Such things as these are lost to us. . We are Submerged in study. . . Pleasure lies so far Afield. . . What waits us on the trail of years? We are a strangely maddcned sort of breed. . . Of our own choice, the fullest years of youth, The fleeting years, we fling aside to heed An inner call for knowledge and for truth. . . A fair exchange with life . . the wholesome breadth Of youth for this-the chance to conquer death.

D. OR twenty-five years his eyes have been directed toward the future while his hand and mind have dealt with the present and his heart has opened to his boys For twenty-five years he has carried the College on the crest of his fame and he has been the dynamic factor in every advance it has made. For twenty-five years he has sent his students into practice with a confidence born of his teaching. His name and that of the College are synonymous. Where Gynecology and Ob- stetrics arc practiced his name is a byword. His surgical skill is tradition and his teach- ing is the model for thousands who are emulating him. '31 graduates from the Long Island College of Medicine. Whatever the future holds for the new institution, the graduates of the old are aware of the fact that John Osborn Polak has been its supreme chief as he becomes the leader of the new college. The Long Island College of Medicine is the least of the monuments erected to him. There have been thousands of teachers, surgeons, men to whom monuments have been raised but there has been only one Polak. No monument will ever be raised to that indefineable essence which has made him what he is. No marble column can ever house the intrinsic beauty that his boys would demand for him. His greatest reward lies in an intangibility as his greatest virtues are intangible. And that. reward is the love his boys have for him.

The Niglvfingale Disciples Daily Pass Tbese Doors I 19 1 Book Une Q Administration V i LONG ISLAND COLLEGE OF MEDICINE BROOKLYN, NEW Yomt Office of the President January 9, 1931 To tbr- Sludenfs of the Long Island College of Medicine The circumstances under which I write my message to the students for this year are entirely different from those under which I addressed my letter one year ago. During this brief space of time momentous and epoch making changes have taken place. On the twentieth of June last the Board of Trustees of the newly incorporated Long Island College of Medicine held its first official meeting. At that time the Long Island College Hospital Medical School was transferred to a new institution designated the Long Island College of Medicine. Hence we are taking part in the first year of the new institution, although virtually it is seventy-two years old. The students of the college have not at the present moment recognized any extraordinary change in the institution of which they are members. It is true that you are witnessing the erection of a new laboratory building, the money for which was provided by one of your re- spected professors, as a much needed addition to the equipment of the hospital as well as the Long Island College of Medicine. Because of these changes there is in prospect close association with the most important hospitals in Brooklyn which will be added to the clinical facilities of the institution for the students as well as for the aid and help of the other hospitals concerned. I can therefore state that because of these circumstances which are unique and are most important as bearing upon the welfare of the institution, you are to be congra- tulated, especially as the college with which you are connected has such high standing in the field of medical education. All of this means that the students should show their appreciation of these momentous changes by giving themselves most fully to the study in preparation for their career in the field of medicine, but also with a spirit of consecration which is always called for on the part of those who are looking forward to being physicians in care of the sick. May I express my best wishes for a successful year for those who are now members and students in the Long Island College of Medicine? Very sincerely yours fSignedj JAMES C. EGBERT President F211 Renaissance HE affairs of The Long Island College Hospital took a turn in June, 1930, which holds a peculiar interest for all of us. It holds an interest for the student because he tviH receive the beneht of the uptvard trend, and it holds an interest for the teacher because he realizes that his efforts will yield better results. The medical school exists for the students, and improvements in the school give additional advan- tages to those who study. The old medical school with a history of more than seventy years as a part of The Long Island College Hospital became, in June, a separate and independent institution -The Long Island College of Medicine. In order to carry over the educational work from the old to the new, the students and teaching staff became, without intermission, parts of the nevv organizadon. In Ins address at the fornud opening of the school year on September 30, President Egbert set forth his hopes and aspirations. He ex- pressed the conviction that the new school is destined for broader service through its contemplated affiliation with a number of hospitals. Multiple hospital afhliation, prop- erly established, will bring the student into contact with a greater variety of material and more teachers with wide clinical experience. Concomitant with the establishment of the new school a new science laboratory was erected by The Long Island College Hospital. You have all seen it rising on Paciic Street, next to the Iioagland lbaboratory. IIntH such tinne as the nevv school is able to build its own structures, it will have, through arrangements with The Long Island College Hospital, the advantages of the science laboratory in which Bacteriol- ogy, Pathology, Pharmacology and Physiology will be taught under splendid condi- tions. Too long have the students worked under serious handicaps in some of their preclinical subjects. They are surely entitled to the better facilities now available. Let us aH do honor to the rnan vvhose deep interestin both the hospiud and the school and whose generosity made this science laboratory a reality-Dr. john Osborn Polak. It has been said that medicine is a combination of art and science. The art of medicine, that which deals with human contacts, the realization that patients are beings with human attributes, members of families and of society, is too little con- sidered in our educational system. The science of medicine has advanced with great stridesg the art of medicine has not kept pace. It will be a part of the policy of the Long Island College of Medicine to emphasize in its teaching the personal contacts and influence, to bring the student to see and appreciate the social elements in his future work as a physician, and to do this without sacrificing in any measure the scientific training that constitutes the foundation of his practical experience. In aH thu the student hnnsdf can hehm Iie can approach ins work with the right attitude, he can learn to appreciate the responsibilities inherent in the practice of medicine, he can acquire methods and habits of study as an undergraduate that will carry over into his future and make him a student still of human nature, of social ills and their concomitants, as well as of disease and its manifestations. Often the best part of your work will have nothing to do with potions and powders, but with the exercise of an influence of the strong upon the weak, of the righteous upon the wicked, the wise upon the foolish. To you, as the trusted family counsellor, the father will come with his anxieties, the mother with her hidden griefs, the daughter with her trials, and the son with his follies. Fully one-third of the work you do will be entered in other books than yours. Courage and cheerfulness will not only carry you over the rough places of life, but will enable you to br-iing comfort and help to the weak-hearted, and will console you in the sad hours when, like Uncle Toby, you have 'to whistle that you may not weep'.

He will find herein the impression made upon most of us by our classmates. Per- haps he will find these short biographies poor substitution for the actualities he knew. If in these writings there will be sufficient stimulus to that reader of the futureg if they can recall to him part of the happiness he experienced, part of the vicissitudes through which he journeyed, then ample gratincation will come to those who have given of their energies to the construction of this volume. The Lichonian of 1931 is presented with thc hope that the future will pass judgment upon it while the present obtains from its pages a transient pleasure. THE EDITOR E393 The Oath SWEAR by Apollo Physician, by Asclcpius, by Health, by I-Ieal-All, and by all the Gods and Goddesses making them witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture: To regard my teacher in this art as equal to my parentsg to make him partner in my livelihood, and when he is in need of money to share mine with him, to consider his offspring equal to my brothers, to teach them this art, if they require to learn it, without fee or indenture, and to impart precept, oral instruction, and all the other learning, to my sons, to the sons of my teacher, and disciples bound by covenant and oath according to the physicians, but to none other. The treatment I adopt shall be for the benefit of my patients, according to my ability and judgment, and not for their injury nor for any evil purpose. I will not give a deadly drug to anyone, though it be asked of me, no-r will I lead the way in such counsel, nor will I aid a woman to procure abortion. I will keep my life and my art pure and holy. Whatsoever house I enter, there will I go for the benefit of the sick, refraining from any act of seduction, whether of male or female, bond or free. What- soever I see or hear concerning the life of men, in my attendance on the sick or even apart therefrom, which ought not to be spoken of abroad I will keep silence thereon, counting the secrecy of such things to be sacred. While I continue to keep this oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art, respected by all men at all times, but should I trespass and violate this oth, may the reverse be my lot. T401 Class of 1931 ISTORY, as usually conceived, though it is written actually in the enacted deeds and accomplishments of the characters involved, is recorded, nevertheless, from a distance safe enough to place each event in proper perspective, to give it just that right shade of color, that correct fulness of tone which enables one to build therefrom an harmonious and well proportioned whole. Were this not so, History would be but a monotonous record of isolated events, each clamoring for undeserved recognition as being all-important when in reality it is but a minor phrase in the development of the vastly more important theme which is to characterize the era involved. Would that we, the Class of 1931, were at that aforementioned safe dis- tance so as to review calmly and fairly what we have accomplished in our four arduous years of an ardent search for knowledge. We have followed, as others before us, those well trodden paths to the shrines of such fearsome gods and lesser deities as Anatomy, Histology, Embryology, Physiology and Chemistry. These were exacting gods, but viewed in retrospect, extremely fair, demanding tribute and worship for which they in turn repaid in full with the building materials for a foundation worthy of the superstructure to be devoted to the Art of Medicine. Could we but glance into the future we would probably find that some of our worthy classmates, and who can prophesy who they are to be, will have chosen to permanently serve these gods in an attempt to add more knowledge for the strength- ening of that foundation upon which all else in the practice of medicine depends. Another year found us engrossed in the study of Pathology and Bacteriology. These brought us face to face with those morbid influences with which we have chosen to contend, influences which we learned have the power, if left unchecked, of destroy- ing the very foundation of normal function and structure. Here were examples of what had gone before in the history of disease, graphic illustrations of the nature of our adversaries and their destructive powers and processes. No general with an eye to world conquest ever studied enemy maneuvers more assiduously than the newly created Junior studied the symptoms of disease. We began to use our own wings, to ferret out, with our newly acquired knowledge of physical signs and symptoms, the presence, progress and course of actual diseases in actual patients. Here was power indeed. Each case seen in the clinics or on the wards was eagerly added to the one before, always with the view of building up a personal ex- perience in matters medical. Surgical clinics, dressings, mannikin work . . . all these served to lighten the burden of book study and to make us feel that we were actually I'-1-lj doing our bit toward the alleviation of suffering. And, this just in passing, who will ever forget those Saturday morning quizzes? Now, praise be to God and the Faculty, we are Seniors, mighty men to all appear- ances, apparently well versed in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, looked up to and envied by underclassmen, even as we looked up to and envied those before us, but inwardly, most of us cannot but realize the need for humility and a true awareness of our shortcomings. Heretofore ours has been a borrowed experience whereas now cle- volves upon us the task of building up our own personal experiences which must serve as the milestones toward whatever goal each of us will attain. Thus, in brief, we have skimmed over the impressions of our four school years. No attempt at a resume, however, could be complete without a word of thanks and appreciation to our ever obliging Leonard Williams who, as Class President, led us out of all our difficulties and smoothed away most, if not all, of our worries. Those de- lightful personal associations, those most interesting, humorous and human incidents with which our dealings with fellow students, teachers and patients were replete, and without which it would have been so easy for any of us to give way to pessimism, melancholy and discouragement, need not be repeated in this place. All will agree that they are indelibly imprinted upon our very souls as a constant source of pleasure and anecdote to be drawn from in future years of reminiscence. Our life as the Class of 1931 draws to a close. We emerge as the first class to graduate from the new Long Island College of Medicine. Wliat changes will take place, what new facilities will be created as a result of the new project are all still matters of conjecture, but whatever they may be, we shall always look back with pride to the old Long Island College Hospital School of Medicine as Alma Mater, our Fostering Mother who raised us nobly through our infancy in Medicine, MILTON K1uNsKY.

In one swift stroke we have destroyed, despoiled The last horizon. Now infinity Is there where once the sky, the dream ideal, Met earth, on which our feet are wont to tread. Four years have made us what we are. We were Idealists and dreamers and perhaps Within us, somewhere, something urged us to The dim, awaiting goal! We have attained And lost .... But pass among us, ask of us, Why have you done this? In great voice one Humanity awaits a healing hand, I go to battle death, to iind the way, To better, sweeter life. I know no self. But let me save one life and I have done The labor of a thousand lives. Perchance Another youth, In this, the ancient art My happiness, my sole contentment lies. 'I am no seeker after fortune, I Could know no peace, or quietude were I To enter in another different art. Thus these and others are who are as they. Uncertain of the future, insecure- Uncertain of the past, all unaware E441 speaks Of why or how this ending came to be. But I, ah love, I know why I am I. Wliy I am what I am this day at last. This is confession .... Let us cast aside The veils of masquerade. . For ugliness, A transient beauty was the remedy, And this was far beyond my hands, there was No way to gain it for you and I saw Your lips smile but your eyes were distant still. These years, these trials, this victory at last Are yours. I too have ruthlessly destroyed My last ideal. . Beyond infinity, Beyond the last faint gleam I strive to gain You are . . . I dare not hope that now when I Have come to what I so long sought to be You will surrender. . Know my love, I know That even in my hour of triumph there Is little to bring home to you. . But learn From this which you have done, have made me do, That nothing is and nothing can there be Wliicli will withstand me. What is there to halt My stride? There is no hand of man or God To hold me. . . Hear me, there high, high above, I am ascending closer to you, love. M. N51 1.5 JUAN ROBERTO Aoufwo, B.S. Caguzxr High School University of West Virginia The big oesophagitis man from Cuba specializing in the pronunciation of the name of the disease. Tremendously handicapped by his inability to thoroughly comprehend our language, Juan found a stormy sea before him. He is safely in harbor and we are as one in our congratulations. There was a time when someone remarked to Juan that about one half the population of Cuba was luetic and that the figure was conservative. Strangely, Juan agreed with the Hgure, remarking only that half the Cuban population was made of tourists who in all probability made up the luetic percentage. Besides a new pronunciation, the Doctor brought with him some Cuban cigarettes which we have been given to understand are smoked only by the med. students there. We need only remark that the students must be great, big, strong men. Returning to Cuba, Juan will carry many blessings, among them: Alec N. Thomson's lectures, a sound background in medical economics, and a treatise on ideal utilitarianism. fPronounced as writtenj. W'e hope he will be able to treat a cold with them. H61 73- f'-lj-U, i Louis AIBEL Boys' High School Columbia University Through four years of an endless, and sometimes wearisome, procession of facts and fancies, this curly haired half pint, the ever popular Lou, has succeeded in injecting into every scholastic activity the cheer of his infectious personality. His laugh, born of a deep seated sense of humor and a happy nature, tends to betray Lou when the gang assembles. No just biographer could attempt to inscribe the list of his good qualities, unless he had unlimited space in which to list them. Lou and Frank Ashpis have been together so much that only the difference in size enables the observer to distinguish them. Birds of a feather- Lou has constructed his well won wings. With the power that enabled him to build them he will employ his product in reaching the heights. There will be no sun to melt the tissues that are welded in his wings. His flight will be watched by those of us who have come to know him. On the sky, as he goes, he will write, Good Luck. . . See you soon.n i E471 PAUL ALTRUDA Eastern District High School Columbia University Oh, he lives down by de why-duck, right near de winegar woiks . . . arthritis and dia- termy are Paul's long suits. His stay here has taught him, beyond the usual routine training a man receives, the value of time. It was very early in his career that Paul learned the value of the hours that slip by so readily when the gang assembles and the coals are raked over .... And being rapid at the application of new concepts, off to Clinical Hall he went, there to engage in the favorite indoor sport of the class. There has been no free familiarity between Paul and any of his classmates. He has remained aloof without giving offense and by so doing he has acquired a wide acquaint- ance Without, even in a single instance, incurring animosity. It has proved to be a wise plan. Perhaps advice in the matter of friendship should originate from Paul. Onward to Where joints are stiff and diatermy will bring relief and fame and pros- perity.

