Verzyl Henry Bacich William Taylor Cover Illustration Stephanie Bcubis Business Secretary Cheryl Ann Zisk Congratulations on having completed the first phase oi your professional training. Bn your own efforts you have earned the status and respect society has traditionally accorded to I he newly graduated physician. However, you are entering your profession at a time when public confidence in medical practice is undergoing a severe test and is in danger of being lost. Public disenchantment with the practice of medicine has recently created a movement toward regulation and control. Ironically, though, the need for our skills is greater now than ever before and the scope of our responsibilities is expanding exponentially. Adequate health care is not the exclusive privilege of the affluent or powerful, but is, rather, the right of everyone. It is obvious then that our efforts must be directed not only to the traditional restoration of health but also to the maintenance of health and the quality of life. Health is. in a literal sense, the fastest growing industry in America. Its magnitude, coupled with the fact that it deals with the forces of life and death, has resulted in the involvement of both the recipient and the purveyor of health care in the development of standards. Priorities in all aspects of health care arc now the joint concern of the profession, the consumer, and the government. Your class is among the earliest to have to face these new challenges. Accommodation will not he easy, and understanding by all concerned will be achieved only through continued sensitivity to public needs and disciplined efforts to meet them. Success will require your individual efforts and your participation in a team composed of a variety of health care professionals. This team must be able to look to you for its direction. Although the complexities of the times demand that the approach to health care be a total and highly organized one, the essential ingredient will always remain the creative contribution of the individual physician. I believe your education at Temple has given you the necessary tools to integrate the many components of health care, to provide leadership in meeting the health needs of modern society, and, thereby, to regain public trust. Dean Temple University School of Medicine The North Philadelphia ghetto was one of ihe classrooms in our training. We learned about the decay of our cities, through the visual aids of boarded up homes and abandoned cars. We were taught how ingrained poverty, ignorance, and despair affected the human condition, both in mind and body. Yet, the hospital in which we learned was bankrupt too; it’s not easy to make money on people who have no money to pay. At the same time, monies did not seem to be forthcoming to people endowed with small political clout. The educational system was failing and bankrupt schools were not even able to maintain inefficient programs. Ours was an academic center which served a community—often the goals were in conflict. We spoke the language of the privileged, educated class and found ourselves separated from many of our patients b a cultural and communications gap. We were taught, by example, a particular form of racism mirrored by the difference in treatment and approach between private and ward populations. Often, our more “ignorant” patients would speak of experimentation, and sometimes we too might wonder why a particular test or procedure would have to be performed. ]pM yNlVWKTY MEDICAL CtHIER 7 5 - r � r«WMi HlWtsr ' Kis At the same time, we walked in feat in the surrounding neighborhood, and some of us were subjected to the unthinking violence of our society. The night inspired special fears from darkened streets and concealed faces. Perhaps, some of us missed the lesson that while we were able to escape that environment of violence, the permanent inhabitants of the community were subject to it at all times and could not escape. We had been placed face to face with the darker side of our society, its inequities and failings. Because of this it would be easy to succumb to a sense of despair. Now that we are set free, the four years ended, what directions will we take? The lessons we have learned cannot be forgotten. 9 .a a.slSl, 9 a 9 9 % A®. ?5o?e?? .1,9 9 $9 9ea ?9 ® @s.a.?.5,a a aA e ? e eAiume Af JWL !; £?? • AJM! 9 15,9 f 9A.IJ fJMJM A .9 5 9 fiAA,iWiiU SLA4USA 9 98 0 9 9 A6 ?.9JRJ9.1n,f Af JS,? ft-SL Freshmen The Class of 1973 began its formal schooling with an orientation to the new classroom and research buildings, the new curriculum, and glib remarks about Temple's new philosophy of education. More important, the male chauvinists realized that enough lady students had attractive legs to satisfy occasional fantasies, almost enough Black students were about to mollify the social conscience, and almost enough male students had long hair to satisfy the spirit of activism. Next, many had to decide whether to live huddled around the school to be close to whatever might be important to be close to. or to live outside the North Philadelphia ghetto, away from street gangs, crime, poverty, pollution, and paranoia. And finally, books, which often turned out to be needless, and white coats, which could make a student lecl like either a minor diety or the ice cream man, had to he purchased. Dr. John Franklin Huber frfrko-GJ - Dr William P lliirba. II X Dr Fred Rogers A r Long hours of lectures began in a rather large audio-visual sauna called Lecture Room A. Dr. Hamilton interrupted a flight up the stairs to announce the Biochemistry course. It began with a host of words and amino acids spoken quietly to the blackboard. For all but the most unchcmically minded, the course passed quietly too. Dr. Trover led us into Introduction to Basic Medical Science, a brand new and rather unchartered course.

