We have attempted to capture these hands performing as mam services as are imaginatively possible. It is out purpose that the reader better appreciate and remember the facility with which they perform, the comfort they can convey, and the skill the) must possess. franklin I). McDonald and Fred I).

DEDICATION OF THE 1962 SKULL TO JOHN LANSBURY, M.D. 4 Teacher, clinician, investigator, friend these are the roles which Professor John Lansbury has filled in our medical school career. YVe first formally met this gentleman during our Sophomore course in Physical Diagnosis. As we now know, history-taking is probably the most important step in arriving at the proper diagnosis in any patient, and it was l)r. Lansbury who, at that time, instilled in us the basic concept of accurate detective work in eliciting histories. In these few hours we were impressed by the man and looked forward to future associations with him. Our anticipation was rewarded in out Junior seat when Dr. Lansbury gave a series of lectures in rheumatology which we found most informative: we only wished that he had more time to expound on other topics. Finally, as Seniors, we worked at his side in the care of patients, profiting from the personal contact and interchange of ideas not obtainable in the lecture amphitheatre. Here we could fully appreciate Dr. Lansbuiy's dedicated and tireless professional attitude. That these capital qualities had been present throughout his life was amply demonstrated to us when we had the pleasure of sitting down with this man one evening to find out more about him. Horn in Cheddar, Somersetshire, England in 1897, John, the son of the Reverend Wallace George and Mrs. (Mary Gadd Lansbury, obtained his early formal education there before emigrating with his family to Toronto, Canada in 1911. Financial necessity precluded further schooling at this time and the next font years saw our future physician employ his time successively with a stock brokerage firm, as a newspaper cartoonist, and even as a vaudevillean. The outbreak of the Great W ar in 1911 further post- poned his academic career. He volunteered for Army-Service and spent several years in the Canadian Expeditionary Force, two of which were passed on the battlefields in France as a member of the field artillery. With the coming of the Armistice, this voung inan of twenty-two returned to Canada, desirous of pursuing a course in medicine but thwarted by the fact that he had taken no formal education after the age of fourteen. He undertook an ambitious program of self-education. enrolling in a high school, where he managed to condense a four-year course into ten months. After graduating cum laude, he entered Queen’s University at Kingston, Ontario, where he enrolled for the combined six-year course of undergraduate and medical school training. From the Queen’s Faculty of Medicine he received his M.D., C.M. degrees in 192b, and was awarded a gold medal at graduation for excellence in medicine. His internship year at the Montreal General Hospital was followed by a medical fellowship at the famed Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Circumstances again forced our future professor to lay aside his academic ambitions for two years. After a trial of working in psychiatry at a mental institution, he entered private medical practice in Toronto and was later able to return to Rochester to complete |x st-graduate training. This he did in 1933, being awarded in that year an M.S. in Medicine degree from the University of Minnesota. He subsequently became a Diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine. In 1934, Dr. Lansbury came to Philadelphia where, under a former preceptor from the Mayo Clinic, he worked at the Philadelphia Institute for Medical Rc- 5 search of the Philadelphia General Hospital. One day, in 1935, he was asked to lecture before the student body of the Temple Medical School as a substitute for his chief, I)r. Leonard G. Rountree. In the audience that day there happened to be an oft-present person, Dean William N. Parkinson. The Dean was quite taken with this young investigator and, as part of the current reorganization of the Department of Medicine, offered him the post of Associate Professor. This Dr. Lansburv accepted and. in the intervening years, he progressed to become Professor of Clinical Medicine, and Head of the Connective Tissue Disease Section, Department of Medicine. Temple University Medical Center. Even before entering upon the Temple scene, Dr. Lansbury became interested in the field of rheumatology when he worked with the later Nobel laureate, Dr. Philip S. Hench, at the Mayo Clinic. This interest in rheumatic diseases was spurred in 1936 when the French investigator, Dr. Jacques Forestier. came to Temple and reported his success in controlling rheumatoid arthritis by the use of gold salts. Dr. Lansbury did not confine himself to the field of rheumatology, however, until 1949. Before that time he also headed the Endocrinology Service at Temple and engaged, as he still does, in a full round of teaching, clinic and private practice. That he is active and well-known in the field of medicine is attested to by the following partial list of organizations to which he belongs, and the posts he holds in them: member of Alpha Omega Alpha, Fellow of the American College of Physicians, second vice-president of the American Rheumatism Association and Chairman of its Committee for the Evaluation of New Therapeutic Agents, former president of the Eastern Chapter of the Arthritis and Rheumatism Foundation, past president of the Philadelphia Rheumatism Society, past Chairman of the Section on General Medicine, College of Physicians of Philadelphia, and member of Sigma Xi and Phi Beta Pi. In addition to these activhies, Dr. Lansbury serves as a Lecturer in Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Medicine, and has written over seventy articles, covering mainly cndocrinologic and rheumatologic problems. At present. Dr. Lansbury is interested in the furtherance of the use of Interlingua, an international language used widely for summaries of scientific articles. He serves as a co-editor for a section in Hol- 6 lander's Arthritis, and writes editorials for various medical periodicals. He is investigating basic factors in causation of the arthritic state and has developed a system for objective evaluation of therapeutic results in rheumatoid arthritis. When not engaged in these or other scientific pursuits, he can be found with his charming wife. Louise, and their three children, John. Roger, and Anne. His principal literary pastime is reading various anthropological and philosophical works and, in addition, he can occasionally be found working on pen and ink sketches - a throwback to his cartoonist days. We gratefully dedicate our Skull to Or. John Lansbury - able clinician, inquiring researcher, capable teacher, and. above all, sincere friend to patient and student alike. We who are about to embark on a life-long course in the field of medicine would do well to emulate the many fine qualities of this man. 7 IN MEMORIAM HUGO ROESLER, M.D., F. A. C. P. Dr. Hugo Roesler died suddenly on April 26, 1961, at the age of sixty-two. Thus ended almost thirty years of fruitful association with Temple University Medical Center as radiologist, cardiologist, and associate professor of medicine. He left an indelible imprint as a preceptor, scholar, philosopher, physician, investigator, and a friend of the finest sort - a versatile combination unfortunately rare in the medical profession today. Because of his remarkable multi-faceted character one can view Dr. Roesler from many aspects. Students and residents will remember him as a teacher of first rank. Not the classroom lecturer in the usual sense, his forte was teaching in the preceptor manner. His love of philosophy paralleled his medical interests. A philosopher in his own right, “bon mots” and keen aphorisms were a high part of his conversation. Although Dr. Roesler was a perfectionist in his work and an investigator of the highest integrity, he frequently evinced a healthy skepticism in regard to many medical matters that was a delight and a stimulus to those who worked with him. A pioneer in x-ray studies of the cardio-vascular system and in electrocardiography, he was the author of many articles and three books: An Atlas of Congenital Heart Disease, Clinical Roentgenology of the Cardio-eascular System, and An Atlas of Electrocardiography (with Dr. William Dressier). His reputation far exceeded the bounds of Philadelphia: it was of international stature. . Dr. Roesler was skilled in the art of medicine at the bedside. A devotee of the comprehensive approach, he never separated the | erson from the disease. Warmth, understanding, compassion and wise counsel were as much a part of his armamentarium as the stethoscope, flouroscope, and electrocardiograph. A colorful ligure, talented pi vsician. and benign cynic, Hugo Roesler was an unforgettable person. A gentleman in the best sense of the word, he never lost the gracious continental manner of his background. Dr. Roesler was truly a figure against the sky. 8 IN MEMORIAM WILLIAM A. STEEL M.D.. F.A.C.S. Dr. William A. Steel, Emeritus Professor of Surgery died at his home on December 31, 1961, at the age of 88. “Pappy Steel, as he was affectionately known throughout the Temple family, received his B.S. and M I), degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, the latter in 1899. After an internship at Episcopal Hospital, he came to the Samaritan Hospital, with Dr. W. Wayne Babcock, in the year 1903. Together they built a brilliant department of surge in affiliated with the embryonic medical school of Temple University. Both he and Dr. Babcock became Professors Emeritus in 1944. Dr. Steel, who did pioneer work irr blood vessel repair, especially aneurysms, was a founder of the American College of Surgeons in 1913, and a pioneer member of the American Association of Anesthesiologists soon thereafter. He published numerous articles and contributed to Babcock's Principals and Practice of Surgery. He became a Diplomate of the American Board of Surgery in 1937. A full-length portrait of Dr. Steel, painted by Frank B. A. Linton, and presented by the medical classes of 1938 and 1939, hangs in the Medical School Auditorium. Following his retirement from Temple. Dr. Steel maintained his Philadelphia office at 3300 North Broad Street and also served as Chief Surgeon at St. Mary’s Hospital. In addition, he was Chief of Staff at the Surf Hospital in Sea Isle City, N. J. and Consultant to the Cape May County X. J. Board of Health. Dr Steel is survived bv his son and his nephews. Dr. Howard H. Steel, of the Orthopedic staff of Temple and Dr. Paul H. Steel, a surgeon in Atlantic City. N. J. 9 wfr -1 A TRIBUTE TO D '.AS EMERITUS WILLIAM A LARK IS SOS The year 1929 marked the beginning of an era of rapid growth for the Temple University Medical Center, for it was in 1929 that Dr. William N. Parkinson became dean of the school of medicine. During that year, the Smaritan Hospital was renamed Temple University Hospital, ground was broken for what is now the medical school building, and the school received a Grade A” rating from the American Medical Association’s Council on Medical Education. A period of remarkable progress ensued, culminated in November 1954 with the dedication of the new hospital pav ilion. This edilicc appropriate!) bears the name of William N. Parkinson, the individual most responsible for the development of the Temple Medical Outer as a national institution, in 1959. aftei thirty ve.us ol smite. ‘Paikv was named Dean K.meiitus. William Nimon Parkinson was l� om in Philadelphia on Septemhei 17. lfMlfi He attended the Philadelphia public schools and received his Bachelor of Science degree from Villanova College. In 1911, he was graduated with honors from the Temple University School of Medicine. After serving his internship at the Montgomery General Hospital in Norristown, the young doctor established a medical practice in Philadelphia. For five years he served as assistant surgeon to the Joseph Price Memorial Hospital and also as quizmaster in surgical anatomy at his alma mater. His teaching career was interrupted by World War 1 when Dr. Parkinson Joined the Twenty-eighth Division. Pennsylvania National Guard (“The Iron Division”). served in France, and rose to the rank of Major in the Army Medical Corps. Following Military service. Dr. Parkinson re-entered private practice and in 1921 was appointed Associate Dean of Temple Medical School. Vitally interested in medical cdu-t alion. the new executive energetically stimulated the progress of his alma mater. After three years as as- 10 sociatc dean, Dr. Parkinson went abroad to further his knowledge of surgery. He visited leading clinics and hospitals in London. Edinburgh, Paris and Vienna. Returning to the United States, he became Chief Surgeon of the East Coast Hospital in St. Augustine, Florida. Dr. Parkinson was away from his alma matrr for only a short time, however, for in 1929. he returned to Temple as Medical Director of the Temple University Hospital. Within months he was appointed the fourth dean of the medical school. As Dean. Dr. Parkinson was a dynamic force behind the growth of the medical stafT, facilities, and reputation of Temple University. As a medical doctor, William Parkinson has dedicated himself to the preservation and wellbeing of humanity and the growth of the medical profession. “a profession honoied above all others. As a teacher, he has strived unceasingly to advance the standards of medical education and to provide skilled and sensitive physicians, worths of the trust and esteem of their patients. Temple Medical Center has been privileged to have so dynamic a leader as Dean Parkinson He has been honored on numerous occasions with degrees, citations and memberships in professional associations, he was the first person to receive the Medical Alumni Prize of Temple University — a tribute for his contributions to the prestige and advancement of the School of Medicine. The Temple Medical Center stands today as a fine monument to Dr. Parkinson's career and years of devotion President Millard Glad-felter of Temple University, wrote in 1961: “The greatness which the future holds for Temple University School of Medicine will be constructed upon the carefullv-laid foundation which Dr. Parkinson has been so instrumental in building.