E431 1 1 i i 'iff 'lffvz ' ' j FRANK ASHLEY Boys' High School Columbia University In the microcosm that is college we meet with numerous types of mankind and few among them present that rare combination, a quiet manner and a pleasing personality. To associate with Frank is to know that rarity. While intimacy with Frank has been limited to a privileged few, the class as a group will remember Frank for his phenomenal work in the class rooms. For him the texts presented none of the unsurmountable difficulties that most of us recall. His quiet calmness carried him to the mastery of study and the recognition accomplishment always secures. Frank was onc of those whose time belonged to fellow students when they demanded it. How often he has been found in some hidden corner driving home the more difficult phases to classmates less able than he. If in the world beyond Long Island there is room for an able scholar, a gentleman, and a friend Frank will ably fill the place. It will have to be a high and worthy one to attract him. E491 JUAN BASORA Mayaguez High School University of West Virginia One of the charter members of that sedate organization, The Spanish Club. One of those he-men who smokes that production of the devil, the Cuban cigarette. One of those old hidalgos who sips his Malaga and memorizes, at the same time, the course, relations, and what have you of the radial artery. The Basora twins, Ramon and Juan, have been of inestimable value to their compa- triots. They have pounded the language into them and forced into them the knowledge requisite to passing examinations., No men have been of more real value to the class. Juan has kept much to himself. Outside of his clubmates, few men know him. He has given himself to his studies and has left little time for anything outside of their sphere. Few of us can complain of this attitude. It is certainly the one which makes for successful completion of the medical course. Go South young man. H. Sheridan Baketel forgot to tell about medical practice among the fair senoritas, the string orchestras playing the Tango and the pleasures of Bacardi. H03 RAMON E. Bzxsolm, B.S.S.Ch. Mayaguez High School University of Porto Rico Gordon QI beg your pardonj, Dr. Gibson upped and congratulated Ramon on an examination paper he wrote, whereupon Ramon sat back and yawned a mighty yawn. Tearing off these stellar papers was something of a habit, and recognition of excellent work an anti-climax, because Ramon E. always knew he was good and needed no one to tell him so. This is not egoismg it is sound self-confidence and it has been a reliable servant for this man. Confidence is half the battle and the study of Medicine is, by no stretch of the imagination, a lark. You may play at medical practice but study is work, hard work, and there is no relaxation and sportsmanship does not enter. Ramon will agree with us. fNotc: Even if he doesn't we still hold to the statement.j The Spanish Club assembles at Ramon's bidding to receive advice and instruction. He hesitates at nothing. He lectures in any subject, from the fine arts through internal medicine and his disciples gape in wonder. '31 places Ramon high up in its ranks. Among the leaders from the first, he has held his place with an easy grace and with it the good wishes and admiration of the class. i511 HENRY A. BELAFSKY, A.B. Perth Amboy High School University of Pennsylvania Delta Sig-ma Theta. Every mosquito in New Jersey keeps its eye on Perth Amboy and anxiously awaits the return home of Hank. He is the most luscious morsel the famed jersey breed has had in a generation. The love of the mosquito may account for Henry's attendance at the U. of P. and Long Island. Hank's smile is like the rising sun. It comes up slowly, attains its brightest point just at the central time point and then fades away leaving a suggestion of itself. His whole face is lit with good nature and contentment and happiness. Hank should be content and happy. The smile and disposition and the M.D. are all Hank needs. The trio is irresistible. Hank should specialize in the treatment of the neuroses. Neurotic patients would find him Z1 splendid listener and nothing is so beneficial as a long session of history taking and the spilling of a whole ocean of sympathy. Hank will listen and write and work wonders with a smile, a few words of assurance and a placebo. i521 Louis E. BERNARD, M.D. Why should a mere Professor of Medicine be so unreasonable that he expects a student of psychiatry to know what glycosuria and hyperglycemia are? Why, we beg of you, should a baseball coach be acquainted with the insane tides of the blood stream? And in company with a million more questions of like nature, ift is our privilege to present the learned Doctor who has been with us through only a quarter of our education. This business of breaking up a Senior Class into minute sections has deprived many men and two women of the Doctor's company. This has been a definilte loss to them as will be adequately attested by those who have been in touch with him. Fortunately the chosen few have become ardent disciples and through them the lore will be transmitted. Louis has had one tremendous virtue. He has been uninfluenced by his associates here. He goes as he came, a psychiatrist and baseball coach, and a man with a bit more of the taste of life than most of us. E531 Moiuus BIRNBAUM, B.S. DeW'itt Clinton High School New York University Nature lavishes on each of us some different gift. To Morris she gave a shell into which he took himself four years ago and from which he has rarely made an exit. Into his solitary dwelling few have been invited but from the favored few we learn that Morris is well worth knowing. Morris is going to be a general practitioner. I-Ie will be one of those men who are never heard-ofg one of that group known to a circle of patients and beyond that circle unknown. He will be one of those who carry the full burden of practice on their shoulders. Patients will come to love him and will place an iniinity of confidence in his judgment. His errors will be few. His success will be unclimmecl. He will never contribute anything to medical progress because his time will be consumed in actively rendering assistance to those in need of it. Because we are certain of our prognosis we are already proud of him. He must realize that he is admired by his classmates for his reliability, his intellect and his will to accomplish the small task that he has set for himself. E543 Isnooma BoBRow11'z DeWitt Clinton High School Columbia University Horace, our expert in the classics informs us, made it clear that a good man is always happy. Accepting the hypothesis of Horace one concludes that Bob is good, for there is no other way of explaining the happy congregations which form about him while he points out the newest methods of dodging the faculty's marksmen. That he is good we know without further explanations. Four years of companionship have made that all too clear. Even in his capacity as one of the topnotchers academic- ally, he held to the axiom that a happy smile goes further than a groan. just around the corner success is awaiting Bob. Most of us want to be on the scene when he attains it because most of us know what a battle he has had of it. We want to be present to see how a gracious conqueror accepts a well earned victory. Bob will not gloat over success. He will look on it as the first rung of a ladder whose topmost bars are singing to the stars about the man who is ascending. i553 . ---J 1 Jossm-1 BOCCHINI Central High School Fordham University Theta Kappa Psi. A freshman editor remarked that from observing joe one would think he was at law school. Joe's easy-going manner made this conclusion all too obvious. And from that year right on to the end, Joe never altered his manner. It has kept him going, in contact with all his work, missing nothing and finishing as he began, with a minimum of friction and a maximum of efliciency. Nothing has caused him apprehension and nothing has caused annoyance. He has tolerated everything with an invisible sympathetic reaction. Bad breaks came, had their effect, and Went unnoticed. A prayer of thanks was his answer to the good turn that on rare occasions made its presence felt. Outside of the medical knowledge it was forced to give him, the College has had little influence on him. He has sought culture, companionship and light outside of its walls. New Jersey with her total lack of medical colleges will welcome this native son who will bring a strong armamentarium with him into the field of practice as his home state offers it. l56l KIOHN PETER BURGHARD1' Boys' High School Columbia University A gentleman dressed in a correct, blue business suit slinks quietly up the first three flxhrs of stairs in Polhcmus.

His own inimitable manner in rendering the short story is essential to the enjoyment of the anecdotes, of which he has a consider- able store. Ben is another of that school that carefully selects its friends. As a result, Ben has a limited group about him and remains, for the most part, something of a mystery to the majority of '31. This is one of the things we will forever hold against our train- ingg the limitation it forced upon us in the sphere of formation of friendship. It was not until the Senior Year that we began to call each other by our first names. Before that time we were rivals and the fittest survived. Even with the transient character of our meetings with him we have felt the inherent value of his personality and the class extends its good Wishes to him. i591 josiapi-1 IVERSON BUTLER, A.B. Manual Training High School Saint Francis College Alpha Kappa Kappa. Happy days boy! Can't tell the cows without a score card! Wlio's fat? Thus from the first minute in anatomy to the last Saturday quiz in medicine Joe managed to disguise palpitation with a smile and a well turned jest. Endowed with a wealth of adiposity, a happy spirit and an overcoat to hide his cigarettes, joe rode through four years without the loss of a pound, a smile, or a butt. Joe and Nick -were '31's Amos 'n Andy with the reservation that they were far more effective than the originals. Despite concentration on the all important work at hand Joe managed to find time here and there for a few words of cheer that made life worth living. So long, Fat Boy, and thanks for a million laughs that swept away the black clouds that were ever present on the horizon. So long! There are awaiting you the thankful- ness and gratitude of patients whose clouds will rapidly disperse before the cheery smile and happy words which so readily come to your lips .... And ultimately Joe, in the last minute analysis, what therapeutic measure is of more value than one which gives confidence, happiness, and fresh strength? i601 .df MAUIKICE CO1-IEN DeWitt Clinton High School Columbia University This is a poor representation of the loquacious Murray whose glib tongue combines into one mass of humor many words and much pertinent thought. His humor is of the type that carries with it a philosophical tinge that indicates background which might be called pathos. Give him the floor and sit back and listen. As his theme develops you wonder how you have overlooked the penetrating mind that is fashioning his speech. You wonder while you laugh and when the laughter is ended the core of his thought bursts upon you. Perhaps this is something Murray never knew about himself. It may be that he never considered that some of his classmates were taking him seriously. Guts , as Dr, Barber might put it, is a good Anglo-Saxon word. Unfortunately it is not conventionally used. Witli sincere apologies to those conventions which force editors to control their pens and emotions, we remark that Murray has more guts, more courage, more fight than any man we have encountered in years. And if that combina- tion doesn't carry him to the top then fifty million Frenchmen must be wrong. i611 THEODORE DAVID COHEN, B.S. Manual Training High School New York University Aifectionately, Porky . . . Porky's laugh is much as he is-mountainous. When the very walls of Clinical Hall reverberateg when pedestrians on Henry Street wonder at the riot of sound escaping from Polhemusg look for Porky. His laughter is a reflection of the innate good nature with which he is gifted, and the giver of largesse was remarkably perspicuous in so bequeathing a store of jollityg for Porky is fraternal and half of his is yours for the asking. The heart and lungs are his special field. just why he goes so far afield we do not know. This is the type of man babies cry for and a whole nursery brightens up when his frame, for a moment, darkens the doorway. Saying good-bye to Ted is going to be one of the nastier things connected with graduation but we are going to carry the echo of his laughter with us for those darker moments that may lurk ahead. X621 MAUIKICE Z. COOPER Boys' High School Columbia University Don Juan, in their dreams they behold you, And their white arms enfold you, Golden lover of Spain. Of course, Murray isn't Spanish, but with that trifling detail set aside, the rest of the description fits. The conquests of this vagabond lover ring to the heavens and reverber- ate, making tremendous echoes that are a tribute to the psychological power he has over the things gynecology is built around. Like most everything else, the Jaunish art is a technique and Murray has always been a technician. The essential secret of his mastery remains a paradox. How the short blond man, with the short blond moustache does it remains a mystery. Watcli Murray as anything feminine passes by. His eyes gleam with the true scien- tific fire as he searches for signs of pelvic contraction. His fingers twitch, 'his lips make spasmodic movements while his heart is torn by the fear that here may be a spondylolisthetic pelvis with all the dangers that accompany it. O thrice noble Murray whose whole life is enwrapped in the desire to smooth the path of woman. Murray, we thank thee . . . we learned about women from you. i631 le. l I l ALFRED BLAISE Corumoo, B.S.