Virginia Keeney Dr. Virginia Keeney offered Human Growth and Development on sleepy Wednesday afternoons. The outstanding event here was our first patient contact. We each eared for a woman during her pregnancy and often helped deliver her baby. That was a thrill because we finally had a touch of responsibility, saw some relevance to what we were learning, and discovered that storks arc not permitted in an operating room. Introduction to Clinical Medicine also provided enjoyable but limited patient contact. History taking was stressed, but some of the class prodigies mastered the art of reading a thermometer scale and finding a lub-dub. TERCOURSE . tikp7 Dr. Thomas Sisson A class election intervened here at some point—Bruce Dobkin was elected president and Larry Wcllikson became vice-president. Curriculum evaluations, meetings with ghetto leaders, faculty committees, and a free university evolved, but the social and educational revolution never picked up steam. Student activism reached one of its pcakN on October 15. when about 50 students joined hundreds in Center City to protest the Vietnam War and to publicize the November 15 March on Washington. A mayor named late and a cop named Rizzo watched from City Hall as white-jacketed students explained to Philadelphians why “War Is Not Healthy for Children and Other Living Things.” Dr Canon Scbneck I Anatomy, the course that signalled “Hey, we really arc in Medical School,” began and while Dr. Huber tried to help, he never did tell us how to introduce ourselves to a cadaver. Dr. Schncrk led the Gross Anatomy courses, Dr. Troycr commanded Histology, and Drs. Trucx and Way brought tip the flanks with a barrage of Neuroanatomy. The first tested the esprit de corps of the foursomes who hesitantly, then cockily, disrupted unidentifiable structures. Histo and Ncuro tested the most profound sources of humor and patience with repeated slide shows that proferred abstract exprcssionistic paintings for cellular structure and with microscopic studies in barren modules. The March On Washington that protested the American role in Vietnam excited a small group of students in November, but participation in a moral cause was easier before Christmas vacation for those who hammed their parts and those who rolled in the aisles at the First Annual Class of 1973 Rock Musical. Amongst the noble players were Jack Weiss, a balloon-laden Dr. Troycr, Obic Chizca. a saucy microbiologist, and Mike Bartos. a teeth-clenched Dr. Berkowitz. “The cast of dancers and singers were gross, but not too gross and insinuating, but not too insinuating,” wrote Judith Crist of the New York Times. (Maybe it was the Temple Times.) Spirits were high then but were struck ingloriously down by an Anatomy Department examination in January. Academic buffs who had never failed an exam found themselves failing two or three. Students who were used to learning course material “cold” gasped that too much material was covered, while calculating faculty pointed out that '73 played too much bridge and that the curriculum was too permissive. In its great benevolence the Department allowed most of the class the opportunity to pass. It 4 Dr. W Nobel Bala Dr Lorenzo Rotiritfircz-Per.tha 3 V ODE TO THE CLASS OF 73 Wc sense an increase in your elation As you’re about to embark on a two week vacation Leaving your studies and starting to bum Without a care for the curriculum. Yes. the curriculum which you inaugurated It’s much maligned and much berated Was planned for you as one of a kind To instantaneously blow your mind. So you won’t forget it, we’ll now pester About some highlights of this past semester When the new program started in these halls With you as experimental animals. The first week you found was very relaxed Wtih 10 million new Biochemistry facts And several other courses distributed in a bunch That completely eliminated Wednesday’s lunch. Dr. Hamilton enlightened the smiling hoard On the recovery of erasers behind the board While Troyer's overview was particularly lax In imparting any profound new facts. Dr. Daly introduced HG and I) Where he scanned the relation of her to he On sexual matters he proved quite a smoothie But it was expected, ‘cause he’d seen the movie. By the end of the first week, you all were to find That you were right in the groove and only two weeks behind You sat through endless hours of incantations Then ICM ruined it by mentioning patients. Oh. those first ten weeks were a tour de force In which you mastered the Biochem course You learned Hamilton’s act was not a dud Of how cows sit down to chew their cud. And Baldridge wc heard did surely tell Of how you acquire the sickle cell While Norcia appeared day after day Neatly attired in his lab coat of gray Picringer’s lipids was a confirmation that Thin men arc the ones who always talk about fat While Litwack and Hanson fulfilled the need Of all the fast listeners who arc crazy about speed. N. Conger didn’t lecture, but gave you review That seemed just the thing to pull some of you through While Weinhouse’s lecture revealed the answer Of how smoking lettuce can give you cancer. In those ten weeks there was more in store Interspersed statistically with Dr. Schor Supplying information which you’ll use best When you evaluate his course with hi% own test. DIMS pic ked up its pace As Dr. Lynch met you face to lace And gave your writing hand the wearies As he rated through membrane concepts and theories. But you survived that and had little to fear Until you contracted Phillips’ sarcomere “Where’s this course going?” you wanted to know Then you offered suggestions just where it could go. But we knew its direction and continued to run it We passed the ball to Dr. Punnett Whose medical genetics met its demise When the class concluded that genes were larvi’s. And women weren’t circles and man was no square And your third cousins grandmother had blue hair And your best girl’s features couldn’t deny That below all that was 2 X” and a “V . Then Molecular Genetic’s muscles were flexed And you waded through reams of Davis text As Moore, Zcigler, Zubrzyeki and Yamamoto Presented this stuff to you in toto. Shock man gave lectures a conference name Where Basic and Advanced were really the same And above the din. Dr. Marks would rcplv Mammals do it too, not just E. coli. And we finished that course before it got longer By irradiating it with Conger And aging it with the Adel man plan As he ended his lecture a tired old man. While all this went on, you found with remorse That HG D would survive intercourse And the embryo developing on Wednesday noons Looked more and more like rubber balloons. Each Wednesday at 1:00 you’d settle in your seat And just before you’d succumb from the heat Dr. Keeney would relate, when she was able. The jokes she’d heard at the breakfast table. Embryology was rapid, given in a jiffy Then pregnant women were overviewed by Iffy And Wingate would present his oratory Before you took the lift to the laboratory. Some group discussions were good, some were dull And a sizeable number just shot the bull And we’re told all your patients have found a way To deliver, conveniently, on Christmas Day. For the past couple weeks you’ve started to dab In the cadaver you found in the Anatomy lab Back and arm structures you did hurriedly peg And once when you blinked, your partner finished the leg. Histo also was fast and raised many issues In the first couple days you completed the tissues And Tntex’s lectures were not a regression Because we covered all Neuro by the second session. The Anatomy staff you hardly know yet They’ve got peculiarities like the rest that you’ve met Give them some time and you’ll soon see The blossoming of each idiosyncrasy. And now to be fair as we continue our jiding The Curriculum Committee stayed in hiding Your progrom’s too tough so they purposefully evade But they’ll show up to evaluate it. While I’ve blasted the faculty in this little blurb Mv unbiased opinion is that all lectures were superb And you won’t realize it. I might conjecture Until you stand up front and give your first lecture. Where you'll look ;it .1 mol of diversified faces Representing globs of homeostasis And you're sure when you look at each bowed head That it better move soon or you'll assume that it’s dead. Your long hair doesn't bother us and sideburns are in Even the kind that hides most of the chin But the fellow's coiffures that shoot out in wild curls Seem to imply th.it thev’d rather be girls. And on Monday mornings when you lecture at eight You can expect most students to arrive a half hour late And offer all sorts of important suggestions On how to answer Benjamin's first six questions. And just when we thought we wouldn’t bore ya You all disappeared for the moratoria “There's no time to study, the problem wasn't foreseen” Shout the students playing cards in the mezzanine. This lab is too simple, that lab was too tough Your lecture’s too deep, and you’re not giving us enough We hear this each day and it’s never resented Because this new program was sophomore invented. This little known fart may throw you for a loop But think very carefully who gave you the scoop T’vvas the sophomores who knew just what you would do While the staff was floundering and spastic too. And if you don’t believe that or any other baloney Maybe we rould blame it on Elaine N'eroni Or maybe it was a dispensation Meted out in jest by the administration. But alas and alack as wr look at the score You seem to be learning a little bit more Than past students practicing their vocation Who have yet to learn about self-education. Now that you’ve put the first months to the test And students and staff have tried their best It looks like you’re going to get some rest As you change from student to holiday guest And be thankful with us that there is no reason To change the curriculum of llanukkuh and the Christmas Season. J. Robert Trover, Ph.I). Professor of Anatomy December, 1969 Dr. Raymond Truex li seemed then that Temple's demands were aimed at prolonging adolescence and chopping out idealistic thought. The class realized also that the faculty and administration had not committed themselves to a Fail-Pass-1 lonors grading system. With the chairman of three of the basic sciences retiring, and with an Acting Dean and a depan ing Vice-President, little could be done to insure the real implementation of the new curriculum. Mam students were irked by the discrepancy between reality and expectancy, arid cxpicsscd sorrow that they hadn’t gone to Harvard for their education. The class began its regimented Physiology course under the auspices of l)r. Wcidcm.m and some lovely technicians—a course that had officially begun several weeks previously during Anatomy. A lot of dogs gave their lives that we might dramatically learn about cardiovascular physiology. By now, most students had a favorite scat in lecture Room A. so one could enjoy a steady diet of voyeurism with the same people each day. The faculty also got into voyeurism -one liked to catch those impolite students who dared to cat during a lecture. Dr Morion Oppenbeimer Dr Frank Herr a rj I The class was so decadent, in fact, lhat a survc during a Behavioral Science course revealed widespread dabbling in illicit drugs like marijuana and alcohol. Rmnor had it that some people had regular dates, played Rugby in league matches, or played softball and touch football at Hunting Park. Such disdain for academia led to at least two more acts of nihilism. R Or. Robert Payne ft. In the spring, the First Annual Campus Day was celebrated with a tree planting ceremony in one of the few green spots of Temple’s concrete enclave. It was a Brody Horowitz spiritual bacchanalc. President Nixon joined the class immorality by-sending American troops into Cambodia. Frustrated by what was later recognized as a typical Nixon peace with honor tactic, a group of students organized a hospital and medical school-based campaign that had physicians, nurses, paramedics and employees write letters to their congressmen to change the country’s w-ar policy. The success of the campaign was to be overshadowed by incidents like the killings at Kent State. The curricular year ended with Physiology and a lecture marathon called Interdisciplinary Courses, featuring Dr. Lautsch, Drs. Shear and Klfenbein, Drs. Fink and Toglia, and Dr. Knauff. A thin air of clinical relevance held the Supercourse together, hut by now the class had mastered the art of sleeping in a hot room despite a constant drone from the podium. A stalwart group of students preferred not to even attend. Both techniques would be important for survival during the sophomore year. The summer of our freshman year was loo short and almost before it had begun, it was over. From now on ii would be all down hill, or so we thought. The class had received official letters from William 1 . Barba II, telling us that we had successfully completed Year One. Not many of us knew who he was or what he looked like, but with good news who cared who it was from, though we had hoped to get a letter from the Dean. As classes reconvened on September 14. 1970, we readied ourselves for the new wave of academic liberalism that was about to sweep Temple University’s North Campus. The departments of Pathology and Microbiology had installed self evaluation testing in place of the traditionally absurd graded exams. This coupled with our Pass Fail(?) grading system should have ensured an educational Valhalla for those who had grown weary of competing for grades. We then settled down in Lecture Room B for what would prove to be a very-long year. Pathology met the criterion of relevance, presenting a scries of lectures highlighted by discussions of Kuru and xeroderma pigmentosa. Basic trivia such as TB and hepatitis were squeezed in whenever time would permit. An integral part of the course work was the small group modules. Those of us in Dr. Kline’s I-inkcnau group were teased and titillated with hour after hour of microscopic slides of parotid gland tumors. Those of us lucky enough to be in the groups of Drs. Levy, Bascrga. Lautsch, and Dapena were exposed to good education which more than made up for lecture deficiencies. Dr Marie X'aldes-Dapena l)r Renato Raserga Dr Elizabeth Launch Or. JoiCpb Baum Dr, Hruce Elfenbein Many of the class started with Boyd’s tome of Pathology, and somewhere in the middle of the kidney chapter switched to Little Andy for the duration, placing Boyd on the shelf between Mountcastlc and Davis. Dr. John Farter Dr Morton Kirin Sandwiched between free time and II G Sc D. the Microbiology Department introduced us to the world of microorganisms and infectious disease. Who’ll ever forget Dr. (Crafty Ken) Cundy and his passionate plea for goobers times three; or I)r. Schrcck, who was so inspiring that it was rumored that his throat contained no normal flora, because they had been bored to death. Dr. Morton Klein, a frustrated thesbian, provided us with some of the finest lectures of the year. Mis mode of presentation was dramatic and his voice projection inspiring—a subtle combination of Laurence Olivier and Groucho Marx. Dr. (Sam the Proctologist) Eisenberg added a new dimension to our lives, suggesting a totally unique application for the everyday thermos bottle, a repository for warm stool. What he didn't tell us was how to dispose of the empties. Dr. F.jrir Spaulding 7 Dr Billy Cooper Amid the chaos of the fust semester, the Second Annual Christmas Play offered a welcome relief to Faltering spirits. For once the lecture hall was filled jjtd as the faculty smiled weakly, we portrayed their teaching styles as best we could. Armed with reams of “Ace Notes” and vast quantities of medical knowledge, wc readied ourselves for final exams in January. These “National Board-type exams were harbingers of what was to come nearly six months later. Figuring out the grading system proved harder than taking the tests. Grades ranged from A) Honors-Pass-Fail; B) 65. 85, 95; C) I, 2, 3, 4; D) all of the above; and E) none of the above. • • • . i ii't • x tm. „f t.hc choice-, in questions 1 to 6 may bo correct. i ic i tvi • mt.m.i- at !.-ttor(- .

