IQ PROFESSOR AND FRIEND 5 5 HAVE LIVED wth three generations in my associations with the Long Island College Hos- pital and the Long Island College of Medicine, with the pioneers of the Nineteenth Century- the history makers, with the succeeding generation who accepted these theories, correlated and put them into practice in teaching and clinical application and with the oncoming group who will still further classify, clarify and extend these teachings by research and clinical investigation and open new fields of medicine. The rather slipshod general attitude of forty years ago has given way to teaching methods for the under- graduate body which insure, at the completion of the four year course, a far better fundamental understand- ing than could possibly be acquired from years of general practice. Medicine during this period has without doubt Houn- dered considerably and is still under scrutiny but, in my opinion, it is gradually finding itself. LICHONIAN Eight The outstanding change which has taken place during this period is the definite separation of the college and the hospital which has allowed an unat- tached college administration to devote itself entirely to the interests of the educational problem. Next in line is the construction of the Polak labratory, a complete unit which was sorely needed. The completion of the L. I. C. H. building added considerably to the clinical material available. One of the most important changes is the affiliation with the County Hospital which places 500 additional beds at our disposal for clinical teaching. The Long Island College of Medicine has, in twenty years, emerged from a place in which to listen to didactic lectures on medicine, with hardly any oppor- tunity for contact with practical applications, to an institution in which every student has an opportunity to not only visualize but to take a personal part in the examination, diagnosis and treatment of all phases of medicine and surgery. While not a graduate of the Long Island College of Medicine, I am proud to have been associated with it for so many years. I have seen about 3500 stu- dents come and go. Among these have been many who have reached distinc- tion and, I am sure, but few who have not added to its prestige and to the public welfare. To those who have reached the zenith of their power and must lay down the active participation of administration I am sure the student body may look for encouragement, guidance and cooperation. The future belongs to the younger handsg I am sure you can safely trust them. What is most needed is the loyal and active cooperation of the alumni body. Through this medium it is possible to secure funds for still greater expansion of our educational facilities for the use of those to come. No graduate need be ashamed of his Alma Mater. There is no institution in the world that during the same period can boast of producing better doctors and better men.

I welcome the opportunity offered by the members of the Editorial Board of the 'Lichonian' to bring my greetings a d best wishes. Recently, I came across the following quotation from Seneca. From it, it is evident that he was commenting on the fashionable students of Imperial Rome, whose work was of a less vital nature than that of the students of medicine today. Yet, there is a sufficient universality of intellectual and emotional constitution to make the quotation of current interest: 'What then,' you say. 'do we not know certain men who have sat for many years at the feet of a philosopher and yet have not acquired the slightest tinge of wisdom?' Of course I know such men. There are indeed persevering gentlemen who stick at itg I do not call them pupils of the wise, but merely Usquatters.' Certain of them come to hear and not to learn. just as we are attracted to the theatre to satisfy the pleasures of the ear, whether by a speech, or by a song, or by a play. This class, as you will see, constitutes a large part of the listeners,- who regard the philosopher's lecture-room merely as a sort of loung- ing-place for their leisure. They do not set about to lay aside any faults there, or to receiye a rule of life, by which they may test their charactersg they merely wish to enjoy to the full the delights of the ear. And yet some arrive even with notebooks. not to take down the matter, but only the words, that they may present- ly repeat them to others with as little profit to these as they themselves received when they heard them. A certain number are stirred by high-sounding phrases, and adapt themselves to the emotions of the speaker with lively change of face and mind - just like the emasculated Phrygian priests who are wont to be roused by the sound of the flute and go mad to order. But the true hearer is ravished and stirred by the beauty of the subject matter, not by the Jingle of empty words.' As students of medicine, we trust that you are 'ravished and stirre not only by the beauty of the subject matter, but by the appreciation of the social importance of the effect of your learning. We wish you 1iveS of 1121995- ness and satisfaction, both as undergraduate and as gnaduate students of medicine. Sihcerely yours, 414 64:5-6wffT f' F.

What though we faltered, and our eyes went blind, As pillowed on a stone we sank to rest? Yet has the guerdon called us, and we rose To follow onward till we came to die I-Iemmed by the dark walls of an earthy close Witless of sunlight, and the racing sky. Fair was the quest, although the quest was vaing Yet was it vain that, all unsatished, We sought the wide world mid the sun and rain For something nobler than ourselves, and died? When sunset dims, and lifels short play is through, Shall we be less than the high dreams we knew? WADE OLIVER Wade W.

We might say of Dr. Oliver what Mitchell said of Sir John Hill, the poet-physician: For physics and farces, His equal there scarce is, His farces are physics, His physics a farce is. We were next to meet Dr. Jean Oliver. Whatever good may be said of any man, will never fail to find something of its counterpart in bad. Dr. Oliver was singular in this respect, for he has the distinction of winning the unanimous respect and admiration of every class that meets him. He represents a certain majestic grandeur of the intellect . . . honest, noble, and sincere. The clarity and methodical treatment of his lectures has become common knowledge at the college and the friendly sternness of his demeanor was very apparent . . . but through the rigidity of it all one noticed the signs of kindness, of friendliness, of indulgence. There was never a note of coercion, of iron-rule teaching in the conduct of his course and yet every class was aware of a self-imposed obligation to attend every lecture and note every word. And here both by similarity and contrast we are led to that other great luminary who was to help guide us through the remaining years of school. Again we speak of order and method when we come to Dr. Beck . . . order in lectures and in the conduct of a course . . . but here was an order that was unmistakable and stern. An order that must be accepted, an order that made conformists of us all, for a hundred distinct and different personalities quivered and shivered as one. For non-conformity the world whips you with its displeasure. And therefore a man must know how to estimate a sour face. It took three years to learn how to estimate Dr. Beck. Though never, as time went on, did one catch a note of friendliness or humility of spirit, it became increasingly evident to us that Dr. Beck submerged any softness or flexibility in his carriage in order to be certain to attain results with those he taught. That he accomplishes this has become an aphorism. He has succeeded in making of obstetrics almost the every thought of the conforming student, a place it does not hold in many another eminent medical school. With us it is our joy and pride as well as our misery and apprehension. It was from the very first that we came to know Dr. Warren, and had many a contact with him through our three years. With his passing, little has been left unsaid of his greatness. He was truly a great man and a source of inspiration to many a student who listened attentively to his wisdom and watched, wide-eyed, his handling of patients while attending them. Vigor, enthusiasm, keen penetrating eyes, a springy step, and an alert mind were the attributes in Dr. Warren that the student noted and hoped to emulate. In his passing we sustained a great loss. Our third year surgery was enlightening and presented a contrast of two great personali- ties . . . the one, stately, tall, well-dressed, brilliant . . . the other, jovial, short, stout, neat, and abounding in experience . . . Dr. Goetsch and Dr Barber. Here again it took time and maturity for us to thoroughly evaluate these two men. In the third year we were as ready to be amused as taught, with the result that we realized both. As time went on and the medical embryo mind evolved to greater maturity in the fourth year, the former junior regard for Dr. Goetsch turned to senior respect, esteem, and admiration. For not only did he dignify the bedside clinic with his appearance and not only did he inspire clarity in thinking, but he also flavored the moments by an occasional jest, which demonstrated a more than usual sense of humor and ability to amuse. Twenty Speaking of Surgery, we cannot fail to pay the highest tribute to Dr Thomas M Brennan Dr Brennan IS an exception to the generality we remarked at the outset, namely that w1th the maturity and ripening of our wits and our judgment came a changing of views, of concepts, and of opinions about people and things The very first contact with Dr Brennan seems to strike a note of admiration, of interest, of respectful affection He at once wins the heart as well as the mind One finds that as time goes on, this opinion does not change or grow dim but with every contact grows stronger for Dr Brennan truly represents the aristocracy of the intellect, the quintessence of the gentleman scholar In describing the word gentleman, Ralph Waldo Emerson said, and lf finds Great usefulness here, It is a spontaneous fruit of talents and feelings of precisely that class who have most vigor, who take the lead in the world of this hour It is made of the spirit, more than of the talent of men, and 1S a com pound result in which every great force enters as an ingredient, namely virtue, Wlt, beauty wealth, and power And Oliver Wendell Holmes, in one of his beautiful sonners, seems to speak most eloquently for the consensus of student opinion about Dr Brennan Thoughtful in youth but not austere 1n age Calm but not cold, and cheerful though a sage, Too true to flatter, and too lxlfld to sneer, And only just, when seemingly severe, So gently blending courtesy and art That wisdom s lips seemed borrowing fr1endsh1p s heart We speak of lookmg back, of retrospecting, of reviewing the past Nowhere is one more rewarded in this than 1n ,ump1ng, in the mind s eye, the gap between the first and fourth years, a distance of three years chronolog1cally but for what it wrought in the evolution of a medical embryo, in terms of the evolution of man it spanned more than three generations Entering the race were a motley crew of uncouth creatures, each perhaps with a strange brand of char for somehow inadvertently and imperceptibly there creeps over the entering freshman the feeling that he has entered an 1nsr1tut1on and an organization where he IS asked to abide by everything, Question nothing and express no views The art1st1c eye could soon see this enter ing group as a collect1on of small soft particles, as motes of dust dancing quietly and harm lesslv in a sunbeam Anv professor who enjoys engaging a student in good natured and casual conversation while walkincf to and fiom the school, well knows that almost inspired reticencc. with wh1 h the student partitipatcs in the remarks and well recognizes that sort of expiratory grunt which IS meant as a little laugh of approval to almost everything which IS sa1d, whether it be funny serious, or of no consequence Any other response would probably be looked upon as a stroke of genius And ver in the space of those few short years, a Prognathus becomes an Apollo, and from the thorns there sprouts a rose Individuals evolve with personalities and radiance Thev did not evolve but rather emerge from under a cloak of 1nh1b1t1ons that made restraint appear like poverty of thought With the begmmnfr of the fourth vear and the splitting of the class 1nto small groups the pro ess of making these men of those mice had begun Fortunately for us, the faculty men who conduct the last mile, as it were, of this journey are men of the greatest brilliance, the most sterling characters and the highest eminence that the school can boast The p1ty IS that we do not meet them sooner CC011l772Zl66l7 011 Page 1785 Twenty and ' 9 , .

BECK An Inspiring Teacher A Splendid Physician And A Staunch Friend OF 1937 ALFRED C. BECK R. BECK was born in Toledo, Ohio, on july 16, 1885, the son of john and Mary Beck. He spent his childhood in Toledo and after being graduated from High School he entered the University of Michigan, where he received his M.D. Degree in 1910. At this time he entered on a stern resolve never to practice obstetrics and to leave this branch of medicine to others, who might like to get up in the middle of the night. Two years later, after completing his internship, he was licensed in Michigan and had already decided that, much as he would have preferred a quiet practice with regular hours, obstetrics was the field in which he would pass his life and practice his art . In 1916 he married Rhea B. Bennett of Conneaut, Ohio, and a short time later came East and settled in Brooklyn, aligning himself with the then rising star of Dr. John O. Polak. His rise here was rapid and after a few years he became head of the Long Island College Outdoor Clinic, a position second in rank only to that of the Professor . I-Ie remained in this post until Dr. Polak's death, in 1930, and succeeded him to the Chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Beck is very well known and widely appreciated for his ability to teach obstetrics. To those of us who have sat under him, and collected our just share of zeros, he rates as the epitome of tutorial ability, the man who could make any subject clear and any situation vivid. His graduates have gone out into practice with a full appreciation of the values and problems of delivery and years afterward, his illustrations remain as practical and vivid as if they had been made but yesterday. Of late Dr. Beck has been growing alarmed by the unhealthy effect the economic situa- tion has had on medical practice and, never a one to sit back and let things take their course, except in the normal labor, he has tried to get to the root of the problem by offering his counsel to those of us who are just starting out. He has aided and advised us in the securing of intern- ships, for in the interne years are our real careers molded. With this in view, he has been working on a plan whereby the school will place men in interne positions and supervise their training and will thus be able to vouch for and sponsor its own men when they enter into practice. Our appreciation for Dr. Beck, as a teacher, as a doctor and as a man, knows no bounds. We wish him good health and many more years of active and full practice. Twenty-tlaree LICHONIAN LUTHER I FISKE WARREN ISS5-1937 sat in the amphitheatre listening to the first case presentation of my medical career. With a jolt, I started and removed myself from the enthusiasm that was already growing on me, but before I could spurt out an answer, which probably would have been wrong anyway, the answer was coming my way: You and I both know, doctor, that the lesion is located . . . , said the same piercing, sharp voice which spoke not only from knowledge, but from experience. I felt relieved because I did not have to be made the fool before the entire group, but, also I felt quite professional when Dr. Warren took me in as a confrere and gave me credit for something I didn't know. 7 HAT DO YOU THINK, DOCTOR?,' The finger pointed in my direction, as I Those nervous strides, the sharp intonations in his voice, and the non-purposeful move- ments that his stethescope was put through during a demonstration will always make for remernberance of the personality of our professor. Alert, neat, exact and aristocratic in bear- ing, energetic in all his undertakings and sincere in all his work, he concentrated all his efforts so that he might be a better teacher and we better informed and thus better doctors. A dy- namic individual many called him. Yes! A dynamic individual with no end to his energy, Luther Fiske Warren, professor of medicine and director of the Medical Department of the Long Island College of Medicine, died at his home, 81 Pierrepont Street, Brooklyn, on january 18, 1957, aged 51 years.

EVANS, appointed Professor of Ophthalmology for the beginning of the fall term of 1935, graduated from Long Island College Hospital in 1916 and began his medical career as a general interne in the Bushwick Hospital in the sarne year. The opportunity which started him on his eye career occurred when the ear-nose-and-throat men, who were Canadians, left for the war. Doctor Evans was assigned to a special interneship in eye work-a rare thing at that time. After a brief fling at general medicine and contract surgery for the government, he began a study of the phenomena of Ophthalmology. His time of practice has been a continuous drive toward practical advance- ments in his chosen field. His work soon stamped him as an outstanding specialist. The progressive phase of the affable doctor's work has been concerned chiefly with clinical research. In all, he has contributed approximately sixty original articles to the literature. The laboratory has engaged his time Well. The innumerable addresses before ophthalmologic and allied societies attest to his prominent position. ,His chief hobby has been, and is scototomy and the work done by him in this phase has attracted international attention, especially in England. Doctor Evans began his long list of publications shortly after graduation from Long Island. His interest in scototomy manifested itself as early as 1925 when his first paper on the subject appeared. Field studies based on clinical observation and experience soon formed the bulk of his work. Accurate and thoroughly complete records enabled him to construct informative graphs. The finesse of his practitioner's art attracted patients from far and wide with all varieties of ocular lesions, and thus provided fruitful material for his brilliant deduc- Twenty-Six OF 1937 tions. Numerous clinics, chief among which is the Brooklyn Eye and Ear Hospital, also supplied an abundant source from which to draw. The American Journal of Ophthalmology has printed many of his treatises, as has the Archives of Ophthalmology and other leadingg medical and ophthalmological journals. Running scototomy a close second in Doctor Evans' interests is the new system of ophthal- molgic education which he has brought to Long Island. This plan has attracted the attention of leading men interested in the advancement of the field, and accordingly Doctor Evans has prepared for publication the method of his administration. This system of student and gradu- ate instruction is original, and its conception probably marks a brilliant future for eye patients of Brooklyn and vicinity, for it means that graduates from this institution who decide to spe- cialize in this line will have a foundation equivalent to the most thorough training under rigid and competent instruction. It consists essentially in a division of labor, with the instructors advancing in knowledge as well as the students. All students are taught by Doctor Evans, and are divided into groups of six for conference and quiz purposes. In charge of these groups are staff members, fellows, residents and internes. Each of the latter positions is obtained by fulfilling standard requirements, applicants are chosen according to ability after an informal interview with Doctor Evans. who is the Ophthalmologist-in-chief of the Hospital. The two fellowships are granted to young men who intend to practice in Brooklyn, with the purpose of rounding them out sufficiently to pass the exams of the American Board of Ophthalmology. All these instructors are under the eye of the chief,' for their advancement in special courses, as: pathology of the eye, optics, physiology, neurology, medicine, and particularly, research. The success of the student course can best be attested by the extravagant praise of the Seniors, the future will witness its cerain fruition.