We all agreed with Al on the question of school spirit. Have you ever tried to disa- gree with him? The bombastic Al can sell almost anything except advertising for the Lichonian. He can smoke any cigar rolled. He looks more like an alderman than any member of the board. He owns the world's best outline of Cecil. Al may be identified as follows: where you see a knot of men gathered about a rather short, plump individual who is gesticulating wildly and behaving much as any under- graduate cheer leader, yell, Al, and a positive reaction is guaranteed. In a burst of thought some day, Al will realize that spirit is spontaneous and not synthetic. That as yet there has been erected no manufactory for abstractivesg that even the fire of a personality cannot ignite the flame of the masses when those masses are saturated with study, and the fire of the personality is, after all, questionable: n'est c'pas? i643 JOSEPH VALENTINE CRESCI Saint Francis Preparatory School Columbia University Alpha Kappa Kappa. The world is too much with joe. Mankind's ethics, morals, standards, are beyond his comprehension. They reflect for him only unfairness, prejudice and disloyalty. Joe is the closest thing to real Confucianism that a medical man may attain. Although there is bustle and ado over the Golden Ruleg althougfh it be preached and shouted from the roof tops of medicineg it is only in the heart of a man like this that it takes root and flowers. Doing unto others as he would have done unto himself is the rudder of Joe's ship of life. It is not a superficial concept but the very theme of his existence. A Joe remembers or says he does. His voice, when he so desires it to be, is an exact reproduction of John C. Cardwell's and we have often suffered severe diaphragmatic spasm while the imaginary voice called for Roberts , When we say good-bye to Joe a lump is going to appear in our respective throats and when we say, See you soon, we will anticipate his, 'Tll remember that. There will be sincerity in the sorrow of parting. Chivalry is dead! Long live Joe! E651 S ' s l G. BRUCE Davis Fairmont High School University of North Carolina Alpha Kappa Kappa. We learned about comfort and the luxury of moving slowly from Bruce. Moving at one-tenth of the speed of the average man among us, Bruce has finally come to exactly the same place as all of us and perhaps therein lies a moral. Bruce has concentrated on the anabolic processes and has reduced katabolism to a minimum. It is a task of tremendous difficulty to even imagine a more likeable character than Bruce. The slow Southern drawl, the easy manner of moving, the calm, slow speech, the supreme, good nature comprise a man easily assimilated into any rank. Bruce was easily assimilated and once il part of the machine took upon himself the business of slowing down the headlong progress which was futile. Bruce has mastered Time. Like the old Greeks, he gives it no thought, wastes no energy upon it. Hurry, bustle, speed, are unknown to him. Many things are unknown to him and the major facts he has not acquired are poor sportsmanship, ill nature, and disagreeable reaction. And who misses them? i661 J VIOLET ma BECK Hunter College High School Hunter College Vi has had one bad break after another and after each one, despite the fact that they were progressively worse, she came up as you would expect . . . smiling. And the characteristic memory picture of Vi will be one in which she is smiling and slapping the boys on the back and being one of them. Vi is one of the few women, medically inclined, who has realized that her path has been a bit more smooth, chiefly because of her femininity. She has freely granted that professorial hands have been less heavy for her than for others of us. And for this frankness, we congratulate her. Leaving Long Island, Vi carries with her the admiration of an hundred meng admir- ation tinged with a sincere' note of real friendship and unburdened by scorn or deceit. There is no true tribute payable to Vi. Medicine does not wield a mellow pen nor a blithesome tongue. Therefore we clumsily proceed to finish this biography as Vi would expect us tog by bluntly remarking that Vi is regular. i671 Z RALPH DElITSCPl Alexander Hamilton High School Columbia University Physically, this is probably the most perfect specimen in the class. One would hardly suspect that the suppressed looking young man was endowed with a musculature, practically perfect. But there is a rub. This is another of those strong, silent men whose speaking is carried on for them by their cravats. On the tie basis, Ralph has been one of the most outspoken of us. Why men, strong men, should permit haber- dashers to inveigle them into some of the color mixtures that have passed through Polhemus we do not know. Mayhap, Ralph could explain and mayhap he would rise in defense of color. It is only now, with the end imminent, that the dawning of a realization comes. In the hideous bustle of study and concentration we find that we have failed to study the men around us. For the sake of texts, we have shunned men. There will never come again the opportunity of observing the actions of such a group as ours has been, and in leaving Ralph we leave with the definite sensation of losing opportunity. For we earnestly feel that there was much to be learned, to be gained from knowing him well. E631 J SAMUEL ERNEST D1 FIGLIA, B.S. Flushing High School New York University Lambda Pbi Mu.

Behind the convex lenses which, to some extent, conceal the optical apparatus of Henry, there lurks in waiting a deceptive gleam which at Hrst sight places an observer on his guard. When one pauses to correlate the smile, which is almost bursting from the lips, with the twinkle in the eye, he realizes that Henry is only trying to look stern and dignified. Even before interneship has begun, this is the typical interne. There is set aside a definite store of sympathy to be used only in certain cases. There is hidden away a stony hardness to be applied p.r.n .... There are signs of the desire to cooperate and assist wherever such action will be possible. . And finally there is indication of riotous times in interne quarters when Henry comes off the bus. If Henry had not decided to help the world out of its ills he would have been just thc man to play Shakesperean roles. Can you imagine Henry singing, With a heigh and a ho and a hey nonino, sweet lovers love the Spring?,' E701 JULIUS CAESAR FELic12TTx, B.S. New Utrecht High School Fordham University Tbeta Kappa Psi.

On that day when Frank moves into his own, Parc and his surgery, Malpighi and his sincere research, Acsculapius and his glory will sinh into oblivion with heads bowed under the yoke of medical mediocrity. Frank was elected the most brilliant man in '31 and that is going some. From the finish of our first year, when we found Frank high among the leaders of the class, his position has remained permanent despite all attempts on the part of the faculty to dislodge him. There is no cry of genius when Frank appears. There is no feigned indifference on his part. He is the Qrst to tell the formula he has employed and the compound to bc used to gain a high place is described by one word-work. Frank will tell you he has worked. XVhile one hand was clutching at the rung just above, the other was reaching clown to where a fellow man needed just a little jerk to bring him along. Perhaps that is why Frank is a bit tired. That is why we want the best things in the world to come to his doorstep. That is why the laurels of medicine will one day fall upon his brow.

It has been hard to keep from openly admiring the trend of this mind. Keenly interested in his medical forebears, Ira spread that interest to those about him and the Medical History Club is a monument to his eiforts. When you care to learn who first described measles, or pertussis, or pneumonia, see Ira. When puzzled about the inventor of the ophthalmoscope, the thousands of technical appliances used in medical practice, or even the chief medical literatures, see Ira. For most of us it has been a new experienceg this meeting of a man who looks to the past, lives the present and permits the future to care for itself. This has been a new type of thought, a new standard of judgment. Reasoning from analogy, we see for Ira a future which will be for him what the past has beeng a field of conquest and splendid victory over which he will inscribe his name in no uncertain manner. l74l i y y HARRY FRIED Boys' High School Columbia University The only man ever to be personally introduced by Thomas H. Evans and introduced, mind you, as one of the best dissectors in the class. For once Dr. Evans was not engag- ing in a sarcastic byplay because Harry was one of the best of the body carvers and there is a big cheering section rooting for him to walk off with the prize. The massive lion-like head houses a fast thinking cortex. Thoughts split seconds off world records as they sprint across the association tracts. The real beauty of Harry's intellect is that he has confidence in it which is backed by careful and cautious judgment. But his scholastic record, his social polish, his appeal to the feminine heart, his earnest medical ideals, fade into nothing as compared with his crowning virtue. Ah no, gentle reader, it is not his surgical skill or his obstetrical ability. It is not his medical knowledge or his gentleness in pediatrics. It is zu virtue that knows no broadcasting, no ubiquity. It is limited to but few men and of this chosen band Harry is chief. Rise I-Iippocrates and greet this man who in four years was never known to have borrowed a cigarette. E751 ABRAHAM IRVING FRIEDIVIAN Talmudical Academy Columbia University Sigma Alpha Mu. 4 Every man of us possessed some peculiar reaction to quizzing but of all reactions here was the most peculiar. Abe simply stopped speaking while the class and quizzer waited and waited. . . A huge sigh of relief generally accompanied the continuation of his speeches. This is a living example of the value of the examination system, particularly the oral type. Grasped in the iron clutch of stage fright, this man, as good a student as any, lost in ten seconds what he had acquired in hours of sincere study. But why waste space, time and paper condemning the system. Students, faculty, examiners, curse it, condemn it, and cast over it anathema. Still, as the close of the year comes around, the usual examinations take place. Much talk, no action-So be it. We steal the above lines from Abe because we feel we express his opinion. It is a certainty that if he ever shrinks into a teaching position students will be assured a different type of treatment. Abe is fond of fair play. More power to him. E761 IRVING FRUCHS, A.B.

Gregory has never been content with superficialities. He has delved deeply and in the junior Year when William Genthner made the mistake of calling him, vague rumblings were heard over the grave of Osler.

A bit reserved through all the time we have known him, his reserve has been unable to hide the warmth of his spirit and the geniality which is so essentially a part of him. Why we must harp on Layton we do not know. But Ed was one of those who set the gentleman on his ear. Ed went home and memorized all the most useless signs known to medicine and surgery and immediately became the pet of the doctor. Ed and Long Island lose each other but the world gains as both mourn. Ed is not going out in search of happiness. It is already his. He is going on the trail of comfort and ethical medical practice. Practice will come to him and comfort he will synthesize wherever he may be. Can you picture Ed when the omentum begins to pad itself for the winter? We hope he'l1 send in a picture. E301 MATTHEW WlLI.IALI GRUSETZ Boys' High School University of Pennsylvania Delta Sigma Theta. We ran into Mat for the first time on OBS in 42 . He was baptized by Dr. Bacile and named coHee and we all voted to refer him to Dr. Goetsch for thyreoidectomy. But with daily meetings it became clear that tremor can be produced by many things not noted in the books and when Mat got to the stage where he no longer feared a few laughs he was pronounced cured. . Possessed of an affablc nature and a leavening common sense coupled with an engag- ing humor, Matty looks on life and its difficulties with a philosophy which is whimsical, if not naive. Though seldom challenged on a technical point, he is far from bookish. He does know a little something about that outside reading but aren't we all? If Matty ever corners you, and in so doing proceeds to extract a Wallet from his pocket, run to the first harbor of safety, for Matty has a brother who plays basketball and that wallet is pregnant with clippings about the kid. That's his only Weakness. He is certainly entitled to it. i81l EMANUEL12 R.'xFr1'A15LE GUBITOSI, Ph.G. Townsend Harris Hall I-1.5. College of the City of New York Columbia College of Pharmacy A story is told of a prince who was given, by his dying mother, a small gold charm which he was advised to break on that day when fear and darkness came into his life. The Prince resorted to his charm in a period of darkness when all seemed to be lost to him and on breaking the charm there came from it a great light which showed him the way. just such a charm has Goobie been to '3l. Vle have known darkness and when with it there came almost paralysing fear we looked for him. Out of his great store of humor came the light which dispersed hysterical fear. This has been our secret for four years and now when the charm is no longer needed we turn it to the world where it may be employed in greater deeds. There has been only one Gubitosi. He has been a source of infinite pleasure to one hundred men and he has won the respect and admiration of every one of them. He leaves with that reward beyond which there is nothing greater. '31 wants a good measure of happiness to come to him and the class knows that as he has radiated optimism to those about him, so will the world radiate to him the success of which he is justly deserving.

It is said, that in life, the few persons who really attain their objectives are those who attribute success to initiative and perseverance. If this be a truism then Phil is pre- destined to full possession of the end of all his aims because initiative and perseverance are his sword and shield. From the first day of our acquaintance with him we were dimly aware of the presence of those qualitiesg as acquaintance ripened into friendship we were forcibly struck with the knowledge of their existenceg and now as friendship is about to terminate with graduation we naturally conclude that these same qualities, ripcned and matured by four years of work, will be the terminus a quo of Phil's conquest of life. And it is this knowledge that gives the parting a silver lining. We have but one last request to make and that is that Phil drop out of the feud with Lipschitz over the latest in Men's Klassy Kut Klothing. T833 N GEORGE D.

He is in a class by himself. He is the embodiment of Kinetic energy. Exacting professors and stern instructors have meant nothing in his young life. He met them all with his usual nonchalance. Note that the aforementioned manner was constructed of work, sound knowledge, and good judgment. One wonders at the ease with which Irv managed to prepare for his examinations. For some ungodly reason Irv, wants to specialize in Obstetrics. He will make a good man at the job. He knows as much of the subject as a student could be expected to know. He has a firm practical basis for his knowledge. Of course, Dr. Beck has not yet called him in consultation but who knows what the years will bring?

Lennie decided to finish at Long Island and although he arrived a bit late in our course of study he found his place among us and has held it. He will long be remembered as the one man who could draw pictures for his honor the Layton and get away with it. We might also remark that he was one of the elite group which passed under the aforementioned professor's eye without stimulating the usual zero. As small as he Was, Len had the knack of making himself heard. In any argument he boomed out above every one and if you think that is not an accomplishment, try it. The lecture hall is one place where arguments are won by the man with the biggest voice. Len won lots of them. Any man who can play chess during the Junior Year and get away with it is going to get somewhere some day. Len played lots of chess but we don't know Where he's going.

