Sherman Business Manager • orer 934 The Record of the Temple University School of Dentistry Published by The Class of 1934 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Department of Pedodontology A WORD of Greek derivation meaning the science of the teeth of children; in other - - ■ words, dentistry for children. But why apart from the dentistry for adults? The child is in many ways different from the adult in his normal state and in the pathological conditions which affect the body. His reaction to disease and therapeutic agents differ from those of the adult. So his teeth are also different in many ways—susceptibility to caries, response to treatment, resistance to infection, etc. Therefore, the capability of diagnosing and treating, from an operative point of view, of an adult's teeth does not necessarily mean that the same dentist who is successful in this will also be successful in treating conditions to which children's teeth are subjected. Not only docs the technic and therapeutics differ, but the psychology of the child is different. The adult has an understanding as to the conditions and probable lesults if certain operative treatment is not done. He follows directions, opens his mouth and permits the operator to proceed until the operation is completed, even though he may at times suffer some discomfort. But the child does not realize nor understand what is best for him and has to be handled in an entirely different manner. Confidence in the operator must first be established. Certain information has to be given to him in such a way that he will understand what is about to be done and will realize that it is for his benefit that the operation is undertaken. Of course, there are many children who take things for granted and make very satisfactory patients, permitting all work to be done without any fuss or rebellion. These are ideal patients. On the other hand, some children need a little coaxing, persuasion or coercion in order that the operator accomplish his task with any degree of certainty or satisfaction. Our ideal should be to perform every operation for children, from the simplest to the most difficult, with such precision and thoroughness that it will be as permanent as possible—not with the idea that deciduous teeth need only a very temporary treatment because there will be other teeth to replace them. The condition, alignment and function of the permanent teeth are greatly dependent upon the deciduous teeth and the attention and care they receive. Sound teeth and healthy gingivae in a child's mouth predispose to sound teeth and healthy gingivae in youth and adult life of this same child. I ask that you, the members of the graduating class of nineteen hundred and thirty-four, go forth from this department beginning to appreciate the necessity of dentistry for children and the value of a child's teeth to him. Beady to do all you can for these little tots, so that their immediate suffering is relieved and any future suffering prevented. Black has said, “Extension for prevention, and now I say, “Prevention by extension —extension into the field of children's work. Be always ready to observe, learn and increase your present knowledge in order to understand children and help them to appreciate the necessity and value of a perfect set of teeth in a healthy mouth. With every good wish for your success, B. Elizabeth Beatty, D.D.S., Associate Projessor of Roentgenology and Pedodontology. 130 Henry Isaiah Dorr Research Society nPHE Society was founded by Dr. Frederic James in January, 19211, in honor of l)r. Henry I. Dorr, a pioneer in the field of research, and the donor of the sum of $50,000 for the endowment of a laboratory which is now one of the finest in the country. This organization rapidly became the keystone of scholastic activities and extra-curricular research, and the enthusiasm of its carefully selected members proved to be an inspiration for all others. Yearly more and more rigorous requirements faced the hopeful candidates, until now only five members are admitted out of the entire Junior ('.lass. These fortunate scholars are selected by the merit and originality of their theses, which are unsigned and numbered, with only the Honorary President and the author knowing the candidate's number. Thus, unbiased by ties of friendship or external pressure, the Senior members read and judge each thesis and select the winners without knowing their names. This year an innovation was instituted by President Waldman. consisting of weekly clinics in which special pathological cases were observed and discussed by individual members of the Society, thus contributing invaluable practical knowledge to the group. Under the guiding hand of Professor James, the members carry out various problems in research study, hold practical clinics, and accumulate a tremendous amount of information from the guest speakers who are the leaders of the profession. The Society was fortunate this season in hearing Dr. George M. Dorrance's lecture on “Hare Lip and Cleft Palate. Drs. James and C. Barton Addie on the subject of “Nutrition and Diet, Dr. L. Biddle Dufiicld on the “Radiographic Interpretation of Pathologic Third Molars, Osteomyelitis of the Jaws and Fractures. and Dr. Jacoby Bodmer on “Balanced Occlusion. During the Fiftieth Anniversary, the Senior members of the Society gave a demonstration of the use of Sodium Ricinoleate in treating various oral lesions, and were ably assisted by the new members. The entire day. devoted to the Department of Clinical Pathology, Histo-Pathology and Therapeutics, was a busy one for the Dorr men. In the afternoon, clinics by Dr. I. Weinman and Dr. Edward Subin held the attention of the organization, and the day was brought to a close by attending Dr. Rothner’s interesting lecture. It is the feeling of the Society that the year was well spent, and it is the hope of the graduating members that the ones who are to succeed them carry on the traditions and ideals of the Society and contribute to the field of research. 1G0 Dedication TO HIM WHO HAS INSPIRED THE STUDENTS WITH HIGH IDEALS . . .

McQuillen. holding the chair of Operative Dentistry - • and Physiology in the Pennsylvania College, retired from the faculty, and in 1863. with the assistance of other members of the profession in the city and state, and after the expenditure of much effort and the overcoming of great opposition, for charters were not as readily obtained in those days as now, he succeeded in obtaining from the legislature of Pennsylvania a charter for a new institution under the name of the Philadelphia Dental College. After securing a competent faculty and board of trustees the new institution Opened its first term in November, 1863. Its faculty consisted of: Dr. J. H. McQuillen, Professor of Anatomy, Physiology and Hygiene; Dr. J. Foster Flagg, Professor of Institutes of Dentistry: Dr. C. A. Kingsbury. Professor of Dental Physiology and Operative Dentistry; Dr. Thomas Warded, Professor of Mechanical Dentistry and Metallurgy; Dr. Henry Morton, A.M.. Professor of Chemistry. Dr. McQuillen was elected dean and held that office continuously until his death. In 1865 Professors Kingsbury and Morton resigned and were succeeded by Drs. George W. Ellis and Albert R. Leeds, A. M. In 1866 Professor Ellis resigned and Professor Kingsbury resumed his former chair. In 1867 Professor Warded resigned and Dr. I). I). Smith was elected to succeed him. In the same year two new chairs were created, one of principles and practice of surgery and the other of anatomy. Dr. James E. Garretson was chosen the incumbent of the former and Dr. Harrison Allen of the latter. In the following year, 1868. Professors Garretson and Leeds resigned. Dr. S. B. Howell was elected to succeed Professor Leeds. In 1869 Professor Kingsbury resigned and was made emeritus professor, and Dr. T. C. Steliwagon was chosen as his successor. In 1870 Professor Flagg resigned and his office was divided among the other professors. 8 JAMES E. GARRETSON A.M., D.D.S., M.D. Dr. Garretson was a pioneer in the field of oral surgery and has often been designated as the originator of the specialty of oral surgery. He brought to the practice of oral surgery the skill and manual dexterity of the trained dentist to which was added the broad culture ami intimate knowledge of the subject required of the educated surgeon. lb- was the author of the first work of oral surgery, namely: Garretson's System of Oral Surgery.” which was a monument to his lal ors and was the recognized textbook on the subject through its six editions, from 1869 to 1895. lie was the voluminous writer and contributed much to the periodical literature. There appeared in the Dental Cosmos alone some one hundred articles from his pen. The name of Garretson is syony-mous with oral surgery practically throughout the world. JOHN HIGH McQUILLEN MX)., D.D.S. The name of I)r. J. 11. McQuillen is well known throughout the world of dentistry as a teacher, a writer of great ability, a lover of research, and a practitioner of unusual skill. It was mainly due to his efforts that the Philadelphia Dental College received its charter, and due to his success as an organizer that this institution flourished and expanded. As the first dean of the Dental College he had to face one difficulty after another, hut his zeal, energy and tact served him well in the herculean work, and the prestige that our school now maintains is largely due to his tireless activites. In 1863 after obtaining a charter for the Philadelphia Dental College, he was honored by being appointed as the Dean of this institution and Professor of Physiology. He retained both positions until his death. 9 Thus far some change had taken place in the personnel of the faculty each year but one. During the succeeding eight years no change occurred, hut in 11178 Professor Garretson resumed his chair of Anatomy and Surgery, and Dr. Henri I. Dorr was made adjunct professor of practical dentistry. In 1879 the chair of dental pathology and therapeutics was established and Professor Flagg was chosen to fill in. Owing to the lamented death of Professor McQuillen during this year, some changes in the chairs were made necessary. Professor Stellwagen succeeded Professor McQuillen in the chair of physiology and his former chair of operative dentistry was united to that of mechanical dentistry. At the same time a new chair of clinical dentistry was established and Professor 11. 1. Dorr was chosen to fill it. In 1881 Professor Smith resigned and Dr. S. H. Guilford was elected incumbent of the chair of operative and prosthetic dentistry. In 1889 Professor Dorr’s chair was changed to that of practical dentistry, anaesthesia and anaesthetics. From then until the death of Professor Garretson in October. 1895- -a period of fourteen years—no changes occurred, hut after his death Dr. H. C. Boenning was elected to the chair of anatomy and surgery, and Dr. M. H. Over, for many years the assistant of Professor Garretson, was chosen adjunct professor of Oral Surgery. In January. 1896, Professor S. II. Guilford was elected Dean of the faculty. In the spring of the same year Professors Dorr and Flagg resigned, owing to ill health. Dr. I.. Greenbaum was thereupon chosen to succeed Professor Dorr, and the chair changed to that of materia mcdica, anaesthesia and odontotechny. Dr. II. H. Burchard was chosen to fill the place of Dr. Flagg and made special lecturer on dental pathology and therapeutics. In October, 1896. Dr. Crver resigned to accept a position in the dental department of the University of Pennsylvania. Few changes have occurred in the deanship of the institution. Professor McQuillen held that position from the establishment of the institution until his death in 1879. He was succeeded by Professor Smith, who held the office for two years. 10 MATTHEW H. CRYER Ml).. D.D.S. Matthew H. Cryer «1849-1921 . was a student of and lalcr assistant to Dr. James E. Garrelson. and l ecame known throughout the world as an authority on cranial anatomy. His accurate knowledge of the anatomy of the face and cranium fitted him for the most delicate surgical operations which he performed in these regions. I)r. Cryer devised numerous improved methods of sectioning the jaw for the correction of prognathism. He also became widely known for operations which had been so successfully taught by his predecessor. Dr. Gar-detson, for the removal of tumors in and about the oral cavity. Dr. Cryer became Professor of Oral Surgery in the University of Pennsylvania Dental School in 18%. which position he held until a short time before his death. He was the author of a l ook on “Facial Anatomy which is today the most authoritative textbook on the -uhject. The chapter on anatomy of the face and jaws in Cray’' Anatomy” is practically a product of Dr. Cryer’s efforts. Dr. Cryer was horn in Manchester. England, in 18-10. MARSHALL II. WEBB D.D.S. Dr. Wehh (.1811-1883). was horn in Chester County. Pennsylvania. October 28. 1814. Although he died at a comparatively early age. being only thirty-nine years of age at the time of his death, he attained a national reputation as an expert gold operator which has been equaled by very few in the annals of dentistry. He received his professional education in the Philadelphia Dental College and practised in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Early in his professional career he developed an utter contempt for amalgam, which he discarded entirely as a filling material, and began filling with gold all classes of cavities, no matter how difficult or inaccessible. Dr. Webb’s success in the field attracted nation-wide attention, and in his contemporaries commanded the greatest admiration ami praise. His biographer and professional colleague said of him: “No man toiled harder than Dr. Webb, ami probably no one has done so much to elevate the standard of dentistry. Ilis operations were faultless in point of execution and there was an elegance almut their finish that was truly fascinating. The skill which he attained gave him the prominence in his profession surpassed by none and, though dying so young, he fairly was entitled to rank as one of the most distinguished of American dentists.” 11 Professor Garretson assumed the office in 1881 and retained it until his death in 1895, after which Professor Guilford was elected to the position. In 1905 Dr. Leo Greenbaum was elected assistant dean. In June. 1906. Dr. Guilford resigned the office of dean and Dr. Greenbaum resigned the office and Dr. Guilford was re-elected dean. The college has experienced few changes in the presidency of the board of trustees. The first incumbent was Rev. Richard Newton. D.D. At his death he was succeeded by the Hon. James Pollock. LL.I)., ex-governor of Pennsylvania, who retained the office during the remainder of his life. General James A. Beaver. LL.I)., ex-governor of Pennsylvania, was elected to the office after the death of Mr. Pollock. The federation with Temple University, in the spring of 1907. caused a change in the board of trustees and Russell H. Conwell was elected to the presidency. At the time of the incorporation of the Philadelphia Dental College there were but three other dental schools in the country—one in Cincinnati, one in Baltimore and one in Philadelphia, with a combined attendance of less than one hundred pupils. Today there are in the United States more than fifty institutions in which dentistry is taught regularly, with a total yearly attendance of between four and five thousand students. In the forty-one years of its existence the Philadelphia Dental College has graduated no less than 3.000 students. Along with other schools it has advanced from a two years’ course of four months each to a three years' course of eight months, with supplemental spring and fall courses covering two months more. From an annual curriculum that required but thirty-four lectures from each professor, it has developed until more than one hundred didactic lectures are given annually by the incumbent of each chair. In addition to this the clinical facilities have been enlarged year by year, giving to the students opportunities for the attainment of manual dexterity undreamed of years ago. One of the most prominent advances in recent years has been the establishment of technic courses in the freshman and junior years, cultivating not only the hand, but the eye and brain, as well as adding immensely to the symmetrical development of the pupil. The Philadelphia Dental College was the first to introduce into it curriculum a course in oral surgery, and the first also to establish a hospital for the treatment of diseases of the oral cavity. The late Professor Garretson was the first to make a special study of such diseases and to constitute their consideration a part of the 12 JAMES TRI MAN D.D.S., LL.D. Dr. Truman (1826-1914 ), was horn at Abington, a suburb of Philadelphia, November 22. 1826. Throughout his career I)r. Truman was a prolific contributor to the literature and in 1890 became Editor of the International Dental Journal, which position he held until that journal ceased publication in 1905. He quite fully recognized the intrinsic possibilities of his professional calling, and it became his life-problem to demonstrate by his work, by his educational efforts, by bis contributions to the literature and by his active participations in tin- deliberations of the dental professional associations his convictions as to the larger possibilities of usefulness that dentistry had to offer mankind. lie had a masterly command of the English language and a forceful ness in style of writing that carried conviction with his utterances. Dr. Truman died in Philadelphia. November 26. 1914. SIMEON H. Cl ILFORD A. 11., M.A.. PH.D., D.D.S. Simeon Hayden Guilford, dental surgeon, was born at Lebanon, Pa, in 1841. He received his preliminary education in the public schools and at Lititz (Pa.) Academy, and was graduated from Franklin and Marshall College in 1861 with the degree A.B., in 186-1 with the degree A.M.. and in 1866 with the degree Ph.D. He then began tin- study of dentistry, and was graduated from the Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery in 1865 with the degree D.D.S., and in 1884 he received the honorary degree D.D.S. from the Philadelphia Dental College. In 1881 he was elected to the chair of operative and prosthetic dentistry and orthodontia in the Philadelphia Dental College (Temple University), and from 1896 to 1918 lie was Dean of that institution. He was the authoi of “Nitrous Oxide: It’s Properties, Methods of Administration, and Effects” (1887); “Orthodontia” (1889); The American System of Dentistry” (1886); chapters in The Textbook of Operative Dentistry” (1900-3-5); was a frequent contributor to dental journals, and was regarded as an authority on orthodontia, lie died in 1919. in his seventy-eighth year, after a short illness. ! dental curriculum. With him the trained hand of the dentist in conjunction with the medically educated mind, made possible operations never before attempted. The Philadelphia Dental College in its many years of existence has lost but five of its professors by death, but of those who have thus been removed three were conspicuous lights with reputations that were world-wide. All three were men of indomitable energy, wise judgment, greatness of mind and nobleness of character. Each was a master in the art of teaching. Two of these men at the time of death occupied the office of dean of the college and the most distinguished member of the faculty. Dr. McQuillen was the founder of the school. He labored unceasingly for its proper establishment and then, through all the remaining years of his life, faithfully devoted himself to its development. Practice, comfort, health, and finally life were sacrificed in order that the school which he loved might become a temple of knowledge worthy of respect of all men. Dr. Garretson was as ambitious as his predecessor for the advancement of the institution with which he was connected and for the true elevation of the profession which he loved. He was a man among men. capable of inspiring in others the confidence he felt in himself, and by his council and acts and teachings stimulated those under his care to the attainment of all that is noblest and best in life. Dr. Flagg, who was connected with the school from its organization in 1863 until his death in 1902, was a teacher of rare magnetism and power. His investigations and experiments with plastic fillings and his various writings upon dental subjects caused him to be as well known abroad as at home. This brief record would be incomplete without some reference to Professor C. A. Kingsbury, who ably seconded the effort of Professor McQuillen in the establishment of the Philadelphia Dental College and was a member of its first faculty. He served the institution actively for six years and then continued in the honorary position of “emeritus” until his death in September. 1891. He proved himself a competent and faithful teacher, and his love for the institution and devotion to its interests were manifested in a multitude of ways. During its existence two changes of location have been made necessary by the growth of the college. Upon its establishment it was located at the northwest 14 OTTO INGLIS I MLS.

