IT IS INTENDED TO MIRROR THE ERA OF EXPANSION WHICH HAS RECENTLY INCREASED THE PRESTIGE OF TEMPLE MEDICAL SCHOOL IN THE MEDICAL WORLD, TO PORTRAY OUR TEACHING AND TEACHERS WITH THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE PAST AND PRESENT, TO STORE MEM' DRIES OF OUR UNDERGRADUATE LIFE INTO A VOLUME WHICH IN FUTURE YEARS WILL BRING RECOLLECTION OF STUDENT DAYS AND TO FURTHER OUR PRIDE IN A GREATER TEMPLE JOHN BYERS ROXBY, M.D .... : TIH IE LI EE €E JOHN IDTIEIRS ECXEY liOHN BYERS ROXBY was born in Shenandoah, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, vJP May 18, 1871. He attended the public schools, completing the four year High School course in three years, graduating in 1888. The following year he became a member of the Senior Class of Millersville Teachers' College, where he studied a teachers’ training course. In 1889 he moved to Philadelphia and held positions in two commercial establishments while he continued his pre-medical instruction course at night. In 1892, Dr. George H. Richardson, then a member of the teaching staff of Medico-Chi, acted in the capacity of preceptor for this willing lad. The following year he entered the MedicO'Chirurgical College from which he graduated with honors in 1896. Immediately, he enrolled in the Philadelphia Polyclinic as a student during the summer months where he added the finishing touches before taking the State Board Examination, December, 1896. He was appointed in 1897, as demonstrator of Anatomy, succeeding, in 1899, the late Dr. Joseph Wallace, as Chief Demonstrator and Instructor in Anatomy in his Alma Mater, which position he held until 1902. In 1903, he was appointed Professor of Anatomy at Temple University Medical School and during the years of 1903-04 he also served as lecturer on the Anatomy of the Central Nervous System at the Woman's Medical College. In 1905 he was appointed Professor of Anatomy in the Philadelphia Dental School of Temple University, serving as head of the Departments of Anatomy in both Medical and Dental Schools. During the major portion of this time he conducted a general practice in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, except for the time between 1912-14 when he was a full-time professor. He resigned this professorship in 1914 to resume general practice. Later, during the period of the World War, he served as Official Lecturer on First Aid under the Southeastern Division of the Red Cross and was also examining physician for the Draft Board of the Swarthmore District. In the meanwhile he was lecturer on Anatomy at the Chester Hospital. During 1920 he was appointed on the Medical Staff of the Chester Hospital and in 1921 was made First Vice-President, and the following year President of the Delaware County Medical Society. In 1925 he was again made Professor of Anatomy in Temple Medical School. Dr. Roxby is a member of the Delaware County Medical Society, Pennsylvania State Medical Society, Fellow of the A. M. A., a member of the Philadelphia Medical 31ub, and the Theta Upsilon Chapter of Phi Chi Medical Fraternity. This esteemed friend of the student is an inveterate reader of books and oarticularly those which have to do with the historical phases. This in a brief way gives you the life of a man long since honored and respected by all who had the pleasure of his association and teachings.

IPOXIDT’S MESSAGE To the Senior Class: 1 salute the Class of 1930 in its publication of the Skull. It is the comprehensive story of a four year environment. It records impressions and reactions. It is the written acknowledgment of the second epoch in your career in medicine, the first being your matriculation, the third will be your establishment in practice. My message to your collated valedictory of these years of earnest work in the study of the healing art will find its best expression in the following abstract from the writings of Professor William Pepper: “Through the ages from the early dawn of human understanding, the Medicine Man has pursued his strange yet sacred calling. Possessed of knowledge which sets them apart, dealing ever with the tremendous and baffling problems of life and death, looked to by all when suffering and danger impend, worshipped as divine and hailed as deliverers when the issue is good, or derided and punished for their failures, the Doctors have always enjoyed strange experiences. . . . Through it all, the belief of the people in the healing art has remained true; through it all the aim of the Doctor has remained noble; and the larger light of knowledge of these later days in defining clearly the splendid service rendered to humanity by medicine. It is no longer merely the personal relation of doctor to patient and the personal service; there is coming now the infinitely broader relation of sympathy and confidence betwen the entire community and the whole medical profession, engaged in a common work of discovering and removing the cause of disease! Fellow students of the Senior Class your opportunities arc golden. Be optimistic and cheery. Hold fast to high standards. Maintain a fine code. In conclusion may I as your colleague suggest that you fit your lives to'this verse of Whittier. No crusade thine for cross or grave. But for the living man. Go forth to succor and to save, All that thy skilled hands can. Sincerely, Your Friend, John B. Roxby. Sixteen To the Senior Class: May I extend congratulations upon the successful completion of your course in medicine, and extend to you best wishes for a happy internship and a most successful medical career. It is not necessary to remind you that you have consecrated your lives to humanity. To thine own self be true, but always remember the patient is your first consideration. Guard jealously the traditions of your profession, and “carry on with credit and honor, that future generations will look back with pleasure and profit, at your achievements. Bear in mind that preventive medicine is greater than curative medicine, and that you should occupy a very important place in the future scheme of personal and public health, which are dependent upon the watchful care, the diagnosis and faithful services of the family physician. No persons and no agencies can take the place of the family physician who is the keystone of the structure of public health. Faithfully yours, Frank C. Hammond. To My Senior Class: You are now a member of a profession honored above all others. The practice of medicine offers glorious opportunities for abundant service to your fellow men. Dedicate your lives to the cause of humanity, endeavoring always to relieve and befriend the sick and suffering. Remember the opportunities offered the physician to contribute something to the sum total of human knowledge. Many problems of absorbing interest and of utmost benefit to mankind are yet awaiting solution. It is my earnest hope that the members of the Class of 1930 may extend the border line of medical knowledge by discovering some agent or method that will cure a baffling disease, further relieve suffering, or result in the prolongation of human life. William N. Parkinson, Dean. Seventeen Fellow Students: Having been one of those delegated to serve as guide during your four years” climb, I rejoice with you in witnessing your attainment of that which, at one time, must have seemed a dizzy and precipitous height. Whether pursuit or possession furnishes the greater stimulation, must always remain an individual matter. As far as the study of medicine is concerned, however, possession of the mere right to practice the art, fails to satisfy sooner or later. Those among you who may rest content with the accomplishment thus far won, will not continue to extract the joy from your work, comparable with that experienced during your climb. Your goal has been reached to be sure, but he alone is able to extract perennial joy, who hitches his wagon tc a star. Unattainable, perhaps, yet the very excitement of the chase keeps one well in the forefront. May this then be to you, only the beginning of a pursuit which may mean increasing joy to you, while you are rendering an immediate service to your fellow men. The real research man is as much a product of chance as is the painter, poet or musician. He is born, not made. But the stimulus of pursuit is open to every' man, and in the very struggle comes the making of character and the self'development which results in a higher product, and potentially, a greater capacity for effective service. Incidentally, a hobby is a good thing to cultivate, but insist on riding it. The reverse may prove more troublesome than the hives. William Egbert Robf.rtson, M.D. To the Graduating Class of 1930: This momentous year to you will also be remembered as the year that Temple University grew wings. The year the Medical School burst from the cocoon of relative obscurity and flashed into a larger, higher place in the medical world. This is the year of the great new medical building, of new and very' progressive departments, of the application of newer ideas in pedagogy, of the beginning of a broader attempt to solve medical problems. That the fine success of each one of you may match the flight of your Alma Mater to the heights for which she seems destined is the wish of W. Wayne Babcock. To the Class of ’30: For my message to the members of the Senior Class, I should like to call their attention to the following quotation from a magazine: Bite off more than you can chew and chew it: Lay out more than you can do and do it; Hitch you wagon to a star; Sit tight and there you are.”” Sincerely, Eighteen Chevalier Jackson. BUILDING PROGRESS OF NEW MEDICAL SCHOOL TIH IE NEW ME ID II CAE SCHOOL r HE NEW MEDICAL SCHOOL building to be opened in September, 1930, in time for II occupancy during the 1930-31 session, is located on the northwest corner of Broad and Ontario Sts., directly opposite the Temple University Hospital, which is the teaching Hospital of the University.

T tventyHwo — aVSSCCII aVTIE ID IIN ST II TUT II € NS TEMPLE D Nil VIE PTII XT HOSPITAL |tf LD FAITHFUL” is losing her appearances by the onslaught of the modern expansion, but nevertheless she is trying hard to equalize the loss of the medical classrooms by the addition of another surgical ward. Temple University Hos pital has always been an outstanding sentinel on North Broad Street, where she extends her branches out to the surrounding sections and beckons them if they need help. It has been the abode of the Junior and Senior classes since the inception of the medical school, but now tradition breaks, and we have a similar sentinel standing guard on the opposite side of the street which will be the future home of all of the students. The Temple University Hospital has, with its enormous growth and service, found it necessary to expand, thus, we find the new surgical ward being built on the north wing of the old main structure. This increase of forty beds will bring the bed capacity to three hundred and seventy. This will give ample facilities for teaching bedside material in the future. The growth of Temple University Hospital has ad' vanced hand in hand with the additions to the faculty, new men bringing new ideas to an institution already great and striving to be greater. T wenty'five GAP IP EY§© N -G IP PAY IP IEAIPY PCSPIYaVP IT WAS back in the month of April and the year of 1923, that the Greatheart Hospital was established at 1810-12 Spring Garden Street as a Maternity Hospital for the students of Temple Medical School. Since that time, the name has been changed to Garretson-Greatheart and many innovations accorded the institution which makes it today one of the most modern Maternity Hospitals in the East. Then, too, the external appearances have been beautified by the addition of the “sunken gardens and the gateway connecting the hospital and the adjoining administration building at the Spring Garden Street entrance. The course of Obstetrics includes for each student two weeks of practical training at the Maternity Hospital, during which time the student lives at the institution. A student is assigned to duty as “student intern every Monday morning. When this “junior intern” has served one week, he becomes “senior intern” for one week, each student serving two weeks at a time. Thus, there are two “student interns always on duty. This gives each and every student the most concise and best practical teaching possible, because of the obstetrical experience afforded him in the hospital and in the home under the capable supervision of members of the Obstetrical faculty. T wcnty'Six Time Philadelphia GENERAL H CAPITAL |J HE Greatest of all Hospitals of its kind where we as Juniors and Seniors had the II privilege to learn an abundance of material wealth relative to the Aesculapian Art has been situated at its present location since 1834—the old buildings of which few remain were built between 1830 and 1834. The Philadelphia Almshouse was first located at Third and Pine Streets and was commonly spoken of as “The Green Meadows. According to Agnew, “Green Meadows' was the oldest hospital in the country, having been founded in 1731. In 1767 the institution was moved to Tenth and Pine Streets and was called the “Bettering House. The Legislature in March, 1828, authorized the purchase of a site and the erection of buildings suitable for a hospital, an almshouse, children's house, and other departments. The site was located in Blockley township, and from the township the hospital has derived a name, which, while not official, has nevertheless clung to it persistently. There arc some who thnk this name should be abolished entirely, but most of those who have served as Internes and as members of the staff still prefer that old name. Dr. Gerhard, whose careful investigation established the distinction between typhus and typhoid fever, suggested to the board of guardians that the name “Philadelphia Hospital be adopted. The Philadelphia Hospital for the Insane” and the hospital proper was known as “The Philadelphia General Hospital. T iventyseven TIHIE JEWISH IHCSIPIITAIL “If HE Jewish Hospital first appeared as a small building situated at Westminster II Avenue, Haverford Road and Fisher Avenue—now 56th Street, in West Phila-delphia, in the latter part of September 1865. The capacity of this place was soon outgrown, so a tract of land consisting of 23 acres was acquired at York and Tabor Roads in North Philadelphia—the present site. The first of a series of buildings was dedicated during the year of 1873. The following inscription, found over the Men's Surgical Ward, states the purpose for the erection of the great institution. It reads as follows:— v Thi$ Hospital was erected by the voluntary contributions of the Israelites of Philadelphia and is dedicated to the relief of the sick and wounded without regard to creed, color, or nationality under the management of a Board of members of the Jewish Hospital Association. And so it is—those that seek relief from suffering are admitted without regard to creed, color, or nationality under the management of a Board of Members. The Hospital has a bed capacity of 426 beds with a resident staff of 12 and a Chief Resident. It has 115 student nurses, 35 supervisors, one Chief Nurse and an Assistant, and an Educational Director and an Assistant. Its doors were thrown open to the Medical Students of Temple University during the year of 1928 through the kindness of the Board of Managers. Six hours a week are spent in Ward Walks under the supervision and guidance of Dr. Joseph C. Doane, formerly Superintendent of the Philadelphia General Hospital but now Medical Director of the Jewish Hospital. We are deeply indebted to the authorities who have granted us the privilege of its wealth of clinical material. Twenty'tight MUNICIPAL HCSIPIITaVL PHILADELPHIA HOSPITAL FOR CONTAGIOUS DISEASES. ]■“HIS institution, which has done so much for the preservation of the lives of our II younger generations, so as to also afford them an opportunity of reaching the point where they might be of service to community, city and incidentally nation began as the “Pest House at 9th and Spruce in 1726 and then disappearing only to reappear again in time of need, at some place more remote from the daily haunts of Philadelphians. The hospital in 1865, found a home at 22nd and Lehigh, crude to be sure, but serving its purpose until 1909. This was the year of completion of the present group of thirty' one separate buildings built at a cost of about two million dollars and embodying the last word in hospital construction. The year previous our friend Dr. Samuel S. Woody took up his duties as Medical Director and Superintendent which he has discharged with so much credit to the hospital and himself ever since. The distant situation was chosen because, as Dr. Woody says, “with everyone holding the misconception that in' fectious diseases were disseminated through the air it was that no more isolated spot could be found than this which was, and is, bounded by farm land, a brick yard, and two cemeteries, now we know that the institution could stand at Broad and Chestnut Streets with perfect safety to the community. Equipped to take care of 1150 cases in case of an epidemic and regularly treating 5000 patients a year “Municipal is the largest hospital for contagious diseases in the Western Hemisphere and probably has more acute cases than any other such hospital in the world. Since 1909, 85,000 patients have been cared for under her roofs most of whom have been suffering from “scarlet and “diphtheria. Every case must be brought in the hospital ambulances, a requirement of the law. T wenty'nine TIME EAGLEVIILLE SANATORIUM “11“ HE Eagleville Sanatorium comprising of 76 acres, and consisting of a modern II hospital, a convalescent building, a children's pavilion, ten cottages for recuperating patients, a nurses' training school as well as nurses' home, in conjunction with an ad-ministration building, dining halls, power plants, etc., was founded in 1909 by Dr. A. J. Cohen—Clinical Professor of Medicine at Temple University Medical School—and his staff. In 1919 it was found necessary to acquire a building in Philadelphia where patients were to be examined, studied, classified and guided until they were to be admitted into the Sanatorium. This building is the Eagleville Dispensary and is now located in its new headquarters at Broad and Fitzwater Streets. The Sanatorium today is one of the most modern and finest equipped in the couiv try for the treatment of diseases of the chest. Everything is handled there, from the convalescing tuberculous patient to the one developing an acute surgical complication necessitating a major operation. It is probably best known for its work in the surgical treatment of tuberculosis. It was among the first in this country to test the efficacy of artificial pneumothorax and today this treatment is accepted the world over. In ad-dition, when indicated, chest surgery is employed and the results from these treatments have proven their soundness. During the junior year Dr. Cohen gives a course of lectures on Diseases of the Chest and during the senior year the students are given the opportunity, in sections at the Sanatorium, to see for themselves the management and the Sanatorium treatment of tuberculosis. Thirty Yin IE SRIN AND cancer hospital cr dhiilaideiijpi-iia ”irHE Skin and Cancer Hospital of Philadelphia, the seventh institution of its kind « in the United States, is located at 806 Pine Street. It opened its doors to the public on December 22, 1928, with Dr. Albert Strickler as Medical Director. In the first year of its existence a total of 13,027 visits were made by 1,047 patients, an average of forty-nine visits per day. During the first half of its second year the daily average had increased to sixty-three. Clinics are conducted each afternoon daily and also on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings and Tuesday evenings. Co-operating with the dermatologic clinics in the study and treatment of cutaneous conditions and located in the same building are the following special clinics, each conducted by a leading specialist: X-Ray, Medical, Gastro-Intestinal, Allergic, Pediatric, Ear, Nose and Throat, Dental, Rectal, Metabolic, Nervous, Gynecologic, Genito-Urinary and Tumor. A complete and modern X-Ray and Radium equipment have recently been installed for the treatment of all forms of cancer. Research work in animal experimentation is already being carried on. It is expected that the completion of the laboratories of physiology, pathology and biochemistry will take place during this year. With the co-ordination of its various departments and the co-operation of its staff under the able leadership of Dr. Strickler, it is hoped and expected that scientific contributions of a high order will come forth from this institution. We are happy to have it allied with the Temple University School of Medicine. Thirty'One sir,. CHRISTOPHER'S hcsrital HIS hospital with a capacity of seventy-five beds was added to the teaching !■ facilities of Temple Medical School, last year. The hospital is non-sectarian and was started in 1875 for the treatment of children under 14 years of age without any regards to race or religion. There are no private rooms and a nominal sum is charged for board, according to the ability of parents able to pay. The hospital is the second oldest in United States; the oldest being the Children's Hospital which is 79 years old. It has a full out-patient department, social service, xVray and laboratory. It also has a Training School for nurses. The hospital has a small ward devoted to Heart Disease and an Electrocardiographic Department. It averages one thousand out-patients a week and has next to the largest out-patient Children's Heart Department in the United States. At the above institution, the students under the capable tutelage of Dr. George W. Deitz receive a thorough course on Heart Disease in children. He presents patients with many diverse manifestations and the student is well grounded in the detection and treatment of cardiac abnormalities. Thirty'two IE IP II SC € IP aV IL IP €S IP II TaV IL JPEVERAL people were granted a Charter July 18, 1851, to build the Protestant Episcopal Hospital upon a plot of ground running along Lehigh Avenue from Front Street eastward about one thousand feet and about five hundred feet in width. Starting modestly the hospital accommodated six patients during the year of 1852 and with rapid growth it served 2951 patients in the year of 1904, while the outdoor assistance through the dispensary handled 23,337 patients. Since this time, the hospital has enjoyed unusual growth until today, with a bed-capacity of 450, it affords ample teaching material for the students. The sophomore students of Temple Medical School under the supervision of Dr. Kay and Dr. Ashhurst are given bedside teaching at the above institution, and Temple is fortunate in having an associated teaching hospital with such a wealth of material. Tkirty'threc THE CNCIE € VIE IR (A Review) We wandered into this city, Just four long years ago; It might have been a pity, But how were we to know? We came with a set purpose To study the medical line, If—the professor's spared us, To pass along with time. We were just fresh from college, With all its glamour and glit; But Fanz's copious knowledge Showed us we needed the grit. From Roxby, it was muscle insertion, Along with the course of the nerves; And we knew their could be no desertion, So we studied the bodily curves. We learned our chemistry from Saylor, And learned it thoroughly, too, Here's a man who wanted no failures, And the class to their work, true blue. We can't forget Bacteriology, The work was hard, 'tis true. We will afford no apology For the continuous study 'til two. Physiology of the frogs was interesting, Hickey was more so, I think, With his odd way of reminiscing. As he walked from table to sink. Dr. Hammond, the friend of the student. Will always be close to our heart; Because with his language so fluent, He could tear any female apart. Then Babcock with ways of precision, Made an impression which will always remain, With his remarkable cleverness at op eration, And his eagerness to show students to fame. Why, we couldn’t forget Dr. Robertson, A man as learned as the day, Who always startled his audience And put historians into dismay. The kiddies on the roof garden Had the surveillance of Dr. Mills, Whose kindly smile was his pardon To patients not paying their bills. Who is that short immaculate man Conscientiously teaching the boys, eye ? Why, that's Dr. Peters. The one Who ran the praise of our class to the sky. Then our nose and throat course Which congenial Dr. Ridpath did teach; And we’ll never have to feel remorse For he did thoroughly and impressingly preach. A wise addition to our staff Was Matthew S. Ersner, by name, Who always has a pleasing laugh As he aptly taught the Otology game.