BURNEY. M.D. Vice-President of Health Sciences Temple University is pleased to welcome Dr. Leroy E. Burney as Vice-President of Health Sciences. Former Surgeon-General of the United States Public Health Service, Dr. Burney is renowned for his activities in the field of public health. As Surgeon-General from 1956-1961, he brought direction to public health matters throughout the world. He was responsible, for example, for the organization of various medical units into an effective defense against the ‘Asian’ influenza epidemic of 1957. He was Chief Delegate and Chairman of the U.S. Delegation to the Tenth World Health Assembly in Geneva, and to the Eighth Session of the Regional Committee for the Western Pacific of the World Health Organization. Dr. Burney is a graduate of Butler College and the Indiana University School of Medicine. He served his internship at the Public Health Service Hospital in Chicago and received his Master’s Degree in Public Health in 1932, following a year’s study as a Rockefeller Fellow at Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health. As a young physician, Dr. Burney worked in the field of venereal disease control and helped to develop the mobile health clinic which has become a standard health measure in our .Southern States. He was called to Washington. D.C. during World War II to aid in the War Shipping Administration’s fight against venereal disease. After an assignment as District Health Director in New' Orleans. Dr. Bumfey was appointed State Health Officer of Indiana and, in 1953, was named Deputy Chief of the Public Health Service, Bureau of State Services. Three years later, President Eisenhower appointed him Surgeon-General of the Public Health Service with the rank of Rear Admiral. Numerous honors have come to Dr. Burney for his distinguished service, including a personal presidential commendation and, more recently, election to the newly created position of Speaker of the Governing Council of the American Public Health Association. Dr. Burney’s activities as Vice-President of Health Sciences at Temple University emphasize his concern for problems confronting professional education today and tomorrow. 14 ROBERT M. BUCHER, M.D. Dean of the Medical School In three years time Dean Robert M. Bucher has successfully established his position as an astute and imaginative leader in the management of medical affairs. He not only has maintained the high calibre of training for which Temple University School of Medicine is known, but has generated long range building programs to enlarge the growing spectrum of the medical center’s influence. The development of the present medical community into a complex and unified center of medical education, research, and practice has just begun with the construction of the research building and the women’s residence hall. Under Dr. Bucher’s guidance this growth of Temple will be maintained and insured. Dean Bucher graduated in medicine from Temple in 1944. After his internship training in this hospital was finished, he served a tour of duty in the U.S. Army-Medical Corps. Dr. Bucher returned to Temple to complete his surgical residency-training. His excellence as a surgeon has led to appointment as Associate Professor of Surgery. The leadership abilities which he demonstrated culminated in his appointment as Assistant Dean in 1957. With the retirement of Dr. William N. Parkinson in 1959, Dr. Bucher was appointed Dean oF the medical school. As Dean, Dr. Bucher is critically aware of many problems facing the students of medicine. More important, he realizes that his burden will multiply with the years. As a leader in the medical community, he will proceed to advocate continued reappraisal of both study and the practice of medicine, so that this medical center will remain a dynamic leader in the field of medical education. 15 ARTHUR D. NELSON. M.D. Assistant Dean of the Medical School On July 1, 1961, Temple University School of Medicine was privileged to welcome one of its formei students, Dr. Arthur D. Nelson, as assistant Dean. His duties are many: among them are medical school admissions, student affairs, plant construction and maintenance, health maintenance at the medical center, as well as teaching environmental health for the Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine. It requires a man of unusual talents and exceptional training to be intimately involved in these many-faceted activities so necessary to the proper working of the medical school. Dr. Nelson’s credentials fill the bill. In 1944 he received a B.S. in military engineering from the United States Academy at West Point. Three years of troop duty and three more as an engineering officer in Honduras followed. In 1950 he received an M.S. degree in civil engineering from Harvard University and subsequently taught physics and chemistry at West Point for three years. Having attained the rank of major, our future physician enrolled at Temple Medical School in 1953. From this time on, medicine became a full-time job. Following graduation in 1957, he spent one year as an intern and another as chief resident physician at the Montgomery Hospital in Norristown, Pennsylvania, At present, Dr. Nelson and his wife. Dr. Sarah Burton Nelson, maintain a general practice near their home in Center Square. Whitpan Township, Pennsylvania. 16 BERT R. BOONE, M.D Assistant Dean for Research The return of l)r. Bert R. Boone to the medical center as ssistant Dean for Research documents Temple’s expansion in this field. Research has been the chief interest of Dr. Boone throughout his thirty year career in the U.S. Public Health Service. His training in internal medicine, cardiology, and instrument research led to research activities on heart sounds in the early forties. From 1944 to 1948 Dr. Boone was active in cardiovascular physiology and roentgenology research at Temple University Medical Center. This research work led to the development of electrokymography, a procedure in which Temple was a pioneer. Dr. Boone began his Public Health Service career in 1931 as an intern at the U.S. Marine Hospital, New Orleans, after receiving his M.D. degree from the University of Michigan School of Medicine. After serving clinical assignments at the Charity Hospital, New Orleans, and the Staten Island Marine Hospital, he was appointed, in 1940, County Health Officer for Clay and Bradford Counties, Florida. Two years later he became Chief Medical Officer of the U.S. Coast Guard. Following his research stint at Temple University, he became Chief of the Laboratory of Technical Development of the National Institute of Health. In 1956. Dr. Boone was commissioned Medical Director of the Research Fellowship Unit, Grants and Training Branch, National Heart Institute. On June 30, 1961, Dr. Boone retired from this position to accept his present appointment as Assistant Dean for Research. This broad and distinguished record marks Dr. Boone as an outstanding leader in the field of medical research. As Assistant Dean, he will be concerned with research coordination and development. His primary task will be to coordinate the numerous research projects under way at Temple so that an efficient and comprehensive program will be formulated. 17 Ginny told me I had to raise the tuition.