In 1886 he was graduated from the Philadelphia Dental College, now the dental department ol Temple University. Dr. Inglis became demonstrator of operative dentistry in 1888 and in 1900 was elected professor of pathology and therapeutics, retiring three years ago.

American Dental Association, Dental Club of Philadelphia ami of Olivet Lodge, No. 607, F. and A. M. Dr. Inglis died on February 5, 1931. at his home, 304 Park Ave.. Swarthmore. Pa., in his sixty-eighth year. WILLIAM II. TAGGART D.D.S. Dr. Taggart 1855 1933), was born in Freeport, llli-nois. March 23, 1855. lie received his professional education in the Philadelphia Dental College, from which institution he received the D.D.S. degree in 1878. He located in Freeport, Illinois, later removing to Chicago, where he conducted a successful practice for many years. Dr. Taggart was an unusually skillful technician and of the inventive trend of mind. He was continually experimenting on various methods of procedure and eventually developed, in 1907, a method of casting gold inlays by the invested pattern procedure. This invention by Dr. Taggart has probably influenced. as much as any other one thing, the character of the practice of dentistry since 1907. In fact, it is not too much to state that the casting process revolutionized the practice of dentistry, enabling the profession to deliver more efficient service with the expenditure of much less effort than was involved in the making of the gold filling. 15 corner of Tenth and Arch streets. There it remained until 1887, when it removed to a new and larger building on Cherry street below Eighteenth. Outgrowing these quarter in the course of eight years, it was decided to purchase ground in a new locality and erect a large and commodious building adapted solely to its own educational purposes. In 1896 a suitable location was found at Eighteenth and Hamilton streets and, after preparation of satisfactory plans, ground was broken and the erection of the building was begun. The corner stone was laid with Masonic ceremonies January 13, 1897, and the structure completed in August of that year. The building was opened for the fall term on September 1, 1897, and formally dedicated on October 4. In honor of its founder the hospital has been named the Garretson Hospital. It occupies a large portion of the first floor of the new building, and constituted of a public ward with seven beds and a private ward with two beds. There were also a nurses’ room, kitchen, beautifully finished bathrooms and etherization and recovery rooms. • Recognizing the advantage of the university connection, the hoard trustees and the faculty of the Philadelphia Dental College entered into negotiations in the spring of 1907 with Temple College for the purpose of affiliation with the institution. Temple College was a young and vigorous university established by Dr. Russell H. Conwell for the purpose of advancing education and helping worthy men and women. It offers over fifty different courses of study, including theology, law. medicine, pharmacy, liberal arts and sciences and preparatory courses. fhe federation of the Philadelphia Dental College with Temple College made no material change in the general regulations or system of instruction and did not change the name of the dental school. The ideas of the new college classification put it into close alliance with the medical school, enlarging the opportunities of the dental students in medical or surgical studies. The new board of trustees of the dental college had no other purpose than to aid in a great benevolent purpose for the good of mankind. It is the intention to open to a large class of men of high character, good education and clear minds the opportunity to become dentists of the first rank. 1« DR. L. ASHLEY FAUGHT D.D.S.. F.A.C.D. L. Ashley Faught was horn at Atlanta, Georgiu, on March 29th, 1857. In 1875, he attended the Philadelphia Dental College, graduating in February of 1877, receiving the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery. In 1878, he was elected demonstrator of Physiology and Dental Histology in the Philadelphia Dental College and Cureator of its museum. In 1879 he was elected to a lectureship on Physiology in the Philadelphia Dental College. On May 21. 1906. he was elected Professor of Operative Dentistry. Dental Pathology and Therapeutics in the Dental Department of the Medico-Chirurgical College. In 1916 he became Professor of Operative Dentistry, Pathology. and Therapeutics at the University of Pennsylvania under the terms of the merger with the Medico-Chirurgical College. On July 19. 1918, he was elected Professor of Operative Dentistry in the Philadelphia Dental College. On June 28. 1932. he retired as Professor in the School of Dentistry of Temple University, and on July 5, 1932, was elected as Emeritus Professor of Operative Dentistry. On November 23. 1933. Dr. I..

This was supplemented by a degree from the Medieo-Chirurg-ical College in 1911. He taught in the Temple I niversity School of Medicine as well as tin- Dental School, and also at the Philadelphia General Hospital, where he was chief of the Oral Surgery service for some time. He was the Honorary President and the namesake of the Carlton Nelson Russell Oral Surgery Society, which he fostered and. by virtue of his connections, brought outstanding figures for speakers. Dr. Russell was a major in the army during the World War, having had active service in the medical corps. Several papers, results of his varied researches ami experiences, have been published. One of the most active members of the faculty passed to his final rest May 12. 1933. Professor Russell represented one of the firmest bonds between the Dental School and the College in so far as extra-curricular activity was concerned. The Conwell Gate 18 RUSSELL H. CONWELL The Founder of Tempi e ini versely 19 CHARLES E. BECKY A.B.. LL.B., LL.D. I1 res)den I of Temple University To the Class of 1934: I pon the occasion of Temple’s recent Fiftieth Anniversary celebration, Dr. Albert L. Midgley, Secretary of the Dental Educational Council of America, declared, in an address, that a new day has dawned for dentistry—a day which brings new obligations, with new opportunities.” In its ninety years of organized development, dentistry has made substantial progress along scientific lines, and has come to be recognized as an outstanding division of public health service. In his address Dr. Midgley cited striking examples of this forward progress. These include practical anaesthesia; highly successful research in bacteriology and immunology; antiseptic and aseptic surgery: the X-Ray and radium; the astonishing progress in procedures for the conservation of public health: the creation of the nursing profession and the more recent oral hygiene auxiliary to the profession; and the development of bio-chemistry and specialism. And yet, withal, the surface merely has been scratched, and by continued assidiouft application and initiative it is possible for any of you to join the ranks of those who have pioneered in an increasingly useful profession. In extending felicitations to you upon your graduation, may I quote from Dr. Midgley s closing remark-: “The new day of dentistry is, I believe, the day of steady confidence, sincerity and altruism. The light that shines upon the future should reveal men serving one another more faithfully and intelligently than ever before.” Very truly yours, Chas. E. Beury, President. Faculty A Message to the Class of 1934 TT is very gratifying to me, and I greatly appreciate the privilege of once more being requested to contribute to the annual class book of the Dental School of Temple University, and I welcome this opportunity to present very briefly some of the ideals and responsibilities which will be placed upon each graduate of the class of 1934 when they take their places as members of a comparatively young, but very important, health service. In years gone by there was some doubt about the real value of dentistry as a division of public health service, but whatever question may have existed in the past, our present and immediate future activities no longer remain uncertain. The position which dentistry occupies today is largely due to the invaluable aids which scientific progress has brought to many activities of everyday modern life. Throughout the civilized world people are beginning to understand the importance of dental services. Governments, municipalities and philanthropists are furthering this recognition by establishing infirmaries and hospitals devoted to dentistry alone. School boards and heads of public institutions are demanding oral health. Never before in the history of the world has dentistry attracted so much attention or received so much consideration as at the present time. With this recognition practitioners of our specialty have themselves grown to a wider appreciation of their usefulness, and have everywhere manifested a willingness to extend their aid to the poor as well as the rich. Within the past quarter of a century it has been pointed out with dramatic effect that diseases of the mouth and teeth are frequently responsible for many organic and systemic human ills. A full recognition of this fact became a matter of immense importance, and immediately dentistry, previously excluded from recognition as a worthwhile factor in the conservation of health, and almost universally ignored by the medical profession, was compelled to assume a serious responsibility, a responsibility which rests with it today, and one which you must assume and continue to put into force. It will therefore become your immediate duty upon entering the field of dental practice to support and help to carry out such methods of recognized treatment as will best maintain the health of the mouth through an effective oral service. You must be able to thoroughly master preventive as well as curative measures, and to cultivate a full understanding and a thorough appreciation of dentistry’s obligation to the community. If you carry out these brief suggestions, your success will be assured, and the dental profession will profit much through having you become a part of it. I. Norman Broomell. Dean. I.

The flight of time has brought us to the parting of the ways and as classmates you shall soon scatter and engage in the practice of an honorable profession. The acceptance of the diploma on graduation day carries with it a debt or obligation that you will be required to sustain throughout the life of your professional career. Your real responsibilities of living are just beginning and the multiplicities of obligations to others shall from now on be ever on the increase. The obligations to your Alma Mater, your profession, your patients, your God. your country, and yourself shall require that you continue to strive toward the highest ideals of character. Much will be expected of you in your chosen community of professional service. Your opinions will be sought, your actions and deeds observed, discussed, and recorded in favor or disfavor according to the interpretation of the Golden Rule. Add to your ability and education by emulating the example of lives well lived. Join the capital C club: Character. Charity, and Cheer. Subscribe to life membership now.

Al’s propensity towards studying the dictionary was great. To learn a few new words a day and use them correctly during a conversation was his aim. lie often made us take notice of his extensive vocabulary when he did decide to speak. To please everyone was APs sole idea and he did not fail to do so on that occasion. A lover of the fine arts w ith the desire to frequent the local opera houses, Al showed us that his endeavors are to attain the better things in life. Perseverance will surely bring you to the top of the ladder. Al. SOLOMAN H. AVERBACH “So ” Ph i ladel ph ia Pennsy 1 van ia TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Assistant Business Manager Dental Review”. ’32: Dental Explorer Staff. Jewish Student Association; All-Dental Dance Committee. 31. Sol was never to let anxiety obstruct his good work—whatever was his assignment it was always consummated. We hope it will always he that way. Sol never comes too early for a good seat. He could sit in front, for he was quite confident. He always helped the needy and was a fine student and friend. The fairer sex was SoPs crowning glory. His business ability with the females was “par excellence” for he had a great selection and turnover. We hope that he will always have the upper hand and never be taken over by some designing female. We wish Sol all the success which will enable him to reach his goal in the Dental profession. 44 SAMUEL A. BERNSTEIN “Saw” Trenton New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY A Cl Alpha Omega Fraternity; Dance Commit- tee; All-Dental Dance Committee. ’33; Dental Explorer Staff; Haas Society; Temple University Hand. The Trenton Flash coming over the Lincoln Highway hit the Dental School and has remained there, ever being that good natured and friendly Sam. A hard worker and diligent student, Sam made the grade, being above the average. Sam was quiet and reserved and very seldom spoke of his doings with his female friends, but we have our suspicions (after his Junior year). His pleasant personality and kindly disposition augmented by his perpetual smiling countenance made him well liked by all. We extend to him our best wishes for a successful and bright future. RICHARD R. BIDWELL “Dick East Rutherford New Jerse ALFRED COLLEGE Psi Omega Fraternity: Addie Society; Rusca Society. Dick is always in for a good time and his “fits of laughter may be heard at any time around the school. However, he can become business-like at a moment’s notice and show you he is up on present-day problems. He is especially adept at riding a bicycle which he says is one friend he can always rely upon. 48 RUSSEL SCHAEFFER BLIELER “Russ” Allentown Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Hr2 I Xi Psi Plii Fraternity President, '31. Secretary, 33; Student Council. 31, 32: Anatomical League; Addie Society; Cameron Society; Football Squad. ‘29: Varsity Baseball Squad. 32, 33, 31. Russ started early to be an active member in class organization, being appointed temporary chairman of the class before the Freshman elections. He carried on during the first two years as student council representative, and climaxed bis leadership as president of the Zips. Russ is able always to inspire confidence in those he meets, and so will probably have little trouble in establishing a practice. He always manages to get all his work done, but is rarely seen with nothing to do. Russ has been interning at the Hahnemann. and we hope that this will he his start in following his father as an oral surgeon. HENRY A. BLOMQUIST “Henry” Richardson Park Delaware UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE Ruscu Society; Haas Society. Helpful Santa Claus should Henry be nicknamed because a seal was always reserved for him, especially during exams. Many fellows depended upon the bubbling over knowledge that Henry gathered before an exam. Henry was also a crown and bridge expert, for almost all the bridge work done by him was unsurpassable. We know more than one student who depended upon his digital dexterity to solder their crowns and bridges. It seems Henry was never loo busy to lend a helping hand to some less fortunate student. Keep it up. we don't have to worry about your future—it is bound to be successful. HAYES B. BRADY “Brady’ Palmyra New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Psi Omega Fraternity: Treasurer, Essig Society. Brady, beside being a good operator, has been interested in. and has tried to learn the tricks in. every branch of dentistry. There’s only one thing that makes him angry and that is. when he receives a letter from a patient two days after an appointment which slates that the patient cannot keep the appointment. Hayes is an exponent of the Palmyra Hop' on the dance floor. ARTHUR CHARLES BRODE -Arthur Tamaqua Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY A me man and in big ways, that is Arthur all over. Such sincerity, resourcefulness. and confidence in his own ability. There is something about this pleasing fellow that has found favor with his classmates, instructors and patients alike. Wonder what is the secret of his success? Imbued with the proper spirit of his profession. Arthur leaves no doubt in our minds as to his future in the profession. fe TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Mii.ton is (he senior partner of the firm Brode-Kaplan Corporation.

When Mike is not wrestling with some problem of student government, he usually may he found in the clinic. Anyone who has attended Mike's dances at Camden will know what he means when he says, “That it is a great night for it. We hope that Mike will get fees as high as the grades he got in school so that lie may even maintain that jolly disposition.

