The future of Osteopathy? I don ' t know, there are too many variables; but from what I can see across this country, it looks good. Osteopathy, if it chooses, can go far. The pos- sibilities are vast, and we have bare- ly scraped the surface. SPENCER G. BRADFORD, D.O. Dedication Success is not having, but rather being and doing — I sup- pose that is not original, but it is true none the less. No-one could better understand that, than the speaker of these words. Dr. Spencer Bradford. After a pre-medical training at Temple Univ., with a tradition of Osteopathic Physicians in his family since 1911, a natural interest in the sciences and the encouragement of an under- standing father. Dr. Bradford matriculated at POO in 1938. After the first week, I was ready the join the foreign legion, he said, I had no intention of teaching after graduation; I guess I wasn ' t farsighted.

The most important thing is to have some convictions and to follow them, I think that is what everyone is looking for anyway. City Line? I think it will come into being. Too much has been done by too many people to doubt it. Recruited in 1942, first as a student health physician, then as an instructor in Osteopathic manipulative therapeutics, Dr. Bradford decided to head for a spe- cialty in E.N.T. In 1944 he was asked to join the Physiology Dept. It was a tough choice giving up a specialty, but I decided to give it a try. Dr. Bradford enjoys teaching, he says it is probably the biggest single thing in his life, apart from his family. If you see one face light up with understand- ing, it ' s worth beating your brains out. Yet he has multiple outside interests; he works in four districts for the Philadelphia council of Boy Scouts, is a member of Lions International, has taught Sunday school for ten years, enjoys hobbies — switching from summer archery and fishing to winter folk and choral singing ( I belong to a small choral group who tolerate me because my wife has a beautiful soprano voice ); he is conversant in Anthropology, Archeology and History. Dr. Bradford ' s hopes for the Physiology department is one in which he can give the students the best clinical and theoretic training; one which can conduct signifi- cant research (especially Osteopathic research), and one which can serve as an advisory and educative func- tion for the profession as a whole.