Twenty-Setfeaz LICHONIAN SIMON NIEYWER CHESS 1878-1936 IMON MEYER CHESS was born in Russia, February 14th, 1878. He received his early education in the schools of Odessa and came to America at the age of nineteen. Shortly after his arrival in this country, he entered the Columbia College of Pharmacy from which he graduated in 1905. He was actively engaged in the drug business for several years. In 1908, he decided to study Medicine and matriculated at The Long Island College Hospital. He received his Degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1912. He served his internship at the Paterson General Hospital and took a -special course in Physical Diagnosis with Dr. Cabot at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He began the active practice of Medi- cine late in 1914 and from then on, was associated with the College and with the Hospital until his death on October 14th, 1936. Dr. Chess was a member of the Medical Society of the County of Kings for many years and of the Brooklyn Medical Society. He was also associated with many social and benevolent organizations. He is survived, bv his Wife and three children. One of his sons, Dr. Rudolph Chess, is also a graduate of The Long Island College of Medicine, Class of 1929, and is now associated with the College and Hospital.

He is survived by a daughter, Mrs. A. Simler, and a son, Dr. Samuel Potter Bartley who also took his degree here, and is now carrying on the family tradition as assistant clinical professor in surgery. Dr. E. H. Bartley's whole life was wrapped up in his work. He gave himself unstintingly to every phase of medicine. His capabilities were more than sufiicient for the many tasks to which he applied himself. He will be missed most by those who knew him best. R. B. ,39 A lVlAN'S PRAYERH Make me live My mighty Master, Such a life as men should know, Tasting triumph and disaster, joy-and not too much of woe, Give me such a heart, to love and laugh, So, if you call I'll never fear it Then may this be my epitaph. Here lies one who took his chances In life's busy world of men, Battled fate and circumstances Fought and fell, and fought again! Won sometimes, but did no crowing, Lost sometimes, but didn't wail, Took his beating, but kept going Never let his courage fail L He was fallible and human, Therefore loved and understood Both his fellow-man and woman. Whether good or not-so good. Kept his spirit undiminished, Never failed to help a friend, Plaved the game till it was finished, Lived a soortsman to the end. 5. CARLYLE FAHLSWORTH STRAUB. N aw York Time.: Fall 1927. Thirty CHARLES A WEYMULLER HIS year Dr Charles A Weymuller was appointed professor and cxecutive ofhcer of the department of pediatrics We dropped in to see him in the childrens ward of the hospital the other day We wanted his opinion on the importance of a sound knowledge of pediatrics to the general practitioner also we were interested in any changes he might be planning regarding the pediatrics course itself The general practitioner Dr Wcymuller told us should know a great deal of pediatrics A few years ago the journal of the A M A ran a survey on the types of patients that required medical attention The survey reported that 7092 of a doctors cases were ailing children that 50W of his house calls were to sick children Even more important for the general practi tioner is the fact that in SO? of children s sicknesses the condition can be handled medically there is no need for surgery or orthopedics If then so much of pediatrics falls n the sphere of the general practitioner W asked why is pediatrics a specialty? Pediatrics the doctor replicd IS internal medicine with an age limit And the age factor subdivides it even further the new born infancy childhood and adolescence Here are four distinct groups their problems are different, their standards very individual The pediatrician must have exact knoyx ledge about all four of these groups The internist has only one age division adulthood to care for of a century ago it was not publicized Its rise to importance has been a slow evolution the public has been educated to the idea it is prophylactic conscious now every baby has a spec ialist As a result of this scientific care of younfvsters the mortality for children has dropped from 147 to 37 Der 1000 in these two decades We asked the doctor about the new health center whether it might lower the incidence of the contagious diseases of childhood He could not answer definitely because the final plans of the health center program are as yet unknown but he feels that it is a valuable agency a steb in the right direction Why did you pick pediatrics' we asked him Well its a fascinating field Because of the children themselves? No, Dr Weymuller replied at least you ll never get a pediatrician to admit it The teal appeal of this age group is its physical response to treatment The results of proper care are so marked and so gratifying As far as the pediatrics course itself is concerned Dr Weymuller made no official state ment He remarked that there would probably be changes in the curriculum and method of teaching at least for the third year class I don t want to make pediatricians of all of you he concluded I want you to be well prepared though to handle many of the problems of pediatrics I want you to see the whole field to respect it to know when and where to call for help To the class of 39 and the classes that follow we promise that you will like Dr Wey mullet You will rind him easily approachable excellently grounded in his field and anxious to give his students as much as he can R B 39 Thr ty O12 N K .

At last the day we have IF eagerly awaited has dawned. Our daily trudge to school shall be no more and yet, we are just begin- ning. I can remember my graduation from gram- mar school when my teachers told us we were graduates and now held an advantage over other less fortunates of our generation. I entered high school and found I was just beginning and was quite a common example of American youth. Those four years passed and a high school alumnus was god-sped as someone to notice. When college opened, in the fall of '29, I was back in the familiar seat of just beginning. Four years of culture and science were added to my portidge of knowl- edge and the result was a Bachelor of Science. Now, indeed, I had attained my goal. But, my inner man guided my vocation to the healing art and, when the opening ceremonies began at Long Island that year, lf was sitting all agog and marvelling at the dignity of our Faculty, while just beginning. Without further ado we were ushered into the Anatomy laboratory and told to find the Pectorales Muscles. With trembling hands we withdrew the oilskin cover and our Medical career was launched. Then came Physiology, Chemistry and Neuroanatomy in breath-taking succession. Friends consoled us with the advice that the first year is the hardest but the second year was a continuation of the first at the same pitch. Our Class Ship bravely hoisted the main- sails and weathered that storm. The third year with its lectures, quizzes, clinics, and what-next forced us to barren down the hatchesl' but we sailed into the calm seas of the fourth year with blue skies and sails unfurlecl. Now we stand on the bridge watching the shores to see what our new-found land promises. We are again just beginning but, now we are Doctors. We know we must reap the harvest of our crops by dint of honest toil. We have had a joyous voyage together. A certain portion of worry, our quota of disap- pointment, some disagreeable experiences, to be sure, but on the main we have been a care- free, well nurtured group. To those who have shared this eventful period with me I am eternally indebted. Friendships have arisen that will endure for the extent of our stay on this mortal soil. The class officers and senior members of the Student Council have borne the brunt of administrative and executive problems in a cooperative and self-sacrificing manner. The members of the Lichonian staff have labored and worried for the success of this book. Now that is over and we part on individual, though for the most part common, paths, let us continue to cooperate and exist as a class. We are all convinced that, as a class, there has been none better but, we must convince the Faculty, underclassmen, and alumni. We owe a tremendous debt to our parents, friends, and the faculty. We have an obliga- tion to society in general. We have privileges and powers which only select mortals are per- mitted to share with God and Mother Nature. Let us put these attributes to fruitful use by being good Doctors. GEORGE F. LOEHFELM Thirty-Jive LICHONIAN GONE WITH THE YEARS And now we've done it- Finally, after years of weary grind, Of laden eyes and worried faces, Hungry for the pure joy of life free from care, Years of misery interrupted occasionally With bright moments of hope and laughter, Like swords flashing in the brilliant sun's glareg We've done it.

LICHONIAN THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF l937 OUR years ago we convened, one hundred and seven strong, to be welcomed to the study of medicine by Dean Miller and Dr. Babbott. Every fibre of our beings thrilled to the words of the Hippocratic Oath, which was to be our guide and our creed for the remainder of our lives. We left the opening exercises filled with ambition and high purpose and feeling that warm glow which comes to those who belong. Medicine stretched ahead of us and we faced it with upraised eyes and smiling faces. The study of Anatomy brought us down from the clouds to the stern realities of existence, for we came to know suffering and fear. Week on week of solid work dulled our senses and we learned futility, for, no matter how much we worked, or how long we studied, the elusive figure of the schedule seemed to keep just ahead of us. A box of bones and a book became as familiar to us as our own rooms. We tried, in vain, to master them, but the more we studied the more we found we didn't know. Already, some of our comrades had given up the struggle, but for the rest, it was work, work and more work. After our first Christmas vacations we began to realize that the pace was set by our own endeavors and that if we took our time we could slow it down. With this knowledge we began to have time to breathe and the acquisition of medical knowledge seemed more attainable. About this time we began to be split up into two sections and the fine unity, which charac- terized our first days, began to disintegrate. The boys of section two, aghast at statistics on the physical fitness of the class ahead of us, decided to take some outside exercise and, under the guidance of Kelmenson and Katona, the Feel Our Rippling Muscles Club was formed, to play hockey and other games in our free time. The last trimester of the first year is probably the easiest portion of the medical career and well it may be, for it is the spring of a hard winter. Taking advantage of our newly found freedom we began to ride and for several weeks groups of boys betook themselves to Prospect Park and galloped or trotted, as the case might be, with varied success, but fun for all. The trimester ended with happiness everywhere which was soon to be shattered by the announce- ment of the grades for the first year. For some the grades meant a happy, free summer, for others it meant Anatomy in the heat and under the fear of failure. For still a third, luckily small, group, the grades meant the end of medicine. The second year started, with bronzed faces and hopes for great things amid what seemed to be a continuous procession of brown bottles and evenings in Bacteriology. New faces joined us and filled the places of those who were no longer with us. Work and play went merrily on, not too easy and not too hard. The Cafeteria and the Donellon House made their appearance and we learned leisure and good living. Soon a trimester was passed and we were initiated into the mysteries of Obstetrics, Pathology and Neuro-pathology. We learned to crawl a bit, but we were far from walking. Came the Spring and Applied Anatomy and twenty pages a day. Our memories did prodigious service and astounded us with their exactness on certain occasions and their vagaries on others. By now we had learned the secret of relaxation and every week we went to the Wood-Harmon Tract and, as members of Mrs. Seguin's Horsey- Totsey Nine, played baseball for an afternoon. Came again the day of reckoning and more of us were sorrowed by thoughts of summer studies and a few more faces departed never to return. Tbivtv-eight The summer between the second and thrrd years was spent 1n many ways Some felt that an amassrng of cl1n1cal tramrng would be helpful for the year to come, others felt that money would be most vtluable and strll others were of the oprmon that a good rest was the most rmportant flllflff they could have Each of us passed hrs t1me accordmg to hrs own lwhts and, rn the fall, some 90 of us assembled for the hardest year of our careers We had l1ttle t1me for levrty and as a result, our former reserve went by the boards Now, a tive mrnute recess between lectures was the srgn for the begmnrnv of a revrval meetrng or some other type of horse play Whrte coats and stethescopes lent us a professlonal drgnrty and we rnvaded the chnrcs armed wrth knowmg looks and open mrnds Lecture followed lecture untrl the very seats rn Polhemus seemed to be a part of us Tome followed tome, never mastered but always srudred Durrng the thrrd year Bob Gromet concerved the rdea of 1 junror Folhes, a Hnal bust up after the cxammarrons, a srgn to the world that we, havrng completed the Junror exams, felt ourselves to be almost doctors Wrth Brll Console as Charrman, the play commrttee went 1nto actron and trred to crowd 1nto an already overloaded day the task of wrrtrng a play Stagger mg under our loads, t1me passed us raprdly and rt came nearly t1me for examrnatrons, Hfteen Ccount emh rn two weeks February was a farrly sane month March saw the bevrnnrng of the pan1c Aprrl saw the terror mountrng hrgher and hrgher and the hollows deepenrng unde jumor eyes Frnally the examrnatrons came around and all too soon, rn restrospect, but oh so long rn realrty, the exammatron perrod was passed Then we entered 1nto the study of our specra tres whrch no one took serrously and 1nto the ptoducrron of our play at whrch we mrsgrvrngs, proved to be a huge success Early rn une we recerved our brggest shock wrth the publrcatron of the junror grades The largest part of the class fell by the ways1de rn one course or another A few, some of whom we had expected to carry off honors, found themselves unable to advance wrth the class, and the e was more woe amongst us Durrnv the summer we agarn went our s parate ways some to enrrch rherr cl1n1cal knowledge as subsntute rnternes, others to recoup therr fortunes and make provrsron for the rncreases rn rurtron and strll others to camps and summer resorts to reburld therr shattered health The start of the Senror year found us happy again but now only erghty three Broken up mto ffroups, we saw l1ttle of the bulk of the class Clrnrcal work fascrnated us and made each month seem short New personalrtres strmulated our mrnds and opened up avenues wc had never dreamed of We began to have some confidence rn our clrnrcal abrhty and 1n the knowledge we had trred to garn rn the Iunror Year Interneshrps became our problem and amrd wrld scramblrng and sometrmes, not too gentlemanly seekrng, most of us secured places for ourselves rn I-Iosprtals Fear agam cropped up, but thrs t1me rt was a real terror, for, when the Student Health Servrce started takrnv chest plates, students began to leave The horror of havmg to grve up, at almost the flnrsh, all we had worked for durxng the past years left most of us rn '1 funk and made lt drfhcult for us to hnd out the truth Our relref on lcarnrng we were nevatrve was boundless Erghty one strong C81 survrvors out of 1185 we are ready for our degrees, ready to face the world wrth zest and convrcnon Alma Mater, we brci thee farewell' Tbnfy uma O F 1 9 3 7 . .