SENIORS HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1962 JOHN CLARK Van PELT HISTORIAN “The time hai come,” the Walrus said, “To talk of many things: Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, Of cabbages and kings; And why the sea is boiling hot. And whether pigs hare wings.” —Lewis Carroll On the morning of 6 September 1958, the time had indeed come for 135 would-be physicians, entering their Freshman year at Temple University School of Medicine, to talk of many things — things as unrelated as cabbages and kings, as improbable as flying pigs, as foreign as boiling seas — homely things, mysterious things, comic things, tragic things. Medicine is an old and noble profession, and is, as such, endowed, for better or for worse, with many old and noble traditions. Not the least of these, although there are more admirable examples, is that the study and comprehension of this science is reputed by the laity to be almost impossible. It is safe to say that the average medical student, fresh out of college, arrives for his first class equipped with a vague conglomeration of opinions, resolves, half-truths and misinformation unparalleled by the novitiates of any other profession. Our class was no different from any other in this respect. A battery of department heads were on hand to welcome us briefly, presided over by the ubiquitous, mysterious and acerb personage of ‘Doctor Temple’ himself, ‘Parky,’ a red-faced, white-haired seer supported by the lecturn in Erny Amphitheatre. To most of us, the parading Olympians were physician-ideals, somewhat god-like characters of enormous attainment and competence. The entering Freshman is a complex of idealism and fear: fear of the unknown and fear of personal inadequacy Whether Dr. X could speak publicly or not. or whether he was known outside North Philadelphia was of no importance; for the moment he was obviously the very best in his field. Dr. Sclye would be proud of most Freshmen on Day One — the old adrenal squeeze being in full swing. Witness the fact that when ‘Daddy' Huber finished his welcome by saying he would meet us in fifteen minutes on the sixth floor of the Medical School, a good third of the class ran up the six floors rather than wait for the elevators! {Something very few would ever do again except when the cantankerous lifts, like Calvin Coolidge, did not choose to run.) The eager students from Temple undergraduate school were prepared with books and short white jackets, as were the few ‘faculty brats’ among us, but the rest — a majority of the class — were lost somewhere along the line. ‘Daddy’ Huber, Temple’s answer to Lord Calvert, did much to pick up the loose ends and establish order amid chaos. His was, and is, the unpleasant task of introducing the new physician to his new and exacting profession; as Head of the Anatomy Department, he is the first to get his clutches on the students. This he did in such a cordial, painstaking manner, with such contagious pleasantness and good will, that in a few days most adrenals were percolating back at near-normal levels. Later in the semester, this worthy gentleman’s penchant for pendantry and compulsion for repetitious detail would become tiresome to most, but on Day One he was beyond reproach, and performed his task with obvious practice and dispatch. So it was through the major adjustments of the first semester, including the emotional trauma of human dissection ‘The Probe' was always there to point the way. It wasn’t until alter such introductions had become old hat that his soft-sell approach became tedious. The Anatomy Department did not live by ‘Daddy' Huber alone, however. There was Noble Bates, Temple’s infernal talking machine, who delivered his shortest lecture of the year on the first day, a half-hour, illustrated dissertation on how not to cross Broad Street; ‘Hoot’ Walker, a lanky red-haired Texan who seemed always on the verge of falling asleep; Norman Ricck, an angry young neuroanatomist with no apparent cause; Bob Trover, a friendly and competent person who needed to go on a diet, and did — becoming a mere embryo of his former self; Jack Hartman, an eminently qualified physician who could make the dullest subject captivating; and an import from Mysore. India, Dr. Rajagopal, an authority on fetal elephants who always looked as if he were stifling an enormous belch. These were our mentors for the initial five months, and the association was basically pleasant, often humorous, and generally informative Concomittant with Anatomy, a few one-hour-a-week classes met on such subjects as First-Aid, Public Health, and Psychiatry. The best of these courses was the History of Medicine with Fred Rogers, for it brought the light of humanism into dreary scientific halls. Although a professional institution, and therefore theoretically above such activities, our Medical School has chapters of several national medical fraternities on the ‘Campus.’ (‘Campus’ belongs in quotes at Temple, where alma mater resides in a collection of Victorian row-houses nestled around the Medical Center, a jungle-clearing valiantly resisting reclamation by the local creeping vegetation of social necrosis). Rushing began the first night with a tour of the various houses, an endless blur of faces, hundreds of handshakes. For the next two weeks, those of us who were interested were wined, dined and courted by the fraternities; which was fun because it presented free meals and beer, and a chance to sublimate the accumulated anxieties of the day with men who had filled our shoes before us. As far as making an intelligent choice of a fraternity is concerned, it couldn't be done, because most of us didn't know each other, let alone the several hundred eager upper-classmen. But somehow the choice was made, and in passing, most of the participants felt that fraternities served a useful function at Temple — a social outlet for many, a home away from home for a few. and a place where companionship and escape from the common grind could be found. The fraternities are probably doomed in the not-too-distant future, as the Center moves to construct resident dormitories for its students. Certainly the delapidated relics they now occupy soon will go. either by sheer decay or by shun clearance, whichever comes first. With them will pass from the Temple scene an institution much to be mourned by those who knew it. Gradually, life took on form, substance and habit and with this passed much of the irrational fear of the unknown. But for a couple of confused souls who dropped out after a few days, we settled into a tontine grind of lectures and dissection, study and weekend dissipation. Those of us not already encumbered by ‘obligations’ elsewhere soon discovered the Nursing School and the various local bistros; all of which, (by way of a backhanded invitation I. we had been cautioned to avoid by Parky.’ Everyone soon discovered that unless you wanted to engage in a bull session for an hour or so. you didn't ask Dr. Bates any questions. It is said of Noble that if you asked him the time of day he would spend an hour explaining how a watch functions. Despite amusing remarks made about this professor's ebullience, there is no doubt that he has an amazing fund of knowledge at his fingertips, with powers of recall and association which arc truly incredible. (He also has a fine eye for art in photography). When a coffee break was needed, you took the stairs to the fifth floor and then the elevator, as this eliminated walking past ‘Daddy’ Huber’s office, and coffee breaks were not advisable at the College Inn at three o’clock, as The Probe’ came in then for his afternoon coke. Dr. Stauffer's X-Ray lectures were for sleeping, and several of us became the world’s champions at this luxury'. Freshmen could lx identified anywhere in the building by their characteristic odor, and the Anatomy Lab was a great place to petrify your date. Guest lectures on Wednesday afternoons were compulsory for Freshmen, both attendance and attention, until the first Victor Robinson lecture when even Dean Bucher went to sleep in the front row. after which attendance 21 lagged. If you left your books in the hall, Mrs. Burns would hide them in her office; if ‘Parky’ met you on the elevator and told you that you had flunked the last regional examination, you took it with a grain of salt: if working late in the Anatomy Lab. you could stand on the sixth floor balcony and watch the student nurses going to bed on Carlisle Street. Little things like these made life more endurable. And so the fall progressed, from region to region, test to test, laugh to laugh, weekend to weekend, in a routine that varied only as the official schedule issued from the Anatomy office. Vet there were many diversions, some of them sordid, many of them ‘gross’ as only Medical Students can enjoy. There was the morning one cadaver, a particularly frail little lady, was found with a full length cast on one arm; and the time Dr. Huber gently extracted one of our more extroverted classmates from the top of his cadaver, upon whose chest he had firmly placed his knee for better leverage while sawing through a clavicle. Since this maneuver was in no way called for in the dissection, the student and his two partners remained in stunned silence while the facts of subclavian anatomy were spelled out in no uncertain terms for a full fifteen minutes. Men who habitually occupied the back of the room during lectures had to lx prepared to show I)r. Rajagopa! how to operate the slide projector, each day anew. Certain cadavers came to be friends, where the structure in question could always be found, whereas others were avoided like the plague. The cadavers and the dissections came to express the personalities of the workers, each table a bit different from the others. Of such is life, the bitter with the sweet, the rich with the poor, the good with the bad, and of such is a physician moulded. One morning after Christmas, as we were peering at brains in the Anatomy Lab, a tall, boney individual in a long white coat and graying hair loped into the lab, squinted through his thick rimless glasses, and in a Texas drawl demanded our attention. He was Dr. Hamilton, Chief of Biochemistry, he said, and he wanted us all to know that the honeymoon was over and Medical School was about to begin in earnest. This came as a surprise to many of us, who thought it had begun in September. Of course, he was intimating that Anatomy was a breeze compared to Biochemistry, and we had better be prepared to do some real work. He was both right and wrong; he was wrong about when Medical School had started. In Anatomy wc felt much closer to the practice of Medicine than wc would in chemistry, receiving actual tastes of clinical medicine through the efforts of such as the Radiology department and Sherm Gilpin and Fred Murtagh’s neurologic presentations Nocturnal visits to the Accident Dispensary had further augmented these glimpses of our eventual direction. One cannot fully empathize with a test tube; when asked to learn the chemical structure of the chief constituent of the milk of the duckbilled platv- 22 r i or - I L o Jj s : I’ (Jj CM. d J yCy . A Ji L h-ird VcVWf ury yjQ'ftQ, J113(sn pus, one’s hackles rise: when the geographical and chemical gyrations of the Haldane family, father and son. have been enumerated for the twentieth time by a white rat. one tends to fall asleep: when the semi-weekly examination purportedly testing one's knowledge of Biochemistry is returned with credit removed for spelling and punctuation errors, one tends to get discouraged: and after one has carefully collected and contributed to an enormous malodorous urine pool, and then spent the rest of the day boiling the StufT in unending quest for elusive molecules. one begins to wonder just where he is headed, and what all this mess has to do with Medicine. ‘Bones’ was right. Biochemistry was harder than Anatomy but not because it had to be. The fact of the matter is that the approach l the two departments toward the same problems was vastly different. ‘Daddy Huber said. Here is the material: we are here to help you assimilate and understand it.. while ‘Bones' said, “Here is the material; parrot every de- 23 tail back to me in two weeks or else. The Biochemistry lecturers, with the exception of Bob Baldridge and Joe Boutwell, were disappointing. For picayune adherence to nonessential detail coupled with uncanny ability to frustrate, irritate and bore, the Biochemistry Department at Temple has no peer in this author’s ken. Fortunately, ‘Bones’ shared equal time in the schedule with ‘Oppy.’ Physiology has never been known as a ‘snap’ course, but Dr. Oppenheimer and his staff, in addition to knowing a great deal about their respective fields, were also human beings who could converse, laugh, make jokes, and put their lecture points across in an interesting way. The laboratory was well run; the experiments interesting, by and large. Many a weary freshman in the second semester would cheerfully have forgotten Biochemistry altogether and concentrated on Physiology, but the exigencies of the situation were such that the reverse often obtained. Everyone feared 'Oppy,’ who had a reputation for towering rage and a low boiling point, but these qualities were practically never seen by our class, and the few times they were expressed it was not the student that irritated him. Actually, ‘Oppy’s friendliness and obvious competence won our enthusiastic respect by the end of the semester. It was obvious that ‘Bones’ and ‘Oppy’ begrudged one another the time each was allotted with the students; consequently each attempted to load us with enough material to preclude the possibility of study- ing anything else. This made life hectic, since there really weren’t enough hours in the day or night to do justice to either course. At times we felt as if we were standing at the bottom of a deep pit while two enormous intellectual manure spreaders dumped a never-ending stream, our job being to shovel the stuff out as it accumulated. But somehow winter became spring, and spring became June, and even North Philadelphia wasn’t so unattractive when the exams were over and it was summer. Most of us passed, more or less gloriously. Some faces, including those of a few class officers, were never to be seen again; others spent a busy summer preparing for re-examination in the Fall. But for most of us a year of hard work was over and behind us; and yet when we stopped to consider what we really knew about Medicine and its practice, it was obvious that the fun had just begun. Most were acutely aware of the fact that after four years of college and one of Medical School, wc really didn’t know much of anything that was useful to anyone. We could take solace from Thomas Huxley who said, ‘‘If a little knowledge is danger- 24 ous, where is the man who has so much as to be out of clanger?” SOPHOMORE YEAR And t!u master word is WORK. William Osier The Sophomore year began early on Tuesday after Labor Day — in the middle of a heat wave. Many of us had come back a few days early, bidding fond farewell to Somers Point and other vacation spots, to assist in the cleaning and refurbishing of the decaying fraternities, which is traditionally the Sophomore’s lot. With the help of continuous infusions of cold beer, the job was soon done, and the houses ready to attract a new group of Freshmen. First semester Sophomore year is a time of Pathology and Microbiology. These two courses together at the same time provide a prodigious amount of material to be covered, more even than second semester Freshmen year. One wonders how the student QF ' AMtMd ACIPS r can accomplish so much in a short time; this very question was in the back of our minds the day classes started and for some time thereafter. The answer became obvious after ‘awhile — granted that the amount of material was excessive, the situation differed from the preceding semester in that both courses were interesting, well taught, and of obvious importance to the practice of medicine. This combination made the semester considerably easier than we had anticipated, and in retrospect, it was generally the best semester during the four years. Everyone worked hard, very hard, because they had to. and especially because they wanted to. This is not to imply that it was all pure pleasure, because it wasn't, but all agreed that the long hours and hard work were well worth the return. Pathology began with a Bang, by Ernest Aegerter giving a series of bold lectures on the general principles of his discipline. This austere and somewhat distant department head, known behind his back as either “the Chief’ or “the Acg,” is one of the truly remarkable personalities on the Temple staff. He is able to create an impression of such Olympian grandeur, of such complete self-possession at all times, of an intellect greater than the sum of that of his paltry students, and is so adept at dissolving egos with the quiet barbed comment, that all regarded him with a respect approaching reverence. The man is a brilli- 25 (SHletuAt' Toil 9u e ) a rcASe . c, ea«W pArV fUce ; £. If V.II ictorl«� u. iuj. A� � V« SMu««. « JwX 4U«. rcA «w. i a coiretl 4kt . U 4k .

