PHILADELPHIA COLLEGE OF OSTEOPATHY
48th and Spruce Streets PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA WE THINK, THEREFORE WE ARE OSTEOPATHIC OATH
I do hereby affirm my loyalty to the profession I am about to enter. I will be mindful always of my great responsi- bility to preserve the health and life of my patients, to retain their confidence and respect, both as a physician and a friend who will guard their secrets with scrupulous honor and fidelity, to perform faith- fully my professional duties, to employ only those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skills and ability, keep- ing in mind always nature's laws and the body's inherent capacity for recovery.
I will be ever vigilant in aiding the general wel- fare of the community, sustaining its laws and insti- tutions, not engaging in those practices which will in any way bring shame or discredit upon myself or my profession.
I will give no deadly drugs to any, though it be asked of me.
I will endeavor to work in accord with my col- leagues in a spirit of progressive cooperation and never by word or by act cast imputations upon them or their rightful practices.
I will look with respect and esteem upon all those who have taught me my art. To my college, I will be loyal and strive always for its best and for the interests of the students who will come after me. !
HIPPOCRATIC OATH I swear by Apollo the physician, and Aesculapius,
and Hygeia, and Panacea, and all the gods, and goddesses that according to my ability and judg- ment:
I will keep this oath and this stipulation — to reckon him who taught me this art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my substance with him,
and relieve his necessities if required to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own brothers
and to teach them this art if they shall wish to
learn it. Without fee or stipulation and that by precept, lecture, and every other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to disciples bound by a stipulation and oath. According to the law of medicine but to none other, I will follow the system of regime which, according to my ability and judgment, I consider. For the benefit of my patients and abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, I will give no deadly medicine to anyone if asked nor suggest any such counsel, and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to produce abortion. With purity and holiness I will pass my life and practice my art. I will not cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practitioners of this work. Into what- ever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and will abstain from every vol- untary act of mischief and corruption; and further from the seducton of females or males, or freemen and slaves. Whatever in connection with my pro- fessional practice or not in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of men, which ought not be spoken of abroad. I will not divulge as reckoning that all such should be kept secret. While I continue to keep oath unvio- lated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art respected by all men in all times
But should I tresjDass and violate this oath, may the reverse be my lot!
dedication The physician as we would know him is a man of many facets. Each in his own mind hohls those quaHties which are believed to exemplify the professional man. Some hold that to be a successful physician one must be well versed in nii-di- cine, display cool logic and exceptional diagnostic acumen. Others feel that to be an eternal student, ever searching for new ideas and methods is the key to greatness. It may be that a great deal of compensation in medicine comes from being a dedicated teacher, and seeing those whom you have helped to mold go off into the field of practice. In addition, many are
sure that the mark of a fine physician is his inter-relationships with his fellow man and his actions as a gentleman.
Who is to determine which of these qualities is most im-
portant, and for which we will strive? This is a debatable point.
There is, however, one point clear — that is that Dr. Edwin Cressman, to whom we dedicate this book, represents the highest example of all those qualities we have mentioned. He is a teacher, scholar, physician, and above all a gentleman in the highest sense of the word.
Our encounter, however brief, has enriched our stay at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy, and set an example that
we may well follow in the years to come. It is fitting for a man who has spent a great part of his time teaching, to be honored by his students. We your students. Dr. Cressman, have learned our lesson well, and to you we dedicate this 1961 Synapsis.
Dr. Edwin Cressman RECOGNITION
Four short years ago we encountered a cherubic, energetic resident who undertook the presentation of the fiehl of Internal Medicine. After the briefest of introductions be proceeded to teach us about the simplicities of cardiac catheterization.
So it was with our first meeting with Dr.