TT ROBERT H. BUECKER Audubon New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY llaas Society: Secretary 34; Dance Committee. This big handsome ladies’ man was always rushing about doing something and everything. Bob’s persistence in bis work made him a proficient and capable operator. These traits will bring him in the end the credit be justly deserves. He already has happiness; it is therefore our lot to bid him Godspeed to success. SIDNEY MANNING BURSTEIN “Si r Bridgeport Connecticut JUNIOR COLLEGE OF CONNECTICUT 2EA Sigma Epsilon Delta Fraternity. Chaplain; Dental Explorer Staff; Haas Society. Sin was a strange mixture. At times be gave the impression of being a happy, carefree fellow and at other times he was very quiet and serious. When Sid was in the mood he was easily the outstanding cut-up in the class, and his witticisms and humor will long be remembered In the boys. His greatest ambition was to impart a bit of Yale or Bond Street to our c ampus, this he accomplished by his tricky coat and trousers combinations, of which he had many. In closing we might add that Sid was capable, thorough, studious and equal to any task or activity he undertook. JOHN L. CAHALAN “Jack” Kingston Pennsylvania ST. THOMAS COLLEGE James Society. Treasurer: Rusca Society; Cameron Society; Anatomical League; Newman Club; Addie Society. Never has any one in school experienced a solemn moment when the suave, nonchalant person named Jack was present in his midst. This characteristic beams on his pleasant “Irish” face so greatly that even his patients become hypnotized by it. This applies not only to adults, but also to children among whom he is especially-favored. Another merit for his success is that great power of wit. At the most depressing times, he is ready t offer some enjoyable humor. It is probably one of the reasons why he is never found alone while at school or at social gatherings. There is only one way to prove that there is a surprising success in store for “Jack and that is merely by watching his clever digital skill. FELICIA N V.

Felix matriculated at Temple with a greatly desired determination to succeed in his chosen profession. As a student and operator, he was up to par. His friendly-disposition and pleasing manners won for him many devoted friends and followers. Felix was an exponent of the proverbial adage, “Smile and the World Smiles with You.” and maybe the world hasn’t smiled at him. Success and fame are sure to follow this pleasant smile. JOHN L.

CHASIN “Tim” Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Tim’s trouble was dial he never had sufficient time in the clinic to work on the entire population of Philadelphia. A hear for punishment and a whale of a worker. Chasm could be seen in Dr. Matthew’s office during his spare moments digging up trade for the school. A quality of conscientiousness, which will go along in bringing; him success, is his long suit in the game of life. The boys wish him luck for a prosperous future. JOHN ALBERT COFFEY “Red” Syracuse New York NIAGARA UNIVERSITY Corresponding Secretary ’33; Dorr Society. Behold, a classmate who is sagacious in his judgment, rich in his wisdom and endowed with that admirable quality of leadership. “Red Top Johnny will always be remembered as the brilliant secretary who replaced the class in the favor of Dr. James. So. with sincere regards to your future, we wish you clear sailing. JACOB L. COHEN “J ake” Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY A20 Delta Sigma Theta Fraternity: Chairman of King Committee: Rnsca Society: Finance Committee. Jake might never have been a dental 9tudent, hut some good friend directed his path to a field where his qualities could well be displayed. Practical jokes and mild mischief were Jake’s hobbies. Me never seemed depressed because he never had reason to be so. His work in school was always rated well. Jake could always be relied upon for assistance in any new undertaking. His desire lo work with all his heart gave him more associates than he desired. A jolly disposition and a willingness to work will surely harvest good profits for Jake. HARRY COOPERMAN “Harry” Philadelphia Pennsylvania VIl.I.ANOVA COLLEGE Haas Society: Anatomical League. Harry was very infrequently seen and seldom heard. It surprised all of us when and how Harry did his work in school, yet his requirements were always done well and completed on time. Harry knew how to make friends. He never had to be asked twice for assistance, nor for advice, giving both readily and wholeheartedly. He knew all the “short cuts” in dentistry. He never had to work too hard to get his points and always had time, at the end of the day, to rest. Making the grade in your career should be easy. Harry, as vour methods are those of an experienced practitioner. ESTHER CRAMER “Esther Norwich Connecticut CONNECTICUT COLLEGE FOR WOMEN: TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Addie Society: Rusca Society: Haas Society. Always ready i lend a helping hand— that's Esther. Eel no one say that she is not an efficient operator. Those glittering gold foil fillings would gladden the heart of any Professor of Operative Dentistry. Temple may well be proud of Esther and we will be disappointed if we do not hear of her in the very near future. A bright and successful future for her sincere purpose and efforts. RICHARD S. CRAIN MER “Dick Camden New Jersey FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL COLLEGE HM Freshman Dance Committee; Dental Explorer Staff; Xi Psi Phi Fraternity; President Addie Society: Dorr Society; Essig Society; Haas Society; Anatomical League; I. ,Y. Bromell Society. A PLEASANT, sensitive character, capable of keeping his own council, even to the point of seeming extremely secretive. Dick has labored among us. unobtrusively doing things. He has shown an unusual ability in organizations, both as pledge master for the Zips and as President of the Addie Society. Dick was married at the beginning of his Sophomore year and now has a family consisting of his wife, dog and himself. Best of luck with the Jersey Boards, Dick. EUGENE W. DENNY “Gene” Philadelphia Pennsylvania FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL COLLEGE Psi Omega Fraternity; Cameron Society; Rosea Society. Gene in his quiel way has been one of the most diligent students in the class. Despite his laudable propensity for hard work he had found time to give freely his undoubted talents whenever called upon. He is an active worker on committees in his societies and his advice is often sought. His main interest is exodontia and the hope is expected that he will be as skillful extracting fees as lie is teeth. It goes without saying that he carries with him the best wishes of his friends and classmates for every success and happiness. EMANUEL 1.

House Chairman. 33. Chaplain. '31. One of our upstate representatives was none other than Crystal who hailed from Pottsville where big things are done. Manny, always with a smile on his face, was one of the best liked and most amiable students. Having a conscientious strain in his mind, he was always a hard worker. For Manny we predict a bright future. He has the personality and ability to make a success in his chosen profession. Best of luck to a real classmate. ! 4 THOMAS DILWORTH “Tom” Ph i ladel phia Pennsy I van ia FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL COLLEGE Psi Omega: Vice-President Freshman Class; Cameron Society; Rusca Society; James Society. Tom is the inventor of that famous endearing term “Butch” which has the peculiar attribute of irritating certain sundry students when applied to them. Toms River and Barnegat Bay are going to see less of one of its leading skippers when Dilworth opens an ofiicc and has to spend more time at dentistry. And by the way, if he can conduct a dental practice as well as he can navigate a sloop his success is assured. Tom's amiable character has made friends of all his classmates. If there was anything he could do for anybody, there was an immediate response. With bis ability to make friends and his natural operative ability, we feel safe in predicting a bright future. MICHAEL J. DRISCOLL “Mike” Philadelphia Pennsylvania VFLLANOYA COLLEGE HfM Anatomical League; Cameron Society; Rusca Society; Chairman of Class Day: Xi Psi Phi Fraternity; Russell Society. Mike seems never to take things too seriously. Although he is a good student and does his work conscientiously, he never is too much concerned with those small phobias which are forever usurping the minds of most dental students. His favorite pastime is practical joking either at school or at S. S. White’s. Mike has the red-head's characteristic, intrepidity, and is usually successful in his venture. We wish him this same success in establishing a dental practice. JACK L. DUNNE “Jolm” New York City New York CITY COLLECE OF NEW YORK AD James Society: Secretary. Ad die Society; Dental Explorer Staff; Alpha Omega (Iota). At the beginning of tin Senior year, we found John “looking had . However, after a few doses of his “smart medicine , he was up to his old tricks again. The “Chief (nc Dunkelsberg) opened his factory early tliis year, but prospects were very low. We understand that he just cleared his overhead. Being capable of doing anything, we know that his success is assured in any field of dentistry, and this University, we predict, will he very proud of him some ten or fifteen years from now. for what he will have accomplished. HORACE H. ENGLANDER Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Quiet, reserved, studious, are three terms that fit Horace well. Horace seemed to come to school with hut one purpose in mind and that was to learn dentistry. He worked hard and his efforts were well rewarded. Horace impressed us with his niceties of speech and manner. Rarely did he deflect from his position of coolness and easiness in the face of difficulty. It is not strange that with this quality he made numerous friendships. A bright, successful future we predict for him in the years to come. JAY II.

The class will always remember Rube for his willingness to lend a hand both in work and exams. He was a good student and a diligent worker, possessing that ardent desire to make the best of everything. His hardships were many but he overcame all obstacles to come out on top. All of us poor mortals have our weaknesses and Rube liked his women, playing with their hearts as well as he played pinochle. As many things came in pairs, thus Fishman and Bernstein were inseparable. Lots of luck to Rube, for he deserves it! HERBERT FLEISHER “Herby” Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY A Cl Alpha Omega Fraternity; Co-chairman Freshman Dance Committee; Dance Committee, ’32. Every class must have its “Beau Brum-mel”; Herbie was ours. No girl was safe with him around. Don't talk to him too long or he will sell you sterile retention points or kid you into going West to make good. With his ready smile and subtle naiveties, he will long be remembered by the class. Lots of luck. Herb. GO JOSEPH S. FOLCHEK “ oe” Plains Pennsylvania ST. THOMAS COLLEGE Haas Society Rusca Society. Joe would never tell you, but we will. He got places scholastically and socially, but is never loquacious concerning his achievements. His business contacts, for Joe has had experience selling automobile parts, will be a great asset when he begins his practice. Perhaps Zuke could give a better line on Joe in his private life. Joe believed in letting “his actions speak louder than his deeds' . In your horoscope, we see that the future holds a bright and shining path for you. We know that you will be successful in your chosen profession. ALFRED W. FORLANO Ar Ph i lade 1 ph ia Pennsy 1 van ia TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Rusca Society; Haas Society. Al started his education with a reputation of possessing mental agility. It is needless to say that he has survived this compliment. Early in his freshman year, he entered into a partnership with Gas-taldi. That partnership has weathered all the storms created by the faculty and others. Al has a unique and enviable characteristic, anything he desires to accomplish, he does. We all know he will be a success by the aimful process he possesses of desiring everything. Good luck to you.

RAY W. FRACE “Ray” Easton Pennsylvania MORAVIAN COLLEGE Secretary Psi Omega Fraternity; Rusca Society. Ray’s creed is. “There ought to be a shorter, easier way to do this piece of work,” and “let the patient wait awhile and they’ll believe you are a busy man. Frace is a rather quiet, methodical student with a belief that all difficulties will be “ironed out eventually. It seems there has been a reason for numerous week-end trips to his home town. LEROY RAYMOND FRANTZ “Buddy” Philadelphia Pennsylvania LA SALLE COLLEGE Buddy was not a self pusher, but rather placed himself usually in the background. He was one of those self supporting musicians who carried rhythm and syncopation in all his actions. Buddy, it is certainly an accomplishment for yourself and a surprise for us to understand how you managed to crowd so much in your limited time. Socially, ah—now, we are in your own special environment, so let it suffice to say that brunettes are also members of the fair sex. We have yet to see you with one. We take this valedictory to bid you the success you so richly deserve. JOSEPH FREEDMAN “ oe” Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY I BA Varsity Tennis Team.

With Sid Grossman. Joe formed a Damon and Pythias relationship, the likes of which we have never seen before. Joe was affable, neat in appearance, had good taste—clean cut. so to speak. He did his work well, perhaps a little slow, but nevertheless, well. Joe was a good student—a good and regular fellow and we’re all for him—Good luck. MARTIN IRWIN FRIED “Marty” Penn’s Grove New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY SEA Sigma Epsilon Delta Fraternity; Denial Representative of Avukah Society: Class Day Committee; Rusea Society; l aas Society; “Dental Review”. Although Mart hailed from the wilds of New Jersey he was a true city sophisticate. W ith his derby, chesterfield, and spats, he had a hard time convincing people he was a dental student instead of the Mayor of Pennsgrove. Marty was genial, good natured and big hearted: always willing and always helping. He possessed native intelligence and ability to grasp things quicklv, which aided him greatly in his studies and dental work. Martv was a member of the Jewish Students’ Association of Temple University. WALDO G. GAMBA “Wally” Williamsport Pennsylvania LA SALLE COLLEGE EiM Xi Psi Phi Fraternity; lllue Key Fraternity: Cameron Society; Haas Society; Russell Society: Essig Society; Anatomical League; Executive Committee. '32. Wally has always taken his dentistry seriously. He believes in taking advantage of every opportunity of perfecting his technique that presents itself. In the beginning of the junior year, while many of us were still trying to raise courage to take our first patient into the clinic and give him a “prophy”. Wally undertook to do some practical bridge work. hen he is not on the floor or in the prosthetic clinic he may usually be found in one of the labs having a grand time, making a plate or a bridge. Wally’s thoughts for a post graduate course in oral surgery will probably be carried out with his characteristic tenacity of purpose. He will in all doubts prove successful. 0 SAMUEL GARDNER “Sam” Atlantic City New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY SEA Sigma Epsilon Delta Fraternity. Historian. Chaplain; Haas Society. Vice-President; I. iX. Hroomel! Society; Constitution Committee. ’3 k Hail the stormy petrel of tin class. There were no mincing of words with Sam. He was frank and earnest, and held nothing hack. Sam possesses self confidence which will never be shaken, and when he sets out to do something, he docs it. Ho was careful, exact and studious. There was no beaten path in any field with Sam. He was original and of an inquisitive nature, taking nothing for granted. Because of Sam’s idiosyncrasies there seems very little doubt that the world at large will hear of some outstanding dental research work in the near future. JAMES A. GIORDANO “Jim” Philadelphia Pennsylvania MLLANOW COLLECE HfM Xi Psi Phi Fraternity; Addie Society; I. N. llroomell Society; Haas Society: Essig Society. Jim spent a great deal of his time in the prosthetic laboratory together with Henry Watson, making anything from plates to orthodontia appliances, and still had enough time left to do his clinical work. Notwithstanding this work, he seemed able to present the appearance of an arrow collar ad. He will he remembered for that unfailing smile which was particularly sunny every day at noon when that telephone call came for him at the Zip house. We wish him the best of luck in his profession. 05 BARNETT GOLDBERG “Barney Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY A20 Delia Sigma Tlieta Fraternity; Chairman of All-Dental Dance, ‘33; Anatomical League; Russell Society. Barney very early impressed us as a skillful operator. The first impression was last in . He never had to worry about meeting his requirements. To be first in everything was Barney’s desire. Not only was he first in making his points but he also was first to complete his examinations, and he always made good grades. With these qualities and the fact that Barney could be relied upon for a free pass to any first rate theatre in town, made his relations with his fellow-men. in and out of school, quite pleasant. His efforts as a leader were well displayed. REUBEN GOLDMAN “Rube” Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Haas Society: Class Day Committee; All Dental Dance Committee, 32, ’33; Dental Explorer Staff. Small in stature, but a Napoleon. If there is any business to be done, ask Rube or don’t ask Rube—he will help anyway. Rube, of the tremendous “chest expansion . was chuck full of energy. For some inexplicable cause this energy was always directed toward finances. He is a glowing personality—brilliant scholastically, and of a youthful appearance with a worldly attitude. SIDNEY L GROSSMAN “sur Newark New Jersey NEW YORK and TEMPLE UNIVERSITIES 4 BA Phi Bela Delta Fraternity; Rusca Society. After matriculating at N. Y. U. and Temple in the College of Liberal Arts. Newark’s future dental man suddenly took a serious aspect on life and entered the dental school. Although a strict and adherent disciple of the Goddess Morpheus. Sid always had a habit of awakening and bobbing up at the correct time. This probably explains why Grossv gracefully took a dental course in his stride. Sid was quiet, unassuming, studious and industrious -the latter after a fashion— add the name of Joe Freedman to this and you have a composite picture of Grossy. DAVID GILMORE GRUBB “Dave Philadelphia Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY President 31; Ring Committee; Auditing Committee ’34; Anatomical League; Addie Society; Cameron Society; Dance Committee. 31; Recognition Committee in “Temple eus ; Amalgamated Dance Committee. Dave’s pleasant personality won for him the election as class president in his Freshman year. In this capacity, he was successful in welding the class into a functional unit. Under the direction of Dave and his committee the class enjoyed the best dance given by the school. His clinic vprk, while not of great volume, is of qual:ty. We are confident that his many qualifications will win him a successful future. f 7 ALEXANDER LOUIS GROWER “The Greater” Portland Connecticut WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Anatomical League. Just as his Macedonian namesake, lie indulged in the extremes. The “Greater likewise worked hard, ate well, and slept profoundly and consistently during his four years of lectures. He created quite a stir as a coming orator, philosopher, and scholar. His guides were such men as Schopenhauer. Thoreau. Aeschylus, and Daniel Drew. Al was truly one of our outstanding men due to his unorothdox antics and scholastic abilities. SAMUEL GUBELBANK “Gooch Philadelphia Pennsylvania LA SALLE COLLEGE SEA Vice-President. ’32; Sigma Epsilon Delta Fraternity: Cameron Society: Dental Explorer Staff. Gooch, as everyone knows, is a well-liked fellow, and of course it is because of his radiant personality. Gooch is a serious fellow when there is work to be done, and for a man to mix seriousness along with good cheer and fellowship, means only-one thing in the end. enormous success. Gooch, as we are told, is wasting no time in getting started and is already planning his first steps in building for the future along the lines of his chosen career. We see nothing else ahead except a deep reward and a crown of success for Gooch, and we hope for nothing but the finest for him in time to come. “Good luck.

