Northeastern Hospital Philadelphia, Pa. Moderation was the word the Greeks used to express their concept of the philosophy of life. To them, all was Well, provided there was no excess of good or bad. Bill's only fault was his lack of moderation. Conscienti- ous to a fault, he saw no alterna- tive to the exhausting study of his medical career. Now at the close of his school days, we may stop to Wonder whether he had the correct idea. Willingly we acknowledge that he was right. An excellent student, he is still social-minded and friendly. A life guard during the summer, and frequent swims during the Winter have built up his fine physique. A so-called glutton for punishment, and the ability to profit thereby, Bill will achieve an enviable reputation both as a physician and a gentleman. Good luck, Bill. Eighty-six William S.

John G. Garbarini V Woodside, L. I. Fordham A.B. Alpha Sigma. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. . V ,I M' ,L , 2 Binghamton City Hospital Who feeds himself with his alms feeds three, Himself, his hungering neighbor and Me. This dark-eyed son of Ford- ham for four years has plod the sometimes dreary, sometimes happy road of the embryonic medico. His freshman and soph- omore years were spent in dili- gently acquiring that rare talent for studying Without Worrying. His Iunior and Senior years were the foundations of an ever- growingknowledge of medicine. We shall always recall with delight his uncanny ability to quote, almost verbatim, Gray's Anatomy, and by so doing as- tound his professors. Nor shall We soon forget his ready willing- ness to aid any of his fellow stu- dents When they called upon him. His infectious gaiety together with his unruly hair only serve to emphasize those traits of character which will carry him on to success in his chosen pro- fession. Eighty-five

Long Island City. Columbia A.B. Eric G. Cesell Not silent Was, but silent seemed to be. The old adage about still waters will never be more aptly exemplified than by this Teu- tonic son of Columbia Univers- ity. lt is now a matter of record that for the first two years of college, Eric was known merely as another member of the class of l937. At the start of the junior year, however, his mag- netic personality - apparently suppressed for two years-blos- somed forth for all to behold. Those who know him well have found to their delighted surprise that here indeed is a friend in whom a trust is well-placed. Never shirking any duty no matter how burdensome, and often assuming the burdens of others, Eric has well begun a career which may see him guiding the destinies of one of our renowned metropolitan hos- pitals.
