"Dedication
To The Memory of Our Beloved
Dr. J. Ivan Dufur
1877-1930
The gayesx fioiirs trip h'ghtly bv
AnA leave the faintest trace
But the deep, deep trac\ that sorrow wears
Time never can eface.
It is with the greatest sincerity that we may say "to know
him was to love him." Each one of us reaHzes a personal loss in
the passing of a dynamic personality hidden in a dignified and
mild-mannered gentleman and scholar. To find a man who gave
more of his undivided interests to promoting Osteopathy, to per-
petrating enduring friendships, and to manifesting a responsibility
of intrinsic depth and sincerity for the numerous needs of human-
ity, would be an illimitable task. It is with great sorrow that we
realize the VII. Volume of Synapsis cannot be shared and enjoyed
by Dr. Dufur, "the little General," originator of this annual ex-
pression of college activities.
The College and Profession.
FOREWORD
"The law of worthy life is fundamentally the law of
strife. It is only through labor, painful effort by grim
energy and resolute courage that we move on to better
things."
Theodore Roosevelt
We turn the pages of life to another chapter in the
history of our College and Profession. We shall not eulogize
the achievements of the past, but rather concentrate our
efforts on the symbolizing of a certain and steady progress
which we can not fail to recognize when we consider
the youth of our Philosophy. It is our pious hope
that this publication may parallel the precocity
of Osteopathy's meteoric ascension and
that it may be an inspiration to our
successors to avoid the eroding
sameness that marks the
gradual defeat of even
a worthy cause.

Qhemistry Jl^boratory
We can honestly boast of one of the most modern and completely equipped
laboratories in this city, supervised by a staff of thoroughly trained and experienced
chemists. Many interesting and absorbing hours have been spent in this department
of our College, and it is our hope that the facilities this laboratory presents will prove
an inspiration to those who follow us and are afforded the opportunity to persue
there the secrets of the most intricate and interesting of sciences. May the many
unsolved mysteries that the world is waiting to learn someday be disclosed therein.
This laboratory contains two hundred and twenty-five lockers and will accom-
modate one hundred students at one session.
T) is section laboratory
Curtains are here raised to divulge the secrets of human anatomy to the under'
classes. This modern laboratory harbors twenty'cight tables and will accommodate
one hundred and forty students. It is equipped with a refrigeration plant that will
preserve thirtyfive cadavera. A recent addition to this department is equipment for
brain dissection wherein a splendid practical objective is obtained of the most intricate
of cellular structures, the human brain. The lighting and ventilation on this floor are
such that the student is virtually as well equipped as a surgeon to perform his ex'
ploratory work. In addition, the hygiene of the laboratory is under the supervision
of Gilbert A. Gavin, whose clever methods of embalming preserves the subjects under
examination in a manner least offensive to the student.
The Qlinic
One need only visit this section of the college on a clinic day to appreciate the
significance of an architecturally obscured haven for the physically incompetent. The
clientele of the clinic have so far surpassed the expectations of our builders that we
wonder how large an addition to our out-patient department will be necessary five
years hence.
At the present time there are thirty-seven treating rooms each equipped with an
osteopathic table and stool. In these rooms approximately one hundred and fifty pa-
tients are treated and examined in one day by student or practicing doctors.
The clinical organization consists of the departments of Osteopathy, Neurology,
Physical-Therapy, Pediatrics, Cardio-Respiratory, Genito-Urinary, Dermatology, Proct-
ology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat, and Podiatrics.
Amphitheatre
We feel a note of seriousness as we reflect upon the shrine of the skillful surgeon.
It is here that many lives have been preserved and born and where we hope in the
years to come that few will be lost.
The refreshing cleanliness of scrupulously polished metal-work and azure-tinted
wells are replaced by the necessity of resorting to two-tone effects. Even a cursory
glance at this spacious and scientifically conceived operating pit suggests surgery con-
ducted with utmost efficiency and circumspect asepsis. The Amphitheatre will seat two
hundred and fifty spectators, each of whom has an unobstructed view of the procedures
below.

A.B. University of Pennsylvania, 1916
D.O. Phila. College of Osteopathy, 1922
Dr. Holden made his entry to the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy as head
of the Department of Biologic Sciences. This was by no means the extent of his
teaching ability for he could aptly substitute in any of the other Departments. During
the World War he answered the call to arms and acted as Sergeant-Major in the 538th
Engineers A. E. F., at the close of the war he continued his career at the College and
received his degree in 1922. The Board of Directors elected Dr. Holden to the
responsible position as Dean of the College in 1924 upon the resignation of a worthy
predecessor, Dr. Flack.
Dr. Holden's officiation as Dean of the College can scarcely be paralleled, for it
was through his diligent and diplomatic efforts that the glorious edifice which now
stands, bearing the name of Osteopathy was started and completed. Too much can
not be said of Dr. Holden's administration and in view of his past accomplishments we
look with eager anticipation to the continuance of a brilliant advancement, through the
medium of a far-sighted, intellectual, professional teacher and scholar.

CLASSES
Qreetings to the Qlass of igsi
If there has been any one certain thing about medical education during the past ten
years it is that no one has been entirely satisfied with it. In comparable sense the
disposition of the osteopathic curriculum to respond to various temptations and im-
portunities has stirred up criticisms and led to reforms. But in general the proclivity
of osteopathic teaching has remained sanely and advisedly along orthodox lines and
with sensible regard for impeccable fundamentals.
Today's graduate enjoys a material advantage over the young physicians of a
decade ago. His profession is undubitably better and more favorably known. A
forward impetus is prevalent in our current organization — the entire osteopathic
domain is "looking up".
The essential purpose of the College curriculum is to prepare the student for a
useful life in the field of practice of Osteopathy. It is neither the aim nor the design
of the faculty to turn out mere cultists deaf to the postulates of logic or blind to the
evolvements of science.
Sentiment for things osteopathic is given wholesome encouragement in our schools,
but always with deference to sound reasoning and in the light of scientific revelation.
The College is mindful of its duty to the student in cultural and ethical training.
The presentment and emulation of high principles and proprieties are mapped out side
by side with art and science.
It has been observed during the last fifteen years that "preaching" has given away
to "teaching" of the fundamental osteopathic concept in our Colleges.
Laboratory experiment, cadaver, and mamkin are votive offerings to nature's
acumen, but the clinic patient will always be the most exemplary expression of
osteopathic wisdom.
Individual and section instruction in osteopathic mechanics and osteopathic
diagnosis and technique is the most salutary innovation in the modern curriculum.
The price of organized medicine's rejection of Andrew Taylor Still's teaching
without investigation and is opposition to osteopathic discoveries can be measured
only in terms of infinite human misery and mortality.
The greatest need in Osteopathy today, and it will long continue to be of
paramount consideration, is a numerical increase of general practitioners. Surgery
and other specialties are at best but garnishments of old'School practice. True osteo'
pathic art will form the keystone of tomorrow's therapeutic dominion while osteopathic
science still holds the rationale of many of the mysterious workings of life.