An unassuming, quiet, dignified, scholarly main whose fine advice can always he relied upon. For those who needed help he was always ready to give it. An aspiration to become an authority in some branch of dentistry has been staunchly held to since embryonic dental days. That Joe will achieve success and honors is undoubted. HERBERT HOLLAND “Herb” Easton Pennsylvania LEHIGH UNIVERSITY. NEW YORK UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MUSIC Addie Society; Dental Explorer Staff; (). A. T. I Epsilon). Herr is a mixture of cheerful joviality, good nature and enviable personality, blended with the qualities of a gentleman. By nature he is the “athletic type , a hammer thrower, and malleting gold fillings should be comparatively easy. It is needless to remark about his ability as an operator, and, as a good student. he lacks nothing to be desired. The new interne at the Easton Hospital will certainly be as much an asset to the community in which he practices as he was to the institution from which he graduated. Farewell! JOSEPH M. HOSKER “Reds” Old Forge Pennsylvania ST. THOMAS COLLEGE James Society: Russell Society: Xeivman Club; Anatomical League. Reds—our authority on gold-foil fillings!!! The picture of nonchalant manhood as he strolled along the halls of our great University, Hosker always managed to assume the air of an eminent authority in regard to the particular subject on hand. We are sure that Reds will acquit himself nobly in the capacity of a dental missionary in the wilds of Scranton. We sincerely wish him good luck.

Here is a veritable bundle of character, cleverness, and efficiency, all wrapped up in one. This young lady has brought upon herself a shower of praise from her instructors and fellow students. Through her own merit, along with a dynamic power of lightning energy and digital skill, she has won the throne of a clever operator coupled w’th remarkable speed, that every dental student dreams about. Personal charm has led her to he the center of many informal gatherings on the clinic floor, social and otherwise.

Although small in stature, Nate would always attempt the bigger jobs. Nothing seemed too large for the “blonde giant . Many a young lady has admired the good looking operator in the dental clinic, but Nate has never returned the admirations reflected upon him, as his heart was sold long ago. It seemed that Nate would have trouble in plugging an upper tooth, but the new Titter chairs have helped him immensely in reaching for a distant cavity. His indifference to jesting concerning bis size was only one of bis good qualities. His quiet and unassuming attitude brought him many friends amongst students and faculty. PHILLIP S.

Always up on his requirements. he kept ahead in his studies, winning the Alpha Omega Scholastic Award in liis Junior year. Ilis work in the operative department is beyond question. As a loyal and conscientious worker he achieved the respect of his associates in various activities. The maintenance of the character he exhibited during his undergraduate days will certainly assure him of success in his chosen field. JOSEPH S. KAPLAN “Joe” Camden New Jersey TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Secretary of the on-Fraternity League; Dues Committee, ’34. In accordance with the regulations that govern the conduct of a good student, Joe found little difficulty in establishing himself as a good fellow. He and Brody could always be found together discussing the difficult problems confronting embryonic dentists. His diligence and sunny disposition will long be remembered In his classmates.

His friendships many and sincere. His honesty undoubted. His sincerity and good will unquestioned. Many of us have enjoyed his subtle humor, his facetious witticisms, and have always known him to he a “regular guy”. Born to be a diplomat and advisor, many have asked his advice on certain pertinent questions. Were he to open a “Walter Winehell” column, “would our faces be red”? May your good judgment and honesty continue to be your guide to a successful future. 73 WILLIAM J. KELLY “Bill” Staten Island New York COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Rusca Society. President; Cameron Society: Dental Explorer Staff; Temple “Dental Review” Staff. THERE are a great many things we could say about the “Maestro” Kelly. Too frequent haircuts is not one of his failings but he is probably the worst of the cut ups of S. S. White’s Fraternity, and is the thorn in Heacock’s side. His proclivities in class oratory have earned him a wide reputation. Seriously though, if Kelly should be lacking in any respect he has an invaluable asset in his suave manner. He has a variety of attainments which should stand him in good stead in his professional capacity. There is no question that Bill has a great future in store for him, and we sincerely wish him success. JACOB KIVIAT “KivC9 Brooklyn New York c. c. N. Y. James Society: Rusca Society. Although Ki i has been somewhat of a silent person to us. we feel that beneath his mild, unassuming exterior, there link the qualities which usually distinguish a successful business man. He seems possessed of an enviable, quiet disposition and a pleasing personality. He seems especially interested in his chosen- profession and will be a credit to his home town. Best wishes for a generous share of success. IRVING KO'CHE. Ph.G. “Irv” Ph iladel phia Pcnnsy Ivan ia LA SALLE COLLEGE AQ Alpha Omega Fraternity: Essig Society; Russell Society; Corresponding Secretary, '34. Our friend Irv was one of those complacent. unassuming fellows who had little to say, desite the fact that he had great powers of ability and initiativeness. He could always be seen in the company of Herb Fleisher doing sufficient worrying (before and after an examination) for the entire class. Besides giving prophecies and taking roentgenograms. Irv managed to ply his old trade of dispensing drugs across the counter. In a few months we expect to see some new drugs on the market. Good luck, Irv. VINCENT G. LAWLOR “Vince” Mahnnoy City Pennsylvania TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Secretary Haas Society; Addie Society; Rusca Society; Intramural Sports, '32-’33. We can thank Ma-Ha-Noy City for sending this pleasant and agreeable personage to our portals. Vince has that rare ability found in so few, of making friends and holding them. He was always being mistaken for his roommate Ted by everyone except his intimate friends. V ince never seemingly over-exerted himself in his work, but nevertheless his was always of the highest quality. His social and scholastic paths converged very amicably and neither suffered under his sane rule. Some day we expect to hear of a prominent dentist with the monicker of Lawlor. Good luck to you, and let's say only au revoir. 75 CHARLES E. LEBEDA “Charlie” West Caldwell New Jersey UPSALA COLLEGE Rusca Society: Essig Society: Haas Society. Efficiency to the ’nth degree.

VICTOR VINCENT LESKE “Vic” Bootlon New Jersey LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE Rusca Society; Essig Society; Anatomical League. Jersey’s contribution to the Temple of learning. A carefree boy with blond hair who raised havoc with his fan mail during his sojourn with us. Rather quiet and unassuming, his charming manner has stood him in good stead. Although Vic had at times difficulty in presenting himself for his morning appointments; it must be said that his promptness could never be questioned for any social want. Since we have known him and enjoyed his friendship, we wish him success for his future in life, the same benefits we have derived from him by just knowing him. PAUL P. LISCIO “Paul Bridgeport Connecticut CONNECTICUT JUNIOR COLLEGE Haas Society. Soft spoken, of a serene dignity and always right. Paul was in the true and strict sense of the words, “both a gentleman and a scholar. Many times it has been said, “Silence is Golden, which perhaps explains why Paul excelled in his gold work. With his quiet, inoffensive, unhesitating manner, we have no doubt but that Paul will forge to the front. Paul was the true sage and his advice in scholastics as well as other matters was always regarded highly. He was a steady thinker, a studious and a hard worker. EDWARD F. LOFT US “Ed Scranton Pennsylvania ST. THOMAS COLLEGE Haas Society; Rusca Society. Ed’s amiable personality made for him a host of true friends. Ed was seldom heard from but always was equal to any task that confronted him. When in a talkative mood he demonstrated that fact by making you understand what he was talking about. Often, when smoking his after dinner cigar, he would reminisce about the activities “Up on the Hill in Jessup. In all probabilities his thoughts were not about the town itself, but of a certain young lady. Loft us and his room-mate Law lor presented a problem because they were often mistaken for one another.

Since “all good things come in small packages”, it is not hard to account for the great popularity of little “Albie”. His scholastic, clinical and technical efforts leaves us with no doubt as to his ability as a dental surgeon. Add to this, his ieadv smile and winning personality, and what more could you ask for. Good luck. Al. and may the good people of Lancaster learn to appreciate you as much as we do.

He was one of the very few in the class who endeavored to the extent of a degree and he should, as we know he does, cherish it. We all will remember him for his fun loving ways and eagerness to attend any and all of the social functions.

He is possessed of that typical Irish wit and humor, and one is never quite sure whether or not Mac is serious. Mac is a hard worker, quite expert in exodontia, yet is always worrying about getting through. What about those parties you are always attending? Whether Mac specializes in exodontia or practices general dentistry, we are sure he will succeed. 79 CARL E.

He obtained his knowledge of plaster as a contractor during the Florida boom. Having earned a tidy sum he decided to broaden his knowledge, so Dentistry will be favored by such as he may offer.

Our robust Ronald won his way into our hearts by his carefree and unhurried actions. He never seemed to be busy or rushed for time.

He was also as smooth and collected as a drop of oil. Notwithstanding this fact he was both a scholar and gentleman. He finds that Pedodontia offered him a great deal, explaining this by saying. “Take cure of the children and the mothers will take care of you. Charles’ keen business acumen will reap for him a great harvest. You have our sincere wishes for your continued success. STANLEY J.

Roxie gave his friends an impression that he was always thinking and worrying about his school work. This was a part of his thoughts, but the other part was on a “brunette” who lived on the opposite side of the river. We all know that Roxie has a very bright future ahead of him and we all wish him the sincerest happiness and luck. THEODORE A.

We salute the artist. His manual dexterity was clearly evidenced in the beautifully carved amalgam and gold fillings. Such adroitness is still causing the fine arts to bemoan the fact that lx chose dentistry as his life work. His sense of aesthetics, however, was not limited, hut far reaching, as shown by his taste in the choice of feminine pulchritude. In this respect- we sincerely hope that 1 . will not become a Southern gentleman, but that he will bring his Virginian belle to the Quaker City and continue being our staunch and steadfast friend.

