In Memoriam . . . Malcolm Lawrence Friedman 1935-1958 Malcolm ' s untimely passing in our sophomore year was the greatest loss suffered by this graduating class since our entry into medical school. It was also a loss to the medical profession which he so dearly loved. He was born the first of five children on Christmas Day in 1935. A graduate of the University of Mary- land in 1957, he matriculated with our class the fol- lowing September. Research was his first and fore- most love. It is ironic that his work involved the disease which was later to take his life — and the hopes and dreams of his family. By the middle of our fresh- man year he had established himself as one of the leaders of our class. His congeniality, sincerity, and ability impressed all who had the honor of knowing him. A year later Malcolm — friend, student, and son — graduated from life. His passing, and his life, will serve only to make us work all the harder and will be an inspiration to each of us. His passing is but a physical one, for in the hearts of all who knew him and in the hearts of his family, he will remain alive always. It is with great appreciation and with a deep sense of humility and honor, therefore, that we, his classmates and friends, offer this tribute to him.

J. Millard Tawes Governor, State of Maryland The State of Maryland is proud that its University again this year is turning out another group of young men and young women who are well-trained in the ancient and esteemed art of healing. In the words of a great English statesman, we know that the health of a people is the foundation upon which all their happiness and all their powers as a State depend. And therefore, we look upon you, as healers of the sick and succorers of the wounded, not only to enhance the future happiness of Americans but to add strength to our Nation. We have confidence that your training is good, because we know of the rich and proud history of the Medical School of the University of Maryland, which is the fifth oldest medical school in the United States and which established in 1815 the first facility in America devoted entirely to medical research. To each member of the Class of 1961, I send my personal and official congratulations and my best wishes for a successful and enjoyable career as members of the medical profession. 10