He is also a gifted teacher and lecturer; the Aeg’ pacing the podium for an hour without a note in his hand delivering an orderly, coherent lecture on a difficult subject was an experience few will forget. ‘Gus Peale, co-chief of the department, coidd do the same thing, almost as if the material was being read from a book. Where the ‘Aeg’ is austere and distant, ‘Gus’ is a warm and friendly person, who could always be relied upon to hand out a few useful tidbits on Tuesday before the Wednesday test, such as who was giving what percentage of the questions and how ambiguous the ‘Chiefs’ page would be. (The ‘Aeg’ had an annoying habit of asking questions on material which wouldn’t be covered for another month, and asking them in such a way that three out of four answers always appeared correct.) ‘Gus’ was as deaf as a post but this did not prevent him from giving his usual fine scries of lectures. Other members of this department were impressive, too - -Harvey Watts, who could do a complete autopsy while delivering a comprehensive lecture on the particular pathologic process exhibited by the patient without breaking stride once; Elizabeth Lautsch, a frantic female whose obvious genuine interest in the student and in her teaching both at lecture and in gross pathology laboratory, impressed us all; Walt Levy, one of the nicest gentlemen a person could meet, who conducted the micropathology in a fashion which made even that potentially tedious subject interesting; James Arey, the fascinating Chief of Pathology from St. Christopher’s Hospital; Tas-soni, Graham, Campbell, Fite, Brody, Smith - each excellent in his own way. Pathology at Temple is a great and stimulating experience, and once a routine had been established and the initial trauma of an autopsy sustained — not at all impossible to cope with so long as one i erscvercd. Side by side with Pathology ran Microbiology, again in usually friendly competition for the students’ time. This department was not as stimulating perhaps as the Pathology group, but did a fine job in its own right. There were times such as when a Path test on Wednesday was followed by a Micro test on Saturday. that we wished Earle Spaulding and his department would evaporate, but by and large, the microbiological experience was enjoyable. The lectures varied from extraordinarily good to extraordinarily bad, with Earle himself occupying both ends and the middle of this range at different times.