As the second semester began, none of us really expected the hour after hour of continuous lectures (sonic very good, some very bad, and some in between). As we became overclassed and undertaught. we turned to Ace Note Taking Service for aid and comfort (many of us also turned to class cutting as well). Ace Note Takers were a spartan lot. Motivated by a sense of loyalty to the class and S3.50 an hour, these hearty souls provided their classmates with notes for every lecture hour. While many of their classmates were drifting in and out of REM sleep. Ace Note Takers filled in the gaps. Dr. Charles Papjcouai Dr Stanley Gtauser The memories of second semester were a blur for many, but here are just a few glimpses: Dr. Stanley Glauser assigning homework and then collecting it. The ID courses, faster than a speeding bullet, more tiresome than an overdose of barbiturates, less informative than the “Classic Comic Book” for medicine. Dr. Lautsch's carousels for self-teaching in your spare time.” Dr. Salganicoffs “blood brain barccr.” Dr t.eon Salganicoff Or Bcrtr.un Cbarnnck Dr Alan Mirk� After listening to Channick, Murks, and Adlin, realizing that vour high school sweetheart could have used a good endocrinologist. Dr Victor Adlin Sharpening your needle for your first venipuncture in RES, only to find your lab partner locked in the ladies room on the sixth floor. Doing your first H 1 alone, and having the patient know it. Having him help you along, and you not knowing it. Dr. Shear cutting the salami too thin. Dr. Tyson’s pithy surgical maxims such as. “The surgeon knows his patient best because he has seen him from the inside. Sitting through Ob-Gyn and hoping they’d cover it Again in the junior year. Dr. Ollie Owen saying, “If you eat too much, you get too goddam fat. Dr. Huber (as a young man) in a filmdom first, discovering the broncho-pulmonary segments. Dr Alan Gruskin Dr James Spann. Jr Dr Leroy Shear A joyous interlude during those harried times was the Second Annual Campus Day-an out of doors soiree, consummated by planting a tree. Appropriately, three weeks later the tree died. There is a message there somewhere. The semester shuddered to a close as the Boards overshadowed seemingly unimportant finals. One week was allowed between the end of finals and the Boards. Certainly not enough time to review two years worth of material and just enough time to cat all the pencils in the house. Two years in two days. Many of the questions made us wonder if we'd been studying the right subjects for two years. When the Boards were over, a feeling of emptiness pervaded. No raucus laughter or sophomoric stunts -just fatigue. Now there would be a whole summer (our last summer vacation) to recuperate and then hopefully a letter front the Dean heralding the junior year. Such are the rewards of medical school education. It was a sunny morning in September, 1971. Straggling into the Kresge mezzanine were the tyros of clinical medicine, ready to don white coats and eager to establish “doctor-patient relationships. But wait—where are the white coats, medical instruments and ubiquitous three-by-fivc cards bearing patients’ names and problem lists? And why are so many carrying shabby spiral books left over from the previous term? Why does everyone look so happy— it’s time for Junior Year lectures. Dr. Jot Torg In the beginning, we found ourselves listening to discussions b such Muskuloskclet.il giants as Drs. Schncck, Aegetter, Levy. Lachman, Steele, Martin, and Torg, and enjoying it. How well we remember Dr. Steele casting the leg of one of the girls in the class and loving every minute of it. Dr. John Martin Dr. Hugo Smith Dr John Lacbman Near the end of the second clinical block, the Dean’s office was inspired to reinitiate testing for junior year courses. The majority of us signed a petition of solidarity expressing our desire for repeal of the exam ruling and affirming our intention not to sign the exam should it be given. Or. Robert Krause Dr Rill Hammer In the midst of all of this, we received an education. Drs. Sherry, Warner, and Soloff treated us to excellent discussions of thromboembolism, current problems of drug use and cardiac arrythmias. Dr. Krause and his marvelous machines brought patients to us in the form of boxes. Dr. Lauisch appeared again—to talk of many things and uihcroscslcrosis too. The RES superstars presented numerous case discussions and lectures which expanded on the Sophomore course. Or. Louis Soloff Dr Rosaline Joseph Then test day arrived. For once, class solidarity was almost complete. The facts just seemed so clear and the faculty’s ravings just that—student power reigned, if just for a little while. The GI course featured a week long battle between the surgeons and the gastroenterologists. We may well remember a menacing Dr. Goldman looming over a somewhat tetrified Dr. Moritz as they “discussed” their own approaches to Gl disease. The Gl course was most noted for its realistic approach to clinical problems. The attitude was exemplified by Dr. Clearfield who has unfortunately flown the coup to go to Hahnemann. At the end we had a test and those failing received two tickets to the 76crs. The Pulmonary course was an extension of and elaboration upon material presented in the previous Spring. The format was altered little from the Sophomore year and remained about as successful at capturing our undivided attention. Dt Harm Clearfield Neurosensory Sciences proved a blur of too much in loo liule time. For many it was the first exposure to ENT and Opthalmology. The course featured probably some of our best cducators-Drs. Haase, Toglia, Ronis, Chan, Scott, and Murtaugh. In the end NSS could do little more than introduce subjects better discovered during the senior year. Dr. Gunter Hajst Dr Frederick Murtaugh. Jr Dr Michael Scott Dr. Bernard Ronis Dr Joseph Toglia £zZ Or Jack Greenberg Dr Hairy Woloshin At Einstein and Episcopal Hospitals the pediatric inpatient populations were generally small. At Einstein, most of the student's day was spent at lunch with Dr. Philip Barba, or in conference or at clinic. Clinic provided good experience at well baby exams and Dr. Barba’s loud “ah boo, ah boo resounded through the clinic frightening babies and mothers alike. Dr. Harold Meyer of Episcopal provided excellent teaching in the nursery and the active outpatient department. St. Christopher’s was the common experience in pediatrics. It was a unique setting where the abundant superdocs proved to be accessible and friendly teachers. Dr Victor C. Vaughn. HI Dr Mary Louise Cote Dr D.K'i, S Smith Dr. John Kirkpiitrick Dr Renga Rajan What have you learned today, Doctor?” His Indo-British accent knifing through our sleepy neurones at 7:00 AM, the Maharaja of Meigs’ Syndrome, the inimitable Dr. Rajan bombarded us with lectures in Ob-Gyn. Dr. Rajan also made his presence felt on rounds, in clinic, in the OR and DR. He was by far the most aggressive and effective teacher in the department. The rotation was divided equally between obstetrics and gynecology, with such rapid patient turnover that precluded any doctor-patient relationships. Temple was noted for its abundance of unmarried mothers and teenage pregnancies, while the Einstein experience proved to Ire more middle class. Dr. Darryl Townsend Dr. John l-'erratano Dr Michiel Jotepb Daly The Psychiatry rotation tried to address itself to problems that never seemed to be covered in the core curriculum. The psychiatrists led us on a guided tour of the minds functioning and dysfunctioning via lectures, demonstrations and visits to various mental health facilities. For some, outpatient clinics provided worthwhile training while the neophyte shrink found himself fidgeting and feeling as anxious as the person he was trying to help. The fact that instructors and fellow students might be viewing from behind the mirror and laughing did not make the affair any easier. For the most part. Psychiatry was an easy going experience wherein those students who were interested could derive benefit, while others recuperated, sunning or skiing depending on the prevailing season. 'T Or. Dennis Mini},id; Or. Herman Hirsh Or Allan Crintol Or Joseph Wotpe Dr. John Thomas Dr. Willis Mayer Dr Robert Tyson Junior year surgery was largely an exercise in dynamic tension at the operating tabic. Holding rakes and Richardson retractors and watching gleaming instruments flash past our noses occupied much of our time on this clerkship. Our class experience on surgery was perhaps the most variable of any of the services; and all too often education seemed to be a function of individual personalities. Some relished the entire surgical ritual and the drama and excitment. Others dozed through conferences and daydreamed through surgery as they cut sutures on the knot. Dr M. Prince Brigham Dr. Vincent IV. Lauby Dr James Hams Or Leroy Stablgrtn Dr George RosemonJ There were some rather chilling rumors about the junior Medicine rotation at Temple Hospital. It was enough to make one wish for a few more boring lecture hours than to meet the menacing ogres of Mighty Medicine. Who was Dr. Sherry? What could he possibly have against us? Medicine 1 was an experience in education-provided by house officers, attendings. consultants— not the ogres they were said to be. We were students (we had been called that before), but we had responsibilities; we were part of the team. There was still room for anxiety but most of the pressures and fears came from within. Professor’s rounds could be a traumatic experience, even as Drs. Sherry, Wax man, and Durant looked on or out the window with benevolent gazes. We had our most direct contact with the interns and residents who managed somehow to be both teachers and friends. Certainly, not all of us were destined for careers in Internal Medicine, but we all could appreciate the commitment to education which seemed to pervade this department. DON’T WORRY.

The remarkable house staffs we encountered seemed to be gathered from the four corners of the earth.