Senior History
President Norman Warburton
Vice-President ROBERT Warner
Secretary Gyneth Chapman
Treasurer Willard Shackelton
Early in the fall season of 1927, a group of individuals gathered one evening, to
become acquainted, one with the other, and to meet those members of the Faculty of
the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy who would guide them in the first studies
which were so essential to a later understanding of subjects pertaining to diagnosis
and treatment of disease. There were in this group an aggregate of one hundred and
seven persons— Many with a definite idea of some day attaining the privilege of being
"Doctors of Osteopathy", others as is apparent from the fact that they are no longer
with us, without any idea as to why they had come to Philadelphia. Be that as it may,
the next few succeeding weeks found them well organized, with Harry Weisbecker,
President; Angus Cathie, Vice-President; Evangeline Avery, Secretary; Edwin Gants^
Treasurer. In spite of the many difficulties presenting themselves in the form of
various "ologies", the class sponsored a dance, held at the Oak Lane Review Club,
which was enjoyed by all, including the Sophomores, who, by the way, were well
represented.
The Sophomore year was at hand in what now seems to have been a short space
of time. Under the class officers— "Art" German, President; Girard Campbell, Vice-
President; Evangeline Avery, Secretary; Arthur McKelvie, Treasurer; the year passed
rather uneventfully, with frequent "stories" of there soon being a new P. C. O. Direct
action was initiated when the Board of Directors of the College called for volunteers
to solicit funds for the great project. The Class of '31, answered this call in a manner
that was surpassed by no other class in raising funds from our individual incomes as
well as aiding solictors in the general campaign. Aside from a dance given us by the
Class of '32, there were no other important events of the year.
The Junior year commenced at Nineteenth and Spring Garden Streets, as had the
two preceeding years. Late in the fall the College moved to its present site. How
proud we were of our new home and our participation in making its construction pos-
sible! Although not having the honor of being the first class to graduate from so im-
pressive an edifice, we were privileged in being the first class to serve its entire term
in the new ^clinic. It was our first opportunity to put into practical application those
"principles" laid down by the "old doctor" and to see the results of applying the
technique used in this, his method of therapeutics. The pleasure experienced by each
of us in observing improvement in the conditions of our individual patients, and the
thought that we were actually aiding some fellow-being in his struggle against on-
coming disease or deformity, more than repaid us for our efforts. Time passed quickly
in our new environment except for an epidemic of "spring fever" the only treatment
for which was the "Junior Prom," prescribed by Bill Miner and gratefully received
by all so afflicted.
Class officers for this year were: Norm Warburton, President; "Bob" Warner,
Vice-President; Agatha Crocker, Secretary; Willard Shackehon, Treasurer. Of these,
all but Agatha Crocker, who was replaced by Gwyneth Chapman, were re-elected to
office during their Senior year.
Our last year in preparing to depart from the halls of Alma Mater into the
Realms of Practise has been spent in receiving more practical instruction in Special
Clinical work and Student Interneships in the Hospital. Some have become more in-
terested in one type of clinical practice than in others. Some are thinking of a general
practice; others are hoping for a chance to spend a year in the Hospital as a Resident
Physician. In any event all are looking forward to their graduation in June. During
the year we rallied once more to the aid of our school and hospital by giving a benefit
dance in October, to which all classes were invited, the results of which were gratefully
received by those who manage the affairs of our institution.
In saying farewell, we wish to express our gratitude to those who have so gener-
ously given of our time and knowledge that we might "take the torch of Osteopathy",
to hold it high so all the world might see; and to thank them for all they have done
so willingly to help us lay a foundation for future research and endeavor in our chosen
profession. To those who follow in our footsteps may they successfully accomplish
what they have undertaken. To our Classmates success in every undertaking attempted.

QUO VADIS
(Editor's Note- Acting under the premise that there is a reason for everything,
even such a prophecy as this, editorial "we" discovered the "propheter" musing some-
thing like this:)
"Selah, selah— even unto 1950 A. G. (after graduation). There is a great weak-
ness upon me — a stuttering of lights — a cacophony of sounds assail the tender
tympanic membranes of my ears, ears long persecuted by the oratory of grim visaged
professors. The panhellenic conclave of antecedant prophets ring me in the irony
of their ga^es, pressure is being brought to bear upon me, causing me great distress
and dyspnea, to say nothing of sense of fullness in the precordium. Woe is me — every
exit is closed; escape is impossible; it is fate — I must look into the crystal of life and
watch the future pass in review."
Of course I could do nothing, so I allowed him to rave on.^
"A cosmopolitan scene comes into view — a crowded auditorium — people of
scientific mein, rapt and moved as Dr. Girard W. Campbell, Osteopathic physician par
excellence, golf par 82, demonstrates the new Campbell pan for panhistorectomies,
usuable in barn or kitchen surgery.
A quick shift — lodge rooms with deep seated chairs and well seated Osteopaths;
the tenth meeting of the Universal Cardio- Vascular Society. Officers are elected — Dr.
Alphonso Merola, left ventricle — Dr. Paul Young, aortic stenosis — Dr. James C.
Luker, auricular flutter. Subsequently these eminents suff"er severe cardiac embarrass-
ment as a movement is made to close the meeting. Presumably this is because they are
unable to pick up the murmurs of approval, having forgotten their stethoscopes.
Blue grass of Kentucky — Ambition now gratified. Dr. Eugenia Coffee strides
complacently among the results of her work. Gone are the mountain stills (out of
sight), and now the doctor's time is spent in trying to sell these rugged people Osteo-
pathy — but it doesn't go down so easily.
Dr. Harlon Bartholomew seems to have done a DaCosta by joining the local fire
department. It seems that Bart while at P. C. O., in the hydrotherapy department,
became a victim of the habit of squirting water at people.
Now we see trees bending in the breeze, sloping lawns studded with buildings that
hug the ground. This is the "Home of the Big Muscle, the Broad Chest, the Sturdy
Hamstrings," owned and operated by Dr. Benjamin F. Adams. Here special care is
given to boys with much money and thick skulls. Music has its charm so Dr. Kenneth
Zwicker is in charge of orchestration — here even the bony lesions move with a "boop-
boop-a-doop".
Heart of the Sierra's! A pair of searchers, Drs. Frederick Dannin and William
Desotnek are searching most diligently over the rocky surfaces of the mountain ridges
for the home of the kidney stone.
Dr. Angus Cathie, the bunion specialist, is on his feet again. He recently suf-
fered a nervous breakdown after taking up eye, ear, nose and throat work as a
specialty — it seems he couldn't make both ends meet.
While Dr. James Christian has spread Osteopathy into the four corners of the
world by the medium of his magnetic voice and the influence of his timely topics,
nevertheless he still returns home for the week-ends. His book "Osteopathy Under
the Microscope," is for sale at all the leading drug stores. Sales production is en-
trusted to Dr. Warren Baldwin who is very happy doing his job since it gives him
his time to attend to his practice and to mind the children.
Drs. Isadore Goldner and Leroy Lovelidge have also edited a book entitled "Labor,
the Silent Drama". The valuable data for this book was secured from the delivery
of a series of 113 "still" births.
Shades of the Sahara! Who do we see trudging among the sand dunes, shattered
temples and sand burnished rums of the old world, but Drs. Berger, Otto, Bowden and
Randolph. These men in the metamorphosis of life have gone archaeologic and now
roll the bones of the ancient Syrians and Egyptians, even as of yore.
Rah, Rochester! Dr. Leroy Conklin has entered upon the sixth year of successful
operation of the v>/orld famed and widely renowned "Conklin Charm School for
Chlorotic Females", conducted under his personal and private supervision.
How literary some of the old brigade seem to have become — ^here is Doc Kring,
the boy prodigy, just finishing the "Osteopathic Compend, or Meedless drugs, their
actions, reactions, and the States in which they can be used."
I should live so long! I see Dr. Jay Pekow, ambulatory to the last, with his office
on top of the Bulova Watch Building, so that he can always be on Time. Abe says
that 4 hours of sleep per night are enough for anyone and if it isn't, one can always
sleep on a treating table.
Now a laboratory; experimentation, concentration and finally success. Dr. George
Miller has just synthesized green vegetables with beef steak flavors. He now hopes
to grow a new low bush variety of "hot roast beef sandwiches".
Ton my word if it isn't Dr. Bailey T. Flack, Dean of the Osteopathic and
Neuropathic College of Peterborrow, Pa. Bailey's two children are both sick with
sprue, but after being treated by Dr. Harold Weber they always quaintly remark:
"Gee, Dr. I feel better alreadv".
Invisable rays? Yes. Dr. Jimmie Reid, noted roentgenologist, is seen experiment-
ing to determine if the long or the short ray is curing fibroid in the paramecium
vivax today. He has recently returned from a National Convention; while there he
received injuries to his right wrist, but recently has been able to slap people on the
back with his left hand.
Well, well — here comes Dr. Stephen Deichelman from his printers with some
new literature that has just come off the press. The circular is headed by the in-
scription :
"Paretics" — benefit by my experience!
Twelve hundred cases show specific cure by the new grapefruit injection method.
In Dike's new sanatorium all conveniences are had. His latest addition is an oval turf
track where all those that once played the "ponies" can now ride them. Drs. Mc-
Kelvie and Nay lor come trotting smartly along; Steve, having a cold, wins by a nose.
Dr. Leonard Heech is gaining much notoriety (pardon, I mean publicity) thru'
his charity course in "Advice to Adolescents" that is given to the Girl's High School
of Rochester.
What can this be. Just an operating room. Dr. Harold Gorham is having his feet
lifted by the eminent "plastered surgeon" Dr. Jewel. After this was completed it
was decided to remove said Dr. Gorham's vocal chords, so that he could not talk back
to himself in his office. Dr. Jewel is receiving telegrams of felicitations from many
and a few remonstrance from Drs. Gants, Steinberg, Gajeway, who offer in argument
that the next New York Society meeting can not possibly maintain its usual "Cheerio"
spirit without Gorham to lead their quartette.
Dad of them all! Of course no one else but Dr. Charles Sauter and his nine
children.
Dr. Bashline of Grove City, is now calling Dr. Dale Jamison in as consultant.
Also Dale, has just originated a new bloodless surgery technique for the removal of
false teeth. It's his secret, people.
67
H K. Mulford Co., have Dr. John Glenn, syringe in hand, under contract for
the disposal of their salvarsan products. Johnny in his enthusiasm is fond of saying:
"The children cry for it" or "Should Your best friend know?"
Sunflowers and prairie — Dr. Joe Sikorski, left Mr. duPont in Wilmington, and is
now practicing in Machuska, Mich. He and Gordon are still the two big "Gyn" men
however.
Dr. Robert Snow is specializing. His specialty is making money. In his last in-
terview with the Associated Press he gives full credit to his no credit plan of finance,
and his ruthlessness in charging as much as possible. His exorbitant fee at the present
time is $1.35 for office visit and $.25 more in the home.
Success: Finally Dr. William Guinand, thru' political influence and personal
contact has had himself appointed as chief insultant in "The Home for Destitute
Nurses".
Dr. William Miner has a new racket. He is now inspecting the immigrants at
Ellis Island, for the cause of the business depression. Dr. Willard Shackleton, his able
assistant, stays in the office and collects the $10.00 for a treatment.
Dr. Aram Renjilian, recently bought in the east end of Long Island for the purpose
of raising fancy vegetables, which he sells to the west end of Long Island; his Osteo'
pathy he divides between the east and the west ends of Long Island.
An ocean liner! Dr. Robert Wilson is seen returning home from Turkey with a
very discontented look on his face. It is all because Turkey has abolished poligomy
and Bob was looking for variety.
Ah Ravena! Dr. Walter Rohr, wealthy philanthropist has propagated a fund for
propagation of non-propagating guinea pigs. This endowment also has a special clause
which provides a dietician and a set of silver feeding forks for the guinea pigs at
P. C. O.
Disproving the old axiom that "never the twain shall meet," Drs. Agatha Crocker
and Gwyneth Chapman have established joint offices for the treatment of arthritic con-
ditions in pensioned bartenders.
Dr. Martin Beeman is doing a nice business in the care and treatment of "house-
maid's knee". The doctor is also doing very well with the house maids.
A reunion — after long years of separation Dr. Foster D. Clark meets Dr. Fred
Brown Cushman with a goodly shaking of hands and twirling of mustache on the
part of Dr. Foster D. Clark. Before they separate the usual question arises as to
which was first, the hen or the egg.
Moaning low. Here is Dr. Merritt Davis newly returned from Europe where
he demonstrated his saxophone anesthesia. All that is necessary is a sound proof
room, and a saxophone; the anesthestist blows upon the "sax" vigorously and the
patient during the stage of excitement butts his head against the tile wall until uncon-
scious, in this manner saving much in the cost of ether. Pat. pending.
Honor to whom honor is due. Much credit must be given to Dr. Beatrice Kratz
for her development of first rib technique that is applicable to second ribs on the fair-
way or on the green.
Dr. Samuel Taylor of Chester, was the host of Dr. William Lumley, for the
week-end, It seems that Bill's wife v/as away and Bill had gone "chicken-hearted".
Dr. Edward Theiler, now refuses to treat more than ten patients per day as he
claims that he is unaccustomed to hard work, and besides he never has more than ten
patients.
Drs. Wilbur Kell and Troy Stratford, while hunting in the north woods shot
and fatally wounded a charley-horse, for which offence they have been sentenced to
?iO days in the College clinic.
Dr. Jack Fields, just down from Canada for the day, saw the damage done by
these amateur sports and rushed to render first aid with his Miller lymphatic pump,
but arrived too late to save the day (pardon me) horse.
Dr. Deland Towner miraculously escaped death yesterday when in his Austin
he drove into the exhaust pipe of a truck thinking it was the Holland tunnel.
I see money, money, everywhere! Why it comes from a course given by Drs.
William Ellis and Robert Warner for the small sum of $250.00. These wide awake
physicians are selling basketball training, complete in 6 weeks, to the proud plumber
and brick layer who won't accept a wage cut.
What sort of man is this? Only Dr. Harry Weisbecker who has increased his
chest expansion 6 3-4 inches by blowing into his brother's basal metabolism machine.
69
Dr. Harry Sweeney has brought suit against Dr. David Morrison in the Court
of Complaints, stating that on the first of the month in their usual monthly game of
double solitaire, Dr. Morrison was guilty of fraud. Dr. Morrison counter-states that
Dr. Sweeney had two ice cream sodas and was not able to detect fraud under the
most obvious circumstances.
Dr. William Nairn has just returned from a prolonged stay in Florida. He
stayed so long that he missed much of his morning practice, but Bill claims that this
is merely a residium of those days when he tarried around the hospital furnaces
and he would get there just the same.
Dr. Isabel Johnson, has arisen from sixth assistant to third assistant of one of the
largest Osteopaths in the country. She doesn't care for further advancement now as
her own practice keeps her so busy that she only has 6 nights to herself.
Dr. Wayne Hammond is now sixth assistant and would have been iifth were it
not for the fact that he broke 2 of a wealthy patients ribs and when she complained
he lost his chance for promotion.
Music, sweet and low! Dr. Norman Warburton has made himself famous in song
by writing a touching little ballad called: "Asleep in the Curve of a Sacrum". He
has been trying to explain the theme of it to Irving Berlin for many weeks, but Irving
only says it sounds like hot air to him.
Woe is me! Dr. R. H. Rickards is still sitting and pondering where the cool
zeyphers blow, at Du fur's. : as the result of this prophecy.

