Belsky Eli Engel Eugene v. Leslie Frank J. Bolgan Howard Grossman Arthur W. Michalek This has been the twenty-sixth year of activity ot the Epsilon ot New York Chapter of Alpha Omega Alpha, national honorary medical society. The qualifications for membership to the society are based upon scholarship, but the conception has arisen that election to this society is not only a recognition ot accomplishment as a student, but also an insignia of both promise and expectancy of leadership in some phase of medicine after graduation. ln addition to holding regular monthly meetings at which the new members presented papers on topics ot current scientific interest, the society again this year sponsored a com- bined meeting with the Bultalo Academy of Medicine. We were honored in being able to present as the guest speaker Dr. Rene J. Dubos, ot Rockefeller Institute tor Medical Research. Dr. Dubos has become widely known and acclaimed in recent years tor his diligent research, particularly in the field of tuberculosis. The meeting was preceded by a banquet in honor of Dr. Dubos. Both the banquet and the meeting were very successful, and thoroughly enioyed by all who attended.