We doubt whether he was born with a book in his hands but we are Willing to give odds that he'll die that Way. Most of his time is spent conning the writings of the great medicos and though we have been unable to observe his activities beyond Borough Hall it is almost a certainty that he has his romantic moments. Who dares prophesy as to the future of any of us? Who will venture into the cold spaces of metaphysics? Still, what terrors can the future hold for a man whose first public lecture was on Aplastic Anemia? What is the future anyway compared with the possibilities of curing the disease with calves liver? . . . We'll wager that Harry will write to tell us that it is pernicious anemia that is cured by hepatic treatment.

From hearsay we have learned that Henry is a splendid dancer but we are still waiting for visual proof. Of course there were some four dances run by the council which were attended by all and sundry but Henry was far too busy with collecting tickets, or guiding chaperones, or escorting the boys home. Kirk and the Unicorn have had their battle and it has been a thing of beauty. No decision has been rendered as yet. Kirk specializes in a fighting finish. He may loitcr by the Way in the task before him but with the reckoning imminent he puts on a finishing spurt that is devastating. He has driven the Student Council into action, he has carried the burdens of his friends, his prolific pen has helped build this volume.

Jerry's one fault is a trivial one. I-Ie must learn that one cannot practice Medicine upon himselfg that despite diagnostic certainty, a man is unable to judge himself as those who objectively study him.

New York University did herself proud when She chose Tony as her walking delegate to the august halls of Long Island. His demeanor and wit would make Peter Pan and Artemus NVard respectively, cringe. Since those busy days as Freshmen in Histology when Tony's comments on trick staining of slides revealed his true self, he has been the truc observer and the none too gentle satirist we found him. He has won affection and regard. Tony's ability has stood the first great test. Beyond graduation another test is coming which will be met with conscience, effort and a sterling ethical concept of practice. Intellect and personality will embellish his equipment and he will find himself poised on the crest of the wave. i921 .-e-3 , fy ll i I. .l l I It i 'L r. ,N I- Ni 5.x 1 1. Lt.

What effort he has expended has been toward one endg the achievement of knowledge for the sake of self-betterment with but slight regard for the requirements of stereotyped examinations. And Sam has bettered himself mentally. Morally, Sam attained a peak years ago and his character has needed no added strengthening. ' It has been for Sam n long, hard struggle to the doctorateg a struggle over a road whose sign posts at every turn were self-denial and self-effacement. A poet named Henley years ago wrote a poem he called Invictus . The last lines of the last stanza are, I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.

Here are complacency and smugness to the Queexfs taste .... This is the type of man so constituted that he is able to proceed through life alone. He is, if expedient, his own friend, his own taskrnaster, his own maker of laws. Because he is ethically sound he requires no guiding hand. jake must ultimately learn that despite his disregard for the world, its inhabitants, its conventions, he must come to a definite adjustment with it no matter how distasteful that compromise may be. The eternal oneness of Jake must end as all individuality endsg by absorption into the melting pot from which advancement comes.

The bachelors degree having given him no shocks he essayed medicine and continued his shockproof way despite the ministrations of a heartless faculty. Our crystal becomes a bit dimmed but we have little recourse to peering into Al's future.

Take an artist's paletteg mix on it every color in the spectrum and a few of your own invention and if you are gifted with imagination there is a bare possibility that you may visualize one of Jake's ties. The etiology of photophobia is now nicely filed away. Worry is not included in this man's vocabulary. Optimism, humor, and 21 soundly based carefree attitude have replaced it forever. Jake's equanimity is reflected in his dress. Only a supremely complacent mind could tolerate a lavender suit, tan shoes, panama hat and a sun-burst tie. Commencement comes and we go our several ways. While most of us will reflect on how the brutal years will eternally form a barrier between us, Jake will not reflect. He will shrug his shoulders, take his diploma, interne, successfully practice and instead of pondering on his classmates' whereabouts, will appear at the Alumni dinners each year to see the boys. i961 XVILLIAM A.

Like Cicero who could not enumerate the good qualities of his friends, we find ourselves stumped as to where to begin with the enumeration of Bill,s. But there is no n.eed to put them in print. Most of us are acquainted with them. Watching him for a period of time, the observer concludes that his chief charac- teristics are sincerity and earnestness. What more can be said of anyone? It is fair to add that Bill possesses one quality which is even more rare than those which We have enumerated above. Dignity is a part of him which nothing can ever take away. Poise is part of the polish he has given himself in addition to the medical acumen he has endeavoured to build. Bill is one man in '31 who has been far above sentimentality. He has had his work to do and he has made no romantic picture of it. He will shed no tears over farewell. He will brusquely shake hands and go about his business.

Those of us who take our first two years at Long Island find the going tough enough. It is not surprising that we honor those who come into the Junior Year unprepared for its rigors as we are. Particularly do we honor those who come through with colors flying. Morris was never elected to BOA. No doubt he was qualified but he was rather a super BOA. His were BOA's of magnitude.

Abe had so many calls that were goose eggs for results that physical restraint was necessary to keep him from leaving school and entering the Fireman's College. In addition to this office Abe is president of the Optimists for there never was a dark cloud which he could not tinge with silver. Strangely quiet in his usual moments, he possesses a fierce passion for disputation and it has been a source of pleasure to see him engaged in a forensic struggle with some unwarned victim, drawn, unwittingly, into battle. We well remember his explanations of Blood Pressure readings as he presented them in Physical Diagnosis. Wade Oliver asked in one of his poems, XVhat is youth but a coin to squander? According to Abe it is nothing else but and you may believe us he is squandering it because, Youth held lightly is youth held fast. Liooj HARRY K. MARKS, Ph.G., Ph.Ch.

Wllile Harry rides to school, sits in class, underlines his texts, talks to the boys, rides home, that poor defenseless piece of gum is chewed and chewed and chewed. In dealing with Mr. XVrigley's product, Harry knows no humanitarianism, Harry is given to moods. He is a varying character changing in response to unknown stimuli. Most of us have been unable to solve him. He seems to be two men and the second man is sphinx like. No one knows anything of him, except that he is unapproachahle, unfriendly, walled in. The everyday Harry is given to jesting on anything, smoking anybody's cigarettes, chewing anybody's gum. It would be advisable to strangle the second man. More of the world has paraded past Harry than most of us. He is a bit older, a bit wiser, possessed of a little more experience. He has seen much of commercial dealings and much of professional mannerisms. Therefore, we close without our usual moral. Harry is well able to adjust himself to future vicissitudes.

The firm is still in existence and it is one of the few things we point to with pride. This of course is no place to philosophise on friendship. This space should be devoted to several trite remarks on Ike, but it is difficult even to think of him without stimu- lating thought on the long friendship between him and the gentleman opposite. It is rare for men to hold together so closely and it is a tribute to both men that the friend- ship, and intangibility, still holds itself erect. Sacrifice and a helping hand are finite factors in the establishment of familiarity and Ike is familiar with both. He does not limit himself to the assistance of one fellow. He carries cheer to all who meet him. His attitude is unusual because one does not anticipate it in him. He has exercised exquisite judgment in everything. He has molded a solid bed of experience. He has placed behind him a scholastic record that is a tribute to him. Medicine will be proud of him. H023 THOMAS FRANCIS GIBNEY MCAX'ENEY, B.S.

F1061 l i DAVID B. MON:-IMT, B.S. Central High School, Akron, Ohio College of the City of New York Pb! Lambda Kappa. Dietetics are more in Dave's line than dielectics, but some of his logical conclusions have been classic. May we elucidate? The following is a typical soliloquoy .... I am on Medicine at Long Island to increase my knowledge and to better the status of the patients confined here. A blood count is a benehcial thing for a patient. The better a blood count is done, the better will the patient be. Any interne can do a better blood count than I can. Therefore, I shall permit the internes to do the blood counts. All for the good of the patient. This is a process known as rational rationalization. Dave has assiduously avoided applying it to anything but blood counts and therein lies the secret of his ability to duck the avalanche of criticism which is so easily set in motion. Dave and Sid Moskowitz are still the same person to many of us. These are the Damon and Pythias of the college. We are told that the situation is but a duplication of an academic relationship. There is a greater thrill in seeing friendship survive than in hearing the first cry of the newborn. Alike as two peas in a pod, the friendship was inevitable and has been as fine as the two men are. fiom BENJAMIN GERALD MOIKIXISON Eastern District High School Columbia University In answer to the cry for stout hearted men '31 presents Ben.

This is the irresistible force they speak of in Physics and he has as yet to find the body he cannot move. Onward through life he will go as he has gone through college. Surrounded by a few men who have come to admire him, firmly intrenched in a healthy scepticism, he advances slowly but with a fatal surety. On the backs of men like Ben the greater of the available burdens will be placed. The spectacular will never appear in him. He will trudge along without complaint and without remonstrance when new burdens appear. His attitude will be a reflection of the faith his classmates have placed in him. That faith will repose undisturbed. f108:I SIDNEY NIGSKOWITZ, B.S. DeWitt Clinton High School College of thc City of New York Pbi Lamlada Kappa. A perspicuous editor of a volume called Microcosm,,' at C. C. N. Y. remarked facetiously perhaps, that Sid would make a grand politician. This may be just as facctious, but that remark goes with us.

Need we add that there was no prodromal coronary occulsion previous to the previously mentioned rupture? Clem plans to give Obstetrics a good cleaning and in these times of prophylactic forceps, version sans indication, ubiquitous sections, a cleaning may be a good thing.

Herewith is the most pleasant personality in '31. We speak thus bluntly because, beyond question, the casual observer meeting every member of the class would ultimately arrive at the same conclusion. These Italian wines do more than warm the gastric mucosa. Frank, like his friend Nick, knows and loves good living. He is an ardent follower of the Epicureans. Because he likes good board, a comfortable home, and the lesser luxuries, he will become a medical substance. Desiring those things, he will earnestly strive for them and it is an axiom that he who desireth, need only apply himself in order that he may attain. At the end of the Freshman Year, as we were leaving for the long vacation, Frank said, I hate to leave this place. Some of us hate to leave now because departure means leaving men like Frank. fl131 BERNARD CARL PECK, B.S. Bulkeley High School Bates College Pbi Lambda Kappa. From the moment you first clasp Bernie's hand you like him and if questioned on the basis of your opinion of him, you are at a total loss to put it into words. The factors which make up the man we know by his name are elusive and ethereal and very much in the abstract. One cannot use genuine to describe him, nor does splendid turn the trick. He seems to be elevated far above the adjectives and descriptive phrases. He moves in a silent strength that radiates from him as he goes. Bernie has been one of the more serious men in '31. He has not been sullen or grouchy. He has been cheery and happy and as playful as the rest but we have sensed in him the stern background which has earned for him a goodly store of respect. We want Bernie to make good and perhaps our attitude is a selfish one. We Want the future to conirm our first impression of him. We want the world to Hnd in him' a clean-cut gentleman, honest, square shooting, and loyal. 1:1141 SAMUEL ROBERT PERIUN, B.S. . Sharpsburg High School Pb!

A fine man to walk, talk or drink with but a hend incarnate when seated opposite you in a game of poker. On the basis of comparative scoring, Sam easily demonstrates that Pittsburgh has turned out the world,s greatest football teams. On another basis, of rather an esoteric nature, he will back his team with hard, cold cash against anyone it happens to be playing. Don't bet him .... Witlm his money riding on it, a paralysed horse can outrun Man 0' NVa1'. Sam is gifted with tact and this is the quality which has enabled him to be as out- spoken as he is without causing offense. Sam curries no favors, speaks his mind, carries on as he chooses. He will not mince words with you. His opinion is formed because he desires to express it. Wl1C1'C he does not seek expression he does not fuss with thought. We want Sam to carry on in the future in an identical manner. We want those who encounter him to feel as we have feltg that there is nothing hidden when Sam is involved in a situation.

How often he has tried to ride his fellows only to burst into laughter when the riding was beginning to take. Give us the man who smiles at his work. This may be contrary to the old adage about the man who sings, but we mean to imply that Milf is eternally smiling and have you ever heard him sing? The smile, the brisk, jerky, manner, the quip accompanying each ten wordsg these things make Milt himself. Conformity to conservative standard is a safe procedure and most individuals should conform. Milt's individuality is a type too bright, too wholesome to be lost in the universal formula. 1:1201 l ANTHONX' CUTTE REIGE1k Boys' High School Columbia University Tony will some day be hailed as the Swift of Medicine for, judging from past performances, his pen will scratch on paper a great satire on medical men, medical research, and medical study.

Tony might ask you to describe the bewildering technique of administering an hypodermic injection. In your reply, remember to include such facts as: sterilization of your instrumentsg filling of the instrumentg insertion of the needle into the skin of the patientg the size of the needleg and when you have exhausted yourself with exhibiting your memory for unimportant facts, Tony will probably ask why the injection was given in the first place. Great boy, Tony . . . may we meet again and laugh again .... When we meet some five years hence there will be lots to laugh at. And our roars of merriment will be untinged by fears of coming quizzes, eavesdroppers, indisoretions.

Given a short period of time to engage in some modernistic weaseling, all the quiet manner disappeared and Merrill proceeded to tell the boys just how things stood. Merrill reads wellg particularly theses on the phospholipins of the brain, to which facts Dr. Steel will testify. Besides the moustache Merrill boasts a master's degree and we envy him for it. We are not so envious of the moustache. It is hard to reconcile the Merrill of '31, stalwart, certain, unfearing, with the shy, anxious, Merrill of '27. The years have been bountiful.