Gerald Scharf, and so it has continued to be during our four years of medical education. Dr. Scharf has endeavored to teach two things: clinical medicine and sound reasoning. In these endeavors he has become, to the Class of 1961, an example of what could be. Our meetings have been in the form of for- mal lectures, substitution for the missing teach- ers, and informal forays in hallways, in the library, or on the sidewalk. But no matter where the session has been we stop, listen and
take note, for it is impossible to say that Dr. Scharf lectured without teaching us something
new. Whether it be the simple or the esoteric,
the teaching point is made and impressed on our minds. Because of his untiring efforts in our be- half, we offer recognition to Dr. Gerald Scharf. As physicians at the gateway, we are caught up in the whirl of the Senior year, state board examinations, internships, and a hundred other problems. We the Class of 1961 would like to pause a moment and say, however uneloquently,
but always sincerely: Thanks Gerry . . . for everything.
GERALD SCHARF, D.O A.O.A. PRESIDENT
To the Graduating Class of 1961 of the Philadelphia Collcfie of Osteopathy
It is my earnest hope and desire that caeh and every member of the 1961 Class in some measure, large or small, make some contribution toward elevating the osteopathic profession in the total health care of the people of the United States whether it be in the field of education, research, or practice. Let each man humbly, yet with a true sense of pride and dignity, fulfill his full responsi- bility as a physician and be proud to be a D.O.
Roy J. Harvey, D.O. President American Osteopathic Association mm»>^ Mdministration 1 PRESIDENT
To the Members of the Class of 1961: With the completion of studies for the Degree of Doctor of Osteopathy, it is my privilege and pleasure to greet the members of the Graduating Class. \ou of the Class of 1961 have concluded your courses. You have worked hard, and some of you have made great personal sacrifices along with those of your families, in order to qualify as a physician. As you set forth in our profession, you will enter a heavily populated world in which the pyramiding demands for services might render elastic some of the standards of performance. There are certain callings in which no expansion, no inflation, no emergency extension of the need can properly invite less than the best performance. The art of healing is foremost among them. You belong to that special category of men and women to whose ministrations the health and lives of human beings is entrusted. For that reason, as your College President, I would like to remind you of your responsibilities. With the Degree of Doctor of Osteopathy and the accompanying Osteo- pathic oath, you are accepting the disciplines and ethics of thousands of healers who went before. You follow in the steps of great and dedicated men. In our world today, in this second year of the 1960's, there are some things that cannot vary. The basic sciences do not change: they may yield constantly new truths and through research present great wonders, especially in the fields of healing and promoting longevity among our people. But throughout these processes, the human body remains much the same as in Hippocrates' era. It must be treated with sure knowledge and great care, in the spirit of the understanding servant. That service is not measured by dollar signs. Finally, let me say that the rewards of the good and great physician cannot be counted by material evaluations. I know this may sound idealistic, but unless you all have dreams and ideals within you, I sincerely doubt you would be in this class. The dedicated D.O. is prepared in spirit as well as in healing knowledge. As such he knows the great responsibilities that go with our free- dom to learn, to accept that knowledge from others, and through them to become custodians of a precious right. Remember too that as the gates of opportunity beckon and open wider, so also increase the disciplines and the weight of duty that you, as good osteo- pathic physicians and patriotic Americans, owe to your profession and your fellow men. I congratulate the Class of 1961, and ask God's blessing on each one of you.
