Christian Hospital, St. Louis Vaguely there comes to mind the Biblical dictum that the meek shall inherit the earth . Were people like Murray in exis- tence then? Truly, one of the most curious paradoxes of our class was the sight of this stu- dent, silent and unobtrusive, While others talked. Silence is golden - but more valuable were his timely and pertinent helpful interjections to settle an enthusiastic argument. l-le is a loyal friend, a foe of gossip, an intelligent student. I-lis many fine qualities sadden us With the realization of our impotence to describe more vividly the pro- found beneficent influence he exerts upon all he contacts. Medical students are sceptical and cynical, hardly inclined to emote, yet Murray Be makes one feel cheap and unclean in com- parison - despite one's fairly decent reputation. l-lis mere presence fills one with confi- dence so essential in the quest for success. , One hundred twenty-two Maurice J.

Samaritan Hospital, Troy It is a very special privilege to be accorded the opportunity to eulogize, even briefly, the per- sonable Dr. Prisco. Very spe- cial since it was F ate, the cast of a die, or maybe just the Boss, that saw to it that F rank was to wield his tongue and scalpel at the Writer's bench in Anatomy laboratory. Having ascertained, through that inevitable grape- vine system of all freshman classes, that this gentleman al- ready had done some carcass- carving at Cornell, yours truly expected easy going. His streamlined dissections and dis- sertations thereof proved to be both a delight and an aid. We will remember Frank for his everpresent hand-Written notesy his extremely retentive memoryy his photographic mind - essentially negative y and his backslapping geniality.

Herman Reinstein From the wilds of that place they call Brooklyn, came Rein- stein. But far from being un- civilized, Hy has distinguished himself from all others. Pos- sessed of a very forceful char- acter, he has great persuasive powers and could probably sell gold bricks. This fact stands him in good stead, for he inspires confidence, a most necessary part of a doctor. Hy is one of the cleverest students in the classy hard working, energetic and ambitious. He has the quality of leadership, and knows how to manage people. He is quite an athlete. At the Thanksgiving football games he scored the most touchdowns. Hy was a member of the close corporation of Rubin, Reinstein, Shiner and Sherwood, and he held pre- ferred stock. Hy leaves us on his way to success, and we are sure he will attain it.