And as Isaac will, by virtue of his heritage, reach the uppermost reaches of medical practice, so did this man reach the fastigium of his art. May we be so bold as to quote the final lines of the first speech of Mr. Benjamin Disraeli to the House of Commons? Mr. Disraeli wound up in these words .... NOW, Mr. Speaker, we see the philosophical prejudices of Man. I respect cheers even when they come from the mouth of a political opponent. I think sir, I am not at all sur- prised, sir, at the reception I have met with, I have begun several things many times and I have always succeeded at last. Ay, sir, and though I sit down now, the time will come when you will hear me.

Being in a courageous mood, we strike terror aside long enough to state that the NB. in the name means, Barrington, and thereby hangs a tale. It is a story of long hours of fruitless researchg days of endeavour and sleepless nightsg ultimate reward, failure. No one knows, and we are afraid no one will ever learn where the middle name came from. Here the aphorism, What's in a name, is in the ascendant. Barrington by any other name would be as great. We invite a very literal translation of the last state- ment. Who is greater than a student who can force his fellows to focus their atten- tion on him while he delivers a profound lecture on the embryological derivation and development of sex? There is about Milt an aura which invites friendly advance. The smile, the quiet, almost inaudible voice, the immediate amiable reaction are among the virtues which have earned Milt his host of companions. These same allies will earn for him, if such a thing is possible, greater things than friends in the coming days. 1:1241 1 V 1 K NIAXXVELL H. ROSENDALE, B.S.

After two years at Cincinnati he reconsidered and decided to spend the last two redeeming his earlier indiscretion. Unaccustomecl to the ways of the system, Mac played the game of watchful waiting to finish in a blaze of glory.

Starting at a time in life when most of us hope to be well settled and comfortable, Hilmar has run the gamut of academic and professional study and has come to the cnd with a head that may be a bit bloody but which still remains unbowed.

Now and then he wandered a bit from his chosen iield but for the most part he stuck closely to the defined boundaries. We doubt whether he ever found the work difficult.

He has just rambled along, in laconic fashion, lending his ears with reckless abandon. In this era of talking, it has been rather refreshing to find a man who limited his speechto the few syllables Milt uses. Milt has not disclosed his plans.

He has not singled out one of us to receive his largesse but he has spread deeds of kindness over the surface of '31. There is hardly a man among us who does not leave as one of Sam's debtors. Sam has never sought the limelight. One would say rather that he has avoided it. Of what value is the transient glow of public adulation compared with the gratification bestowed by a clear conscience and a good measure of self-satisfaction? Somewhere in this volume there is a small, informal snapshot of Sam. Perhaps you will wonder how it was obtained. No, dear reader, a revolver was not held before the gentleman forcing him to stay before the camera.

For four years an indefatigable worker, constantly driving himself, moving from man to man, encouraging, urging, stamping out worry and fear, Len has endeared himself to all of us. It has been a privilege to have him as our leader and here in enduring print we acknowledge his leadership and express to him our gratitude. There was nothing asked in four long years which Len refused. Len would trade his bible to help a fellow man. Clinics are devastating to him because such a flood of sympathy wells from him that exhaustion comes on early. Len has never asked return for largcsse. He has given and given and has received nothing, nothing but the reward that comes with work well done, :A clear conscience, an honest heart and a sincere desire to further the cause of mankind.

Willie, the temperamental. Willie, the insatiable. Bring Willie details. He possesses the broad generalizations. He seeks the embellishments that come from fearsome hours of intensive search after minutiae. Give him one friend and cast away the rest of mankind. Give him the material with which to work and the trumpet of Gabriel will never be heard by his ears. Willie does not know that he is a dreamer. He does not know that he is almost a poet. He thinks he is a man of science dedicated to the destruction of the morbidities of life. He is bent on spending the rest of his living days in proving that he is such. Yet of all men of '31 his will be the hardest lot when fatalities occur. His will be the conscience that will cry out most. His will be the will to fight to the death the unseen spectre. Willie becomes the champion of life. And life is beauty and Willie will give all for it. Was Wordsworth a greater poet? 1:1441 BENJAMIN L. YELLEN Boys' High School Columbia University Dear Ben: Dr. Layton notwithstanding, if you think you need a consultant in a case, call one. Dr. Layton notwithstanding, please do not attempt a differential between chronic myocarditis and general debility. Don't feel badly about Dr. Goernerg perhaps in time osmotic pressure will elevate a column of fluid to infinity. This is not the time to give advice nor are we thc people to give it, but-if it is possible for you, in the future, to think on things as you have thought on them in the past, do so. If you can maintain your desire to have things proved to you to your own satisfaction, maintain it. Always remember, Ben, that at the gate that waits at the end of things you are going to be accountable to yourself alone and the opinions of others Won't be worth a grain of chaff. Bc just what you have been and the future will take care of itself. YE EDITORS. lf145j PAUL LICI-ITBLAU, A.B. DeWitt Clinton High Schooi Columbia University Introducing, with a fanfare, a crescendo and a hullabaloo, the first discoverer of that most picturesque and lovely rash, the Lichtblau Cupping Rash. Unless you know Paul well you will never suspect the breadth of his knowledge or the profundity of his wisdom. One would never suspect that this reticence is a virtue, that his application is astoundingg that his interpretation of physical signs is magical. His ability to read from the patient is well known to a large circle of acquaintances. Those problems which drive most of us to distraction have, seemingly, overlooked Paul. This might be termed luck but we know of a better explanation. Unswerving determination and concentration on the present problem are better Gods than luck. We have a suspicion that Paul is going to give life's problems a fearful drubbing, and why not? JOSEPH VIVIANO, A.B. Boys' High School Cornell University A patient must react to Joe as his classmates have during four years of association. Somehow, intuitively perhaps, people find in this man, a well of sympathy and a sincerity that is almost startling. The quiet voice, the rich smile, the easy grace of Joe, are supremely comforting. No man has ever heard Joe's voice tinged with angerg no man has ever found a scowl on his face. Uniformity has marked his character and system underlies the functioning of his brain. In all things he has been consistent and his every act has been steeped with endeavour and a keen sense of decent dealing. The villainesque appearance fpurely the result of the fiery moustachej is what the talkies could use but medicine has claimed Joe for her own and unless he should find his way to DeLee's clinic he will have to be content with the drama that is played by every physician. Joe is going to play a leading role on the medical stage and we are hoping to be part of the audience which applauds him. - 51463 CARL LESLIE LEVENSON, A.B. livander Childs High School Cornell University Pbi Dvliu E pxilolr.

Potts has remained a mystery to the end. He has passed with us through the college years and we know only this of him: that he has encountered few difficulties which have been big enough to worry him. He has kept his mind focussed on the problems of the moment and in his devotion to his work he excluded almost everything from his vision. We know nothing of his opinions, his plans, his philosophy. We venture nothing concerning his character or his personality. There is nothing but the impression he has made. He has been strong and silent. At lectures he assiduously took his notes, closed his book at the end, rose from his seat and left. Here and there a slight nod or a short hello indicated that hc knew the men about him. If this manner which encompasses him has been sufficient to carry him through the gauntlet of medical education we feel that it will be of sufficient strength to carry him successfully to practice. f147j There are men and classes of men that stand above the common herd . . . the soldier, the sailor, the shepherd not in- frequently, the artist rarely, rarelier still the clergyman, the physician almost as a rule. He is the flower of our civilization and when that stage of man is done with, only to be rnarvelled at in history he will be thought to have shared but little in the defects of the period and to have most notably exhibited the virtues of the race. Generosity he has, such as is possible to those who prac- tice an art and never to those who drive a trade, discretion, tested by a hundred secretsg tact, tried in a thousand em- barrassmentsg and what are more important, Herculean cheerfulness and courage. So it is that, he brings air and cheer into the sick room and often enough, though not so often as he desires, brings healing. ROBERT Louis STEVENSON. I 148 fl JUNIORS History Class of 1932 HE fellow in the white coat entering the clinic? That's a junior. The tubes hanging out of his pocket are parts of a stethoscope. He carried them last year also-to startle people on the subway with his importance. By the end of this industrious year it shall have been transformed from its ornamental status to some useful place in the community of physicians. We might remark on the passage of time, and recall those days fnow so remotej when we looked with awe at the those privileged characters who swung with such nonchalance into the clinic entrance on Amity Street. But in those remote days we doubt whether wc, as freshmen, foresaw the possibilities of a manikin, a fetus and the pit. Nor did we forsee a certain Saturday morning paralysis of the vocal cords, nor other mornings in the surgery clinics when our fingers became thumbs. This junior year introduced us properly to the patient, the fellow we had been preparing to meet for nearly six years. May it be allowed us to wonder how the introduction struck some of us. Of course, we had known, them before, but only a bowing acquaintance. Now we are onspeaking terms, except, of course, with those poor fellows who it pleases the pathologist to analyze on the autopsy table. Inci- dentally, we wish to thank the department of pathology for the innovation of posted autopsies. A majority of the members of the class have taken advantage of this opportunity to spend valuable moments over the lessons which the dead have to teach us. These building stones are the parts of a structure from which we hope to look beyond the horizon and, at least, reach for the sky. We do not make reference to the biblical Tower of Babel, exactly, although the discussions immediately preceding and following written quizzes do simulate 'a meaningless hub-bub. The sky for which we reach is a little more attainable, the clear blue of the relief of human suffering with our knowl- edge, little as it may be, but to which we Wish to add. 111501 CLASS OFFICERS FRANK CIANCIh'1INO - - President RALPI-I SUSSMAN - Vice-President DOMINICK A.

Columbia University SCDPHCJMORES The Class of 1933 EFORE the history of a second year is written, it is only fitting that a brief word be said of the alterations engendered by the experience of the first division of life at Long Island. The Gods of the Lightning yawncd and '33 became Sopho- moric. The anatomy, histology, embryology and awkwardness of that first year drifted into the past and the return to college after a long vacation proved a pleasant one. A strange sophistication marked most of us and the individual hatband seemed to have made some increase in size. After all we were verging on that joyous day when each would carry that badge of the profession, the stethoscope. Nonchalance and sophistication received a slight jolt after the first roll call. There had been casualties and the class gritted its teeth and settled down. Physiology and chemistry, pharmacology and physical diagnosis, and above all things . . . obstetrics. The old clumsiness reappeared for a time but it has gradually been wearing away. Definite alteration was made in the leadership of the class. New elections were held, new officers chosen, new policies sifted and studied. '33 has made a consistent effort to determine the most efficient methods of carrying on, not only in class affairs, but in academic fields. '33 was among the first of the classes which contributed toward the enlargement of Hoagland Library and several excellent volumes on the shelves stand as permanent tribute to the member of the group. The Sophomore curriculum has been interesting despite its intensive nature. '33 has gained considerably from it and expects that gain to be magnified as the vacation months give time for quiet retrospection and perhaps some practical application. To the graduating class '33 extends its congratulations and best wishes. It is the sincere belief of '33 that practice of medicine will be to the members of '31 as pleasant and profitable as have been the years spent here at Long Tsland. fisaj Presizlenf - Vive-Prvsizlzfzzf Secrvfary - Treasurer Class of 1933 OFFICERS - - - A.

The assurances of those who had come safely through the voyage were of little com- fort and even the cheering tones of the greater powers were of little avail against the uncertainty of the journey. Once launched, our ship took the course it chose. Far ahead the harbor gleamed and the trusty vessel veered toward the dim goal. Aboard ship we came to learn that our duties were identical. No one man was burdened by excess tasks. Each had a similar assignment and to it he was expected to give all his energy, all his strength, all his thought., It quickly developed that the course was carefully plotted long before our arrival on board and it was as quickly realized that attention to individual duties was the best method of assisting the progress of the voyage. For four months we journeyed without officers but with their coming the seas be- came smoother and the speed of our craft greater. Under their guiding hands there was accentuated the concept we had attained before. Anatomy, gross and microscopic, has been an enchanting and new discovery. Embryological development and the structure of the nervous system have given to us a clean basis on which to superimpose fresh knowledge. Chemistry will help to solve the greater problems that are awaiting. '34 has enjoyed this first taste of the sea. It has been arduous and intensive and there have been many trials. Looking back we can laugh a bit at the barriers we thought insurmountable. Looking forward, we challenge the future to present us the difficulties that have been presented to voyagers before us.

The problems chiefly engaging the attention of the Council are the Stu- dent Loan Fund, the Hospital Bed Fund, the Lichonian and the College Dance. Each year the entering class is met at its first meeting by members of the Council who officially welcome the class and present to it the mechanisms of the student organ- ization. The supervision of the elections in the first year is in the hands of the Council. Over several years, the Student Loan Fund has been augmented in its scope so that an increasing number of loans is made to those men who are in need of funds to help defray tuition expenses. At the present time about ten loans are made each year. The Council has deemed it necessary to restrict advancement of funds to Seniors and Juniors but it is expected that in the near future such restriction will be removed. As loans are repaid, the moneys accumulated are set aside to swell the Loan Fund. Through the Hospital Bed Fund, which is made available through apportionment of the Student Activities Fee, those students, unfortunate enough to require hospital treatment, who so request, are reimbursed to the extent of 4022 of the Hospital Ward fee. In connection with this fund, the Council is considering the endowment of one or two beds for the use of students in order that the expense of hospital treatment be lightened for them. The Lichonian functions as a student activity under the supervision of the Coun- cil. In order to make for closer harmony between the Editorial Board and the Council, Milton Schreiber, Editor-In-Chief has been elected an honorary member of the Coun- cil. I All arrangements for the College Dance were made by the Council and its com- mittee under the direction of Leonard D. Williams. Besides these prescribed activities, the Council has been active in matters of student government and has striven at all times to establish a closer relationship among students, instructors and the alumni.