It’s knowing there’s a back exit from Grand Rounds. It’s (not) wearing white pants. It's not wearing a tic. It’s not showing up at a clerkship for a few days (i.c., visiting internships). Now we arc ready to put it all together. Finally we’ve mastered the hospital lingo and gotten over our fears of the house and attending staff (as well as of our grading system) and we’re ready to reread our underlinings and correlate the morass ol medicine. Dr II Janie . Day- Dr Thomas Durant But senior year really began the day we first got our advisors. Advisors, you might remember, either told you to take things you'd never get again (i.c., never need and never use) or to pick electives of all the things you’d need to succeed in your future subspccialty. Or both. Armed with such good advice and Smith’s smorgasbord selection of electives, our class concocted their clerkships. Freedom was the byword, loosely translated as ESCAPE. Some classmates only came back to Temple to check their mail, and then only under duress. Others nestled in the warmth of 1UII and prepared themselves to he lifetime Broad Streeters. i But one thing we all shared at Temple Hospital was the AI), a vestige of continuity that remained into the senior year. This was the one rotation where you really felt needed. Over-needed. Three weeks of wearing the same shirt. Whoever realized that three weeks had 21 FULL days? We found out that the Emergency Room was a euphemism for all-night gynecology and orthopedics clinic. In the Al) you knew you had really made it when you could treat cases of “pt states that he hurts all over. And just a word about the mercenaries when do they finally get here? Where arc they? How do you wake them up? And frustration is calling a slat consult to the AD and having your classmate show up. That’s progress. But happiness is convincing a junior (or better, a freshman or sophomore) passing through the AD that starting the IV in room 4 would really further his medical career, and having him believe you. But the AD was not all fun and games. At times, and more often than not. it was the worst interface of the community and the hospital. In the beginning only the chronic AD people, the old time patients and the paid hospital staff—the daily combatants-abused each other. As the days wore on, lab studies weren’t ordeicd, or results not checked, or more time taken between patients and certainly less interest in the patient as a person. Everything became a blur, and at the end of the day the weariness, which went beyond mere physical exhaustion, left a feeling not of a job well done, but just a job finally finished. And so it goes. In addition to the AD, the tme thread that ran through our senior year was the Quixotic search for the perfect internship. Or if not that, then a place with patients, where you could get in. Any place. Once again, advice was plentiful. Good advice, though, was sparse. From the medicine department: “University is the only thing. You should have no trouble finding one; after all there are 105 med schools, and of course the training at each and everyone of these is better than any old community (hleah!) hospital. Now let’s sec. you’re a class three student in a class two school seeking a class four internship, and as soon as Vic Marder tells me what that means we'll let you know.” Advice from the surgery department: Or if you don't get into Episcopal, then you can always come here. Advice from the administration: “We want every student to have a clear picture ol his record. No. I can’t let you see your evaluations, but I can para-pluase them for you. No. I can’t let you see your I Van's letter, though I can tell you it wasn’t written by the Dean. But let’s see. let’s have a look at last year's match. Well, you probably wouldn't have much of a chance at New Hampshire General since they dropped their internship. But you could try University ol Maryland ihcyNEVF.R fill.” (Sound advice, given to every warm body at Femplc. and now Maryland should have an all-Temple house staff. Well, at least they filled.) The interviews for internships were no better. Coming from Temple proved perplexing to hospitals that associated Temple onlv with Bill Cosby. “Well now, you're from Temple. How are things in Pittsburgh? ... Oh. Philadelphia, that's a nice place. Things changing much at Old Penn? . .. Oh. Temple, you say—yes, fine school. And the interviews moved from the sublime to the ridiculous, asking everything from your father’s profession (is dry cleaning a profession?) to a case presentation (which isn’t so easy after consecutive rotations of psych, ob-gyn, and radiology). The travel proved an experience in itself. You were more likely to meet a classmate at Syracuse nr North Carolina than in the mezzanine. And everyone seemed to be going through the same paradoxical torment of feeling that he would never get in anywhere he wanted, and even if he did get in, he would never be able to handle the work. “Matchmaker, matchmaker. PLEASE make me a match. While most hospitals concentrate on getting .1 house staff, Temple, as usual, was busy trying to find a Dean. Having started with an invisible Dean, ii seemed most appropriate to end up with no Dean ai ill. Dr. Paul Kotin, trying to push Temple into the computer age and change the sccoiul-classism that once embodied Temple, met with marked resistance from a Board of Trustees that were up to their double chins in deficit. Faced with this situation, they decided to either abandon Dr. Kotin’s policies, abandon Dr. Kotin, abandon Temple University Hospital, or enter the Lucky Seven Lottery. Dean Kotin saw the red ink on the wall and headed for Stony Brook (N.Y.) Medical School, only to be short-circuited by an almost unanimous outburst by the students, junior and senior faculties. The faculty planned to quit, and the students said that they’d take the junior year cardiovascular exams. All ended well as Kotin agreed to stay, after the Trustees decided to let Kotin do his thing. Most of this happened without most of our class knowing about it, which is about par for our class. Other people touched our world, senior year. State Senator Ben Donolow threatened to charge each of us for the privilege of being educated in Pennsylvania unless we stayed here to ply our trade. Unfortunately Mr. Donolow contracted a fatal illness and died at Temple midway through our senior year. Another state congressman from Philadelphia had an even better idea. Martin Mullen proposed to make ALL abortions illegal. And dadgum if he didn’t push the bill through the slate legislature. Luckily Uncle Millie (the governor) vetoed this progressive measure. Before the veto, one member ol OB Department was asked what effect the bill would have on him. and he replied that he would deliver the babies at 10 weeks instead of at 12 weeks. After all the politics the Supreme Court surprised everyone and made abortion legal. Stale Insurance Commissioner Herb Denenberg held lots of hearings and made lots of noise, general!) upsetting most of Pennsylvania’s established medical community (well represented by Temple). It seemed that while Denenberg utilized hyperbole at limes, maybe medicine here did need a revamping, especially at the basic doctor-patient interface. And damn if the Vietnam skirmish didn’t overshadow most of our four years at Temple! At times peace was at hand, but more often than not the war seemed to be a never-ending absurdity. Finally, the end of four years’ work had arrived. Much has changed within us. individually and collectively. But the metamorphosis had surely cost us maybe as much as we had gained. We arrived four years ago, more the patient than the practitioner, cringing at some of our profession’s practices. It will be our responsibility to regain that perspective and to remember that the doctor serves the patient, and not vice versa. Hopefully, the knowledge and skill we continue to acquire will be tempered with the recognition of the importance of human values. :emple universit OF THE-COMMONWEALTH SYSTEM OF-HIGHER EDUCATIO HORITY- OF ■ THE- BOARD OF- TRUSTEES - AND - UPON • RECOMMF OF-THE-FACULTY- HEREBY-CONFERS• UPON W )t Cla£3 of 1973 THE • DEGREE • OF ©octor of jHebtcme IER-WITH • ALLTHE- RIGHTS - PRIVILEGES-AND • HONORS -APPE] TO ■ IN • RECOGNITION • OF • THE • SATISFACTORY- COM E - COURSE - PRESCRIBED • BY- THE • FACULTY- OF • THE • UN STIMONY • WHEREOF • THE • UNDERSIGNED • HAVE - SUB • NAMES • AND - AFFIXED ■ THE • SEAL • OF - THE - UNI • AT - PHILADELPHIA- PENNSYLVANIA • ON • THIS EJWap Nineteen Jpunbreb anb Cljm mon tage (mon-tazh', mon-tazf ), n. the art or process of making a composite picture by bringing together into a single composition a number of different pictures or parts of pictures and arranging these, as by superimposing one on another, so that they form a blended whole while remaining distinct.

BAIRD Having been born and raised on a small farm in Central New Jersey, I’ve bad an opportunity to grow up in a simpler atmosphere than I am experiencing now in Philadelphia. 1 have always had, and will continue to have, a certain respect and love for the simple life based on common sense and respect for others. I also spent my undergraduate years in Philadelphia, and although I have learned much from city living, I will be very happy to leave come May. I plan to go into Family Practice in a small rural community, as yet I don’t know where. My hobbies include hiking, camping and reading. 2 A FINAL LOOK AT OUR FOUR YEARS AT TUMS: Freshman Year: This was the year we learned to work: major subjects included contract bridge, intramural basketball, and Flyer’s hockey. During leisure time I concentrated on hobbies such as anatomy, physiology, ad nauscum. Sophomore Year: A real toughic: more bridge, ice hockey at Penn and that horrible lab experience—handball. Being fickle, my interests during spare time turned to path, micro, pharm. and ID. Junior Year: In the hospital at last: key rotations included psych -golf, pediatrics-tennis, Med I sleep? Senior Year: The year of electives: most sought-after blocks were six months of mattress testing, three months of clinical loafing, four weeks of mezzanine, and six weeks vacation. WARREN A. BROOCKER LOIS K. BROOCKER B.S., Temple University, 1971 Elementary Education Teacher Will achieve M.Ed. from Villanova in 1973 In a more serious vein, only a select few are privileged to undergo the overwhelming sea of medicine. Therefore, to my fellow classmates and their wives, I wish all the best in their chosen fields of medicine. 4 PAULE. BRUBAKER I was born the first day of summer. June 21. 1947, in Lancaster Co.. Pa. Until I came to Philadelphia to Temple Med. School. I lived with my parents, an older sister and brother, and two younger sisters on a small farm near Brickcrville. a village 5 miles north of Lititz. Pa. In this setting I came to love the open countryside, and its local flora and fauna, spending many hours in my youth tramping through open meadows and woods, or hunting for crayfish or salamanders in nearby springs. As a result of these meandcrings and the accumulated knowledge of nature, I bke to consider myself an amateur naturalist. My education began with three years in a one room schoolhouse. where each of the six grades had a row of scats and desks set on the oiled wooden floor. Those were beautiful years which I wouldn't trade for anything' Grades 4-6 were spent in a typical elementary school Grades 7-12 were spent at Warwick High School in Lititz, Pa., where I took the academic course and graduated in 1965. I entered Elizabethtown College, Elizabethtown. Pa in the fall of '65. but I commuted all four years because of financial problems. It was a good four years, and when I graduated m 1969,1 had a B.S. in Biology. 1 received the Weaver Biology Award, an award given to the outstanding senior biology student; I had published a paper; but most of all, I had been accepted to Temple Medical School. I enjoyed med. school but didn't become involved in outside activities. I never enjoyed living in Philadelphia, and am looking forward to interning in a small city, and eventually practicing Family Medicine in a small town or rural community. I married a country girl. Sandra (Sandy), from back home in April of '72, (a good move!). Generally, I am quiet, unless with close friends, in which case I do have a good sense of humor. I am independent, and don't mind spending hours by myself, particularly in the outdoors. I have been brought up with a strong belief in God and the Bible, and this Christian background was a dominitating factor in building my character and guiding my goals. As a result of this background, I have never indulged in alcohol or tobacco, and I have a sincere belief in pacifism, which I try to practice in dealing with everyday situations, not just as it applies to wars between nations. Also, having been raised among the Pennsylvania Dutch, some of their beliefs in the conservative approach to problems, and being practical in whatever you do, have definitely been interpolated into my appraoch to life and the situations it presents. 5 DAVID E. HERMAN Pictured on this page are members of my family. I owe much to each one. Despite a lack of great talent in music. I was introduced to the concert choir at Roxborough High School by my sister, and enjoyed group singing both there and at Penn State University An jpptuudc for history and interest in world affairs, shared by my brother, has been a continuing interest in my life I have been privileged to experience life in several Caribbean countries and Guatemala. Particularly rich experiences were had in Guatemala while assisting the people medically. The compassion and true love for others displayed by my parents-a direct outgrowth of their commitment to Jesus Christ as l.ord-influcnccd my choice of medicine as a profession. After a year of rotating internship, my plans arc vague. I am trusting that God will show me some area of real need where I can best share the love I have found through my personal experience with His Son. Jesus Christ. 6 HOWARD L. ELEFANT LOOK INWARDS 7 STUDENT FOUND GRADUATED UPI— May 29—A medical student, Bruce Dobkin. was found Iasi night, apparently graduated in his Old York Road apartment. Police could find no clues, except for several reams of notepaper covered with polysyllabic words by ACE. thick textbooks with numerous thumbprints and pizza sauce stains, and a peculiar instrument that experts identified as bring half a stethoscope. Some graffiti. “Kool Kotin, was scrawled on an apartment wall. The victim’s father, Mr. Bernard Dobkin, when reached for comment, remarked. “Gladys and I were afraid something like this would happen, especially in that neighborhood.' We had hoped the boy would Continue his education when he finished at the medical school, so he could have more time to decide what kind of job to get. said the shocked parent. Friends expressed astonishment at this latest in a scries of graduations of Dobkin’s classmates. A young lady, the last to see the Student, was found at the Onion by investigators. She reminisced, It was a typical night—the Loudon Cafe, a concert, a few beers at Dirt} Frank’s. She asked to remain anonymous. Another acquaintance was quick to recall that Dobkin had narrowly escaped being multiple-choiced by the faculty. Following up this lead, investigators discovered that the young medical student had managed to remain BRUCE H. DOBKIN virtually unscathed in various encounters with the faculty, whether in lectures or meetings. However, some faculty, including Drs. Xcedleman, Ginsberg, Haase. Bascrga. Joseph. Daly, and Spaulding were found by investigators to have been influential in instigating the graduation. Agents expressed surprise that the student was not influenced by, or did not receive palatable information from, the many others involved in teaching and evaluation. An autopsy has been requested by some laculty to determine, once and for all times, how much information was stored in Dobkin’s brain. Internship services will be held shortly. 8 KENNETH J.

