Physiology was, for most of us, the first real exposure to a science of apparent precision and logic. Parenthetically, it was also The first exposure for many of us to the land beyond the Applachians. We were psyched out by The Principles of Fick, Curves of Starling, and Laws of Dalton, and by such goings on as Dr. Nolasko sticking microelectrodes into tiny hunks of meat. Even The precise reproduction of a certain diagram of the sequence of cardiovascular events proved to be a hang-up for some of The Troops. However nonsensical as much of this seemed to be, reflec- tion from a safe vantage point somewhere above GB might reveal that perhaps there was some useful relationship be- tween a dipole and a left bundle branch block onthe EKG, be- tween an FEV1 and the three pack a day man, or between the enterogastric reflex and a Bilroth I in The GI bleeder. Could observing accurately, reflecting soberly, deducing logically, testing conclusively, and following up assiduously actually fit in there someplace between the chief complaint and the Discharge Summary? And as far as the literature goes, can any basic science division match up against such clinical pearls as the probability of finding a toolbox fcomplete with toolsj and a lightbulb lwith a blue dotl in the rectum? CYearbook Series of Physiology l966J. One can always criticize, and rightfully so, the lack of correlation of the material with X-rays, fluoroscopy, clinical laboratory procedures, or lGod-forbidll a real patient. The fact remains that most of the material the Physiology Depart- ment presented to us can now be applied to our own patients, even though this fact was then cleverly camouflaged under laws, curves and principles. ..,. rm-A Ti Yf,, ,Elie ,i,, .ei - Mif 2e-7l7f'.ii- gCiiii'n i' DAVID OPDYKE, Ph.D., CHAIRMAN Seated L. to R.