J. Walter Axtell
"Let the world slide, let ih: world J
A fig for eare, end a fig for woe!
If I ecn't pay, why I cen owe.
And death makes equal the high am
If you were to seek the world over,
scan the planets of the universe, and
sweep the corners of heaven, you would
find no better natured man, no easier-
going man, no less worried man, no more
contented man, than J. Walter Axtell.
A student of Syracuse University, Walt
plays the saxophone and "fiddles" his
way through Osteopathy. A musician
to the core his sax and his rhythm are
well-known to the best night clubs clear
from Rochester to Atlantic City. He not
only plays his way through college, but
plays right into the hearts of his fellow-
men. Of a keen, probing, observant
mind, we are sure his jovial alacrity will
prevent his ever playing into the hands
of anyone trying to take advantage of
his good-nature.
William M. Barnhurst
"Our enemies have beat us to the hip.
It is more worthy to leap in ourselves
Than tarry till they push us."
— Shakespeare.
Barney is the good-natured swimming
expert in our class, with a grin for every
one and a spirit "dat co-operates wit de
brudders," especially when a subject for
demonstration is badly needed by a
lecturing prof. Good-natured, and with
a grin did we say? Yes, but God help
the man who tries to get fresh with
Barney or hand him a line. For he
doesn't argue, or controvert, or disucss,
he smacks 'em. And man, what a smack!
Being a husky six-footer with Herculean
shoulders, and a punch like the kick of
a mule, it behooves any man to look
twice and think thrice before crossing
Barney. His aggressive qualities are sure
to go far toward making him a good
physician.

Coming to us last year from Kirksville
from whence he got his B. S. degree after
studying in Syracuse University, think-
ing more than he talks, and choosing his
acquaintances for their qaulity rather
than for their quantity, we feel that we
can describe him no better than the above
verse does it. We have no fears for
Frank's future success, for his education
has been a broad one — we almost forgot
to mention that there is a Mrs. Beall,
and while we implore pardon for not
writing more about him, we refer you
to the other member of his partnership
for more detailed information.
"Milky 's" amiable disposition and
pleasant ways have done much toward
curbing that animosity which naturally
arises toward a class treasurer when he
calls upon them for necessary cash. But
it doesn't stop with his classmates. Back
m Birdsboro, where giant steel plants
clang and blast furnaces roar day and
night. Milky dines with prominent
citizens and sups with the head council-
men. In Osteopathy he is the Big
Athlete. His athletic career began with
track and basketball back in Birdsboro
High School, and extended thru Franklin
and Marshall College to our own team.
We feel he is going to make the M.D.'s
quake in their boots when he goes back
to the hometown to practice.

Ben is one of these iron men of whom
we feel incapable to "write his Epitaph."
Going thru life with a physical disability
that would crush many men, he is ever
ready with a cheery good-natured smile
and a Herculean handclasp. We are well
informed that Ben and his pillow are
hard to separate — either that or he uses
a silent alarm-clock for we usually look
around in the morning and say, "where
is Larry"? In spite of Ben's love for
Morpheus he maintains a good standing
in the class and more than this he took
a jump way ahead of most of us by doing
some splendid work in the clinic last
summer. It is a wonder to us how Ben
handles his patients that are left over
from his summer's practice along with
the addition of the newcomers, but it
simply shows you can't keep a good man
down.