M.D. 18 STEVEN La PORTE Steve spent his first seventeen years in Brooklyn, New York. Having to escape the life in the big borough, he did his undergraduate work in Manhattan at Hunter College City University of New York. He icceivcd his bachelors degree in Biology and Chemistry in 1968. The next three years of studies were spent at the Universite de Lausanne Facultc dc Medccine, Lausanne, Switzerland. It was there while studying medicine and skiing, that Steve met Jan who was studying in Germany on a Fulbright fellowship. During the summer of his senior year, they were married. Steve decided that he wanted to finish his clinical years in an American school, and so he transferred to Temple. He is interested in training in internal medicine in the Philadelphia area.

HOWELL I graduated from Rutgers University and have fond memories of my days there. I was a pre-veterinary major and was happy in my field until four months of poultry pathology convinced me of two things: I would be a medical doctor and I would never cat chicken again. I also played Varsity 150 lb. football in those days. Can you believe that? My summers in college were spent working for a carpenter—I’m a carpenter at heart, I guess. This experience came in handy after my graduation and wedding in June, 1969 when, sheepskin in hand, I purchased a 1954 ex-telephone truck and founded “Decks by Doug”. . . “Turn your backyard into an outdoor living room” was the pitch that paid my tuition and bought Sharyn and I a Germantown rowhouse. Redwood suiulecks, my carpentry subspecialty, continued to keep me busy during my next two summers. My business has made life pleasant for us—in fact, the only disadvantage has been that Sharyn’s parents sometimes can’t remember whether my name is Doug or Deck: “How about a beer. Deck?” Recently our family has grown and we’ll be leaving Temple with our hirsute “son —Simon, our pugnacious Puli puppy. There once was a little hoy who loved to play doctor” with the little girl next door. That meant take all your clothes off because, of' course, an examination nude you better Hut now he’s all grown up and gone through college and medical school and he knows better than that Now he realizes you have to take a history first Much has happened in between. He decided he would lie a bachelor, met a girl, fell in love, and married me three years later. Being an only child, he thought kids were just strange little people. Hut he’s found out that they’re so much more, and that he can’t stand to see them sick, lie adores their wonderful mnoccnceand honesty. When it hurts, they let you know loud and clear, but when you’re gently and help them, they kiss your hand and tell you you’re great And who can resist that! So now, at last, this little boy will no longer play doctor, but be one. It’s time to say goodbye to Temple Med and hello to the little people. GEOFFREY E.

HOWE Le Medecin Malgre Lui Oh I suppose I should wash the walls of my office polish the mst from my instruments and keep them definitely in order build shelves in the laboratory empty out the old stains clean the bottles and refill them, buy another lens, put my journals on edge instead of letting them lie flat in heaps—then begin ten years back and gradually read them to date cataloguing important articles for ready reference. I suppose 1 should read the new books. If to this I added a bill at the tailor's and at t he cleaner’s grew a decent beard and cultivated a look of importance- Who can tell? I might be a credit to tm Lady Happiness and never think anything but a white thought! There was a young doctor named Thomas Whose manner was almost anonymous Though his speech was laconic He could prescribe a tonic To heal maladies mean and abominous. William Carlos Williams SI Only ihns much I would require, honesty in every physician, that he he rmi ovcrcareiess or covetous, harpy-like to make a prey of his patient; to demand a large fee from a patient in the midst of his agony is more worthy of .1 butcher than a physician, as a hungry surgeon often produces and ... prolongs unduly his cure, so long as there is any hope of pay, like a leech that lets not go till it has sucked its fill. Many of them, to get a fee. will give physic to every one that comes, when there is no cause, and they do . . . stir up a silent disease, as it often falleth out, which by good counsel, good advice along, might have been happily composed, or by rectification of those six non-natural things otherwise cured. When these precedent cautions arc accurately kept, and that we have now got a skillful, an honest physician to our mind, if his patient will not he conformable, and content to be ruled by him, all his endeavors will conic to no good end. Many things arc necessarily to be observed and continued on the patient’s behalf, hirst that he be not too niggardly miserable of his purse. Or think it too much he bestows upon himself, and to save charges endanger his health. Another things is, that out of bashfulness he do not conceal his grief; if aught trouble his mind, let him freely disclose it. 'Tis a part of his cure to wish his own health, and not defer it too long. (hough many again arc in that other extreme too profuse, suspicious, and jealous of their health, too apt to take physic on every small occasion, to aggravate every slender passion, imperfection, impediment: if their finger do but ache, run. ride, send for a physician, as many gentlewomen do. that are sick, without a cause, even when they will themselves, upon every toy or small discontent, and when he conics, they make it worse that it is, but amplifying that which is not. A third thing to he required in a patient is confidence, to be of good cheer, and have sure hope that his physician can help him. He cures most in whom most are confident. Excerpts from The Anatomy of'Melancholy bv Robert Burton ANGELA F. IANNFI.I.I 32 THOMAS V. HOI.OHAN Some lime after being born on a day of high wind and low portent, my procrastinating tendencies being temporarily abetted, I received a master's degree in psychology, married my wife, and was commissioned in the Nav -in a space of one month. I have not since equaled this prodigious burst of energy. After completing flight training, I spent four years in the Navy, involved in research in aviation. Maureen, our oldest daughter was bom in 1966,and Mary Kate in 1968. They have since continued to keep me very proud of them, and, needless to say. frequently humble, as daughters arc wont to do. It is to some extent the prerogative of a graduate to provide some critical comments regarding his education (indeed, as our distinguished faculty undoubtedly did in their turn); such bring the case. I would recommend increased emphasis on the formation of the student’s character as well as knowledge. The best physicians I have come in contact with have possessed a fund of empathy and true compassion commensurate with their technical skill. If to this is added humility and a sense of humor, with the ability to see the beam in thine own eye, a truly great doctor of medicine must result. My only remaining obligation in this peroration is to express my gratitude to those deserving: to my classmates, for your friendship to the faculty, for your patience to my parents, for your helpful confidence to my wife, for your love, understanding, forbearance and encouragement to my children, for just being yourselves 5 — I 33 MARY DALY JOHN M.

Joe had no one favorite course in the pre clinical years. Being a compulsive note-taker, Joe has volumes from all courses, including Dr. Payne and his BS course. During the clinical years, Joe rated surgery tops. He plans making his professional home in a surgical specialty. Joe is a member of the Temple chapter of the Phi Chi medical fraternity. Joe plans to stay out of the big cities, within driving distance of the shore and mountains, and with a full range of seasons. He enjoys playing golf and tennis in the spring and summer, skiing in the winter, and bridge anytime. I'hc first time I realized Sheldon Kail’s great ability to be a doctor was when I was lying on a soccer field with a broken tibia and fibula. I was lying on the field in agonizing pain when 1 sec the camp doctor. Sheldon Kali, walking slowly towards me. About live minutes later Sheldon reaches me and says. Very interesting, you may have broken your leg. With Sheldon’s expert supervision I made it to the infirmary on a stretcher. Then Sheldon thoroughly examined m leg. Then he said. “1 think you will have to go to the hospital. About thirty minutes later Sheldon runs in and says. I found a car that you can go to the hospital in.” It is not that they found the car too soon and that we kept a steady pace of five miles an hour down the super-highway, it is just that when the intern came to get me in the wheel chair, he didn’t know who was in worse condition, me or Sheldon. But. everything turned out all right. Sheldon is a very nice guy and great at football (I don’t know whv he didn’t go out for the Temple team!). So if Sheldon does not make it as a doctor (which is preposterous) he can always count on football. By the way his record is infinite number of losses and one win.

I attended Monmouth Regional High School in New Shrewsbury where my favorite subjects were biology and chemistry. 1 spent some time on a special project concerning tissue culture of mouse cancer. During my spare time 1 was very active in the Red Bank Junior Rifle Club. Since we have always lived in a suburban-country setting. 1 was able to enjoy my other hobbies of fishing, canoeing, camping, etc. During my pre-med days at Allegheny I was a member of the Varsity Rifle team all four years, and served as co-captain for three years. During my summers I served as .« Field Sports Director (Riflcry and Archery) at Camp Cawaw near the Delaware Water Gap. In my senior year I worked on a special project on amino acid sequence analysis. Since I have been attending Temple, 1 have been able to follow my newest interest—sailing. The summer after my freshman year 1 had an NSF fellowship working under Dr. Norman Conger. I am engaged to Christiane Beauregard, a first grade teacher, and we expect to be married as soon as I graduate. 1 am applying for a surgical internship and would like to go on to plastic surgerv. 51 All this utas a long time ago, I remember.

