tIie qood SAIVIARITAN Once upon a time, on a City Line road near the outskirts of a large nondescript city, a merciiant of modest means and middle age was set upon by a gang of thugs who systematically throttled him. When they had finished, they emptied his pockets, removed his watch, snatched his dentures, removed his trousers and, in parting, nudged him firmly in his lower parts with their sequined platforms. They con- verted him, in short, into a subject for medical interest: a patient. A short time later, along the same City Line road, there happened a young post-adolescent, on his way to a conference of his peers on an obtuse subject. He paused briefly at the patient ' s side and queried. What the hell do you think you are doing, lying about like that? The trampled fellow muttered (without dentures) a few in- coherent words about a poorly defined infrapubic discomfort, but to remember the exact time or ;ertain whether anything made thought, the young student :wit. ig upstart happened by, pre- ! learned conclave.

In the Autumn of 1971, at the beginning of their professional train- ing at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, the class of 1975 was faced with a dilemma. We needed a class chairman, some- one who would be our representative in affairs dealing with the administration. We were presented with a list of names and a group of faces. From these we were to choose our representative. The winner of the vote was a dark horse , a write-in candidate — Jon J. O ' Brien, S.J.,LL.B..S.T.D. Even though Jon O ' Brien was older than many members of the class and even though he had more education than many of us, he was not accepted as an alien from another generation. Rather, we accepted him as he was — one of us struggling to earn a D.O. after our names. We found, at the end of four years, that our decision to elect Jon our representative had been a wise one indeed. In the midst of many divergent opinions stood Jon — diplomat and peacemaker, a con- stant source of good counsel. This rock proved to be the foundation which enabled us to complete our four years at PCOM with a rel- atively untarnished record. We wish to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Jon for his hard work in keeping both the class and the administration at peace with one another. L K
