Erb, stresses the chemistry of the metabolic processes of the body not only under normal conditions, but especially in regard to the changes occurring during disease. Professor Kenneth Senior glances over his notes for the coming lecture and Mr. Floyd Kefford looks on as Professor Erb checks with Mr. Sherman, the laboratory assistant, as to the equipment needed for the day ' s experiment in the . . . 14 ■■ - —

Colson Blakeslee, Richard Borman and Wesley Boudette carry our an experiment on frog muscle and record the results on a kymograph, as Constance Bimler, the fourth member of the group watches Salvatore Aquilla, Bernard Berry, and William Beirn set up a similar experiment at the next table. In the meantime Albert Bonier records the results of the last experiment. In order to understand physiological function, a parallel knowledge of . . . 13 •IM.M

. . . CHEMISTRY LABORATORY. Clinical analyses of tissue, milk, blood, urine, feces, and gastric con- tents are practical phases ol this course. Grouped around the bench doing routine analytical procedures Milton Carr, Rodney Chase, Bernard Cohen, Robert Delaplaine, David Collier, Seymour Cohen, Martin Farber, Hubert Brown, Lillian Brose and Hilton Cutler learn to evaluate properly the uses and limitations of modern clinical laboratory methods. The chemistry of the living organism is dependent on the underlying structure, the microscopic aspects of which are studied in . . . 13