What I've Been, Where I Am, and Who I Am I grew up in a poor neighborhood; my parents were unable to afford better. While we did not want for food, we had few luxuries, and as a young boy. I decided to study hard and achieve success. My parents, especially my father, encouraged me to get good grades in school. My brother, who climaxed a brilliant academic record with a Ph.D. in physics, set a sterling example for me. As a youngster. 1 was awed by the family doctor; his kindness, his knowledge, and the mystique of his art intrigued me. I always maintained aspirations toward medicine, and in college realized that I had chosen well, since I did quite well in both the humanities and sciences but felt no strong leanings toward either. I am happy with my choice of medicine, although I have not yet decided which aspect will he my life's work. I have maintained many interests outside of academic life. I have served twice as Vice-President for Phi Rho Sigma fraternity. I was a member of Mensa for a few years, but lacked time to participate. I love to play ping-pong and pool, and from lime to time, I do a bit of tennis, swimming, archery, howling, bike riding, frisbcc-throwing, and guitar-strumming. My interest in music ranges from Palestrina to the Beatles. Much time during the past couple of years has been devoted to my fiance, Diane Glassman, a registered nurse at Einstein, who is to become my wife on June 3, 1973. I am given to periods of indolence, sloth, and gluttony (are these my good points?), but on the other hand I have periods of feverishly productive work. I am tolerant of most people, am quick to trust and quick to forgive. I have a good sense of humor, and am generally in a good mood. I can say with some pride that 1 ant on good terms with all of my classmates, and I wish them all the best of luck, happiness, health, and wealth that this world can provide. 53 MORTON L. SILVERMAN I decided in high school that I wanted to be an M.D. It was either that or Broadway musicals, and I took the easy way out. I worked hard, mainly in outside activities and varied summer jobs, convinced that such was the way to a true education. I refused to feel the competition of getting into medical school. And do you know? They rejected me! Thank God! ... 1 became a VISTA Volunteer and gained more from that experience than I ever could have given. I reinforced my conviction that it’s people that really count in life, not material things. Like most of us 1 charged enthusiastically into med school -only to be crushed by Baldridge’s first lecture. 1 can honestly say that the high points of medical school for me have been being a pregnant woman (twice, no less), backpacking trips, summer jobs, and certain classmates. Working in a small hospital north of the Arctic Circle I realized it was medical school, and not medicine, that turned me off. That knowledge helped me through the third year. Smiling at Sol I shrugged off the agressivcncss which Temple thinks so worthwhile and took time to gel to know my patients as people. I played the game at Sugarloaf. I fought for I_iut$rh and lost. (She won). I went to Uganda and relearned from Obi Chizea perhaps my most valuable lesson of the four years: the importance of being optimistic. It makes such a difference. Now I imagine I'll try to combine the above points as well as possible. Maybe I’ll end up tap-dancing my way into rural general practice in Alaska, away from the rush-hour traffic and Cadillacs, where there arc still many problems to be solved, but where a lot of time can be devoted to just enjoying living. I'm not saying it’s right for everyone, but it’s the way I’ve chosen. However mean your life is, meet it and live it, do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so had js you are It looks poorest when you are richest The faultfinder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse The setting sun is refected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man's abode. the snow melts before its door as early in the spring . Our circumstances answer to our expectations and she demand of our natures. Henry David Thorcau 33 THOMAS K. STEMPEL Having grown up in Homestead, a small town on the outskirts of Pittsburgh. I had all the advantages of both small town and big city living at once, but it wasn't until I came to Philly. that I really began to realize how people in a metropolitan area react, or fail to do so. Thiel College and my fraternity life there helped me to find myself and discover how positively to interact with others. It helped me to comprehend the fact that although goals in life arc essential, if one forsakes all else to achieve them, when they are finally attained, he ends up with nothing but the goal itself. Temple Medical School has been an experience 1 will never regret, and will always be proud of My experiences in being able to work with so many different people in various hospitals, as well as nursing part-time at St. Chris, has been most rewarding. And the opportunities afforded me in being a Big Brother to a fatherless child for three years and being able to tour T.urope for a whole summer have given me an appreciation of myself and otheT I hadn’t previously known. So. when I receive my degree this May. not only wall I be able to say I have achieved my goal, in which I will continually strive to improve myself, but that I love the life I have lived. 56 57 Hundreds of his colleagues and former students gathered here last evening to sav farewell to Dr. John J Pell. Jr. on his retirement Dr. Pell, who has been Chairman of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Temple University for the past twenty years reminisced about his brilliant career I first came to Temple as a medical student in 1969. When school started I was still a little dazed from an injury I sustained in a LaCrosse game at Johns Hopkins, and therefore, it took me a while to get into the groove But by junior year I was really moving. I began my clinical training with an externship in Internal .Medicine in the summer after sophomore year, and rapidly confirmed the fact that I was interested in surgery. This trend continued through my third year, which I remember well. It was then that I built my reputation as a one-hop fielder in the delivery room, and had my first practical experience in orthopedics while on a surgical clerkship at Abington Hospital What really nude me decide on a career in orthopedics, though, were my recreational activities One day while skiing in Vermont, I saw so many people with broken legs that I knew there would always be a need for me if I were an othropod. So. I took a rotating internship and then a residency at Temple, after which I went into private practice for a few years Then, to fulfill a long-standing ambition, 1 returned to the University so that I could teach. And somehow or other I ended up here tonight. JOHN J. PELL 58 Age 25 Born in Harrisburg, Fa. Reared in Middletown, Pa.

With the help of some enthusiastic teachers and a little self-motivation. 1 feel that I am leaving Temple with a wealth of information and. perhaps more importantly, a sense of medical maturity and objectivity, almost in spite of those who would defend the old simply because it exists, and who are satisfied with mediocrity both for the school they represent, and in their performance as teachers. But. enough of this— I would like to take this opportunity to thank those people who in some special way contributed to my growth as a physician Dr. Renato Bascrga, Dr. John Farbcr, Dr. Gunter Haase, Dr. Robert Krause, Dr. William Mat tern. Dr. Sol Sherry, Dr. Roy Stern, my parents, and my wife, Barbara. Thanks again, Dave Brody 61 To Mom, my thanks. Who, through childhood gave me an example. Who, through medical school taught me to listen, And note whose words I pray I 'll remember. 62 Just six days after Linda and I graduated from Seattle Pacific College, our belongings packed, our car sold, we took the train 2800 miles to Philadelphia Our first exposure to the East was North Philly Railroad Station' That first summer I did surgical research for Dr. Goldman, and Linda found a teaching job at Wyncote Elementary. We both were sick a lot the first year. Linda got food poisoning at Howard Johnson's on the way home from a Free Methodist Medical Fellowship convention in Niagara Falls; Shoop. Janelli, J age nun and I opened our cadaver case and found 300 pound Big Bertha.” While training for a lab tech job at Jeancs Hospital, we flew back to Seattle in July, 1970, for a trial which was cancelled, giving us a nice vacation with our families. The sophomore year was the roughest with those unending classes. My lab job and extracurricular activities provided variety, including being church pianist, choir director and Sunday School teacher. The clinical years were a welcome relief and gave me opportunities to finally use my 19 years of previous education to help other people I plan to spend a year in Indonesia with missionary doctors following internship in the Pacific Northwest. I would like a family medicine career either overseas or in an American rural area. 63 MICHAEL J. KLEIN Michael Klein was bom at 11:50 P.M. E.D.T. on July 28, 1947. The first expression of his philosophy of life came eight days later, when he micturated in the face of the rabbi who was circumcising him. Ironically enough, this same rabbi's revenge came 24 years and 360 days later when he performed Michael’s wedding ceremony. Throughout childhood, Michael was best characterized as fat and precocious (in that order). Mis development was extreme, but unfortunately, most of it was comprised of adipose tissue. His first word, coming at the age of nine months, was “operation” rather than the more usual “ma-tna” or “da-da.” This word was an obvious extrasensory portent of future plans: Michael was destined to run a numbers operation. Because of his size, Michael’s mother was able to enroll him in a parochial school kindergarden at age S' i. He did extremely well early in school, able to read sixth grade texts while in first grade. This remarkable mental development continued; at the time of his graduation from high school, he was already reading eighth grade novels. In high school, his hobby was applied chemistry. He applied it to three shirts, two pairs of trousers, and a ping pong table. He suddenly abandoned his hobby after discovering that his short-range flame thrower was, in reality, a long range flame thrower. (“That damned door set me back two month’s allowance ). Somewhere during the course of his musical education, Michael discovered that lie had acquired perfect pitch. This fact has caused cardiologists to hate him fervently, for instead of describing a murmur as musical, he persists in naming its note and frequency. When asked to include his greatest accomplishments and aspirations for his biographer, he stated. “What is this, some kind of fellowship application? Besides, don’t you want to know the real me?” 64 It is manners to issue a statement As to what you got out of it all. So I’ll say, though reflection unnerves me : . .. that untraveled world, whose margin fades For ever and for ever as I move ...

New York, a bouncing nine-pound boy was born to Mr. and Mrs. I.cslcr Smith. They named him Randall, and then decided that he would be a doctor. Growing up as one of six children proved a happy and rewarding experience for Randy. Sports with his three brothers occupied most of his childhood days. Elementary school, junior high, and his school days flew by. Randy was off to Ohio University where his next four years afforded him many new opportunities. Among them were Resident Dorm Assistant.

