Giberson, M.D. Seniors Hw Senior Directory Faculty and Administration Underclassmen Organizations Skull Staff -1970 Patrons and Advertising dedication Carson D. Schneck, M.D., Ph.D, Associate Professor of Anatomy It is apparent to any member of the audience that Carson Schneck loves to teach. He attacks the subject of the hour with enthusiasm and precision, creating in his students a basic understanding of certain com plex anatomical relationships. In time, the varied facets of the problem discussed fall into perspective and are absorbed by all present. Dr. Carson D. Schneck, a native of Allentown, Pennsylvania, is an alumnus of Muhlenberg College. He received his medical training at Temple University, graduating with high honors in 1959. After a year's rotating internship at Frankford Hospital, he returned to Temple to pursue a career in Anatomy. He added the rank of Ph.D. to his list of honors (1965) for his research on the development of the knee and ankle joints in rabbits. He and his wife, Freida, have been married for the past fourteen years, and they have two lovely daughters — Deborah, age ten, and Stephanie, age eight. The Schnecks currently reside outside Quakertown, Pennsylvania, in a home designed by Dr. Schneck himself. Dr. Schneck's involvement in education encompasses all aspects of medical training. As freshmen and juniors, we were thankful for his clinical approach to what could have been just pure anatomic detail. Our teacher's time, however, was shared with residents from nearly every clinical field, teaching various courses in Anatomy which he himself originated. Currently he is an active member of the Curriculum Committee, appointed to design methods of medical education for the future. What time remains to him is spent performing anatomical research. For his devotion and his genuine desire to teach us well, the Class of 1970 proudly dedicates its yearbook to Carson D. Schneck, M.D., Ph.D. our history of the class of 1970 And so they came. The products of many different environments, the prides of undergraduate colleges all across the nation, the physicians of tomorrow . . . they came. They came with their hopes, their fears, their dreams, and their drives. They came from around the world and around the corner, from down South and from down the street. They were young; they were tough; they were scared stiff! They began their stay at Temple with four calming days of Orientation. Picture the typical Freshman. Phi D. E. screamed into one ear; Phi Chi screamed into the other. Phi Rho told them that their house really wasn't that far away; Phi Bet., with its castle-like house, swore it would never fold; A.K.K. joined the others in glorifying the virtues of fraternalism. The upperclass- men told them that they didn't really need an embry ology book; Dr. Huber and the other anatomists swore that they did. Then the lines began — there were lines for registration, for buying books and white coats, for chest X-rays, photographs, Tine® tests, and bone boxes. They thought they were busy; but Med. School hadn't even started yet. That first day—September 6,1966 Charlie Alfano, Dan Bethem, and Lee Barnes register as freshmen at Temple WA-SAMA's busy rush campaign The National Boards weren't this tough! I ! Ned's mug shot You could tell that they were Freshmen on Monday morning because of the pride they showed in their new white coats; you could tell that they were Fresh men on Monday afternoon because of the Anatomy lab stench that exuded from their bodies. All except Mitch, whom you could tell at any time, because of the gold buttons and the green lapels on his white jacket. They settled into their daily Anatomy routine. Chief of the department and king of the "S's", "X's", and "U's", was John Franklin Huber, M.D., Ph.D, and close friend of Frank Netter. Using every means available to aid the class's comprehension of Anatomy, "Daddy" Huber tried TV, 3D, videotapes, and large group pres entations. They came; they listened; they tried; but there was no way that they could ever remember all those bronchopulmonary segments. However, they did retain the basic anatomical concepts: da head bone's connected to da neck bone, da neck bone's connected to da shoulder bone, etc. The tedium of Gross lecture was broken only by the tedium of the Gross lab. Dissection proceeded with some rules not included in the official dissection guide: "If you pulled on a structure and it broke, it was an artery; if it didn't break, it was a nerve; and if you couldn't find it, it would be on the next practical exam." Wmmmmmmm Embryology gave them an exercise in dexterity. Besides watching the blackboard and listening to Dr. Troyer, they had to choose the right colored pencil for the right germ layer, squeeze the label in with a suitable pen, underline the printed notes, and supplement them with meaningful additions. It was like trying to do the Cha-Cha on ice skates! Histology was a rerun for some and a bewilder ment for others. It was in Histology that they were introduced to the crucial decisions that they would be forced to make in managing some of their most critically ill patients: terminal ileum or proximal The Great Pumpkin arrives during Dr. Troyer's Histo. lecture colon?, parotid gland or pancreas?, pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium with goblet cells or simple columnar epithelium with brush border and fat droplets??? And to add to their hysteria, the dy namic duo of Bates and Troyer provided the Great Pumpkin, apple cider, and 400 color slides of Bubbles LaBust. The Histo. lab «—» Sg*eua, Christmas came and Histo. went. January started the "Year of the Obex"—Neuroanatomy. They had traced the various long tracts up toward the thal amus since September, wondering where they were all going to, and if it would be worth all that study to get there. Chapter 4 of Dr. Treux's tome brought tears to their eyes and caused fervent reading of that little yellow unofficial Neuro. text. And trivial CNS tidbits like the Nucleus of Darkschewitsch, the indusium griseum, and the H field of Forel became all important during the Neuro. tests (taken on browned brain sections because one of their num ber, in a mania over finally recognizing something on one of them, forgot to preserve them). In sum mary, it seemed cruel and inhuman at the time to force them to learn all of Neuro. in only 25 days. Looking back on it, though, they can be thankful it wasn't 26. A barrage of tests and a flurry of practicals signalled the end of Anatomy—time for them to bury their lab coats, bronze their Huber probes, and take their rubber brains out of the bathtub. anatomy Christmas party—1966 ODE TO THE CLASS OF 1970 At this time of the year, you've had mixed emotions About finishing Histo., with an eye toward promotions While a seasonal excitement is grasping the nation In anticipation of the events of Christmas vacation.