Frederic H. Barth, President :
DEAN
To the Members of the Class of 1961 You were admitted to the company of osteopathic physicians four aca- demic years ago. You are now about to receive your diplomas and to assume your full responsibilities. I am grateful for the opportunity of greeting you on this happy occasion. I congratulate you on your academic and clinical achieve- ments. 1 salute you as you undertake your careers as osteopathic physicians, and I look forward to observing your professional growth and advancement. My very best wishes to each of you. Sincerely yours, Sherwood R. Mercer Dean
—
MEMORIAM There is in each of us the charlatan, the entrepreneur, the bigot and the selfish, and we differ in these respects merely quantitatively. The truly great, the dedicated, the inspired amongst our niidsts possess only trace elements of these characteristics, and furtlier devote much of their energies in thoughts and deeds directed towards the expunging and quelling of such inherent traits whenever they might inately become manifest. Dr. Earl Riceman will be remembered as a truly great physician, inspired and dedicated. Charlatan? — Who amongst us was more intellectually honest than he; entrepreneur? Here he was a rank amateur; bigoted? — He abliored the concept and shrank from its ugliness; selfish? — He placed his family, friends, patients and students above all, for he was an emblem altruist. No one ever understood the student better, ever appreciated their ravenous academic yearnings more keenly, ever treated them with more professional and personal dignity than did Dr. Riceman. No wonder! For he was himself the eternal student. Medicine was his love, but his scope and spirit were kept lofty by a generous and wholesome interest in all sports. He was posessed of excep- tional professional versatility and he masterfully expressed these talents in his field of Oncology. Interested in a new syndrome? Perk up at a description of some esoteric disorder? Care to wrestle with a baffling CPC? Earl Riceman always was! Of such stuff was he made, and this is how he shall be remem- bered. We have suffered a great loss with his passing; the loss of an academic hero here at PCO. He would, however, not have taken kindly to our mourning him today, but rather, would be comforted in the vision of a perpetuation of his ideals, of his love for fellowship and for the quest for intellectual attain- ment and integrity. So shall he live on in our hearts and minds, forever! The Osteopathic profession suffered a great loss this past year, by the sudden death of Doctor James Madison Eaton, who was Chief of Staff of the Hospital of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy. Doctor Eaton's contrihu- tions to the art of Osteopathy and the science of Orthopedics were well known throughout the profession. During his career, Doctor Eaton had been an instructor in Anatomy, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and had most recently served as professor of Orthopedic Surgery. He had also been Chief Attending Surgeon, and a member of the board of directors of P.C.O. In this capacity he had given much of his time and energy toward the college's expansion program. Doctor Eaton's work in the field of Orthopedics is attested to by the great number of original papers published in various journals, and by the number of orthopedic surgeons he has helped train for certification. His record of achievement will remain, for many years, as a testimonial to his ability, and as a goal for which future generations may strive. ANATOMY

astc Sci ences The science of Anatomy, a basic component of the Osteopathic Armamentarium, comprises a major por- tion of a physician's education; for without a thorough knowledge and understanding of this science, the Heal- ing Arts could not exist.
The Freshman year of Gross Anatomy was divided between didactic and laboratory study. Cadaveric di- section was closely correlated with lectures by the Anat- omy Department under the supervision of Dr. Angus G. Cathie, Professor of the Department. Every struc- ture of the body was examined in detail, discussed, and
its inter-relationships stressed. The study was eas&d and enlivened by the museum prepared by Dr. Cathie and his associates. Microscopic anatomy also occupied a
prominent portion of the first year. This course is de- signed to teach developmental anatomy and normal cytologic morphology, preparative to the study of the abnormal in future courses. The structural inter-rela- tionships were further emphasized in Applied Anatomy, in the Junior year. This course dealt with the practi- cal aspects of anatomy combining this with the other basic sciences to broaden our diagnostic and therapeutic acumen. Angus Gordon Cathie D.O., M.Sc. Professor,

Pathos
Yes, Milt, that's the body. ^ Our first few days at P. CO. were one filled with mixed emotions. Were we more frightened of Anatomy or Chemistry? Each of us told the other that there was nothing to fear in chemistry. All the while, in the recesses of our hrain was conjured the spectre of college organic, Qualitative, Quantitative, and Physical
Chemistry. Secretly we hoped it would never be like that again. Our questions were soon answered when we had the distinction of being the first class at P. CO. to be taught by Dr. Robert Rutman. Dr. Rutman came to us as a visiting lecturer after a long and distinguished career in the field of chemistry. In no time at all we were engrossed in the subtle mysteries of the mole- cules. Our course was comprehensive and well taught. We learned all, from the simplest carbohydrate to Kwashiorkor! The laboratory course was an adventure into the
ethereal (if one can really traverse the sublime to the ridiculous). In laboratory we learned twenty methods for testing glycosuria, none of which are used today. We became proficient in looking busy without even trying. We worked in pairs and the experiments were not difficult, with the exception of occasional distrac- Robert J. Rutman, B.S., Ph.D. tions from the sound of hobnailed boots and strains of "Deutschland Uber Alles" permeating the room. At
times we wondered if the lab text was really "Mein Kampf."