GARY P. GOTTLIEB 68 A. LEWIS VADHEIM A bit of a cowboy by Eastern standards, tny husband docs reflect his Western background. The typical friendliness and easy going humor of a Westerner arc his, and these he combines with a genuine interest in people. Mis favorite activities show his love of the outdoors—skiing, hiking, camping, and fly-fishing. Me is probably happiest when sitting by a rocky stream miles away from civilization with a sketch book or camera capturing the majesty of the Rocky Mountains. When he cannot be outdoors he enjoys basketball, woodcarving, painting, and macrame. His musical interests include listening to plus playing the piano, guitar, and harmonica. Lew is from Bozeman, Montana, where he attended Montana State University receiving a B.S. in Chemistry and an M.S. in Biochemistry. Mis future plans include returning to the West to establish a practice in internal medicine and pediatrics. Of course these plans also include our dog, Gretcl. and the child we arc expecting in January. Liane Vadheim 69 The transition from first year medical student to intern is much akin to a true epiphany. Only through the hard work, insistence and “insults” of the house staff; the love, patience and care of all your loved ones, and through your own true grit, night oil. and determination can one prepare for a successful medical career. One of the first concepts you learn to deal with is that of “patient population. Idealistically this is that group of motivated individuals who have a deep interest in their own well-being and thus stand to benefit a great deal from your knowledge and skills. Unfortunately it is necessary to use the word idealistically for in reality the meaning of the term is much different. In the real world your patient population is a reflection of society as a whole with all of its inequities and mini-tragedies. You see the perceptive young men who have devoted their lives to self-destruction with heroin, the innocent children who are battered by their parents, the once sharp minds which have been dulled forever by alcohol, the once-attractive young females who have thrown their lives away the people some would Call the dregs of society. Dregs?!! Maybe. Perhaps they are dregs because they missed the boat. Maybe. Perhaps they missed the boat because they did not try hard enough to catch it. Maybe. God forbid!! Could they have missed the boat because somebody sped up at the crucial moment??......................Maybe. On the strength of such obsersations and experiences a medical student molds his life style—a life style dedicated to service which is inspired by the desire to help others. Long and arduous may be the toil of transition, but given the impetus of a goal fulfilled, the end of the way will be most rewarding. 70 1 ¥---- (I man can Ckri t done, without knotting Vovxi worfcs-yndeed bi cetWfoty won't Know how it uiorfcs until Ve las.

Prior to medical school. I had engaged in nuny of those activities (i.e working in 1 hospital and paticipating in research in bio-chemistry) that arc often recommended to acquaint an aspiring doctor with the medical profession. But it was not until February. 1970. following the Battles of Biochemistry and Anatomy, that I began to appreciate the role of MrJirinae Doctor While this experience might seem trite within the context of our current clinical expertise, it should be remembered that fora freshman med student, it had to be the event of the year. During that first year of Temple Medical, we had monthly appointments with Obstetrical patients as part of our course in Human Growth and Development This program not only represented our first real patient contact but also was revolutionary in itself because it contradicted the assumption that medical students could not sec live patients until the basic sciences were completed Wc had an arrangement with the nursing staff at Episcopal Hospital that, as soon as our patients were admitted in labor, we would be notified. At 2:00 A M. on the morning of February 24. 1970. coincidentally my twenty-first birthday. I received The Call. It seemed to be a long trolley ride on that cold, snowy, winter night but finally I reached Episcopal. Minutes stretched into hours and the hours seemed like days. Then at 6.19 A.M. my patient's ammotic sac ruptured. There arc moments in life (the Kennedy assassination comes to mind) when one's awareness of time is magnified greatly. For me. this was such a moment. Indeed, it was at this time that I arrived at the realization that there were no other physicians around—I was alone. Fortunately my patient was gravida five and knew a little about childbirth At 6:24 A.M. the baby presented her head and was delivered just as the resident on-call ran into the room. I continued to sec Carmen and her mother in clinic for approximately a year after her birth, and eventually became well-acquainted with her family and their problems. While many patients in succeeding years would lie memorable for one reason or another. I think that the experience with my first patients will always be most firmly embedded in my memory It is my hope that medical education will continue to recognize the importance of early clinical experiences in the making of a physician and will extend the opportunity to participate in this aspect of the profession even into the undergraduate years. Perhaps some day I may be able to contribute to this goal. 80 HARRY DRASIN A PICTURE IS WORTH TEN THOUSAND WORDS 81 LAWRENCE M. HOEPP FOR SALE: 73 M.D., HARDTOP NEW, MINT COND..

Real and unreal, ridiculous and too honest an acceptance of the self is a hard and mindful task, to ask what I am or what I am doing. J. Beck, 1984 83 Paradoxically medical school has little connection to medicine, a fact that has become increasingly clear to my as my senior year progresses. 1 am greatly relieved that this is so; secretly all during the first three years 1 hoped that it would be because most of the qualities which were fostered, valued and rewarded by our educators then were abnormal for anyone, including those learning to be skilled in the art of healing. The metamorphosis from a person with curiosity and compassion, to a freshman and sophomore memory bank computer, to a third year automaton to a fourth year medical humanoid, to a physician is a tough one. The systematic dehumanization in the first two years happened less by plan than by ignorance, which made it even harder to accept; it was implemented by essentially well-meaning people who had the misfortune to be conditioned in the very same system. The curriculum, the basic foundation of these two years, was inflexible in its scheduling and content, while at the same time the people who constructed this curriculum had literally no idea of what exactly it contained or how it was scheduled. Also, it was carried out with penetrating persistence. F.vcn when the situation became so obviously impossible that any method of coping was legitimate (including cheating and drugs) the pre-set plan continued on with apologies, reprimands or no response at all. Students had only theoretical influence on the forces ruling their lives; dependency, indifference, dishonesty, lack of creativity, little initiative and coinpulsivcncss were all qualities which were adaptive in the first two years and without them you were miserable. The third year continued to mould, however, at a more intimate level through the physician models and the conditioning to particular types of personal interaction. It was jokingly said to me on the first day of my first third year rotation that, You are low man on the totem pole here, and shit runs down hill but this was actually an earnest description of that year; there were, of course, exceptions. The condescending and patronizing attitudes of those higher in the peck order, only because they knew more medicine, were demeaning. The teaching methods of choice were embarrassment and humiliation. Frequently even common civility was ignored c.g. if you contaminated yourself in the O.R. Generally the treatment of students undermined self-confidcncc to a painful degree and made learning something so unpleasant that it should be avoided if possible. To escape increments of cither you had to be extraordinary or extraordinarily dull so I don’t think that very many got off scott-frce. In the fourth year wc started being treated as we should have been in the three preceding years, as adult human beings. 1 praise the fourth year but 1 don’t think that it can undo all the negative changes conditioned or bring back any of the positive qualities lost in the other years. From my perspective now. I do not think that I would do it over. 84 Leif Rasmussen 85 Born April 6, 1947 in Kristiansand.

In fact, it wasn’t until the last game, after discovering the need for eyeglasses, that Lev saw the ball and drilled it to right field where the right fielder made the only catch of his career.

Dr. John Franklin (“Daddy ) Huber. Doesn't he remind you of the physician you would most like to have at your bedside? Indeed, hr has healed me. Not once, but many times. Not with medicine, but with words: kind words, loving words, inspirational words, motivational words, and sincere words. If not for those words, this page in our yearbook would be noncxistant and someone else’s face would reside in the upper left. If not for that man, my life would still be meaningless .. . caught on the treadmill of non-identity. In an era of planned obselescence where men question the viability of their institutions and fear to love one another. Dr. Huber remains erect as the symbol of the ethereal way things “used to be. Daddy Huber has spent most of his adult life at Temple Medical School loving and guiding every frightened student who had the good fortune to seek him out. I will never forget my first visit to Daddy’s fabled office. For many weeks I had been paralyzed with problems which felt totally singular to me and I doubted my ability to communicate or even identify them. Mv knock on his door was almost inaudible; yet, instantly he was in the doorway, shaking my hand, embracing me, relieving my apprehensions, knowing exactly what was wrong and making everything right. Unkowm to me, that first meeting was to be a microcosm of our relationship. To this day, I can imagine no more tranquil scene than the one depicted in the lower left. I will always be the boy in the chair opposite Daddy, but the beauty of this man was meant for all to share. How do I repay someone who has transformed my adolescence into the confidence to heal? How do I say I love you? I hope it is enough to dedicate my career and my life to this incredible man. 100 Edmund Paul Popielarski is a native of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania where he attended King’s College.

