Gaetano A. Mascara New York City, N. Y. U., B. S Delta Sigma Theta. Fleur-o-scope 4. t St. Iohn's Hospital, Long lsland City Thought-provoking questions are a sign of intelligence. Woe to the reputation of medical students were their l. Q.'s so judged! An all-too-amusing and disquieting sight is the apparent indifference of our students to question, so as to clarify and define. Anthony, however, has never permitted the false artifici- ality inherent in this attitude to prevent his learning the exact meaning of statements made by our clinicians, who occasionally leave entirely too much to the imagination. Tenacity, intelli- gence, and intellectual integrity are his characteristics and there is nothing but esteem and re- spect for this student's sincerity and successfulness in really learning Medicine. His key- notes, minus seriousness and sincerity, were tenaciously ad- hered to throughout four years of school and clinical work. Good luck, Tony, We are sure you will be an asset to the pro- fession and will achieve success. One hundred nine

He talked on forever, and you wished him to talk on forever. Bill is one of those rare fellows who is a friend of all. Reared amid the hospitable atmosphere of one of our smaller cities, he has found it difficult to under- stand why this metropolis treats its residents as cogs in a machine rather than human beings. l-le frowns but rarely, and then for either of two reasons: he is attempting to work out some mathematical problem or is engrossed in study for some examination. More frequently he is smiling or in the throes of laughter. l-lis vocation is Medicine but his avocation is teaching. This latter will consume what little spare time he will have in the early years of his pactise. Go to it, Bill! Your reputation won't be limited to Albany. St. Peter's Hospital, Albany, N. Y.

Newark Memorial Hospital A resident of the western shores of the Hudson, F rank has nevertheless displayed a cosmo- politan demeanor worthy of the most sophisticated of New York- ers. Debonair and amusing, one would hardly visualize him as one of our most ambitious and studious classmates. Yet, almost four years of close association with him have convinced us that he will permit nothing to stand in the way of his success as a physician. l-le knows he has the ability to succeed-he now awaits the practical applicability of this knowledge. Future recollections of his amusing and entertaining con- versations will bring reminiscent sighs oi regret. I-lis closer associ- ates will find such memories more mellow. Too, there will be the realization that the only road to success is that which is built upon intelligent thinking, and smoothed over by the perspira- tion of honest labor. One hundred ten Franklin J.