The Dentists' Sons of Seven (may they emulate their distinguished Fathers) participated in an admirable display of Children’s Dentistry before the First District Dental Society Meeting on December, 1933. Some excellent fillings were shown, including two gold inlays for an eight-vear-old child. No doubt this was the first time an operation of this kind had ever been seen. The second time that the Members of this Class were brought to public alien-o'clock. Every Member of the Class did a man’s job that day. and I wish to express lion was at the Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration of Temple University. I will never forget the moving and competent exhibition of Children’s Dentistry and Child Management which you all showed on the 14th of February, 1934, from one to three now and always how much I appreciated your efforts to make the Clinic so successful. A photograph is contained in this Record that will serve to recall that day’s accomplishments to your minds. Please adopt the slogan and impart to all who can hear that you have been advised to offer free Dental Service where required to all children under six years of age. Cultivate the amenities of life by hearing the best music, by reading good hooks, and by associating with the finest people, and add to all these the educational assets of as much travel as vou can afford. Look upon travel as an investment whose dividends will be collected every time you read a good book or hear well-informed people talk. All this will increase your joy of living and make you a more desirable associate for cultured people. “ ’Tis not my wish to labor long for Fame, Then sip her wine. This task is mine, To send my soul out greater than it came.” May I express my appreciation here for your very kind courtesies to me. and wish for each of you some full measure of this Good Old Worlds Blessings. Theodore I). Casto, D.D.S.. F.A.C.D. Class Advisor. 107 Memoirs of a Senior TTOW well 1 remember the time I matriculated as a Freshman at the Temple University School of Dentistry. Did 1 have difficulty in registering? It took an entire year to convince Mr. Forestahl. Even then, there was no stone unturned in my past by the examining board. They even required a post-card size photograph of each applicant—perhaps they were forming a Rogues Gallery. “Do you have any digital skill?”. I was asked. “Yes.” 1 replied, and so entered upon the pathway of my chosen profession, hardly realizing that the laboratory would be one of my many expenses. The anatomy department started the ball rolling, by presenting us with a mysterious box, the contents of which rattled in a highly suggestive and horrifying manner. Upon inspection. I found that my box contained all the bones of the human skeleton. For weeks and weeks 1 had nothing but bones on my mind; I carried bones, studied hones, drew bones, talked bones and dreamed bones. Sleep was becoming foreign to me. while cigarettes and black coffee came into vogue. The class had heard with certain fear and terror of the long rows of cadavers on the cold slabs of stone in the dissecting room. After long anxiety, the opportunity to dissect them finnally arrived. What a scenery! Human bodies lying on the slabs waiting for the students to start dissection. Timidly we approached them, and carefully we handled them. In a short time we became acclimated to the surroundings, but it wasn’t long afterwards that the exhilarating and refreshing odor increased our appetite to such an extent that quite a few of us carried our lunch and used the Trapezius muscle as a dinner table. With the passing of time came the “Ides of May”? Professor Hewson was now in his glory. “Sit down, my young friend.” was his invitation to take part in a prolonged series of questions, the answers to which fell upon our shoulders. The expectation of this, while standing about two days in line, acted as a strong diuretic and hydrogogue, and in some cases, even as an emetic. And so, those of strong constitutions passed from the Ides of May into that stage of feeling which has no counterpart, that of being free of the required study of anatomy. While we were becoming experts in the histology laboratory, discovering unknown specimens, we were easily disillusioned by our able professor in discovering our unknown. He would remark by saying: “If you can't dance don’t blame the music.” His “Paris models’’ were very original. His proverbs and originalities will always be an everlasting memory. “Are you vise or othervise?”, “Always keep your finger on the fine adjustment”. “Either you are talking or I am talking”. The crowded and dirty conditions in the prosthetic laboratory certainly were not conducive to the ideal construction of a twenty-eight point contact denture. We were greatly handicapped by the limited number of technique models. What impressed me most was the. “Attention to the roll call!”, yodeled by the professor. Upon the table he would stand, giving demerits for lack of attention. Twice we were threatened for the excess use of plaster and were told that he would have to dispense with it if this continued. Some of us decided to buy all the plaster so that the market on plaster would be cornered. 108 The Saturday’s greeting by our qualitative chemistry professor was, “Snap out of it—you could just as well have slept home and saved your parents money.” Un-kowns were our nemesis! Many times we were told that we would never become dentists and to give up the idea: nevertheless we were determined and stuck to our port. Believe me, waiting for those marks was a terrible suspense and worry. It was a grand and glorious feeling for those who passed clear without any summer preparation for re-exam. Sophomore We had hardly begun to appreciate the restfulness of morning sleep, when the call for registration began. Some of us worked at summer resorts; some as life guards, some as salesmen, and various fields of activities. How else could this ambitious personage avert the boredom of inactivity, and incidentally, the tragic results of non-payment of tuition, also the Shy lock methods of loans? We were making preparations for a strenuous sophomore year. As freshmen we had been initiated; now it appeared that we had a goal far beyond our maximum capacity of work -martyrs to the cause. We fought and struggled to survive this terrible pace. When the study of Pathology was started. I began to wonder how man could be subjected to such a variety of destructive influences and still survive. No sooner had I learned the symptoms of a disease than I imagined that particular ailment. This feeling, I later learned, was shared by many of my classmates. How proud were we of being able to recite long lists of high-sounding names of diseases. Some of us were walking dictionaries. A few students believed that a “Biopsy” was two autopsies. Physiological Chemistry was one subject we covered completely. The hardest part of our study was to memorize structural formulae. We tried to formulate a ditty but no result. Each formula extended across the paper, with chains of “H’s” linked to each symbol. What a conglomeration! It looked like a crossword puzzle and was as solvable as Einstein’s relativity theory. No food should be injected unless its contents were known, therefore in order to eat at Bed’s stand the formula for a dressed up hot dog had to be analyzed. No solution vet, many of us began raising moustaches in our sophomore year. This attracted our professor’s eye, and caused the remark that a “moustache does not make a dentist. Soon we were hurled into the hectic study for the year’s final exams. The cramming period continued for days. All sorts of stimulants were taken, such as caffeine citrate (smart medicine), black coffee, etc. A smart student, who was an habitual user of smart medicine, was the original user of this stimulant for a reason known to him only. We would wake up in the morning of an examination in a sweat, and feel that we had forgotten all that bad been crammed in the night before. Preceding each examination we were advised by our anatomy professor to write every question before answering any question, any correction, errors, or omissions would be counted as a goose egg. 109 The courses so far had been of doubt, discouragement and dissolutionment and fear of failing to pass. At no time could we know our scholastic standing. We were only advised to keep a stiff upper lip. Jolts and bard knocks to which we were continually subjected only made us fight more fiercely and cling more tenaciously to our purpose to become upperclassmen. Then home, saying good-hve to our colleagues, hoping to see them in the fall as advanced students, and prepared for the worst. Junior Year Clinic practice, while gowns was the ultimate goal towards which the green freshman and worldly sophomore cast envious and longing eyes, hoping that some day their dreams would come true. To the Seniors we were just a nuisance. With an air of sophistication the juniors paraded the infirmary and the corridors, as if to say “touch me”. The greatest fear was to examine the first patient. How the hand would tremble. “What's wrong, Doctor?”, the diagnostitian would say. The word Doctor would stimulate us and into a strange interlude we would go. (“Am I cowardly? Why, I am a doctor I must control myself. I The trouble of the first patient began. It took four hours to complete a prophy. Those were the hectic days with the problems so perplexing and seemingly unsurmountable. Amalgam fillings took four hours to polish until a glittering lustre would he obtained. This was done to elevate the standard of silver on par with gold. Woe unto the student who was in the section of the “Amalgan Specialist”. Our honorable professor claimed that good work was important above all. however, when the points were read a different story was heard. We finally decided to bring our patients in the morning section, so that no afternoon tea would be had by the demonstrators. On Saturday, rollcall would be called at 5.30 A. M.. ready to sign for a chair. How cold it was waiting outside the building, and what a relief when the warm days arrived. Of course we cannot forget our librarian. Miss Coffman, who became a great influence in our extra-curricular education. Her personality and assistance were a great influence, and our troubles of searching for materials for our theses was greatly relieved through her efforts. The coziness and delightful atmosphere of the library was enhanced by the presence of the pharmacy students, whose voices overcame everything. There is one characteristic which has been handed down from every generation of dental students, and that is the borrowing instinct. It must he hereditary for it can neither be escaped nor outgrown. Many a student intends going into the dental supply business. A Sherlock Holmes would have a great job on hand to check up the who's who lost department. No two eyes are sufficiently powerful enough to watch. In the crown and bridge department, students even borrowed pennies to cast their inlays. no It was a matter of survival of the fittest. Shoulder to shoulder we marched, all striving to obtain chairs in the morning. The prosthodontic department requirements kept us stepping trying to complete them. “Corega became the password to some of us. Senior Year Strengthened in mind and body, the incoming Seniors returned from their vacation. Many became very conscious of their P. A. (personal appearance), wearing spats. This added attire was explained by the statement that it protected the feet from the cold. Others raised moustaches to give them a professional appearance. remembering what their chemistry teacher said in the freshman year. It appeared that the Kurd system had been established in the clinic how to turn out the greatest number points per hour. The first extraction was very successful, the tooth being readily removed from its socket without any difficulty. Right there and then some of us decide to become Oral Surgeons or Exodontists. The orthodontia clinic was one place where the seniors recuperated from their period of strenuous labor on the floor. Marriages, dances, personality complexes—subjects of that nature were solved and discussed in the Crown and Bridge laboratory. The great mad rush for impression taking for Pedodontology! We were very anxious to obtain a Blue mark from the professor during the Pedodontology demonstration. What a feeling of relief it was to have paid up the last part of tuition including graduation fee. As the close of the Senior year drew near, we began to look back with a sense of satisfaction on the work accomplished during the four year sojourn. As a first step in the realization of our great investment in dentistry we will uphold the highest ideals that our Alma Mater set for us. Ill The Class History 34 TT almost seems like a dream. But a short while ago we entered this institution, ■ - still dazed by the trials and tribulations of a hectic pre-dental course, and the nerve-racking interview with the Entrance Committee—and now we are about to practice our chosen profession. Four years crammed full of action and hard work, examinations, requirements, bills, heartaches, and beautiful dances, sped by. leaving us to reminisce of the days which are now a memory. Our history is not only a record of events but of deep friendships, sacrifices both on our part and on that of our parents, pathos and laughter, defeat and success. Thus our story is a precious fragment of Life itself. It is not a romantic tale sung by the bards, of the supernatural conquests, it is a true, vivid account of the Springtime of our careers, voiced by the class, to the resolute, rhythmic beat of our March of Progress. As members of the class of 1931. just entering the freshman year, the question in everyone's mind was, “What’s this all about?” The upperclassmen aided us, but in the wrong direction, and we remained in the fog. Thanks to some of their suggestions, we shopped for retention points, annealed teeth in the fire before dissecting them, bought unnecessary paraphernalia, and behaved every inch like a freshman. When the lectures began we were showered with Prof. Hewson’s origins and insertions, anatomical snuff boxes and hot boxes, with l)r. Rusca’s grooves and fissures. and Prof. Ryan’s stories of the dumb Pennsylvania Dutchman. Prof. Fischelis knocked us for a “loop of Henle ’, and hit us with his Paris Models. Prof. Scott, not to be outdone, gave us “leaky valves” and “blood transfusions , while Dr. Shac- lerle put on a Sherlock Holmes act and made us search for the hidden elements. • As the weeks rolled on. we decided to leave the fog alone, and to let it pass away of its own accord after we graduate. Our minds were next turned to politics and we held an exciting election. The temporary Presidency went to Gregory Salisbury bv one vote margin over David Grubb. Thomas Dillworth became Vice-President. Carl McMurray Treasurer, Cecilia Karkoski Recording Secretary. David Waldman Corresponding Secretary, and Russell Bleiler as Student Councilman. One of the first acts of the officers was to extend from the class the post of Class Advisor to Dr. Abbott. He accepted, and through his kindness and good will, we were conducted out of the maze and daze of the unfamiliar surroundings. At the permanent elections the Fates reversed their wish and David Grubb won by a vote, the rest of the officers retaining their posts for the year. Executive Committee was appointed with Joseph Herrman as chairman, and a tribunal consisting of the officers of the class. At the next meeting Gregory Salisbury was appointed to the position of the Class Historian. The Constitution was written and ratified, and the class settled down to the routine of the school. The outstanding event of the year was the Frosh Hop held on February 20th at Hotel Warwick. The Dance Committee was headed by Joseph Ferraris. The Hop was a success in every respect, and was pronounced, even three years later, as the most outstanding dance ever held by the Dental School. The Crystal Ballroom was filled with the gracefully swaying couples of students, their wives, prospective better halves, blind dates, and frolicking profs. Now. as we think hack of the glorious music, our feet begin to misbehave. No wonder so many of us came to Dr. Shacterle’s class in tuxedoes. We simply couldn't sleep that night! Soon the spring rolled around with its full measure of worries, exams, and resolutions to study. Nights of cramming, strong coffee, the Ides of May and . . . home, sweet home to await nervously that fateful yellow report from Mr. Forrestal. The summer was over. We returned with our numbers somewhat lessened. Again we felt the sword of Hewson and Ryan, Inc. Anatomy orals, P. ('hem. tests and other forms of Spanish Inquisition faced us. However, we were true to form and as traditional sophomores knew almost everything. A change in the tenure of office occurred and Carl McMurray was President, Sam Gubelbank. ice-President. Louis Rigberg, Treasurer, Waldo Gamba. Recording Secretary. Frank J. Roes, Corresponding Secretary. The Class was informed that this year an All Dental Dance was to he held instead of separate class affairs. The date for the event was set for April 8, 1932. This, of course, set the class aflame and for a long time the ruling of the Student Counc'l was held up to a good deal of bitter sentiment. The entire year was spent in many delightful pastimes such as melting I ncle Sam's dimes in metallurgy lab. under the sweltering heal of the blowtorch, tasting urine in P. Cheni. laboratories, chasing streptococci around the Bacteriology lab, and studying the “Humbug stories of Prof. Fischelis. Typodonts were our next worry, and then, the approaching oral with Prof. Hewson. The year was ably climaxed by the All-Dental Dance at the Penn A. C. with Harvey Marburger and Knight supplying the music. The two orchestras played beautifully and when the night was over we Hocked to the downtown dives, or what have you. and discussed the events of the night w ith the fair companions over light refreshments. Wasn't it a thrill when your lady friend introduced you to her chum dorm girl as “Dr. ? That alone was enough to put all of us Sophs in good spirits for the rest of the night. When class elections came for the Junior year, David Foxman was elected President. Louis Rigberg, ice-President, John Coffey. Recording Secretary, Manuel Diamond. Corresponding Secretary, George Sandman. Treasurer, and Michael Budney. Student Councilman. After a hectic summer filled with State Board Partials. days of anguish awaiting the reports, and then months of work in order to meet the coming tuition bills, we assembled in school as worthy Juniors. With our instruments in readiness and all fees paid, we put on our white gowns with tremulous, excited fingers, and fearfully approached the Diagnostic room. Under our air of nonchalance we hid the nervous tension that gripped us, and began our first practical work on the clinic floor. How we sigh now. as we think back of our first patients, the poor souls! 113 Points came to the tune of demerits. Chair races, long waiting lists, standups, clinic rules all absorbed us, until we were buried in the avalanche of things to do, not to do, etc. Prof. Kusca and his 300 points, Prof. Casto and his 50 X-Rays, Prof. Essig and his plates, all began to haunt us. However, this was but short-lived, for we enthusiastically entered upon the practical phases of Dentistry. Many of us received bids to various societies, and while attending their evening meetings and lectures, we learned a great deal from the leading authorities in many specialties, who were the guest speakers. Since we were the only class in the institution to ever have Prof. Kusca throughout the entire school career, we met and elected him as our class adviser. The election was unanimous, and we were happy to learn that the newly elected head of Operative Department accepted the position of Class Advisorship with pleasure. One of our immediate tasks was to procure our class rings, and due to the activities ol Chairman Jack Cohen, the class soon displayed beautiful rings, some of which, however, were destined to disappear and become, along with the frat pins, part of the jewelry collections of our fair Juliets. After the mid-years were over, and we faced the last lap with the “do or diev spirit, we settled down to the real hard work. Before long most of us completed all of our technical and practical requirements, and with a sigh of relief relinquished the clinical privileges to those who were less fortunate in securing their patients and points. The All-Dental Dance that year, controlled by our class, was a brilliant affair. Barnett Goldberg, the Chairman of the Dance, left nothing undone in his efforts to make the event a success, and when the dance was over, all four classes were thoroughly satisfied with the results of the night. The elections for the Senior Year resulted in the following officers: President, Theodore Praiss; Vice-President, Rocco Turchi; Recording Secretary, Robert Buecker; Corresponding Secretary, Irving Koche; and Treasurer, George Sandman. Soon after the elections we were engulfed by the examination tides, and when the summer came, we could do nothing but breathe a sigh of relief. This was a trying year. Upon our return as proud Seniors, we found ourselves in the midst of requirements for Operative Dentistry, Prosthetic Dentistry, Pedodontology, Roentgenology, Pathology, Crown and Bridge and Orthodontia. State Board fillings, bridges, Mock Boards all glared us in the face and caused us more than one sleepless night. Many faculty changes were announced to us, the main ones being, the election of Dr. Cameron to the chair of Oral Surgery vacated by the death of Prof. Carlton N. Russell, and the election of Prof. C. Barton Addie as the Associate Dean of the School. We unanimously elected Prof. Theodore D. Casto as our class advisor for the year, and he graciously accepted the honor. During the class meetings which followed, we soon learned that we made a happy choice. Samuel Sachs, one of our most industrious and best liked fellow members, was appointed to the office of the Editor-in-Chief of the Record Book early in the term. 114 His tireless efforts later on in the year proved to us that our Class Book will not only he a splendid one hut also economical, and for this he holds the appreciation of the class. During the Fiftieth Anniversary our class was very active in the student clinics held by various departments, and our attention to the guest clinicians showed that we were more than willing to learn. The co-operation of the Seniors in contributions and educational displays, besides their clinical work on the infirmary floor, set a high standard for other classes to follow. From a social aspect, the class enjoyed the All-Dental Dance held in their honor by the rest of the student body. The affair was given at the Mitten Hall to the tunes of Gene Kardos and his Band, and proved to be a success. It was our last dance and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The culmination of our school days came with the momentous occasion, ('.lass Day. It was a great day for all of us, as it marked the ending of our strenuous and perhaps disheartening efforts at times, in the blaze of glory. The prizes were the reward of those who, by natural endowment or extra effort, were able to show greater excellence than the average. This day remains as a moment of four short years spent together in striving to learn the fundamentals of our life’s work. It is with regret that we learned near the close of the term that Rocco Palcse, our well liked member, suffered a nervous breakdown, and left for a sanatorium. May you get well soon, for we all wish you quick recovery from the bottom of our hearts. We are now upon the threshold of life. Each one of us is filled with joy. hope, and desire for accomplishment. Our future is before us and our profession is an honored one. We can do a lot. the greatness of our efforts rests in our hands. We can make our Alma Mater think of us with pride as one of her famous alumni. The heights which we are about to scale depend upon our skill, strength and love to serve mankind. Our class history ends but our individual histories take its place. May lheyr breathe success! Gregory B. Salisbury.

MacCallum John McQuade W Tl'II the closing of our Freshman and Sophomore years as fond memories, and the advent of our Junior year, the general aspects of things changed. New professors, new subjects, new theories and the shift from the theoretical to the practical phase of dentistry was inevitable. No longer are immaculate white gowns a dream—now they are a happy realization for which we have diligent!) strived for two laborious years. High military collar, last name on our pocket, mouth mirror, explorer, and oval light, the Juniors are making good in a big way. Professor James has extended us an honor and privilege by his acceptance of our unanimous nomination to office of class advisor. We are deeply indebted to Professor James for what he has accomplished in our behalf, and our appreciation shall always be evident. I’hc “Junior Class Smoker ', sponsored by Dr. James, and the “All-Dental Dance , were events never to be forgotten. In the Junior year, we tried to attain some of the dignity necessary to professional men. With this thought in mind, we are looking forward to a completion of our undergraduate work next year, and wish the class of ‘31 the best of luck and success in their attempt to wrestle with “Dame Fortune ' next year. 118 Class of 1935 Frank C.