Thoreau 106 LAURF.NCF. I). WELLIKSON Medical school has been a search for identity. Bright cyed I came from college (bucolic Muhlenberg) ready to enjoy the splendors of the big city. My apartment was robbed twice and my car stolen even before anatomy ended. I pictured myself the scholar, the self-educator, professional student. Yet I flunked the anatomy midterms and missed more classes than 1 made. Perhaps I was a politician, the voice of the people, president of student council, of the class. More I was the too loud voice, the leader of councils unknown, the self-appointed spokesman, the thorn. But soon I found my role—the husband (Sharon’s), the provider, family head, lord and master. Soon to realize I was the garbage man. bathroom leaner, parasite (you mean you live on your wife’s salary?). And later the delusion of healer, physician, teacher, professor. Yet worried about not matching and not being able to do the job even if I did match. The security of medical education is passing your boards, matching, and graduating. Now perchance to learn. 107 108 109 ANTHONY K. GIORGIO C.C Graduation HPl: Thu u th fourth medical ichool year for thu 26 y.o. male who presents with the CC of graduation from medical school The patient was in his usual state of good health until about 4 years previous to this time when he received a letter of acceptance to TUHMS. At this time his friends noticed extreme agitation and hyper-irritability relieved only by a bottle of Seagram's. These symptoms rapidly subsided after one bottle. . In Sept.. 1969 the patient began to experience nausea, sweating and ■ H.R. He also noticed increasing difficulty with his Kreb's cycle and Hexose Monophosphate Shunt In Dec., 1969 the above symptoms subsided, but the nausea and H.R persisted At this time his friends began to notice a severe unrelenting foul odor emanating from his body. Simultaneous with this he noticed a change in the taste of his food and a green fungus growing beneath his fingernails. He also c o extreme tension and irritability ol his nervous system from his tentorium cerebn caudad. These above symptoms all increased when he was given a piece of paper with a few black lines on it and told to fill it up ' In Feb.. 1970 the patient began to experience the sensation that Tuesdays and Thursdays were longer than they had previously been. He also began to c o severe pruritus and felt that he had tics all over hi body. In June, 1970 he felt that he should get away from it all and requested that he be committed to an institution. Hu friendly psychiatrist recommended 90 days at the edge of South Jersey Shore at a bird sanctuary. The patient attempted this, but was arrested for violation of an ostrich egg and was subsequently referred to TUH for further evaluation. In Sept., 1970 a now method of Tx. was attempted. The patient was given a series of books and quizes with which he was to evaluate hu own progress. He used this new form of therapy with much vim and vigor Alter two months of intensive self treatment he developed tachycardia. SOB at rest, intense diaphoresis, nocturia 7 8X nightly, and intense feelings of angor animi. These were a result of the fact that he was going to meet the Board in June, and the Board would decide which direction his therapy would take. He subsequently developed many problems with his Gl, GU, Cardiac. Pulmonary. RES. and Endocrine systems-too numerous to enumerate at the present time. Then in Feb., 1971 tho epiphany occurred. Ho finally began to learn about the various drugs that he had been given by his physicians. The green pills cancelled the effect of the blue pills which in turn were accentuated by the red pills, and then subsequently were oxidized, then reduced, conjugated, and excreted in hu cerumen. He knew now that he would never be able to face the 8oard in hu present state. In the last week of June he was led into a room and locked in there for two days. He was told not to leave until he marked all the blank spots on the paper While in the room he could see his life flashing before his eyes. Looking around he noticed that all the other patients in the room were starry eyed and somber-they were all victims of shock treatment He left the room feeling hypoglycemic and demonstrated bilateral lateral gaze nystagmus. He also c o tinnitus and gluteal bursitis. Hu Psychiatrist again recommended a 90 day leave of absence The patient was informed by the older patients that he should try to forget all that had occurred because his third year of treatment would be much different. In Sept., 1971 he was informed that h had to meet the Board a second time. He now being more mature had the opportunity to Choose April or July. He chose April to shorten the agony of waiting. From Sept., 1971 to July. 1972 the patient experienced many visual and auditory hallucinations. He felt that he was being born again and experienced this sensation many times. On time he developed a huge bifrontal Headache secondary to CPO. Then he imagined that he was a child again and was locked in a crib with a tent over it. All th adults dressed in white would come in and call him Croup, and then smile at they tickled his feet. They would then look amused and he subsequently wet his pants. His world continued to flash many diverse and frightening stimuli to his mind He now imagined that he was a psychiatrist and was treating people whose statements about life made much more sense than hu own. At this time he also began to prescribe pills for many ailments. He would give green pills to cancel out the effect of the blue pills. Blue pills to augment the red pills, etc. Hu delusions continued ... The analysis of his Red top tubes returned and all hu 'zymes were elevated He had a palpable S-3 and an S-4. He had a dancing liver. It was no wonder that his eyes were yellow and hu legs weak. Then it happened. A masked man in green PJ's walked in and told him that he was going to save hu life. The man said that he would be pul to sleep and when he awoke all his problems would be over. The patient tried to protest, but a mask was placed over hit face .. . The world darkened ______When he awoke he noticed tubes extruding from every bodily orifice. He experienced pains that he had never felt before. The friendly Psychiatrist told him that hu ileus was all psychological. It was a result of hu love-hate emotions conflicting with one another and that he was unable to cope with his environment. He met the Board a second time The resultant confrontation was no different from the first. In July. 1972 he - is informed that he was now a Senior patient-a TRUSTEE! He was now able to go to other institutions around the world in order to intensify hu treatment. He attempted his best, but toon realized that the difference between a trustee and a first year patient was three years. All the modes of treatment given in th previous years had to be relearned. Thu time he was expected to know and understand them. In May. 1973 our patient was informed that he was being released with a Diagnosis of M.O His follow-up would consist of two to three years of intensive therapy no matter what field he chose. IMPRESSION : 1. Medical Doctor PROGNOSIS: Entire Class-Excellent Oil DAVID A. PIACENTE In a way, you could say that as long as I’ve been in good old Temple Med. I’ve never had the usual worry about where l d be going for internship and residency. Since being graduated from Lafayette College, there has always been (and some of my classmates think will always be) one choice—the ARMY! July 1st will bring an assignment anywhere from Honolulu or San Francisco to Washington, L).C. What I want now is to get into a combined 4-year program in Diagnostic Radiology in which internship is split between medicine and radiology. At least presently, radiology is the speciality of the month. For the moment this is the open-end of a path from Linden, N.J., through Lafayette College (where the most pressing concern is. was, and always will be to Beat Lehigh! ) to Philadelphia and Temple. Philly. I will leave with some regrets and memories of people I’ve known. Temple—well, Amen. (At least I'll never forget 1404 Tioga St.) 112 DAVID J. SPURRIER Big is the word that best characterizes John upon initial observation. He has carried his 6’5 height since high school and is currently trying to keep his 210 lb. weight from increasing. Born in Brunswick, Maryland, he has spent most of his life in Jermyn, Pennsylvania where his parents operate a 32-acre camp in the Poconos north of Scranton. A country boy at heart, his four-year stay in Philadelphia has been trying at times. During his undergraduate years at Messiah College, his major extracurriculai interest was athletics—primarily soccer and basketball. Since coming to Temple, he has continued playing basketball and has added a new sport(?) to his interests—contract bridge. He has been married three years, and his w'ife, Esther, teaches cane travel to the blind. 113 114 CONSULTATION FORM NEAL R.

KEFLEX, M.D. 4300 North Broad Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 116 November 14, 1972 Dr. Arthur S. Torticollis Director of Medical Education Ozark Co. General Hospital Sibelius, Mississippi Dear Dr. Arthur S. Torticollis, 1 have been asked by Mr. P. Bennett to write a letter in support of his application for a position on the house staff at your institution. Having known this stellar young doctor well from his earliest infancy to the present time 1 feel I am uniquely qualified to evaluate his capabilities and am happy to be given the opportunity to do so. He was born August 2.r� , 1947 in Springfield, Mass. This was followed by an uneventful childhood and pre-adolescence. He then entered high school in Mechanicsburg, Pa. He quickly and enthusiastically decided on his future career as a researcher in the complex and fascinating field of biochemistry. He entered Drcxcl Institute of Technology with this goal in mind only to discover that he hated chemistry with a passion almost unsuited to his nature. The previous summer he had worked as a hospital orderly and had become somewhat interested in medicine so he transferred to the Pennsylvania State University in the pre-medicine curriculum. There he learned two things; how to take tests and drink beer. He gained entrance to Temple University School of Medicine on the basis of former. Unlike many medical students. Peter has remained single. This is possibly due to the fact that he was dumped by both his high school and college girlfriends. However, it now appears that his marital status may be changed by the time he joins your hospital. As far as his medical qualifications are concerned, I can see no reason why you wouldn’t want this fine young doctor on your house staff, since you haven’t filled your intern quota since 1953. Sincerely yours, PETER H. BENNETT 117 LAWRENCE CORDON Dignity or what wc consider to be dignity-is probably the main curse of physicians und other professionals. Wc rationalize that our patients expect it of us, and sve arc correct. But too often we confuse dignity with pomposity and ostentation. Dignity is not a funereal manner or a fancy, decorator-designed office suite. True dignity is Osier apologizing to a young woman for keeping her waiting or a great pediatrician playing the harmonica to •reassure a frightened child. Dignity is a brilliant middle-aged Washington lawyer who often cats his lunch in a downtown park. He relishes chance meetings with friends he doesn't usually see. Great' That’s one of the nicer things the hippies have taught us-spontaneity. Doctors arc potentially freer than most people, but even wc still wonder about what people will say or think. You'd be surprised how little most people care, and how much better you feel when you act on your impulses The little cards and the questionnaires save a lot of time. I am sure, hut the medical profession is charged with being too impersonal already, and just riffling through the cards to arrive at conclusions won’t be helping it any. Besides, half the fun of medical practice is in the personal relationships you develop with your patients, and anywise old clinician will tell you that the patient will come up with the diagnosis nine times out of ten if you just shut up and listen to him.

Physicians A Philosophical Dictionary Voltaire Dr. Rodrigue: doing my anatomy dissection as I stand holding my breath. The Sophomore Curriculum It seemed to Philip that he alone of the clerks saw the dramatic interest of those afternoons. To the others men and women were only cases, good if they were complicated, tiresome if obvious; they heard murmurs and were astonished at abnormal livers; an unexpected sound in the lungs gave them something to talk about. But to Philip there was much more. He found an interest in just looking at them, in the shape of their heads and their hands, in the look of their eyes and the length of their noses.

HARDING i , n- TENNIS 130 I graduated from Temple University in 1969 with a major in Biology. 1 entered medical school with the idea of going into research, but soon found working with patients much more rewarding, and I plan to enter internal medicine. While in medical school. I was an officer of Phi Delta F.psilon Medical Fraternity. While a sophomore in college, my wife, Edita, and I met, and we were married in August. 1971. 13! When I first stumbled into Philadelphia three years ago, the first person 1 chanced to meet was a one Bill Baldino; later to be known to me as Baldoni or Billie “B”. lie was attired in a well-worn St. Joseph’s T-shirt and was covered from bis cranium to his calcanciutn (sic) with green paint in an abortive attempt to upgrade the appearance ol the rat-hole he has called home the past four years—the AKK house on Allegheny Avenue. He seemed pleasant enough, what with bis almost continued grin and mcthanolic mirth, but suddenly began to gasp and wheeze uncontrollably; bis eyes glazed and soon only high pitched squeals were heard and his body soon relaxed and normal speech returned .... I had witnessed the now famous Baldino laugh. Bill is a very competitive young man and has been known to display his athletic ability in many ways: who can forget the numerous times he has pranced delicately and unscathed through a crowded party, pinching the derriere of every young lovels in sight; or, when disguised as Homer crash and burn, the times he and mother nature have clashed on the ski slopes? This competitive drive will probably lead him to a career in surgery where, although he may not be the best, he should at least be one of the fastest. And as he is now about to leave us and head to snow country for an internship, il would do him well to remember his own words of wisdom: “Don’t cat the yellow snow. 132 Reflections! Gifts! 1.
