REUBEN FRIEDMAN. M.D. The Class of 1956 respectfully pays tribute to the memory of Dr. Reuben Friedman, who passed away on February 4, 1956. Dr. Friedman graduated from the Medical School of Temple University in 1916, the same year that the first Chiropody graduates received their degrees from Temple University. He pursued graduate studies at the University of Vienna, and in 1928 accepted the position of Chief of Clinics at the newly-organized Philadelphia Skin and Cancer Hospital. He was Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Temple's Medical School, and in 1942 was appointed Professor of Dermatology at the School of Chiropody. A short time thereafter Dr. Friedman was chosen as Faculty Adviser by Phi Alpha Pi Fraternity. Dr. Friedman was the author of Biology of the Acarus Scabiei, Story of Scabies and History of Dermatology in Philadelphia. He also made numerous contributions to the Archives of Dermatology, the A.M.A. Journal and the Journal of the National Association of Chiropodists. He was Past President of the Medical Alumni Association of Temple University and the Philadelphia Dermatological Society, Fellow of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, Diplomate of the American Dermatology Society and an honorary member of the Dermatology Societies of Italy and Cuba, the Chiropody Society of Pennsylvania and the National Association of Chiropodists. Dr. Friedman was an inspiring teacher, a distinguished practioner and above all a fine friend. And now that the strife is over And he has been laid to rest, There still shall come forth others His worth to manifest. 4

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Because of the outstanding loyalty to Temple University many times manifested by the School of Chiropody's alumni group, I take pleasure in welcoming to that body the splendid accession represented by the Class of 1956. Its lustre, I am sure, will both add to and reflect the brilliance of our roster of classes. Great days are ahead for the School of Chiropody—a future in keeping with the traditions of its distinguished past. For many years, its representatives have risen with such regularity to positions of responsibility in professional circles that we accept these honors as the deserved measure of our merit. It is right that we should, yet we must never be content. With the help of faculty and alumni, we shall continue to seek the means for adding to our services and to the proficiency with which we discharge those services. ROBERT L. JOHNSON President 6