M.D., Philadelphia “1|”HE medical student, as well as the practitioner, may find in the city of Philadelphia much II of hallowed memory to inspire devotion to his chosen profession. Here trained physicians came with the first colonists. Here the first clinical lectures in America were delivered, the first medical college founded, the first hospital established. From this city a succession of practitioners and teachers have moulded the medical practice of the country. Here violent epidemics, and the wounds and diseases of war have challenged the best of medical skill. Here, from the time when the first medical publication came from the press of Benjamin Franklin, physicians have contributed more to medical literature than those of any other American city. The need for medical aid was early felt by the Colonists who settled along the Delaware River. To the Swedish settlement, New Amstel (now New Castle, Delaware), there was brought in 1638, a barber of Altendolft, one Jan Peterson, who served as surgeon at a salary of ten guilders a month. Later John Goodson came from London to accept the appointment of Chirurgeon to the Society of Free Traders, and probaly was the first practicing physician in the region of Philadelphia. With William Penn there came in 1682 three well educated physicians, Thomas Lloyd, Thomas Wynne, and Griffith Owen, whose training was soon to be put to a test. The ship Welcome was not long out of Deal. England, before smallpox broke out on board, and before the shore of the Delaware was reached, thirty of the hundred voyagers had been buried at sea. Especially active in the treatment of the sick was the Welshman, Dr. Owen, and it was he who made the first recorded amputation in the Colonies. During the operation great excitement was occasioned by the ignition of a basin of alcohol. John Kearsley, a talented young London physician, arrived in Philadelphia in 1711. and in 1717, the year that Griffith Owen died, began to serve as preceptor and instructor to young men desirous of studying medicine. Not only did Kearsley teach medicine and have an extensive medical practice, but he served in the Assembly and was an architect for Christ Church, and a competing architect for the State House (Independence Hall). A pupil of Dr. Kearsley’s, and a grandson of Dr. Wynne, was Thomas Cadwaladcr, born in 1708. After studying under the noted surgeon, Cheselden. in London, Cadwalader returned to Philadelphia in 1730, and gave, at the age of twenty-three, the first dissections and anatomical demonstrations made in Pennsylvania. He was the author of one of the first medical publications in America, a pamphlet entitled, Dry Gripes, which was published by Benjamin Franklin in 1745, and related of lead poisoning caused by the drinking of Jamaica rum which had been distilled through leaden vessels. Even more important was the work of Thomas Bond who was born in Maryland in 1712, and, after studying medicine in Paris, came to Philadelphia to practice. In 1756 he performed the first recorded lithotomy in America. It was he who, in 1751, persuaded Benjamin Franklin to establish the Pennsylvania Hospital while, in 1763, he founded one of the earliest medical libraries, and in 1765, a medical society. In 1766, with thirty students attending, he gave the first clinical lecture ever given in America. Two years following he became the professor of clinical medicine in the University of Pennsylvania. He died in 1784. His brother. Phineas Bond, 1718-1783, was also a noted practitioner in Philadelphia. John Redmond. 1782-1806, not only had a wide reputation as a practitioner of medicine, but was a founder and the first president of the College of Physicians in Philadelphia. John Morgan, called the Founder of American Medicine. was born in Philadelphia in 1735. He studied with Dr. Redmond for several years, was one year apothecary to the Pennsylvania Hospital, and for four years military surgeon. The next five years he spent abroad; in London with John and William Hunter, and in Scotland with Cullen and the Monroes. Graduating at Edinburgh, he spent the following winter in France. Italy and Switzerland. In 1765. after five years of preparation abroad, he returned to Philadelphia and instituted the first School of Medicine in America. Anticipating John Hunter, he was the first to conceive that pus was a secretion from the vessels in inflammation. He was the first Director General of the Medical Department of the Revolutionary Army, and died in 1789, being buried in ground attached to St. Peter's Church, unmarked. An important contemporary was William Shippen, Jr., who was born in Philadelphia in 1736, and also studied with Hunter in London, and in Edinburgh and Paris, returning to give the first course of Anatomy in America, the introductory lecture being given at the State House (Independence Hall) in 1762. Soon after he gave the first course in midwifery, ar.d became, September 17, 1765, the first Professor of Anatomy and Surgery in the College of Philadelphia, later called the University of Pennsylvania. Forty-one In 1777 he was appointed by Congress, Director General to the Medical Department of the Army to succeed Dr. Morgan. He died in Germantown, July 11, 1808. John Bartram, 1699-1777, called by Linneaus “the greatest practical botanist the world has seen.” established the first botanical gardens in America. The Bartram gardens are continued as a City Park at 57th Street below Woodland Avenue, and the house erected by his own hands still stands. Medical Education: This may be briefly summarized. The first dissections and anatomical demonstrations ever given in America were held by Dr. Cadwalader between 1730 and 1740 in the James Locust Building, on Second Street above Walnut. A course on Anatomy and Physiology was given by Abraham Chovet in 1744 in Videll’s Alley off Second Street. The first School of Anatomy was established by William Shippen, Jr., in 1762. The first American Medical College, now the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania, was started in 1765 by John Morgan, who received the first medical Professorship, in what was then termed the College of Philadelphia. In 1740 the school occupied buildings at Fourth and Arch Streets, and later used the mansion on the west side of Ninth Street below Market which had been erected to house the President of the United States. In 1829 this building was torn down to make room for the College and Medical School buildings of the University of Pennsylvania. It was not until 1874 that the University was moved to its present location on the west side of the Schuylkill. The first graduate in Medicine, 1768. was John Archer. The first College of Pharmacy in the world was established in Philadelphia in 1821. Jefferson Medical College, through the efforts of Dr. George McClellan, was started in 1824. At first it was the Medical Department of Jefferson College of Canonsburg, Washington County (founded in 1802), and occupied the building of the old Tivoli theatre which stood at 518 Locust Street. In 1828 the College moved to its present location on Tenth Street between Moravian and Walnut. The first Women's Medical College was established in Philadelphia in 1850, and granted the first Medical degree ever given to a woman (Lucretia Blankenburg's mother), in 1852. In 1840, Dr. McClellan, having withdrawn from Jefferson, inaugurated the Pennsylvania Medical College as a department of the College of Gettysburg. Six years later the short lived Franklin Medical College was founded, and the following year the Philadelphia College of Medicine which, in 1859, fused with the Pennsylvania Medical College. The combination, however, did not survive the Civil War. The Hahnemann Medical College was established in Philadelphia in 1848, and is now the oldest college devoted to homeopathy in the world. The Medico Chirugica! College, founded by Dr. George Smith Oliver, was chartered as a medical society in 1867, and under an amended charter, began undergraduate teaching in 1881. It is now united with the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania. Temple University was founded by Dr. Russell H. Conwell in 1884. A medical department was added in 1901, and with its new buildings, now forms an actively growing medical center in North Philadelphia. Medical Societies: The Philadelphia Medical Society which was the first medical society in America, was founded February 4, 1765. In 1768 this society united with what afterwards became the American Philosophical Society, an organization in which many well known physicians have held office. The noted neurologist. Dr. Francis Dercum, is now president. The College of Physicians in Philadelphia was organized in 1786 and held its first meeting January 2, 1787. It was incorporated in 1789, and is the oldest society of its sort in this country. The Philadelphia Academy of Medicine was instituted in 1797. The State Medical Society of Pennsylvania was organized in 1848. Hospitals: The Medical Department of the Philadelphia Almshouse or Bettering House was established in 1731, the first building being erected at Third and Spruce Streets in 1732. It was used for clinical instruction as early as 1770. The first American Hospital, The Pennsylvania Hospital, located at Eighth and Spruce Streets, was organized, as already has been mentioned, by Benjamin Franklin in 1755. Here many of the foreign soldiers were treated during the British occupation of Philadelphia. During the one hundred and seventy-five years of its existence many eminent physicians have served on the staff of this hospital. The Wills Eye Hospital, Eighteenth and Race Streets, was the first hospital to be devoted to the diseases of the eye. The first hospital for the insane, a branch of the Pennsylvania Hospital, was comolcted in 1756. The Philadelphia Dispensary, the oldest in the United States, was opened in 1786. Medical Publications; The first American Medical pamphlet was published by John Cadwalader in 1745. The first American Treatise on Medicine by Dr. Benjamin Rush in 1780. The first American Dispensary, that of Wood and Bache, was published in Philadelphia in 1833. The oldest Medical Journal, the American Journal of Medical Sciences, was started in Philadelphia in 1820. Forty'two Drug Products: The following drugs or chemicals were first produced commercially in Philadelphia: Ether, in 1823: Quinine, in 1832; Strychnin, in 1834; Sulphuric Acid, 1793; Hydrochloric Acid. 1834; and Nitric Acid. 1834. The history of medical practice in Philadelphia is closely intertwined with that of the Republic. Philadelphia physicians served in the first Assembly, signed the Declaration of Independence, and were in charge of the army medical service during the Revolution. The impress of these worthies of early Colonial and Revolutionary days remains upon the city. At Independence Hall we think of the talented Dr. Kearsley who was the competing architect of Dr. Shippen and the first lecture on anatomy which he gave here; of the time when the historic building served as a hospital, with pitifully ragged and starved Continental soldiers stretched sick and dying upon the floors. We walk to Second Street and admire the fine Colonial lines of old Christ Church. Dr. Kearsley was a good architect as well as a good doctor. Washington, in Pew 58, and Robert Morris, Benjamin Franklin, Francis Hopkinson. Betsy Ross, and others who worshipped here must have thought so, as well as Dr. Benjamin Rush, the American Sydenham, and Dr. Abraham Chovet, Anatomist, who sleep in the adjoining church yard. Two squares west at Fourth and Arch Streets we stand at the unpre' tentious flat stone marking the grave of the forceful and versatile Benjamin Franklin, and recall his intense interest in medical education, in hospital care, in prophylaxis, in therapy. No greater friend of medical progress ever lived. At the close of the War of the Revolution the city contained about 40,000 people living between the Delaware River and Sixth Street, and between Vine and Pine Streets. These were ministered to by about fifty physicians, a number of whom were eminent writers and teachers. Nearly two miles to the northeast was Bush Hill. Bush Hill was situated on a tract of 153 acres, a part of William Penn's Springcttsbury Manor, and was granted to Andrew Hamilton in return for services to the proprietors. On this ground Hamilton erected, about 1740, a suburban mansion which, at his death, passed to his son James who became Lieutenant-Governor of the Colony. The site of this house, now Eighteenth and Buttonwood Streets, is about the location of the old buildings of the medical department, and the Departments of Dentistry and Pharmacy of Temple University. In 1790, with the inauguration of Washington as first President of the United States, Bush Hill was selected by Vice-President John Adams as his residence, and there Mrs. Adams entertained and was amused by the flock of sheep which preempted the lawn. In 1793, when the great epidemic of yellow fever carried off one-tenth of the inhabitants of Philadelphia, Bush Hill was turned into a pest hospital, and here, when others fled the stricken city, the misunderstood Stephen Girard directed and personally ministered to the sick and proved that he was a great humanitarian as well as a successful ‘Merchant and Mariner. During this epidemic, Washington Square, now flanked by great medical publishing houses, was the Potters’ Field, and here many of the five thousand who died were hastily buried, mingling dust to dust with some of the two thousand Continental soldiers buried here during the dark days of the Revolution. Therapeutics was in dispute, but drastic militant practice prevailed. The sign and white basin of the professional blood letter were to be seen in many windows. Ten and Ten” (ten grains of jalap with ten grains of calomel) was a popular cathartic. Benjamin Rush fumed and stormed because many of the profession did not. as he thought, sufficiently bleed and purge the victims of yellow fever. Of the later physicians every medical student has heard something. Who has not felt the influence of Joseph Leidy, comparative anatomist; Horatio C. Wood, father of eperimental therapeutics; T. D. Mutter, surgeon, and founder of the Museum; Samuel Jackson and George B. Wood, internists; William Edmonds Horner. Casper Wister, anatomists; Samuel George Morton, craniologist and paleontologist; John Redmond Coxe, father of medical journalism; Nathaniel Chapman, medical editor; George McClellan, surgeon, and founder of Jefferson Medical College; Hugh L. Hodge and Charles D. Meigs, obstetricians; Franklin Bachc, chemist and pharmacologist; Theodore Wormley, toxicologist; Robley Dunglison, medical lexicographer; John Kearsley Mitchell and his son, S. Weir Mitchell, neurologist and investigators; R. J. Levis, surgeon; Louis A. Duhring, dermatologist: William Pepper, internist and organizer; Roberts Bartholomew, therapeutist; William Goodcll. gynecologist; Alfred Stille. clinician; J. Solis-Cohen, laryngologist; J. M. DaCosta, diagnostician; and Joseph Price, pioneer abdominal surgeon. At the southeast corner of Eleventh and Walnut Streets lived and practiced that surgeon of world-wide reputation, Samuel D. Gross, Across the street, on the southwest corner lived his colleague, Joseph Pancoast, esteemed as the most dextrous surgeon of his day. Within the block was the home of Gross's brilliant son. Dr. Samuel W. Gross, also a professor in the Jefferson College. Sixteen hundred and one Walnut, now the Medical Arts Building, marks the former office of D. Hayes Agnew, for many years Professor of Surgery in the University of Pennslyvania. Forty-three and leading consultant in the case of President Garfield. To the west, at Nineteenth and Walnut, there was, until a few years ago, the Physick Mansion used by descendants of Dr. Physick, Professor in the University of Pcnnsylvnia, and called the founder of American surgery. At what is now FortyTourth and Osage Avenue, West Philadelphia, stood during the Civil War, Sattcrlcc, the largest of the military hospitals, and noteworthy for the investigations of Mitchell, Morehouse and Keen into injuries of peripheral nerves and other matters. William Osier, who succeeded Alfred Stillc as Professor in the University of Pennsylvania, had his office and apartment on Fifteenth Street near Chestnut. He often in later years referred to his rich clinical and pathological experience at Blockley (The Philadelphia Hospital), and many stories are still told of the humorous pranks he played upon his colleagues. These notes as to the Medical Philadelphia of former generations, imperfect and fragmentary though they may be, are jotted down with the feeling that the traditions and precepts that endlessly flow from the past cannot but have much to do in continuing Philadelphia as an outstanding Medical center today. Forty'foUr DISSECTING DCCM DEFLECTIONS AuS OTHER Earth's step-children do not return to her bosom when they die; they m are scrtt “to bc made an anatomy,” as folks used to say in the days of Vesalius and Fallopius. Not for them is the restful cemetery, with flowers nestling against epitaphs, guarding unforgotten dust. Anxious eyes did not watch them while they lived, and soft feet and falling tears did not follow them when they ceased to live. Unknown in the hospital, unclaimed in the morgue, nameless and naked they come to the dissecting tables: A brawny-breasted man; the ship tatooed upon his chest shows him to have been a sailor; the figure of a girl is India-inked upon his thigh; how his paunches shook at the obscene jests he uttered when the work was being done; we do not know what strange seas the fellow sailed; we only know he has reached at last an inglorious port. A woman with a marriage-ring still upon her finger, and her hair carefully braided; her teeth show evidence of a dentist's care. Who is she, and what does she here? And where is he who once vowed to protect her? A young girl, but with swollen inguinal glands; on street-corners and in music-halls she smiled upon an army of bridegrooms that passed in the night. Pneumonia ended her career, and there was not one to press a bouquet in the faded hand, or give burial to the body he had known. A stout man, a thin man, a bald-headed man, a red-headed man, a negro with a face distorted with pain, an Italian with a huge moustache of which he must have been very proud, an Oriental with a strangulated hernia, a carcass puffed with alcohol, a tuberculous cadaver; Life’s unnecessary creatures, how they sprawl on the dissecting-slabs! Was it for this that they were born and survived the perils of infancy, and were nursed through scarlatina and measles? If time could turn backward, we would see each one of them cuddling against a mother’s breast, their first coo received with paroxysms of delight. Offsprings of poverty, but who dare put a limit to the secret hopes that welled out of the mother's heart? If we could know their names we would find that some of them had been christened Alexander, Julius, Napoleon. Ho, what an Alexander—he sighed to conquer a loaf of bread; and this Julius was stabbed by a fellow-drunkard in a bar-room; and such a Napoleon—he was emperor of nothing except an old corn-cob pipe, and he met his Waterloo in a back alley. So they tore the hopes to tatters, and the delicate fabric of a mother’s dream they pierced with the holes and rents of failure. Perhaps we speak in too high a strain. Perhaps many of these victims of life were conceived without desire, and brought forth in despair. During a winter the young Bichat explored hundreds of bodies; within a twelfth-month Pirogoff post-mortemed a thousand peasants; and throughout his career, the great Rokitansky, although he was married to a charming woman, found time to perform autopsies upon 50,000 of his unclaimed brothers and sisters. These men were scientists, and were interested only in the fatty livers, the enlarged spleens, the necrosed kidneys—but what of the ruined lives, and all the ambitions that penury mocked and misfortune smote and shattered? Did we call them Life's superflous children? An unkind epithet, for how could the learned anatomists exist without them? The sons of Vesalius should erect a monument to these people, for their discoveries are made upon the bodies of the friendless and the penniless—who had no home when alive, and are denied a grave when dead.