Robert Troyer, Ph.D Unnecessarily tight scheduling spared them the problem of planning leisure activities for a long mid- semester break; after barely 48 hours of "hitting the bottle", they met the sobriety of Biochemistry and the precision of Physiology head-on. Dr. Hamilton, who was both alive and head of the Biochem. department, lectured to them first and most often. Speaking in his own inimitable way, he fre quently exercised a peculiar effect on their reticular activating systems. When not lecturing, the professor could always be found busily taking notes of the day's lecture in the back of the room. After all those years, didn't he know it yet? Bill Ginsburg WITH HAIR! ! ! Room 316—Home of the Biochem. and Physio, lectures * Biochemistry was filled with Norman and the roulette wheel centrifuge, the bomb calorimeter a la Cilley, Henderson and Hasselbalch, chondroitin sul fate A, and the number of calories in a litchi nut. Lenny Lipid synthesized the fats for Dr. Pieringer to metabolize, "Sugar Bob" Campo tried hard to get their minds cluttered with those indispensable Haworth formulas, and Dr. Baldridge displayed some of his protean talents. Biochemistry lab proved at least as exciting as Biochem. lecture. For some, this lab meant precision experiments and unparalleled scientific adventure. For others, it meant carrying jugs of urine in 90 degree heat, Folin-Wu tubes, innumerable Kjeldahl determinations, and performing archaic cookbook experiments with medieval equipment. For most, though, Biochem. lab consisted of going there, tak ing out their Bunsen burners, lighting them, and then leaving. Norman Down the hall bands of physiologists were trying to vitalize and mechanize the formulas and com pounds of biochemistry. Dr. Oppenheimer, head of the department and owner of the longest recorded case of the "blahs", somehow managed to escape eyestrain, even though he diligently and meticulously checked and signed each lab manual at every test. Odd how he had 16 different ways of writing his signature! Other lectures featured that British rock group "A. Finck and the Cochlear Microphonics," Dr. Levitt in an impressive display of speed reading, and Dr. Wiedeman expounding on the three "B's"— bats, bourbon, and barf. Pressed into service for the The class works busily during a typical Biochem. lab first time was a note-taking system, organized by a small group of insomniacs who could endure the dullest lectures and write to tell about it. No more was the class shackled to its lecture notebooks. Now they were free to sit back and listen. And listen they FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS (left to right): Treasurer E.