Ken Schrcck was consistently good, despite his monotone delivery, and Ted Anderson was competent. Sam Eisenberg always gave a good talk, but trying to remember the names and life cycles of all those parasites drove us nearly crazy. The lab was tedious at times, quite malodorous at others, but generally informative. It was a worth- while experience writing the required paper, if only to see how bad some medical writing can be, though sitting in the Library pecking away at the project while most of the country was enjoying Christmas holidays was a tiresome situation. Finally, February was at hand, the exams were taken, and it was all over but the shouting. Again, some few there were who didn’t make it, and some there were who had to fight the good fight again through the summer months. But everyone felt relieved and pleased on that Saturday in February, with the ‘AegY praise of our class still fresh in our ears and the prospect of a good blow -out in store that evening at the Alden Park Manor. We didn’t have time for socializing very often, but when we did, we went at it in a vigorous manner to make up for lost time. Actually, the semester past had been anything but lost time; in days to come we would look back wistfully to Sophomore first semester as the educational high point in our four years. Having weathered that semester, we felt we knew all there was to know about Medicine, and we engaged in endless trading of differential diagnosis with the Junior and Senior students. Ignorance is bliss! To the Sophomore, every problem in medicine appears cither black or wfhite; the truth of the matter being that the usual situation is varying shades of gray. This we had still to learn as clinical clerks. Second semester Sophomore year was a time of Pharmacology and Hematology, plus about forty other short introductory lecture scries spanning the major divisions of clinical medicine. There weren’t really forty, but at times it scented that way. The semester was reputed to be a relaxing one by those who had gone before, but we soon learned that if you were conscientious about all the courses offered, the 27 semester could be as taxing as any other. Most of us weren’t strictly conscientious about it, however, because the clinical subjects did not have much meaning for us as yet. Pharmacology we could understand, because there was a certain amount of material to cover, plus a lab. and this setup was what we were used to. Hematology was roughly the same, although more clinically oriented. But even though some of the professors in the clinical fields gave excellent lectures, such as ‘Sugar Charlie’ Shuman and Bert Channick in Medicine, it all held little significance for us because we had not had sufficient patient contact to make it meaningful. Anatomy review with ‘Daddy’ Huber was uninspiring, and George Mark in Physical Diagnosis was no ball of fire. Mike Free made a reasonably good thing out of potentially dull Biostatistics, while Pediatrics blew hot and cold, mostly cold. Obstetrics we found came strictly from the textbook. Surgery was uniformly unimpressive, with the lone exception of Vince Lauby, who lectured creditably. Medicine was generally excellent, with the sole exception of George Farrar who made a real mess of Nutrition in the short time alloted him. Bob Cohen was uniformly superb. Psychiatry was intriguing. The one big time-consumer, however, was Pharmacology, which rates as one of the best of the basic sciences at Temple. The subject matter is hardly captivating, but the department personnel are well-qualified and make a sincere effort to teach. Roger Scvv, a very capable department head, never gave a bad lecture, and Charlie Papacostas bent over backwards for the student, a genuinely nice person who spoke well. Most of the rest of the department was at least tolerable, and the labs were well run and informative. George Mayo’s sessions on how to write prescriptions and MFt hand cream were the only black marks on the slate. Hematology lacked spark as a department, and the nationally-known department chief at that time, Chris Zaragonetis, was a poor speaker. Jim Day could lecture reasonably well, and Ros Joseph tolerably so, but there it ended. I dwell so long on jjerson-alities to make just one point: the second semester was a time when we all became stenographers and grew callouses on our bottoms (except for the student who brought a cushion every day), sitting for as long as seven or eight hours a day taking notes. This can be far more wearing than physical exercise, moreover, due to the incredible tedium involved. That second semester provided a few new wrinkles in an otherwise routine slate. The Wednesday and Saturday visits to various hospitals around the city for practical physical diagnosis provided an opportunity for many of us to play the doctor role, and little black bags began to appear in which the gifts from Eli Lilly Co. could be heard rattling around hollowly. There was a clever “syndicate” of students who regularly gathered around a duplicating machine to catch up on various lectures they had cut. Having reached this “advanced” stage in our medical education. many of us sought night work as junior interns or laboratory technicians to bolster sagging treasuries (In disobedience of Dean’s Office pronouncements on the subject). It really was impossible for 28 some of us not to work, especially the married men with children, and many were acutely aware of still being parental parasites after many years of costly education. This is another of Medicine’s less noble traditions — medical students must always be a jxmwrious and starving race. Some who had no financial worries sought employment to gain additional experience, although the value of the experience •gained was often questionable. Looking back on that time, the memories ate by-and-large agreeable, and the confusion which many felt then can be viewed in the proper perspective as transition from the science of the first three semesters to the social ‘art' of dealing with human beings as patients, which never fit one hundred percent into pure science structures. June arrived and the fourteen exams were completed as before, followed by two weeks of frantic conning of rfotes before the first section of the National Boards, a grueling two days of multiple guesswork. It had been a memorable year in many respects, both for us and for Temple. Two new' buildings were in the wind and Dr. Bucher had completed his first year as dean — successor to ‘Parky . The latter was still seen prowling around as was his wont, and the power of the throne seemed only to have moved to the third floor of the Medical School. ‘Parky’ still accused people of scholastic ineptitude on the elevators, but Dr. Bucher was now Dean. As this is written, ‘Parky’ is still very much a part of Temple, and he will never be forgotten. As time passes, the great wealth of fact and myth which surrounds this worthy gentleman will grow to the stature of a modern medical Odyssey, as something is added with each recounting. His contributions to Temple Medical School can never be measured; we are privileged as a class to have known him. JUNIOR YEAR In clinical battles, tlu physician can have several theories shot out from under him. — Thomas Durant, M.D. Junior year began in the usual fashion: early in September in the middle of a heat wave. With the basic sciences behind us. this was to be the first of our clinical years, a prospect which looked very good to us. No more labs, fewer lecture hours, patient contact — this was going to be Medicine. Armed with shiny new black bags filled with shiny new diagnostic gadgets, stethoscopes conspicuously dangling from pockets. safety pins affixed to lapels in an obvious locale, and percussion hammers tucked into belt loops for neurologic testing, we were prepared to set the medical world on fire with our diagnostic acumen. This was also a schizophrenic year, with the class divided into thirds alphabetically (which in turn were divided alphabetically into several groups) assigned to Philadelphia General. Episcopal and Albert Einstein. in that order. Only at lecture time, from 3:20 to 3:30 p.m. each day. was the whole class together. It didn't take manv days on affiliation as Junioi Clerks to realize that the only thing we were setting 29 afire was the gasoline consumed in getting to the various hospitals and the tobacco burned at numerous conferences. The Junior student is little more than a cipher in any hospital, at least at first, because he knows nothing except academic medicine and not an awful lot of that; he just doesn't know enough to he useful. It took a week or more just to find the men's room in the assigned hospital! So it was a year of observing, of “watch me , of retractor-jockeying, dominated by a sensation of being a fifth wheel, for the most part. It couldn't really be otherwise, for the reasons presented, but it was not what we had envisioned. As in passing from infancy to childhood. the young physician must learn to crawl before he can stand, and stand before he can walk. This realization was painful, and many of us never fully accepted it. The quality of the training and experience which we received at the three different hospitals varied greatly. In Medicine. PGM was fair. Episcopal with Jack Zatuchni was superb, and Einstein was dismal. In Surgery, PGII was fair. Episcopal excellent, and Einstein sad. In Pediatrics, PGII was good. Episcopal (at Abington) bad, and Einstein excellent. We all took T.B. and Xurology at PGII; these services were generally excellent. OB at Temple for the Episcopal and Einstein sections was excellent for the most part, while OB at PGM was poor. These are all value judgments, given without qualification, but they reflect the consensus of opinion of those who labored at these establishments. Suffice it to sav that the experience varied greatly from hospital to hospital, and the general excellence of the training at the Episcopal Hospital was in large measure due to better general organization and staff coverage of the teaching program. reeL, u «.v Tr«i.T e eye y tie wT-fft-X-T, -Cr-. KA?.. btck T _� «« � l« T T , k 1 Junior year is also the period in which the bulk of didactic clinical material is presented to students Again there were vast differences in the success of the various departments in getting their points across. There were far too many different personalities to enumerate them all. but certain figures stood out above the others, such as Cohen, Learner and Ginsberg in Medicine. Lauby and Caswell in Surgery, Becham and Willson in Gynecology, High and Fleischer in Pediatrics. Scott in Neurosurgery, the entire Orthopedic staff. Lemon in EXT. Congei in G.U., Robbins in Radiotherapy. Gilpin in Xeurologs and Norris in Broncocsophagology. Others were uniformly unable to express themselves or put their ideas across in a meaningful fashion, such as Sha in Gastroenterology and Myers in ENT. Some lec- 30 lured to amaze and amuse, such as Minchart in Surgical Anatomy and McGavic in Opthalmology. In general. Junior year was relaxing and informative. though not as stimulating as many had anticipated. We all knew we should be reading assiduously rather than taking advantage of the low pressure but .... Instead there were circulated regularly tales of legendary card games, bacchanals and parties. At a time when we should have been working hardest, many were not. This was not just a case of poor judgment on our part, although a certain amount of this was to blame. To a large degree there was lack of stimulus, and after two years of hard labor, many were content to rejoin the human race foi a year, catch up on the progress of the Cold War and the latest diatribes of Fidel Castro. Medical students are human beings, after all. and the average man. given the chance to procrastinate, will do so. This is not to infer that we sat around and twiddled our thumbs, but relative to the preceding two years, junior year was a bit more casual. Had we really known what was in store for us as seniors, there might have been less relaxation. No man ever wetted day and then left it. as if thert would he brickv by chance and fortunt — Plutarch SENIOR YEAR There is one other reason for dressing well, namely that dot’s respect it, and will not attack you in good clothes, Ralph Waldo Emerson Senior year began one week after Junior year ended. It was a bit of a blow not to have the summer i• off. especially for those who counted on summer employment for income to tide them over the winter. Suddenly we were interns at our own hospital with all the duties and hours of interns anywhere, but without the personal responsibility or remuneration. We all felt inadequate, running around in white suits, looking like interns, acting like them, but still Senior medical students. Nurses who knew better, and patients who didn't, called us doctor, as did the telephone operators, which was ego-boosting, and we could pass unharmed through the thickets of the North Philadelphia Jungle, in hospital garb, at any time of day or night. These represented the chief fringe benefits of Temple's Senior year medical program. We soon discovered it was to be a working year, complete with night duty, overtime, early morning rounds, endless histories and physicals, all inter- mingled with the mechanics of I.V. administration. At first, before the novelty wore off. it was enjoyable, but it didn't take many weeks of little sleep and less teaching, time-off inevitably spent in bed catching up on sleep, little time for reading or study (some services were worse than others in this respect), before we wondered whether we were paying for an education or for the privilege of l eing exploited. As the months passed, more and more of us favored the latter supposition. Of course, we did get our laundry free ... It is impossible to have uniformity of teaching quality in an institution unless one man does it all. which is out of the question in a hospital the size of Temple. So again, experienced varied with what staff members were around on a service when you were on it. and which residents you were lucky enough to be associated with. For a university center the size of Temple, a relatively few competent staff physicians and surgeons do the vast majority of the work. A relatively small percentage of the staff were “full time”, so that a given physician could not always be found in the hospital. Since rounds were made on the private patients at the Attending's discretion, the student often got little more from a given patient workup than the pleasure of chatting with the patient. Certain of the staff, such as Fine-stone. Ginsberg, Lachman. Gibson. Scott. Levinskv. Murtagh, McMastcr, Shuman, Eiscnberg, and especially Durant, we learned to seek out whenevei possible l ecause these individuals took pains to teach and discuss cases while making rounds. The ward services were generally far more academic in orientation with a lighter patient load, enabling the student to do some reading along the way. But, in the main, the Senior medical student at Temple is kept too busy with practical matters to pursue adequately the academic side of medicine, with which he should also be concerned. No doubt we ll make excellent interns as we leave medical school because we have had so much practical experience: this could be rapidly learned in an internship whereas the chances for more academic pursuits will become fewer. Perhaps the establishment of specialty internships beginning in July of 1962 will help to alleviate this shortcoming of the program. At any rate, the life of the Senior at Temple became focused and riveted to the hospital, where the vast proportion of our time was spent. Sleeping rooms in the Brown Building became our home away from home, wives and families and fiancees were deserted, and even such essential matters as paying the bills every month were forgotten in the hectic grind. Close friends l ecame strangers, and contact with the outside world a rare occurrence. Night schedules al- 32 ways had to be reckoned with before planning an evening of bridge or a visit to the old homestead. Those few who still retained outside jobs literally lived in one hospital or another. At times the physical exhaustion became so intense that even the smallest task seemed insuperable, and we found ourselves on a treadmill to oblivion as brief day succeeded brief day. Tempers grew short, enthusiasm and idealism flagged, and the days rushed by at a heady pace. This was no place for the infirm or the faint of heart, but the practical experience itself was excellent. Temple students take second place to no one in this respect, and those who moan loudly about the dearth of academic medicine should pause for a moment to reflect upon their competence as clinicians which has come with the practice they received. Something gained, something lost. Temple turns out a well-rounded practicing physician and is proud of r 33 this fact, being somewhat short on the academic-research side of medicine. The year was broken up into three sections, eighteen weeks each of Medicine and Surgery, and a sixteen week section divided between Pediatrics and Obstetrics-Gynecology. The Medicine service was generally good, but very busy, especially for the six weeks on private service. This departmnt is probably the best of the major clinical departments at Temple. The six weeks on ward service provided the chief opportunity for the academic approach; the six weeks on Dr. Steiger’s out-patient clinic with its comprehensive approach was received with an enthusiasm which varied with the personality of the student. Some enjoyed it enormously as the closest thing to General Practice we would see, while others found the experience tedious. No one challenged the efficacy of Hill Steiger's program, however, nor his ability to put it across. Surgery was a chopped-up service, a few weeks here, a few weeks there, depending on the whims of the secretaries in the Surgery Department Office. The undisputed highlight was the four week stint on the Accident Dispensary, which, though physically exhausting, provided a wealth of worthwhile experience in all fields of medicine, especially a surfeit of traumatic surgry not unlike wartime. There is pathos and humor in abundance here. A month on the wards may or may not have been busy, and if in that time you joined the Proctology service for tw’o weeks, your index finger became educated, if a bit soiled. Two weeks on the private side varied with the staff man to whom you were assigned. If you landed with Gentleman George' Rosemond, you found out how to make rounds at a dead run plus what non-ivy leaguers think of the Ivy League while you jockeyed retractors. If your lot fell with John Blady, you learned how to take incredible personal abuse in the operating room while John did a ‘hemifacc-cctomy’ and rapped your knuckles with hemostats. And so on, each a bit different. Surgeons arc traditionally prima donnas in and out of the O R. or D.R. Pediatrics at Saint Christopher’s Hospital, Temple’s pediatric division, was a harrowing experience. Here we were treated as lower than Senior Students and certainly not as well as interns, as ‘Saint Waldo’, whimsical and vague, called the shots. Even the nurses barked at us regularly there, and the whole eight weeks, although a learning experience, was unnecessarily traumatic. O.B.-Gyne. was probably the busiest service of the year, and provided an excellent learning situation. In this Department, a well-recognized pecking-order had been established so that by the time the rancor and vituperation had filtered down to the student, he was likely to have quite a hard time. This seemed quite unnecessary most of the time, but what could seniors do but smile? The Residents had no one to peck but the interns, so there we were. left to peck the Juniors in the Delivery Room when we saw fit. This too was really quite unessential to the effective operation of the department. 34 And so, Senior Year ,one of struggle for survival, of anxiety compounded by the problem of obtaining an acceptable internship for the coming year, of anxiety associated with various papers to be written and end-of-service exams, all sandwiched in between hard labor. A difficult year for the student, who senses an overbearing feeling of exploitation and something of personal inadequacy. No man is perfect, and the structures of his hand too are not perfect. Temple’s program accomplishes much of what it is intended to. but has leaned a trifle too far from an academic bias toward the practical. Modification is on its way, fortunately, with rumblings about fulltime for all the stafF, the modern Research building, the relocation of the equally overworked student nurses into a fine new home. The center is obviously growing apace, and will continue to progress. If this personal conglomeration of reminesccnces brings a smile to a classmate's face ten years from now, it will have achieved its purpose; if in any way it contributes to the remarkable growth of our school, any labor involved will have been well spent. . . . any man's death diminishes me became am involved in mankind: and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