Scventy'eight DEPARTMENT WRITE - It IPS HH VC HACCiLCCy SECOND YEAR || ECTURES- Professor Livingston. Two lectures a week are given during the II— second half. CONFERENCES—Prof. Livingston, Dr. Scheehle and Mr. Mantz. One each week throughout the year. Special conferences as announced. LABORATORY COURSE IN PHARMACOLOGY- Prof. Livingston and Dr. Scheehle. One three hour period a week during the second half of the year. LABORATORY COURSE IN MATERIA MEDICA AND PHARMACY INCLUDING PRESCRIPTION WRITING—Mr. Mantz and Dr. Cornfield. One hour a week throughout the year. In the lectures, drugs are considered in groups as related to each other phar-macologically, the physiological actions are emphasized and the practical therapeutic values are carefully pointed out. The conferences are informal discussions concerning the physiological actions, physical and chemical properties and dosage of drugs. Details regarding the laboratory experiments and prescription writing are also considered. The laboratory course in pharmacology consists of experiments designed to demonstrate the more important physiological actions of the drugs commonly used in therapeutics. The students working in groups of two to five under careful supervision perform most of the experiments themselves. Certain other experiments which can not be adapted to student equipment are demonstrated to small groups. Careful observations are insisted upon and the students are encouraged to supplement the laboratory directions with ideas of his own. The laboratory course in materia medica and pharmacy is designed to give the student an opportunity to become familiar with the physical and chemical properties of the drugs which he may wish to prescribe. The student is also instructed in pharma-ceutical methods and prescription compounding with special emphasis on incompatibilities. The writing of prescriptions which are criticized during the conference hours is also a part of this course. A IP IP ILII IE ID TIH IE IP aVIP IE D Y ICS DURING the entire Junior year two didactic lectures are given each week upon clinical diagnosis and therapeutics. In this way the student is prepared for his Senior work. The Senior year is comprised entirely of clinical work. The hospital provides twenty beds for this work. The class will be divided into sections and the students will be required to work in the wards approximately three hours each day under the direct tutorship of half-time members of the staff, in this way getting ample clinical material for the application of therapeutics. The students will also be required to work in the medical dispensary two days a week throughout the entire year. The professor of Applied Therapeutics will have two clinical conferences each week with the entire class. At these conferences the students will have an opportunity to present these cases in detail. Seventy-nine ©TCLcey IN SO FAR as the Medical School is concerned, heretofore, the Department of Laryngology and Otology restricted themselves solely to the Diseases of the Nose and Throat in the former, and Diseases of the Ear in the latter. In the hospital, however, each department had an Ear, Nose and Throat Service. The appointment of Dr. Matthew S. Ersncr as Professor of Otology marks a new era in Otolaryngology at the Temple University Hospital. For the first time in the history of the Hospital we see a division in the Otolaryngological Department; the Rhino-laryngological Department has divorced itself from the Otological Department and we now have two distinct services. Tins finer degree of specialization offers many advantages in the field of research. There are numerous problems pertaining to the car which the Department of Otology is endeavoring to solve. Early in October, when the first Senior section entered that newly formed Otology Dispensary, we had but one patient. Dr. Ersner had forseen that although there would be fertile soil for his work, there naturally would be a dearth of material at first. He was compelled to enlist the members of his Staff to serve as demonstrations as well as demonstrators. The barany chair was resurrected from a corner of the room and the audiometer and tuning forks were brought into use. I am happy to say that at the writing of these lines the Otology Dispensary has emerged from its embryonic stage and now has an abundance of clinical material, therefore making it no longer necessary for the Staff to lend their ears for the cause of science. NEUROSURGERY irHE Neurosurgical Department has undertaken a program of teaching and research II and is so planned as to give the student and post-graduate the highest degree of neurosurgical instruction possible and ample opportunity to investigate any problems presenting themselves in this new field. The undergraduate hours are designed so as to give the third year class one hour a week of didactic lectures on the subject. Here, opportunity will be afforded certain members of the class, as an elective, to indulge in the correlation of cases and clinical research. During the fourth year period, the instruction will be designed so as to cover the clinical operative field, devoting one hour a week to the review and presentation of illustrative cases, and two hours a week devoted to ward section work under the guidance of Doctor Edward L. Clemens. The division of the section work into small groups to study and observe the operative cases handled in the clinic will afford students an opportunity for individual instruction in the various phases of the problems presented in these types of cases. The opportunity for actual clinical as well as experimental research will be afforded certain members of the fourth year class who may desire to follow out problems of a neurosurgical nature. The investigative work being conducted under the McCarthy Foundation and in the laboratories of the new building will offer opportunity for post-graduate research in the neurosurgical, neurological and neuropathological fields. The aim of the department is to produce constructive and scientifically accurate work with the hope that each member of the department will become a contributor to the literature, to the advancement of the department, and the subject of neurosurgery as a whole. Eighty ||N LINE with the modern advantages in medical teaching, the Pediatric Department '■ has stressed bedside and out-patient group-teaching as compared to the former method of didactic lectures. In the Junior year the fundamental principles of the subject are discussed in a weekly lecture by Professor H. Brooker Mills, and in addition, methods of taking histories and nYaking physical examinations are demonstrated in the out-patient department. Twice weekly the students are taken in groups to the bedside, and introduced to the analytic method of making diagnoses. The Senior year is eminently practical. Class conferences are held twice weekly, and Dr. Samuel Goldberg discusses the diseases of the Digestive, Respiratory, Nervous, Circulatory and Lymphatic Systems as pertaining to the child. Dr. George W. Deitz discusses the cardio-vascular system, including congenital heart disease and chorea in their relation to rheumatism. Dr. Harry S. Snyderman discusses the Genito-Urinary System and Immunity. Ward instruction is given in groups, which covers assignment of cases for their complete consideration, including their own physicals, laboratory work, diagnosis and outline of treatment under the guidance of the teacher. Nasal feeding, gastric lavage, colonic irrigations, and intra-peritone.il saline or blood transfusions are demonstrated and indications for their employment discussed. The infants in the Maternity Department have this year been made available for teaching in the Pediatric Department, and various problems relating to feeding, prematurity, congenital defects, thymic disorders, etc., arc taught there. The H. Brooker Mills Pediatric Society has this year made progress. The aim at present is to make the Society an undergraduate post-graduate body. Various subjects of special interest are assigned to the members, and outstanding men in their various fields from our own and other schools have been invited to speak. The Society was probably one of the first, if not the first, to inaugurate this method of teaching, and attendance has included many men of the Staff and visitors. The annual meeting, which is always held on the birthday of the Patron and Honorary President, Professor H. Brooker Mills, is always looked forward to as the final climax to a successful year. NEUROLOGICAL “||“HE course in Neurology is given in the third and fourth years. In the third '■ year, emphasis is stressed on the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system with practical application of the principles. Systematic instruction by illustrative cases as they present themselves. Two lectures each week for the entire year are given. The fourth year work is a continuation of the previous year and consists of a review of the anatomy and physiology. The pathology of the commoner diseases of the nervous system is taken up at this time. Clinical cases of the more common neurological conditions are shown with informal discussions. Dispensary work is given twice weekly accommodating sections of six each. The Philadelphia General Hospital material is utilized once weekly for bedside instruction. Eighty-one ip n y$ n eaV il t p e paV ip e p ir«cs yA FTER several months of preparation, the new Physical Therapeutic Department was established at Temple, at the opening of the 1929-1930 session. A suite of three rooms in the Out-patient Department was assigned to the clinic, and over $5,000 worth of equipment was installed. The writer, after pursuing graduate courses at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School and in New Haven, and after studying various physical therapy departments in this city, in New York and in Washington, assumed the directorship of the department. He chose, as his chief technician. Miss Jessie E. Ryder, R.N., a graduate of the Massachusetts General Hospital Training School and a graduate physical therapy technician, who had been Assistant Chief Technician at the Columbia Medical Centre in New York City. Within two weeks after the clinic was opened, it was running to capacity; and after six weeks, an additional technician was needed. Miss Elizabeth Ask, a graduate of a Swedish school of physical therapy and also formerly connected with the Columbia Medical Centre, was engaged for this post. At the end of three months' time, the department was again running to capacity and it was administering one-fifth of all the treatments given in the Out-Patient Department. It was self-supporting. A didactic course was instituted for the Junior students, as follows: 1. Introduction—General consideration of the uses of physical therapeutic agents. 2. History of physical therapeutics. 3. Galvanic electricity. 4. Ionization—muscle testing. 5. Interrupted and wave galvanic, sinusoidal and faradic currents. 6. Static electricity. 7. High frequency currents. 8. Phototherapy, actinotherapy and thermotherapy. 9. Hydrotherapy. 10. Massage. 11. Therapeutic exercise and muscle training. 12. Review. 13. Clinical application of physical therapeutic agents. The Senior students were assigned as clinical clerks to the out-patient clinic, where they were given an opportunity to see the various types of apparatus in use, and where they were instructed in the actual clinical application of the various physical agents (the muscle correction apparatus, the whirlpool baths, the wave generators, the infra red, deep therapy and ultra violet lamps, the high frequency machines and the static machine). At its present rate of growth, the department will unquestionably soon outgrow its present quarters, and it is planned, on completion of the new medical school and clinic building, to enlarge the physical therapy clinic along the entire front of the present hospital dispensary space. It is felt that the organization of this completely equipped department of physical therapeutics has meant one more step forward in the rapidly developing course of instruction at Temple University School of Medicine, and that we now have a department that compares favorably with any in the country. It is hoped that the course will prove of value to our students after graduation, and thus indirectly benefit their patients. Temple Medical Students should be grateful that their University President has had sufficient foresight to provide the funds to place their school in the forefront in this new and, until recently, much neglected field of medical endeavor. Eighty-two TIHIE CCURSE IN DERM4TCL€Sy j ECTURES in dermatology are given during the junior year by Dr. Albert Strickler. Half of each hour is spent by the students in taking notes and the other half in marveling how it is that Dr. Strickler can convert a modest and relatively inconscquen' tial pimple into so living, vibrant, and dynamic a thing as to jump up at you and say, “How do you do, my name is Dermatitis Herpetiformis, what’s yours? Ward classes are conducted in the senior year at the Skin and Cancer Hospital of Philadelphia under the direction of Dr. Strickler. Because of the wealth of clinical material at that institution, differcnt_groups of the commonly met with dermatoses are demonstrated at each meeting of the section, as well as some of the less commonly encountered conditions. Special stress is laid upon the laboratory study of the mycoses, the taking of biopsies and the study of their histopathology. The student body of the junior and senior classes, as well as the members of the Strickler Dermatological Society and practising physicians, are cordially invited to attend the regular monthly meetings of the Clinical Society of the Skin and Cancer Hospital. Doctors J. I. Fanz, W. E. Robertson, and W. W. Babcock of our major faculty have addressed this society during the past year. Special work at any time during the year, including the summer vacation period, is open at this clinic under the guidance of Dr. Strickler, to any member of the junior or senior classes—a privilege of which a number of students have already availed themselves. msT©Lcey and emidiptcilc©y II ECTURES and Conferences—Professor Pritchard and Dr. Weigand. One hour II— a week throughout the session. A course of lectures and conferences covering systematically the subjects of Histology and Embryology. Special attention given to malformations and their causes. Gross specimens, charts, special drawings, and projecting apparatus are used to illustrate this course. Laboratory Courses in Histology and Embryology: Professor Pritchard and Dr. Weigand. Four hours throughout the session. A course in which the student and instructor, with the aid of projecting apparatus, microscope, dissecting microscope, gross fresh specimens, histological sections, embryos of one, two and three day old chicks, and sections of embryos of man, chicks and lower animals, study, draw and correlate systematically all the important structures of the body. The Professor of Histology and Embryology and his associates are constantly in attendance and in personal touch with the students. Deskside demonstration and recitations are given. The object of the course is to give the fundamentals which will permit the student to work out his own problems in histiology and embryology and other correlated branches. Individual research is recommended. Aid is given when needed. Department research rooms, projecting room, dark room, cameras, microscopes, reference books, and all necessary equipments for research are always available. A technician is in attendance. Eigkty'thrce A medic ATTEMPTS POETRY i One bright September morning In August, last July The moon lay thick upon the ground, The mud, down in the sky. The flowers were singing sweetly; The birds were in full bloom. I went down in the cellar To sweep an upstairs room. II It was a Tuesday morning, A Wednesday just at night, I saw a thousand miles away A house just out of sight; Its walls projected backwards, The front was in the back; It stood alone between two more And it was whitewashed “black. —V. Melchiorre. Eighty'four tihe student's reaction DR. FANZ .A S WE look back and try to visualize the hard hours spent under this man’s tutelage, we do not assume the same attitude we might have had years ago, but to the contrary, we can say he's a noble and a perfect teacher! His earnest desire to make one understand and his thorough ness in his work, are sentinels bespeaking his efficiency. He really had the student at heart and was preparing the boys in the most thorough manner possible, for he wanted to be proud of them in later years. So, for John I. Fanz, we can say he was a square-shooter, a thorough teacher and a master who possessed the ability to extract from a student the good which they had in them. DR. RIDPATH gentleman of the Nth degree should have been a I® sculptor because of the wonderful impression he molded and left with the boys last year. It was an impression which was indelibly imbedded and stored away because of his pleasing personality. He was more like a fatherly advisor, especially so, when he repeated his little saying, Now Boys. This phrase seemed to carry with it an expression of confidence which brought the student closer to the professor and likewise stimulated the listener to gather every thought as though it was a precious jewel dropping from a royal diadem. Suffice it to say that Dr. Ridpath will always hold a warm spot in the striped involuntary muscle of each and every student of the Class of 30. DR. ARNOLD DR. ARNOLD will he remembered by the Class of '30 for his unusual manner in which he presented his lectures. Unlike most of the other staff men, who at times spoke so rapidly that the most experienced stenographers would have met their Waterloo, Dr. Arnold's policy was, “Take your time and let it be registered by the process of osmosis. Thus, every topic, as well as ectopic was delivered in such a manner that there is no doubt in our minds his ultimate was accomplished. His often repeated saying, TIME and MORE TIME, just goes to prove that his specialty demands such careful, well planned precision. Eighty-jive DR. BABCOCK 1J HIS short, immaculate, partially grayed, ingenious man II taught the senior class the practical side of surgery every Thursday morning. No one case was repeated; each case was distinct and outstanding, showing points which demonstrated the things of interest and the latter was elaborated upon by a clever