Jim hails from the part of Long Island
where estates of bankers, lawyers, and
movie actresses constitute his next door
neighbors. Enlisting in U. S. Navy as
Able Seaman, he soon won an appoint-
ment to Midshipman in United States
Naval Academy of Annapolis. This,
together with his foremanship of a gang
of Tree Surgeons up on Long Island,
tended to develop splendid qualities as
an organizer and a handler of men
which were not cooled by two summers'
work as a Frigidaire installator. For
Jim is Editor of our year book, a job
calling for no mean ability, where one
must be able to soothe his enemies and
keep his friends from becoming faint
hearted. Nor is he a second-rate phys-
ician. But is hailed by the class as a
splendid technician, and a doctor who
does not confine his skill to his ten
fingers.

Emily is our debutante, unconcerned
no matter what may happen. Everyone
calls her a friend, and such she is ready
to be. Perhaps we might with reason,
name her Diplomat for if the fairer sex
entered such service Emily would long
ago have been lost to P. C. O.! Her home
is among the Oranges in New Jersey,
but her summers have always been spent
in Massachusetts. She has not yet told
us which State-boards she will take. But
in either State, we predict an interesting
professional life for Emily E. D. Boone —

We can pay Bill no greater tribute
than apply to him the above verse which
was originally written of the Great
Emancipator, Abraham Lincoln. For
during his professional studies Bill has
encountered all the vicissitudes of
prejudice, enmity, and setbacks, that the
goddess of misfortune could wish on any-
one. And when short-sighted superficial
men said he would never make a physi-
cian, he has kept his peace and poise
and proved his mettle. Bill is now one
of the best loved and most highly respect-
ed members of the class and he has ex-
emplified the statement that tenacity of
purpose will win a just reward.
Earle H. Brett
"From toil he wins his spirit light,
From busy day the peaceful night;
Rich, from the yery want of wealth.
In heaven's best treasures, peace and health.
Earl is a quiet, unassuming fellow with
a well earned reputation. Difficult to
interpret, his friendship, once made, is
of the enduring type which will always
root for the under dog. When Earl
first entered our College his disposition
was of the iron barrier type. The strug'
gles of life had made of him a cynic.
Daily contact with men with whom he
became well acquainted, and the
magnetism imparted to his nature from
a professional brotherhood seems to have
changed him from a misanthrop to a
philanthrop. So that now we do not
think of Earl the cynic, but of Earl the
friend in need and the good fellow.
RiCH.ARD W. BURGET
"My mind to me a kingdom is:
Such present joys therein I find.
That it excels all other bliss
That earth affords or grows by kind."
Dick is one of these fellows that a
good class just couldn't get along with'
out. He never says much, and to the un-
observant he may appear to never do
much. But we who know him have
learned to depend on him for taking
care of little odd jobs that everyone else
has fallen down on. And when we
know him still better we find that his
life is crammed full of just such work
and we find him doing it with a willing
spirit, without grumbling or complaint.
Gentle of nature ard of friendly dis-
position is Dick, and a man well liked
throughout the College.
Joseph T. Calmar
It ii not slrt-nglh, but art, obtains the prize
And to be sn-ift, is less than o be wise:
■T,s more by art than force of numerous strokes.
"Cal" has secret opinions about many
things but discreetly keeps them to him-
self. However, he startles us when he ad'
dresses the profs with details of subjects
most of us know little about. An artist
to the core with the typical artistic
temperament "Cal" is rather hard to
make friends with and few of us know
just how we rate in his estimation, but
when we do find him inclined toward
friendliness he measures up to good
standards.
As an indication of his ability one
need only glance at the neat lettering
work on all the college and hospital doors
for "Cal" held the contract for the entire
work of this character on our new in-
stitution.

Another student who can win
scholastic honors, without creating
animosity thru competition, for his
modest good-nature earns him the reputa-
tion of good-fellow. Like so many stu-
dents, the promising qualities of Gene
were not brought out till after two years
connection with the College. Since this
time he has taken on new responsibilities
in the capacity of Vice-President of the
Junior Class and as Photographic Editor
of the Synapsis. Any one who has
noticed Gene dodging around the school
trying to make appointments for a dozen
people within the same hour can ap-
preciate the earnestness with which he
attacks his duties.
Charlesanna Coles

If Chick's fondness for giving treat-
ments equals her fondness for receiving
them, she'll have a busy future. She is
firm in her purpose — we have known her
to spend hours on a house call! Chick's
College is Swarthmore and her loyalty
to her alma mater is unflinching. From
the University of Pennsylvania she re-
ceived her Master of Arts in psychology.
Charlesanna has taught in Delaware,
Ohio, and Pennsylvania, and she came
here with preparatory training immedi-
ately appreciated by those with whom she
came in contact. Chick's scholastic
record is an enviable one — but there are
those who envy her Buick even more.

Render an honest and a perfect man
Commands all liahl. all inilucnce, all fate.

—Fletcher.
Barney is one of the well-liked mem-
bers of the class. We know that he is
very serious in his work and that he was
one of the ambitious members of our
delegation that sacrificed a great deal of
time and sleep to take a special course
outside of School hours. Whether he
needed this or not is a question, but we
think that from his recent pertinent
questions he assimilated all that was in
his power. We know too that he served
a hitch in the U. S. Army and this no
doubt accounts for his strict attention to
his work and his respect for authority.
We hope that ht confines his practice to
the civilian class for we would not like
to lose a good doctor to the "doughboys."
Harry J. Davis, Jr.
Heaven, firsl Uw. and this confe.
Harry is our ideal of a well-rounded
educational experience prior to the study
of Osteopathy. Graduating from Spring-
iield College, Massachussetts, where he
starred in athletics, he has since held
the position of Director of Physical-edu-
cation, coach of track, basketball, and
football at various institutions. Harry's
interest doesn't stop with college ac-
tivities, for he is a real sportsman. If
portable fishing ponds were possible, he
would be contented anywhere, and Lord
help the poor fishes. Harry is a genuine
friend, a real "he" man, a gentleman
and physician of the first degree.
Paul Hanna Davis
"Slave to no sect, who takes no private road.
But looks through nature up to Nature's God.
And knows where faith, law, morals, all began.
All end, in love of God and love of man."
—Pope.
Paul is the only member of the Jewish
fraternity in the Class of '32, and if he
can be considered as a fair representative
of the organization as a whole, we whole-
heartedly become boosters for the
"LOG's." For a finer, cleaner, broader
minded, intelligent chap simply does not
exist. Coming from one of the most
clannish peoples of the earth, yet are his
views as liberal as a Darrow and his
friendships as Unlirtiited as an Emerson.
His profession is not being handed to
him on a gilt edged platter, but is being
earned by the sweat of his brow. And
we who know him know that he will
not be a physician of the mediocre class.

TAXI? Right here, and you will get

the whole College knows his pedigree
and it only remains for one to write his
epitaph. For Dealy is the fiery little
business manager of the Synapsis staff.
And what a man he is. Where former
managers of former years have come out
with, a year'book months late because
they couldn't get the material and no
one would co-operate, Dealy GETS it
and Dealy MAKES em co-operate,
whether they would or not. With him
a thing isn't "Good enough", it must be
RIGHT and must be there on time.
Sincere, frank-hearted, and honest as a

one thing and think another.
Mildred Du Bell
some power the giftie gie us
Millie's voice has brought her much
fame — imitation they say, is the
sincerest flattery. From harboring a
seemingly casual interest, Millie has come
now to be counted among those who
earnestly desire the "D. O." Camden will
soon list her among its physicians — un-
less she does decide to go to Florida as
she claims she contemplates doing.
Mildred has traveled considerably and
enjoys it, most of her summers are spent
at the shore. In spare time Mil rides
horseback — Can't you just imagine her
as a successful physician bringing back
the good old dayj of the family doctor,
a la horse? We anticipate the day we

Thomas P. Dunleavey
HoTf happy is he born or taught.
That serreth not another's will;
Whose armour is his honest thought,
And simple truth his utmost skill!
Tom is one of the "remote" members
of our class if we are to judge by dis-
tance from P. C. O. We have a certain
amount of sympathy for members of our
class such as Tom who are unable to get
home over short holidays. Although we
know that he longs to get back to the
woods of Vermont, one would not sus-
pect him of pining his heart away for
maples, for Tom possesses a deep strain
of infectious, good nature that crowds
the blues far back into oblivion. It is
easy to predict that Tom's future as-
sociates will hold a great confidence in
him for he is of the rare solid stock that
invites scrupulous counsel and implicit
faith.

