There is a stir in the air down at Greene and Lombard. We refer not only to the construction of new buildings taking place, but also to the surge of progress in the spheres of medical education and research. We felt this as freshmen, for we were des- tined to become a part of it and proudly so. The one man most responsible for our having this privilege is our dean, William S. Stone. Doctor Stone came to the University of Maryland just four years ago, following a diversified, interesting and outstanding career in the United States Army. A few high- lights of his career include research in Tropical Diseases in the Panama Canal Zone, direction of the preventive medicine program in the Mediterranean Theatre during World War II, and administration of the U. S. Army Institute of Research at Walter Reed in Washington, D. C. His experience encompasses virtually every phase of medi- cine — clinical, pathological, educational, research and administrative. However, Doctor Stone is more than just a learned professional man. He is a true gentleman, a personification of dignity, honor and affability. It is in the spirit of knowing that our medical careers will necessarily reflect the high quality of training received here and the inspiration of men such as Doctor Stone, that we, the class of 1959, respectfully and appreciatively dedicate to him this yearbook.