C s HE writing of a Senior Section is always attended with much difhculty. When one considers that it must con- sist of over ten thousand words, each of which must mean something, its difficulty becomes almost insur- mountable. In the writing of these little articles we have tried to adhere to the principle that in the worst of us there is much which is good and that in all of us there is a fair and just share of the bad. To this end we have consciously avoided most of the things which would be unpleasant and all of the things which are bad in taste and have confined ourselves to trying to bring out the better side of each individual. We may have failed miserably in many cases, but we offer the excuse that too few hands went into the making of the bulk of this pie. We may be accused of being too sugary in our comments, but in this we ask each one to judge us only on the strength of his own individual write-up. We may be accused of being too confident of the medical futures of most of our colleagues, but we truth- fully feel that, given the necessary breaks most of us will be successful healers. With these thoughts we present to you, the Senior Class. THE EDITORS. VINCENT JOSEPH BARONE, B.S. Vin is one of our most unusual members. To most of us he remained a mystery for three years and we found ourselves faced with a pleasant young man who for some reason seemed to prefer solitude to company. Last year, at the junior Frolics, it was our pleasure to hear him play a group of gypsy numbers on his violin and we then under- stood the why and wherefore of his apparent love of solitude. Vin has his own personal system and in this system everything must be done accord- ing to a certain pattern and with no short- cuts. Last year, during our fifteen exams, Vin followed the system of outlining each question completely and then recopying his entire answer in the official blue-book and in each examination, no matter how little need there would be for revision of his an- swers, he stuck to his original plan. In our opinion, anyone who will follow this type of reasoning, will never be brilliant, but in a long series of instances, his percentage of error will be low. FRED MILTON APFELBAUM, B.S., M.A. When at 9:30, many a spirited lecturer had warmed to his task, falsely secure in the knowledge that he would no longer be in- terrupted, Freddie would lustily stride into the hall. Marching himself rapidly down to the front row, he would settle his long body into his seat and his feet on the rail, and proceed with folded hands to absorb what- ever knowledge the professor in question had to impart, but only for a while, for he soon found that the weariness of the trip from Weehawken exceeded his desires for know- ledge, and he yielded his soul to the needs of his body. However, despite the fact that he never took a note he always seemed to know his work, a true sign either of genius or the realization of the Philosophers Stone. MICHAEL BERNFELD, B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa Long years ago, they tell us, Mike was traveling through the west, and he chanced to come upon an Indian Reservation, amid much shouting and Fire-water. Mike, so the story goes, stood too close to an Indian's tomahawk, and hence his alopecia. Riding on the ambulance at Long Island, we expect that Mike's technique will im- prove, but we hope that four corners still make a blood count. On St. Patrick's day, when Mike was sporting his new green tie, he chanced to read in the Eagle, that the Brook- lyn's had decided on Kelly green uniforms, and his heart was full with joy for his two loves, Erin and the Dodgers, will go onward and upward forever. UM DENNIS BERNSTEIN, B.S. Denny's military training became appar- ent to us when he was made a captain on OBS. Thoroughly grounded in his subject, as he was in all his courses, he was always in command of the situation and especially of his little juniors. As the years roll by we will remember him as a musician, as well as a student. The whistling, which accom- panied his attendance at lectures, was a rare treat to all who heard it. . Denny is that rare person who is always happy and we believe a good part of this may be traced to a very delightful creature whom he calls his I-Ioneyf, It seems that Helen too went through the four years with us and all we can say is that they make a swell pair. Denny is addicted to whittling too, and he has put his knife and scissors to the work of destroying numerous and sundry tongue depressors Cro the chagrin of the janitorial staffj and clandestinely obtained locks of hair Cmost bemoaned by their near-alopecian ownersj. His good humor and sterling character will be Kings County's gain and our loss. JOSEPH CHARLES BRAUN, A.B. For many years, Dr. Beck has been advo- cating a daily walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, as the perfect way to start the day, but Joe has gone the good doctor one better, for every morning and night he takes a sea voyage across the bounding main of the Hud- son. This program must have some very deli- nite therapeutic value because Joe has con- sistently been clear-headed and accurate. His unfailing courtesy has always been a source of pleasure, and to his credit let it be said that his composure has never been ruilled. When in the future, the moguls of Holly- wood choose a cast for another medical ex- travaganza, we suggest that they hire Joe as their leading man, for to us he has always seemed to typify in looks and manner, the perfect physician. josEPH PETER BRADY, A.B. Vice President Way back, when we were Freshmen, and trying vainly to master our faculties against the ever-present doom of the Siamese gong, we learned to turn to Joe, for concise and accurate information. Later, when we chose him as vice-president, we realized that his abilities were more than academic. Joe's trips to Glen Cove are legend, but his ready smile, and good htunor will always be re- membered as one of the bright spots of our medical career. His exploits in medicine will not remain unsung, if Braun and Daly have their way, but his opinions on the Fordham Football situation are well known to all of us. His recent bout with the sur- geons, in which he came out minus an ap- pendix, left him none the worse for wear Cand tearb, and our confidence in his future remains supreme. HOWARD WILLIAM BRONDUN M It is said that several years ago, Howie was offered Mr. Woolcon's post as the Town Crier, but refused. He has a way of telling stories which is superior to any we have ever heard, a manner, gleaned no doubt, from the Norsemen who were his ancestors. His laugh is priceless and for this too we envy his heritage. He has, however, lost one of the physical attributes of this hardy race, and as a freshman had a beautifully frost- bitten ear. Howie is a laboratory man, par excellance and in the third year we were most surprised to hear that he had a condition in clinical mike, knowing, as we did, that he was run- ning a Hospital laboratory. When the shock wore off the knowledge made us feel better about our own conditions, because we felt that if he could fail, anything could happen. The live honors he also got last year are more indicative of his true character. To those, if there be such, who doubt our conli- dence in him, we offer reference in Brady, Braun, Daly and Constantian. josEP1-I CAPLAN, B.S. Psychiatrist Caplan has spent many hours warning us that the foods we liked were in- dicative of an awful subconscious subversion, which has been his way of spoiling things for us. He spent his last summer examining the patients at Brooklyn State, developing his tennis game and increasing the mighty con- sto-chondral cage which was the despair of the nursing staff. From the experiences of this work, he developed a knowing look, with which to pronounce his, now famous, favorite diagnosis, ulymphoblastoma of the left ad- renal . joe is an incorrigible mimic and the prize of his repertoire is a certain obstetrical Har- vard accent. In addition he has a liking for good music and black cigars and he is re- puted to hold his likker like a man . Despite all these failings, he's a pretty regular fellow and, if he finally does end up in psychiatry, his personal balance will stand him in good stead. WILLIAM ANTHONY CHAINSKI, B.S. Theta Kappa Pri I Big Bill, the former track star, has had a varied career in medical school. Nothing has been too big, nothing has been too small to attract his powers, and enthusiasms. From anatomy to pediatrics, from neurology to fraternity row, Bill has made his presence felt and his name feared. Teamed with Cera- volo and Glass, he formed the apex of a formidable triangle whose exploits will be remembered long after we pass on. Stage- door johnnies were plentiful after last year's spring frolic, all aglow with expectation, as they waited for a beautiful lady to leave the theatre, but they never guessed that under- neath all the paint and powder, was our own shy, retiring little Bill. We know that if ever medicine fails to yield him fame, the mantle of Duse will await his coming. RAPHAEL JOHN CERAVOLO, B.S. Theta Kappa Pri Ralph was born with the desire to sing and through long years of use, his tenor voice has become a thing of beauty the like of which we hope not to hear too often in the future. If he could have found two others, he would have had a trio, but the lack of company was never a thing to daunt him or spoil his ardor. True to his Latin extraction the voice has been part of many affairs of light moment, affairs which have made him the envy of several lesser, and less adept, lights. Ralph has a Hair for good clothes and he looks, each day, as though he had just stepped from the pages of a fashion maga- zine. His neatness and good taste have made him an outstanding personality and have set him apart from the common herd. A friend to all and 'a good fellow to have around in any gathering, we wish him the best of suc- cess in all his future contacts. ALBERT LYON CHAPMAN, A.B. Al joined us during our second year and, for us, this was most unfortunate, for we really didn't get to know him until much later. When we did make his acquaintance, we found a fine, mature personality and a thorough conscientious worker and, what is much more important, a thoroughly depend- able individual. Al has an innate neatness which sets him apart. His notes are works of art and mar- vels of clarity and, unlike many other note- takers we have contacted, once he makes the note he learns it. He brings to the prac- tice of medicine a mature judgement backed up by a fine clinical sense. Long Island is indeed fortunate to be able to include him among her internes and Staten Island will welcome him home when he decides to try the tribulations of practice. As for our- selves, we are glad we finally came to know him and we thoroughly enjoyed all the time we spent working with him. A OWEN JAMES CHEEVERS, A.B. Owen is the familiar, tall, heavy but grace- ful figure of a man mountain who has ap- peared behind the librarian's desk for several years. What a pleasure it was to find him there when you wanted some Chinese Medi- cal Gazette or the Proceedings of the Denver Society for Experimental Witchcraft or some familiar tome. One was so much more at ease chasing Owen around the library, than bothering Miss Daly, with all her real re- sponsibilities. Owen was more than just the polished gentleman surrounded by books, professors and inquiring medical minds, for he was equally a master of the cue stick and billiard table and, in spite of that tremulous bridge and Bill Console's jibes, one click of the cue-ball and anything could happen. Owen is an all around good fellow with courtesy, grace, brains and the faculty for liking all people. l NATHANIAL ABRAHAM COHEN, B.S., M.A. Ploi Lambda Kappa Few fully realized the extent of Nat's powers and potentialities, for he was never one to boast of his mental prowess. It was well known to his- friends that Nat was inter- ested in psychiatry but when he was pre- vailed on to take us thru the wards of Brook- lyn State, behold an apocalypse unfolded itself as he deftly stalked from ward to ward and, with the finesse of a master, won the confidence and then exposed the minds of the inmates for our enlightenment, instruction and amusement. With the same deftness he rolled off the formula for thyroxin for Dr. Greene and with equal skill he demonstrated how to make a billiard of the five ball off the three with both balls frozen on the cushion . With a mind capable of coping with such conditions, there is no limit to his future. MORTON ZOLMAN CLOFINE, A.B. Mortie has learned to play ping-pong Cafter four yearsj and can now beat Fagin. This, in itself, is an accomplishment, but, beyond it, Mortie has even learned to play billiards. Such dissipation must have been a shock to his constitution in the beginning, but he is none the worse for wear. Mortie hails from Philly, our almost sister- city to the South and has spent a good part of his time finding out the names of mutual friends of ours, who he never knew at home. His slow drawling speech has been an in- teresting change from our regular diet of New Yawk and his quiet demeanor has contrasted sharply with our own Mchamping at the bit. No one has ever seen him hurry and no one has ever seen him when he was anything but calm and collected. When phlegmatic personalities were assigned, Mor- tie was at the head of the line munching a sandwich: He will never be one of the 15 W of physicians who develop coronary throm- bosis and we predict for him a well-ordered, level-headed life in Practice. .3-5.1 5 1 EDWARD FRANCIS COLLINS, JR., A.B. Guts Garriganv of act one of the Junior Frolics, was not really his true character. Ed looked ferocious, but in reality he was no more awesome than the rest. His worst failing has been the taking of notes in short- hand and, though he never really took every word, to those of us who watched him, and marveled at his facility, it seemed as though every idea went into his records. Using an excellent set of notes as a basis, he has been very successful in his studies and has managed to put himself among the thirty per cent who never received a condition. Ed is extremely sincere in all his activities and throws himself whole-heartedly into any task. He was the electrician of the Junior Follies and spent most of the evening in a hot little ofiice, pushing the buttons which made our stage effects possible. We like the way he works and we hope that those who constitute his future, share our opinions. M . QI WILLIAM ALLEN CONSOLE, A.B. Literary Anirtanz, Licbonian When Bill was born, his parents chris- tened him with the initials WAC and these letters have typified him. Indulging in wild- ness beyond our most fantastic dreams, he has justified the appellation of wacky , for whatever was wild and wooly was part of Willie's armamentarium. To try to characterize him by one or two incidents, would be sheer waste of material. The junior Frolics was all Bill and his work, in two roles, is something we will never for- get. The earlier memories of Belous, Fin- neran and Console will serve to remind us that we, too, were once very young. His characterizations of burlesque, at which he was a steady customer, were marked by the mastery which typified all his actions. Bill has been Dr. Fenier's right hand man and his success in the clinic speak well for his future. In certain phases ofneurological study Bill is a past master and, if he chooses to confine himself along these lines, we may see a Havelock Ellis with a medical Anne-an JOHN FRANCIS DALY, A.B. Treasurer Jack is a young man with a marvelous sense of humor and the God-given ability to transmit his fun, thru the medium of speech and writing, to others. His characterization of Dr, Shapley , which he wrote himself, was a masterpiece in that it mixed truth and humor in just the right proportions to make it palatable and tangy, without bitter- ness. As treasurer of our class, jack has been able to demonstrate on How to Live on Nothing a Year and to most of us, this ability will be sorely necessary in the first days of our practice. It has been said, by one far wiser than we are, that those who have the ability to get along well on little, most often are the ones who have much. We hope this is the case with jack, but if the first few days are dark and trying, we feel sure that his spirit will not be dimmed and that he will be able to rise to the heights. HAROLD MARTIN CONSTANTIAN, A.B. The quiet gentleman, smoking his pipe with philosophical calm, is Connie. Choos- ing to stay in the background, away from the crowds, he might well have escaped our no- tice were it not for his sterling character and ready counsel. Soon, we became aware of his keen sense of fair play, his refusal to pass judgment on others and his determination to follow his ideals. Year after year, our respect for him grew, and with it, a deeply rooted friendship. Connie has been a first-rate librarian and many a series of medicine cases and many a paper would not have been ready on time, had it not been for his help and his ability to supply references, without hours of search- ing. His energy, enthusiasm and deep respect for others, the qualities which endeared him to us as a friend, will inspire the confidence of his patients. GENERoso D'AvERsA, B.S. Gene is but a pink-cheeked lad, whose ap- pearance belies his maturity. This same ap- pearance has been a great asset and the spell of the handsome doctor has been cast over many nurses, much to Gene's amazement and his confreres' regret. His vasomotor insta- bility during recitations has been a source of pleasure to all, but many a questioner, won- dering whether or not he was blufflng, has gotten his clue from this telltale reaction. Gene has learned, through close associa- tion with Pete Schmidt, the art of eating, in large quantities and at frequent intervals. Many trips have been made by these two young medicos to the hospital kitchens, but the more they eat the hungrier they get . . . love's labour is forever lost. Gene has earned the universal approbation of both his profes- sors and his fellow students, we send him out with our best wishes. I - ' 1 name! X JOHN F. DIXON, JR., A.B. Several years ago, when john was starting his third year, he entered the clinic without his white coat and was promptly mistaken for an attending. If we told you his real age, we would be accused of lying, but for distinction in appearance, John has few ri- vals. He looks, for all the world, like a typi- cal example of success and nothing can shake his aplomb or his apparent command of the situation. Others, in some of the scrapes he has been in, have become red of face and tremorous of hand, but John has maintained himself in all situations. Kipling wrote his famous poem long before john was born, but, when he said, if you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirsn, he was thinking of such a person. The future of this young man, in the practice of medicine, will be a bright one and unmarred by the fears of the thirteen per cent who will develop sclerosed coronaries. i 4: , 4 WALTER JACOB DURR, B.S. Dick is an old army man and has carried the precepts of military training into the practice of medicine, with significant results. Born of the hardy mountaineers, who de- lighted in chasing those varmints off our property he has been ruggedly individual- istic in all his pursuits. Quite a tyro with the female of the species and sophisticated in the truest sense of 'the word, he has nevertheless found time to ac- quit himself creditably in his studies and in the treatment of his patients. A master in the art of knowing the ,right people, he is quick in making differentiation between those who count and those who don't, though occasionally his reaction to the latter has been such as to almost negate his addiction to the former. We return him to his home, in our Sister State of New jersey with the knowledge and expectation that he will con- tinue along the lines he has set. LESTER DRUEIN, B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa Little man, Pediatrics awaits you. Lester has an eternally worried look, which orig- inally we looked on with pity, but which We now look on as cute. How could we look with pity on him, when invariably, through that aspect of anxiety, there came the right answer. The truth is it wasn't worry and Lester could enjoy a joke as well as any of us. When he laughed the epider- mis of his upper lip tautened and the foliage, which grew on it spread out, giving an ap- pearance like blades of grass on a desert. There is no doubt about his future in Pe- diatrics. Children will love to play with his moustache and his red tie. Mothers will go wild about him and his confreres will say he knows his stulff' HOWARD ANDREW ENGLISH, A.B. Alplaa Kappa Kappa When Howie was a little lad he lorded it over all the other children on the block, even over the youngster whose father was a cop, because his dad was a detective. In later years, as maturity and understanding crept up on him, Howie came to realize that having a dad who was a cop meant less of privilege and more of discipline. Knowing him now, we can see that this training has been of value, for it has made him capable of concentration and exertion far beyond our puny efforts. just as the Spartan boys of old became better men thru their passage thru the fire, so Howie was bettered by his early association with strictness and reserve. Never brilliant, Howie has managed to do well all the way because he was able to con- centrate and persevere. Where the more bril- liant, though less consistent, fell by the way- side, he has been able, thru the sheer virtue of steadiness to come out on the credit side. His prognosis is good. -. .3-fy' M GEORGE CHARLES ESCHER, A.B. Phi Delta Epsilon Business Manager, Licloonian The Business Manager of this Lichonian, George will share whatever glory Cand we hope none of the censurej which its publica- tion will evoke. His is the practical mind and in all things he seeks to separate the good from the bad. Long ago he realized that a doctor has to look like a doctor and proceeded to cultivate a professional man- ner and bearing. Those of us who have watched him in action are unanimous in out approval of his methods for they bear the stamp of success. George has subscribed to Esquire ever since it was first published and has supple- mented his already detailed knowledge of what to wear and when to wear it, with the sporty suggestions contained in this tome of fashion. Many of these new ideas he has adopted as his own and his very extensive wardrobe has yielded some bizarre, albeit excellent combinations. This alone stamps him as different from the test. George has individuality to a high degree and he cannot conceive of failure. To us, the man who Louis GALISON, B.S. Lou went to school down in Georgia and this, coupled with a home address on Macon Street, has made him a real Southern Colonel. Well groomed and well mannered Lou has made a good impression on the many people with whom he has had contacts. Thorough in his work, his recitations have been of a high order. With all this he has had time to engage in outside pursuits. He was one of the better riders in our late-lamented Rid- ing Club Clate-lamented because a certain editor fell off his horse and could have been killed, which would have saved a lot of later botherj and his social attainments have been of more than passing quality. Lou's southern drawl has marked him as a distinct personality and has given him color different from anybody else. By the same token, his future patients will come to know him as a man apart from his fellows and one whose whole appeach will be different. SIDNEY IRVING ETKIN, B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa Sid spends his summers in a children's camp as aquatic director and many years of waterfront experience have given him poise and control. His special forte, of late, is diving and in this he has excelled. Sid has been an inveterate note-taker, and what is much more important, he knows how to arrange his notes so that they may be used with the minimum of effort and the maxi- mum of efhciency. Observers are astounded at the ease and facility with which he can locate all the details of any given subject. Sid, like so many of his friends, sprouted a moustache over one of the summer vaca- tions and we expect, in the not too distant future, to find him waxing it into sharp points. Perhaps we've spent too much time in the movies, but just as the beard was the sign of the doctor in the 1880's, so the pointed moustache is becoming the sign of the doctor today. Sid, therefore, will certainly look like a doctor. N14 Ui' THEODORE GIRSTENBLITH, B.S. Self critcism is the highest type of self- discipline. Of this Ted is a master. His finest gift is a certain equilibritun of soul COsler calls it equanimityj which makes him master of every situation and of himself. Calm and collected, sometimes sleepy, never brilliant, never dull, but always efficient, Ted's prog- ress from day to day can be charted as smoothly and as exactly as a ship on a cruise. In this world of speculation we are certain of one thing, Ted will be a happy man. He aims, not for fame or for glory, but for the even more distant goal of being a good physi- cian and a good friend. Later he will also be a good father and a good husband. For all of these Ted has an enormous capacity, what more can mere man ask? JT .' . PETER JOHN GIANQUINTO Lambda Phi Mu Quinton has spent too much time in Con- sole.-'s presence to remain totally sane, but not quite enough to spoil the innate good- nature which characterizes him. Pete has had his share of squabbles and has had his share of the fun. The faculty have harried him just as much as the rest of us, but he still remains good natured. Many times he has saved the day for us by acting as interpreter when some Italian patient, who spoke the mother tongue with a slight English accent, had lead us to the end of our rope and for these assists we are most grateful. We have really enjoyed knowing him and, having seen many of his patients, we are certain that they, too, were glad to see him. We can send him out in full confidence that he will be a credit to us. FW. - IRVING GOLDBLATT, B.S. Goldie has been distinguished chiefly by his reserve. The possessor of a derby, he has Sat- emulated the best of Bond Street in his urday morning chic. A member of the im- has pressionistic school of medicine, Goldie striven to make all his entrances unique. On this one occasion he succeeded in attaining goal, but perhaps he wasn't very pleased with his reward. On the day in question he had some extraneous business to take care of and walked into the County Surgical Clinic an hour late. It so happened that Dr. Barber was present on this occasion and lost his usual mild-mannered calm, much to Goldie's regret. 'Goldie, behind his spectacles was a wise- owl looks. His parents are fascinated by his appearance of wisdom and no matter what he does to them, they feel better. We wish more of us had this gift. P BURT ANTHONY GLASS, B.S. Tlaeta Kappa Pri Burt entered school a pink cheeked and slender lad. He leaves us a rotund and cigar- smoking man. Gone are the frivolities of youth, with their wild, impetuous cries, and flighty enthusiasm. And in their place, is a more mellow, albeit, more ponderous dig- nity, crowned with the ability to say the right thing, in just the right words. Burt's has been a striking personality, and no one with whom he once came in contact, ever forgot him. A veteran of many battles with Drubin and Chainski, and a leading light in many amorous tales, we send him out with our blessings and hope for the best. GEORGE ALBERT GRAHAM, A.B. Alpha Kappa Kappa Essentially the artist, George has brought to the practice of medicine that temperament and preparation which have enabled him to delve into its mysteries with enthusiasm and confidence. He has always had the answer to even the most baffling question, an an- swer, the product of a penetrating and alert mind. None can say that he did not enjoy the four years he has spent in medical school -just the memory of the junior Frolics with music by George Graham and Company will disarm all the doubters. His advance in wisdom and in the eyes of his fellows has been steady. It is hard to describe his cheerful attitude and his never- tiring zest for his work. We have all en- joyed associating with him and feel confi- dent that he will attain his goal in life-the joy and satisfaction of a well ordered prac- tice of medicine. ,iii 1 7.,-r li ills? is 135 , :J . l jj r ju ,.,.,iK.,V W ja J: M SIDNEY SAUL GREENBERG, B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa Senior Assistant, Licbanian Sid could make any medical student get down on his knees and say uncle. His favorite pastime was engaging some of the boys in a conversation which he would deftly swing around to the matter of his latest tete-a-tete with Wade or Frank Cto those less ac- quainted with Sid, we mean, of course Dr. Babbott and Dr. Oliverb. Then, when he had them foaming at the mouth with tongue hanging out and eyes bulging and wide with curiosity, he would suddenly become non- chalant and say, But why should I tell you? With his nose for news, Sid should fulfill his widest ambitions. If he ever seeks a medical position he will know about the openings, even before they occur. His in- terest in local politics, the theatre and in writing, coupled with a good mind, give him a splendid basis for entering the world. JOHN STUART GRUGGEL, B.S. The grey hair and the Homburg, which cover Stu's cranium are not true indications of his personality. Mature in years, far be- yond most of us, his boyish face belies his many stunmers. A long time ago, Stu went to Waildki, and there he acquired a coat of tan, a singing voice, and a ukelele. The exigencies of medi- cal school have been hard on the coat of tan but the voice and the ukelele have survived. It is said, though we weren't there ourselves, that on moonlit summer nights, the Charles River, near Boston, resounds with his music. In the near future, some of our patients may desert us for a more mature physician, if such be the case, a little investigation would probably reveal that Stu was the lucky practitioner. ROBERT YARMOUTH GROMET, A.B. Senior Axiirmnt, Licbonian Sometimes one wonders if Bob didn't miss his vocation in life. He would have been an excellent subject for slow motion pic- tures. By carefully watching Bob, one can make a study of the physiology of locomo- tion, of eating, of talking or of any human activity. It is interesting to watch Bob walk- ing down the street and notice how he lifted one leg slowly from the ground and fore- ward as his arm described a gentle arc and, just as we wondered what all these queer motions were for we beheld that he moved twelve inches. In like manner we have seen his jaws move in purposeful actions and emit, after a time, a few words, but always words of wisdom. Bob was one of the bright men of the class and never had to exert himself much to achieve that distinction. A master of equanimity, he will be happy in the Public Health Service. MORTON LEWIS GUTKIN, B.A. Phi Delta Epsilon Early in our friendship with Morty, we began to call him the Comrade because he was so full of social feeling and conscience. When Morty started medical school he re- solved not to isolate himself from the outside world or to lose contact with the problems which beset mankind. To him the four crowded years of medical school are merely an incident in his life and to lose his touch with what is happening in this rapidly chang- ing world for such a stretch of time, would be an irreparable calamity. His close association with Krall has been a curious blending and complementing of personalities, to the mutual benefit of both. His strict determination and iron will have been productive of great achievement in study and thought. When, in the not too-dis- tant future, the problems of life are insepa- rably mixed with the problems of our medi cal practice we will be grateful to be able to have his advice and assistance. WALTER HASCHEC, B.A. Walter made his presence known to us by the direct way in which he overcame what- ever obstacles stood in his path. To most of us, this concentration of purpose was a phe- nomenon for which we were unprepared and which left us at a loss. We thought Walter's was a one track mind, but slowly we gained his confidence and he proudly displayed his girl friend's picture. Modesry has never been one of Walter's faults. He believed strictly and supremely in his own ability and in his physical prowess Cwith certain qualifications on the latter? and has never been guilty of hiding his light under a bushel. Walter, we think, will bear watching. His unique concentration may take him places in medicine. If-fs CHARLES H. ILTIS, JR., B.S. Art Editor, Liclaonian As a freshman, Charlie developed a liking for hamburger and raw onions and about this time, his chums, Lou, Milt, Pete and Abe developed a peculiar after-dinner sickness characterized by mental torpor, loss of feel- ing, dullness, numbness and listlessness. It is of interest to note that whenever Charlie sat in the first row, after luncheon, the lec- turer, renowned for his alertness, keenness and mental vigor became languid, inconsis- tent and spiritless and with a sigh of forced expiration, the class would slowly drop off to sleep under the influence of Char1ie's lunch. The coincidence of these happenings is an interesting illustration of the modus operandi of its cause and effect. Putting levity aside it was evident to all that here was a young man of unusual tal- ents. Never a weasel at his books, he was always well informed. His keen observation and clear applications of all he has learned mark him for an auspicious future. MILTON DAVID HYMAN, A.B., M.S. Plai Lambda Kappa Associate Editor, Liclaonian Talent is built in solitude, character in the stream of the world. Milt had the capa- city for both. Equally at home in the court- ing of solitude or, more often, in the society of his friends, he was competent in every circtunstance. Now the connoisseur, now the dilettant, eifervescing on the beauties of art and nature, he was sometimes reckoned a pain-in-the-neck by his less-imaginative pals. When, in the third year, the class decided to set a precedent and enter the field of the drama, Milt was one of the few to champion the idea. When interest began to lag, he worked many nights and many days, with Loehfelm, Console and Gromet, to make the plans and scraps of dialogue into a concrete reality. Milt was an integral part of a quintet of varied personalities and physical bulks but he has never lost his identity as a good guy or his enthusiasm for his work. LOUIS EDWARD ITZKOWITZ, B.S., M.S. Phi Lambda Kappa We envy a man for his virtues and love him for his faults. Lou has no faults. In the four year race just ended Lou was always the turtle, never the hare. Slow in his move- ments, deliberate in his efforts, his arrival was always a certainty. Relentlessly he put' sued his course, so often to the exasperation of his less faultless cronies. He was never late and never unprepared - and conse- quently never proficient in ping-pong, bil- liards or cards. Until he was a junior he re- fused to adopt the vicious and vile weed and consistent with his steadfast nature, he never gave it up Cmuch to the chagrin of Abe, whose supply of tobacco, under the repeated onslaughts of Pete and Milt, was already very lowj. Lou has a vital capacity so great that when he takes a deep breath, the rest of the class develops a cerebral anoxemia, but with all that, the world will go on and Lou will play no small part in it. M CECELIA ELIZABETH JETT-JACKSON, A.B. Ceil is one of the sensitive htunan organ- isms who make for creative thought and deep understanding-delicate in mind and tem- perament, but not in body. One knows Ceil well or not at all, for she is either casual and distant or intimate, sincere and friendly. It was a familiar sight to see her, in the corner of the lecture hall, removing herself from slapstick tom-foolery and hilarity which per- vaded the student groups, while she inter- ested herself in what was really important, the content of the lecture. Despite her serious application, Ceil liked her fun too, as can be attested by Freddy Lane, and many a humorous story has her as one of its central and happiest characters. She was always a lady and always a good sport and, we feel, she will make a good lady doctorn. NICHOLAS MARTIN KATONA, A.B. Nick is the pride of the never-nevers , which means that he accepts nothing at its face value and few things at all. He will probably be angry at us when he reads this, but we have never known anyone who made a dogmatic statement in his presence and lived to see it go unchallenged. Nick has been invaluable to us in making the professors feel that we were terrifically interested in every word they uttered and al- ways found something to ask at the end of the lecture. Most of us, however, failed to appreciate this service because it kept us from lunch, but nonetheless, Nick deserves some credit for trying to make some semblance of interest. Nick has always been a man of set ideals and solid attainments. His feet have been firmly fastened to the earth and his ends always clear. These characteristics are of infinite value to a man on the threshold of his career and should serve him well. GUSTAVE KAPLAN, B.S. Gus was once the pride of table 27 and for certain exploits, which marked him as a con- noiseur of rare discrimination, he was nick- named Raffles . His efforts for four years have been directed at Stevenson, in an at- tempt to reform Steve's vagrant wit, but up to the present he has not been very success- ful. It is whispered, though only a rumor, that Steve's broken arm was not the result of a subway accident at all, we wonder what Gus has to say about it. Four years of study and toil have made an old man of Gus and already his mous- tache shows streaks of grey. His appearance of maturity will make his patients more con- fident in his ability, though we who know him, will realize that his grey hairs are only an accident. His closest friends still appre- ciate him after four years of very close asso- ciation, which must be accepted as proof of his real character. i ,L ,, ' f:'5,,,lf.5a'iv: . ,.:.. 1 . . 15743-,Z yr- 5 'sang' ,- - ffamt-.-ir'f:f, ' VICTOR AUGUST KELMENSON, B.S. Kelly, the Boy Scout, has finally attained maturity, with the sprouting of a growth on his upper lip, of late even noticeable at a distance. Kelly still wonders how he got only four deliveries in his first three weeks at the County, while Munzer had six in four days, but we hope he realizes now that it wasn't personality. The high point of Kelly's career is the manner in which he made Charlie Yellin change the brand of his tobacco, merely by refusing to take him to the conferences at Long Island. With such a conquest to his credit, even Alexander would have been satisfied. Kelly is deserting our fair city for St. Louis, where he plans to electrify the medical world with his knowledge and abilities. We hope his plans meet fruition. pt w 'I vi: . ' '1 MILTON MORTIMER KENDALL, B.S. Milt is a piano-player and musician of great versatility. No matter what the in- strument or the type of music, Milt can play it. He has always made a profound impres- sion on us by his clinical knowledge, in which he was far ahead, for he has, in asso- ciation with his father, been really a medical student for most of his life and in medical school, when we were trying vainly to cover various fields, he was liesurely correlating his work and building on a wide personal ex- perience. Milt has made a personal specialty of politeness and consideration and as a result has been well thought of wherever he has gone. He has made many friends and his success is assured. J A If 3 ,Y VW, ...mfH,..!.m,., N 1 ... V , .I T.gE?.av, r ' L . , . 5 rf' L,-N Fi M MICHAEL LIPARI, A.B. Mike, when he came to Long Island was just a sweet lad, fired with high ambition and full of good purposes, but right at the start fate intervened and assigned him to a group with London, Loehfelmand Mastroi- anni. Since that time Mike has not been the same. In chemistry he became known by the nom de plume of guinea pig because he always seemed to pick the short straw and this peculiar fate has pursued him since. Last summer, Mike was resident on ortho- pedics and had a chance to lord it over Loeh- felm, but this is not his nature. The havoc these two wrought with the flat feet of Brooklyn is still beyond conjecture, but the reports which have filtered in from outlying districts, with more than half the precints missing, indicate that their works were de- vastating. Mike has been a sufferer from alopecia progressivansj' as many others have, and this has made him look more distinguished, this, coupled with sage and conservative judgment should stand him in good stead in the years to come. IRVING HADLEY KRALL, B.A. Phi Delta Eprilon Irv brought us the best of culture and polish from Yale and has never lost sight of the fact that he is a gentleman and a Yale- man. His association with Kendall and Gut- kin has been very close and the benefits were mutual. In work and in play these three were together, and, to judge them by their honors',, the three heads were certainly bet- ter than one alone. Irv is a salesman par excellence and be- cause of him many members of the first and second year classes have begun their journal reading earlier, a fact which they doubtless do not appreciate now, but will be thankful for in the future. Irv has lead more than a dual life, for, beyond being student and sales- man, Irv has held the post of Associate Li- brarian at the jewish, which explains the arm-long lists of references he was able to quote. He leaves us soon to return to his- native New Haven and we wish him well in his future practice. GEORGE FREDERICK LOEHFELM, B.S. Alpha Kappa Kappa Class Prexident Prexy has had a brilliant career with us. A hard and thorough worker, he has con- tributed much to the betterment of our class. His enthusiasm has been contagious and has been responsible for the fulfilment of many things, which might otherwise have been failures. George's presidency has been an unusual type of leadership because it has been a leadership of example rather than of direc- tion. His work in the play was outstanding and we can never quite forget his rebirth or his characterization of one of the beautiful young ladies. George has also been a leader in the Se- guin Serenadersn and is one of the best loved of Mrs. Seguin's Children In addition to his fine personality he has been one of our best students and in view of all his virtues we cannot conceive of anything but great success for him. -L--,N - -51 EPHRAIM JULIUS LONDON, A.B., A.M. Step up folks and see the seven wonders of the world all rolled in one, the curiosity of the ages - a medical student, snake charmer, hip wiggler, fan-dancer, strip-teaser. and a darned good student besides . . . we are speaking, just for the benefit of the few who do not know, of snake hips London, and what a man. Therapeutics became most interesting when Dr. Eckerson started com ing late and Epi took charge of the pit, and, to the strains of haunting oriental music ris ing from a hundred throats, he writhed, shook, wiggled and foamed as he was taken by those heart-wrenching melodies. We cannot forget the Donellon House Parties with Epi first going to town on the dance floor and then under the table. Witli all this, he can quote the course of the vagus, phrenic, facial, trigeminal nerves, give the dosage of hundreds of drugs and what have you . . . what more can a wife ask? , 1 m H M ea ,, H JOHN HENRY MEHRLING, A.B. John is a truly remarkable character iso say his intimatesj. There is a peculiar quiet about his bearing, which is most diflicult to describe. In attempting to analyze it one finds many features which are usually dis tributed sparingly in human nature. He has a wealth of sincerity and consideration. Reli- ability seems so completely part of him that it is accepted rather as a matter of course. Whenever his opinions are asked, john de- liberates long and thoroughly before making answer, this may account for the few re- corded victories he holds over Graham. At times John will recount, with great gusto and added motions, that good joke he heard over the radio last night-but then aren't we all? The future, which awaits him, if we are to take the word of those who know him best, is bright and we feel that he deserves what- ever he gets. FRANK MICHAEL MASTROIANNI, B.S. Frank is our most placid personality and never, in the memory of man, has he been known to lose control. Coupled with Eppie London and Mike Lipari from the first he has covered himself with honors and glory. His prowess in abdominal musculature was revealed to us in our freshman year and since that time his ability as a wrestler has never been challenged. Frank is very unfortunate in the fact that beards are no longer of as equal importance as the stethescope in medical practice, for in the growing of hair, facial or cranial, he has no equal. We can imagine him with a full black beard and a frock coat, a most impres- sive sight, but alas for him, the razor has reared its ugly head and he must do daily battle. However, beard or no, we expect a lot of good medicine from him. l l VINCENT A. MELOMO, B.S. We might think that Vinny was emo- tionally unbalanced if we did not know him intimately. No man could sustain a hearty laugh as long as he and then suddenly lapse into sadness and melancholy or perhaps just pensivity. Actually it was just the normal physiological variation of a highly sensitive individual changing from hilarity and good fun to contemplation and thought. Vinnie is a charter member of the lunch munchers society and his ability to devour a three-decker is second to none. He has always been ready for a good time, but yet has always been highly eihcient in his work. This marks him as a well propor- tioned man-what more is needed for success? DANIEL MENDELSON, B.S., M.A. Danny, with his big black cigars, is out Bad man from the south CBrooklyn, of coursej. He is a lad with apple-cheeks and prognathous jaw, who joined us a Sylph and leaves us a Sybil. Danny's mastery of the art of combining sterility with the strip tease, will be long re- membered in the surgical annals of Long Island. Danny is superstitious, especially since he secured his interneship at his thir- teenth examination. We can see him now, with less hair and more tummy, and his in- separable cigars, delivering all the southern belles of Brooklyn. Danny is the past-master of the art of hypnotism, and ocular mastery, and his handling of a certain instructor, way back, will be famous for many years, as an example of supremacy of mind over matter. DAVID PAUL MILLIKEN MORTON, A.B. Dave, a product of Princeton, lacks those earrnarks which are supposed to be tradi- tional of a Princeton Man. In dress, in speech and in action, he is much like the rest of the medical student group, and we feel that the lack of veneer is made up in the fine traits of humanity he has shown. Dave has served us well. He has the ca- pacity to laugh easily and heartily at all professorial jokes and as a result has, from his front row seat, saved the face of his more solemn comrades, even at the expense of being regarded by these selfsame comrades as a stooge . We do recall that one of the prime requisites of a good politician is this same ability to make people feel that they are great and important and with this in mind we can predict a successful career for him. EUGENE LEO MILLER, B.S., M.A. Phi Lambda Kappa We have known Gene for many years and we still marvel at his happy-go-lucky attitude. Perhaps, a daily trip from jersey makes all other things seem trivial and thus enables him to dismiss worry from his mind. Gene's senior year has been a succession of broken hearts. Somewhere in Gene's life there is a lady, but to all the other women he has met, he is just a big handsome man, who smiles nicely and talks pleasantly, but who refuses to give them a tumble. Gene has an infectious enthusiasm and has the ability to contribute this enthusiasm to his listeners. He has great civic pride CEd. noteg in Jersey, no lessj and is very proud of the sociological. advances' which have taken place in jersey City in the past few years. Dr. Warren's job as president of the Health Council of the Chamber of Com- merce is vacant-we suggest that Gene ap- ply for the post. MAURICE HERBERT MUNZER, B.A. Photography Editor, Licbonian- Maurice has our gratitude for most of the student photography in this book. His asso- ciation with his camera has been very close and wherever he has gone, he has left picto- rial evidence of his passing. Maurice's favo- rite snaps are those he takes when we are unaware and these same snaps are our des- pair. Most of us think we are fairly intelli- gent looking i:1divi:.'uals, but the camera doesn't lie and its evidence is often less than flattering. Maurice has been an object of wonder to all of us. The time he has spent in photogra- phy and in the company of a certain blond- haired lady in Manhattan, would to us have been courting disaster at the hands of the faculty, but to Maurice time seemed a non- entity, for he was always prepared and always ready with his assignments. The signal suc- cess he has demonstrated in all his under- takings mark him for an equally successful future. il l Ti X I-.'. .,. THOMAS ANTHONY NACLERIO, A.B. Lambda Plai Mu Tommy has made a specialty of minding his own business. For four years we have known him and in these four years we have never heard a single gripe or a single piece of sage, but free, advice from him. To us, so used to seeing privacy become a part of the spotlight, Tom has been a welcome and refreshing exception. In minding his own troubles. Tom has amassed a store of medi- cal knowledge, sufficient to keep the blue pennants flying after any or all questions . . . reticent about forcing his knowledge on any group, he has nonetheless been willing to give accurate information whenever it was sought. For this, on many occasions, we have been grateful. Tom has also been addicted to photogra- phy, but, as in all his other activities, he has been careful about who and what he snapped and to whom he showed the results. His pa- tients will be assured of the maintenance of their confidences, but we hope he becomes less reticent about his own attainrnents. ABRAHAM J. ORFUSS, B.S. Plvi Lambda Kappa Abe, the moustacioed cabalero, has been one of our most valued members. His knowl- edge of pharmacy has pulled us out of many situations, in some of which we might still be wallowing. His spare time has been spent in trying to beat Petillo at Ping Pong, which to our minds is one of life's most awesome futilities . . . it just can't be done. However, Abe is made of sterner stuff and refuses to admit defeat, that is, not until the game ends. The exercise, at least does him good. His friendship with Hyman and Itzkowitz has been a thing of beauty and, to some, a joy forever. His moustache has been daily getting blacker and more bristling and is now truly formidable, though its effect on a certain pediatric patient were not, we are sure, what its wearer desired. Abe leaves us well prepared for the battle, for he is the only one who really can write prescriptions. JOHN AUGUSTINE O,HALE, A.B. Our acquaintance with john has been very short, inasmuch as he has been with us only a year. His habit of first-naming half the residents we came in contact with, was most disconcerting. It is true that he knew all these men from the time when they were classmates, but, to us, to whom they were men apart, such treatment was sacrilegious. He has been unassuming and quiet and has, at the same time absorbed much, while appearing not to work too hard. He never causes much trouble, but occasionally will argue at the drop of a hat, just, we suspect, for the sake of argument. At times he has surprised us with his keen questions and sagacious replies and at other times the re- verse has been our lot. His maturity should stand him well in practice, but, before he leaves us, we hope he learns how to take care of his right hand, lest it be amputated at the wrist for chronic writer's cramp. 7 PETER ADRIAN PERILLO, A.B. Lambda Phi Mu Pistol Pete the Editor of the Daily Pfm has been one of our most active members. A student of great ability who has also been able to devote a large portion of his time to our lighter moments, he stands out in no uncertain light. In the Junior Frolics, it was Pete's hard and continuous work which made the affair a financial success. Pete is the anagram champ of the left wing of Clinical Hall and will meet any and all comets on their own or his grounds, no holds barred and winner take all. In addi- tion he is a cartoonist of note and would have filled the Lichonian with his art, except that he couldn't get the right ideas. His aim in school has been two-foldg to learn as much of everything as possible and to have as much fun as possible. In both of these he has succeeded, but his appearance of iust taking things easy while working at topspeed, has been most exasperating to those who showed their diliiculty. His success is assured. z gag. PAUL THOMAS PERUGINI Paul has always been the typical big man. Collossal in size, with the heart of a child, he has gone out of his way to make things easier for all of us-a most refreshing trait in this hustle, bustle existence. His faith in human nature is supreme, and the number of times he has put it to the test has always amazed us-but his trust was not misplaced, because he still has the micro- scope, ophthalmoscope, stethoscope, reflex hammer, and white jacket. Paul's practice will take him to the far reaches of West- chester, but we feel conlident that his capa- bilities will reflect credit on Long Island. In any event, if he takes the same interest in his patients, as he has taken in us throughout our medical careers, his sleepless nights will be many, and his practice large. LORENZO Pico, B.S. Larry has been a prominent member of the golden horseshoe of the left wing of the Lec- ture Hall, where, he spent many hours in mental fencing with Stevenson. He has been a hard worker, but of late has begm to take his work more leisurely and even Stevenson's rumors with placid calm, although to many it might seem untrue. As a clinical inter- preter, Larry's progress has been phenomenal and his services most welcome. Larry has a, big heart and an open mind. His is the type of intellect, which, when once it grasps a fact, records it for a lifetime of service. He is ideally suited to the practical side of medicine. He learns carefully, slowly and thoroughly. We expect, from him, not brilliance. but steady dependable, painstaking Work. which, after all, is the essence of a good doctor. HANNAH PETERS Hannah came to us in our third year, hav- ing been born, raised and partially educated in Germany from which she fled in terror. XV e remember the furor she caused on her first entrance into the Lecture Hall and how first Julie, then Nat and then Joe established their seats next to her. Michelangelo, Leon- ardo da Vinci and Raphael together could not have painted a prettier nose, a more shapely chin, more sparkling eyes or a more devastating smile. 'Tis a pity we learned later that those eyes were wily and there was cun- ning in that smile. Hers has been the philosophy of the in- dividualist, to the highest degree, the direct progress from point to point, without regard to extraneous persons or things. The posses- sor of an undoubtedly good mind, there is no predicting what her future holds. JOHN JOSEPH Poser, B.S. john is a strong, silent man, reserved in all his contacts and conscientious and thorough in all his undertakings. We have seen him, however, at times when he was not so quiet, times when his blood pressure was zooming. Lipari and Stevenson, were usually the stim- uli to his hypertension and took advantage of johris close association with Morpheus, so close, in fact, that on many occasions we thought that they were one and the same. Disturbing him and preventing him from getting his full eighteen hours of sleep a day was the simplest method of arousing john's ire and his two friends made certain that he was duly and completely disturbed. For this reason, we strongly advise that john limit his practice to consultations, just a few hours a day, by appointment only. Somehow, with his keen medical sense and strict up- bringing, we expect him to have to adopt this limitations after a few vears of practice, since the good burghers of the Bronx will be ouick to realize his value and swell his prac- tice. X Meta mu 1, W- mm 1 i ,Q 5, rr ,iii l l L. N EDWARD ARTHUR REILLY We can see great things ahead for the professor , It always amazed us to hear Ed instructing the attending staff in the tenets of neurology. It seemed to us like bearding the lion in his den but Ed knew whereof he spoke, and the staff men knew that he knew too, so they listened discreetly. His keen mind and profound concentration mark him as a man who will go places, and we expect him in the future to join the greats of Long Island. We are grateful to have had him with us. He lent dignity and scholarship to us, traits which were sorely needed ron many occasions, and we will always miss his ready smile, his neat manners, and his slow precise speech. DANIEL BEN JAMIN ROTH, B.S. Phi Delta Epsilon Editor-in-Chief, Licbonian With this book as evidence, what other tribute need we pay our editor and friend? Danny is unique among mortals in that he can sustain an absorbing interest in every- thing he does, whether it be medicine, base- ball scores, Fraternity matters, the Lichonian and God only knows what else-and in his ability to convey this enthusiasm to all whom he contacts. Far from being a politician, Danny has a special talent for friendship in the ease, naturalness, complacency and smooth performance which have always char- acterized him, at times to the complete exas- peration of those lesser mortals who grow haggard, worn, hollow-eyed and tempera- mental when the going gets heavy and the time short. Danny was always the master of the situa- tion, with forty-two jobs to do, and one man to do it, he still presented a countenance which was calm and even. Prudence has al- ways been the better part of wisdom with him. SAMUEL SAUL ROMENDICK, B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa Whenever we hear the loud, staccato noise of cracking knuckles, we will always look for Sam, the Roman. As a member of Ru mor, et Cie., C in association with Greenberg and Itzkowitzh, he put on a show of whis- pering, which put all the past whispering Fordhamsn to infinite shame. When we Hrst met Sam, we thought he was a professor, but as the years roll on, we realize that he used the elevator only to ease his quaking joints, and that he lost his hair, even as you and I. The many hours he has spent as a profes- sonial hematologist, no doubt have qualified him to use the graphite method with fine dis- crimination. Having weathered the fire of Drs. Layton and,Genthner, we feel that he has earned his degree. There's no blizzard like the blizzard of '88, gp ..g. V. . .gk PIERRE JosEPH SALMON This young man has our vote for gentle- manly perfection having achieved a smooth- ness in dress and action which has eluded the most valiant efforts of the rest of us. From the first day, he has counted the days to graduation and has been ready, at all times, to announce the exact totals. As a Freshman, Pierre was very quiet, limiting his vices to a daily subsidy of the telephone company and peanut butter and lettuce on white. As the years wore on he began to be corrupted by his associates, catch- ing the exanthem of photomania from Munzer and learning the art of ufrenching sheetsu from Console. Of late, all his spare pennies have gone into the purchase of film, cameras and assorted accessories and it is no longer safe to sleep with your mouth open . . . Salmon might try to take a picture of your teeth. . We expect him to continue his good work when he goes to the Brooklyn Hospital and later on to become one of our most success- ful practitioners . . . he certainly has the characteristics for success. JOHN JOSEPH SAUER, A.B. Alpha Kappa Kappa . Johnny combines all the stolid virtues of his Teutonic ancestors, with the flaming am- bition of a pltuned knight. Slow and de- liberate in all his undertakings, he has been visible proof of the old proverb, Slow and steady wins the race. Many years ago when john was lighter and more beautiful, he was a wrestler, and we can still look back with glee at his invita- tion to a certain obstreperous janitor's assist- ant, to step outside for a few minutes. Get- ting along in years, john has quieted down, but he still swears, that Dr. Beck had a twin brother on a certain morning in March, and Romendick backs him up. We hope that in -his emulation of Virchow, he achieves the pinnacle of success. . IF- K' GEORGE FRANCIS SEELINGER, B.S. Bzuinen Board, Licbonian George is a real alumnus of Notre Dame and consequently is entitled to buy seats for the Notre Dame-Army games, a rite he ob- serves religiously each year. His football bets have been many and his judgment in sport matters has been extremely good. George is practicing up on sleeplessness for it is his cherished ambition to become an obstetrician. 'Tis said that he has already an enviable record in the baby-snatching business and we expect him to continue. Leave us your number George, we'll call you in on all our breeches and transverses. p PETER PAUL SCHMIDT, B.A. Pete, the P-P man, has been a very sorry individual throughout his life with us. For years he has tried to gain weight and has eaten enough to feed a half dozen of us and each time he steps on the scales he finds him- self lighter. A short while ago, he decided to give up and has cut down to 4 meals and 7 glasses of milk a day. A few years back, Pete was bitten by the photography bug and purchased a beautiful soft-focus Foth. One day he was in Macy's and a sale of films was in progress and as a result he bought 96 rolls of film. This coup cost Macy's an even dollar, but Pete still has about 40 rolls tucked away in the dark. Pete has made good use of the Academy of Medicine and we've found, that no matter where it was, he had read it. His thorough- ness should stand him in good stead later on. SAMUEL SHERMAN, A.B. The pride of Michigan has had many stormy sessions since he joined us. All through the junior year he was terrified by the rumors of surprise quizzes, and we re- member the day at Kingston Avenue, when he barricaded himself with a case of German Measles so that he could study clinical mike. The reason we remember the day is that the rumor we had started just to take Sammy for a ride turned out a boomerang, because the blue-books were waiting for us, when we returned. Of late we have noted grave signs in Sammy, he has been going out with nurses and we are much afraid that one so young will find himself in trouble. We hope, that when he gets our in practice, he learns to recognize a rumor when he sees one and that he learns to take Titman with an appro- priate grain of salt. S JOEL FRANCIS SMITH, A.B. Student Council Redsy Smith ,has been an outstanding member of our class. Nurtured in the best teaching of Tammany, our local, politics were pie for him and he became a student council- lor. His exploits in the Seguin service and especially his skill at sandwich-making mark him as a coming great . . . anyone who can be so versatile cannot fail of success. During the summer joel holds down a job as a lifeguard for the City of New York and earns a small fortune. In his uniform he is a sight to behold and many hearts have lain broken and bleeding on the sands, for Joel goes on about his business, thinking only of a certain lady in Greenwood Lake. His Irish wit and his political ability insure his future success. l MARSHALL LEE STEVENSON, A.B. We all knew him as Steve but, to Bill Genthner it was Marshall . No one knows how many nights he tossed on his couch thinking up a new rumor to stop Larry Pico, but to his credit it must be said, that in the final reckoning Steve was one up. Steve was addicted to the making of prac- tical jokes and probably the best of his career was perpetrated on the unsuspecting person of john Poggi. It seems that at 2 A. M. the phone rang in the OS house and John was called out to see a lady in the far reaches of Red Hook, a lady, in fact who never even existed. Steve enjoyed the trip immensely. We wonder if he is really a rnisogynist. for no one has ever seen him with a member of the opposite sex. Rumor has it that a certain lass wearing an A.O.A. key pines away in God's country, waiting for Steve to return. His personal characteristics of honesty and perseverance mark him as a successful practi- tioner and with Dr. Layton's recommenda- tions behind him he should go far. SAMUEL SPECTOR, B.S. Sam took us totally by surprise in medi- cine during the past year. Heretofore we be- lieved that he was a quiet dependable stu- dent and so we were unprepared for the rabid opinions he handed us during our pre- conference Medicine Seminars. And he re- fused to allow us to argue with him, produc- ing tome on tome of authority to back up his claims. Sis Mangin was proud of her charge and we could, in truth, but agree. A confirmed skeptic, his association with Eppie London has brought out some unusual facts. Pre-Sammy we never knew that pitui- trin made roosters cluck or that aspermia and baldness were closely associated, but now that he has said it, who are we to doubt him. His clinical acumen is of the highest and augurs well for the health and happiness of Brownsville. 1 1 n SIDNEY TAMSE, B.S. Sid has cared little for the so called extra- mural extra-curricular activities so dear to the hearts of the rest of us. Bent upon mak- ing a success of his stay in medicl school he can look back at his record and feel a well- deserved pride. For four years we have watched Sid and now, when its all over, we wonder if we too had studied, could we also have faced Dr. Layton with such manly aplomb. judging from the application Sid has shown us, his patients are to be considered fortunate, but we do feel that some slight association with the opposite sex. in other than a professional capacity, might not be amiss. mais ' 'm ' Y- mf'5.,, Hl5'Q!uz5srQg-Hm,- 1, , U' ali -Z if ,.,l.,.. Y WALLACE SAMUEL TIRMAN, B.S. For most of our medical careers we had a false impression about Wally, we thought his real name was Sam and, in this thought, started what seems to have been a family riot for the Tirmans didn't like the name We apologize now, forever and ever it will be Wally. Our blond-haired young man used to amuse us with his boyishness, but as the years wore on we became older and our amuse- ment was replaced by a more mature toler- ance of one who wore his years lightly. The darling of the nursing staffs, in whatever hos- pitals he chanced to be, we can see for him a long and useful life stimulating the slow- ing feminine heart. EE l JULIAN LAWRENCE WISHIK, A.B. Spring in many localities is marked by the appearance of the Hrst robins, but we have learned that spring comes when Julie puts on his white shoes. A man of many moods, he attained greatness a few years ago when he appeared on wintry mornings wearing a black fur cap, in addition to his usual fur coat. We could not blame him for his choice, since the trip from the wilds of Flushing is of certainla cold one, especially in an open roadster. Julie, out of school is a tennis player, horseman and dancer of enviable reputation and judging from the iron hat and mustache he has been sporting of late, we are looking forward to his practice. It's going to be nice to know someone on Park Avenue. ANDREW ALBERT VANORE Alpha Kappa Kappa Student Council Andy is another of our ex-professors. With his graying hair and neat moustache, we mixed him up with Dr. Congdon, but not for long, because it soon became apparent that Andy was just as worried as the rest of us. His clinical acumen will always amaze us, for we remember how he once suggested an eosinophilic leukemia on the basis of history alone and how he made periarteritis nodosa his number one diagnosis at least a week be- fore Dr. Howard or Dr. Plotz suspected the condition. Osler MacRae, and Sydenham move over and make room for Vanore. We will always be grateful to Andy for the help he gave us in Physiology, and for his assistance in bringing out the ninth life of our cats. EDITH FLORENCE WOODLETON, A.B. Clam Secretary How incompetent is language to describe she about whom poems are written, dreams are dreamt and songs are sung! Aye, even telephone booths take on glamour when shared with this creature of the gods, a fact to be attested by Wally and confirmed by George. But, away with platitudesg let us be earnest. Providence has given Edith an extra measure of good things. Clever beyond a doubt, genuine, sincere and hearty in friend- ship, she is undoubtedly the envy of her sex. She can mingle with men, easily and smoothly, enjoy a laugh or initiate a prank, without for a moment sacrificing dignity, grace or bearing. Thoroughly feminine, she still seemed to fit perfectly into every mas- culine group. To characterize Edie without using too many superlatives is a difficult task, she has been tops in everything. A splendid young woman and a line doctor, we have no fears for her future. - -, Y . - -- i . 1 in 1 , - ' CHARLES HENRY YELLIN, B.S. Charley, smoking his pipe has always been a picture of contentment and ease, and to the rest of us, troubled by fears and nervousness, the sight of his placid nonchalance was a thing of wonder and mystery. Never, in all the years we have known him, have we seen Charley worried, and never, by the same token, have we seen him without his pipe. His associations with Stevenson and Kap- lan are replete with interesting episodes, most vivid of which is the writeup he did on Gus, and Gus' reaction when he heard about it. We are looking forward to great things from Charley, but we fervently hope he changes his tobacco. LICHONIAN SENIOR DIR FRED MILTON APFELBAUM 125 Exeter Street, Brooklyn, N. Columbia, B.S., M A.