The bright spot in the semester was Physio, lab. Besides pithing frogs and cannulating dog's ureters, here they got their first look at several aspects of clinical medicine, such as taking BP's and reading EKG's. It was easy to tell the future surgeons—they became the authoritarians of each group. It was also easy to tell the future psychiatrists—they be came "recorders". A futile attempt was made to correlate the dis ciplines of Biochem. and Physiology, but the success at correlation, it seemed, came only in the simul taneous scheduling of quizzes and tests. The only cultural relief in the entire year's technical overload came in Dr. Fred Rogers' History of Medicine course. The first year ended. Many of the class questioned whether they had wanted medicine so much as to make the first year's strain worth the effort. In September of 1967, 137 veterans returned from a two month's leave of rest and relaxation to begin another year. All except Beggs, who had decided that a career as an aluminum siding salesman was more profitable and a helluva lot easier than becom ing a doctor. This was the year, they had been told, that they were to get their first real glimpse into what medi cine was really all about. This was the year when they were going to learn all about disease and how to cure it. It was also a fresh start—none of last year's mistakes. They were going to keep up with the reading. They weren't going to cut labs or sleep in lectures. It was a chance to make new impres sions. Filled with this feeling of renewed purpose, they entered Room 316 again to begin Pathology. But they barely had a chance to get comfortable in their seats when in walked "the Chief"—one Ernest Aegerter—who calmly informed them that he was disappointed that they had not yet mastered the first chapter of Robbins. Behind fifty pages on the first day!!! Yet, they had the rest of the semester to get caught up—or so they thought. Reading Robbins was like reading a cookbook. There were nutmeg livers, bread and butter peri- carditides, chocolate cysts of the ovary, Swiss cheese endometria, cafe-au-Iait spots, and maple syrup urines. Unfortunately, the Chief was no Chef Boy-ar-Dee; But Path, did have its high points: There was Proctor Child, fresh from the AFIP, who There was Gus Peale, the mild-mannered Super conducted the CPC's, and whose slide collection— man of Pathology. His lectures were a note-taker's while maybe not quite up to Dr. Bates'—was prob dream—clear, concise, organized. His helpful hints, ably a little more practical.

Maybe this explains why Dr. Helwig—Dean of Dermal Pathology of the World—was forced to call nineteen names before he found a student present to take his oral quiz. The morgue—the pathologist's lab—was run by the renowned Dr. Raymond, author of the award- winning manuscript, "The Pituitary as an Income Supplement." Here students were exposed to a whole series of noxious sensations which over powered the brilliant expositions of even the most dynamic pathologists. The processes of disease were laid before them; it was really staggering. In fact, it was so staggering that after a few brief visits, they welcomed the "No Autopsy Today" sign on the second floor bulletin board. Pathology tests taught them not to guess, as many people found out when they lost 30 points on a 15 point section. Pathology also taught them not to look up back tests, for even though the questions were the same, the answers were often quite different. Afternoons that semester were spent with Earle Spaulding and his cast of 106. Microbiology was leisurely run; time was no object. But the class got a bit "rammy" when it took "Eloquent Earle" twelve full hours to deliver his introductory remarks. Time was no object in Micro, lab either, where one full week was spent learning the useless (to M.D.'s) art of streaking plates and counting colonies, three full hours were devoted to the darkfield exam of two pathetic spirochetes, and one complete lab con sisted of applying a Tine® test to their partner's forearm. But hidden among this trivia were important facts: namely, that typhoid bacilli injected into mice can really make them sick, and that gargling with Old Grandad was more germicidal than with Lis- terine (and tastier, too). The height of microbio logical trivia, though, was found in the Micro, tests— page after page of tricky true's and false's based on obscure epidemics of exotic diseases in far-away places. There was much talk of notes and the merits of By the time the second semester of the second rerunning the note-taking system.