M.D. IVT0 longer are we, the class of 1936, the lowly down-trodden Freshmen. At last - • we are Sophomores. We have returned to add another year of study to our former knowledge. We hope one and all to meet with the greatest success and look ahead longingly to the day we will be able to take our place on the Clinic floor, there to receive the finesse necessary to the practice of Dentistry. We have been amply aided on our way by all of our teachers of the last year with the addition of several members of the faculty who met us for the first time last September. We sincerely hope that our contacted affiliation with faculty members has led to a greater understanding between our class and our teachers. Through the gracious aid of our class advisor. Doctor Prank C. Abbot, the activities have been very complete and have been confirmed with the wishes of every member of the class. The President, George W. Dean, has successfully filled the duties of his office. We have sent our members to the dance committee and to the Student Council, and we feel satisfied that they have been very successful in seeing that the wish of the class has been met with and considered. We have yet to elect those outstanding individuals who will hold the highest offices of our class for the Junior year, we wish them every possible success. To those who have served us in the past we offer our congratulations. With our eyes turned forward and our energetic spirit of youth, we hope to bring this year to a happy termination, and advance upon the higher branches of education in the field of dentistry with the self-same spirit which has prompted us in our past work. P'rom the depths of our heart we wish to thank each and every member of the faculty that has been conducive and successful in enlightening us. 120 Class of 1936 Jack Alloy Edward Arnopol Philip II.

Mack .Jerome Goldman ... Isabel Pazeian . . .Irwin Fischer William Timmins HP HE professional career of the class of 1937 is approaching the close of its school A year. It is proper, therefore, to glance in retrospection for a moment's pause and view what has gone before. Looking backward over the period of the last year, the time of entrance into this seat of learning, when enthusiasm and idealization manned us with the firm determination to master a profession. Some of us complete this year with feelings of relief, while others look forward, hopefully, to a successful future. On our first day, we were welcomed by our honorable Dean Bromell. who qualmed our fears of the unexpected to come. On the succeeding days we were greeted, in turn, by our respective teachers, and our routine was taken up. At the first class meeting in October, conducted by Dr. F. C. Abbott, Paul Lang was chosen as temporary chairman, until we had better acquainted ourselves with our fellow students. The next meeting found us selecting the officers who were to lead us for the coming year. Dr. Frank C. Abbott was chosen as our Class Advisor. The officers elected have proven themselves satisfactory to everyone in the class, we feel and they have shown, that a better selection could not have been made. Our worthy president, Paul Lang, has done all in his power for the betterment of the class. In the course of progress, everything moves forward—we feel proud of the fact that our class has had the honor of forming the Ryan Chemistry Society, which represents a two-fold purpose: The advancement of chemistry in dentistry and the establishment of a freshman society. To our learned instructors, bearing so long with us while we explored the lanes of dentistry, words fail to express our deep appreciation, and language is inadequate to express the unlimited gratitude that enthralls. Their valuable and progressing training, given us, day by day during our first year, theoretically as well as practically. is but the stepping stone—the foundation of our life's work. To the graduating class of 1931 go out the heartiest congratulations of the class of 1937 with the earnest wish that they may triumph in all their undertakings. This is merely a passing glimpse into the history of the class of 1937. The history of this notable class shall be unfolded and revealed in all glory in the spring of 1937. 122 Class of 1937 William II. Anilrod George II. Arnold Andrew W. Baker Frank G. Baldwin Rupert J.

By these symptoms its nearness is diagnosed: the accentuated activity on the college campus, the feverish anxiety of the backward student, the demand of the over-pressed teacher for a class book article, by the posing for photographs, the round of social functions and the excited activity in preparation for the biggest of all events- the final examination, and then, perhaps, graduation. By the time that this article (penned in obedience to your request) will have reached your hands, you will have been graduated, I pray. Shall I reminisce relative to our four years of happy association? This, frankly, would be my natural tendency, as I am always filled with sadness when I address my class as a unit, for the last time. Shall I attempt a comprehensive resume of the work of this department? Space docs not permit. It begun the first day you entered the lecture hall and the technical laboratory of this institution. It has been persistently directed through the four years and will. I hope, be as consistently directed by you. after you bid adieu to your Alma Mater, now that the proper foundation has been established. Shall I use this space to insist upon the application of the rubber dam where indicated? You know of its merits! Shall I dwell upon the technical procedure of the gold foil filling, or the intricacies of the gold, or porcelain inlay construction? All operative procedures have been well covered. In my remaining remarks then. I prefer to be general rather than specific, for it is my belief that 1 can thus he of the greatest help to the greatest number by so doing. This Chair insists that “Operative Dentistry” is the backbone of your chosen profession and not the narrowed down, segregated portion of dentistry confined solely to mechanics, as some would have you believe. Reflect upon the extent of the subject matter already covered in operative dentistry and try to realize that you have had time to be grounded only in its fundamentals. Your graduation is but your commencement of a broader and more scientific study of the subject, made understandable by the solid foundation upon which your teachers expect you to build your castle of experience and knowledge. Dentistry today is universally recognized as a “health service’’, and operative dentistry in its fullest sense embodies the major portion of its practice. Dentistry now is going through a transitional stage. It is being challenged by the world. I implore you to realize that the answer to this challenge depends directly upon you. This is the era of a “New Deal”. Will dentistry be sufficiently progressive to join the march for better service and a greater good to humanity? Again it all depends upon you, the graduate of today. Is a socialized dentistry to be our profession of the near future? The signs are beginning to point in that direction. Until you have had lime to study the question for yourself, follow the leadership of your colleagues who have made such a study. In the interest of a health service, dentistry begins for the child with the expectant mother. We call it “preventive dentistry” for want of a better term. Yes. it begins with the first signs of human life and ends for the individual only with his death. The dentistry of the remote future—for which the profession has already so nobly and unselfishly plowed the furrow and planted the seed, is to be primarily a preventive dentistry; but until that time when it is an accepted reality, we shall be called upon to practice a diagnostic dentistry, a corrective dentistry, a restorative dentistry, a reparative dentistry, a surgical dentistry and a replacement dentistry. What single phase of dentistry is even half so much involved as is Operative Dentistry? I asfi you! Shall I reiterate the words of advice penned to your predecessors? This article is already much too long. Let it suffice to say that what I said to the Class of 1933 I just as sincerely say to you. F. S. RUSCA. Professor of Operative Dentistry. 120 Department of Roentgenology fTHHE CLASS Of 1931 may lie interested in a few historical facts relating to the development of Roentgenology occurring in my experience. On November 8. 1895, William Konrad von Roentgen observed in his laboratory a fluorescence from a piece of cardboard on which had been placed an emulsion of platino-cyanide of barium. A vacuum tube was being activated by a high voltage which was provided by a RhumkrolT coil. At that time this induction coil was the step-up voltage. It is the principle by which all electric potentials are charged at the present time. The phenomenon of the cardboard stimulated further inquiry which led to an explanation of light damaging the photographic plates in an adjoining room, it was soon demonstrated that this invisible influence had an action corresponding to light on AgBr. Early the following year Roentgen Ray pictures of hands with rings on the lingers appeared in scientific magazines. These assisted others to understand the principle of this wonderful influence. This discovery was soon applied to locating foreign bodies such as lead bullets, when they were in the tissue of the human body. The first Roentgenograms made for a patient of mine was in 1904, for a superior third molar. These were made by Dr. Kassabian and required an exposure of 8 to 10 minutes. Whereas they are now made in less than 1 seconds. These crude tubes caused long exposures for the operator and resulted in many severe injuries. I have told in class how Doctors Kassabian and Leonard, who did work for me in the early stages of this science, both died in a most painful way, resulting from overexposure to Roentgen Rays in their pioneering days. In 1910 the application of Roentgen Rays became of some use to Dental Diagnosis of impacted teeth and pathological conditions in the region of the jaw. In 1912 I secured a large induction coil and began the study of the Roentgen Ray as it could be applied to Dentistry. I)r. F. L. R. Satterlee’s book of 200 pages was the only volume written at that time which applied to Dental Roentgenology. I often visited Dr. Satterlee in New York and had him demonstrate to me the process which he had mastered. He was an excellent physicist and developed a good X-ray machine which I used until 1924. I had given demonstrations on this machine at Temple University Dental School Alumni Day Exercises for two or three years. At the meeting in 1916, Dean Simeon H. Guilford called me into his office and asked me to give him the details for an X-ray equipment to be used for teaching at Temple University Dental School. I showed him within a few days what I considered the most satisfactory X-ray machine, and at the same time inquiring who was to teach the subject. Dean Guilford replied, “I had thought of asking you if you had time to do it.’’ 1 assured him that I had the necessary time and was immediately appointed. Developing this branch of science in our school has been a thrilling experience. For the first year or two when I was also Laboratory Instructor and Lecturer, three or four dozen films each week was all that was required. All work of this kind was accomplished on Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons. I sincerely hope that it may be the good fortune of some members of this Class to have as enjoyable a time as I have had for seventeen years, developing a new branch in our school. Please remember that all your studies will only por-tially prepare you for the many advancements the world will offer. Theodore D. Casto, D.D.S., F.A.C.D., Professor of Roentgenology. 127 Department of Oral Surgery rT' 0 the Class of 1931 goes the honor of being the first undergraduate dental class - • to receive instruction in Oral Surgery at the Pennsylvania Hospital. The Pennsylvania Hospital, organized in 1751. has always been a teaching Hospital for medical students, and it is interesting to look over the Roster of gentlemen who have sat in the amphitheatre of the Hospital to receive instruction during their student days in medical school. Many prominent physicians and surgeons of Philadelphia and throughout the United States attended lectures in the Pennsylvania Hospital as students, and to some fell the eagerly sought honor to serve as internes in the Institution. The 1931 Senior Class of Temple University School of Dentistry have, by the kind permission of the Hospital authorities, been granted the privilege of attending the Oral Surgery Clinics, where close to one hundred major oral surgical operations have been performed before the students during their school year. The operations performed have been of a wide variety, covering many phases of oral surgery, such as impacted teeth, cysts, osteomyelitis, fractures of the jaw. sinus operations, benign and malignant tumors, etc. I sincerely feel that the students who have attended the Oral Surgery Clinics will be more efficient dentists for having had such instruction. The opportunity to observe a wide variety of jaw lesions gives to the student a foundation in diagnosis of inestimable value. We hope to have a Clinic, properly equipped, in the Dental School in the near future, where instruction in the care of ambulatory or minor Oral Surgery cases can be given in a systematic manner and the student permitted to actually carry out the treatment of such cases. As my first year of teaching draws to a close, I look back on my brief association with you. as students, in the kindest spirit and thoughts for your success. Life is a road, and success is the destination for which we all should strive. I have enjoyed traveling part of life’s journey with you, and if my effort as a teacher should prove helpful to you, as young dentists entering into your chosen profession, then I shall be very happy indeed. May the future he kind to you, and success and happiness reward your efforts. Good luck! James Ritciiif. Cameron. D.D.S., Professor of Oral Surgery. Department of Minor Oral Surgery and Anesthesia f HAN E been asked to again inscribe something for the pages in your Class Book, and in so doing it becomes a pleasant task when one considers niv intimate contact with you as a class and individually, having shared some of your trials and tribulations when you were but neophytes in the Department of Minor Oral Surgery and Anesthesia. Non accepted the burden placed upon you as Spartans of old: you have likewise accepted my efforts and admonitions, in the spirit they were given, having only your welfare at heart, the end results being highly pleasing in the show ing made at the first practical examination before the Board of Examiners of the State of Pennsylvania. There is no greater compensation for a teacher, than to know that his former pupils are successful in their chosen vocation. Knowing the calibre of your class, I prophesy that numbers of your class will become shining lights in the profession of Dentistry. Dentistry of yesteryear has undergone vital changes for the better, and the future holds in store many opportunities for research and advancement, and so I say in conclusion, with your fundamental training, your natural aptitude and desire, for more knowledge, the future history of Dentistry belongs to you young men and women. Wishing you all a successful career, I am, Your friend. Alfred M. Haas. D.D.S., Professor of Minor Oral Surgery and Anesthesia. 129 Department of Pedodontology A WORD of Greek derivation meaning the science of the teeth of children: in other words, dentistry for children. But why apart from the dentistry for adults? The child is in many ways different from the adult in his normal state and in the pathological conditions which affect the body. His reaction to disease and therapeutic agents differ from those of the adult. So his teeth are also different in many ways—susceptibility to caries, response to treatment, resistance to infection, etc. Therefore, the capability of diagnosing and treating, from an operative point of view, of an adult's teeth does not necessarily mean that the same dentist who is successful in this will also be successful in treating conditions to which children’s teeth are subjected. ot only docs the technic and therapeutics differ, but the psychology of the child is different. The adult has an understanding as to the conditions and probable lesults if certain operative treatment is not done. He follows directions, opens his mouth and permits the operator to proceed until the operation is completed, even though he may at times suffer some discomfort. But the child does not realize nor understand what is best for him and has to be handled in an entirely different manner. Confidence in the operator must first be established. Certain information has to be given to him in such a way that he will understand what is about to be done and will realize that it is for his benefit that the operation is undertaken. Of course, there are many children who take things for granted and make very satisfactory patients, permitting all work to be done without any fuss or rebellion. These are ideal patients. On the other hand, some children need a little coaxing, persuasion or coercion in order that the operator accomplish his task with any degree of certainty or satisfaction. Our ideal should be to perform every operation for children, from the simplest to the most difficult, with such precision and thoroughness that it will be as permanent as possible—not with the idea that deciduous teeth need only a very temporary treatment because there will be other teeth to replace them. The condition, alignment and function of the permanent teeth are greatly dependent upon the deciduous teeth and the attention and care they receive. Sound teeth and healthy gingivae in a child’s mouth predispose to sound teeth and healthy gingivae in youth and adult life of this same child. I ask that you, the members of the graduating class of nineteen hundred and thirty-four, go forth from this department beginning to appreciate the necessity of dentistry for children and the value of a child’s teeth to him. Ready to do all you can for these little tots, so that their immediate suffering is relieved and any future suffering prevented. Black has said, “Extension for prevention,” and now I say, “Prevention by extension”—extension into the field of children’s work. Be always ready to observe, learn and increase your present knowledge in order to understand children and help them to appreciate the necessity and value of a perfect set of teeth in a healthy mouth. With every good wish for your success, B. Elizabeth Beatty. D.D.S., Associate Professor of Roentgenology and Pedodontology. 130 Department of Orthodontia and Crown and Bridge T HE Department of Crown and Bridge Prosthesis and Orthodontia extends its best wishes to your class. You have just completed your dental course and are about to embark upon your professional career. We trust you will carry some of the fundamentals we have stressed, as they are bound to be of help to you in your voyage through dental practice. As the compass guides the master of a ship, so let the principle of normal occlusion serve as your compass in practice. It is really the pillar or corner stone about which the practice of dentistry is built. Irrespective of what operation you may perform about the mouth, it is certain to be related to this fundamental thought. If you perform a simple prophylaxis, your thought is to maintain perfect health within the mouth, so that no teeth are lost which would interfere with normal occlusion. In the treatment or filling of teeth you also have the thought of maintaining the arch intact to secure good occlusion. When teeth are lost you replace the missing structures by substitutes either along the principles of Crown and Bridge or other Prosthetic restoration, keeping in mind that you want to restore the best possible functional occlusion to the individual. Therefore you see that the theme of normal occlusion is of great importance in your future work. As the practice of Orthodontia is most intimate!) associated with occlusion, we trust you will long remember sonic of the thoughts expressed in your Orthodontia lectures. We have attempted to present this subject to you in the broadest and simplest manner. As in other fields, there are several schools or groups of thought. We have not limited your vision to just one of these plans but have attempted to give you the entire picture, because no one should attempt to construct his mind that he may only think or reason in one direction. As the practice of Orthodontia encompasses such a large field, it is practically impossible to give to you during your regular school term as much as we would like. However, we trust you have had sufficient instruction to enable you to have a true appreciation for its application and to stimulate you to further study of this large field of practice. So in your Crown and Bridge instruction we have also attempted to give you a number of the various methods of restoring lost dental structures and have not limited your teaching to just a few methods. We trust you will in due time be able to choose that which is good and practical from each of the numerous methods and in that way increase your capabilities that you may offer efficient service. C. Barton Addie, D.D.S., Professor of Orthodontia and Crown and Bridge. 131 Department of Prosthetic Dentistry J i response to your request for a few words to the Class of 1934 let me say: Four years is a very short time in which to learn enough of the several studies that comprise the dental curriculum to be able to stand alone, yet this is what we expect of every class that enters a Dental School. In direct proportion to the ability to make the hands fashion or produce that which the mind conceives will success follow the student of dentistry, providing he has mastered the fundamentals and fixed his standards high. Ingenuity with an appreciation of the eternal fitness of things, and a resourcefulness born of interest must be your stock in trade in the Prosthetic field. Every contact made with those who come to us for service should be an additional education in general mouth conditions, both normal and pathological, for we, as dentists, must restore the pathological condition to a normal one before the natural organs oF mastication are lost, and to an extent produce the effect of the abnormal as well as the normal in our restorations after the natural teeth have been lost. Your finger skill, and yours only, can give form to your mental concepts, your estimate of what is indicated in the case in hand can never be made to exist by one who has never seen the patient, no matter how much tchnical skill he may have. The Class of 1934 is the first class to give tangible evidence of this sense of appreciation by responding 100 per cent, in the class of staining and reformation of porcelain teeth under the able leadership of Dr. Dorothy Waugh, and the exhibition which resulted is probably the first of its kind in any dental school in the country. In closing let me remind you of what I have said several times during my lectures to you: “Make your ideals high, and instruct your patients as to what they can have in the way of artistic and cosmetic restorations, for to be a success each denture must possess these qualities in addition to efficiency. Lay your course for the top of your profession, the bottom swarms with those who will never make the grade. Norman S. Essie, D.D.S., Professor of Prosthetic Dentistry. 132 Department of Dento-Histo Pathology and Therapeutics P ONGRATULATIONS to the Class of 1931. Along with this statement, permit me to wish you all the greatest of all wishes. Success, Health and Happiness. Since the day of our first association in the department of Histo-Pathologv, I had a feeling that the Class of 1934 would he a loyal one to teach, and my expectations have not been misjudged. You have all shown interest in the work and will. I feel, enter your profession as graduates, better equipped to understand the intricacies of Oral Pathology. Diagnosis may be difficult, and attended with much concentration, but remembering a few of the basic principles placed before you in the course, you should be able to gain the confidence of your patients, because you are following the up-to-date methods of treatment, and your Alma Mater. Temple, is as progressive as any institution of learning. 1 want to leave a message with you that should direct your every-day life and give you courage to “carry on in the face of any difficulties that may arise. My message is this: There is a saying that “men are unemployed because they are unemployable.” That may sound hard, but any big employer of labor, any man who has spent hours and hours interviewing candidates for jobs will bear me out. They never reason that, that jobs are scarce, there is always one job at least—the job that one creates for oneself. Rut that means enterprise, courage, maybe hours of work a day. Put that up to one of these “go anywhere, do anything” young men and he will light another cigarette, look at you askance and murmur, “Have a heart.” Maybe we have too many luxuries, too many amusements, too many distractions. Maybe we have forgotten that beneath the amenities of civilization lurks the prime evil struggle for sheer existence. Maybe these young men need to be jolted into the remembrance of the first things. What we need today among us all is the spirit of initiative, the enterprise that takes chances and starts something new. Your graduation is something new, with a dcided responsibility to hold. It is true that economic conditions are bad. but it is when things are at their worst that men of character rise to meet and challenge life. To you all I would say: Determine first upon an objective, know what you want, then go after it. Some of you will try to affiliate yourselves with some hospital, institution or public department in order to have an income for the building up of a personal practice. If there is no paid job in the offing, sit down and initiate something— anything. Do any work rather than no work, and, for preference, work as your own master. There are as many opportunities today, as ever there were. Rut they are iiardcr to find. However slow the beginning may be. stick to the w heel and Godspeed to you all. “Much philosophy is wanted for the correct observation of things which arc before your eyes.”—Rousseau. Frederic James.