The amateur politicians immediately set to work and, whether they succeeded or not, the class elected Jack Brierton presi- dent almost unanimously. With concentration in Brooklyn a certain underliner breathed a sigh of relief at the thought that the distance from Donnellon to St. Charles Place was much less than from Kew Gardens to Amsterdam. EX FTER A SUMMER which seemed to be all too long or all too short according to The new white coats sorely disappointed john C. who decided they just didn't go with his five new suits bought, no doubt, to dazzle the innocent city damsels with his sartorial elegance. Stew badl' save them for Kingston, John. 'Long about this time one of our clinicians, a rather tall and wide fellow reported an interesting history-seemed an 18 year old female had had intermittent hematuria once a month for two or three days for the past five years. Tish- Tish what these gals won't do when they learn the ways of the world. Some interesting con- tributions to science-one lad namesake of a Herr Doctor discovered hair all covered with head. Then Nate had an unusual patient whose abdomen seemed to be in the right place. My-oh-my! Who knows, some day Hoesten's coefficient may be appreciated. What is it? You take the blood pressure multiply it by the respiratory rate divide it by the pulse. The patient will recover when the result equals 100. We nominate C. J. F. K. as the bravest lad in our midst. He persists in keeping his front row seat despite the fact that half the class used his polished top for a target. Bulleyes make it turn red, Dwyer holds the record with ten direct hits. Cliques and clans were very popular this year we all had our little groups . . . the pool room boys J. Raleigh, Kenneth, and Co .... the Seguin service, chief resident N. Block . . . the Morpheus club at last report Ohlbaum was leading with 723 hours with Mackby close on his heels. The race is going at a hot pace with a feather lined club chair as first prize. Not long go Wald tried to follow in Walt Disney's footsteps with the help of the projec- tion lantern in clinical hall and a little time between lectures. He failed, however, when his leading man, Artie Wein, rather pugnaciously resigned threatening mayhem. He refused to play Billy the Bacillus, or Robert the Rat?? By the way Wald, what the hell was that thing? Two plus Temchin will laugh at anything-even Dr. Goetsch's jokes . . . Red Reis- man says one ought to avoid prognosing in scarlet fever . . . why make rash statements . . . The Saturday morning vocal palsy club should have paid an official whistler . . . Kreusser claims that Romano and Mackby could have been a little closer to Dr. Rosenthal in Pathology but they couldn't get good fittings in rubber pants . . . After three years Settel had to back down when one of Moretsky's stories proved to be true . . . Vin Strully's prize G. E. patient denied she ate bread for breakfast . . . merely three pieces of toast . . . We think King might try smiling at his own answers once in a while . . . After a lengthy recitation-Dr. M.

