary over the problem of who should graduate and who should not, I agreed to try to coax the spirits into a passive mood , through the medium of the crystal ball. So the plans were made, Dean Niles, all the anxious professors, and myself met at the college one excep- tionally dark night to do our deed. The rendezvous having been prepared, we took our places. I was to peer into the ball. Things happened that dark and mysterious night that I never thought possible. After many long hours of intense concentration and pleading, the destinies of the members of the class of 40 were revealed. At first the images appearing in the ball were too misty to be seen, but in time they became clearer, and the first objects to be seen were the figures — 1950, A. D. Then came the image of Joe Mendenhall trying vainly to fold a paper of pow- dered charcoal with one hand and at the same time drawing a glass of beer with the other. Next I saw Judson Schmidt still attempting to crash the sport pages just to have an excuse to get out of studying. through the door, with a man behind her urging her to hasten. Ruth seemed to have a diamond ring on her left hand. Jack Hill was shown in tails, tophat and white tie, selling livestock medicine to a farmer. He seemed to be doing pretty well at that. Carl and Virgil Baker were establishing an all-time record by having a continuous fire sale In their drug store for the past ten years. Lucy Kuhn was still hurrying from place to place. No wonder you didn ' t get any taller, Lucy. You are wear- ing yourself off at the bottom as fast as you grow on top. George Freije was still the little ray of sunshine. He entertained his drug store customers with drum solos. George Corey and Earl Fletchall were given the bene- fit of the doubt and shown to be the best of friends, even though they are now always at each others throats. Robert Todd was still recuperating from the sweat he had trying to get out of paying damages when he backed his Ford into some innocent motorist ' s nice new After much pleading, Joe Battista came forth dressed in a large checked suit, working in a modern drug store apparently his own, and spending the proceeds on the big junkers . Upon asking as to the future of Ruth Knierim, there was a general blackout , but it finally lighted up again. She was seen sweeping four tough years out Tom Belton was shown leading a very peaceful life, working day in and day out. It ' s not very exciting, but it sure is profitable, Tom. Page one hundred two H M U Two figures representing Paul Portteus and Robert Pigg were next seen arguing. The point seemed to be whether they should get a job or not. I saw Pete Nussmeyer down at Evansville doing a pretty good job at running a drug store. I thought he would still be up at the Y looking out the window. What do you suppose he saw out there? Frank Fossmeyer seemed to have given up Pharmacy and was trying to find something more profitable, and doing pretty well as an investor in ball pools and such. Maynell Dalby was shown in the pose of the Thinker . He seemed to be trying to decide if his name was really Dalby or Dolby. William Prasuhn was still busy being the best soda jerker in the city of Indianapolis and the best listener- to-er of red hot dance bands broadcast by the local stations. After a blackout, I s aw Ralph Thornburg still trying to corner a certain girl down at Bloomington. William Williams was having a very good time being the best dressed man on Indiana Avenue. George Griffin was shown not having done anything about the drug education that he got at I. C. P. All he did was think about The Relation of Marriage to a College Education . The spirits had nothing to say about Cardarelli ex- cept — Achilloccia Cardarelli, Sodas and Drugs. Omer Wagahoft was still asking himself why hydro- gen explodes and why you must take off your pants after all the damage is done. This referred to the little incident way back when we all were a bunch of incau- tious freshmen. The spirits were very unkind to Rosy Freije and showed her working very contentedly in a drug store and asking herself why they taught her all the stuff about chemistry, pharmacognosy and such, when she was a student at old I. C. P. Bob Blowers had given up the art of Pharmacy and set himself up in a studio, drawing pictures for twice the money he ' d ever got in Pharmacy. Teford Cooper, the smallest man in the class of 1 940, believe it or not, had grown to be quite a robust indi- vidual. I saw Doyle Arnold with eight class graduates in front of him, and in great jubilation. He had spent the last ten years trying to combine music with the art of com- pounding drugs. He can now play the scale by striking eight