THE JAYHAWK Page 27 Caduceus the Hard Way Parody on the Song Dearie- Yvomen Hoe a I-Iarcl Row, But Can Make It AVERS MARY CATHERINE COLGLAZIER, M.D. When I was ushered into the doctor's office in the Hixon Laboratory Building at the University of Kansas Medical Center, I was immediately captivated by the radiating charms of the bright eyed, sandy-haired Dr. Mary Catherine Colglazier. The interview which ensued during that hour and a half will be remembered by me for quite some time. At present, Dr. Colglazier, a former junior College student, is actively engaged in the heart research activities now in progress at the K.U. Medical Center. These heart research proj- ects are supported by annual grants from the American Heart Association, the Agnes Lee Haskell Memorial fund, and the general fund of the K.U. Medical Center. Investigations are being conducted by Dr. Colglazier concerning the re- lationship of mineral metabolism to vasospastic phenomena. We feel that a deficiency of certain minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus, and po- tassium, has a definite effect upon the cardio-vascular system. Vasa- spasm, an expansion and constriction of blood vessels, is often associated with conditions of high blood pres- sure, coronary artery insufficiency, and peripheral blood disorders, Dr. Colglazier pointed out. Our general plan of investigation includes a study of the effects of va- rious mineral deficiency states upon the coronary and peripheral circula- tion in the experimental animal, the dog, and a study of patients with sus- pected mineral deficiency states, continued Dr. Colglazier. By means of an optically recording bubble flow meter, the rate of blood flow through an artery of the experimental ani- mal can be accurately determined. Then, this rate of flow is compared with that obtained after the animal has been rendered deficient in a cer- tain mineral. According to Dr. Col- glazier, this building up and deple- tion of a mineral can be done re- peatedly in a dog by deprivation diets. All patients under clinical ob- servation maintain a constant diet: that is, all food intake is weighed. After the elapse of a short period of time, the absorption and excretion of the various minerals are checked, and this data is further correlated with the patient's state of health. After completing her study of the es- sential minerals, Dr. Colglazier plans to continue her research on the trace elements Cthose present in the body only in minute amountsj which heretofore have been practi- cally ignored by research scientists. Dr. Colglazier graduated from Junior College in 1939 and majored in' bacteriology at the University of Kansas. After graduating from med- wvvvvvvv ical school in 1945, Dr. Colglazier in- terned at the State of Wisconsin General Hospital. She completed her formal residency work in internal medicine and research in Kansas City last July. While at Lawrence, Dr. Colglazier received the Phi Sigma award for the most outstanding re- search work. She is also a member of the Sigma Xi, an honorary so- ciety for scientific research. Inevitably, Mary Catherine Col- glazier acquired the title M.D., for many physicians stem from her fam- ily tree. Her grandfather was a country doctor in western Kansas, and her father practiced in Kansas City, Missouri. Her mother also at- tended junior College and' later ob- tained a degree in biological sciences from Kansas City University. At the present time Mrs. Colglazier is do- ing technician's training at the Gen- eral Hospital. Foremost in the mind of Dr. Col- glazier is the friendly atmosphere which prevailed at Junior College. Likewise, she pleasureably recalls her activities with the German Club and the orchestra, where she performed as a violinist. Even today, music remains her number one hobby. While in grade school, this young doctor's only desire was to enter the field of medical research. After the medical school 'bug' bit me, I yearned to work with the patient and do general practicing with research as an avocation, stated Dr. Col- glazier. I am quite interested in the field of psychosomatic medicine, which is really a branch of internal medicine. When the idea of spe- cialization was mentioned, the doctor replied, There is a need for knowl- edge of both general practicing and specialization, but I think cutting a patient up into his eyes, ears, heart, or liver should be avoided since this loses sight of the patient's condition as a whole. I believe that the me- dium between general practicing and specialization is the ideal, she said. Doubtlessly, Dr. Colglazier will continue to stand shoulder to shoul- der and toe to toe with her male competitors. With more women of Dearie, do you remember When we cheered for our football tearn?