mind from a man with years of experience. He presented a wealth of material. It was an interesting hour and each student gathered abundant knowledge from this competent and sincere teacher. DR. HUDSON NSy'OU could see a big broad smile approaching the class room and as it came nearer, you could distinguish the features of a pleasant middle-aged man. He was always neatly dressed and usually wore shoes which some correct-deformity expert had persuaded him to wear. This man always commanded the attention of the class by his clear-spoken, well modulated voice transmitting its thoughts on Orthopedics. A recollection by a student of Dr. Hudson will associate his pleasing personality, the hours at Blockley, the ride home from the P. G. H. in his car and his lectures, which were essential to the medical man's make-up. DR. ROBERTSON WHO IS this making his way through myriads of atoms and dissecting vagrant ions? What man carries that all-egori-cal coat of academic shining blackness which becomes more apparent as one associates with him. He knows for his very friends R. Descartes, Girolama Cardana, John Napier, Franciscus Vieta and Leonhard Euler. His encyclopedic mind is a haven for data, and its recesses are sumptuously furnished with art, literature and philosophy. There is an impeccable blending of knowledge to throw light on the greatest good of all, that of healing. How often have we been listening in a state of enthrallment by his esthetic, uninterrupted, soothing, impromptu discourse. We speak of no other than Doctor Egbert Robertson, who cheerfully accepts captivity within the walls of the City of New Development while he feeds upon a manna made from the love of the past. And, wherewithal, can one find more graceful delineations to make up a great kind doctor or a better friend? Eighty'Six DR. KLEIN lg NE of the group of brilliant young men who recently came to our Institution from the University of Pennsylvania Medical School and who makes a valuable addition to our Major Faculty. From his very first lecture, we were impressed by the ear' nestness of this tall, distinguished looking young Professor, who resembled more the successful broker or a high-powered salesman, rather than the able Teacher and Physician that he is. His constant queries. “Am I going too fast? or, “Am I making myself clear? , indicate his willingness and his earnestness in teaching. He thinks nothing of repeating a long dissertation, in order that all may get what he is trying to put across—and the Seniors all agree, that we are getting our Therapeutics. This department has started out very modestly, but with the expansion of the New Medical School, the Department of Therapeutics will also expand and widen its scope. DR. ROBINSON ”11 EMPLE is indeed fortunate in obtaining the services of this li talented gentleman, who, has transformed a formerly dry course, into one of exceeding interest. The fact that the students no longer care to cut History of Medicine is proof of his ability as a lecturer. He takes available facts and clothes them with a beautiful raiment, with the result that his lectures border on the poetic. The man is a dreamer, a poet and a word painter, and every figure of speech seems to be selected with the definite purpose of giving his listeners the richest, fullest, meaning of the idea, possible. Being possessed with a really marvelous memory, it is not hard to believe that this man must have been a remarkable student. DR. HICKEY ICKEY is a man who upon first observation gives the impression that he is a grouch, but with association comes his true character, showing him to be a very witty person and a capable teacher. I like to think of him walking back and forth before the class during lecture hour with that peculiar attitude which reminded one of a mother trying to detect an odd aroma in her home. Then too, as an actor he is in a class by himself— his dramatic presentations of the erroneous ideas which some people have concerning physiology, were par excellence. His earnestness in his work is shown by his ingenious invention to clearly demonstrate the cardiac mechanism. The class will never forget the kindly ways of this Master Physiologist who had one outstanding feature and that is the ability to think for himself on hazy conceptions with good sound judgment behind all of his reasoning. Eighty-seven DR. HIBSHMAN .A ROTUND gentleman with a very conspicuous bald-head which we know carries a cargo of knowledge of Proctology. He drilled us in this unique subject and no one will ever forget the anorectal line because of the consistent teaching (and then some) by this affable man. His drawings on the blackboard with colored crayon were very realistic and helped remarkably, along with the powerful discourse to deepen the sulci of our proctologic area” in the brain. If we reflect his teachings, the travail of proctology need hold no fear for us. DR. MILLS ll—IERE is the grand old-young man. Liked by his students I I for his personal interest in them, his ability to make an hours lecture seem like ten minutes with his wit and humor, the latter keeping the student's mind so active that the impression which is left is equal to five hours of lecture material. He could always be depended upon to dismiss the class before any feet started scraping the floor, to let him know that the hour was at a close. He taught us from his own wide experience; the art of treating the parents first and then their infants. He was matter of fact and dogmatic in his teachings, in his own individual manner. He will always be spoken of as true teacher. friend and a sincere DR. PETERS |r R. PETERS won his way with the boys last year and his IB-' own true self had little difficulty in maintaining the kindly thought again this year. His original idea of the five-minute talk by the student to the class on assigned subjects met with hearty cooperation. I'm sure that after listening to those excellent dissertations on eye, he is still of the opinion that our class is the best he has ever taught. This novel conference idea met with much success and the student again profited by this unique manner of teaching. Dr. Peters enjoyed these hours with us, as was shown by his kindly smile and the sincere way in which he conducted the conferences. This competent teacher will always be remembered for his ability to teach, in a masterful manner, that delicate and intricate subject of Ophthalmology. Eighty-eight DR. JACKSON LONG before Chevalier Jackson's affiliation with our Medical School, we had known of him because of his contribution to science. We had only known of him thru print and 1 dare say it does not portray his true character. His kindly attitude is so pre-eminent, his modesty so outstanding; his brilliancy not over-bearing; his chivalry very noticeable; his appearances very soothing; his teaching ability the best and his knowledge of his subject so predominant that one can readily see why Dr. Chevalier Jackson is the man he is today. The Class of ’30 surely was fortunate when Dr. C. Jackson was scheduled on their roster. DR. BOWER his usual puzzles of ▲ T THE P. G. H. last year the class was under the careful and well chosen guidance of J. O. in surgery. I can recall the long hours of continuous standing in the surgical wards and the rapid fire quizzes of the finest degree from this man of unique surgical and anatomical ability. He always had a “sticker which the class could not answer, but nevertheless, in his own solemn way he would explain the question in a masterfully manner. This year he supplemented the ward work with lantern slide lectures covering a variety of cases in a very thorough way. It was very evident that J. O. B. has shown earnest eagerness to have the boys rightly prepared to solve the surgical tomorrow. DR. WINKELMAN g AN anyone in the class forget the day this statement was 'Ms made, “Gentlemen, I could give you an examination on brain localization and let you bring all of the books you wanted to class. How true these words are, because the mere utterance was sufficient to strike terror into the hearts of any of the students. We know Dr. Winkelman in all his gentleness and kindliness, and we appreciate him. His method of lecturing is de-cidely effective, very interesting and instructive in all its phases. We again, as a class, are very fortunate to reap the benefits of his exceptional teaching ability combined with a sincere willingness to help us understand. Eighty'nine DR. WOHL mi HAT will you do with it? What will you want to know? vv Next—you tell! How well we enjoyed those Monday and Friday morning quizzes, was reflected in the amount of knowl-edge which we accumulated during that one short hour. Without any pretension to eloquence, he nevertheless riveted our attention and stimulated our interest. (Early in the year), it was easy for us to see that truth was his object, not display; the advancement of science and not the gratification of personal feelings; in short, that in his mind was a deep interest in his subject and a thorough conscientiousness in the pursuit of it were the overmastering motives. Indeed, his most striking mental peculiarities consist in a power of compre-hensive and philosophical generalization on all the subjects that he discussed and in a fecundity of illustration that was almost inexhaustible. Our association with him shall always be remembered as one of the most instructive and profitable in the four years. DR. ERSNER OW, altogether—upwards, backwards, inwards, downwards b and forwards—that's right, let's try it once more. We admit that, at first, some of us had a spell of vertigo, but after repeating the above formula several times together, our co-ordinating centers took hold again and we had once and for all fixed in our minds the correct method of placing a speculum in an ear. Wc cannot help but admire his attainments in the medical world and his extensive and accurate work on the acoustic organ. Aside from his operative skill, there is little doubt that he owes much of his success to a mind which we found to be quick as lightning and sharp as a razor. His wit and humor are constantly permeating the prodigal exuberance of his thoughts and language. His ready smile and cheerful manner and his willingness to lend a helping hand are some of the other chief characteristics by which we shall remember the man. DR. HAMMOND || N THE days that come, it will be easy for us to recall his II ever-welcome and gracious presence. On his expanded forehead none of us could fail to trace the impress of a large and calm intelligence. In his most open and beaming smile none could help feeling the warmth of a heart which is the seat of all generous and kindly affections. When he lectured to us, his thoughts came in chosen words, dignified, yet unpretending, often playful, always full of lively expressions and humor that kept our unflagging interest. We shall always remember him as a gentleman, who, to all the best qualities of a complete physician and surgeon, unites the graces of a keenness of mind, and enthusiasm for his work and the fascinations of a generous nature. T incty DR. THOMAS DOCTOR THOMAS has perpetrated two puns where none had existed before. No worthy pleasantry was small enough to escape the meshes of his retentive memory and a liberal interpretation of waggish saws dissolved lecture monotony. If the Seniors heard laughter above or the Juniors sensed audible mirth below, they knew Hersey was brightening the corner where located. His lectures on prostatic hypertrophy were erudite and we are looking forward when Doctors Wolffe and Thomas will explain the P-wave in such a case. After this is settled we would not be surprised if Dr. Thomas would give free passage to Patagonia for all of the “A1 Smith Supporters. Whatever a therapeutic smile may be, Dr. Thomas it will be recalled is very efficient and concerned while at work, and to us Dr. J. Deaver's expression, Use uncommon sense,” applies to all G. U. procedures. DR. PARKINSON 11-1 IS nickname should have been “dynamite because when he ll I explodes a purpose he has in his mind he gets results. This is very much in evidence by the progress in the last few months. The members of the Senior Class will never forget our usual Tuesday conferences with this “go-getter. That hour always reminded one of the stories told by the older men, of the days when “Spicy was a quizz-master. What an hour of gruelling this neophyte dean put us through, but every man will concede that it was an hour of apt teaching. Contrasting the man in the classroom with the man he is in his business life is impossible, because he is always the same; a hard-working, conscientious, a real friend, and an ALL-FOR-TEMPLE man. DR. FAY Ak NEW department at Temple Medical School was inaugu-rated September, 1929, when Dr. Fay was named Professor of Neurosurgery. It was the beginning of a more concentrated effort on this deep and intricate subject than has ever been expended before and needless to say the deep secrets of Neurosurgery loomed on the horizon by the masterful presentations by Dr. Fay. His lectures are very dramatic and oftentimes the class was held spellbound by his verbal picturizations of cases. This is the first year that Dr. Fay has been with our institution, and we are indeed fortunate to be the first class to benefit by his instruction. His fine lectures, both from the standpoint of subject matter and interest, have given us a definite outlook on Neurosurgery and especially post-traumatic cases which we believe will prove highly valuable to us in the future. tyncty'One DR. PRITCHARD OB HE mucous layer consists of an epithelial layer resting upon !■ a thin basement membrane and a tunica propria, etc. . . . Not a one of us will forget the manner in which these words were said over and over again. Many a nervous disorder was caused when he held his quizzes. Before the first victim could answer his question, he had already said, “Next man, you tell him. His drawings in Embryology were always a source of amazement because of the accuracy and the speed with which he could cover the blackboard with embryos and their developing organs. However, even though he caused the boys many a restless night, we realize that it was all done for our own benefit and that he was building a foundation for our future. We appreciate his efforts and we will ever remember him as a man who had our interests at heart and a willingness to always help us in our histologic difficulties. PROF. LIVINGSTON HEN more of the spirit of cooperation and of helpfulness which has always existed at Temple Medical School was brought to us, as it was in the person of Professor A. E. Livingston, we were indeed grateful. He comes to us as the new chief of the Department of Pharmacology, after having spent the past eight years teaching and conducting research work at the Medical School of the University of Pennsylvania. Professor Livingston is rapidly increasing the efficiency of his department, and even with the present facilities, he has formulated a comprehensive laboratory course in Pharmacology. It is his aim, on occupying our new school building, to extend the laboratory work, and to develop pharmacological research. That the Department of Pharmacology will be in keeping with our new medical school, and second to none, are foregone conclusions of all who are familiar w'ith the effort and the determination with which Professor Livingston is attacking his work. DR. ROXBY ,A S A TEACHER, we feel that great credit is due him for making his subject interesting by mixing with pure anatomy a good deal of physiology and practical surgery and even a dash of poetry. His urbane and courteous manners, his native and simple eloquence, his remarkable powder of illustration, the singular beauty and sweetness of his style, all combined to render him one of our most popular and attractive of lecturers. As a friend, we have only to point to the fact that in our pre'dinical years it was to him that most of us turned for counsel and comfort. His inherent kindliness of heart was reflected in his understanding, his touching personal devotion and his consideration in dealing with us as students. We feel that in dedicating, this, our year book to him, we have only in a small measure been able to show' our appreciation for what he has done for us. T inety-two DR. SAYLOR THE mornings of 1927-28 in an ill-lighted and worse ventilated lecture room on straight backed chairs of incredible hardness and discomfort, some sixty smoking, whistling bantering, tussling students awaited the morning lecture in P. Chem. On the minute of nine, through the elevated door, came Dr. Melvin Saylor; lean, lithe, white-haired, brisky eyebrows over keen, dark brown eyes, wearing that well-known gray suit, changed on special occasions to the dark blue. With the entrance of Dr. Saylor, the tumult of waiting, exuberant youth gave way to the brief rustle of opening note books which was followed by a moment of attentive silence, broken by Dr. Saylor's agreeable, well-modulated voice setting forth with single clarity and directness, the groundwork upon which the morning lecture would be built. As a teacher, he is blessed with the art of imparting knowledge. He presents his subjects in a simple, terse and logical manner; he has the rare gift of clarity, accentuation and illuminating high points, avoiding unessential and confusing detail. His concise and forceful language, his humor, his wit, his interesting and picturesque illustrations never failed to make their deep and lasting impressions. He had in a marked degree, the ability of impressing his students with just the information he wished them to remember. His lectures in toxicology were gems. He contributed generously of his spare time and energy to the upbuilding of the Medical School. The welfare of the school is always very close to his heart. DR. STEEL .A REAL true friend of the medical student is found in this sincere surgeon. The proof of his sincerity will well be remembered by the members of the Senior Class, as one needs only to recall the demonstration of the method of doing an in-tracardiac injection of adrenalin. Most of us felt the thrill of his placing the needle over the ''subject's heart and the expression on his face, and the application of the force which caused most of the students to jump out of their seats. His lectures, although usually an hour in length, always seemed short. The hour actually had wings because he always held the interest of the student, as he, himself, was always interesting.

