Thomas Bourne Turner, B.S., M.D. Dean. Johns Hopkins University SCHOOL OF MEDICINE Dr. Turner, you have been a sterling ex- ample to those who follow, of a man who has not only done outstanding microbiologi- cal research, but one who is a true scholar and educator. Early in his career. Dr. Bennett became associated with the late William S. Baer at the Johns Hopkins Medical School and Hospital. These two men were quite active in the then-new fields of Reconstructive Surgery and Rehabilitation. This expansion of Orthopedics was one of the lasting benefits of World War One and transformed it from a narrow specialty dealing chiefly with the crippled child to include the reconstruction of all manner of crippling injuries and dis- ease in adults. Dr. Bennett was at the fore- front of this movement and contributed much to the organization of services to crippled children in the State of Maryland. Under his leadership, regular orthopedic clinics were established throughout the state, staffed by leading surgeons. He developed the plan of coordination between the county clinics and the two children ' s hospitals in Baltimore (Kernan ' s and Children ' s Hos- pital School ) , whereby any child found to need treatment was immediately hospitalized, regardless of race, creed, or financial limita- tion. During this period of time, he was active as Associate Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at the Johns Hopkins Hospital until 1942, when he was appointed Adjunct Professor. This post was held by Dr. Bennett until his resignation in 1947. He has published num- erous monographs on Orthopedics. During George Eli Bennett, M.D., D.Sc.