It endeavors to perpetuate enduring friendship and to foster and promote ideals which tend to cultivate the mind and enrich the human soul. It aims to bring about a more intimate relationship between the college students and to set and maintain a high standard of scholarship, to perpetuate a spirit of brotherly love and to inculcate into the student mind the ideals that make for the betterment and development of not only the undergraduates themselves but also of the college community. The principles underlying the formation of the fraternity are just and noble. The college student, a product of fraternal life, carries with him into his future career those good characteristics which he has cultivated amidst his surroundings- a most commendable factor. A few men. headed by M. M. Rappaport and . Leiken. at the Pennsylvania College of Denial Surgery, Philadelphia, Pa., banded themselves together in the iatter part of the year 1906 to form an organization. Their purpose was to protect their interests, to study collectively and foster a genuine fraternal spirit by assisting one another in their scholastic endeavors. I bis group called itself the “Ramach Club . A room on Pine Street served the purpose of a Fraternity house, meeting room and a quiz room. in 1909 a conference with members of an organization at the University of Maryland, Baltimore, Md., which purported a desire to combine with the group carrying on such good work here. The new fraternity formed thereby was to be named “Alpha Omega , the original name of the Baltimore organization. And so in the course of events Alpha Omega grew. In Ap il. 191 1. a chapter was inaugurated at the Philadelphia Dental College, which was given the Greek letter designation “Theta. William Eisner was instrumental in organizing the chapter. In 1916 when Medieo-Chi passed out of existence, the members of Ramach were transferred to the Philadelphia Dental College, resulting in the formation of “Theta Ramach chapter as it is now known. In our moment of reflection, we observe that Alpha Omega has done wonders towards achieving its goal. From practically a handful of recruits, it has steadily grown until now. after twenty-six years, it has written on its scrolls, forty undergraduate chapters, and nineteen alumni clubs in this land, Canada, and ova Scotia, making it an international organization—a record which we can well he proud of. Its loyal sons have contributed notably to the advancement of dental and medical science. In the social world it lias enhanced its own dignity, and by its conduct, earned approbation of the public. With the installation of chapters at Northwestern and Layola and one at Chicago College of Dental Surgery, the final details of the Alpha Zcta Gamma-Alpha Omega merger was completed on October 7th, 1932. The combined fraternities to be known under the one name, Alpha Omega. At the present time, Alpha Omega can boast of being one of the oldest and largest of Dental Fraternities in the world. May its beautiful ideals and traditions ever be the guiding light in its endeavors, and may its future achievements be monuments of glory for posterity. 140 Chancellor David K.

Michigan, by six men: Lewis Thayer, Arthur Deyoe, Walter Booth. William Gary. Eldon Waterloo and Gorden McCoy. In spite of opposition by the faculty, these six men founded an organization, declaring its purpose to be: “To provide a better, more substantial foundation on which to build a successful professional life; to create a desire for a cleaner, healthier, more wholesome atmosphere in which to live, and to develop an appreciation of the wonderful qualities of friendship, hospitality, and adopting their precepts as a life effort. The founders were, however, encouraged by the synthetic support of one faculty member: Doctor Waiting, Professor of Operative Dentistry. From these small beginnings, the great i Psi Phi Fraternity of thirty chapters and over fourteen thousand members has been developed. To this day the zeal in which she was nurtured has been carried, overcoming all obstacles, and flourishing in each of her members. In 1926 our six founders attended a reunion at Detroit, the first time they had all been together since the time of their college days. They were overwhelmed by the size of their organization in convention. Since this time Brothers Gary. Waterloo and McCoy have died. Gamma Chapter was founded at the Philadelphia Dental College in 1892. Since its conception, our chapter always has been among the leaders. We possess two cups, presented by the Supreme Chapter, for perfect records during two Supreme Chapter terms. Also a cup for the highest scholastic record during one of those terms. Gamma has ever adhered to the principles upon which Xi Psi Phi was founded, and, we are sure, has accomplished great good both for her members and many others with whom she has come in contact throughout her forty-one years of existence. Under the guidance of our present Deputy Supreme President, Professor C. Barton Addie and his assistants, Dr. Edward Doyle and Dr. Harmon Henry, we are progressing rapidly. Even during this depression, our chapter is financially secure. Our personnel is above average. Our scholastic standing is high; our social activities are well and favorably known, and we are well represented in all class and school activities. We are about to offer to the profession fourteen of our brothers, who have worked hard in preparation for their life’s work; who occasionally have played hard in forgetting some of the heartaches which they have suffered in the struggle; who shall be rewarded by the successful attainment of the ideal to which they have sacrificed most of their youth. 142 Supreme Deputy Assistant Deputies President Vice-President Secretary T reasurcr Editor ..........

The spring of 1917 saw the club organized into the Alpha Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Fraternity duly incorporated by the State of .New York. In the short space of twelve years, the fraternity has grown by leaps and bounds, and now it has chapters throughout the East in various pharmaceutical, dental and medical colleges and universities of note. At present the Delta Sigma Theta Fraternity has chapters at the Brooklyn College of Pharmacy. Columbia College of Pharmacy, New Jersey College of Pharmacy, Flower Hospital Medical College, Tufts Medical College, Long Island Medical College, University of Pennsylvania College of Dentistry. Temple University College of Dentistry, New York University College of Dentistry, Columbia University College of Dentistry, St. John’s College of Pharmacy. Other Chapters are being organized in the University of Edinburgh Medical College and one in Syria. The fraternity is rapidly forging ahead and rapidly gaining new cogs in its wheels of progress. Delta Sigma Theta is not only noted for its rapid growth but also because it is so unique among other professional fraternities. It is the only fraternity that embraces the three healing arts of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy. One can readily see the advantages in the closer fraternal relationship of the members of these three professions. Among the fraternity’s honorary members are listed Deans and Presidents of Colleges, faculty members and a host of noted physicians, surgeons, dentists and chemists. Delta Sigma Theta Fraternity, unlike other professional fraternities, is nonsectarian. Not only does the fraternity rank high professionally but scholastically as well, which makes it well worthy of being classed as a Greek letter honor fraternity. The Iota Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Fraternity was founded in the early part of 1926 at the Temple University Dental College. The chapter is non-sectarian, and since it is composed solely of dental students, it is considered a Dental Chapter of the Fraternity. 144 « t t � % f I f 1 V fa- fa it J i - ' � • 11 A .

During these past forty years Psi Omega has expanded to such an extent that at present there are more than 18.000 members located over the entire world. Psi Omega has thirty-six active chapters, three of them are located outside of the United States, two chapters in Canada, and one in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Besides the active chapters there are forty-nine alumni chapters. Three of these are located in foreign countries: one in Paris. Honolulu and Toronto. The Eta Chapter house is located at 1819 Spring Garden Street. This is the site of many social functions. These functions were climaxed hv an elaborate dinner dance at the Cedarbrook Country Club. A full course dinner was served and dancing followed until 2 A. M. Along with the social activities the Psi Omega's go in for sports. For the past two years they have won the Dean I. V Broomell trophy in the basketball tournament. A number of sections of the country are represented by the active members. Among them are representatives from the farming and coal sections of Pennsylvania. the sandy State of New Jersey, the metropolis of New York, and several sections of New England. To the Class of 1934. Psi Omega contributes fifteen members, and to this class Eta Chapter extends hearty wishes for success in their undertakings upon graduation, and to the members of Temple Dental School we extend an invitation to “come over and see us anytime.” 140 OFFICERS Deputy Councilor George T.

Broomell Honorary Society AV7 HEN one considers thal the regular dental curriculum must necessarily confine itself to fundamentals and well established principles of the art and science of dentistry, it becomes apparent that those new and controversial technics and principles of the profession, an acquaintance with which is indispensable to a well rounded dental education, must he presented to the student by some extra-curricular agent. The I. . Broomell Honorary Society was organized in 1917 as such an agent. It affords to those interested students an opportunity to extend their dental education by having discussions of pertinent subjects by prominent teachers and practitioners. The society accomplishes this purpose by holding monthly meetings during the school term at which various speakers secured through the efforts of Honorary President Dean Broomell present lectures on some topic of current dental interest. Among the lectures this year was Dr. W . Ziesel. who spoke on “Gingivectomy for the Cure of Pyorrhea Alveolar is. Although all students are welcomed to the scientific meetings, the membership is restricted to a select group of Seniors and Juniors who have shown themselves to be excellent students. Thus this society has maintained its position as one of the foremost at Temple University. The I.

The Society was founded on October 9, 1922. by Dr. Michael Salerno, who was then a member of the Senior Class. The purpose of the Society is to further the interest of Prosthetic Dentistry among the student body, membership being limited to the Junior and Senior Classes. Each year speakers of prominence in the Prosthetic field are asked to speak and the student is enabled to secure practical information which is unable to be given in the school curricula. The prominence of our Honorary President, Prof. Norman S. Essig, in whose honor the Society was founded, lias enabled us to procure many speakers of national renown. Co-operating with Prof. Essig in mapping out a successful program for the year are Dr. Salerno (now a member of the Faculty) and our ambitious President. Fred Van Istendal. Dr. McW illiams, Professor of Prosthetic Dentistry at the University of Pennsylvania. spoke at one of the earlier meetings of the year. His subject was, “Partial Denture Construction and Design. Dr. M. M. I)e Van spoke on “Articulation and Conservation of Alveolar Bone Following Extractions.” Dr. De an’s talk was something which was new to the majority and his theories were very interesting. “Articulation and Set Tp, Simplified, was the topic presented by l)rs. Ber-land and Bertrand. This concluded the schedule for the year. However, in addition, Dr. Salerno gave two clinics at the Psi Omega and Alpha Omega Fraternity Houses under the auspices of the Society. The Society was also invited to attend a clinic on “Impression Technic” given under the auspices of the Dental Manufacturing Company of New York. The clinic was particularly interesting because of the moving pictures of the technic followed immediately by a practical demonstration on a patient. In closing we wish to thank Prof. Essig. Dr. Salerno, and Dr. Dorothy Waugh for their interest and co-operation. And to the Society we say farewell with best of luck in the continuance of a successful program in the years to follow. 154 OFFICERS Honorary President I'acuity Advisor President .........

