ciates and Dr. Schactcrle, our able advisor, set out to accomplish this task. Dr. John R. Minehart, Dean of the Pharmacy School, informed us that he would officially meet the class every Friday between the hours of two and three. What was he going to teach?” wondered the class. . . . What?” Balance.” Balance what?” inquired the group. And so it came to pass that not once during the entire year did we see a balance during Dr. Minehart s lectures. By balance, the doctor later explained, he meant a better balanced man and woman—better balanced to meet the obstacles which were to confront us in the wide open world. Pharmacy basketball received an impetus this year when the school became a member of the Eastern Intercollegiate Pharmacy League through the efforts of Paul Reznek and Dr. Frank H. Eby. At the same time the “Pharmacy Athletic Club was formed. Its purpose, as decided upon, is to foster intra-mural activities and to develop closer relationships between the various pharmacy schools in the country. Dr. Frank H. Eby and Mr. Harry Manlz were elected faculty advisors. Paul Reznek was elected manager of the club; Dr. Eby, treasurer; John Henry Minnick, assistant manager, and Maurice Tarr, corresponding secretary. The new year saw the changing of the Pharmacy Alumni Bulletin” into the “Temple Apothecary,” a journal devoted to the best interest of the Alumni and Student Body of the School of Pharmacy. Dr. Frank H. Eby is editor of the journal. Harry M. Forbes is editor of the student section and Paul Reznek his associate. During the latter part of February the Minehart Scientific Society was formed under the direction of Dr. Rowen. Monthly meetings of an interesting pharmaceutical nature were held, giving the student body broader aspects of Pharmacy. All was not fun, however. The final exams were approaching and it seemed very strange to the entire class that the day of graduation was but a short distance away to realize that we, the Class of '29, are on the threshold of graduation. As a climax to our college career, we held our Senior Banquet at the Club Madrid on April 18, and, classmates, was it a success? Was it? Did we have fun? Did wc? Will it be remembered indefinitely? Yes, it certainly will. It is a few days now before we say farewell to dear Temple, and so let us go with the erudition that we have accomplished that which wc had set out to do; let us go with an understanding that we came, not only saw, but worked earnestly and faithfully and finally conquered, and may the remembrances of the days of the three most happy years at Temple be instilled in your hearts for ever and ever.

Dr. Robert Rowen, instructor in Organic Chemistry, would constantly be asking the formula for acetic acid. Weisman, said he one day, give me the formula for acetic acid. Vot? said Weisman. ... 1 want the formula for acetic acid, said the doctor again. Acetik acit? said Weisman. “Veil, see hatch turee see double ho hatch (CH?COOH). Well, it didn't take long for the fun to begin. A theatre benefit held at the Garrick, called Love in a Mist, resulted in a bolstering of the class treasury (this was strongly needed). Final exams came, and said hello to us. It was not so much the examinations themselves that were dreaded, but rather the idea of waiting for them which kept us in suspense. Our biggest worry was the Chemical Calculation final under Mr. Graham; we went through with it, however, handed in our papers, then disappeared from the room through the corridors, and into the street—to freedom from books and studies—home and the Senior year. Again we assembled—SENIORS! We were the upper classmen, but for some strange reason we felt no different, except a little older and more dignified. A total of ninety-six students prepared for the final stretch. Dr. Cameron resigned as Associate Professor of Pharmacy to become Dean of the Delaware College of Pharmacy and College. He carried with him the best wishes of the class. Upon the first day of our return we all knew that Dr. Kcndig, head of the Department of Pharmacy, was to be our Professor in Pharmacy. Much was heard about the doctor and none had seen him as yet. We all sat waiting, eagerly, waiting to see what sort of a man he was. It didn't take us long to find out. In strode a man from the rear, who walked directly to the desk. He stood there, without saying a word, looking over the members. It soon became evident to those who were talking and joking that this man required silence—and in a few moments silence prevailed. Still we heard no word from the doctor. We began to feel uneasy. We wondered what sort of a man this was before us. Then in a clear, concise manner we were told by this same man that he was in charge, and when he spoke, he wished no one else to speak; in other words, silence--and silence he had for the remainder of the year. During this year we had more quizz periods than buttons on our shirts. We heard nothing but quizz, quizz, quizz in Chemistry, Materia Medica, Pharmacognosy and Pharmacy. These playmates had us nervous, bullied, groggy and worried for some time, but it didn't take us long to become acquainted with them until finally we began to know our stuff backwards, forwards, anteriorly, posteriorly, superiorly and some of us inferiorly. To choose our leaders for the final year was by no means an easy task. However, after much discussion and parleying, we finally made our choice to the best of our unquestioned ability. After the smoke had cleared Edward S. Brown emerged victorious and became Senior class president; Aaron J. Axelrod, vice-president; Fanny Miller, secretary, and Sol S. Turnoff, re-elected treasurer. Dr. Schacterle was re-elected class advisor and took a few minutes to impress upon our minds the nearness of graduation. In six months, he said, it will be March; now count April, May and you graduate. Very encouraging indeed. . . . The passing grade for the senior year was seventy-five. Bearing this in mind we were determined to overcome all obstacles. Paul Reznck was elected editor of the Record Book, and together with his asso-