The first chapter of this National Honor Medical Society was founded in 1902 at the University of Illinois. Its Greek motto, meaning, Worthy to Serve the Suffering,” is abbreviated by the letters A.O.A. The fraternity’s purpose is the promotion of scholarship and research within the medical school. Membership is awarded to those members of the student body who have attained high scholarship and who have demonstrated promise of becoming leaders in their profession. Each year at Temple the society sponsors a lectureship in which an outstanding medical speaker addresses the medical school faculty and students. This year we were privileged to hear Dr. Charles S. Welch. Professor of Surgery at Albans Medical College, whose lecture was on The History of Portal-Caval Shunts. Following the lecture, a formal initiation was held for the society members. Fourteen seniors and seven juniors were admitted to membership in the past year. OFFICERS: President — Malvin Weinberger N ice President Charles A. Millei Secretary-Treasurer - John Franklin Huber.

The Babcock Surgical Society, organized on October 9, 1907. is one of the oldest undergraduate medical societies in the United States existing now as it was originally founded. In our comparatively young and growing medical school, the Babcock Society has become a tradition which is justly cherished. Perpetuating the name of Dr. W. Wayne Babcock, Emeritus Professor of Surgery, in whose honor it was founded, the Society’s aim is to promote intellectual discussions of new and current practices in surgery and related fields. At monthly meetings during the academic year, Senior members present papers on various topics. An open discussion period follows each presentation, during which the members and faculty guests exchange ideas on the particular subject. Membership is restricted to fifty students: twenty each from the Senior and Junior classes, and ten from the Sophomore class. New members are selected by the staff and society members on the basis of scholarship, personality, and expressed interest. At the conclusion of each year, a Banquet brings together all present members of the Babcock Society and its alumni. A prominent member of the medical profession is invited to participate as guest speaker. Last year, this speaker was Dr. Paul Neimer, Jr., Dean of the Graduate School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania. An award is also presented at this time to the Senior who has presented the “most outstanding” paper in the opinion of the members. This name is added to a plaque in the medical school and the senior student papers are bound in the library for future reference. 220 BABCOCK SURGICAL SOCIETY OFFICERS: Honorary President — W.