BIOCHEMISTRY You'll do better next year, doctor. First YOU step on the grapes for three hows
Are tve doing it right, John? A major portion of the first two years is spent in the study of physiology and pharmacology. Dr. 13 f^A-o^<. Spencer G. Bradford, Associate Professor and acting executive officer of the Department of Physiology, assumes the majority of the responsibility of teaching body functions, the alterations produced by the various classes of drugs, and the application of this material to the practice of medicine. These two subjects are an important phase of a physician's training, as a thor- ough knowledge of physiology enables the physician to more easily understand body function and patho- logical aberrations of function. Proper theraposis could not be possible without a thorough knowledge of modern pharmacology. The laboratory training exposes the student to the reactions of various animals and tissues to different stimuli. The problems and questions arising in the classroom and laboratory are dealt with in informal conferences conducted by Dr. Bradford and his staff. Upon completion of these courses, the student has the advantage of a sound basis on which he may rely in future studies, and in his future years in practice.

Is that all you have in your drawer?
I woke up this morning and this pipe was growing oia oj my
nose . . . The beginning of the Sophomore year finds the now confident student undertaking an ahnost impos- sible task; that of learning pathology. This is the major subject of the second year and consumes an appropriate amount of time in the form of numerous lectures and long laboratory periods. The first two trimesters are spent in the study of general pathology. Classifications and discussions of disease are culmin- ated by written examinations, many quizzes, impass- able microscopic practicals, and a gross practical examination. Dr. O. Edwin Owen, former head of the Pathology Department, and Dr. Tobias Shild, present head of the department, and their assistants did an admirable job organizing and teaching a formidable subject. Dr. Ruth Waddell assumes the major portion of the lecturing during the last trimester and the first trimester of the third year. These two trimesters are primarily concerned with Clinical Pathology. The various tests are performed and discussed with empha- aberrations from sis on physiologic and pathologic normal. F-F-F-FF-F-F-F-FF-F-FF Upon completion of these four trimesters of path- ology the student has gained an important "foot-hold" in his struggle to become a physician for he has been endowed with a knowledge of the basic mechanisms of the pathogenesis of disease states which will, in future years, enable him to rationally diagnose and manage these conditons.

It is the oldest national osteopathic fraternal organiza- tion having a chapter in each of the six osteopathic colleges. It has a Grand Council with its National headquarters in Den- ver, Colorado. Styloid Chapter, at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy, was founded in 1924 with the objective of exercising fraternal functions and furthering osteopathic education. The brother- hood is proud of the active leadership shown by so many of its members, both as students and as graduate physicians. The group sponsors many educational and social affairs throughout the year both for its brothers and for the rest of the PCO family and friends. While the Grand Council serves as a guiding influence in matters on the national level, the Styloid Chapter is entirely autonomous in the conduction of its affairs and in the selection of its brothers. Atlas Club has long been known for its con- sideration of each student aspiring for membership on an in- dividual and impartial basis. Peter R. Cimmino, President ATLAS ft IOTA TAU SIGMA Iota Tail ;?igina, one of tlie oldest osteopathic fraternities, yet most modern in spirit of brotherhood and achievement, was founded at Kirksville, Missouri, in 1902. Delta Chapter, founded at P.C.O. in 1903, has been through the years, the Harry Davis, President proud and grateful home of enthusiastic students, devoted alumni and outstanding activities at professional levels of merit. Nationally, Delta Chapter is coordinated with its fellow Chapters through the Supreme Council, which is staffed by Osteopathic Physicians from many states. Locally, Delta's many activities are guided by student officers and alumni, dedicated to the perpetuation and advancement of osteopathic principles throughout the world. The steps toward future social and professional goals are those which Delta Chapter takes greatest pride in furnishing all members. Lambda Omicron Gamma Fraternity and the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy share a close affiliation. It was at P. CO. in 1924 that a group of undergraduates with common ideals founded the organization which has now grown to national prominence. Caduceus Chapter is well known at the college for its active educational, social and campus participation. Educational sessions highlight the biweekly meetings held at the fraternity house located at 46th and Locust Streets. Guest speakers present topics of special interest designed to supplement the undergraduate curriculum, and to cover phases in our education that cannot be provided in the classroom. Undergraduate participation in the educational program fea- tures panel discussions involving some problem of everday practice. A suitable prize is presented by the Alumni group to the outstanding panelist. A most important aspect of a fraternity is an active social program. Dances are held at the chapter house at frequent intervals. In addition, the undergraduate membership attends Mitchell Horenstein, President L.O.G.'s national convention held this this year at Atlantic City's Shelbourne Hotel.

