Dr Cireen tried to prove him wrong Sadly we realtled that Dorothy would never be the same altet ltyttlg to take a Seopacon home with her each night lllivstologv and pharmacology came to an end with Dr littles screams ringing in our ears. as they again applied the thumbscrews to him for giving concise. informative. well-outlined lectures. After a short-lived price war, we gave the rest ol our money to Purse-strings Parker and self-consciously carried our black bags ll'llO Physical Diagnosis Again we were reminded that the best things come in small packages and never have we learned so much. so last. from So lsittle. At the San we began to wonder if we would be picking Bill Herring off the floor after ever veni-puncture. The odor of Parisitology dr.lted away. the most delightful quarter ot our lour years came to an end. and everyone packed books or bottles. each to his own choice, and went to state boards. Feeling like Barber College graduates. we went on the wards accompanied by Ernie Leonard. a little old man named Smith. and a boy with a stethoscope around his neck called Nance. No one will likely forget the short but sensational career of Bob Vance. who should soon return as Dean. Completing our motley group was Sid- ney Martin. back from New York. fat httt not so sassy. Otis Thompson soon had his urst medical history ac- cepted bv the Book of the Month Club and the sports- man in Liverman survived. as many a squirrel continued to fall. Junior surgery proved an inspiration to us all. Under the tutorage of Mr. Deaton and Our Bobby we decided as a group to go into public health. Hudspeth. boy neurosurgeon. and Dr. Kildare Jones ran true to form. obviously needing little further medical education. Familiar figures around the wards were the reknowned cardiologists. Alopecia J. Peacock and C. Glenn Catheter . At Christmas time Rudlofl obviously mar' ried beneath herself. This event was followed by a furi' ous battle between gestation and graduation, During this year. you might have seen Keith limping off for his Public Law 16 physical. Jim Hunt lecturing with glasses in hand. and liable buying the last few editions still left in the bookstore. kVith ballgames in full force, Hooper was. as usual. just two jumps ahead of the Kefauver committee. with Lindsay C1et7en looking as if he had just turned him in. Many distinguished themselves in other hospitals during their quarters off. Not the least of these was cold-lingers McCollum. walt7ing ro suc- cess with some other body. Jim Ciet7en shone in anoth.r field, keeping a sprained VJDXVN female ankle under close clinical observation for some two to three weeks after injury. lklasscs ol obstetrical knowledge were absobed with hand on lundus and as we approached our millionth RBC. we knew ue were ready lor our Senior year. Mc- lintee now roused himxell. having clofecl oll m the middle ol a Biochem lecture. and kk'alt Thompson de- cided that after three years it was time to take a ten minute break. Roy lreeman and Al Parrish must have concluded that even il they couldn't cure the world they cottld at least populate it, Neuro-psychiatry became the most popular course in the curriculum, Consider testimonials like this sample 'l can get through medical school withottt bowing to Dr. Haunm, writes popular hlling station operator Bob Dennis. Delmar got permission from home to spend the night on Gb Sears learned to light photometers with the best. and Douglas seemed to be sttll growing on his 17th birtlitlav. On Pediatrics. we were overwhelmed with teaching. hardly knowing how to react to this interest in our edu' cation llller almost decided to call A A and Taylor left the Nurses Home early at least one night a week. kVe thottght John l..anier went a bit overboard in having his cartilage removed iust to pass c-rthopedtcs. lalan. that's real cra7y leggtng. Going into the final quarters. Leg l.ewis finally proved his eyesight was adequate. at least nuptially. 'Coverboyw Grtflin had little time for studies during this last year. Madame Taussau.l and Sam Goldwyn were eternally bothering the life out of him. Events occurring as they did about this time. we decided that Joe Barnes wasnit working as hard as we thought he was. Cassanova Kelly was still making his nightly rounds between the Nurses Home and Salem College and many were using the last of their Cl Bill. but Rice was the only one who went through on Social Security, Internships were a problem, with many bruised knuck- les showing from shaking hands under desk tops. Homer. after one frightening experience in which he inadvert- ently wandered outside the city limits, decided to sign with City Hospital. Bill XVhere'm l gonna' intern Hunt hnally picked a hospital after his unsuccessful battle with the Navy. Roberts, too, was looking on graduation with mixed emotions. and for the price of one of the XVeir liamily's lab coats. wottld have gone back to the bophomore Class. ln retrospect, the past four years of our ventures in the entricies of medicine have been at times hectic for all concerned kk'e shall always view'with pride and re- spect our Alma Mater and its able and distinguished faculty.