Frankly, I'd rather have a posterior occiput-but, of course, if you prefer an anterior face, don't let me try to influence you. We're all entitled to our own opinions. But let me ask you another question, doctor. Youire called in on a case. An I.ScA. The woman's been in labor 52 hours. The cervix is three lingers dilated, the membranes are ruptured and the head is at the brim. What are you going to do? I'd call in a consultant. Well, suppose you couldn't get one. I guess I'd try a version. That's right, youid do a version. What kind? You've had so much more experience, Doctor Beck, what kind would you do? Well, I'd do a bipolar podalic version and extraction. Like this, see? The assistant stands here ahhnd pushes- Pardon me, Doctor, the word is and, a-n-cl. You said ahhnd. So I did. Thank you . Well, the assistant stands here and pushes like this, and you put a hand in like this and reach for the head while your other hand turns it toward the breech and another assistant pushes this way, all under deep anesthesia of course-and a good pull on the leg like this and- Excuse me for interrupting, Doctor, but you've killed the baby. Hmmmm-so I have .... Oh well, it's all in the day's work. You've killed the mother too. Ruined the machinery and messed up the factory. Heh heh Cshylyj I guess I have, haven't I? Made a little error I guess. OF 1937 Mr. Dr. Mr. Dr. Mr Dr. ZVI1' Dr. Mr. Dr. M 1' Dr. Mr Dr. Mr Dr. Mr. A little error? What do you think the husband is going to say? I guess he won't be very pleased. No I guess he won't. just what do you think he'd say? Well, I guess he'd wonder how I was practicing medicine. All right, I'm the husband-I say- how are you practicing medi- cine? Now, what do you say? I'd say: That's the way I was taught . You'd say that's the way you were taught. A fine reflection. Your professor could never have taught you anything like that. But while we're at it, Doctor, what do you think is the biggest danger to the mother when she's in labor? The doctor. No, I'm afraid you're wrong. It isn't the doctor? live always taught it is. Well it isnlt. Infection? No. Hemorrhage? I see it's Monday morning. Have you ever heard of Magnesium sul- phate, doctor? And the early morning salt air on the Brooklyn Bridge? You know, at this stage I don't want any text-book answers you have to think. I guess I don't know the answer. Well, you should know.