In keep ing with this illustrious tradition, President Marv decided to hold their affair in the resplendent locker room of the Philadelphia Athletic Club. Music for the evening was provided by Corky and the Spirochetes. Needless to say, a grand time was had by all. Dr. Morton Klein receives the Golden Apple Award for our sopho more year from Dean Bucher Meanwhile, back at the ranch, studies continued. Preventive Medicine, Pediatrics, and Surgery all had one thing in common—they all began with a "p" or an s . Biostatistics was a welcomed intrusion of math into the world of the medical sciences and was definitely two standard deviations above the mean. Led by Dr. Stanley Schor (who definitely was no chi square), they learned that there was more to statistics than 36-26-36. Physical Diagnosis was the course which was to teach them how to do all those neat doctorly things like how to put a stethoscope in their ears, how to use the ophthalmoscope without shining the light in their own eyes, how to percuss their pleximeters with their plexors, and how to elicit a gag reflex without making the patient vomit on them. (If rusty, may we refer you to Dr. Jake Zatuchni's little yellow Bible?) The JYEC—Junior Year Evaluating Committee— was formed late in the semester by a small group of students who wished to represent the class and help the faculty in improving their upcoming third year. Many meetings, often with faculty members, were held; many hours were spent discussing the errors of the past and the goals for the future. Students and faculty agreed that lecture schedules should be dis tributed in advance, that prepared notes and bibliog raphies were essential, that small group presenta tions would be held whenever possible, and that student-faculty rapport would be greatly improved. It looked really promising—but, in the end, only the JYEC members had the courtesy to show up regu larly for the junior lecture series, even though they had to take their own notes for the dissertations, SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS (left to right): Student Council Rep. J. LeBow, Secretary P. Coker, Vice President J. Connell, which were often just as dull and just as identical President M. Goldberg, Treasurer E. Kane as those of previous years. As trees blossomed and grass greened and all the other young men's fancies turned to thoughts of sex, the unfortunate 137 were occupied with more earthy thoughts. The National Boards—that legen dary two-day marathon that they had been warned of and tutored for—was upon them. Probably the hardest part of preparing for the Boards was filling out the application. A recent photograph was re quired, as was a sworn affidavit attesting to the student's moral fibre and political affiliation. The final approval was supplied by the great Temple seal, affixed by Dean Harr. But their troubles were only beginning. When they entered the testing room, each person was assigned a seat number, test booklet number, pencil number, and number which determined the order in which they would get up and go to the "pottie". They had never seen such regimentation! After about an hour of explanation of how to break the seal of their test booklets with the eraser ends of their pencils, they were permitted to proceed. It soon became apparent that the test was not devised as a means of ascer taining how much they knew, but rather how good their endurance was. After spending the first hour of each test struggling valiantly to decipher the directions and put a I if A was true, a II if A and B Our kids invade Pediatrics Dr. Vaughan tests Patrick McGuckin, age 5 were true but not related, or a III if A and B were both true and related but not relevant, most reverted back to the old system of merely filling in the blanks in a sequence which was most likely to fit the pat tern that the computer grading the test was going to follow. Using this approach, the rest of the Boards passed rather painlessly, marking the end of the beginning of their medical careers. But, to some, they were more like the beginning of the end. They came back to Temple at the beginning of the junior year full of apprehension and anticipation. This was it, folks!!! No more spending eight hours a day in the third floor classroom listening to interm inable, theoretical lectures. This was the moment they had awaited for so many years. This was patient contact. They began by spending eight hours a day for two weeks in the third floor classroom listening to interm inable, theoretical Gl lectures, made tolerable only by the Lorber-Caswell debates, which raged every afternoon as to whether one treats an ulcer patient with milk or gastric resection. They went home every night and polished their stethoscopes . . . and waited. Bill Ginsburg WITHOUT HAIR! ! !

