And nature compromised 'twixt cx good fellow and cr recluse. Lest one should fail to recog- nize the result of an admixture of a good fellow and a recluse, let us hasten to say that Don comprises the abilities of a leader, a humorist and a scholar. His lot has not been that of a son of wealth. Rather has he had to strive, seemingly without end, to fulfill his ambition to follow in his father's footsteps. Don is one of those rare chaps who never sees aught but good in the world. His duties are ex- ecuted in a remarkably jovial spirit and with finesse. . No single community has the enviable right to call him its own, although Brown University, Somerville, N. I., and Mamoron- eck, N. Y. have primary claim. Perhaps it is his love of travel which has endowed in him a personality long to be remem- bered by his fellow students. Rhode Island . Homeopathic Hospital Seventy-six Mamaroneck, N. Y. Brown Ph.B.

Long Beach, California. Southern California. Alpha Sigma. Class Treasurer l, 2. John H. Crump We all laughed at his jokes for many cz joke had he. As a true son of California and an aggressive exponent of its renowned sunshine, Iohn came to us four years ago to begin his professional studies. He quickly established an enviable reputa- tion for himself both scholastic- ally and socially. A profound in- terest in anatomy, the basis of all surgery, marked out to his classmates his future specialty. He is unusually adept with the scalpel, but mechanical ability is delicately blended with a knowledge of physiology, so that each serves, rather than rules, the other. His capabilities are not excep- tional to his family, for his for- bears, both near and far, have long been waging a relentless war against disease. And so it is that another Dr. Crump goes forth to establish himself before the world. Flower Hospital Seventy-five

Benedict B. De Phillips t Newark, N. I. Columbia A.B. l St. Elizabeth Hospital l-lis freshman year began with a long and weary daily trek from Newark to New York, and later was followed by a perman- ent residence in this city. Through all these hardships Ben resolutely adhered to a single policy: in order to know a sub- ject, no detail of that subject could be overlooked. That meant work, but not discouragementy for that small physique of his hid a heart of overwhelming cour- age and intensity. And so through the years we were priv- ileged to witness the struggle for knowledge, and the triumph of this little gentleman over the barriers set before the modern medical student. Too, the sight of Little Bennie and Big F rank was an amusing specta- cle-but the friendship of the two was permanent and enduring. Their partnership was ideal: so too, was the friendship of all whom Ben contacted. Seventy seven