Victor Robinson, M.D. TTcR-CEASCUflUEffU E,tL Patertvoshro HISTCRY Clf THE CLASS Cf 193C jtf NUR four years at Temple Medical School have been replete with things historical. Dr. Conwell yet belonged to the University in the autumn of 1926 when the leaves were a falling and the waning fall sun streamed in through the open doors on prosaic Buttonwood Street. His pilgrimage to the past was the first event to take its place in this chronicle. Many of us listened to him speak at the Temple on his last birthday. The election of Dr. Bcury as president coincided to a nicety with the determination of our college to reach the medical apex with expedition. The new officer soon demonstrated needed action especially with regard to constructing a suitable medical school building. When that edifice throws its enfolding shadow across Broad Street it will broadcast the names and deeds of a faculty— the equal of any in the United States. Think back to the brief but heartfelt speeches of Drs. Beury and Parkinson when ground was broken for the new school. Is it not excusable to be sentimental over such tangible progress? Try to be a Freshman again. You could not if you desired, because it would be impossible to register in the dental building or listen to a materia medica lecture in the original lecture room, for the latter has been torn down. Alas, you will not be able to point out to friends where this or that great specialist of the class of '30 dozed through elucidations on opium action or grew nervous during a caffeine discourse or was moved by eloquent adjectives in accordance with an Oleum Tiglii resume. How brief, how short a time ago Dr. Scheele said: 1 know boys, it is not long ago since I sat on the benches. Sure, you remember it was Dr. Roxby who said in his always warm human way (among the gelid cadavers), “I want you to be happy here, fellows. It's going to be your happy home. Let us next go up the dark back fire-escape stairs and listen to a lecture by Dr. Fanz. Turn to your bacteriology books and you will see the dastardly revelation that bacteria are the ne'er do-wells of the plant family. Ponder over Babesia ovis and tsutsugamushi fever and be thankful you have neither; your mind's eye will always relegate Dr. Fanz to a background of feverish activity, vocal, freshmanic mycotic and sophomoric pathologic. The news prepared for the bacilli must have been tasty for the germs never talked back, not even the diabetic cocci impertinent over Dunham's peptone water. No matter where you are, in Greenland's icy mountains or Pittsburgh’s smoky strand, your memory will bring back to you the earnest reassum-ing meter of Dr. Saylor's voice on physiological chemistry. Histology was had by all on the third floor back—enough said! And the physiological laboratory with its maze of hook-ups and its temperamental batrachia! Kymograms now have an added value; if we look for a while on their glossy surfaces we shall see the smiling or impatient faces of the partners who forbore with each other. You will remember we were the first to work in this laboratory. Visualize Dr. Hickey's blackboard illustrations and recall the great heat mechanism controversy of 1927 on the second floor facing the street named for the first Secretary of the Treasury. During this exquisite epoch we had paid our money again and were taking or rather ogling Dr. Fanz's choice of pathology slides. An austere Laennec and the sweet sago soup that veered to Virchow, Ah. Ah! Ah! Try to perceive another time the quiet sedate walk of Dr. Sajous fils et la parapluie he carried. How relentless the parade of pharmacological truths and the acoustics of fountain pens. Appropriate to this history are all the histrionic rabbits that have since gone to glory. The minor surgery lectures from inflammation to thrombo-angiitis obliterans ring as true as the name of their author. Thus terminated the sophomore year after its invisible fingers had place a stethoscope in each student's hand. 'Hincty'Cight The junior year routine came as a welcome tonic to combat the effects of the monotonous (We must admit it) but highly necessary sophomore year work. The fountain pen dynasty was not yet over though; but morever it reached its supreme fury at the end of the junior year crashing into a wall of sixteen final examinations. Cheering was the resolution of our brilliant Dr. Babcock to return to the faculty so persuaded by a highly appreciative Senior Class and an equally cognizant Junior Class The publication of his surgery book will spread Temple's name everywhere. A story that can never grow trite or hackneyed is that of how our school won its long deserved class A rating during our junior year. Biblically it goes, “By their works ye shall know them. Wc were known to be clinicians by short white coats but besides we had the love of the freshman and sophomore years under our calvariums. It is my belief all of us were nervous enough at first thinking of hearing adventitious sounds in a healthy chest. Did not the appellation of doctor set up dreadful vibrations in your naive ossicles? This phase, however, was evanescent and demonstrated to be so by the learned papers presented in Dr. Beckley’s clinics which were enjoyed by everyone (except the clinicians intimately involved). When the senior year arrived we had mastered the patient-psychology-technique and felt quite competent. For all the sixteen examinations of the junior year and the great lecture marathons, did not these two semesters stalk rapidly forward into the still waters of the past with hardly a figurative ripple? The senior year had to come. At last it is here. These were the last steps we took across the bridge of student experiences into a fearful future of medicine in which we must know all, see all and solve everything. This must be true, for it was Dr. Wohl who said everything is possible in medicine. Not so fearful though, for thanks to each and every professor, our foundations arc secure; let the cohorts of trauma and disease producing organisms assail them as they will. History crowds into an overpowering degree now. Dr. Parkinson, who knows the needs of his Alma Mater as only one of her children can, is dean. He earnestly contrives and plans to make our institution truly great and achieve prominence among the best and his efforts have been successful to a very gratifying degree. Our dean is to the medical school as Dr. Beury is to the whole of Temple University. Dr. Matthew Ersner, also a Temple alumnus, comes back to share his wide knowledge within the walls of a greater medical school. The lettering on the wall authentically tells that Dr. Chevalier Jackson is now connected with this college, and with the coming of Drs. Fay and Winkelman, our faculty waxes greater and stronger. Doctors Kline, Livingston, and Pritchard add new grace and ideas to the teaching staff and should be inspirations for students interested in the subjects these men teach. It cannot be denied that it i:-truly and splendidly remarkable that our school should show such healthy growth in the short space of a year. In closing, can one find any course which so welds friendships, connolations, and associations as does a four year medical course? It is one of the few forms of study that can temporarily stem the syndrome of celerity of our modern American rush. Eight semesters can uncover the foibles, desires, weakness and other forgivable faults of friends but their good qualities are brought out as well. Think of what it means for a lapidist to part with a stone for which he traveled over the entire world to get. Discern the impoverished nobleman who sells his hoary heirlooms for common bread. Observe the artist who has given a great deal of time to secure a rich engraving, precious beyond pecuniary range, and who must sell the same by dire need. But these arc nothing compared to the four-year associations so carefully constructed that must now crumble away by separation one from the other. It is felicitous and very cheering to know that the beatitude of memory costs nothing to keep, never allows faces in its T'b’ncty-nm unmeasured realm to grow old and is always in effect like a potion from Ponce de Leon’s fountain even when only two classmates meet. Perhaps I need make excuse for the brevity of this unpretentious history. Eloquence of a Sir Thomas Browne or narrative of history as supplied by Prescott, Bancroft and Higginson might be adequate for its prolongation. Of these attributes I possess but little. We have played our part and each has acted his wont on this portion of the great world's stage, is the thought in perverted Shakespearian philosophy, and I have essayed to record it as 1 saw it. To use Cotton Mather’s pedantic words. Tis dreadful cold. My inkglass in my stand is froze and split in my very stove. My ink pen suffers a congelation.” Cotton wrote too much and so was quite forgotten; may it not be so with this history. Emily Dickinson, goddess of fruitful, thoughtful poetry, whose lines mean more the more oftener they be read, gives us As imperceptibly as grief The summer lapsed away Too imperceptible at last To feel like perfidy. And this without a wing Or service of a keel Our summer made her light escape Into the beautiful. In exactly kindred manner have these four years gone. Permit this history to be a kindly reminder of student days. Let is abet the remigration of gracious thoughts for the Alma Mater. If it were not well nigh sacrilege, I would substitute the word medical course for summer. Z. S. C. One hundred LEON BAXT PHILADELPHIA, PENNA.