THE CLASS OF 1940 IRST IMPRESSION S may or may not be lasting-but they are almost always interesting. And in about 94.3 percent of the cases-or maybe 94.4 percent-they are also very vivid. What freshman will ever forget that first day on which the class assembled outside the dissecting room-those first twenty minutes spent in an attempt to be jovial, with many a backward glance through the open door? Or who can easily forget the first introduc- tion to Bessie or Willy or Tommy, as the case may be? Two boxes of bones later became quite an ordinary feature of our existence, but on that first day, there was still something a little novel about the idea-especially among those more unfortunate souls whose boxes were blessed with little visitors from another sphere. And the first time we almost broke our arms carrying Cunningham to school, we began to wonder just what it would feel like when we were carrying its 1500 pages in our heads. Before the first month was over, we stopped worrying about that problem. Our impressions of the first two weeks are of one continual quiz. These quizzes were conducted by two principle methods. But although the procedure was different in each case, the net result was the same-we were always amazed at how much time we could spend studying the wrong things. The first type of quizzing preceded all lectures and was charac- terized by square pictures, one inch by one inch, on the reverse side of which, little rows of zeros told the sad story of the unlucky victim. By the second method, a continuous stream of doctors wandered from table to table, firing questions on the way and leaving a trail of broken illusions behind. The only difference between the two lay in the fact that when the first method was employed, the whole class found out what we didn'r know. Then came the first big milestone. The little Siamese bell may ordinarily have a very beautiful tone-but in our minds, it will always be associated with bad news. After the first set of four minute bouts-and its aftermath, the long hours of waiting for a tap on the shoulder-we distinctly remember wondering what life was all about. Now, when we've advanced to the stage where we can discuss the presence of a mesentery in 15 percent of the cases, we have to confess that we're still wondering. One H zmcired Twenty-nine LICH'ONIAN But as time wore on, we became oriented to the new routine, we stopped worrying about what to do with our free time, and we settled down to a program of learning all about those little nubbins smack dab up in that neck o' the woods . And we smiled a little at the classic answer of one freshman to the familiar question What y' got? I ain't got nuttin' And, speaking of medicine clinic, nobody has ever been able to solve the mystery of the pennies from heaven , but re the matter of lens paper in the microscope, see Matty Brown. Talks may be short, short short, or just plain ordinary lectures-but Otto Sartorius is one lad who believes in coming prepared. That strange hissing noise that echoed throughout the sixth floor one morning was not the reaction of an audience to an amateur night but merely Otto's kindly classmates helping him to blow up his air cushion. Perhaps the best bit of excitement of the year ushered in the elections. Wholesale bargaining between the two principal parties, added to the somewhat confusing activities of several groups of independents, combined to throw the lab into such a state of upheaval as it has never seen before or since. The silence was deafening as the final deciding vote was counted. But the highlight of the whole afternoon lay, not in the presidential race, but in the nomination for vice-president of one Charles Everett, resident of room 82, table 16. For- tunately, he was overwhelmingly defeated. Then came what the head of anatomy announced as the best exam the department has ever made out'l. In the name of those who took it, let me say that this was no exaggeration- in fact it was a gross understatement. All of which gave rise to the familiar saying, Where were you on the night of December 19th? But they finally came-the longed-looked-forward-to Christmas holidays-perhaps the most appreciated vacation any one of us has ever enjoyed. And some of the holiday spirit must have remained with us, for, on the following Saturday, the freshmen gave their first class party. It was such a huge success that everybody agreed it must be done more often, and hearty support was found everywhere for the dance in February. So, looking backward over chapter one, we realize how much of the better has been mixed with the bitter, and looking forward, we are eager to sample what the future holds in store.