CHRISTIAN MEDICAL SOCIETY fhe Christian Medical Society is a national organization of members of the medical and dental professions. The purpose of the society is: to present a positive witness of God our Father, Jesus Christ our Saviour, and the Holy Spirit to our associates in the profession, and to gain the mutual strength and encouragement to be attained in meeting together for prayer, Bible study, and fellowship. Student chapters of the society are located in many of the nation's larger cities in connection with medical schools. The Temple chapter has been active this year in working in a medical clinic in one of the city's rescue missions, in bi-weekly meetings with physicians as guest speakers, in city-wide functions such as picnics, banquets, and a Fall Retreat with the student chapters from Philadelphia. Baltimore, and Washington. An added function this year has been the establishment of the Thomas M. Durant Lecture. EXECUTIVE COMM 1I TEE: Senior C. Ross Westley Junior- (Jerald R.

Spratt STUDENT AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION The Student American Medical Association is an organization of medical students, interns and residents seeking to advance the profession of medicine, to contribute to the cducatian of its members, and to prepare the future doctors to meet the social, moral, and ethical obligations of their profession Each year representatives of the member medical schools meet at the annual convention to debate the various legislative. educational, research, and economic problems facing the profession. These considerations of the association are thoughtful and representative of the future medical practitioners. SAMA has exerted its influence on legislative matters, promoted the formation ol a national loan fund, encouraged student research awards, and provided low-cost life and health insurance. At present. SAMA is striving to provide more adequate financial stipends for intern and resident physicians, to maintain intellectual freedom within the medical profession, and to develop programs of main- OFFICERS: taining the high level of present-day medical education. The Temple Chapter strives to apply these national ideals to projects of local interest. Aiming to acquaint the student bod with the present and future problems confronting medicine, the Chapter's activities include a freshman orientation week, the New Physician Award given to an outstanding senior, continuation of an active internship evaluation file, and an annual lectureship An Annual Medical Education Day to promote undergraduate student interest in medicine is projected this Spring. While the local chapter is constantly expanding its range of activities, the ultimate future of the organization, both locally and nationally, rests in the reversal of present student apathy regarding potent political, economic, and social forces now threatening to drastically alter the present high level of American medicine.

ALPHA EPSILON IOTA The Temple Chapter House at 1109-1411 West Ontario Street serves as a residence for its members and a common meeting place for women medical students to exchange ideas, enjoy friendships, and watch Ben Cases on television. This year our traditional open house was held September 23rd. The party got off to a twisting start with the music of the “Swinging Shepherds . . . Since the fall, a fine portrait of Agnes Barr Chase. M.D.. a 1909 Temple Medical Graduate, has graced the fraternity’s living room . . . Our Christmas Party was highlighted by the pledging of seven freshman and two junior transfer students. Alpha Epsilon Iota was established in 1890 with the purpose of “helping all women to a higher and broader life. The Temple University Chapter came into being on April 7, 1948, when 46 women were initiated by Dr. Sara I. Morris, with the assistance of Dr. Esther M. Greisheiiiicr. The stated purposes of the sororitv are “to promote friendship and sharing of mutual interests, to maintain a high order of scholarship and professional achievement, and to foster a spirit of moral and social responsibility.

Emory Burnett, VV Edward Chamberlain, A. Neil Lemon, and John A. Kolmcr, Beta Omicron Chapter of Alpha Kappa Kappa has provided an atmosphere of fellowship and mutual interest for its members. The national medical fraternity was founded on July 25, 1886. at Dartmouth Medical School in New Hampshire, and has since expanded to forty-three active chapters in twenty-six states and in Canada. AKK enjoyed a very successful year on all fronts. During the Fall term, our new Broad Street home was the scene of such outstanding events as month!) parties, especially the annual Christmas party. Highlights of the Spring term were the Thirtieth Anniversary Alumni Banquet and the annual shore picnic. Exam files, basketball team, new television set. and Myrtle, our capable and pleasant cook who has been with us for fourteen years, added to this bright picture.

The national offices which guide the fraternity’s mam chapters are still located in the city of Pittsburgh. Phi Beta’s national history actually began with the installation of a chapter at the University of Michigan on April 1. 1898. The first general convention was held at the University of Michigan in 1900. Interests of Phi Beta Pi were greatly advanced that same year through a merger with another national medical fraternity, thereby gaining eight new chapters. Locally, Beta Eta chapter of Phi Beta Pi was organized at Temple University School of Medicine in 1934. The occasional parties and other events provided many enjoyable moments throughout the academic year such as a buffet dinner preceding the Sophomore-Freshman Dance, the St. Patty’s Day party with its copious lavage of green beer, the Spring picnic in sunny, green areas little known to the conscientious medical students, and the farewell dinner in honor of our Senior colleagues. Athletically. Phi Beta Pi was undefeated in intramural basketball among the professional fraternities. SEATED R Hayashi. V Moloney. J Thistle, C. Cokewell. Reed. R Shissler. B McKinley. W.

This fraternity, oldest and largest both at Temple and internationally, is proud to encourage excellence and exuberance in all fields. Phi Chi won the Dean’s Cup in 1961 for the highest in-house point average, and also played host to some memorable parties throughout the year. The Christmas Party was particularly enjoyable, due chiefly to the efforts of the Wives' Club. The brotherhood is currently ninety-four strong, and their activities maintain the house’s high spirits. Last year's Junior Class President, Grant Mulholland, and the President of the Sophomore Class. Torn Perry, are both Phi Chis. as is Greg Lignelli. President of the Babcock Surgical Society. A four-legged ninety-fifth member of the canine variety attached himself to the house in the fall and goes by the name of Shannon in polite company, or Arf-Barf to his friends. Under the stewardship of John Greenhalgh, the Dining Club continues to provide good food and a chance to discuss he doings of the day (hash and rehash?).

Highlights of the year included the Annual Banquet; this year Dr. Halsey K Warner spoke, and Dr. Fred Murtagh was toastmaster. The fraternity awarded the Eben J. Carey Memorial Award in Anatomy for the freshman Phi Chi who attained the high- est average in Anatomy to Tony Perry, and gave to John C. Van Pelt, the Presiding Senior, the Michael J. Carey Memorial Award for the senior who has done the most for his chapter during his four years.

Since its founding in the year 1904 at Cornell University Medical College, Phi Delta Epsilon has sought to maintain and further the principles of high scientific and educational standards in the study and treatment of disease, to promote the highest ethics in the practice of medicine, and to provide good fellowship for the brothers. At present, there are seventy-nine undergraduate and graduate chapters in the United States and Canada. Sigma Chapter at Temple University was established in 1921. 232 The Temple Chapter's annual Aaron Brown Lectureship provides an opportunity for the entire Medical School student body and faculty to hear an address by a leading medical authority. This year's lecture, by Dr. Councilman Morgan of the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, on “The Structure and Development of Viruses,” was well received. It was followed by the traditional banquet with Dr. Morgan as guest of honor. Our social season was a ‘twisting’ success, culminating in the Five Chapter Dance. Numerous house parties planned by the various classes rounded out the social program. The Chapter house on Carlisle Street was improved this year by the renovation of the basement into a comfortable recreation room and library. OFFICERS: President Milton A.

F McDonald PHI RHO SIGMA Many of the brethern of Phi Kho Sigma, returning from their annual summer catharsis, were surprised; those oft made promises of summer labor within our decaying halls had been realized. No longer were we confronted with the inhuman task of restoring order to the kaleidoscopic rubble which invariably collects and chiseling out a three month store of collected grime. Much of this preliminary-work had been done; thus the preparation for rushing went smoothly ... or reasonably so. With only-minimal exhaustion following “paint-up fix-up” week, we embarked on our program of rushing under the leadership of Bill Rusin. Profound success resulted from our efforts as we greeted twenty-two new freshmen members. Phi Rho Sigma can report a very successful social program under the skillful direction of Pete Farrell. In a recent statement of policy from our social chairman, we are promised “bigger and better blasts.” Pete's word is golden! Alpha Lambda Chapter was honored by the visit of several distinguished guests on December 2. The members of the Grand Chapter of Phi Rho Sigma took time from their business meetings here in Philadelphia to visit the individual chapters in the city, not least of all our own Alpha Lambda. Braving the rigors of the onslaught by the Microbiology Department in an exam the next day, the sophomores - as well as the representatives of the other classes not so threatened — were present “en force to greet their visitors. It was no surprise to meet the Grand Chapter President since his mien is familiar to us: John Franklin Huber, M.D. The other officers were new to us but not strangers long. After refreshments, our officers conducted the visitors on a tour of the newly refurbished chapter house. Graciously receiving kind compliments, we bade them farewell and some of us hastened back to the study of Loa Loo. On January 3. Phi Rho Sigma had the pleasure of presenting to the facult and student body. Wilton Marion Kroghman, Ph D. as guest lecturer for the annual John Franklin Huber Lecture. Dr. Kroghman is an expert anthropologist and Director of the Growth and Development Center in Philadelphia. He spoke on “Anatomical Sleuthing; Tales that Dead Men Tell.” Regaling us with his gory experiences in frustrating the “perfect” crime, he told of his work in identifying human remains for various law enforcement agencies throughout the country. He has distilled the knowledge gleaned from these experiences into a book which will be the boon companion and guide for other anatomical sleuths. For those of us who attended the dinner at the chapter house. Dr. KroghmaiTs easy conversation and ready wit were an extra-rich dessert.

