of our clinical medicine experience and every member of the class got to play doctor one afternoon a week, probably without fooling many of the patients. Also all of us will long remember the little black book sitting outside of the clinical anatomy laboratory. After final exams, there was still more work to be done. National Boards were fast approaching. Of course, many members of the class were already Spastic about Boards in the beginning of the year. After the great panic was over and all of our sophomore year behind us, we had a Class Picnic at Hank Bohlman ' s Estate, which was enjoyed by all that were able to attend. Now, as we are about to enter the last half of medical school, we as a class, would like to thank all those professors that taught us during the pre-Clinical years. Ron- I: Chong. L.: Handwerger.

Dr. Wisseman always kept us on the edges of our seats . . . partly because he could give real meaning to bugs and disease and partly because we were waiting for him to scratch his head and laugh at a particularly puzzling or droll fact . On parasitology, we met the threat of filariasis in the South Seas with several hours of psychotherapy . . . and about two wheelbar- rows per regiment. Ollie Eyler amused us with particular sugar reactions, specific colony morphology, compli- cated serology, and speculation on the various F ' s implicated in the spread of disease. Rosen- weig enthralled us with sterile lectures, while Myers, in covering the field of bacterial genetics. proved that non-sterility is a definite asset. The fungi were rapidly presented by Dr. Andy Smith whose comprehensive lectures and stories failed to adequately cover the spectrum of diseases caused by Cigaiettiim Asliiim. Most importantly, microbiology taught us the value of volunteer experimental research. The guinea pigs in this instance were of the species, homo sapiens. The project involved innumerable phlebotomies at regularly scheduled intervals. The vaccines were standard pre-examination potions which in more than one instance caused a considerable number of re-examinations. Microhwlogy Charles L. Wisseman, Jr., b.a., m.s., m.d.