partially filled graduates with a stirring rod. Carl Kyburz and Kenneth Kruwell were supposed to own a drug store in partnership. They can now sit all day and play that little game in which you use four lines in this way ---- . Don Pruitt was shown with a drug store on horse- back, traveling around the countryside. Don gets along nicely with farmers. Gerald Studley was still maintaining supremacy in the art of giving wrong answers to very simple ques- tions. Jim Dixon, Leo Dorn and Robert Gackenheimer were still trying to figure out how they could all get into that old model A and still be comfortable. Melvin Wolf was shown trying to better an almost perfect game with the galloping dominoes. Dean Ambroz was doing great experimental work on the subject of why a minor explosion occurs when con- centrated sulfuric acid is poured into distilled water. James Bagley was shown in his big drug store up on Indiana Avenue. Elwood Blower, that high pressure salesman, was shown selling his own preparations. His most profit- able item was his former hair grower; it was then being sold as a depilatory preparation. At this point I thought that the spirits had left us, because as I looked mto the ball it seemed to take on the appearance of water. My fears were soon forgotten because I saw a shark swimming in the ball chasing a mermaid. The shark had a face like that of Bill Rothwell. After the foregoing picture faded into nothing I saw the image of Tommy Coers, that genial gentleman of swing, offering a saxophone solo as a side attraction in his very prosperous drug store. It ' s nice work if you can get it. PROPHECY Page one hundred three H M U Arthur Henschen was pictured as a very prosperous wholesaler, sitting back in his easy chair selling us suckers our supply of drugs. Stanley Dobronovsky was shown having spent the last ten years perfecting a cigar especially designed for druggists. This one won ' t go out when laid down. Herman Roller was working in a drug store, whether his own or not I ' ll never know. He seemed contented enough though, because as usual he was as quiet as a mouse. Bill Hutchinson was doing very nicely playing in a riverfront honkytonk with his Tin Pan Band. He never seemed to have gotten into the drug business. Robert Atkins was shown as chief butcher in a slaughter house. I wonder how he overcame his horror at the sight of blood. Hazel Abdon was shown as a first class playgirl. 1 only tell things as I saw them. John Hemrick had joined the Anti-Soot League and was seen offering a speech from a soap box rostrum. Robert Staggs was still patting himself on the back for his wonderful imagination. He seemed to be saying that he didn ' t need a microscope to draw all those silly things in Bacteriology. Gretchen Corey was asking herself if it was necessary for her to go to Pharmacy School to be a good house- wife. Anita Battista, represented by an attractive figure, was shown keeping tab on all the boys at the Pharmacy School. Janie Smith, ten years after graduation, was still recuperating after that strenuous senior year at the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy. Ray Urich was arguing for the return of the barber shop bath tubs and the right to sing in them. Wayne Dunham was enjoying a position as ping pong coach on the faculty of the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy. Forest Pauli was shown as a very jovial individual with an excessively large abdomen and a very bald head, whistling while he works in his little drug store. James Montgomery was shown to own everything in the thriving little city of Brook, Indiana, except the drug store. Charles Cummins was looking forward with great anticipation to editing a record of the activities of the class of 1940. He seemed to have forgotten all the trouble he had editing the annual when he graduated. Just as the last of the prophecies were given, the dawn was breaking through and as the sun came up, the ball gave one last burst of color and then became dull and oqaque. From this I surmised that the spirits had left us. Dean Niles seemed very pleased that none of us were destined to disgrace the field of Pharmacy, even though some of the forecasts were not as good as he would have liked. If better goals are to be your lot, you are the ones to choose your paths. Maybe these forecasts are true, maybe not, only time will tell. Time is time and students are few. Time will change and so will you. Spirits come only in crystal balls, May you have success with very few falls. Florene Taylor was in charge of the prescription department in her husband ' s drug store. PROPHECY Page one hundred four H M U A SENIOR HIT PARADE Abdon — An Apple for the Teacher.