We salute each member of the staff: Miss Rita DcLuca, supervisor, Miss Janet Ditzler, Miss Arlene Reider, Miss Margaret Russell, Miss Judith Berner, Miss Patricia Dinsmore. Humble are we, and very much indebted, to these fine nurses for their constant guidance and supervision during our terms of night duty. Offering tips of nursing care, securing stat medications, checking laboratory cards, keeping patience while answering unending questions, and helping to calm the jitters are only a few of the numerous duties and deeds we acknowledge. Those dark lonely nights didn’t seem quite so hopeless when we knew the Night Staff was just around the corner. For all of this and quite a bit more, we offer our humble thanks and extend our appreciation. 270 We pay tribute to Miss Francis Dougherty, nurse, teacher and friend. Facing operating room frustrations and problems wasn't quite so hopeless knowing that Miss Dougherty was there with her helpful hints and gift of comfort. She endeavored to instill in each of vis the knowledge, skills, and techniques of the competent scrub and circulating nurse. Building up our confidence, lending a helping hand and being there when she was needed most, are only a few of the deeds this woman performed with the dignity of her profession. As the future unfolds before us and we begin our roles as professional nurses, we shall attempt to follow Miss Dougherty’s example of competence. loyalty, fortitude, and friendship. This will be our link with the past. 271 DIRECTOR OF NURSING FLORENCE E. BROWN Fifteen years ago, a nurse left her native hospital to continue her career of nursing at Temple University Hospital. A motivation extremely fortunate to us. because since then this woman has grown to be the ‘'immaculate figure in white our Director of Nursing, Miss Florence E. Brown. With her guiding hand she has led us through obscure paths into the enlightened field of nursing without excluding our own personal goals. We now know the meaning of pcrserverance. Along with this, she has instilled within us self-confidence, enabling us to face situations to the best of our abilities. To us Miss Brown has been a living example of the “Florence Nightingale Pledge.” As we go forth into our profession, may we strive to bring honor to our alma mater and pride to her. For her expert guidance, genuine interest and confidence, the class of “1962 extends its sincere appreciation to Miss Florence E. Brown. 272 ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR SCHOOL OF NURSING Introducing Miss Jane Stewart, Associate Director, School of Nursing. Miss Stewart, by sharing with us her many travels and experiences in the Middle East and Orient, has brought to us the realization of the vastness of international nursing. She has attempted to stimulate and motivate students to take pride in our chosen profession. Aside from her executive position as Associate Director, she has been both advisor and counselor to the student nurses. Miss Stewart has given of herself, her time and her knowledge to aid us in the development of a sound foundation of nursing. We, the class of 1962, extend our appreciation and our wishes for many years of success here at Temple. 273 NURSING OFFICE Miss June Miller Miss Dorothy Shogi Miss Florence Rutccki DAY STAFF NIGHT STAFF Miss Arlene Reidcr Miss Patricia Dinsmore Miss Rita DeLuca Miss Judith Berner Miss Margaret Russell Miss Janet Ditzlcr SUPERVISORS Obstetrics Miss Dufticld Orthopedics Miss Diflfcndorfer Operating Room — Miss Guzara 3PP — Miss DcYorio 4PP Miss Russell 8PP — Miss Kovalesky 9PP — Miss Drummond 3C Mr. Spccht HEAD NURSES 2PP Miss Schlcgcl 4PP Miss Tcrkowski 5PP — Miss Lorenzo 6PP Miss Schildt 7PP Miss Labonuski 8PP Miss Taylor 9PP Miss Bechtel 10PP Mrs. Blaseh 1 B — Mrs Lee 2B — Miss Evans 2MN Miss Toe we 2MS Miss Etenson 3B — Miss Singer 3C — Mr. Young Babcock Miss Cavanaugh 4B Miss Samolis Grcathcart Miss YVallick 5 Main — Miss Taber Delivery Room — Miss Snell 3MS Mrs. Williams Pediatrics Miss Mattioni Orthopedics Miss Pettit Central Supply — Miss Birosh Accident Dispensary Mrs. Deitrich Private Nursery Miss Vanik Premature Nursery Miss Bcrgland Ward Nursery Miss Ashburn 275 INSTRUCTORS DR E.

I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, and will not take or knowingly administer any harmful drug. I will do all in my power to maintain and elevate the standard of my profession, and will hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping and all family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practice of my calling. With loyalty will 1 endeavor to aid the physician in his work, and devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care. 328 That cap the nurse on duty wears Is costlier than the bonnets gay Worn by the wives of millionaires Regardless of the price thc pay. Tis something she herself can make. A bit of linen, trimmed and turned The right to it (for mercy’s sake Was with three years of training earned. That uniform of spotless white Was costlier than a lady's gown, ’Twas bought with care by day and night For those with illness stricken down. The royal robes show royal birth But every nurse's simple pin Is emblematic of her worth; A symbol she has toiled to win. Oh gracious spirit, love imbued. That can such tender care accord. Perhaps it is, that gratitude Must always be your best reward.

CoRtiSonE No knowledgeable person could have predicted more for cortisone. The time was April. 1948. The conclusion by a panel of distinguished clinicians that this medical new-comer, the first of the corticosteroids, would probably be of value only against one rare disease reflected the best in scientific thinking. No one could have foreseen that in the coming decade and a half, the corticosteroids would be utilized against more than 50 diseases and disorders, and that millions of persons would benefit each year. Merck Co., which pioneered with cortisone, could trace its interest in the marvelous secretions from the adrenal cortex back to 1933, when it had cooperated in studies at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. World War II gave the studies urgency when it was reported—falsely, as it turned out—that German aviators were making use of an adrenal extract to fly as high as 40,000 feet without oxygen. The federal government had lost interest by 1944, but Merck continued to push ahead with the adrenal program, cooperating closely in this work with Dr. Edward C. Kendall and his colleagues at the Mayo Clinic. It was Dr. Kendall who had first worked out the formulas for the corticosteroids. The first laboratory synthesis of cortisone, a mile-stone in medicinal chemistry, was accomplished by a brilliant young Merck scientist, Dr. Lewis H. Sarett. in December, 1944. It was in September, 1948, five months after the clinicians had issued their evaluation. that Dr. Philip S. Hench. also of the Mayo Clinic, made medical history with a series of cortisone injections given to a 29-year-old arthritic woman. The patient, who had been bedfast and virtually unable to move, delightedly went shopping after one week of therapy. A new era in medicine had been born. Within the research laboratories of Merck Sharp Dohme, which came into existence through the merger of Merck with Sharp Dohme in 1953. the quest for a better antiinflammatory agent has never ceased. In these laboratories, scientists probe deeply into the basic nature of inflammatory disease. Chemists synthesize and study a wide variety of corticosteroids: pharmacologists, physiologists and physicians check these and other compounds to see how they measure up in activity and absence of unwanted side effects. Merck Sharp Dohme’s research and development in the corticosteroid field is but one of the company’s many programs of scientific investigation. The medical scientists engaged in this work are the trustees of the better medicines of tomorrow, which are now being created in their test tubes and minds.

This discontented man scoured the mountains and plains of Europe and Asia in vain, finally losing both his fortune and life in his hunt for more wealth. Ironically, after his death, a fabulous fortune of diamonds was found on the farm he left. Dr. Conwell, founder of Temple University, was the young clergyman who heard this ancient legend in 1870 while on a trip from Bagdad to Nineveh on the Tigris River. It so impressed him that he made it the basis for his famous lecture Acres of Diamonds” which earned millions of dollars. With this money, Dr. Conwell founded Temple University which was dedicated to the ideal of making an education possible for all young men and young women who have good minds and the will to work . . .” We will be glad to send, on request, the latest edition of Dr. Conwell’s famous lecture, Acres of Diamonds. ” TEMPLE UNIVERSITY PHILADELPHIA SCHOOL OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOG7