Pop is undoubtedly and undeniably,
the most popular man of the class. And
his popularity is not the superficial sen-
sational type, but the badge of service
won thru months of unthankful labor-
ing and settling of unrests and dissents
among we his followers. For Pop is our
class president, and might truly be term-
ed the Great Pacificator. Standing like
Stonewall Jackson's wall of human flesh,
he has stood the brunt of human unap-
preciation and ingratitude. He has
fought our battles with the faculty and
given us justice. He has interceded for
our transgressions and kept unmarred
our fair reputation.

Dot is married — some believe it and
some don't — however, she does have very
decided opinions about some things. This
year when the Juniors went into clinic
Dot suddenly acquired a lot of self-con-
fidence. In fact she couldn't remember
ever being a Freshman — but we do. She
shouts loudly for Massachusetts when-
ever the old Bay State needs supporters.
She and Frank came all the way from
Cape Cod to study Osteopathy, but Dot
gravitates back whenever there's the least
excuse. She'll go back there to practice
— we didn't ask but there's no need to.
Her hobby is the movies, and that's the
truth. In Freshman days a movie was
the only temptation strong enough to
make her cut a class. We'll draw no
comparisons at this time!
Frank, another of the boys from New
England, is a good student and a staunch
member of the radiator club. The amount
of time he spends in eating, drinking, or
sleeping is negligible when exams are on.
He hangs to that notebook up to the
last three seconds before the proctors
pass the papers, and oh boy, don't those
exams take a wallop from his pen. We
envy his tenacity. Frank does not study
Osteopathy alone, for he makes a sweet
little girl happy by taking her with him
through college as his wife. With such
combined professional and domestic co-
operation we can well envy Frank his
future career.

Wally is the rosy cheeked little fellow
from mid'Pennsylvania who is quite ac'
tive on the Axone staff. We hardly feel
that we can do justice to him in writing
his biography, for since entering our Col-
lege he has stuck rigidly to the precept
that; fewer friends are safest and best.
Selecting a single member of the class
as his solid choice he stuck to her thru
thick and thin, so that at times we, his
classmates often wonder which is thick
and which is thin. For aught we know
he may be the Bard of Avon or the
Prince of Denmark, so quiet are his as-
sociations and rare his remarks. For
further information see his partner.

Ed is one of these "Jolly Good Fel-
lows." And he wouldn't need be either,
for he is the best baseball pitcher Osteo-
pathy ever could ask for or hope to have
and thus quite indispensable. He is
furthermore a big insurance man and
Editor - in - Chief of the Osteopathic
Digest. We feel Ed learns by the process
of absorption or osmosis, for he has
never been known to join the "radiator
Club," and surely a man who has gone
through Pennington Seminary under
that grand old master. Dr. Harvey
Francis Green, and attained an A.B.
degree at Gettysburg College has re-
markable absorptive powers. His patients
in clinic wait in a big long line for treat-
ment, so we feel no concern about the
kind of a physician he will make.

"Art", the "big man" of the class
from the suburbs of New York City,
does not rest on the laurels of his
physical greatness. Determined to be
the best Osteopath in his state, he probes
and investigates, quizzes and interpolates,
until, to his profs he becomes an enigma
and to his patients a man of wisdom.
With Art, Osteopathy is the greatest
science, but he does not permit it to
confine his intellect. He conducted re-
search in the Rockerfeller Research
Laboratory in 1928, and since entering
the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy,
his interest in chemistry has won for
him a membership in a prominent
chemical society.
Harry E. Friberg
Harry is one of the boys from Chicago
and if you ask him, he certainly can
give you the dope on this Osteopathy
stuff. Rudy Vallee may be a smooth
singer but he has nothing on Harry in
the way of smooth charm for women.
The girls of the class vie with each other
for first place, but Harry is impartial,
giving equal attention to all. Back in
Somerville, Massachussetts, we under-
stand, he was also somewhat of an
athlete as well as a musician. Our Col-
lege certainly feels complimented in his
making it his choice for the last two
years, and we are certain he will con-
tinue to make hosts of friends through-
out his most assuredly successful pro-
fessional career as easily as he has among
the Class of '32.

Everyone likes Claire, she is like a

Her frankness is her sincerity and her
every possession yours for the asking.
Radcliffe gave her the Bachelor of Arts
degree in 1928. Claire's major work was
in Chemistry — but that is a secret. An'
other secret is that she was graduated
from the Falton Praisoforte School in
Boston. You've probably guessed Boston
is Claire's home. On the surface, it ap'
pears incompatible that a student doctor
could and would take a southern trip in
the middle of a second semester — Yet,
you know Claire and so you know it is
perfectly and properly done.

and you will find that he has a heart
of gold. He does not wish to appear to
study, yet one who starts with the Class
of '32 and finds himself with it at the
end of three years is not an idle student.
Greg is a wizard on the piano. He
doesn't need an instructor, never did;
doesn't even need a piece of music. All
he requires is that someone whistle the
melody if he never heard it before, and
he will rattle it off with all the thrills
and trills of an accomplished musician.

Bill is one of the husky Phi Sig
athletes. Basketball, baseball, track, and
football, all fascinate his fancy and profit
by his efforts. Next to athletics. Bill
specializes in wise cracks, most of \which
are given in an undertone in class, loud
enough for his fellowmen to hear, but
not audible to those for whom intended,
which if they were, would make them
unwise cracks if the victim happens to
be on the platform. A fiery man is Bill,
and a sportsman. At cups or at cards,
not to speak of dances, he can be counted
on to hold his own and to accept defeat
with the same equanimity that he accepts
success.

We defy anyone to win an argument
from Hersh once he starts with logical
ground to work on. His ability to ex-
press himself in proving his points is one
that we all envy and such an ability is
only gained by establishing the worth
while contacts of which he can boast.
Hersh arose from the mob of common
bachelors last year and assumed the duti-
ful seat of husband, and recently proud
father. We are pleased to discover that
in spite of additional responsibilities he
still maintains an eagerness to retain his
intimate friends. We can think of no
one whose friendship has grown so
rapidly nor whose view-points have ex-
panded so broadly in a scant three years
of new associations.

HofF is a quiet, reserved, unassuming
fellow, who it is rather difficult to
describe more thoroughly than does the
above lines by Pope. In the class you
would never know more about him than
"just another student," who laboriously
takes notes, comes to classes on time, and
leaves at dismissal. However, from his
sister at home we learned that he has
had a great struggle to study Osteopathy,
that he earned and is earning every cent
of his educational training, and that he
was so ambitious in his Freshman year
as to practice his technique on the family
poodle, curing it of a long standing case
of rhinitis. We voice no doubts for the
future success of such a man.

Beth is truly Philadelphian — Philadel-

poor unsuspecting populace. Beth comes
in smiling in the morning and goes home
smiling at night — a disposition enviable
in this day and place. What is more
she seems to thoroughly enjoy every
minute of her time spent here.
Elizabeth writes poetry now and then
— much of it has appeared in P. C. O.
publications. This year she was awarded
a key for work on the Axone staff, Beth
also lists among her hobbies music and
art — from them she seems to derive
miuch pleasure. In addition to the grave
responsibility of occupying a seat near
the front of the classroom, Beth has this
year been secretary of the class records.

Bob is one of these fellows who sur-
prises us by showing hidden ability at
a time when it is most needed. Bob has
been given many distasteful duties about
school, but he always comes up smiling
asking for something more to do. He en-
joys doing those jobs that mean so much
and go so far to render a big under-
taidng complete. His work on the Axone
Staff was of such a nature that he was
chosen without hesitancy for a position
on the Synapsis Staff as a Literary
Editor, and the results of his diligent ef-
forts may be found under the heading
of Organizations. Work of this kind
entails many interviews and altercations
among fraternities and sororities so that
it requires a man of Bob's easiness of
nature to compile such writings in a
manner pleasing to all.
Pop's greatest claim to fame is his
exhaustive study of those things pertain-
ing to the greatest of all sciences — nerv-
ous anatomy, and diseases of the nervous
system. He surely keeps our profs on
the jump with his pointed inquiries.
Last summer, working as a traffic cop
up in Massachussetts he kept the erring
motorist on the jump. And there is no
doubt in our minds that when he gets
out in practice he will keep us all on
the jump to try to emulate his income.
His accomplishments have been almost
unbelievable. Going to college all day,
working in an American Store all eve-
ning and all day Saturdays, taking care
of his splendid Nev^ England wife, and
being one of the best students in the
Class besides, are attainments of which
he could, but never does, boast.

who comes from the foot of Capitol

will be making laws if not history, if a
love for learning has anything to do with
the future greatness of a man. For
seldom is Harry seen without his nose
in a book, and the questions he pops to
his profs often go over our heads. We
are sure the profession in Harrisburg is
eagerly awaiting his return to their midst,
for he will not only take with him his
scholarship, but a sweet and demure
Mrs. Leonard whom we have already
come to know and love.