They could be found at St. Christopher's Pediatric service, about twenty blocks to the south and east of the rest of the Temple campus. In this lofty en vironment they found academic medicine at its very best. Here was a congregation of world-renowned leaders in the field of Pediatrics—Kirkpatrick, Di- George, Huang, Smith, and, of course, Nelson and Vaughan, authors of THE textbook. The amazing feature of all these people was that they took the juniors seriously and loved to teach. There were teaching conferences at 8 A.M. (when it was too early for the students to concentrate), at noon (when the students were too hungry to concentrate), and at 4 P.M. (when the students were too tired to concen trate). There were rounds every morning, often conducted by Dr. Vaughan himself. The students could be seen straining to catch Dr. Vaughan's words, not because they were so impressive, but because he refused to speak above five decibels. Just when Dr. Vaughan was about to drop a real "pearl"—the difference between bronchiolitis and asthma—a brass band complete with drums and cymbals would appear a few feet down the hall play ing "Dixie" at 100 decibels. This ensemble passed between the students and Dr. Vaughan—who, un perturbed, was still talking. Next came about a hun dred supposedly sick kids dressed in Hallowe'en costumes; many of them were Dr. Huang's cystics, pushing their gaily decorated IV poles filled with Carbenicillin® in front of them. Others flew past in wheelchairs, their full leg casts protruding like bat tering rams. A four year old girl paraded past, smil ing shyly at one of the medical students; he winked at her, and she started walking faster, giggling. Another child, a burn patient with both arms wrapped in gauze, paraded past; the students began to think about the ravages of the environment on these kids —battered children, emotionally deprived children, nutritionally deprived children, children who eat lead paint, children who eat St. Joseph's Aspirin, children who play with matches. The students look up and see the end of the parade, the adults—mothers who stayed overnight with their children, aides who played with the chil dren, and nurses who give their all and then more for their young patients. The only thing that the students failed to realize was that Dr. Vaughan had moved rounds further down the hall. They rejoined the group, but by now Dr. Vaughan was discussing the number of eosinophils in the nasal secretions of patients with allergic rhinitis. The juniors could not appreciate Dr. Vaughan's "pearls". They had not yet learned to appreciate the difference between bronchiolitis and asthma. But they did learn to appreciate children. One couid easily recognize the students on Psy chiatry. They were dressed in sports coats, wore Ban-the-Bomb buttons, and foulmouthed more often than usual. They appeared well rested (sometimes even tanned, although it was the middle of winter). Psychiatry was centered in the fifth floor of the Clinic Building; in the back room was a classic piece of psychiatric equipment—a one way mirror. Through this looking glass the students could observe one of their number conversing with a "neurotic" patient. Since the "doctor" and the "patient" were both dressed in civies, it was sometimes difficult to tell the two apart. It would have been impossible except for one clue—the "doctor" was the one who looked nervous!!! He had a right to be, for on the other side of the mirror sat about twenty of his peers drinking coffee to stay awake and about two or three psychiatrists chain-smoking to stay sane. One of the three psy chiatrists would provide a running commentary, usually concerning the student interviewer's sexual inadequacies. After a while it became apparent that the student was beginning to change his patient from neurotic to psychotic; the attending psychiatrist *** £32 would proceed to stamp out his fourteenth cigarette HEAL and call the student on the phone. The audience S» was then treated to the voyeuristic thrill of observing ORiSiS Ci both sides of the conversation—during which the student was informed that the real "shrink" would be in to help him out in two minutes. Two minutes later there was a knock on the door; despite the fact that the student was anxiously await ing help, he always tried to act surprised: "Wow! Imagine meeting you here, Dr. Freud!" The "shrink" would then enter the "fishbowl" and would always manage to rectify the whole botched- up interview in the time remaining in the patient's hour. Afterwards, a discussion session was held, dur ing which either Dr. Hoffman or Dr. Haughey would unabashedly confess that they too used to dream of panty hose while masturbating, but that they were cured by Freudian analysis. (Perhaps now they dream of their analysts while masturbating.) One day per week was spent either at the Eastern Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute (EPPI) or on 5PP, Temple University Hospital's inpatient psychiatric facility. Here the students became involved in some of the most fascinating conversations of their lives, often centering around little green men, plots against the patient's life, or spiritual visions. The patient would unquestioningly serially subtract seven's, in terpret proverbs, or memorize sentences; but when challenged with, "Who's the president of the United But also at the Community Health Center, they States?", the patient usually replied: observed the paranoia of the people working there. "You think I'm crazy, don't you?"

