 — The good doctor pay constant attention to keeping people well so there will be no sickness. —Huai Nan-tzu Chow Dynasty (1121-249 B. C.) WILLIAM h. RAMSEY, II In the summer of 1915, Bryn Mawr became the birthplace of William Ramsey. Lower Merion High School in Ardmore provided him with sufficient credits to enter Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. In that tobacco country he found enough balmy days to play varsity tennis, eventually playing in the National Intercollegiate Tennis Tourney. He enjoys taking motion pictures and has many reels taken while vacationing in Maine, the Bahamas and elsewhere. In the Spring of 1940, he married Kathryn Williams. Bill goes to Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, Pennsylvania, for senior interneship. Being somewhat interested in proctology, he may pursue further study in that field. • 27 •

Divide your attentions equally between books and men. Sir William Osier On March 5, 1915, Joe became a part of the population of Allentown, Pennsylvania. His preparatory work prior to college days at Temple University was taken at the Vineland High School in New- Jersey. While getting daily workouts in wrestling and freshman football, he found time to be a stage manager in Mitten Hall. Summers saw him gathering shekels by farming, truck driving and becoming rather adept at steam fitting. His hobby, carpentry, stood him in good stead while holding the position of house manager for the Phi Chi's during his senior year. At the end of his junior year he spent a summer on the traumatic surgery service of the Conemaugh Valley Memorial Hospital, Johnstown, Pennsylvania. He will probably interne in an army hospital and, having had eight years experience with the National Guard, will undoubtedly join the Army Medical Corps. JOSEPH H. REMO • 26

At a time when few things are called by their right names, when it is against the spirit of the times even to hint that an act may entail consequences—you are going to join a profession in which you will be paid for telling men the truth . . . —Rt dyard Kipling (1908) JOHN T. REILLY Morristown, New Jersey, is famed throughout the civilized world for the splendid results obtained there in creating new horizons for the blind through the medium of man’s canine friend. John was born there in 1915. His father, a most constant companion, acted as monitor in his choice of vocation. He attended Bayley School, in Morristown, then went to Holy Cross College for pre-medical work. The most cherished avocations are hunting and fishing, but soulful sedation is culled from the melodious strains of the philharmonics. He is a member of the Phi Chi Fraternity and the Babcock Surgical Society. Last summer, he increased his practical knowledge by interning in both the Jersey City Medical Center and St. Mary's Hospital in Hoboken. For senior training, he goes to St. Vincent's Hospital in New York City.