Both of these groups were llicn national osteopathic fraternities. Zeta Chap- ter at the Pliihidclpiiia College of Osteopathy was organized in September. 1917. through the concerted eflforts of Dr. Nathaniel Boyd, II, and Dr. Rice le Grand Cooper, both of whom were alumni of the Alpha Chapter at Kirksville, Missouri. Phi Sigma Gamma enjoys national recognition with chap- ters at each of the six O.steopathic Colleges. Grand Council which meets each year at the .National C9nvention acts to advise and officiate chapter activities and publishes the Phi Sigma Gamma Yearbook, The Speculum. This year, as in the past, the Brothers have devoted their activities toward educational and social progress. The frater- nity calendar began with the Rushing Party and Educational which with the fine cooperation of the Alumni proved to be a unique attraction. This cooperation has continued with the result that the educational program has become coordinated James ]. Malandro, President into a biweekly schedule.

The organization at P.C.O. is under the guidance of Dr. Samuel Berkowitz of the Louis Marshall House of the University of Penna. At the foundation's monthly luicheon meetings topics concerning inspirational, religious, social and professional problems are discussed by the Rabbi, by guest speakers, or via motion picture. One of the annual features of this pro- gram is a lecture series defining religious problems encountered in daily practice. P.C.O. is the only graduate school in America having an active Hillel chapter. CHRISTIAN OSTEOPATHIC SOCIETY The Christian Osteopathic Society was fouiulc'd in I'JSC by Robert Enghinil. A workl-widc orf^anization for physicians in practice has firown out of tliis. The purpose of the society is to provide fellowsliip, Bible study and other functions for students who believe in Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord, and who seek to help mankind spiritually as well as physically. In view of the important position of the physician as a leader in his community, Christian service is emphasized. C.O.S. holds its meetings during the noon hour each Thursday. These meetings have featured slides, discussions and studies in the Book of Acts. OFFICERS General Chairman Lorraine C. Watts Membership Chairman Harrv B. Davis Projects Chairman Anthony J.

The Catholic Guild on the campus of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy is a member group of the National Fed- eration of Catholic Physicians. This organization serves to in- form the Catholic student of his future moral obligation as a physician. The guild's activities are highlighted by lectures delivered by religious instructors from several local colleges, and by discussions pertinent to medical and medico-moral problems. Included in the yearly activities is the Annual Communion Breakfast sponsored by the Guild's Federation and attended by all the Osteopathic and medical physicians and students in Philadelphia. On campus, it is one of the most active societies. Ferdinand L. Manlio OFFICERS Ptesident Ferdinand L. Manlio Vice President Joseph M. Marino CATHOLIC GUILD Secretary _ James J.