While to the laity Pharmacy usually con- veys only the routine work of the pharmacy or corner drugstore, the profession em- braces many closely allied sciences, such as: chemistry, bacteriology, and materia medi- ca. A few branches of these sciences in- clude the manufacturing of cosmetics, per- fumes, proprietary remedies and galenicals; the collection and identification of crude drugs; tests and assays for purity; and pre- paration of serums and vaccines. Thus there are many opportunities other than those offered to the retail druggists for women who pursue pharmaceutical educa- tion. The medical and pharmaceutical pro- fessions are alike open to her and await her successful achievement. There are sixty-seven schools of phar- macy in the United States of which the ma- jority require a minimum course of four years, leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy. In order to be a regis- tered pharmacist, the candidate must pass an examination before one of the State Boards, the requirements varying somewhat throughout the country. Women looking toward success in this field must be intelligent, neat, accurate, conscientious, honest in carrying out the technical requirements of their work, and tactful in their dealings with the public. As a class, women have been found to possess the objective measures of physical capacity, longevity, vitality, and endurance, to a marked degree; and are also gifted with a remarkable development of sympathy, intui- tion, and insight. These are all qualities in- dispensable in the modern struggle for rec- ognition in the professional world. One disadvantage in the admission of women to the practice of pharmacy has been the confinement during long hours, but this condition is rapidly being bettered due to the fact that many states have barred the employment of women after certain hours. Imagination of pharmacy suffering by en- trance of women into this field is wrong. If drugstores would employ more women phar- macists, much of the drug and cosmetic trade that the department store now enjoys would be turned to the smaller pharmacy. Women constitute over three-fourths of the shoppers, and those of the more refined classes will always prefer to buy personal items from women. All hospitals employ one or more trained pharmacists in the dispensary and many women are holding positions in this field as well as in diagnostic laboratories. Here the working conditions and hours are favorable to women. One qualification possessed by the majority of women, and of greatest im- portance in the dispensing pharmacy, is thei ' r patience in compounding accurately. Wo- men pharmacists are particularly adapted to fill the positions in the hospitals. The pharmacy is often one of the show places of this institution and under the supervi- sion of a woman it usually is in more per- fect order, is more scrupulously clean and in better showing condition. The de- mand for women pharmacists in hospitals is increasing and is greater than the supply. Many department stores maintain drug departments, offering an opportunity for women pharmacists to fill managing posi- tions, inasmuch as it is required by law that a registered pharmacist be in charge of such divisions. When seeking a position in the department store pharmacy, she must meet the competition of saleswomen whom the manager can employ for a third of the amount that she asks, or in the prescription department of the store must often over- come the prejudice of the manager who seriously objects to women associates. Pharmaceutical manufacturing plants have many divisions in which women may find employment. The analytical depart- ment and the pharmacy department offer many opportunities. Women all over the United States today are concentrating their energies in the routine work of various lab- oratories. The opposite traits of men and women are both necessary in the scientific laboratory. Although the members of the pharmaceutical profession have been rather conservative in the employment of women, they are rapidly awakening to the realiza- tion that here, as in many lines of work, the logical distinction should be among indi- viduals in reference to ability, and not be- tween the sexes. ROSELENE FREIJEand FLORENE TAYLOR. Page one hundred six H M U EPHEDRI NOLOGY The winter months are over. Cone are the hard wracking coughs of bronchitis; the painful, wheezy breathing of asthma; the sneezy sniffles of a head cold. But after all, what has been one of the great benefactors — some magic substance in nose drops, nasal jellies, liquid or capsule form to give us re- lief. Would I be wrong in mentioning Ephe- drine as this remedy? How familiar are you with this drug? Who discovered the source? What is the history of Ephedrine? Therapeutic properties? Where obtained? Ephedra or Ma Huang is the herb of Ephe- dra sinica, which has been used by Chinese physicians for ever 5000 years. It was one of the drugs which is said to have been tasted by Emperor Shen Nung, who placed it in the medium class . Probably even Confucius had something to say about Ma Haung. The Chinese used this herb chiefly as a circulatory stimulant, diaphoretic, anti- pyretic and cough sedative. In America a number of the Ephedra plants were used by the Indians for various purposes. The Coa- huila Indians made a cooling beverage from E. nevadensis and the Panamint Indians made bread from the ground roasted seeds of the same plant. In 1887 Nagai isolated the principle Ephedrine from Ma Huang while Chen, since 1 923, has given the drug and its active principles such extensive study that it is now one of our most popular medicaments. In 1924 Chen and Schmidt initiated a wide- spread distribution of literature listing all of Ephedrine ' s therapeutic values. It included its use as a stimulant to the respiratory cen- ter, dilation of the bronchi, palliative in hay fever, nasal catarrh and also used to prevent the fall of blood pressure that might occur in spinal anaesthesia. China was very enthusiastic over the use of Ma Huang in the manufacture of Ephe- drine. Probably this was due to the dra- matic circumstance that the traditional faith of the Chinese in one of their ancient reme- dies was justified by Western science. The natives were proud of the summer blossoms of their Ma Huang fields. They mad e a very efficient and productive cultivation. Then came the war clouds. These fields were seized like everything else by the greedy Ja- panese. No longer were the shipments of Ma Haung in neat compact bales. Adulteration increased more and more. The production and cultivation was careless. Many of the Japanese shipments of Ma Huang were re- fused by various pharmaceutical firms. In America there was much investigation being carried on with Synthetic Ephedrine. Work of this kind was important because in the first place should the synthetic form prove valuable therapeutically, it would greatly facilitate the question of supply, for now the production of the natural drug was inadequate to meet the demand for clinical uses. Secondly it was desirable to determine whether or not the natural and synthetic products had equal activity since most of the levo-rotary isomers are more powerful pharmacologically than the racemic form. Today a synthetic ephedrine is supplied by E. Merck of Darmstadt, Germany and by Merck Company, Rahway, New Jersey. Today all of these pharmacological ques- tions have been answered. Qualitatively, quantitatively and clinically the synthetic form possesses all the characteristics of the natural ephedrine. Due to the untiring work of the men of science, the United States can now manufacture enough synthetic ephedrine to supply its needs.