"Bud" is another one of those fellows
who always seems to come through.
Though rather quiet and unassuming one
can tell by watching Bud that his powers
of concentration are always at play, and
we defy most anyone (including Dr
Green,) to catch him off his guard.
In School and out he has a string of
friends who have all they can do to
keep from imposing on his everlasting
good-nature and willingness. If straight-
forwardness of purpose and undivided
concentration of effort are two qualities
that determine a professional success,
we can predict a brilliant future for Bud,
whether he chooses to practice among
his friends in Frankford or among total
strangers.

'The gentle minde by gentle deeds is kno
For a man by nothing is so well bewrayed
As by his manners."
Like SO many other students in this
College, Doug has been in restraint sini'
ply because the school does not embrace
enough activities to suit his abilities, or
does he bone the hours of recreation
away?
We envy Dougs easiness of manner
and of self-possession, in fact he is to
be classed as "smooth." One pictures
him in post-college life as mingling with
what is termed the better class and of
handling successfully a practice who
drive up to his porte cochere in highly
polished limousines. Lest we do not do
justice to Dougs accomplishments, we
only ask you to step into the classroom
while a student is trying to speak to the
class, and receive a sample of his
ventriloquism.
Ed comes from the beautiful British
Isles, the grand old land of John Bull,
on whose dominions the sun never sets.
Before coming to Philadelphia he pursued
his studies in Christopher College, near
London. His chief delights are music
and art, and surely they are appropriate
and well chosen. For John Galsworthy
never held an ace with Ed. His charm-
ing manners, his gentle personality, and
his regal command of the king's own
English, make him the personification of
"The Perfect Gentleman." We Am-
ericans who learned io know him, will
always think more highly of Old Eng-
land for her splendid representative, Ed
Miller.
Kenneth H. Mulkin

Ken comes from Oil City, Pennsyl-
vania, where big oil men smoke wicked
looking cigars, play poker with inverted
diamond rings, and sleep with their boots
on. He studied in Grove City College
and came to us a grave and serious man.
His friends are few, not from necessity,
but from choice, for he chooses seldom,
but well. Knowing his attributes we feel
we can predict for Ken a brilliant future,
for his air of gravity, his spirit of
solemnity, his habits of sobriety, and his
serious sanctity will surely classify him
as a profound physician, with a mind
which works harder than his tongue and
a knov.'ledge born of observation. From
recent observation between classes we
find among us a sportsman of unquench'
able spirit.
Karleen Nash
the neighborhood to
Karleen's is the instructor's ever

Karleen was born in Chicago, attended
schools in Wilmington and Germantown,
and went a year to the Boston School
of Physical Education. Last year she
supplemented her training here by a
year at Lake Erie College, Ohio. We
cannot say too much of this girl's
athletic ability — for example, she was a
member of the varsity hockey team
which played the All-American team last
year.
Socially and professionally, Karleen
has affiliations we envy and if these mean
anything we prophesy a brilliant career
for this classmate.

We see little of Earle in extra cur-

of his lesser fortune of working his way
through a hard four years of college
draws nothing but commendation. We
feel that Earle could add much to our
athletic standing, for it is supervision of
work of this kind that opened the way
for him to study Osteopathy. Due to his
busy outside life, those of us who are
able judge of human character by short
acquaintance, feel it worth our while to
enjoy his friendship and we can only
predict a just reward for one who has
striven so conscientiously to attain his
goal.

Pete is the big Cardio- Vascular man
from Rochester, New York, while the
class is not just as well acquainted with
him as it is with some of its other mem-
bers, it is rumored that he is an intimate
friend of Dr. Landis of the U. of P., who
contributes to the text-book bearing his
name.
Pete's accomplishments are too varied
to be numerated in this brief writing, but
he is famous as the Rip Van Winkle of
the Class. Whole theories have been
builded and abandoned by the professors
and students as to how Pete can absorb
lectures while he is seemingly oblivious
to what is going on in Class, but he
evidently has a faculty which none of the
rest of us have.

Although "Carm" comes from way up
North in Canada. Philadelphia as-
sociates thawed him out and found a
warm heart beneath his crust of ice and
snow. He is one of these people who
is always busy, but Carm is wise in those
things with which he chooses to busy
himself for he knows hospital routine
from beginning to end, having been night
superintendent of the Pennsylvania Hos-
pital and at present assisting in the De-
partment of Roentgenology in our own
hospital. With all his "ado about every-
thing" "Carm" has had the time to make
hosts of friends inside and outside of his
direct fraternal connections.
Bud comes from a family of Osteo-
paths, and whether it can be attributed
to heridity or no, those who know him
must admit that he is one of the most
level-headed men in the class. To those
who know him least, he may sometimes
appear contradictive and argumentative,
but to him, a thing that isn't logical
simply has no place in his ratiocinate.
Never advance to him a theory or an
argument unless it has a scientific back-
ing, for even Mendel couldn't put one
over on him. His professional bearing
and diplomatic procedure will surely win
for him a classical future.

Who is there among us who has never
envied Barb her absolute poise, her calm
and unassuming nature? Surely these
characteristics are fundamental among
the prequisites of a physician.
Barb isolated herself for two years
after high school in the little town of
Norton, Massachusetts, attending
Wheaton College. She is more or less
of an athletic soul and has never been
known to refuse a game of tennis or a
hike. Music holds a place in her life —
and we have been told Barb has talent of
her own. This young woman would be
a first rate traveling companion, for she
has relatives in any given place.
Rig is, without a dissenting voice, the
best student in the class. Not only has
he the best didactic comprehension of
his subject, but he is the most practical
physician. Going thru life with a handi-
cap which would have left the average
man lying by the wayside long ago, he
still continues to perform wonders. A
student of George Washington Uni-
versity, and a Doctor of Naturopathy,
Rig had a splendid groundwork for .the
study of Osteopathy. His beloved avoca'
tions are literature and debatmg. A
quiet unassuming manner, a conversa-
tion that bespeaks a philosopher, one is
made to feel, by his acquaintance, that
still waters run deep and true greatness
IS not ostentatious.

Richie fills a place in our class that
would seem empty without him. He is
right at hand with a witty come-back
and is the collegiate representative of the
gay-spirited members of P. C. O. Al-
though Richie has not been foremost in
the activities of the College we under-
stand that he uses his time to good ad-
vantage for whoever heard of him taking
re-exams? Perhaps you are wiser, Richie
for not allowing outside interests to en-
croach upon your most purposeful aim,
for few of us can undertake many enter-
prises and be successful in all. Anytime
that you feel down hearted just stop and
pass the time of day with Richie and
he'll set you right again.
George comes from that hardy old
New England stock which made that
land what she is today. His home stands
in the Gateway of the North and in
his veins pulsates blood of a hardy race
of men. George is an Osteopath to the
core. His big ambition is to be a first
class obstetrician, and from the number
of cases he has to his credit already it
certainly looks as if he is going to be
one. Back home he was the community
veterenarian, but he says delivering a
woman is so much more aesthetic than
delivering a cow. His reputation with
his Ford as "The Wild Man from
Borneo," makes us believe he will arrive
at any destination he sets as his goal.

"Lay this into your breast!

Charlie's attributes are such as to
place him in that enviable . category of
"Golden Friendship." A ruddy grin,
a pleasant disposition, and a willingness
to give you the shirt off his back, makes
him the class friend. Yet his powerful
handclasp and the flash of his eyes when
his ire is aroused, substantiates his hail-
ing from the wilds of Maine where men
are bold and women make love. Charlie
was a champion in Track back in Heb-
ron Academy and in Bates College but
his scholastic ability in P. C. O. indi-
cates that he cultivates the mind as well
as the body. His class record is excellent,
his contact with his fellow students im-
peachable, and his impression as a phys-
ician one that gains his patients' pro-
found respect.