The medical service at Temple University Hospital afforded the students the unique opportunity to as sume direct responsibility for their patients. They did the initial H. & P.'s, only to find out later that they had neglected to ask the patient his age. They listed the differential diagnoses, only to find out later that they had neglected the most obvious (to the resi dent) diagnoses. They wrote the admitting orders, only to find out later that they had neglected to feed their patients. And they spent long hours on the Ring—"Mrs. G just signed herself out."

If one person dominated the third year, if one per son must be singled out as THE CHIEF — that person was Dr. Sol Sherry. Despite the fact that he presented himself only on the medical floors, his presence per meated everywhere — even to the affiliated hospitals and the dark, dreary corners of OB-GYN. Sol Sherry was the focus of what was to most the high point of the third year — that curious phenomenon known as Professor's Rounds. Medicine at Temple centered around these weekly events, and they were produced with the elaborate staging of a Broadway production. Preparation started a week in advance with the selec tion of a patient with a suitably exotic disease in order not to insult the Chief's intellect with petty cases (or perhaps, to allow the students and house staff to know more about the entity than the Chief). For a week references were scoured, digested, and debated. The history was reviewed; the physical exam, was repeated; the script was continuously re-written. As D-day approached, the props were arranged — lab data neatly tabulated on the black board, pathology specimens carefully focused under the microscope. Elaborate cueing systems were devised so that the resident would know when the student was running out of steam. A last minute dress rehearsal was held at 8:00 A.M. on the morning of the show. Palms became sweaty; all became nerv ously silent. And then — the moment of truth — OPENING NIGHT — HE is on the floor. Slowly, tenu ously, the student stuttered: "Mr. Peutz-Jegher, allow me to present you to Dr. Sherry — the CHIEF of our service. This is the first Temple admission for Mr. . . ." In an hour the show was over. The star-and-critic rolled into one had disappeared as mysteriously as he had come. He had nodded a few times, smiled THE CHIEF once, said little. The exhausted junior student was left wondering if the whole show had really happened. p to lederle labs Anna May and Clair Weaver Shama eats and Shama drinks Helene and Richie Polin Barbara and Charlie Kimelman kresge science hall opens Mr. Jay A.

It is pref physicians. They left the junior year as novices; in only three weeks they came back changed—drastically changed. One could easily spot the Seniors — they didn't know more medicine, they still sucked their thumbs, their asses still dragged — but they wore WHITE PANTS. Freedom was theirs — they could take what they wanted wherever they wanted with whom they wanted for however long they wanted. Suddenly the Dean became aware that Pediatrics was taught best in Hawaii, that London was the Medical Mecca of the world, that Israel offered a fine Community Medicine program, and that Norway was a leader in Hematology. Also the alphabet was dead. For the first time a fellow whose name began with a "B" could be paired up with a "V". It was amazing for them to discover people in their own class whom they never knew existed before. Much planning went into each senior's schedule of electives — the student's deciphering a 73 page offer ing of electives and Elaine Neroni's single-handed deciphering of 137 scribbled, late elective lists with explicit orders as to when, how, where, and why each student had to be treated like a special case. Yet, ironically, these same electives were overshadowed by the real work of the senior year. Seniors could be heard questioning each other, "Where'ya gonna intern at?", "Do they work every other night in Sioux Falls, South Dakota?", "Do they have an IV team in Chattanooga?", "How's the interview at Kalamazoo General?". They were wined and dined and written to often by a whole cordon of hungry hospitals throughout the country. They spent countless amounts of time and money touring the country in search of the ideal program and then spent even more time discussing their findings Formal shots are taken for SKULL 1970 with classmates.

The student then proceeded to write out the same H. and P., but now on a yellow piece of paper, padding his impressions with pseudopatho- physiologic explanations over which the naive juniors subsequently would ponder.

These courses were sched uled to coincide with attending rounds, peak operative schedules, electives at the Mayo Clinic, and lunch hour. Needless to say, they weren't overcrowded.