Watts, President The Undergraduate Academy of Applied Osteopathy was founded at P.C.O. in 1950 and is directly responsible to the Academy of Applied Osteopathy. Its purpose is to help the undergraduate student acquire a better understanding of osteopathic principles, attain a maximum efficiency in osteo- pathic structural diagnosis and manipulative therapy, and to foster in themselves and in others a clear concept of clinical application of osteopathic procedure in health and disease. Monthly meetings are held at which time guest speakers discuss osteopathic therapy and diagnosis as related to prob- lems met in practice. Frequent meetings are devoted to tech- nique sessions to aid the student in developing his manipula- tive techniques. To attain membership in the Undergraduate Academy a student must have completed successfully two trimesters of his freshman year, attend 75''o of meetings, and be approved by the executive committee. All students who are interested in the organization are urged to apply for membership. INTERNAL MEDICINE SOCIETY ^if'iv^ "^^> ^^=^ P I ^^sS: This popular and active society, in whose old ledgers are seen distinguished alumni, functions now as in the past as an educational facility presently under the the able direction of Dr. William F. Daiber, Chairman of the Department of In- ternal Medicine Of The College and its Hospitals. The leadership tires to introduce to its junior and senior members physicians who represent specialties and who speak on topics in medicine which are recently enlightened and are of special interest to the students. By the extra exposures, it is hoped that the undergraduate physicians gain more and keener foresight in the practice of sound Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery. Jack Karlin and Leo Romisher, Presidents OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY SOC. OFFICERS President Marvin Kanefield Vice President Mitchell Horenstein Treasurer Robert M. Smith The Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology is composed of Junior and Senior students who have an interest in Obstetrics and Gynecology. Its purpose is to meet regularly in order to promote the knowledge of Obstetrics and Gynecology and to further provide opportunities for its members to become acquanited wtih the progressively newer developments arising in the field. At the monthly meetings of the society, both staff and guest lecturers present topics of interest, and occasionally there are movies and panel discussions. Marvin Kanefield, President STUDENT WIVES The Osteopathic Students' Wives of the Philadelphia College, in addition to being a social organization, has two other import- ant aims — those of education and service. Stuudents* Wives hope to acquaint the wives not only with each other but also with their future responsibilities as wives of doctors and representatives of the Osteopathic pro- fession. Each month there is an organizational meeting consisting of a brief business ses- sion and a planned program which caters to the interests of students' wives and occasion- ally to the wives' husbands also. Our semi-annual bake sales are our major fund raising projects; part of these proceeds are used to purchase books for the P. CO. library. The annual Panel Discussion has added new scope and interest to our organization and activities such as dances, luncheons, and card parties arc part of the social pro- gram.

Four years may be an eternity with no end in sight, or it may be a mere flash in the pano- rama of life. It all depends on the perspective of the spectator as he gazes on that span of time. As the drowning man is said to see his life flashing by, so, also, the senior is able to recount his participation as a member of the P. CO. family. What came prior to September 1957 is of no real concern, and what unknown powers, drives, and hidden ambitions brought the class of '61 together is also irrevelant. What is important, however, is that we were together. It has been said that first impressions are the most lasting, and we must admit that the first people we met made impres- sions that lasted. Those of us who spent some time in service to our country recalled visions of boot camp. Our President read his essay "New Horizons" concerning a 2000 bed institu- tion with inroads at City Line. We were warned that they could not guarantee us internships at our parent institution. It is only now that we fully realize how true this statement was. After the fright and confusion of the first few days had worn off, we were able to calm down to a level of hysteria which we maintained throughout that year. As one of our former professors once said, we had been "beaten over the head with the knobby end of a femur." The Anatomy Team was well organized. When the first team was away on Saturdays, the shock troops came to wreak havoc on the masses. Even now we cringe as we hear the hunt- ing cry, "You don't know, do you FARRI?" We can almost see a lynch mob