High tribute must be paid to a student
who can boast of a scholastic average
such as Eric's. Much more than this,
however, are other admirable qualities
that do not escape attention, which we
feel that Eric has developed as well as
possessed since we have know him. Al-
ways cheerful and willing to perform
any duties asked of him, along with a
naturally sunny disposition, wins him
popularity that is of a lasting quality.
Those of us who really know him have
often discovered him reading material
that is generally though*- to be over the
heads of more mature men. But these
things are mere fiction to "Barnacle Bill",
and we often wonder how he finds time
for such perusing, along with the
voluminous assignments he memorizes.

of Philadelphia feel honored indeed to

"The Philosopher" in his Freshman year
at P. C. O. For he was then the sum-
total of despair of all those with whom
he tried to argue. In dissection room or
in assembly, in classroom or ampitheater,
he tried to prove that what is, isn't, and
what isn't, might be. As one of his
fraternity brothers expressed him, "Once
he makes up his mind, you might as well
talk to a stone wall." But a few years
of mingling with a professional brother-
hood has done worlds for Dave. While
he yet delves deeply into all of those
things related to the human family, his
spirit is tempered with a sense of equili-
brium, and his life with a sense of poise.

Bob goes through Osteopathy with a

convey to his patients the cheerfulness
and contented happiness he himself en-
joys he will most surely make a great
physician. At the poker table Bob is a
student of human nature, a graceful
loser and a modest winner. While some
may have a misconception of his ability
and his sincerity, we who know him best
love him best, and are confident that
beneath his gay surface lies a depth of
soul unfathomed. And our fervent hope
is that he may carry with him that
joviality when the cares of a heavy prac'

"Babe" — and this name has survived all.
Babe's keen thinking is an inspiration
to those who know her well and we can
truly say she is thoroughly sincere in this
business of becoming a doctor.
Helen came to us from Spring Valley,
N. Y. High School where she was active
in every phase of extra-curricula life.
Among her past laurels are editor of the

member of the basketball and track
teams.
This doctor's hobby is bridge and she
plays as a master. Well, what better

has his obstetrical bag completely out-
fitted with a stethoscope and a pair of
forceps. Stiney's training has been a rigid
one, for before entering Osteopathy he
ran Track two years, conducted a band,
and was on the Quartermaster Staff of
Camp Tobyhanna and Camp Mt. Gretna
two years. These, and other indications
of ability, lead us to believe he will make
a splendid soldier in the ranks of Osteo-
pathy — perhaps a general.

"No longer let mc shun my part
Amid the busy scenes of life.
But with a warm and generous heart
Stip is one of the best examples of
what a few years of daily mingling with
professional associates will do for a man.
Coming to us from a small town in
Connecticut with a boyish glee that knew
no end of boasting how much more "my
Dad knows than your Dad," he has been
cufFed and tumbled, ruffled and kicked,
until the diamond of his character has
begun to lose its roughness and the
lustre shine forth. And we feel sure
that lustre will cast abroad a beam which
shall enlighten the profession to its ut-
most corners and awaken in us a warm
glow of admiration for Stip, our class-
mate.

TOLBERT B. StRUSE, Jr.
With grace to win, with heart to hold,
^ With shining gifts that took all eyes."
—Emerson.
Tod is a Philadelphia man and a
genuine credit to the Quaker City.
Polished, refined, and always well dressed
he came to us with a gayity and a light-
ness of spirit carried over from high
school days. But a year in Osteopathy
found him adopting himself to the seri-
ousness of the situation. A scholar too,
is Tod and a gentleman of the first de-
gree. His disposition sunny, his habits
immaculate, and his manner pleasant, it
affords us real delight to write his bio-
graphy in these few lines, for we do not
need to seek for works to pad it, not at-
tempt to vainly hide his shortcomings.

When in doubt as to how to spend
your sabbatical year, consult Marion. She
has traveled far and wide, and if travel
educates one, Marion certainly be con-
sidered among the best. We envy any-
one who courageously lists "travel"
among her hobbies. Athletics holds a
definite place in her scheme of life —
especially basketball. She played for the
Lankenau School before she came here.
"Dr. van Ronk" is a name already rec-
ognized in the profession and Marion
will do her best to increase its respect —
of that we are very sure.

C. Raymond Watts
And M the
I the roll ot
Ray, another Chicago man, comes
originally from the New England town
where the Church Fathers and the
Magistrates burned the witches, A man
of silent dignity, his chief attraction
seems to center in his haughty poise, his
indefatigable bearing, and his quiet sense
of humor. A member of the trio,
"Watts, Leavitt, and Robinson," his
scholastic ability is of like high caliber
with the other two members. We are
indebted to Ray for his assistance in
organi2;ing a humor section in this book
and we can commend him upon having
a keen insight into human nature for
being able to portray some of the stu'
dents with which he has held such a
short acquaintance.
Frank L. White

her men, sleeping I
Whitey is another man that does a
great deal of work without making
much ado about it. He surely seems to
get a great deal done, for he pays his
way through Osteopathy by holding a
position as Physical Director in the
Wilmington Y. M. C. A., and in addi-
tion to this, finds time to make a women
happy, for in his Sophomore year he left
the bachelor crew and became a useful
citizen. A very good student, a man of
high ideals, and a jolly good fellow is
Whitey. If ever you want to arrange
your schedule of daily living so as to
get about four times as much work done
as you thought was ever possible, con-
sult this able gentleman.

Because of lack of space it is impos-
sible to express our entire appreciation
of one of the hardest and most sincere
workers in the College. Dot gives us
great cause to wonder when we consider
the responsible positions she has so suc-
cessfully held during a scant three years
of association with P. C. O., besides
maintaining an enviable scholastic record.
Taking over the editorship of the Axone
Dot produced a quarterly publication
that had never before been paralled, and
for which we could scarcely wait to ap-
pear as each quarter rolled around. We
regret that through unforseen circum-
stances she had to forego the editing of
this Synapsis. Lest you gather that Dot's
ability lies solely in editing just follow
her around for a seven-day week and
observe her associations. Always cheer-
ful always obligmg and always profes-
sional.

The profound, the inexplicable "Bob".
Another one of these learned gentlemen
from the Chicago College. He rarely
speaks, but when he does, he speaks as
one with authority. We cannot say the
above verse describes him as accurately
as it should, for we might change the
last line to read, "Familiar as the day in
clinic dens," for he certainly seems to
be a physician in much demand as he
bobs in and out of the long line of little
doors downstairs, clad in formal white
gown and a serious look that would do
justice to a magistrate. There must have
been left an unreplacable vacancy when
Bob left Chicago for we could never
willingly permit him to make another
change, we feel his presence is an addi-
tion to the intelligentsia of the Class.

William B. Wilson
g,.da
Bill is the portly, well nourished
gentleman from over back of Wall
Street. Somehow or other we just
couldn't get along without Bill, with his
jolly sense of humor and unquenchable
good nature. Bill says, in the olden days
it used to be that a fella would take a
coupla of ten cent cigars out of his vest
pocket and lay them on the mantle be-
fore sitting down on the sofa with his
girl, but nowadays the girl reaches for
a Lucky and doesn't give a damn whether
you're sweet or not. Bill's qualifications
do not stop with his disposition and his
sense of humor, for he is an Osteopath
to the core. We know his patients will
imbibe much of his joviality and receive
a stimulation of the sphenopalatine
ganglion psychcially if he misses the
spot physically.
P.AUL Howard Zea, Jr.

Erratic, fanciful, changeable, excitable,
generous hearted Paul. What a colorful
prismic beam is his acquaintance on the
drab screen of life. He knows but one
consistency and that is friendship. His
ideas may vascillate, his desires and am-
bitions oscillate, his opinions dubitate,
and his tastes alternate, but let him once
choose you as his friend and you are his
till the Rock of Gibralter be upset by a
herring and sink into the sea. Like
Huxley, he believes that error may not
silence a man's tongue, but drives his
conversations home along the line of his
convictions, with mind ever open to new
truths as they may be revealed to him.
Wc are convinced our profession is made
richer by the addition of this interesting
gentleman.

