dedication The physician as we would know him is a man of many facets. Each in his own mind hohls those quaHties which are believed to exemplify the professional man. Some hold that to be a successful physician one must be well versed in nii-di- cine, display cool logic and exceptional diagnostic acumen. Others feel that to be an eternal student, ever searching for new ideas and methods is the key to greatness. It may be that a great deal of compensation in medicine comes from being a dedicated teacher, and seeing those whom you have helped to mold go off into the field of practice. In addition, many are sure that the mark of a fine physician is his inter-relationships with his fellow man and his actions as a gentleman. Who is to determine which of these qualities is most im- portant, and for which we will strive? This is a debatable point. There is, however, one point clear — that is that Dr. Edwin Cressman, to whom we dedicate this book, represents the highest example of all those qualities we have mentioned. He is a teacher, scholar, physician, and above all a gentleman in the highest sense of the word. Our encounter, however brief, has enriched our stay at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy, and set an example that we may well follow in the years to come. It is fitting for a man who has spent a great part of his time teaching, to be honored by his students. We your students. Dr. Cressman, have learned our lesson well, and to you we dedicate this 1961 Synapsis. Dr. Edwin Cressman

RECOGNITION GERALD SCHARF, D.O Four short years ago we encountered a cherubic, energetic resident who undertook the presentation of the fiehl of Internal Medicine. A fter the briefest of introductions be proceeded to teach us about the simplicities of cardiac catheterization. So it was with our first meeting with Dr. Gerald Scharf, and so it has continued to be during our four years of medical education. Dr. Scharf has endeavored to teach two things: clinical medicine and sound reasoning. In these endeavors he has become, to the Class of 1961, an example of what could be. Our meetings have been in the form of for- mal lectures, substitution for the missing teach- ers, and informal forays in hallways, in the library, or on the sidewalk. But no matter where the session has been we stop, listen and take note, for it is impossible to say that Dr. Scharf lectured without teaching us something new. Whether it be the simple or the esoteric, the teaching point is made and impressed on our minds. Because of his untiring efforts in our be- half, we offer recognition to Dr. Gerald Scharf. As physicians at the gateway, we are caught up in the whirl of the Senior year, state board examinations, internships, and a hundred other problems. We the Class of 1961 would like to pause a moment and say, however uneloquently, but always sincerely: Thanks Gerry . . . for everything.