However, he always came through in fine shape, showing that his inherent knowledge of things—medical, was sufficient to tide him over any difficulty with' out any special preparation. His natural ability and mental alertness which enabled him to quickly master details, accounts for his being among the best students in the class. Among other things. Lee excelled in physical diagnosis and several times startled us with his findings which usually proved correct. Indeed, many a neighbor glided through his recitations by means of Lee's knowledge of whispering pectriloquy. But. notwithstanding, whether he becomes a diagnostician or enters some other field of medicine his future is assured, for in him the qualities that go to make a successful physician are well proportioned.

Our worried minds soon became clouded with insects and bacteria, and we felt as did John Hunter when he said, “they wanted to stuff me with Greek and Latin at the University, but, and he pressed his thumb-nail on the table, “these schemes I cracked like so many vermin as they came before me. However, realizing that we were the experimental class in the new medical program, we managed to end the term of Esculapian struggles with fifty-four numbers. The experiment was a success and we were now a class A medical school. The Sophomore year had no sooner begun when we were earnestly engaged in the final preparation for the dance, in honor of the incoming Freshmen. It was a huge success and well deserving of the efforts of the Dance Committee. Our enthusiasm for medical knowledge was destined to suffer a great loss when Professor Saylor was injured in an automobile accident. How thankful we were when this kind old physician and perfect teacher was able to return and complete our course in Physiological Chemistry. Nevertheless, we regret this incident, just as in the previous year, our anatomical knowledge was lessened through the illness and absence of Professor Roxby. With our main attention and studies centered upon morbid-anatomy and human pathology, we think of Michael Servetus and the Inquisition: “And something sombre and severe O'er the enchanted landscape reigned A terror in the atmosphere As if King Philip listened near. Or Torquermada the austere. His manly sway maintained.” Finally in our Junior year, we find ourselves at the Temple University Hospital. The work seems tremendous, our task severe, and our interests overwhelming. With Surgery yet to conquer, we are convinced of the truth of Thomas A. Edison's statement that “success is one per cent, inspiration and ninety-nine per cent, perspiration. Our efforts have now been directed toward the most important event of the year, the “Skull Dance. The interest manifested in this social event has progressively increased, and rightly so, for the Medical School is rapidly advancing and all this in accordance with the ideas of our founder.

By the middle of June, however, it was found that we were straight on our course, and that we would arrive at our first port in September with practically a full crew. On the opening day of the piesent school year, our cosmopolitan group (see class picture) gathered on the campus at Eighteenth and Buttonwood, and each member related his pleasant experiences of the past summer, which, in some instances, consisted of laboring over anatomy, bacteriology, or chemistry, while sitting under the old apple tree. Each Sophomore seemed filled with confidence which was based on his success during the past year, and looked forward to the coming year for greater worlds to conquer. This tranquil state of mind did not continue, and there was soon a considerable disturbance of mental equilibrium throughout the class. It was discovered presently that not only the courses of study but also the stools are as hard this year as they were last. These courses are difficult, but the interest which they stimulate more than com' pensates for the hours spent in their pursuance. After the first few sessions in the pathology laboratory, we were convinced that it would not be compatible with life to scratch merely the surface. The subject of physiology requires many hours of pondering over collateral reading. The vastness of the subject matter of pharmacology often seems an impenetrable barrier to a successful completion of the sophomore year. Our course in anatomy, continuous and contiguous with that of last year, necessitates many an hour at chasing a knuckle of gut in and out of a hernial sac. Toxicology, although a half' year course, demands studious application. We have taken all these burdens seriously, for we have a reputation to maintain: we are the first class to enter our school after its recognition as a Class A institution by the American Medical Association; furthermore, wc are, in the opinion of Prof. Roxby and Prof. Hickey, the best medical class that they have known (excepting their own classes). Our serious attitude toward our w'ork has precluded practically all social activity. There was, of course, the traditional dance at which we were entertained as incoming Freshmen, and also the reciprocal in honor of the Sophomores- these are pleasant memories. This year realizing our responsibilities, we deemed it advisable to break the precedent of giving a sophomoreTreshman dance,—much to the chagrin of many upper classmen. We know that our efforts, as great as they seem to us, are but small compared with those of our teachers. Their untiring effort and their willing cooperation are an inspiration to us for greater diligence in our work. It is our hope that this inspiration shall carry us to the heights for which our faculty is preparing us. One hundred $ixty-tu o PRIMV5 Freshman Class FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Edward J.

What a whale of a difference a few letters make, and yet those are just key words to an adolescent nightmare. Aye, we were educated in the Arts—we had dallied in the sciences—we were social lions on the campus of old Siwash; but, alas! little had we dreamed that college-bred merely meant a four-year loaf. Caesar had his Brutus—Napoleon had his Waterloo—and believe you us, we are going to profit by their examples. On September 25, 1929, in the 18th Street, sector along the Buttonwood front, 110 frantic Freshmen stormed the studded gates of the impregnable fortress, the T. U. Medical School. We were the cream of the country, we had been accepted, and we had arrived to give the school a “break, only to find that “like all other bacteria, we must await a “portal of entry! Show us the Freshman with soul so dead, who never to himself hath said—“Will I last to Xmas or Mid Year's? But to get down to bronze carpet'fasteners, we are here because we are here and we are downright glad to be here. To ease the pain of being non-acclimated the alumni, the dear old alumni, tendered us a reception in the U. A. The U. A., ladies and gentlemen, is not a degree. We thought so at first, after reading our rosters, but soon learned our mistake; we were entertained in the “Upper Amphitheatre —and get this straight, never did social fever run higher than between us fellow'sufferers on that night! Probably, our first great professional thrill came when “Daddy Roxby bestowed on each of us a box of honest'to-goodness human osteology. In Bacteriology we grimly faced the traditional “horrible condition.” The great Fanz,.in all his resplendent rotundity, was profuse in advice from the start—“Be faithful to your books, gentlemen, and you need have no fear,” (all the while performing the proverbial double'joint scratching act). We came, we saw, we listened—and since “we paid our money we took our choice —we were faithful. The Histology department greeted us with a new plan of attack. “A machine gun had been imported from Jefferson and needless to say, at the first skirmish 110 unarmed Freshmen bit the dust. However, we like “Pritch and in spite of his “patchless foramen ovale we hope to get over the “blue'baby” stage. As for chemistry, we sit in awe with mouths agape at every lecture from that grand old man, Saylor, who, like Socrates, is one of the great philosphers. From the first of November anxiety began to show itself over possible exams. November passed and December came—no exams. Xmas holidays drew nearer; if ever an event was painfully awaited it was these holidays and as is ever the case they finally happened. For men may come and men may go but Xmas goes on forever; and how it did go. We followed the usual age-old custom perfectly—we carried books home and we lugged books back, but though the spirit was willing, the flesh was weak—nary a page had been turned. January was on us with the greatest potentialities but still no exams! What was the matter? The suspense was terrible! It was nerve racking to pick up the same books on their respective nights and each night start the review study from the same page—Page ONE. We were going stale! January passed—nay nearly passed when dear old John, he of the anatomical mind, finally threw oil on the troubled waters; he threw an exam. At last we were vaccinated—we hope it took. Time goes on! We are in a great school—we think it is the greatest and in a few years the world will think so too. The future of Temple University has no bounds; and we are proud of the opportunity offered us to share the responsibilities of this future. It is the supreme desire and earnest effort of the Class of 1933 that not only shall we establish a precedent in numbers but also in scholarship. J. E. P.

The Association, of course, is made up of the graduates of the Medical School. It has a governing body of officers and fifteen board of directors, who meet once a month during the school year to carry on the active business of the association. There are several functions that occur every year, but those that stand out are the Annual Mid'Winter Smoker, and the Annual Alumni Banquet at Commencement time; the members of the Senior Class always being our guests at these affairs. Our organization is ready and willing, at all times, to aid any member of the medical student body. We wish to congratulate the Senior Class in this publication of the Skull, and we take this opportunity of bidding you all a hearty welcome into the Alumni Associ' ation. Hoping that you will all become active members of the Association, Respectfully yours, J. Marsh Alesbury, President. One hundred sixty-nine (With Apologies to Kipling) If you can do a red-count when all about you Are foxing their numbers to make them true; If you can watch Jeff Clark with one eye, And watch the white blood cells with the other, too. If you can stay awake for two long hours And never tire or sleep on the microscope, Then the class should buy you a bouquet of flowers And you should go out and use the long end of a rope. If you can keep your head when all about you Are answering questions as if they really knew. If you can make sure of yourself when students doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too. If you can diagnose a case unhesitantly, Or take a history which is worthwhile Or make a patient feel residently, And do it with kindness and a smile. Yours is success and everything with it, And what's more—you’ll be a real Doctor! C. H. K.

Berderman One hundred eightymine A Ml ID SEMES YE IP NII GIPY' S ID IP E AM One Night when I felt weary and drab, I turned my steps toward the anatomy lab; That ugly, vilc'smclling uncomfortable goal Where embryo surgeons prepare for their kale, And learn, if you please, as the organ is large So in proportion must be their charge. As I say, one night I entered this place. Having, this time of contempt not at race, But seeking a nook wherein I may brood. Lost in the contemplation of nature in nude; And found myself, quite devoid of fear. In that very room where each on his bier Lay hidden by means of a cloth once white Now matching in shade the black of this night. I set myself down on that comfortable chair Which the school provides with loving care. And straightway bethought me of all the doles That fell to the lot of these heel-less souls; All the wise-cracks that were passed for wit Because in life they had sinned a bit. Of a sudden the room reflects a light That seems to come from hell's own night. 'Tis ghostly and eerie; it flickers and flits Like the flight of a bat which it quite befits. And all about me there's a stir Like the dead in the graves about to bestir. Each sheet moves, pulled by a hidden hand. And each form moves, as if trying to stand. At last where there once was a lifeless stiff There stands on each table what looks like a glyph. They all jump down and rummage around For their personal parts, which even if found Would prove unrecognizable, slashed by the blade Of neophytes clumsily learning a trade. The male seeks to find his crown. While the female forthwith casts about for her gown. Some fellow I see in search for his brain. If only he knew, he’d spare his pain. Some are sans eyes, and some are sans skin. Some are sans lips, and some are sans chin. Some are sans arms, and some sans breast. I'd better let you imagine the rest. And all these bodies, or what is left Seem to regain their vim. vigor, and heft. One huge, stout negress bereft of her fat Overjoyed by her lightness, springs around like a cat. One drunkard by jove has had his dream come true; In alkie he swam this year or two. This ghastly crew forms all in a ring And around in a circle they start to swing. Wilder and wilder grows the dance And the male to female begins to make advance. But I knew he'd be forced to continence For we quite had destroyed his Vas Deferens. Emanuel Ginsburc.

