To be a physician is indeed a noble and satis- fying profession. It is a profession of dedication. But how much nobler and more satisfying and how much more dedication is rec uired to be a maker of physi- sians? To be responsible for the education of those into whose hands are entrusted the very lives of their fellow men is indeed a Divine privilege. Dr. Angus Gordon Cathie is truly a maker of physicians — Osteopathic Physicians. He has dedi- cated the last 2 ' i years of his life to the education of Osteopathic Students and to the promulgation of the Osteopathic Concept with never any thought of per- sonal gain or financial success. When the Class of I960 first began its pro- fessional education at P. C. O., we respected Dr. Cathie out of pure fear. As time progressed we came to know him and our respect grew — not out of fear but out of admiration for his vast knowledge and enormous capabilities. To our Class Dr. Cathie was more than a physician and a teacher. He was our friend. In spite of his many projects and activities, he was never too busy to give us that extra lecture or to discuss our problems or to treat us when we were ill. As Commencement approaches we are sad- dened by the fact that there will be no more Anatomy lectures, no more chalk talks, no more conversations over coffee at the drug store, but regardless of these things Dr. Cathie will never be forgotten by the Class of 1960. To you, Dr. Cathie, we humbly dedicate this book in the hope that it will be a tangible expression of our sincere gratitude and appreciation. .v.i ck; C . 1