The answers received from the 80% who replied are somewhat reassuring, but sometimes disconcerting. The typical member of the Class of 1970, as re vealed by our sample, is married (75%), 25-26 years old (90%), with no children (95%), and has never been in the military. He feels that Temple prepared him adequately to function as a doctor (80%) and that he did get to know the faculty well (75%). He overwhelmingly approves of the new curriculum with its elective scheduling (90%) and thinks that student evaluations are important to the success of this new way of teaching. (One member replied that medical school was "finally treating medical students like humans.") Eighty percent felt that their medical education was relevant. In fact, some stated that they felt "more mature" and "sensitive to patient's needs." But there were also complaints that their education "narrowed their horizons" and hindered their social growth.

Wee President for Health Sciences TEMPLE UNIVERSITY HEALTH SCIENCES CENTER SCHOOL OF MEDICINE PHILADELPHIA. PENNSYLVANIA 19140 OFFICE OF THE DEAN February 10, 1970 To the Class of 1970: You are successfully launched for the start of a journey which is uncharted and which, when completed, will be recorded as your professional career. In all probability, the most difficult step in making this journey will prove to have been gaining entrance to medical school. You have worked hard and will continue to do so. The decisions you must make will be increasingly more difficult and more dependent upon you as individuals. Commencement marks the end of a period of intensive study and certifies that you are prepared for the responsibilities inherent in a medical career. I hope you will never stop being students. We have all had the mixed blessing of living in the midst of a social and scientific revolution. While frustrating at times, the challenging opportunities are innumerable. Many of us have come to believe that the only certainty is change. The recent development of a national policy establishing optimum health care as the right of all people has presented multiple new problems which will face the physicians of tomorrow. It is certain that the system of today is not the answer. It is my hope that the education you have received will enable you to define the everchanging pro blems and appropriately resolve the new issues. The challenge of this uncharted search for a happier relationship between humans and their environment should be a greater stimulus to you as the physicians and students of tomorrow. We have done our best as a school and faculty within the existing limitations to help you prepare for the next step. We are confident that you will do well and expect each and every one of you to make your individual contributions to this greater goal as we work together in seeking solutions. Welcome aboard and best wishes. Sincerely yours, William P. Barba, II, M.D. Acting Dean WPB:vh Robert M. Bucher, M.D., F.A.C.S. Former Dean—School of Medicine James B. Donaldson, M.D., F.A.C.P.

Hoberman, "Hobie" to his many friends, at Temple University Hospital on November 17, 1969, removed a colorful personality, dynamic teacher and loyal worker from the Temple scene. A native of Philadelphia, he com pleted premedical studies at the University of Pennsyl vania, graduated from the Jefferson Medical College in 1929, and interned at Temple University during the following year. The years 1930-32 were spent as the first resident in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Temple, the Department then being headed by Dr. Jesse O. Arnold. Named an Instructor in 1932, Dr. Hoberman rose to the rank of Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, serving also with Drs. Thaddeus L. Montgomery, J. Robert Willson and Russell R. deAlvarez during their chiefships. Dr. Hoberman took an active part in the teaching of medical and nursing students and house staff, being particularly expert in gynecologic pathology. In 1968 he received a Christian R. and Mary Lindback Founda tion Award for Distinguished Teaching at Temple. He was a Diplomate of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and a member of the American Society of Abdominal Surgeons. He was also a member of the Associate Staff at the Philadelphia General Hospital and the Albert Einstein Medical Center, Northern Division. Having served at Temple for forty years, "Hobie" is fondly recalled by two generations of medical and nursing graduates and staff. He won the respect and affection of many people — patients, pupils and col leagues. Their condolence goes to his family on its great loss. A memorial service, conducted by Rabbi Abraham J. Levy, was held at the lllman Chapel of Temple University Hospital on November 20, 1969. Abbott, David M., Jr. Murtagh, Frederick R. Abramson, John Ntaba, HetherwickM. Amsbaugh, Glenn A.