Welton, M.D., '08 A little over twenty years after the Long Island College Hospital had come into existence the Alumni Association was born. On May 21, 1880, Doctors Jarvis S. Wight, John A. Mc- Corkle, and Francis H. Stuart, a self-constituted committee, sent out a letter to each alumnus living in Brooklyn and vicinity, stating that they were about to form an alumni association. On Tuesday, May 25, 1880, the first alumni meeting was held in the amphitheatre of the old hospital, which at one time had been the Perry Mansion. At that time, a constitution and by-laws were drawn up and the following officers were elected: Premienz ........................................................ ALEXANDER J. C. SKENE Vice-Prerident ..... ....................... JAMES WATT Secretary ,.,..,.,........,..,...... ............. F RANc1s H. STUART Correrpomiing Secretary ........ ................. G EORGE H.

One Hundred Forty-fam' OF 1937 Twenty-two alumni were present, and an assessment of one dollar was levied on each one of them. It was decided to hold a special meeting after the commencement exercises and voted that the Association would offer an Alumni Prize for the best original scientihc paper. The first annual meeting of the Alumni Association was held on june 13, 1881. The writer cannot discover where this meeting took place, but we do know that it was in the nature of a clinical discourse and that papers were read by several prominent alumni on medical topics. Following the meeting, the members present adjourned to the Iron Pier at Coney Island, which was reached by a steam railroad train. Coney Island in those days was not the resort it is today. Then, one alighted from a train at the end of the journey and walked a quarter to half a mile on a board-walk which was flanked by glistening white sand. There were a few houses Csome of them disreputablej a row of bathing shanties, a wooden building called a hotel, and the Iron Pier. One got aboard a Long Island train and it seemed quite a journey to the ocean. Once there, our alumni brethren sat down to a gay dinner. We might say this was the first Annual Dinner of the Association. On February 5, 1887, the President, Paul H. Kretzchmar, advocated that an alumnus be on the Board of Regents and on the Council of the College and Hospital. This matter was referred to a special committee which reported at the Ninth Annual Meeting, held on March 12, 1889. The report was to the eiiect that a letter had been received from the Regents stating: If the name of any incorporator is submitted to the Board of Regents by the Alumni Associa- tion it will doubtless receive respectful consideration. It was stated further that a payment of S550 was necessary to qualify one as an incorporator, but the association was ready to stand this expense. The term of a Regent was five years, and Dr. Z. Taylor Emery was selected by the Association to be an incorporator. A committee was appointed to confer with the Regents in regard to his election. After 1895 an alumni representative on the Board of Regents disappears from the records. At a regular meeting of the Board of Managers of the Association on April 13, 1926, this matter was again brought to life, and the appointment of a representative of the Association on the Board of Regents caused much discussion. Finally, a letter was sent to the Secretary of the Board of Regents and this ended in the following resolution, which was passed at the regular meeting of the Board in May, 1926: A motion was duly made, seconded, and unanimously carried, that a representative of the Alumni Association of the College of Medicine be elected each year as an honorary member of the Board, and that he participate in all respects in the meetings of the Board except as to any legal view of the Corporation, that such representative shall be either the President or the retir- ing President of the Association, and shall be determined presently by the Association itself and advised by the Boardf, As a result, Dr. Augustus Harris was chosen by the Assciation at its regular annual meeting in 1927. Within recent years the Association has departed from this fixed custom, and Dr. Frederick Tilney, '03, Professor of Neurology at Columbia, and Dr. Nathaniel P. Rathbun, '98, Director of Urology at the Brooklyn Hospital, have been and are our representatives on the Board. Both men are bright stars among the Long Island alumni. At the meeting held March 21, 1893, the by-laws were amended so as to provide for annual dues of one dollar. The money received was to be used in preparing and maintaining a list of the Alumni. The annual meetings continued in regular order. These meetings consisted of a clinical discourse and the alumni dinner, at which the Alumni Prize was awarded. For some unknown reason this prize was discontinued in the year 1900. One Hmzdrezi Forty-Jive LICHONIAN In 1923, Dr. john J. Masterson was president and he decided the Association should ex- pand its scope of work. The Board of Managers decided upon the publication of an Alumni Journal, which came into existence in 1925 under the editorship of the writer. Later on others asstuned the editorship, but the writer returned to the post in 1933 and is still in the Editor's Chair. In its first year the journal Cir was called The Bulletin of the Alumni Association of the Long Island College Hospitalb had 700 paid subscriptions, in the second year 800, and 850 in the third year. Today from 2500 to 3000 read The Long Ixlander, the name adopted about two years ago. At a regular meeting held October 30, 1927, Dr. Joseph Tenopyr asked the members to discuss the desirability of holding an Alumni Day. Accordingly, as a result of this thought, the first Alumni Day was held May 26, 1928, and was characterized by a series of clinical talks in the morning, with talks and clinics held by the members of the faculty in the afternoon. During the past five years Alumni Day has become a gala occasion in our history. It has become the custom for an outstanding alumnus to give a scientilic paper or talk at the morning session, which is held in the large amphitheatre in the Polhemus Clinic building. Later, a luncheon is given by the hospital authorities in the nurses' dining-room in the Hospital. At these the at- tendance has been large, the dining-room being filled to capacity . At the luncheon one, two or three alumni usually give short talks, for the most part they have been non-medical in charac- ter, often they have been humorous, at times even hilarious. Following the luncheon the annual business meeting is held, various matters discussed, and the oliicers elected for the ensuing year. In the evening, the clan meet for the Annual Dinner, at which there is much laughter, good food, sufficient liquid refreshment, music, song, and a few speeches Recently, from four to five hundred have attended the annual dinner, a truly remarkable turnout.

One dollar of this goes to a subscription to the Long Islander, one dollar to the Alumni Association, and one dollar to a fund, the interest of which makes possible research and scientific work by members of the alumni association. This fund, governed by the Association and officers of the College, is, at this writing, of considerable size, and we hope it will become really large in the future. This year a new revision of the Alumni Register has been completed. We feel we have over 99 percent of correct names and addresses of living alumni. Until this listing was com- pleted many alumni did not receive the Long Islander, and therefore knew nothing of the activi- ties of the college and alumni. From now on they will be on the mailing list. The officers of the Alumni Association particularly desire each graduating class to con- sider itself alumni as soon as the degree of M.D. has been conferred upon its members. As an example, take this ye-ar's C373 class:-They graduate and scatter to the four winds, ending up as internes in various hospitals. Then, they move hither and yon and begin practice. Unless they inform the ofiicers of the Alumni Association where they are, how is one to know where to send the Long Islander? With this in mind, let me make an earnest appeal to all of you graduates of the class of 1937-either send your name and hospital address to the college authorities and so to the alumni officers, or else mail this information to Dr. T. S. Welton, 842 Union Street, Brooklyn, N. Y., Editor of the Long Islander. And when you open an office for the love 'o Mike let us know where you are located. You'll save the Alumni Association no end of trouble and money if you'll do this little thing. A postal-just write-john Doe, '37, 8877 101st Street, Goanus, New York. Fellows Cand girls of 1937, before you know it youlll be attending the doings of Alumni Day in celebration of your 5th year of graduation. Before you can say jack Robinson it'll be the 10th year celebration, and just like that . . . zingl . . . there you'll be marching in to the cheers of those at the Annual Dinner . . . your 25th anniversary. And mav you all live to become distinguished alumni and be present at the meeting of the 50 year class. Be an active alumnus, take an interest in affairs concerned with the college after you leave it, now and then take a day off and meet the old gang on Alumni Day, and with only the best of wishes that your lives will be ones of contentment, health, usefulness, and peace of mind and soul, I wave good-bye to you as students, and stand ready to cry, Hello-welcome-fi to you as alumni.

