In 1891. Dr. Conwell and the leaders of the Baptist I emple founded the Samaritan Hospital, at Broad and Ontario Streets. In 1901 the Temple College School of Medicine was opened, using the Samaritan Hospital as its teaching institution. At first this was a fine year evening course with classes held in the main college buildings at Broad and Berks Streets and at the Samaritan Hospital. It became necessary to abandon the night program in 1909. and the day classes which had been started in 1907 were expanded I he facilities of Garrettson Hospital, the Philadelphia Dental College, and Cjreatheart Hospital were utilized at successive periods in the growth of the medical school to pro vide room for its rapid expansion. The year 1929 was a memorable one in the history of the Medical School. The pres ent eight story building was constructed across Broad Street from the Samaritan Hospital, which then was named Temple University Hospital. Dr. William N. Parkinson became the third dean that same year, and the Medical School received a Grade A rank from the A.M.A. Council on Medical education. Under Doctor Parkinson and Dr. Robert L. Johnson, who became president of I emple I 1niversity in 1941, the Medical School has continued to grow. I his year, 1953, construction will be started on a new in-patient building to accommodate 375 patients. Plans also include an eight story out-patient department to make possible 100,000 out patient visits a year. And so the story of Johnny Ring and Russell Conwell and Acres of Diamonds' is yet being told, and this is but another chapter.