February 20-Accomplished this day but little, looking forward as I was to the evening and awaiting with full eagerness the coming of the late afternoon that I might leave my stint and beget me home. Early departed the halls of the hospital leaving the halt and the blind to the gentle hands of the internes. Home to dine, hurriedly and with but little thought for decorum. Dressed me in full dress and peered long at the image in the mirror wondering. By petrol wagon to the home of Glga who has become more beautiful with the years and more distant. We, leisurely by the long road to Brooklyn and the St. George, meeting on the way the Unicorn and his maide. To the Grand Ball Room wherein the classes cavorted merrily about the great hall to the swift musick under the varied flood of light that changed eternally, revealing with each new moment, a newer and more beauteous constellation. Strolled about a time greeting the familiar fellowes and tendering our respects to Professor Cardwell. Admired a moment the sprightliness of Doctors Gibson and MacGregor then to the balcony where were gathered Bacchanales and where there gurgled constantly a stream of cold, pale, ale of ginger. From the balcony, we watched the swirling color below as it swept in rhythm to the musick. There below hastened Leonard NVilliams, tired and happy from his efforts. And we later congratulated him and those of his men who so nobly accomplished the task before them. For this year a fulsome success was the reward of their efforts and the beauty of everything overwhelmed the senses and threatened to keep us long after the appointed hour. And so we came to the hour of departure and it was with a great pride that we bid good night to those we were leaving. And I thought how as the years tolled by the College was advancing to greater heights and I pondered on how its progress was the proof of the efforts of the men who attended it. And as the Dance was more beautiful than before so are the classes more efficient and able and those men who are coming after us will establish the truth of the thought. Even more slowly than before, home by petrol wagon, intoxicated, by the several beauties and the musick that lingered. Bid the lovely Olga farewell as my classmates were bidding an hundred lovely Olgas farewell and drove with dispatch homeward. Smoked a while my pipe and offered thanks to Leonard Williams and the Council and dreamed a bit of the coming dissolution of our class. Philosophized some moments then realized that tomorrow there was much work and that the Dance was past and ended. So, hoping for dreams, to bed. 51781 Alumni Association N May 25th of this year the Alumni Association of the Long Island College Hospital will have reached its Hfty-first anniversary. Since that time, when the greatly revered Alexander J. C. Ckene was president, there have been a great number of physicians added to our rolls, many of whom have been illustrious, and of whom the association, as well as the College, might justly be proud. Many of these illustrious men are still alive, still taking part in the activities of the association and of the college. There are many more in the embryonic stage of their development into physicians and surgeons of national and international repute. To you who have not yet attained the coveted degree of Doctor of Medicine this does not now mean very much-but in the course of a very short time you will have reached that milestone that actually marks only the beginning of the race, and it should be a great consolation to you that you are in such good company. You all automatically become members of your Alumni Association when you receive your degree. However, things that automatically occur leave the individual so slightly affected that he is barely aware of its happening. So will it be with you, unless by this word, or by the activity of some alumnus, you are brought into direct contact with it. I am hopeful that someone may successfully stir you into a realization that this Alumni Association is your association both as an alumnus and as a student. Being a large organization there is a small group of officers, and an advisory group, called the Board of Managers, which, to the best of its ability, carries on the work of the organization between the annual meetings. During the year the Board of Managers welcomes suggestions from its members, and, if feasible, will carry them out. This board has the interest of each alumnus at heart, and the interest of the student, as well-for, wherever possible, it expresses opinions which are sometimes helpful in the college administration. It is your privilege, and your duty, to become an active member in this associa- tion as soon as you have graduated. You are furthermore cordially invited, and urged, to attend its animal meeting and its annual dinner each spring, even before becoming a member. During the past seven or eight years the association has published an Alumni Journal, which is devoted entirely to things pertaining to the college and its alumni. It is not a scientific journal. It should be brimful of interest for every one of us, and surely would be so if each alumnus would send the editor news of his own activities, or those of his classmates. You should receive this journal six times a year after your graduation, and if you do not, it is your duty to write and find out why you do not receive it. Possibly the omission is only because the editor does not have your correct address. I have not touched upon the accomplishments of the association during these fifty years, though they have been manyg but have devoted the space allotted me in urging your active participation in its work. Only by such will you realize its full benehts. To the Class of 1931 we wish every successful attainment throughout the entire course of your medical careers, with the utmost in Health and Happiness for a complete enjoyment of your practicing the Healing Art. For the other classes I will leave this expression of good wishes to my successors, except to say that we sincerely wish you an uneventful journey to the time of receiving your degrees. Alumni Association of Long Island College Hospital. E. ALMORE GAUVAIN, 1918 President. f179j The Gold-Headed Cane of Hoagland HE gold-headed cane has been for centuries the symbol of the erudition and dignity of the physician. It accompanied him at the gayest gatherings and inspired him at the gravest consultations. There is one gold-headed cane which, because it was possessed in turn by five very distinguished English physicians, has become the most famous cane in medical history. Dr. William Macmichael im- mortalized it in the story in which the cane relates its autobiography, which is the life story of the eminent doctors to whose dignity it added. But the gold-headed cane does not stand alone as a medical historian for Hoagland Hall, too, could tell many a strange story of medical lore. For here, these past three years, have stalked the ghosts of Hippocrates, Galen, and Vesalius. Here, too, Paracelsus performed his experiments in Alchemy and Ambroise Pare developed the art of Surgery. And on the very table where countless frogs have been sacrificed to test the validity of the laws of muscle and nerve, Malpighi re-discovered the circulation of the capillaries. The MEDICAL HISTORY CLUB now enters upon the fourth year of its existence. It is a memorable year, too, for it marks the graduation of the group which founded it. The club was organized in 1928, fol1owingADean Miller's course in Embryology and had as its source of inspiration in the papers that were read by the students during the term on the historical aspects of Embryology. The group has always been a small one but it has flourished well because what it lacked in numbers was more than made up for in enthusiasm and earnestness. Meetings have been held monthly and have been attended almost regularly by Dean Miller and Assistant Dean Babbott whose suggestions and comments have added much to our knowledge and pleasure. It has been our general policy to have as speakers only members of our own group, for We felt that by active participation we would derive much more than. by reclining comfortably while being entertained by lectures invited from without. This policy, however, was interrupted twice in the three years. The first time was in 1929, when we held a symposium on Digitalis and invited Dr. J. Hamilton Crawford, of the Department of Physiology, to contribute. Dr. Crawford's intimate association with Cushny, Mackenzie, and the other British physicians who are responsible for the modern conception of digitalis therapy made his talk a most fascinating one, replete with fond memories and humorous ancedotes. The second exception occurred this year when we invited Dr. Archibald Malloch, Librarian of the N. Y. Academy of Medicine, to speak to us on William Harvey. Dr. Malloch is probably the most profound student of Harvey in America, and he confided to us after the meeting that before he had Written a line of his noted book on Harvey, he had read. every article and document available on the subject. Dr. Malloch's talk will long be remembered as a true example of a scholarly and intensely human presentation. Owing to the pressure of studies, the papers presented by our members, with but few exceptions, were not derived from primary sources. To attempt to search for original relics and manuscripts in obscure corners of the globe requires a consumption of time and energy which is not within the scope of the medical student-such researches must wait for a more favorable time. But although our material was obtained f180:I from secondary sources, our manner of presentation was highly original. It had to be so, for there was no precedent to follow. One original effort which we point to with just pride is a series of talks on the medicine of the Talmud by Jacob Leavitt. The spontaneity and thoroughness with which he presented his subject were the result of years of study begun even before entering medical school. A synopsis of his work was published in the Long Island Alumni Journal, as were several other papers read at our meetings. We have usually had two or three papers presented each time we met. Some of our most interesting ones included a study of Chinese Medicine by Abraham Friedman, a history of Syphilis by Ira Freiman, L1 discussion of the importance of Claude Bernard by David Newman, and observations on the practice of obstetrics in the middle ages by Theodore Cohn. Other papers of equal merit were: A History of Neurology by M. B. Rosenblatt, Harvey and His Predecessorsn by H. Corlis, and Vesalius by Natt. There were also excellent papers on Teutonic Medicine, Parc, Semmelweis, and Pasteur. One of our recent meetings was taken up with a symposium on Physical Diagnosis, Freiman telling of Aucnbrugger's role in its development, and Rosenblatt singing the praises of Laennec. These are but a few of the topics we have discussed. Others, too numerous to mention, have dealt alike with the most obscure and the most popular in the history of medicine. As we look back in retrospect we seem to have touched on a thousand and one varied subjects, and then, as we look back a second time, we seem to have neglected an equal number. The store of medical history is a rich one and not easily depleted, and we shall continue our diverting studies after graduation. It is the great desire of those who founded the MEDICAL HISTORY CLUB that it should continue to grow in membership and scope of activity, and in time create an atmosphere of historical medicine among the students which will stimulate them to hecome better acquainted with their predecessors.

Here in the sheltered harbor, The calm that our fathers won, We have no care for the rigors, Of tempest and shrouded sun. No thought of the broken sea ways Our rugged fathers dared, No glint of their vision splendid, N0 joy in the paths they fared. Yet over our long complacence, The journeying winds and sun Are heavy with thrilling rumor Of lighted lands, unwon . . . And over the broken waters, The vision our fathers knew Still waits for its consummation, By hands that will dare to do. O dreams on Z1 night of tempest, O dreams 'neath a shrouded moon, Storm into the sheltered harbor Wl1e1'e you1' rightful children swoon, Snap with your ruthless Hngers The cables that hold us fast, And drive us forth to the tempest, The forgotten quest at last. Gulf us in broken waters, Vfhelm us in perilous seas. Drive us on reefs of disaster, XVhere death is a'clutch at our knees, Pound us on desolate headlands, Grant us no soft surcease, Only in St01'ITl shines the vision, Only in questing is peace. 51833 Spiritual Ole black nigger layin' in the bed, Doc Frank Smithies standin' close beside his head, Doc Frank Smithies and the Angel of Death, . . .

