Thomas Edward Davis The year 1929 saw Tom appear in New York City, later to migrate through Tenafly, New Jersey, to Cumberland, Maryland in 1941. Stealing a sheepskin from Washington and Lee in 1951, he then came to Bressler ' s halls. Loyal to Nu Sig where spent three years, he took his fourth year treading the floors as extern at Union Memorial. Vacations have been occupied as railroad worker, camp counselor and extern at Peninsula General. Stead- fastly single for a time, Tom is now on the verge of the marital state with Claire, nurse at University, where he plans to intern and follow up with training in internal medicine. Donald Howard Dembo Appearing on the Baltimore scene in 1931, Don went through Johns Hopkins University before joining the ranks at the Uni- versity of Maryland. In August, 1952, he deserted the single state and married Libby. Known for his worthy contributions to any medical discussion, he spent one summer as a Psychiatry fellow and another as medical extern at University Hospital. After finishing the rigors of medical school, this loyal son of Phi Delta Epsilon looks forward to internal medicine and a long line of little Dembos. Henry Augnst Diederichs Hank made his debut in 1929 in Belleville, Illinois, soon going to Fairborn, Ohio, to hang his hat. Wittenberg College gave him his pre-med training and A. B. degree.

Mary Viola Daly On the distaff side of our class we have Mary, born in Indiana, now hailing from Silver Springs, Maryland. Educational distinc- tion has been hers with scien ce degrees from American University and Iowa State College. Possessor of ready wit and a genuine sense of humor, she has been sophomore class secretary and ex- tern at Lutheran Hospital. After leaving the classrooms, wards, and clinics, Mary will follow her internship most likely in a career in her major field of medical interest — internal medicine. Theodore Alvin Danii A Baltimorean since a cold November morn in 1930, Ted has spent both undergraduate and medical school days at the Uni- versity of Maryland. Taking Horace Greeley ' s advice, he went West summers to work on a mosquito research project for the California Department of Public Health. Captured by the wonders of the Golden Gate, Ted hopes to intern out there and, after two years with Uncle Sam, to settle down to a general practice by the blue Pacific. John Joseph Darrell Owner of a golden-toned tenor voice to be heard at a moment ' s notice, a long experience in the Merchant Marine as Sparks — a radio operator, and a long blue Oldsmobile convertible, John — a life long Baltimore citizen — has carried his winning ways through Loyola and Maryland. Seen at all class affairs and Phi Bete parties with Mary Lou, his fiance, he is an addict of three piece combos playing at local bistros with whom he has been noted to sing a few numbers. Internship at Mercy and genera] practice lie ahead. 15

William Dvoriiie Taking his first bow in Baltimore in 1930, Bill swung up to Western Maryland to earn a degree in psychology. Between college and medical school he worked for a time as a private eye . Later summers have been spent as camp counselor and surgical extern at Sinai. Varied hobbies include weight lifting, lacrosse officiating, and being a Naturalist. Holding forth as sergeant-at-arms at Phi Delta Epsilon, Bill ' s future is still hush- hush but rumors have leaked out that Plastic Surgery holds his special interest. John Albert Engers, Jr. A challenger for pitch laurels is this Baltimore born George- town alumnus. Having spent eighteen glorious months as Navy radar technician, John decided the medical world was for him. In between golf and studies, he married Eleanor and is now Dad to two heirs — John III, and Judy. He lays claim to being the only unbiased Oriole fan in Baltimore and is frequently seen at the Stadium. A veteran of summer service in local hospital labs, John will intern in Baltimore but avers that plans beyond that are still to be decided. Joseph Chalice Eshelnian Sneaking into Hagerstown from Pennsylvania, roaring from there to Lombard and Greene, and gaining weight on the food of Medicine, Joe, solid citizen of Nu Sigma Nu, is a shining example of the relaxed attitude, the astute thinker, and shrewd card player. A devotee of the single life but susceptible to long-lashed bru- nettes, and known to his associates as Louie , he is one of the never-to-be-forgotten men of note of ' 55. Future plans consist of internship in a small hospital and general practice in a small town as country doctor. 17
