SK.MOII (LASS 1MSTOKY On September 23. 1936, the good ship TU-39 set sail upon the Sea of Knowledge for Chiropodia with a crew of 72. We were destined to make this land of opportunity our permanent habitat. Painted a cherry red to reveal to the world its courageous spirit, and set with sails of glistening white, the ship reflected the untiring ambition, perseverance, and willingness of the crew to accept any training that would help it face whatever difficulties the future might have in store. According to all reports of previous journeys, the expedition would be a long and tedious one. Many squalls would be encountered, which would encumber our progress and only those with courage, stamina, and the ability to grasp opportunities extended would survive. With no supposedly wiser, older seafarers to advise us, and aware of the fact that unity displays strength, we immediately set about to convert our somewhat perplexed crew into a well-organized group of seamen. This was accomplished by electing a governing body and Dr. Theodore Engel as our Class Skipper. President Manning B. Smith Vice-President ... ................... Irving Salsbury Treasurer ... Paul Quintavalle Recording Secretary Samuel Cohen Corresponding Secretary Mrs. Cohen Student Council Fred Peck Historian Herman Goldberg Sergeant-at-Arms Ned Yaffe Shortly after our Christmas shore leave, we set sail again upon a somewhat rougher sea. As time elapsed the going seemed to get more difficult. Storm clouds began to gather and our Skipper Dean Willoughby informed us of a severe winter storm which would last about two weeks. Since this was our first experience with mid-year exams, quite a number of us suffered from ''mal de mer. A few were lost at sea but the majority managed to survive. The calm which followed the storm was enjoyed by various social events which included the fraternity smokers, parties and initiations. What was more enjoyable was our annual formal dance held at the Crystal Ballroom of the Benjamin Franklin Hotel. This was one social event that served as a subject of conversation for quite awhile. Again storm warnings were received and according to weather reports this would be more severe than the one we first experienced. We prepared ourselves however and after it broke and final exams were over, we realized that our first port of call was reached. During our summer leave we wondered whether or not we would see our officers and shipmates in the fall, for we knew that only those who showed satisfactory results were qualified to continue the journey in the fall. We resumed our course on September 29, 1937. Many familiar faces were missing and those who had survived the first leg of the journey were swapping stories and recon-teurs of the past summer. We were proud to know that we had advanced to junior class seamen. A change was made in class officers resulting in President Manning B. Smith, Vice-President Irving Salsbury, Corresponding Secretary Sydney Cohen, Recording Secretary Harold Kosh-land. Treasurer Herman Goldberg, Sergeant-at-Arms George Ball, Student Council Paul Quintavalle, Historian Joseph A. Riccio. Close to the end of the fall social events, mid-year storm clouds again appeared. This squall was a bit more difficult to ride out due to the intervention of Anatomy Dissection. This to us was the most thrilling and exciting venture we had as yet undertaken. The next event of importance was our annual formal dance held February 18, 1938, at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. While this was a much anticipated affair, we of the Junior class, were really more enthusiastic about the advent of our initiation into the clinic. Again we received storm warnings. This v ould be the usual storm which preceded our summer leave. We knew the nature of the squall from past experience and also that we would again have to sever our friendships when we reached our second port of call, which would immediately follow. Having weathered severe storms and trying ordeals, our good ship was in dire need of repair, but upon returning in September 29. 1938, we found that we would have to continue our journey with the old ship and navigate the best we could.
