Dr. Theodore L. Chase Dr. Chase began his practice at 1604 Walnut Street, and was associated in research with the late Dr. John B. Deaver and Dr. Howard Kelly of Baltimore. He retired from active practice in 1933 and moved to Reno, Nevada. While Dr. Chase was known to only a few of us by sight, he was known to all of our class by reputation. As a benefactor of Temple University, he. in 1945, provided for the establishment of the Agnes Barr Chase Surgical Research Foundation in memory of his wife. It would be difficult to find a more fitting tribute. In dedicating this page to Dr. Chase, we mourn the passing of a fine surgeon and a noble spirit. Ill]

He was the author of numerous articles on chest diseases and was chairman of the tuberculosis committee of the Philadelphia County Medical Society from 1940 until this year. Our association with Dr. Cohen, though brief, was more than enough to establish him in our minds as a gentleman, an excellent clinician, and an outstanding teacher. It was with deep regret and a sense of personal loss that we learned of his death. MO]