These were the words which started the ball rolling and a committee was chosen, headed by Bill Con- sole to look into the matter and start work. That night Bob Gromet had cheeze blintzes for supper and couldn't sleep. Next morning he was tired, but he had a plot. Professor X makes a startling discovery which will change the course of world events and make its owner fabulously rich. A gang of thieves, led by a smooth con- fidence man, steal the dis- covery, but leave behind a viii?-hsugig vital part. A great detective is called in to solve the mys- SQ?-Q tery. He searches through the school for the culprits and this gives us a chance to work out some classroom scenes. I don't know how it will end -we'1l have to work that 5 'fm part of it out. lg Fine, said everyone, 2 ul but then the questions started but then the questions started, Who is Professor X?,', What is the invention? , How do we solve it? and dozens more. Loehfelm was all for a show with the Al- bertina Rasch dancers. Eddie Woodleton w a n t e d some love interest. Console wanted a Minsky motif. So after three months of heckling, fighting, writing and rewrit- ing, the Junior Follies began casting for a show which would satisfy all, except pos- sibly the faculty-a show re- plete with songs, dances, humor, pathos, thrills, chills and fevers. Once the cast was chosen we were ready to get under way, but we accomplished nothing because the uleading lady would get tempermental and do his medicine assignment and so we'd need a substitute for that day and next day we'cl need another substitute and so on until May 28, 1956. On that day we had our dress rehearsal-one night before our grand opening, and what a night that was-no one knew his lines-the music was ragged-the gunmen weren't tough enough-the girls waltzed across the stage like longshoremen.

But no plan seemed good, so the show had to go on. May 29th dawned bright and clear and the boys got together and resolved to put the play over with a bang, but, when they peeked out through the curtains and got a look at the audience, they began to have cold feet, for they wanted to be doctors, not actors. But there was no backing down now, for already George Graham and his Melodiers were banging out the overture and the curtain was nearly ready to go up. The first scene showed the mugs in their underworld lair, craftily planning to steal the great discovery of Dr. Stale our famous Chemistry Professor. Duke Adler, who is wanted for swindling in half a dozen countries is to masquerade as a visiting professor and to thus gain entrance to the college. Once inside, he is to make it possible for his pals to steal the secret anrl then they will make a quick getaway. The profits from the job will be enough to make them all independent. In Scene two, Dr. Stale expounds the glories of his new discovery to one of the girls. Sper- mend, he says, is the most wonderful discovery of the age, for by its use women can have babies without the assistance of men. The girls are shocked at first, but they come to realize the values of such an advance, for, for the first time in history, women may be truly independent. and they agree to try it out. In Scene three the faculty meets to discuss the proposal of the junior Class, who wish to present a play based on current student life. During the discussion, Dr. Twist reads a poem, Dr. Shapely hauls out a series of long charts and vital tatistics and Dr. Shaver and Mr. Dwingle offer appropriate assistance. As the disscusion goes on, Dr. Laydown enters, totally oblivious of the fact that the junior Class is awaiting his pleasure at the PD final, and introduces the Hon- orable Sir Percival Worthington Butts of London Cwho is really our old friend, Duke Adlerj. Dr. Stale rushes in to tell the faculty excitedly of his discovery and places it in Dr. Rabbott's safe. The scene closes with Dr. Rabbott and Pro. Butts walking arm and arm to see the campus. The lights come on quickly and Professor Butts is seen opening the safe and stealing the Spermend gum, but he neglects to get the formula. The first act is over and down the aisle come newsboys dressed in interne uniforms and carrying loads of papers proclaiming in large headlines that Skunks Swipe Spermend Gum and telling of the dastardly theft which has been perpetrated against Dr. Stale and the Long Island Medical College. Professor Butts realizes his mistake and, as the second act opens, we find him and his muggs discussing their situation. They decide to stay around and see if they can locate the formula and Professor Butts will make a tour of the college in the hope of finding it. His first stop is the delivery room where he witnesses the hilarious labour of Charlie Iltis, assisted by Irv Krall. The babies CConsole and Loehfelmb bounce onto the stage and sign LOA . Next, Professor Butts goes through the classrooms, where he encounters Dr. Shapely at a preventive medicine lecture. His next encounter is with Dr. Laydown and his quiz section in PD. Dr. Bock, follows with an obstetrical discussion. He looks high and low, but no formula is to be found. In the last scene of this act, the Mugs decide to take matters in their own hands and they go to Dr. Stale's ofi'ice and force him to turn over the formula. Professor Butts, as Act three opens is unaware that his men have gotten the formula and continues his search. He falls asleep in the anatomy lab and witnesses the dance of the cadavers and listens to Her Name was Lil. Following this scene he enters the clinics and observes Dr. Ayatch and his students with Mrs. Fannie Bernstein in Surgery. Dr. Butts, in the last scene of the play, meets his men who show him the formula and ask him to leave at once. However, he still has a lecture to deliver and says he will leave afterwards. At the close of the lecture he is denounced as an imposter and the whole company pours back on the stage for the finale in which they proclaim that We want the old-fashioned way.

Dr. Babbott and the other members of the faculty came back-stage to personally thank the players for a splendid evening and to promise that future classes would be permitted to continue the plays. So, we now pass on the torch to the class of '38 and wish them the best of luck. Scene I-Underworld Hideout DUKE ADLER ,,.,.,.,..,.,...,., SLUG ZIPPO .,,.,,.....,..,.., GUTS GARAGHAN ......

C. in 1890-and one in Baltimore in 1897. He has gone to St. Petersburg, Florida, for the past nine winters. He has become a member of Fairfield Lodge of Odd Fellows, August 25, 1876, and was elected Noble Grand in 1879. He has been a member of the Masonic Order for about 40 years. He has been an examiner for 15 life insurance companies. Last April on his way from Florida to Maine he stopped here for the Alumni meeting. So many improvements had been made he could see but a very little resemblance to the old L. I. C. H. of 1879. It gave him pleasure to say that the teachers were very able men and had a fine way of imparting knowledge to their students and that he liked them very much. He thanks everybody from the president to the dean to the students, and especially the members of the Alumni Association for treating him with so much kindness and respect. -J. J. s., '57.

All about them on the four walls and in glass cases, are vivid dissections, models, charts and books, the fruits of centuries of labor. A student seems to be puzzled,-he does not understand the internal ear from the book description-he signals to an attendant for a model from one of the cases, and with this ally, continues in his struggle against anatomical intricacy. Ar least one member of the anatomy department is at hand at all times in this great museum- study hall which is open all day long to students, members of the faculty, and anyone else who may feel at times in need of some refreshment of memory, or in need of aid in the solution of a problem. Although still only a dream, Dr. Congdon hopes to realize this vision of a great museum- study-hall for Long Island in the not too distant future. Bangkok and Peking gave way to Brooklyn when Dr. Edgar D. Congdon succeeded Dr. Evans as head of the anatomy department at the Long Island College of Medicine. Dr. Cong- don's appointment was almost simultaneous with the rechartering of the medical school and the advent of a new spirit at Long Island which fosters the cultivation of new and different people and ideas from various parts of the country and world. He has brought with him a wealth of experience and knowledge from the Fat East, where he taught anatomy at the medical schools for several years. His anatomical actunen and talent for organization has been appreci- ably enhanced by his visits to the anatomical departments of most of the medical schools of Europe. These visits served as the basis of a report to the Rockefeller Foundation which elected him to report on the methods of anatomy instruction in Europe. One of the results of this European tour of inspection was the importation into this country for the first time of a method of coloring dissections which does away with dull, fading colors. This color technique, which employs albtunin as the base, was brought here by Dr. Congdon from Munich. He has described the process in the anatomical literature, and at the meetings, and the method is gradually being adopted by medical schools. The anatomy department has made many advances in the past few years-the number of preparations, dissections, charts, models, lantern slides and other slides are now ingthe thousands and are increasing at a rapid rate. Instruction in all three aspects of anatomy are given by any of the members of the department, as opposed to the high degree of detached specialty that characterizes most other anatomy departments. This method helps the student in his correlation. A system of teaching, successfully tested at Bangkok was instituted. It is discussed by Dr. Congdon in a paper soon to be published by the journal of American Medical Colleges. The following are its main points: 1. As much as one system at a time is taken up 2. Correlation of gross, microscopical and developmental anatomy. Developmental anatomy is presented before the gross discussion and dissection as an introduction, and the microscopic anatomy is taken up after the gross 5. journals, articles and abstracts are filed under descriptive numbers for each particular subject for easy reference and class presentation 4. Visual aids: colored dissections, charts, mechanical, wooden and cloth models, bone preparations, slides, plastelene models, photographic enlargements, X-rays, frozen cross-sections One H undred Seifevzty-two OF 1937 5 Dynamic teaching -every subject must be improved every year it is taught. Vari- ous colored cards are filed for this purpose: one for new ideas in anatomy and con- troversies in anatomical literature, another for any important suggestions, including those from students, as to good questions, and better ways of presentation 6. Stress on function-structure correlation through the weekly clinics and X-ray demon- strations 7, Both opposing views of the perennial pedagogical conflict are included in conduct- ing the course: Cal Teach facts and explain everything to the students Cfirst trimesterj Cbj Inculcate habits of concentration and discrimination, and permit stu- dent to work independently Cseconcl trimesterb 8 Students are urged to hand in ideas on course presentation and criticism of lectures, books and ideas in anatomy. This is done to improve the mental processes of the student and to improve the course. 9. Actual molding by students with soft clay of the viscera and bones studied is to be tried next year. This is an example of a student suggestion. Dr. Congdon invites the cooperation of the various departments in lending or giving the anatomy department interesting anatomical specimens which are especially plentiful in the obstetrical and surgical departments. At Long Island, the anatomy department has on one oc- casion been of assistance to the surgery department when Dr. Barber borrowed a dissection of the upper extremity to keep before him during one of his operations. Dr. Congdon, originally a pioneer in the study of aortic arch development which he carried out for the Carnegie Institute, is now working on the classification of fascia, this work, which is making order out of chaos in fascia, is published from time to time by the Anatomical Record. Dr. Ralph Blumberg, instructor in anatomy, has just a few months ago completed an in- geniously colored dissection of the vegetative nervous system, which Dr. Congdon calls the most complete he ever saw. The department hopes to present the dissection at the next meeting of the American Anatomical Society. Dr. George H. Paff, a product of Notre Dame and Carl Wiggers' laboratory at Western Reserve, is publishing a series of articles an cardiac physiology, studied on an embryological basis, in the journal of Physiology. Another advance recently seen in anatomy was the institution of student fellowships. Although really only a substitute for graduate instructors, these fellowships mean more research and more adequate teaching. The anatomy fellows to date are: 1935-36.

WILLIAM SCHWARTEN- Beginning with the Class of 1939, gifts were given to the department from freshman classes as spontaneous expression of the Classes' appreciation of the departments manner of teaching and treating perplexed neophytes.

Gordon, in whom the student senses a kinship to the master clinicians of the ages, a great obstetrician and a great man. Obstetrics is looked upon by the young medico as a specialty, the least closely allied to the kernel of medicine than any other. It seems, at first, a science in its own right with its own rules and regulations. Dr. Gordon definitely scattered the force of this belief in all his students for none can forget his profound and scholarly talks on the relation of diabetes and pregnancies, speculations on the variations of racial incidence in disease, informal discourses on this and that, which left one gaping with wonder at the beauties of medicine, its oppor- tunities and its vastness. After a month with Dr. Gordon, one is strong in the belief and knowledge, that there is no specialty in this profession, which does not embrace the very heart and soul of everything good in medicine, and which does not offer the greatest opportunities to apply all the medical sciences. One thing led to another and before we realized it, we were discussing medical ethics, ideals, opportunities, discussing, used not virtually but literally, for we cannot forget that stimulus that came when Dr. Gordon, with that sincerity and friendliness of his, would say to the student What do you think? After a session with Dr. Gordon the student was a mass of determinations, that he must read and read, that he must join his county medical society when he is graduated, that he must fight for and live by the ideals of medicine, that he must mingle with people and like them, for that above all, is the yardstick of success in medicine. Some of us were privileged to know those mental whips in medicine . . . Drs. Rabino- witz and Rosenthal at the Jewish and Dr. Howard at the County. Their knowledge was vast and unsurpassed, their genius unmistakable. The knowledge of these men is a tribute to the capacity of the mind of man and leaves the student with the greatest will and resolution that he must drive that mind of his relentlessly for it can really do great things when put to it. We could go on speaking endlessly of the clarity and brilliance of Dr. Rabiner's lectures on neurology, making of a maze of intricacies, tracts, nucleii, and such, complete simplicity, order, method, . . . we could speak of the wit and humor and culture of Dr. F. B. Doyle, of the intellectual honesty of Dr. Samuel A. Wolfe, of the knowledge, the modesty, and the humility of Dr. Andresen, the kindliness, the friendly informalities, and the teachings of that prince among men, Dr. Duncan, the vigor, the enthusiasm and alertness of Dr. Weymuller, and to no end of the qualities of hosts of others that inspired and guided us through these years. But if these men, these qualities, these policies, have enriched us and made the thorny path easier, what honors can we bestow upon that gem of a man who has guided the direction of these policies. Language is hardly eloquent enough to fully describe Dr. Frank L. Babbott, our President. Perhaps our most intimate Contact with him was at our Junior Plav, and who can ever forget his entrance into the dressing room after the play, where. midst grease paint and costumes, he stood and chatted with each and all, shaking hands with every member of the cast, quoting some lines from this or that poem which aptly fit the moment, and then, several days later, sending a letter to the class, expressing his satisfaction and joy at our his- trionic and terpsichorean efforts. Elegance, nobility, magnificence, princeliness are the qualities of this man-a regular fellow. And so the iournev was difficult but fruitful, and as the harbor is in sight, we write from aspiration and antagonism, as well as from experience. We paint those qualities which we do not possess. The poet admires the man of energy and tactics, the merchant breeds his son for the church or the bar, and where a man is not vain and egotistic, you shall find what he has not by his praise. In recognizing our shortcomings, can we improve them? M. D. H. '37 One Hmzclred Seventy-eigbt O 937 el. MA. 4-6961 Waller's Luncheon Curziiier - Ice Cream 103 ATLANTIC AVENUE BROOKLYN, N. Y.

Tonicine contains the hormones of the particular gland, together with strychnine sulphate and sodium glycerophosphate.

It repre- sents a combination of careful engraving, attractive layout and typog- raphy, fine papers, and smart, durable binding. In the Lichonian of 1937 we have used 135 screen halftone engrav- ings and line cuts on zinc. The body of the book has been set in Gararnond with Delphian initials. The headings generally employed are Elzivir, while Weiss and Trafton Script has been used in the opening section with Stellar on the divider pages. The Hippocratic Oath has been set in Goudy Medieval and printed in Brown Lake and Royal Red inks on Rhododendron cover stock, Telanian finish. The book is printed in Brown Lake on Warren's Lustro Gloss, 100 lb. basis, coated stock. The cover is stamped on the front board and backbone with brass dies. The book is half bound with Keratol on the front and back panel and backbone, and with Fab-Rik-O-Na, Indikloth Weave, on the front and back board. Head bands, double stitching, and linings are used to reenforce the binding.