Bochroch, M.D. Alexander Silverstein, M.D. PASSING TIHC IBUCIK WHICH ONE? The College President— Such rawness in a student is a shame But lack of preparation is to blame. High School Principal— Good heavens, what crudity, the boy’s a fool, The fault of course is with the Grammar School. Grammar School Principal— Oh, that from such a dunce I might be spared. They send them up to me so unprepared. Primary Principal— Poor Kindergarten block-head! And they call That preparation! Worse than none at all. Kindergarten Teacher— Never such lack of training did I see— What sort of person can the mother be? Mother— You stupid child—but then you’re not to blame Your father’s family are all the same. Shall father in his own defense be heard? NO! let the mother have the final word. Quoted by Johnstone, E. R., Training School Bulletin, November, 1927. Two hundred six Though cancer deep should strike its root, Though palsy shake my feeble thighs. Though hideous lump on shoulder rise, From flaccid gum teeth drop away; Yet all is well if life but stay.” ilc-g cr the sen heir class 1929 Oct. 2 AT A MILL’S MEETING Dr. Mills— At a party for my grandchild last week, there was a couple came and brought their child. They introduced themselves as Mr. and Mrs. Bates and Master Bates. Too bad for the child; he should be referred to G. U. for a circumcision. Oct. 8 Chance claims he is going to be married by television. Shaeffer says he will get married when his hair grows in, while Baxt maintains he will be a spinster—of the three I'll take Chance’s chance. Oct. 9 A new feature for the Philadelphia County Medical Society meeting would be a debate between Kushner and Dr. Wohl, on the relative merits of a physical examination of unmarried women. Oct. 10 For the first time in two years the boys had a laugh in Dr. Goldberg’s class. He told us a funny story. Now boys quiet down and give me your undivided attention. Sez you. Oct. 11 Robertson list was posted—many hearts were beating 120 per. Then too, we must not forget the bradycardia of Stein. Oct. 12 Dr. Ridpath— She had enough horse serum to give her a night ‘mare’— poor girl. Oct. 12 A hard combination to beat—Shaeffer and Cincophen Miller working to gether in the Medical Dispensary this past summer. Oct. 12 Dr. Clark from the back of the class-room where he is operating the micro-photography machine: Now gentleman, do you see that giant cell in the center of the field. With eyes like his, bronchoscopy is due for a slump. Oct. 12 When one tries to see the patient in Dr. Hudson's Clinic in the lower class room, it is like trying to get in to the World Series. You have a feeling of formication—it's only the fellow behind you. Oct. 14 Dr. Arnold— I'll now show you a 3 months pregnancy. In walks Melchoirre late for class, as usual. Oct. 15 Kanofsky— I hear Dr. Hammond, that the priests, rabbis, and preachers have all been fired in Philadelphia. Dr. Hammond—“Is that so? How come? Kanofsky— Why, Hell is under Mitten Management now.” Two hundred eight Oct. 17 Trombetta overworked his suprarenals to-day when some one called him Parky's Assistant. Compliment to say the least, but it seems Fiore carries a rarefied medium on his shoulders. Oct. 17 Sound Advice—“When doing a physical on a child, remove all the clothing except the diaper and leave that on for safety sake.” Oct. 17 Dr. Goldberg—“Rosenbloom, tell me what you would look for on inspec-ton of a child's chest?” Rosey—“I would Notice the contour— Dr. Goldberg Yes, and the type of breathing, the intercostal spaces and whether they arc retracted or bulged; the apex beat, respiratory rate, prominences, etc. Thank you, Mr. Rosenbloom, that was an excellent rec-itation. Boys, that is the way I want a question answered, like Mr. Rosenbloom did. Oct. 17 Joe Schantz has decided to buy a Norris and Landis, after he told Dr. Goldberg that the coin test was only used on the Scotch. Oct. 18 Leiberman in class—“Patient's grandma died at 85—“ Oh, no, Doctor! it was her mother's mother. Oct. 23 From one married man to another—“Lawrence suggested to J. D. Wms that he should buy twin beds, drink a pint of cold water before retiring, and sleep on his back so that that it will not be necessary for him to sleep in class. Oct. 23 Social prestige of the O. U. Phi's is on the decline since the caterer has been serving Baked Beans. Oct. 24 League of Nations bridge-team: Spector, Lamp, Trombetta and Stein. Practice will be held in the new sound-proof room being constructed in the medical school. Oct. 28 Dr. Fay to a patient, (a married man, upon his release after a long hospitalization),- -“Now, do not drink too much water when you go home.” Patient—“I no go home for water; I go for a different 'ting'.” Apple pie. I'll bet—'member what Frank C. told us Oct. 28 When does a goose have the most feathers on it? When the gander is on top. Oct. 28 That reminds me, did you hear that Charley Barnes threw the town-bully? Oct. 28 Dr. Goldberg—“Mowry, what would you outline in the chest on examination. Mowry—“The lungs, heart and the spleen.” I hope Roxby doesn't read this or he'll have a regeneration of his 7th nerve. Two hundred nine Oct. 29 Baxt must have a hypo or epispadius, or else a poor parabolic curve, be cause he always uses the booths in the dug-out across from Mrs. Kreibel's domicile. Oct. 30 Dave Cohen mistook one of the girls in the junior class for Mrs. Kreibel, whom he thought was proctoring an “exam.” What mislead you, David—was it the legs or the form? Nov. 2 Dr. Beckley (walking into an “exam”) —“What is the idea of you fellows sitting so close together?” Gelehrter—“Why, Doctor, we are superstitious.” Nov. 4 Dr. Hammond—“How would you sterilize the vagina for a D ? C operation. Lockett—“Boil it.” Nov. 6 Lean- “Where are Cowpers Glands?” Caplan—“Cowpers Glands hug the vas deferens”—some squeeze! Hov. 7 Shaeffer and Chance arguing per usual during their lunch hour, in the lower class-room: Shaeffer—“I'll bet all the money in the Phi Chi Fraternity.” Chance—“I'll raise you a nickel.” Nov. 11 Gallagher to patient—“Bowels regular, Miss?” Patient—“Yes sir, every 3 weeks.” Nov. IS Myers—“Are you taking injections into the arm for G. C.?” Patient—“Yes sir.” Myers—“Which arm?” Patient—“Why, the short arm, sir.” Nov. 16 Dr. Arnold— In case of a post partem hemorrhage grab the uterus and run for a doctor. Nov. 18 Can't forget the night that the Grasshopper was on the porch of the Greatheart Maternity, in his long undies and his bilateral truss when a nurse walked into the room. He shied to one side like a new-born babe in the woods. Charley took it very good-naturedly. Nov. 19 Kanofsky delivered colored twins, both males, and he filled the birth certificates: “Moran and Mack.” Nov. 20 The first week at the Greatheart sure gives a fellow plenty of practice in doing urine analyses. The only compensation was the half-pint bottles some of the women used—you know in this day and age, bottles are quite scarce—needless to say anything of the contents. Two hundred ten Hov. 23 Trombetta will get along well with the day nurses at the Maternity. They likewise have enlarged suprarenals. T ov. 25 T'iov. 28 Hov. 30 Hov. 30 Dec. 3 That old familiar saying for 2 long weeks—“Bear down as if you are go-ing to have a bowel movement. That reminds me of the midwife who tried to tell me that she knew of a husband who had the labor pains for his wife. Pretty soon we'll be doing the cooking and wearing the dresses. I saw the man who threw the town bully every day and he was throwing the same thing if you dropped the “y.” “'member the morning at 3 o'clock when you were looking for the manikin to quizz us and you couldn't find it? Well I must confess, some one hid it behind the bath-tub. Bill Deitrich's chart at the Greatheart: How is your husband's health? “Fine, he labors. I do not know what this world is coming to. Soon we'll be having the ba-bies for them. Dr. Arnold claims he has a good friend living close to him—the undertaker. EXTRA! EXTRA! EXTRA! Dr. Thomas claims that the shock is so great in removing the prostate in the first stage of the two stage prostatectomy that the relatives of the patient even die. Dec. 4 If you are interested in Maternity work, ask Bill Bird about the time he delivered the twins at the Taylor Hospital. Dec. 5 Never before have I been so impressed by a martyr to the cause, as I was the day Joe Stickler had his chest shaved so that Dr. Astley could demon-strate hypodermoclysis, just as the bell rang and the class walked out. Dec. 6 Jack—“I see Babcock is arrested.” Mrs. Kreible—“Who had him arrested? Jack—“A woman. Mrs. “K”—“Well, why? Jack—“Because he opened her male. Dec. 9 Chance has the characteristics of an ostrich when Wohl calls on him. He sticks his head between his legs. Dec. 10 Professor, to the class—“You bunch of 80 per cent hydrated specimens”— nice guy, calling us nick-names. Dec. 11 Professor—“In making a diagnosis always play trump and call it syphilis. No more pinochle for me. Two hundred eleven Dec. 12 Lapsley's note on a chart: “No alopecia or baldness. I'll take vanilla. Dec. 13 Saul—“Do you know the difference between a pea and a bean? Martin—“No, what is it?” Saul—“Why, a bean is a vegetable, and a pea is a great relief. Dec. 14 Nothing quite so pathetic in class as when Cunin tries to throw the bull in a recitation. Dec. 14 O. U. Phis have headaches. Dec. 15 Kurtz—“What's a sinus? Jack—“A blind alley.” Dec. 16 A new profession will soon be in vogue known as the Gridiron Pathology. The pathologist travels with the team and just after a player has made a 90-yard run, he will dash onto the field and determine whether this player has an orthostatic albuminuria or not. Dec. 17 Prof.—“Speaking of the traumatic strictures better known as the Ku Klux Klan strictures . . . Dec. 18 Prof—“Classify strictures? Levin—“Acute and chronic. Prof.—“Yes, that applies to anything—ignorance also. Dec. 19 Lower animals do not have Lues, only higher apes and man—nice to be distinctive. Dec. 20 “Civilization and syphilization go hand in hand. Dec. 20 Lapsley's note on a chart in G. U.: “Puss from the left testicle. He must be doing the cat act. Dec. 21 Again the routine headaches. Dec. 22 Some one has been deceiving us. Only the other day a doctor told the class the “romantic area was on the back. But nevertheless I personally think the man is wrong. 1930 Jan. 6 The only thing I enjoyed about the vacation was the “Xmas Cheer. Jan. 6 Trombetta in response to a professor's question—“I’ll admit it grudging but not whole-heartedly. That proves the theory that he always has a grudge; and for the last part of the statement—well, that’s impossible. Two hundred twelve Jan. 7 Jan. 7 Jan. 8 Jan. 8 Jan. 9 Jan. 10 Jan. 12 Jan. 13 Jan. 14 Jan. IS Jan. IS Jan. 16 Jan. 17 Jan. 18 Shaeffer—“I'm going to get a job as waiter after doing all of these blood counts.” Chance—“How come?” Shaeffer—“Why I'm getting very efficient handling platelets.” Santa must have been a flapper with ultra-modern ideas by the looks of some of the ties the boys are wearing. Abe's wife— Abe, the Doctor told me I was going to have twins.” Abe—“How can he tell?” Abe's wife— Veil, he examined me and said I had two little gastric juice.” “A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world. Get busy, Lee. Prof. Ersner—“What are the ears used for?” Lapsley—“To keep your balance.” He must have had in mind Olson's ears. Herrington discussing jokes with Orthner: Lee— Why yes, all of these jokes you hear originated in my home town.” Walt—“So I notice. Usual post-holiday headaches in commemoration of the last-passing of the “Xmas Cheer.” “Fire and water are good servants but bad masters”—better watch yourself “procrastination.” Kushner, a non-user of the filthy weed had to bolster his courage with several cigarettes before reading a paper at the Robertson meeting. I thought the fair damsel he had with him would suffice in a situation of that sort. The atmosphere at the Robertson Meeting was very much enhanced by the aroma of Sam Forman’s cubebs. “The devil may have his faults but procrastination is not one of them”— wise up, Joe. Your companions are your mirrors and show you yourself. What I consider a real thrill- -“To see Chance after he had eaten a week's rations of pre-digested wild oats.” Levin while quizzing the class in eye reminds one of Shrader: “What am I thinking of?” The outstanding features of Cunin's recitation in eye was his ability to change his facial expression—one who did not know him would think he was trying to flirt. Two hundred thirteen Jan. 19 Pyramidon for headaches. Jan. 20 Follweiler—“I hear that you bought your wife a “baby'grand” for Christ' mas.” Lawrence—“No, I changed my mind and gave her an upright organ.” Jan. 21 “Handsome is as handsome does.” Ask the boy from Pittsburgh. Jan. 22 Assistance from the advertising staff amounts to the same as that derived from the photography department before the live'wire was put in place of the short circuit which was there at first. Jan. 22 The work done by Krechmer, Lawrence and Lockett so far in advertising is equal to the amount of talking Gelehrter would do if his hands were tied Nil. Jan. 23 It pays to be optimistic—“If there were no clouds, we should not enjoy the sunshine.” Jan. 24 While riding in the vestibule of a No. 34 streetcar approaching the intersection of 36th and Woodlawn Streets, the conductor remarked— “Fellows, there is the playground of the world.” He was pointing to the Penn Campus. Jan. 25 News has reached our ears that the Phi Chi's have stopped drinking tea. Jan. 25 Mowry—“What was that mistake which Dr. Beckley made the other day? Caplan—“I don't know, what was it?” Mowry—“I heard he mistook you for an interne.” Jan. 26 Lampasoma, the radio'electrician, got the “buzz” from the boys after his diadokokinesis answer in Neurology class. Jan. 27 Routine headaches. Jan. 28 Chance—“Did you hear the boxers song?” Leiberman—“No, what is it?” Chance—“My face is in your hands.” Myers—“No, that's the Barber’s song.” Silemsky—“It can't be so because that song belongs to the plastic surgeon.” New—“You are all wrong. That is the song Lapsley's girl sings to him every Wednesday night.” Jan.28 Snyderman—Always make the patient comeTor-table. Jan. 29 Winkelman showing a case to the class. “Gentleman, this man is unable to talk.” Gelehrter—“Doctor, did they get that history from the patient?” Just then somebody shot Joe. Two hundred fourteen Jd . 30 Schantz- “Hey Mud, give me a stick of gum, I have a bad taste in my mouth. Darkes— I know, I can smell it. Jan. 3i Prof. Thomas—-“Why would you use the dark-field on the chancroid? Dietrich—“To differentiate it from your syphilis. Prof. Thomas— Oh no, not from mine. It doesn't belong to me. Feb. I Remember Oliensis— See the Von Graeffe, see the stare; It isn't marked but nevertheless its there. Feb. 2 Some one mentioned to-day about having an eye for business and it immediately recalled my outside O. B. work. I was waiting for the head to come down while the mother paced the floor with her eighth in utero. Every once in a while she would straddle a bucket and hit it without bending a knee—now that’s what I call a eye for business, of course she had a head at both ends. Feb. 3 Dr. Fay gave us an explanation for fixed ideas in some people— A hernia of the brain treated with formaldehyde. Feb. 4 A surgeon doing an operation on the brain before a class was stopping a hemorrhage with his thumb by compression. He, desiring to use the thumb elsewhere, turned to the class and asked, What should be done? Someone in the class replied, “Amputate the thumb. Feb. 5 Miss Fisher of the junior class was trying hard to answer a question in Neurology but found it was impossible on account of an incomplete aphonia. Olson noticing this said to another classmate, “She'd try to talk even if she was gagging. True, brother, true, that was my impression, too. Feb. 6 I am chagrined by the attitude the librarian takes towards the honor of the members of the Junior and Senior Class. It seems to me she does not think there is an honest person in either class which is evidenced by the following; moving an examination hour ahead so that she might separate the class into two sections; her authoritative atmosphere which she expels in dividing the class for an examination; writing the names on the exam books which wastes ten minutes of the students’ time by calling out the names and having each student go for his books; “ponies the boys have in their pockets during an examination; her proposal of a stereoscopic apparatus for the new school in order to examine students before the examination to see if they have any cribs. People who think thoughts of this sort surely can not be very high-minded or else it maybe the sense of position because you know people do get that way. Two hundred fifteen Feb. 7 Doctor in one of the dispensaries—“Gentlemen, sign your names on this piece of paper so I can see what you are? Feb. 8 Silensky better be more careful when and where he sleeps, the boys tell me that J. O. is gunning for him. Feb. 8 It is a sight for sore eyes to watch Leonardo thrill the “Pinkies” when they bring a patient into Dr. Oliensis's clinic, (at least he thinks he does). He sits back with that nonchalant, Chesterfield air; gently gazing in their direction with his alluring eyes and his stethoscope hanging from his neck so that they can not forget that he is a doctor. He might be a Rudolph Valentino to the women and to himself, but to some others he is just a Rudolph. Feb. 9 Routine headaches. Feb. 10 George, the official “mopper-up” and “carriage-pusher was wheeling a patient into the operating room the other day when he gave her a few encouraging words. Here’s what he said, “Don't worry Miss, we are here today and gone to-morrow.” Sounds like “Chuck” Rosenbloom talking. Feb. 11 Here’s one I heard the other day. A young medical student was walking down Broad Street last November while the workmen were excavating for the “Temple Medical Project.” She said: “That's quite a hole they're digging across the street for the New Medical School?” He said: “Yes, but look at the erection they're going to put in it.” Feb. 12 Parkinson: “Differentiate Salpingitis from Appendicitis?” Gelehrter: “Why you would have tenderness over the ovaries— Parky: “No sir, not mine.” Feb. 13 When Follweiler recites in class, he reminds one of the guy who can spit tobacco-juice the farthest in a small farming town, sitting around the egg-stove in the country store and giving the boys the low-down on the current events. The modern term is “radio announcer.” Feb. 14 Tice: “What would you do for a hang-over?” Krechmer: “Circumcision.” Two hundred sixteen Feb. IS Dr. Thomas—“Give me the treatment of chancroid? Class in the rear of the room were making some noise. Dr. Thomas—“Be quiet, you fellows and learn how to get rid of it. Feb. 16 In eye dispensary. “Pat”—“Chuck, I had a dream last night that you were a flower. Chuck—“What did you dream? Pat—“I dreamt you were a bloomin' idiot. Feb. 17 Old Mother Hubbard went to the cubbard. To get her daughter a dress. When she got there, the cubbard was bare. And so was the poor daughter, I guess. Alamode Rosen bloom. Feb. 18 Madame Queen had a new dress on today—some class!?! Feb. 19 By the actions of our aspiring post-master student lately, I think he is getting a little balmy. He was memorizing the streets on his mail route the other day so that he can fill in the time elapsing between June 30 and July I. Feb. 20 The Juniors claim that Spaeth is becoming as popular with the students as Silverstein. Comparatively speaking that equals the amount of good which is derived from a Homeopathic dose of their 3X mixture. Feb. 21 It seems that by the comment from the boys concerning the “check and double check on the histories and physicals taken in Medicine that it won't be long before another member will be very unpopular with the Seniors. Feb. 22 Chart in medicine—“Tympanitis thruout the entire abdomen.” It must be terribly unhandy to carry your ears down there. Feb. 23 Routine headaches. Feb 24 The boys heard from the navy today and decided they were sunk. Feb. 2S Shaeffer suggests that we have a class election now that the Phi Chi's are quarantined on account of Scarlet fever. Feb. 26 Dr. Wohl claims that if you rely wholly on x-ray for your diagnosis, you will degenerate into a mere collector of reports. Feb. 27 Ulshafer—“What is the Island of Reii used for? Rosenbloom—“To park motor boats.” Two hundred seventeen Feb. 28 Dr. Frick—“Give me the signs and symptoms of peritonitis? Santorsola— Nausea and vomiting, pain, intestinal obstruction. Dr. Frick—“If he had intestinal obstruction, would he feel peppy and full of life? Lawrence—“Yes if he was Scotch. Mar. 1 Ulshafer—“Joe, what is your idea of Love? Strickler—“Whoopee without conception. Mar. 3 Trombetta has changed his attitude towards his associates. More power to you, Trom, I can visualize you as chief surgeon to Mussolini with this change of nature. Mar. 6 Babcock gave the boys a method of curing men who are morons—some of the boys took it to heart and intend to have an appendectomy. Mar. 6 A young man had a vasectomy performed and visited an osteopath later who told him he had a little atrophy of the interstitial cells but in a short while, with treatment, he would restore the organs. Some job. Mar. 7 After having heard Babcock's lecture yesterday, I have decided I need an operation. You know the voice is queer. Mar. 8 One of the boys asked me the other day if I have ever had my palm red? No, and I don’t think I will. Mar. 9 Lawrence says that when he goes to Heaven he'll be able to recognize Adam and Eve by the absence of the umbilicus. Mar. 10 Sam claims that Lee wears spats on account of the metrorrhagia. Mar. 11 Heard today that cows eat the placenta. That's a new one. Mar. 12 Dr. Oliensis— What's your idea of hypertension. Serious or not serious? Stickler—“Semi-serious.” Mar. 13 Dr. Barnes—“Mrs. Soso, who is the father of the child? Patient—“If a buzz-saw hit you would you know which tooth it was that cut you. Mar. 14 He—“Have you read Blumer's? She— No, I don't wear them. The time has come when this little resume of the year must come to a close and I sincerely hope that no offense or ill-feelings have been made because, after all, this is the other side of our life. Two hundred eighteen pKthisica I trendeUnberfij tfi assistants associates professors IPOD IK? RICHARD, JR. aV IP DILI IE ID T€ CLASS 193C (Apologies to the Saturday Evening Post) IjzOOLS rush in where angels fear to tread—reminds one of the few members in the II class trying to get a good look at a clinic. Fast living makes a slow liver, which applies to 25% of the class, with the Dutch in the lead. It is always too hot or too cold for the fellows who want to quit—ask Lee. Whistling to keep up the courage is all right, but the whistle should not be wet- -sez Joe. Beauty may be only skin deep, but the knowledge of it is very penetrating—this is Lapsley's remark. He who takes his own time generally takes other people’s too—very true of Santorsola with his last minute questions after the bell has rung. If speech were only to conceal thought, some people would lose nothing by keeping mum—memoirs of Spector. Bought politeness always wears a price tag—political Berger. When money talks it often merely says “good-bye —reminds one of Lawrence. The trouble with an elastic conscience is that it is apt to fly back and sting you— is that right, Tice? A thousand dollar boy with a ten thousand dollar education is over capitalized, just think of Lampasona. JThose who are five minutes late do more to upset the order of the class than all the anarchists—Melchiorre. We are told we have descended from the ape; but some of us are using round-trip tickets; draw your own conclusions! The best way to get even is to forget—so Ulshafer found out. We can stand our misfortunes but not our boasting friends. Storms blow over, braggarts blow ever, so does Stein. The man who says nothing may not win much but he generally has a popular funeral—you have something coming to you, Mac. A little cupid is to blame for some marriages and a little cupidity for others— which category are you in Kanofsl(y; how about you, Caplan? Reed says—like all heroic measures, matrimony demands enthusiasm. Handsome is as handsome does; but it saves a lot of shaving to be born good looking; what do you think, Coll? The average humorist never knows when he is at his wit's end and neither does Mo wry. Dave Cohen thinks a straight life is the shortest distance between honesty and honor. Art is long, but artists frequently are short—here’s one that is not short but long, meaning, you'll go a long way to find one as good as Lieherman. Two hundred twenty An easy youth means a hard old age—better get ready, Krechmer. The man who can bottle up his wrath at all times is a corker—That's Pat! A gift in the hand is worth two in the tree—so thinks Baxt. 7 ew says—take care of the holly and the mistletoe will take care of itself. Punctuality meets an engagement, promptness meets a situation, proficiency meets both, but Schantz meets none. Any fool can spend money; some fools can make it; but the fool who can make it and keep it cheats folly and becomes wise—Wall St. Orthner. Occasionally it seems as though the only leisure class in America is composed exclusively of telephone operators and Gallagher. Some men are born foolish and some preserve their old love letters like Leonardo does. The merchant who does not advertise never needs the rest cure—better sell your-self first, Holley. Dreams are thoughts with the facts left out—wake-up, Larson. Living costs more in these days and it is worth more to live, but Trombetta does not think so. A man who trims himself to suit everybody will soon whittle himself away and Kivler is looking haggard. A penny saved is a example to the other 99 cents—at least Chance thinks so. The proof of the home is in the nursery and if you don't believe it, ask Bird and Iuiwrence. The only man braver than the hero who fears not ridicule is he who fears it and yet faces it in a good cause, reminds one of Ersner. A second is lost every time a lazy man looks at the clock—how about it, Speed? Shaeffer's motto—Save the pennies and the dollars will not have to be broken for street car fare. Saying the wrong tiling is misfortune; but trying to explain it is disaster—isn't it, Lockett? Saul found out that experience is one teacher that takes no vacation. An indispensable man never knows it—yea, Rosey? Only the successful have the work of responding to encores—Bortz and his surgical dispensary. Forman thinks wisdom is profitable to others; common sense to one's-self. A man of one idea spells it with a big I—Harry Cunin. There are more wife-made men than self-made men—think of Bill Deitrich and Leo Cap lan. Curiosity loves to mask as tender solicitude- -Silensky. Two hundred twent 'one I L U IE $ I With all due apologies to Maurice Chevalier— but. who nows, apologies may not be necessary. Every doctor sees That my spots mean LUES! Secondaries That whisper “Louise” Each macule grows And quite readily shows I hugged you, hugged you. All the roughened beats That they hear in my heart Mean spirochetes Well lodged in the part.