Bacon told me the following story late on a Friday afternoon while resting between opera tions. He and three classmates were in a bar, drink ing while preparing some of the pages for a yearbook for their class—the first separate yearbook in the history of Temple University School of Medicine—a book which was until then nameless. On a high shelf he noticed a candle burning inside a skull which was old and partially broken. A few months later the first SKULL was distributed. That was in 1925—and today, after 46 editions, the SKULL is still going strong. The current volume may Joe Fassl look different from Dr. Bacon's, but its goal remains the same—to provide each class with a remembrance Photography Editor of its medical school days and to record the continu ing history of the school. The SKULL has grown now to some 320 pages. It took from late January, 1969, to late March, 1970, to compile, and an additional six weeks to print and bind. The bulk of the work was done by a small group of amateurs—medical students who had never undertaken anything similar before— in time that would have otherwise been spent study ing, relaxing, or enjoying their families. There was also the aid of some professional artists and photog raphers who looked over our shoulders to make sure we didn't violate any of the rules of graphics and design. The quality of any yearbook is always proportional to the quality of its pictures. Full-color photographs were restored to the SKULL for the first time since 1966, and we are indebted to Otto Lehmann and Bill Verzyl of the Department of Medical Communications for their time and high quality color shots. Zamsky studios again served Temple this year and supplied formal photos of the seniors with their traditionally consistent clarity. All the remaining pictures, includ ing a new photograph for almost every faculty mem ber and a candid shot of every senior, were supplied by our photography staff, and each print was person ally OKed for publication by our able photography editor, Joe Fassl. This fine job is expressed better by their pictures than by my words. The class history section was expanded to forty pages, allowing for a more detailed account of the events that filled the past four years. Weekly meetings for two full months were necessary to complete the written history to the satisfaction of our demanding literary staff. And, luckily, there was always the com forting Dr. Fred Rogers to turn to for help with rough spots in our copy. To Bob Clough, goes our gratitude for skilled han dling of layout and illustrations. Bob, a professional artist and Assistant Director of the Department of Jay Markowitz Medical Communications by day, has helped the stu Business Manager dents of Temple silently by donating many hours of Richie Harris his time and effort to the past three editions of the Literary Co-Editor SKULL, and one has only to glance at them to notice the effect he has had in making the SKULL a truly professional volume. Stan Saltzman, our faculty adviser, and his Medical Communications team— especially Lynne, Lana, Jackie, Henry, John, and Steve Alper—afforded assistance with technical de tails too numerous to mention. Bob Holland and Dor othy Mewha of Public Relations opened their files and resources to us. Ginny Harr and Elaine Neroni were always glad to do some typing or help in any way that they could. And Charlie Thompson gave the SKULL a home—an office with ample room and equipment, fully operational for the first time this year. The copy was set in the Helvetica type face, sup plied efficiently by Bill Pinto and the Central Type setting Company. And the men of the Baum Printing House—especially Rube, Jerry, Bud, and Rocco— were always eager to add their advice, and they seemed to be as enthusiastic about the project's success as we were. Their performance is virtually perfect, not a crooked line or picture out of place. \ The final tribute goes to Alan Giberson, our art and layout editor, who designed every page of the book from the rough ideas, pictures, and copy that accumu lated. I spent over a year working closely with him, Alan Stern and I grew to respect his talent and friendship. Cer Literary Co-Editor tainly this book is as much or more his than anyone else's. Thus, the SKULL 1970 reflects the interest and tal ents of many hands and minds. It is our attempt at expressing what the past four years has meant to the Class of 1970 as physicians-in-training. We hope that you enjoy it. ~~>. f\ Editor-in-Chief Charlie Kimelman Reggie McCoy Cleve Dawson literary staff Len Greenbaum Phyllis Barson Charlie Alfano Ken Schwartz Bill Herring | department of medical communications and..

The visionary and dedicated work of the founder, Russell H. Conwell, alone led to the founding and early growth of Temple University. When a small group requested his help in securing an education, Russell H. Conwell embarked on the purposeful course of work and self-sacrifice that led to the great university of today. His words and deeds through the years serve still as guideposts of Temple University. Many fields of study lead to the businesses and professions of our country. Temple University has contributed to these with distinction, and with the realiza tion that a university is great only as its graduates are great. The obligations of a university to its students, the community and the nation are many, and Temple University strives always to fulfill these obligations. The well-trained, conscientious student of Temple University may go forth confident of his ability to meet the challenges of his chosen career. Temple University congratulates the men and women of this graduating class. ©Ijp Altnrma Hospital THE LARGEST TEACHING CENTER IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA ALTOONA, PA.