St. Elmo Rusca Honorary Society of Operative Dentistry was organized during 1932-1933. The first official meeting was held January 19, 1933, at which time Professor Rusca spoke of the benefits that would he derived if the Society functioned properly, and he expressed the beliefs that this Society can he one of the best. It was Professor Rusca's wish that this Society he open to all Junior and Senior students so that both weak and strong would benefit by it. One of the main purposes of the Society was to train the members to think intelligently on their feet together with the art of public speaking. The organization began its second year of activities with rapid progress and an additional number of members. This year the Rusca Honorary Society has presented outstanding men in the Dental world and also in the Medical field. They came before the organized group and presented phases and topics of vital interest and importance in Dentistry. Debates and extemporaneous speeches on selected subjects'pertaining to Operative Dentistry were delivered by members in the Society also helping to add greater interest. Meetings which are held monthly serve to co-ordinate the students with their work, strengthen their foundation to give them something to carry away when they become members of the vast outside world of Dentistry. Continued success on the horizon of the future is assured to the graduating members of the Rusca Honorary Society whose principles stand for the student to fit him for the chosen career, and to enlighten him on lines that may cause failure unless corrected, and to steer him to success.

Dorr, a pioneer in the field of research, and the donor of the sum of S50,(XK) for the endowment of a laboratory which is now one of the finest in the country. This organization rapidly became tin- keystone of scholastic activities and extra-curricular research, and the enthusiasm of its carefully selected members proved to he an inspiration for all others. Yearly more and more rigorous requirements faced the hopeful candidates, until now only five members are admitted out of the entire Junior Class. These fortunate scholars are selected by the merit and originality of their theses, which arc unsigned and numbered, with only the Honorary President and the author knowing the candidate’s number. Thus, unbiased by ties of friendship or external pressure, the Senior members read and judge each thesis and select the winners without knowing their names. This year an innovation was instituted by President Waldman, consisting of weekly clinics in which special pathological cases were observed and discussed by individual members of the Society, thus contributing invaluable practical knowledge to the group. Under the guiding hand of Professor James, the members carry out various problems in research study, hold practical clinics, and accumulate a tremendous amount of information from the guest speakers who are the leaders of the profession. The Society was fortunate this season in hearing Dr. George M. Dorrance's lecture on “Hare Lip and Cleft Palate, Drs. James and C. Barton Addie on the subject of “Nutrition and Diet. Dr. L. Biddle Duffield on the “Radiographic Interpretation of Pathologic Third Molars, Osteomyelitis of the Jaws and Fractures. and Dr. Jacoby Rothner on “Balanced Occlusion. During the Fiftieth Anniversary, the Senior members of the Society gave a demonstration of the use of Sodium Rieinoleate in treating various oral lesions, and were ably assisted by the new members. The entire day. devoted to the Department of Clinical Pathology, Histo-Palhology and Therapeutics, was a busy one for the Dorr men. In the afternoon, clinics by Dr. I. Weinman and Dr. Edward Subin held the attention of the organization, and the day was brought to a close by attending Dr. Rothner’s interesting lecture. It is the feeling of the Society that the year was well spent, and it is the hope of the graduating members that the ones who are to succeed them carry on the traditions and ideals of the Society and contribute to the field of research. 160 OFFICERS Honorary President President Vice-President Secretary-Trees u rer Prof. Frederic James David K.

Dr. I. Norman Broo-nicll. Dean of the Temple University Dental School, presiding. The Society was called the Frederic James Society of Clinical Pathology in honor of Professor Frederic James, L.M.M.S.S.A. (Lond.), D.D.S.. Professor of Dental Uisto-Pathology and Therapeutics and Director of the Henry Isaiah Dorr Research Laboratory of Temple University Dental School. The purpose of this Society is to stimulate an interest in Clinical Pathology, to aid research and to supplement individual and lecture room study by Clinical Demonstrations and Questionnaires. This was accomplished whenever possible by practical and motion picture demonstrations in Clinical Pathology, questions and answers submitted by members of the Society and students of Dental Histo-Pathology and Clinical Pathology and Therapeutics, and practical Demonstrations in Clinical Pathology on such occasions that suitable cases are obtainable from Infirmary practice. We also secure outside speakers to present subjects of interest to a Society of this kind. In the brief period of time that the Society has been functioning we can boast of some very educational lectures by some of the best men in the profession. OFFICERS Honorary President .

Haas Honor Society was formed three years ago, the society being named for our professor of minor Oral Surgery and Anesthesia. The organization is honorary in character, the chief requirement being the presentation of a thesis on some phase of Oral Surgery and Anesthesia. Students who present theses of merit are admitted to membership upon the official sanction of the Executive Committee and the Honorary President. Meetings are held each month and at each meeting prominent men in the field of Oral Surgery give talks concerning their particular field. • Following the last meeting of the year the annual banquet is held. The society has well carried out its purpose this year, and considering the progress made since the formation of the society, everything points to success in the future. 166 OFFICERS Alfred M.

Kear. who together with Mayer Flocks, D.D.S., present alumni editor, formulated the plans in 1929-30 for a magazine. The purpose was to illustrate the high ethical practices of the profession, to introduce to the students through a series of articles the work and thoughts of the outstanding students and dental men. and to foster a closer co-ordination between the classes, fraternities and societies. How well the aspirations of I)r. Boyd R. Kear and Dr. Mayer Flocks have been realized is now past history. The realization that the Temple Dental Review is now considered one of the best school publications of its type in the country is sufficient tribute to the “brain child that these two men conceived. With the untimely demise of Boyd R. Kear. all the work was left to Mayer Flocks, who together with the aid of Louis Dranov, 31, succeeded in publishing the first edition in November, 1930, with the hearty commendations of Dean Broomell. Dr. Leon Halpern. present faculty advisor, and Dean Milton Stauffer. The appointment of Dr. L. Ashley Faught. D.D.S., F.A.C.D., as official censor, and the winning of the prize essay contest in memory of Boyd R. Kear by Dorothy Waugh. D.D.S.. closed the first successful season both editorially and financially. The second season. 1931-32. under the direction of Morris Block, 32, saw a critical time. Under a serious handicap financially. Block had a difficult time, but the. three issues that were distributed contained much scientific, class and society news of vital interest to the student body. Max Malkin, who took over the Reins in 1932-33, saw the brightest outlook financially that was possible. Due to much persistence and hard work on the part of the editor, the University Council saw it fit to subsidize the magazine and thus give a copy to every dental student and oral hygienist at no additional charge to the student. With the advent of David K. Waldman as editor for the year of 1933-31, the magazine saw a complete change in its policy. Aided by an able staff composed of Samuel Sachs, managing editor: Phillip Kanev and Gregory Salisbury, associate editors, and Isadore Jarin, business manager, much was accomplished. F.manuel Diamond ably did his work as circulation manager. Graduate scientific contributions of original unpubl'shed works were made by such leaders in the field of dentistry as L. Pierce Anthony. D.D.S., F.A.C.D., editor of the Dental Cosmos: Charles F. Bodecker. D.D.S., F.A.C.D., chairman of Dental Caries Research and formerly Professor of Materia Medica and Therapeutics at Columbia University: W. H. 0. McGehee, D.D.S.. M.D.. F.A.C.D., Professor of Diagnosis at Georgetown I niversity and author of “The Standard Textbook of Operative Dentistry. and Percy R. Howe, A.B., D.D.S., D.Sc., Director of the Forsyth Dental Infirmary and formerly Professor at the Harvard Dental School. Undergraduate scientific articles under the new plan were prefaced and approved by the professor of the department under which the article was written. The student body responded hv showing much more interest in them. lf 8 Faculty Advisor LEON A. HALPERN. D.D.S. Editorial Staff MANAGING BOARD Dxvio K. Waldman. '31. Editor Samuel I. Sachs. '31.

Unless you knew her well you did little to realize her wealth of humor and good sportsmanship. Of gentle disposition, with a flash of gaiety here and there. ’ Bett« was a willing he.per, and a good friend. She was a friend in need, and has been a loyal supporter of the class affairs. We need not wish her success, for we feel sure it will follow her wherever she goes. ELEANOR DOLORES BENOSKY “Skeets” 149 Main Street Glen Lyon, Pa.

But then, there are moments of fun— and more fun. Eleanor does her part in making the halls of Crozer ring.

She saw to it that one never interfered with the other. To he able to assist all those needing help seemed to be one of her pleasures. If an exemption roll was to be posted Thelby s name could be seen to grace this much envied list. This fact alone proves that Thelby did not dispense her knowledge unless there was a “call” for it.

She made up for all her classmates in this respect. Lillian was very sociable and friendly and was a good student scholastically. She did good work in her class by keeping it active.

Here comes Miss Dignity, and does she look professional in a uniform. It is rather hard to decide whether it is the uniform, the blue eyes, the winning smile, or her personality that pleases her patients so much.

Why aren’t they all content like me?” In Rose we have such a conglomeration of faults, virtues, and otherwise that it is quite difficult to know where to begin. However, she has proven to be clever at repartee and witticisms. All of which are worthy of hearty laughs and have brightened many a dull soap carving class. We congratulate you on your grand sense of humor. Good wishes and much happiness! 184 Class History of 1934 Small but courageous. Overflowing with enthusiasm To conquer every barrier. V I I I LK did our group of fourteen girls realize the barrier they had to conquer as they entered the Oral Hygiene Department of Temple University in September, 1933. However, one by one they appeared, and one by one they were conquered. The first few days were merely days of bewilderment, a bewilderment which diminished little by little, and finally left us as the regulating forces of the school came into full sway. We were introduced first to our friends, the mannikins. As friends, they were “true blue”, like our smocks, for they never uttered a word of complaint, but instead, seemed to enjoy our attempts to giving them a “prophy . However, the day finally came when we had to say adieu to them and we started to work on our first patients. From that time on our work grew more interesting, for every patient was something different. Of course, the horizon was darkened by some clouds. Drawings, soap carving, posters and exams appeared quite threatening, but had silver linings instead, for we were quite proud of them after they were finished. Alas! the time for Final Exams drew near, naturally spirits were rather low, when suddenly they rose again. Why? The answer was the Dinner Dance held by the class at the Anchorage, May the 1th. Everyone had a marvelous time. And so with a word of thanks from the class to Miss Bailey and her assistant, Mrs. Ege, for their careful guidance and training throughout the year, the history of the class of 1934 draws to a close. May we prove ourselves worthy of remembrance? 185 ISO Humor “Daddy, won’t you please tell me about that day at Temple Dental when they hung out the Hags and declared a national holiday? “Well, sonny, it happened this way— “It all started when Ventura gave ten points for an amalgam occlusal and Miller checked a filling after only three hours of polishing.

It was at our recent meeting that we decided to enlighten the ignorant profession. Our discoveries in one field alone does away w ith all necessity for crown and bridge work, prosthetics or restorations of any kind. Agents of the organization, established in maternity wards throughout the country, have been performing postmortems on still-born and “blue-babies. In these post-mortems, the tooth buds of the deceased children were removed and sent to our headquarters for preservation. Here they are sorted as to form and shade as predetermined from the unfortunate parents of the infants, and filed away until the necessity foi them arises. Our method is to implant the desired type of tooth bud in the socket, immediately following extractions. In the normal physiological growth that follows, a healthy tooth takes the place of that recently removed. Since these tooth buds come in complete sets, they can be used for full or partial cases. Extractions, too, are simplified. A coating of ferrous oxide is placed around the neck of the tooth to be removed. Then a powerful magnet is applied, and by its attraction to the iron film on the tooth the ailing member is drawn out. The major objection to this method is the tendency on the part of the magnet to attract the iron content of the haemoglobin of the blood, thus causing profuse hemorrhage. 'fhe stomatological world must indeed pay homage to such eminent Schnozzolo-gists as Chief Schnoz .ola SklarolT. Eagle-heak Burstein, Puzzle-puss Foxman, Big-hook Stein, Nickel-face Gublebank. Hatchet-face Sherman and Proboscis Cliasin. These nose-it-alls must with this report hid farewell to their beloved Temple. Anyone interested in furthering their dental knowledge may do so by communicating with any of the above named members of the organization. POPULARITY CONTEST Most gentle operator. . . . . . . . .

It is the baby’s right, the lover's privilege, and the hypocrite’s mask. To a young girl it means Faith, to a married woman Hope, and to an old maid Charity. 192 A Day on the Floor AN the clinical floor we were slightly lax Till our noble professor started swinging the axe And read the points to our dismay And I'm telling you from that very day The clinic buzzed with stndes in white It certainly was a wonderful sight It wasn’t their idea by hecks. They had to do it to save their necks. We worked like fools on prophy and filling And envied not partners—around Mrs. hoy milling Midst gnashing of teeth and pulling of hair And crying in unison. “How bout a chair? The suave Madame Boy with her eyes all agicam. Says. “Boys, can’t you wait—until one-fifteen? Then over to “Gibby” you go all eschew And she says. “Wait a minute. I’ve work here to do.” And she calls Doctor Beiser and they go into a huddle And you’re standing there—your mind in a muddle— And looking around you see Wyekoff and Dovle And suddenly remember, you came for gold foil. And on your way back, you stop and comment On Lord’s technique for mixing cement And suddenly realize you're in a mess, For gazing straight at you is Head Master Hess While demure Doctor Faggart looks on with a frown, At an iodine spot, on a newly cleaned gown So back to your chair you fairly do creep And before your damned patients you seem very meek As you try to decipher the questions they ask While their mouth and their face is enclosed in a mask Of thin rubber dam which has just sprung a leak. And with conditions like this, they say, be discreet. And so for a check up, you call Doctor Miller While putting away your root canal filler. His verdict is, “Trim up that gingival seat And bevel the margins and make it look neat,” And at it again you go with a bang While you chisel and scrape the whole darned shebang. Then you’re off to a start with a will and a way. When the tubular gong—tolls the end of the day. And when “Joe” swings that hammer to “GibbyV delight, 193 You might just as well fold up—vour things for the night And clear out as quick as your feet will take you. Forsooth a demerit may soon overtake you. On your way out—why to your delight, A poster says, I. Rusca Meeting Tonight , It's to he a smash hit. a panic, a riot, The speaker’s Ferraris, the topic is diet. The additional speaker is Doctor Al Grower, His subject is, ‘‘Knighthood, when it was in flower”. So back here at eight to attend the big meeting And the Honorary Pres, extends all a greeting Then the chairman named Kelly says with regret That neither of the speakers has shown up yet. Now comes a message hot over the wires That Grower’s detained with a certain Miss Myers And a similar note that beats the puppies. Ferraris is home taking care of his guppies. The meeting concluded and so as they say, That was the end of a perfect day And we wander home and seek the bed, Upon which to rest our weary head, And know that you’ll feel the following morn Like asking the question. “Why was I born?” But the gol-darned alarm goes oft' just the same, And you fall out of bed and comb out your man?. And a quick shave and eat, and a mad dash for school And onlookers pause and ask, “Who is that fool?” As you rush for the campus and fly up the stairs And arrive at the clinic to find all the chairs Are taken by others before you got there So with Tom, Dick and Harry and a Junior named Jim, You join with them saying, “Boys, you can’t win.” And so such as this starts a day on the floor With demerits and prophys and fillings galore. And Doctor Ray. Walters and his old wubbah dam. And dapper Baglivo, the tailor made man And Halpern and Carmick so cool and sedate Just standing by waiting to co-operate In aiding Ventura, the Norristown flash. Who is telling the boys, “They shall not pass.” And so ends this verse, so simple and true, To the characters included. My apologies to you. 194 Michael F. Quinn, Jk.

That explanation is true, but it is merely one of several factors upon which the selection of a yearbook service agreement for printing should be based. One phase of the interpretation of yearbook printing by Lyon and Armor means creating a book with an individual personality through injecting the purpose and feeling behind the volume into the finished layout. Excellence in yearbook printing depends not only on expert press-work, but to a large extent is attributable to the proper execution of typography and layout. The creative spirit injected in the 1934 set of Lyon and Armor produced books has destroyed the monotony which is so detrimental to the popular acceptance of most annuals.