MAN who is damned by his contemporaries has made a great leap toward immortality, for, succeeding centuries, according to Johnson, will be certain to canonize him and point out the blind ignorance of a world just a hundred years younger. But to virtually escape the pasquinades of the critics of one's own time, and to be the glowing subject on the eulogies of their successors is the lot of the gifted few who are beloved of all men. Oliver Wendell Holmes was of this genus, as well as an exemplar of that rarely successful combination of physician and writer. Why the poet, who can see things that men of more ordinary talents overlook, should not be equally expert in solving delicate problems of differential diagnosis must remain a rhetorical question, for the laiety is adamant in its determination not to let those who make its rhymes and stories take its pulse at the same time. Holmes had the desirable training and background for a good doctor, he was practical, keen and capable of assuming responsibility. Born in 1808, he was still able to participate in the humble duties falling to one who is a citizen of a growing country. Not that his nonage was a chronicle of hardships, but he went through a formative period, perhaps no longer an integral part of urban education, which taught him how to do things with his hands as well as his head. From the genetic standpoint the doctor was well endowed, his mother being one of the cleverest women of her times, and his father an unusually astute orthodox preacher. Reverend Holmes, hoping that his son would don the cossack and carry the cross, put him through all the preliminaries of a thorough clerical training. But the lad had such F1110 contact with the profession as to make him elect against it, more from early prejudice than close reasoning. After Hnishing at Andover, he matriculated at Harvard and became a member of that famous class of '29 as he christened it himself. His bachclor's degree having been granted, he was in somewhat of a quandary as to a choice of life work. Not wishing to eliminate the legal profession without giving it a fair trial he studied at the Dane Law School for a year and decided that the bar as well as the pulpit must win others to their stands. After this empirical groping he decided upon medicine as his career, and in 1831 entered james Jackson's private school. First impressions groove lasting pathways and are difficult to eradicate, his Hrst day at medical school drew from his pen this vivid description: There is something very solemn and depressing about the Hrst entrance upon the study of medicine. The white faces of the sick that fill the long rows in the hospital wards saddened me and produced a feeling of awe-stricken sympathy. Holmes was fortunate in falling under the tutelage of able men wherever he studied. After completing two courses of study on this continent, he turned to France for further development. In that country he applied himself assiduously to the task of learning medicine with the help of that great pathologist and diagnostician, Louis, and for two years he worked with as much concentration as life in Paris would allow. In the autumn of 1835, he sailed for home, not from any great desire to begin the practice F1851 of his art, but rather from a serious lack of succoring American dollars and a parental fear of what had become almost a habit of the French, to wit, Revolution. Having established himself in domestic repose, the carefully trained young doctor placed a light and a sign in his window, announcing to his ailing brethren his desire to help them in their ills. This might be construed as the first attempt at illuminated medical advertising but it was doomed to an early failure because of the wayward fist of a tipsy passerby. Holmes never again attempted to light the way to health although it is certain that no better path could have been chosen were one intent upon receiving rational and careful treatment through his illness. Tending to disease was not the facile job Holmes thought it might bc. People were loath, as they are now, to entrust their pneumonias to a youth who perhaps knew enough about treating them, but whose temples were not grey enough to bespeak a sufficiently long experience at tongue-gazing. Not that patients were entirely lacking, but business was never the brisk morning-to-evening, seven-day-a-week affair that only very successful practitioners know. Besides, Holmes had never overcome his early timorousness for the white faces of the sick. Auricular fibrillation in a friend would set his own heart aflutter, and a child's wan face would scare the color from his own cheeks. The doctor, too, had a penchant for the pen. In fact, he had published a volume of poetry while engaged in practice, and the honeyed success with Parnassus was like nectar after drinking one of the decoctions he is famous for having prescribed. In 1838, he turned to the academic side of medicine feeling that he might now write without having to apologize for himself and the profession he followed. During this time he was preparing for the Boylston Prize which he subsequently received, the subject of the paper being, Intermittent Fever in New Englandf, Reflecting the thoroughness of his first medical training, this report on malaria is rich with cases garnered after painstaking search, not only into the recent acquisitions of medical libraries, but also' careful perusal of colonial writings and geneologies. Following this, the doctor busied himself with a series of writings whose text is so delectable, whose Wit is so keen, that the medical man who reads them gives thanks to the training that makes these essays comprehensible. Homeopathy and Its Kindred Delusions was the title of the Hrst of this group of Works. Here Holmes is in his best role, the teacher and the reformer. This was the first real sword-thrust in what was the duel between Homeopathy and legitimate medicine. That such a battle should have ever come into being is only added testimony to the gullibility of the valetudinarian. There is something so unreasonable about the sick mang he will not accept what honest industry and opinion gives him. He seeks the mirage, the irrational and the medicine-man, hence he falls a victim to quackery. But not C011tcI'1t with having thus been brought afield himself, he proceeds to tell others of things he knows nothing about, and soon there is a fad for the particular deception. In truth, people will pay dollars just to be tricked in the same way with the same instrument as the first-fooled. The essay is directed against this spirit, for, at best, homeopathy accomplished as much as a phantom doing infinitely more damage by abstracting good medical care from those who most needed it. Although the work is a model of good writing, never becoming f186j tiresome, it is planned with the precision of a lawyer's brief. Evidence is presented, frauds exposed, fake cures and doctrines exploded and misconceptions corrected with unerring acuteness. The doctor applied part of the self-same homeopathic doctrine in his discussion, by treating like with likeg he ridiculed the ridiculous but his scathing tirades were not administered in such infinitesimal doses as the homeos would have liked. Paragraphs such as these are decisively planted throughout the essay: The first is a supposed illustration of the Homeopathic law found in the precept given for the treatment of parts which have been frozen, by friction with snow or similar means. But we deceive ourselves by names, if we suppose the frozen part to be treated by cold, and not by heat. The snow may even be actually warmer than the part to which it is applied. But even if it were at the same temperature when applied, it never did and never could do the least good to a frozen part, except as a mode of regulating the application of what? of heat. But the heat must be applied gradually, just as food must be given a little at a time to those perishing with hunger. If the patient were brought into a warm room, heat would be applied very rapidly, were not something interposed to prevent this, and allow its gradual admission. Snow or iced water is exactly what is wanted, it is not cold to the part, it is very possibly warm, on the contrary, for these ICFIUS are relative, and if it does not melt and let the heat in, or is IIOIZ taken away, the part will remain frozen up until doomsday. Now the treatment of a frozen limb by heat, in large or small quantities, is not Homeopathy. The next supposed illustration of the Homeopathic law is the alleged successful management of burns, by holding them to the Hre. This is a popular mode of treating those burns which are of too little consequence to require any more efficacious remedy, and would inevitably get well of themselves, without any trouble being bestowed upon them. It produces a most acute pain in the part, which is followed by some loss of sensibility, as happens with the eye after exposure to strong light, and the ear after being subjected to very intense sounds. This is all it is capable of doing, and all further notions of its efficacy must be attributed merely to the vulgar love of paradox. If this example affords any comfort to the I-Iomeopathist, it seems as cruel to deprive him of it as it would be to convince the mistress of the smoke-jack or the flatiron, that the fire does not literally 'draw the ire out,' which is her hypothesis. But if it were true that frost-bites were cured by cold and burns by heat, it would be subversive, so far as it went, of the great principle of Homeopathy. For you will remember that this principle is that Like cures Like, and not that Same cures Same, that there is resemblance and not identity between the symptoms of the disease and those produced by the drug which cures it, and none have been readier to insist upon this distinction than the I-Iomeopathists themselves. For if Same cures Sarne, then every poison must be its own antidote-which is neither a part of their theory nor their so-called experience. They have been asked often enough, why it was that arsenic could not cure thc mischief which arsenic had caused, and why the infectious cause of small-pox did not remedy the disease it had produced, and then they were ready enough to see the distinction I have pointed out. O, no! It was not the hair of the same dog, but only of one very much like him! lf187j A third instance in proof of the Homeopathic law is sought for in the acknowledged efficacy of vaccination. And how does the law apply to this? It is granted by the advocates of Homeopathy that there is a resemblance between the effects of the vaccine virus on a person in health and the symptoms of small-pox. Therefore, according to the rule, the vaccine virus will cure the small-pox, which, as everybody knows, is entirely untrue. But it prevents small-pox, say the Homeopathists. Yes, and so does small-pox prevent itself from ever happening again, and we know just as much of the principle involved in the one case as in the other. For this is only one of a series of facts which we are wholly unable to explain. Small-pox, measles, scarlet-fever, whooping-cough, protect those who have them once from future attacksg but nettle- rash and catarrh and lung fever, each of which is just as Homeopathic to itself as any one of the others, have no such preservative power. We are obliged to accept the fact, unexplained, and we can do no more for vaccination than for the rest. Thus did Holmes figuratively pinch the nose of Homeopathy, the pseudo-science, taking most of its spurious breath away. Even the strongest philoprogenitive instinct will vary. A mother, as often as she denies it, has her favorite song a teacher his favorite pupil, and a writer his best-loved work. Most mothers and many writers, with a sense for the politic, hide this because later works may suffer from previous amatory confessions. Yet, Holmes never con- cealed the fact that his work on puerperal sepsis should be his shot heard round the world. Today, the echo of that famous missile reverberates in the amphitheatres of the colleges, the wards of the hospitals and the outservice of every obstetric clinic in the country. The doctor in the learning process has it drilled into him until he is riddled with the knowledge of upeurperal sepsis and its prevention. The story of the subject is no compliment to the profession in this country or in Europe. Fortunately, popular histories still chronicle the sins of the cleric, the mistakes of the diplomat and the exploits of the militarist, without telling tales about the bovine conservatism of a great part of the medical profession on the particular subject of child-bed fever. Inspection of the cadavers of savages who died a hundred centuries ago yields ready proof that such a thing as septicemia accompanying childbirth was not uncommon even then. Hippocrates described this condition with such clarity as to rival the most lucid writing of recent years on this subject. The modern discussions of this condition date back to the seventeenth century. It was not until 1795, however, that Dr. Gordon of Aberdeen described the state and also attempted to trace its spread. Dr. Gooch is quoted as having said, It is not uncommon for the greater number of cases to occur in the practice of one man, whilst the other practitioners of the neighborhood who are not more skillful or more busy, meet with few or none.', A case is cited in which the physician performed an autopsy on a woman who died of a fever after childbirth. The doctor did not change his clothes but delivered another woman some days after- ward who died of the same condition. Thinking that his clothes may have brought the disease to the second woman, he changed them and never experienced a similar calamity. But it was not the isolated case of puerperal sepsis which summoned the attention of the lay people of the time. Childbearing was a menace, and a woman who entrusted l'l881 herself to thc supposed superior knowledge of a doctor was in greater danger than she who dealt with the midwife. Both were abysmally ignorant of the poisonous peril that lurked in their hands, but the latter was limited in her contacts with the sick whereas the doctor by the mere number of his visits was almost certain, in the tongue of the times, to have something on himf' The assistant in anatomy had ample time to study the state of things while engaged in his didactic affairs, collecting a vast array of indisputable histories which should have sounded the death knell of any false theories on the subject. In 1843, there was published in an obscure, short-lived periodical, namely, The New England Quarterly Journal of Medicine, a paper entitled The Contagiousness of Puerperal Fever. That the paper was not completely overlooked and forgotten in this locus hibernati was due to the dissension it caused. Again, the lawyer, the anatomist and physiologist marshals evidence, this time black and deathly, from the sick chamber of the young mother with the suckling babe at her breast, from the lying-in-hospitals, from the records of countless practitioners. Again the inescapable reasoning born in a bed of perfect logic, coached with a charm of expression fit for the classics, finds its way in a medical report. But the essay was not written as a suitable vehicle for well-turned phrases, or even as a demonstration of latent personal power in polemics. His pen was but a sword whose edge had been sharpened on the heaclstones of those sacrificed on the altar of ignorance and misplaced respect. Wliere in literature is there a more eloquent plea for the unjustly condemned than the final paragraphs of his essay: I have no wish to express any harsh feelings with regard to the painful subject which has come before us. ii :P ii' It is as a lesson! rather than as a reproach that I call up the memory of these irreparable errors and wrongs. No tongue can tell the heart-breaking calamity they have caused, they have closed the eyes just opened up on a new world of love and happinessg they have bowed the strength of manhood into the dust, they have cast the helplessness of infancy into the strangers' arms or bequeathed it, with less cruelty, the death of its dying parent. There is no tone deep enough for regret and no voice loud enough for warning. The woman, about to become a mother, or with her new-born infant upon her bosom, should be the subject of trembling care and sympathy wherever she bears her tender burden, or stretches her aching limbs. The very outcast of the streets has pity upon her sister in degradation, when the seal of promised maternity is pressed upon her. The remorseless vengeance of the law, brought down upon its victim by a machinery as sure as destiny, is arrested in its fall at a word which reveals her transient claim for mercy. The solemn prayer of the liturgy singles out her sorrows from the multiplied trials of life, to plead for her in the hour of peril. God forbid that any member of the profession to which she trusts her life, doubly precious at the eventful period, should hazard it negligently, unadvisedly or seli'ishly. The words of his summary should stand guard at the citadels of health erected to the mothers of all landsg they should be the Genesis of the obstetrician's bible as well as the student's primer in medicine. Reiteration of these principles can never be superfluous. I'1891 1. A physician holding himself in readiness to attend cases of midwifery should never take any active part in the post-mortem examination of cases of Puerperal Fever. It may be well to extend the same caution to cases of simple peritonitis and erysipelas. 2. If a physician is present at such autopsies, he should use thorough ablution, change every article of dress, and allow twenty-four hours or more to elapse before attending to any case of midwifery. 3. It is the duty of the physician to take every precaution that the disease shall not be introduced by nurses or other assistants, by making proper inquiries and giving timely warning of every suspected source of danger. Men of authority, unfortunately, are not always men of reason, although they will sometimes use the strength of the former to pervert the latter. The obstetricians, Hodge the elder, and Meigs, received these discoveries and declarations with the following comments: The result of the whole discussion will, I trust, serve, not only to exalt your views of the value and dignity of our profession, but to divest your minds of the overpowering dread that you can ever become, especially to woman, under the extremely interesting circumstances of gestation and parturition, the minister of evil, that you can ever convey, in any possible manner, a horrible virus, so destructive in its effects, and so mysterious in its operations as that attributed to Puerperal Fever. From Meigs came the following encyclical: I prefer to attribute them to accident, or Providence of which I can form a con- ception, rather than to a contagion of which I cannot form any clear idea, at least as to this particular maladyf' It is easy to pass judgment on men one hundred years after they have spoken, when time has already made transparent many things which then had not been pene- trated by even a ray of light. Bacteriology was unknown, and one might on this account understand Meigs' difficulty with contagion, but even now it is not easy to forgive the blindness of this scientific man who disputed with pure verbiage, the reality of cases of puerperal fever. Meigs was not delicate in his treatment of Holmes, putting the matter at a level where personal affronts were made as to the competency of Holmes, as a member of the Medical profession. The latter, however, had such faultless good taste throughout the controversy that the real issue was not obscured by the cloud of invective rising from a personal combat. To Holmes, Persons are nothing in this matter, better that twenty pamphleteers should be silenced, or as many professors unseated, than that one mother's life should be taken. Hodge and Meigs were really in key positions, as far as Obstetrics were concerned, being the teachers of that subject in two large schools in Philadelphia. Their personal views in the matter did not count for much, since they practised little if at all. Yet their ideas were the pabulum for scores of medical students who would soon be at the bedsides of countless gravida, carrying their poisoned knowledge and fingers to the sick. Alive to the sad truth in this, Holmes admitted, Medical students naturally have faith in their instructors, turning to them for truth and taking what they may choose to give themg babes in knowledge, not yet able to tell the breast from the bottle, f190:I pumping away for the milk of truth at all that offers, were it nothing more than a professor's shrivelled forefingerf' No doubt, Holmes felt deeply the rebuke he had suffered at the hands of these men and he would have liked to treat them with the disdain they had earned. Nevertheless, he contented himself with the following reply: I take no offense and attempt no retort. No man makes a quarrel with me over the counterpane that covers a mother with her new-born infant at her breast. There is no epithet in the vocabulary of slight or sarcasm that can reach my personal sensibilities in such a controversy. 3' ii' ii' The teachings of two professors in the great schools of Philadelphia are sure to be listened to, not only by their immediate pupils, but by the profession at large. I am too much in earnest for either humility or vanity, but I do entreat those who hold the keys of life or death to listen to me also for this once. I ask no personal favor, but I beg to be heard in behalf of the women whose lives are at stake, until some stronger voice shall plead for them. Deriving pleasure from a bitter argument may be entertaining but should not become a pastime, especially where it involves persons. Better to close our eyes to the mistakes of these uncnlightened men, forgetting the whole matter as one of those unpleasant affairs necessary for the growth of any intellectual idea and taking from it only the lesson it teaches. Perhaps medicine has suffered a reaction in the other direction, it is hard to say. Strangely enough, Holmes' work did not settle the matter, for it was reserved to Semmelweis to open the eyes of those who before could not see. An asylum for the insane was the last earthly homage given to that benefactor of his fellowmen after he had spent his life demonstrating the truth in Dr. Holmes' paper. The usefulness of Holmes as a medical teacher was not exhausted with the completion of this one paper. I-Ie continued to write on medical subjects to the delight of all who read him. The lectures in anatomy given at Harvard were always sufficiently stimu- lating to keep tired medical students interested in their work after seven hours of stool-sitting in previous courses. Professor Dwight's description of the older quarters of the Anatomy Department at Harvard should be not a little interesting to present students. He says: The amphitheatre, the seats of which were at a steep pitch, was entered by the students from above, through two doors, one on each side, each of which was approached by a steep stairway between narrow walls. The doors were not usually opened until some minutes after the hour. The space at the top of these stairs was a scene of crowding, pushing, scuffling, and shouting indescribable, till at last a spring shot back both bolts at once, and from each door a living avalanche poured down the steep alleys with an irresistible rush that made the looker-on hold his breath. How it happenedithat during many years no one was killed, or even seriously injured, is incomprehensible. The excitement of the fray having subsided, order reigned until the entrance of the professor, which was frequently the signal for applause. He came in with a grave countenance. His shoulders were thrown back and his face ,bent down. No one realized better than he that he had no easy task before him. He had to teach a branch repulsive to some, difficult for all, and he had to teach it to a jaded class which was unfit to be taught anything. The wooden seats were hard, the backs straight, and f1911 the air bad. Apropos, this state of things Dr. Holmes in his address at the opening of the new school in 1883 said: ' So, when the class I was lecturing to was sitting in an atmosphere once breathed already, after I had seen head after head gently declining, and one pair of eyes after another emptying themselves of intelligence, I have said, inaudible, with the considerate self-restraining of Musidora's rural lover, 'Sleep on, dear youthg this does not mean that you are indolent, or that I am dullg it is the partial coma of commencing asphyxia'. His anatomical descriptions were always direct even if he did borrow metaphor and simile to better impress his students. To him the mesentery was like the shirt ruffles of a preceding generation, or a sweat gland under the microscope, a fairy's intestine. Physiology and anatomy were under the same chair at that time and Holmes is credited with some of the earliest work in the measurement of reaction time of the nervous system. It is not the purpose of this paper to list all of his work in the field of medicine. Suffice it to say that never in all his long life did he lose his early love for the profession. Osler once said of him: He will always occupy a unique position in the affections of medical men. Not a practitioner, yet he retained for the greater part of his active life the most intimate connections with the profession. ii ii' ii The festivals of Epidaurus were never neglected by himg and as the most successful combina- tion which the world has ever seen of the physician and man of letters, he has for years sat amid the Aesculapians in the seat of honor. Many literary achievements have hidden but by no means dwarfed the doctor's work in the special field of medicine. The child going to school makes his first conscious contact with the name of Oliver Wendell Holmes at the end of those early, delightful poems in his second reader, but he has already met the spirit of the man in his first day from the Stygian darkness of early life. Clean hands have lifted him to light and severed his attachment to his mother, but only figuratively for there is an invisible, yet real bond that has been wrought from the chain of evidence on Puerperal Sepsisf' which will keep the mother for her precious offspring until he can at least jocundly read to her The Wonderful One I-Ioss Shay. RALPH M. SUSSMAN. If192j Three Fathers IS boyhood is lost in a dim haze of repression. His ugly fingers, thread-cut and scarred, are mute witness to the sweat shops' strangling grip. The squint of his eyes tells the tale of long hours of study of the Talmud. Heritage and tradition made him a mental automaton and out of the stink of the shops and the drudgery of unrewarded application there arose before him a vision. To it he clung and from it he tore the solace that warmed his heart. Through innumerable years, eternal years, he has transformed himself into a slave that his vision might become a truth. He has taken nothing and given everything. He has shorn himself of every vestment of pleasure. He has remained in ignorance and poverty. He is an atavistic throwback to the serfs of Russia of centuries long dead. He is nothing, will be nothing. He vegetates while he awaits the day! And when it comes his old habits will remain the master and he will live out his life as he has lived it. There will be no advancement for him, no comfort, no surcease. He has been, for a son, the pathway to the Doctorate and the heels grinding upon him have been his only joy. He has given a son to Medicine .... Did Osler do more? Once as a child hc had wanted to be a doctor. His boyhood friends expected he would be a doctor. In their conclaves, the childlike minds would venture into the future and arrange the coming vicissitudes. He would have been a doctor but there were traps and byways that the child had not forseen and by virtue of their strength he was turned aside and Medicine lost him. But on that day when he came to the realization that study was impossible, he vowed that one day, a son, his flesh, his blood, his mind, should wring from the Gods the station he had sought. It has been a fearsome thing, this holding to an oath. No ascetic ever inflicted more fearful punishment upon himself. Through the years, his self-constructed lash fwhich might have been cast aside in a momentj has bitten into his raw, reddened flesh. Witll eyes undimmed, his great heart beating still, he has marched on, with a son the healer of his wounds and the essence and theme of his existence. The roar of the presses never drowns the song of his heart. The cacophony of the mills scarcely is heard against the wild song of triumph he sings. He has given his son to Medicine. Did Hippocrates do more? He graduated in 1900 and has been doing general practice ever since. Funny, but he does not know sixty causes for splenomegaly or the relations of the axillary artery but his patients don't care. His experience has been limited. Two or three thousand deliveries, any number of pneumonias, acute abdomens by the score, measles, scarlet, typhoid, and the cheap run of general practice. He makes diagnoses clinically. He thinks treatment is of importance. In his limited career he has seen several acute yellow atrophies, some placenta praevia, one amaurotic family idiocy. Somehow his patients love him. He puts some of them to sleep with bouillion cubes. Others require the more powerful sacch. lact. He enjoys listening to consultants and surgeons jabber. f193j He knows his experience has been limited. He admits when in doubt, that he needs to study out his case. He has worked hard and earnestly and his oath has been more than words. His practice has been fascinating, but drab in comparison with the observation of the growth and education of the son he has trained to follow in his path. He has given that son to Medicine.

