began on the new and modern building for the Medical School at Broad and Ontario Streets, to be built at a cost of one and a quarter million dollars. The splendidly equipped building was dedicated on October 15, 1930, by Dr. W. J. Mayo, and classes began for the largest student body in the history of the school, 450 students. The first and second floors of this new building contain dispensaries and admini-strative offices in addition to the beautiful library, which houses the growing collection of medical books. The third floor is devoted to the Departments of Neurological Research and Pharmacology. The fourth floor is the abode of the Departments of Physiology and Biological Chemistry, and the fifth floor is shared by the Departments of Histology and Embryology, Pathology, and Bacteriology and Immunology. The Departments of Anatomy and Radiology occupy the sixth floor. The anatomical dissection rooms and materials are second to none and the X-ray museum, opened in 1934, offers a tangible method of study in this field. The seventh floor is utilized for the storage of animals, Surgical Research, and various small laboratories. Several further changes took place in the hospital, increasing its usefulness to the public and to the student body of the medical school. Due to the efforts of Professor Babcock's many friends and admirers, the Babcock Surgical Wards were furnished in 1930, providing 40 beds. In 1931 the magnificent Radiology Department was opened under the able directorship of Professor Chamberlain, who joined the faculty in 1930. This department was equipped at a cost well above $150,000. The Great-heart Hospital service was discontinued in July, 1932, and a maternity department was established on the fourth floor of the Temple Hospital with a capacity of 35 patients. At present, the hospital has 449 beds, and is one of the finest teaching hospitals in the city. It accommodates, on the average, 327 patients daily. It is obvious from this sketchy resume that the Medical School of Temple University and its allied Hospital have come a long way in a relatively short time and it is to be hoped that they will ever progress, aspiring to greater usefulness to humanity. 21