at the men's fourth floor lounge as the cry of "Spy!" was raised again. It was during this year that we met that famous comedy group Hawk, Oser, Summerson, and John. As we picked up our score cards and finished a "tremendjous" first year, we still had memories of Plank's constant and that famous quote, "Bernie never flunks anyone." For some reason the second year is dim in the authors' minds. There were, of course. Pathology lectures. Pathology labs, Spelling Bees, and Pafliology quizzes. Interspersed were tid-bits of Surgery, Psychiatry, and Medicine, where we learned six definitions of "fracture," "coma," and "shock." As the wind broke in March, we attended our first lecture in Physical Dagnosis. As we bade farewell to thig year, so also did we bid farewell as a Baldwin locomotive steamed off to York. The third year, unlike the dimness of the second year, is quite vivid in our minds. The authors only wish that they could forget the nightmare. It was now that the country club set made itself known for the first time. Golfing, tennis, swim- ming, card tournaments, and sight seeing were the rage. A few of the more sedentary spent their leisure hours at the local coffee house. A few of the more ambitious men spent this time wrapping up S 13472 A-()21, while in the background whistles blew as the Karate team humbled their opponents. By now the embryonic physicians began to speak earnestly of what the future would hold. We spoke of internships, resi- dencies, and the joys of practice. A few in our group had already decided to do missionary work for the Academy. On almost any night our more diligent, hardworking men might be found observing in the grandstands of far-flung teaching centers. CLASS HISTORY (continued) If one were to select any one symbol as characteristic of the third year, it would be the examinations. Year after year though the questions remained static, the answers seemed to change. By June with tired hands and broken pens, our pock- ets bare of Amphetamine, we waited with great expectations for the beginning of the externship. Once again we found ourselves at the station bidding farewell to the Long Island Express. By the time the senior year was a few minutes old, we encountered the problems of a senior clerk. Those of us on clinic service met that tool of harassment, the X-ray requisi- tion. We heard questions such as, "What do you mean this Patient is white? He is surely ivory or manila." Other stu- dents on hospital service sat meekly on a stool in the labor room while Otis Oliver finished his series of 500 Podalic ver- sions. On clear days the head nurse would open the window so that the externs with the use of their lOOOX telescopes could view the festival of motherhood from their perches atop 46th and Spruce Streets. Meanwhile, in the recovery room another group was being indoctrinated in the heroic use of the suction machine. Of all the groups, there were none so feared or respected as those men of steel and brains of prim- ordials, known as the "Raiders."' Any hour, day or night they might be seen kneading, pulling, pounding, stretching, crack- ing, correcting, pumping, rotating, increasing the range , of motion, and protecting the Supremacv of the Artery. All the while our comrades in the basement were manipulating seman- tics in an effort to obtain a diagnosis. In the clinics seventy- hundred an.l fifty patients, nine st.ulent physicians xvith three diagnosis sv„,pton,atolo.y, all had the same all with different occasions we were -\ltered Vertebral Mechanics.

An American baby born today has a lite expectancy of seventy years. New and more effec- tive medicines have played a major role in adding these twenty years of life. Under the American system of free competitive enterprise, Merck Sharp & Dohme has introduced new and remarkably effective medicinals for the preser- vation of health and the treatment of mankind's afflictions. Here are some examples of the company's research accomplishments: 1936 Synthesis of Vitamin B,, useful in treating a variety of nerve and heart disorders. 1938-43 Synthesis and introduction of new Sulfa drugs to combat bacterial infection. 1944 First synthesis of Cortisone, to combat pain and symptoms of arthritis. 1948 Isolation of Vitamin B,j, used to combat pernicious anemia. 1951 First synthesis of 'Benemid' (Probenecid), for the treatment of gout. 1957 Synthesis and introduction of 'Diuril' (Chlorothiazide), to combat high blood pressure and con- gestive heart failure. 1958 Development and introduction of 'Decadron' (Dexamethasone), the most potent anti-inflammatory steroid. 1959 Development of "Tetravax' to immunize infants and children against four deadly childhood diseases — polio, w/hooping cough, tetanus and diphtheria. 1960 Introduction of 'Purivax', a more potent and more consistent killed-virus polio vaccine. 1960 Development of 'Thrombolysin', a clot-dissolving agent of exceptional purity. ^feraSB MERCK SHARP & DOHME DIVISION OF MERCK & CO..
