Charles W. Stark l Baltimore, Md. Fordham B. S. Beta Rho Mercy Hospital, Baltimore Ah, Iago, the futility of it all. To have to reduce the elusive Dr. Stark to the dull black and White ldid someone say Black and White? l of the printed Word! The epitome of jaunti- ness and insouciance, Charlie possessed a nonchalance that was the envy of cigarette man- ufacturers, and a consummate disregard for pedagogical ap- pointments that proved to be a source of Wonderment to pro- fessors ancl students alike.

A fe Metropolitan Hospital Aggressive of nature, Sincere in purpose, practical in what- ever he undertakes characterize him as one of the most forceful individuals in the class. Always ready' to participate in fun, Matt is just as quick to supply some las witness his ear-twitching on some unsuspecting individual in the back-rows during lecturesl. The even tenor of his ways is never disturbed, his nonchal- ance in inviting heads of depart- ments to games of rummy while on their services being some- thing to marvel at. But combined with this eguanimity, is an active and .fertile mind which takes to study as a Wilson takes to Rus- sell-Traction. l-lis daily repartees with Pappalardi on ris medic- inal are memorable for the wealth of material they show at his command. I-lis well-deserved popularity will not cease with his departure but will continue among his patients as well as his professional brothers. One hundered thirty-eight Mario C. Taddeo New York City.