L 1971 Book Five Fraternities V , . . . . I do then with my friends as I do with my books. I would have them where I can ind them, but I seldom use them. NVe must have society on our own terms, and admit or exclude it on the slightest CAUSE. I cannot afford to speak much with my friend. If he is great, he makes me so great that I cannot descend to converse. In the great days pre- sentmcnts hover before me, far before me in the firmament. I ought then to dedicate myself to them. I go in that I may seize themg I go out that I may seize them. I fear only that I may lose them receding into the sky in which now they are only a patch of brighter light. Then, though I prize my friends, I cannot afford to talk with them and study their visions, lest I lose my own. It would indeed give me a certain household joy to quit this lofty seeking, this spiritual astronomy, or search of stars, and come down to warm sympathies with youg but then I know well I shall mourn always the vanishing of my mighty Gods. It is true, next week I shall have languid moods when I can well afford to occupy myself with foreign objects, then I shall regret the lost litera- ture of your mind, and wish you were by my side again .... So I will owe to my friends this evanescent intercourse. I will receive from them, not what they have, but what they are. They shall give me that which properly they cannot give, but which emanates from them. But they shall not hold me by any relations less subtile and pure. We will meet as though we met not, and part as though we parted not .... It is thought a disgrace to love unrequited. But the great will see that true love cannot be unrequited. True love transcends the unworthy object, and dwells and broods on the eternal, and when the poor inter- posed mask crumhles, it is not sad, but feels rid of so much earth, and feels its independency the surer. Yet these things may hardly be said without a sort of treachery to the relation. The essence of friendship is entireness, a total magnanimity and trust. It must not surmise or pro- vide for inlirmity. It treats its object as a God that it may deify both. RALPH WALDO EMERSON.

PROFESSOR THOMSON. This course places before the medical student the various phases of the prac- tice of medicine which have a broad community relationship. Social and medical measures for the control and prevention of venereal diseases are considered, with particular reference to the physician's role in bringing these measures to bear in a community. The dispensary, with its organization as a factor in medical practice, education and service to the poor, is discussed. Medical social service in public and private practice is considered from the point of view of the function of the medical social worker and the utilization of medical social service by the physician. Various other factors of community medicine are touched upon. 301b-MEDICAL CONFERENCE DocToR GENTHNER. One conference and quiz period is held weekly for the purpose of discussing the cases which have been demonstrated throughout the week. 105C-APPLIED ANATOMY. Demonstrations and Lectures Q44 Hoursj. PROFESSOR Vossnusn AND DRS. WIKLE AND CAMPBELL. Anatomical facts are discussed from the point of view of their application to practical problems met by the physician and surgeon. Their surgical, obstetrical, medical, and diagnostic applications are emphasized by the use of lantern slides, preserved specimens, and demonstrations on the cadaver. Important points are taught practically to small sections of the class. lf2161 A ,f gp QC' :Q , ' 0 - :nv H I aiigfruf. .r . Q32 ' ANTICIPATION TRKNSPORTATION Q-OQFQP' RSCA , QW?

Its esoteric nature forbids further revelations of its machinations. Sufiice it to state, that far reaching and world stirring discoveries are being made daily by its laudable members. A A dark veil of mystery is draped over its birth and its life up to the present time, yet from its inmost sanctuary come vague rumblings of startling metamorphoses which are on the wings of the lightning. The passage of one of the brothers through the halls of the buildings is accompanied by doffing of hats and deep salaams by even the mightiest. The names of the minds responsible for its development remain forever secret by virtue of an oath sworn in solemn conclave at their first meetings. Here are portrayed only the lesser satellites of the group. Hail to them and hail in Waltz time to the unseen men who are the dynamic element of association. Many subsidiaries of this chief group have sprung up. Chief among them is T. N. S. F. G. The future will hear more from newer aggregations which are arising like mushrooms. The curtain of time is dropping on the end of the first act of T. N. S. F. A. and as it falls there echoes, from the brothers who are departing with '31, the ancient cry of the fraternity, ' Quo Vadis Milki Magnesiae Honi soit qui mal y pense. lf2191 Senior PEDIATRICS Pretty stuff that the poet sings, Something sweet in the mist blown past.

He is a strange paradox, for while he possesses no official connection with '31, he is as much a part of it as its most ardent booster. No Long Island man can escape him. He gives to students the rudder of the ship they steer through four years. He is a man of commerce who owns a thousand friends who are professional men. Many a time and oft' have members of '31 found him a rock of refuge. He has gracefully smoothed some rough hours and he has been a source of cheer in moments of duress. The store of books over which he is guardian has always been at the disposal of the student. '31 takes this opportunity to convey its gratitude. By virtue of the power granted us we hereby confer upon Samuel Marcus, his heirs and assigns, the honorable and ancient title of, Doctor of Credit. 52371 Baiiacie to Hoaglancl's Guinea Pigs To R.

Il1ciz1'c'11c'r'-Tlie disease, according to authorities, has been found to exist only in Brook- lyn. It affects chiefly one group of men each year. Age, race, general well being, and social status have no bearing. Men and women are affected alike. Efiology-The theory of auto-infection has been discarded by those best acquainted with the syndrome. It is said by present suierers that one year after the disease has abated the etiological factor suddenly dawns upon those who have been through a course. Latest work indicates that a profound phobia underlies the onset and that in its acute stages the hysteria-like nature of the disease hints of a central nervous system reaction to whatever is the essential cause. Morbid lllmfomy-Tlie disease rarely proves fatal and hence little is known of the lesions it produces. In this connection it should be noted that fatalities occur about four weeks after the last exacerbation and in those cases in which a fatal OUICOITIC was the result, no trace of the bodies could be found. Symplomafology-Symptoms are legion. Each victim has his own reactions. Among these are amnesia, aphasia, nervous twitchings, syncope, and extreme collapse. One or all may occur in the same case. One patient who lapsed suddenly into delirium was heard muttering over and over again, Cecil and Genthner, Cecil and Genthner- Physical examination including oesophagoscopy, cystoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, electro- cardiagraph, GI series, colon enema, bronchoscopy, is negative. Prognosis-Good. DiFPVL'llfillI Diaguoxix-Any attempt to differentiate is superfluous. There is no con- dition known which even distantly resembles it. Trc'aimeJ1i-In view of the reaction which occurs when the words blue books are mentioned in the presence of a patient, all such volumes should be destroyed. Treatment for shock and syncope is as usual. Up to the present time, the skin of sheep applied liberally has given the best results. f241j Acknowledgment DR. ALFRED c. BECK His advice and guidance were of inestimable value. The sincere interest he dis- played in the Lichonian was a source of inspiration to those actively engaged in its production. ' MR.L.M.BULLE A representative of the Canton Engraving Company whose hand is indelibly stamped throughout these pages and from whom came the original suggestions as to its form, construction, and development. MISS BESSIE. ELLINSON The splendid co-operation of White Studios was the direct result of her courteous dealings with the staff. LESTER COHEN '32 Despite the rigors of the junior curriculum he shouldered the entire financial bur- den of the Lichonian and produced, single handed, what in previous years has been the work of six men. MR. ROBERT W.