Dalby (after about a two-minute pause) : Did you say Doby or Dalby? Prof. Jeffries: I am now demonstrating a most dan- gerous experiment. If 1 am not careful, it may blow me to kingdom come. Draw. up just a little closer so you can follow me better. Pauli: Is my face dirty, or is it my imagination? Schmidt: I don ' t know about your imagination, but your face is clean.

Soon after an ambulance stops at the entrance of a hospital. A patient is admitted, hovering betv een life and death. His fate lies in the hands of three distinctly different individuals, a doctor, a nurse, and a pharmacist. Though they are all working for the same purpose, that of alleviating the suffering of the patient, yet their duties can not be overlapped. The doctor vi ill diagnose the patient ' s case, give instruc- tion to the nurse, and send prescriptions to the hospital pharmacist. The nurse will administer the prescribed drugs and carry out the physician ' s or- ders. The pharmacist has prepared the medicaments ordered in a scientific manner, backed by years of training and education. It is with this latter in- dividual that we shall pause, and consider his importance in a hospital phar- macy of today. Why do modern hospitals employ the full time services of registered pharmacists? To answer this, let us investigate the requirements of a phar- macy department in hospitals. The dispensary should operate for two purposes: 1. To render service not only to the patients but also to physi- cians, internes, nurses, and other members of the staff. 2. For economy to the hospital. To meet the first requirement, a registered pharmacist renders service to the patients by filling their prescriptions with professional skill. He serves the physicians by being well informed on new drugs or medicinal prep- arations placed on the market almost everyday; knowing their constituents, therapeutic uses, sources, doses, etc. He serves internes in much the same way, but in addition is careful to note their prescriptions more carefully. He is a source of information on all official preparations, new and nonofficial remedies and standard stock solu- tions used in the hospitals. Analyzing these and many other services of an efficient pharmacy de- partment, hospitals have come to realize the urgent need of a registered phar- macist in charge at all times. To meet the second purpose a registered pharmacist is trained to eco- nomically prepare stock solutions of commonly used preparations in the dif- ferent departments of a hospital. He can purchase supplies, equipment, etc., for the better maintenance of his department and other departments, often at a worthwhile saving to the institution. A registered pharmacist is educated in Bacteriology permitting him to prepare sterile solutions, properly store biologicals, test sterility of prepara- tions, and prepare antiseptics and disinfectants. He is also trained in Chemistry, enabling him to recognize incompatibil- ilies and how to overcome them. He knows solubilities, tests for purity of drugs, and if necessary can even make an analysis on preparations to deter- mine constituents and amounts present. A registered pharmacist ' s course in Materia Medica gives him a knowl- edge of Pharmacology, Pharmacodynamics, quality, habitat, sources, alkaloidal contents, and other plant principles of chemicals and drugs used in the art of healing. These are but a few of the qualifications which enables a pharmacist to maintain the functions of a first class, efficient hospital pharmacy department at a relatively low cost. Anita Battista. Page one himdred thirteen H M U With much respect we present here a list of alumni dating from 1932. It is intended that these names will bring back as many pleasant memories to those who read them as they have to us who have compiled them. We regret, fellow alumni of years previous to 1932, that lack of space does not permit printing a complete list of the eleven hundred and fifty graduates of the Indian- apolis College of Pharmacy since its beginning in 1904.