And in time they always claim us for their own, There are germs of every kind. In any food that you find In the market or upon the bill of fare. Drinking water's just as risky As the so-called deadly whiskey, And it's often a mistake to breathe the air. Some little bug is going to find you some day, Some little bug is going to creep behind you some day Then he'll send for his bug friends And all your earthly trouble ends, Some little bug is going to find you some day. The Inviting green cucumber Gets most everybody's number While the green corn has a system of its own Though a radish seem nutritious Its behavior is quite vicious And the doctor will be coming to your home Eating lobster cooked or plain Is only flirting with Ptomaine, While the oyster sometimes has a lot to say But the clams we eat in chowder. Is a pleasant way to die, While sauerkraut brings softening of the brain, When you eat banana fritters Every undertaker titters And the casket maker nearly goes insane. Some little bug is going to find you some day. Some little bug will creep behind you some day, With a nervous little quiver He'll give you cirrhosis of the liver Some little bug is going to find you some day, When cold storage vaults I visit I can only say “What is it Makes poor mortals fill their system with such stuff, Now for breakfast, prunes are dandy, If the stomach pump is handy, And your doctor can be found quite soon enough, Eat a plate of fine pig knuckles. And the head stone cutter chuckles While the grave digger makes a note upon his cuff, Eat that lovely tied bologna And you'll wear a wooden kimono As the relatives start scrapping about your stuff. Some little bug is going to find you some day, Some little bug will creep behind you some day, Eating juicy sliced pineapple Makes the Sexton dust the chapel Some little bug is going to find you some day. All these crazy foods they mix Will float across the river Styx Or they'll start us climbing up the milky way. And the meals we eat in courses, Means a hearse and two black horses, So before a meal some people always pray, Lucious grapes breed pendicites And the juice leads to gastritis So there's only death to greet us either way, And fried livers nice but mind you; Friends will soon ride slow behind you And the papers soon will have nice things to say. Some little bug is going to find you some day Some little bug will creep behind you some day Eat some sauce they call it Chili, On your chest they'll place a lily, Some little bug is going to find you some day.

Gladstone Hotel, 1101 Pine St., Philadelphia, Pa. Doctor: “You arc a great deal better this morning, I see. You followed my dircc tions and that prescription did the business.” Patient: “I couldn't take any of that prescription you gave me, doctor.” Doctor: “What! What do you mean you couldn't take any of it?” Patient: “How could I—it says on the label, ‘keep the bottle tightly corked.' ” Bessie: “The doctor says mamma must take a constitutional every morning. What's that mean?” Bobby: “That means walking.” Bessie: “Then why didn’t he say walk?” Bobby: “I don't know, but I guess maybe if he called it that he couldn't charge for it.” Fussy Lady Patient : “I was suffering so much, doctor, that I wanted to die. Doctor: “You did right to call me in, dear lady.” Mother (after visitor had gone) : “Bobby, what on earth made you stick out your tongue at our pastor? Oh, dear!” Bobby: “Why, mother, I iust showed it to him. He said, 'Little man, how do you feel?' and I thought he was a doctor.” The Sophs at Baylor were asked to give the cause of infant mortality on a written test. Among the causes listed by one student was, “Sporadic diseases caused by spores.” Son: “Daddy, what is meant by a year of interne?” Father: “Why, son, it is to give the young doctor a chance to forget what the pro-fessors have had him to learn, and to give him, a chance to learn some facts that will enable him to practice medicine.” Little Tommie (to his Sunday school teacher) : “What is the difference in the great physician and the modern doctor?’ Teacher: “Well, the great physician could raise one from the grave in three days and the modern doctor can put one in his grave in three days.”—Denton Kerr. Two hundred twenty nine Say you! roared the cop, “what’s the idea of hanging around this corner with a shot gun?” Why, a conductor eloped with my daughter. Well, what's that got to do with you hanging around here? Believe it or not, I'm waiting for a street car. And now comes the dumb taxi-driver who is carrying change. His physician told him that was what he needed.

It's very annoying when a girl, who wants to look for a needle in a haystack, has a fellow who can't find a haystack. Mabel says her sweetie is like a clock because his hands are never idle. They called her Alma Mater —she educated a lot of the old boys. Oh, I knew she was the ball player's daughter, because she put the boys out before they got to first base. Two hundred thirty STATE IB'OaVRID State Board ’Xaminations are in our state to stay. To frighten poor wee doctors, and drive our brains away. It's fifty-five or maybe sixty we get for all our grind, And staying all our evenings home improving our young mind, We can't go to the Fox, 'cause it takes up too much time; We have to stop that novel short before its reached its prime. We simply can't afford to sleep when “M.D.'s” are in doubt, Cause we'll up and miss 'em, IF WE DONT WATCH OUT! MEDBURY SAYS: Physicians have had so much trouble collecting their bills lately that one surgeon has hired a credit man. He looks into your financial condition before the doctor looks into you. He says: Too many people are getting sick who can't afford it. They expect a major operation on a private income. They want 50 per cent down and the balance when you come out of the ether. One doctor has a cash register on the operating table. The choicest cuts are C. O. D. Incisions are expensive, but if your references are alright he'll be glad to open you on credit. A lot of doctors will not sharpen a knife without a deposit. One man was such a spendthrift that he went into an operating-room and ran up a bill of $1,200. The doctor removed so many things that the poor fellow had to call in a public accountant and have himself audited. He wanted to see if he balanced. For $1,200, his sides should have been pleated. It is foolish to pay a surgeon h lot of money for a little fancy sewing when you can hire a good seamstress for $3 a day. Two hundred thirty-one winy should « be siicie? My daddy is a doctor, So why should I be sick? Then please turn loose some X-ray juice, And make me better quick! I wouldn't have the measles: Your nose gets full of “sneezles.” 1 wouldn't have the mumps: Your cheeks get full of “bumps.” I wouldn't have the whooping-cough: It makes you blow your head off. I won’t be sick abed; I'd rather play instead. If nothing else will cure me, Then try the diathermy. My daddy is a doctor, So why should I be sick? Then please turn loose some X-ray juice, And make me better quick. —L. J. B., Medical Journal. Abstract from a current magazine: Keep all of the windows open and avoid letting fresh air in. Always dress warmly, wearing the thinnest of clothes. Take no medicine and use the Doctor's prescription as directed. Stay in bed and rest; taking long walks daily. Eat sparingly; and do not mind the quantity or quality eaten. Avoid all exertion and do not fail to take some form of violent exercise. Keep to light underwear, red flannels is the best. Keep the throat uncovered, swathing it in woolen bandage.