Junior History
President JOHN ElMERBRINK
Vice-President Eugene Casey
Secretary Beth Keitsch
Treasurer Frank A. Beidi.er
Back in the fall of '28, a group of enthusiastic truth seekers assembled at the old
Osteopathic home at 18th and Spring Garden Streets, to delve into the profundities
and morals of that grand science. Osteopathy. Our ranks were filled by a cosmopolitan
aggregation, having representatives from twelve states, Canada, England, Ireland and
France. Moreover previous college training had prepared more than forty per cent, of
our group for our future profession, which perhaps accounts for the commendatory
opinions of the faculty as to our ability surpassing that of heretofore enrollments. So
immediately our standards were established by such just complimentation and hence
our aim out of necessity had to be lofty.
The onset of organization was rapid. Our class officers were elected early and
their duties efficiently carried out. With such capable leaders, careful planning of our
dance committee and splendid class co-operation we were able to entertain our superiors
most delightfully and successfully at the Rittenhouse Hotel. Aside from this social
function our talent was employed in the entertainments supplied by the Neurone Soci'
ety to further mutual good-will toward our class-mates and upperclassmen. Few of us
can forget the unevenness of that dance floor in our classroom, where all our school
dances too place!
Fraternities and sororities appeared in the horizon of our attention early, affording
many of us enjoyable "rushes". Many of us are at present members of such organiza-
tions for the purpose of better advancing the field of our chosen profession.
Academically, our attention was constantly focused upon the necessity of learning
the bare fundamentals of our science that we prepare ourselves properly to comprehend
the scope of future practical work, fiowever, such drudgery was soon to pay dividends
for our labors, so on and on we plugged with our high aim constantly in view, always
reaping knowledge for future use. Thus, an otherwise uneventful year passed on into
the Sophomorism.
Our Sophomore year was in reality a continuation of the previous year insofar
as scholastic responsibilities were concerned, as we were still in the throes of subjects
relating to fundamentals of an even more complicated nature. However, in spite of
such basic, comparatively dull engagement we were able to get an insight into wnat our
persistent labors were to harvest.
Reorganization brought a new group of officers to continue the work of those
retiring. Our members were slightly reduced by a few who found it impossible to
continue with us. The event of this year that was outstanding in our minds as well as
everyone interested in the advancement of Osteopathy, was the occupancy of our new
college and hospital, at 48th and Spruce Streets. This, indeed was an inspiration to us
because of the facilities afforded and added to our already inspired desire to become
proficient, as well as being proud of our Alma Mater. We were rightfully proud be-
cause our share of the expense in construction of the new edifice was wiUingly borne
by our members as evidenced by the pledges gathered from our midst. The remainder
of our Sophomore year shpped by quietly while we were enjoying our new quarters.
At the conception of our Junior year we were pleasingly surprised to find and
glad to welcome six new members to our ranks from the Chicago College of Osteopathy.
At election we unanimously retained John (Pop) Eimerbrink as our Class President.
Because of his well qualified abilities to negotiate such an ofiice to the approval of all.
We feel that we owe much to "Pop" for what he has contributed to our Class in the
way of leadership and counsel, not to mention his scholastic abilities, the offices of
Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer were bestowed upon Eugene Casey, Beth
Keitsch and Frank Beidler respectively.
Early in the fall we followed in the footsteps of the Seniors by sponsoring a
Benefit Dance, the proceeds being turned over to the Campaign Fund. Just before the
Christmas holidays some of the hidden talent of the Class was whisked into the limelight
when stunts given by the diflFerent Classes were exhibited in the College auditorium
under direction of Dr. Hessdorfer.
Field trips in Hygiene throughout our first semester also called our attention to
certain matters of health and sanitation as carried out m Philadelphia, and we learned
many of the schemes whereby the public is protected from the invasion of certain
dangerous little creatures. Without exception our trip to the Mulford Laboratories was
the most illuminating of these, while at best, we can't say we would be overanxious to
review the trip to the Sewage Disposal Plant.
Our great adventure now is being student physicians in the clinic where we are
privileged to apply our knowledge of Osteopathy and watch its marvelous workings.
But for those tedious hours back in the years of seemingly endless toil little could we
do to guard our reputation. It almost seems that we are off on the right foot
inasmuch as patients swarm to the clinic beyond capacity. May we alleviate such a
condition by speeding up the discharge list to a record point. We fancy there are
hidden possibilities.

Treasurer Henry Goldner
Secretary L, LuciLE LuiNSDEN
"Now, let me see . . . I've got to find out something about this fellow Scott. I
wonder if he really deserves to pass my course. It's so important. I believe Til call
Dr. Dressier. He ought to know Mr. Scott. He seems to be quite congenial with the
students. Miss Rogers, please get me Dr. Dressier on the phone."
"Oh, hello. Hello, Dr. Dressier. I hope Fm not intruding on your time. I only
want a minute. . . . I've been looking over my reports and I can't quite convince
myself that Mr. Scott should pass this course. He has a very good paper here, but I've
concluded that marks don't mean everything, but that effort should count for some-
thing. Now for instance, Mr. McDougall, I had to ask him to sit in the front row to
hold his attention. Now, Dr. Dressier, my idea of a real student is Mr. Noeling. He
is so attentive, and it does my heart good to hear his answers, for I feel that he has
an excellent, analytic mind and has the power of true correlation. But, I surely did
have my troubles, with Miss Alleman and Mr. Adams, and Miss Bowden and Mr.
Brown. They seemed to vie with each other as to who could whisper the loudest and
the longest, and from all I hear you have encountered the same situation. I had some
difficulty in getting the attention of the class, especially when Mr. Leedy, Mr. Tom
Nicholl, Mr. Ladd, and Mr. Hilborn were rendering one of their numbers — but
really Dr. Dressier, don't you think those dear boys should have their voices trained?"
"But at that they sound better than they did last year when they had the piano
down in the old building and couldn't hit the key at the beginning to start them off.
And doctor, don't you think Miss Farrand is doing well this year considering the
number of times she slept through Anatomy last year? You know, I always felt con-
fident when I went in to teach the Freshman class last year, because I knew if anything
happened to me Black was there as my advisor, or substitute, if necessary."
"Yes, yes Dr. Dressier. I've noticed how attentive Mr. Black was in my class, —
and so quiet, I often wondered if he were asleep. And there's a dear boy in the
Sophomore class, who has a very high type mind as I have diagnosed from his dreams,
Mr. Davis, who was so interested in the work that he dearly loved to investigate the
writings of other authors who elaborated more on the nervous mechanism that Mr.
Ranson."
"Oh, yes I remember. Ranson has taken the subject matter and boiled it down,
and boiled it down, and boiled it down until every word is important. I was reading
Tinley and Riley and — "
"By the way, Mr. Paul Miller was in my office this afternoon and he has finally
philosophically accepted the inevitable and concludes that Osteopathy surpasses carbon
arc lamps. And doctor, do you suppose a carbon arc lamp would strengthen Mr.
Toomey's teeth? He seems to lose them as frequently as I do my scarfs, and poor Mr.
Willoughby! It just seems too bad that the Sophomores have so much fun at the
expense of his derby."
"I hear that Mr. Steele was very successful in demonstrating to Prof. Erb the
esteem of the class as signified by the salute offered in Chemistry lecture the other
day."
"Oh just a minute, doctor. A patient has just come in. Perhaps Fd better hang
up. I just meant to take a minute of your time. I hope I haven't interrupted. Well,
goodbye my friend."
"Goodness me! What did I call Dr. Dressier for? . . . Oh, how do you do,
Mrs. MacDonough! Come right in, this dressing room is unoccupied."

INTER-FRATERNITY— SORORITY COUNCIL
This body of students is composed of a representative of
each of the fraternities and sororities of the College. Its
purpose is to deal with the problems of interest to the or-
ganization and to pass upon rules governing rushing and
pledging throughout the year. The Council is assisted by
a Faculty governing board so that the academic standing of
the prospective members of the organization may be taken
into consideration before membership is permitted.

"The Axone" is the official voice of the student-body and expresses the students'
opinions and formulated ideas on collegiate activities and interests. Appearing at about
two month intervals throughout the school year, it brings before the student-body
scientific thought, pertinent editorials, short stories, humor and verse.
This year "The Axone" completes its first decade of existence and looks with
pride on its growth from a leaflet to a magazine befitting the institution it represents.

^A(eo Senior Honorary Society
The Neo Senior Society was founded at the Philadelphia
College of Osteopathy in 1924, by ten members of the Class
of '25. The purpose of this Society is to promote student
activities, interest in athletics, and a spirit of comaraderie
between the students and the profession at large. The mem-
bers are elected on the basis of extra curricular endeavor and
personal concern in the active phases of student life.
Sigma lAlpha Omicron
In 1924 a non-secret, honorary fraternity was established whose purpose has always
been to promote academic interest and elevate the quality of scholastic attainment
among the Osteopathic student-body.
Any Senior student, having attained a general average of 90 during the first
three and a half years of his study, and having attended 90 per cent, of all classes is
eligible. The names are voted upon by a Faculty Committee and those elected are
announced at Commencement at which time these new members are presented with
a gold key and a certificate.

The E. G. Drew Obstetrical Society Vv-as founded in 1925, to give the student-
body an opportunity to gain an added knowledge in the art of Obstetrics and by so
doing to foster an increased interest in this branch of the medical art. The Society was
named in honor of Dr. E. G. Drew, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Monthly meetings of the Society are held, at which time, Obstetrical treatises,
prepared by members, are read to the Society for the purpose of dissemination of facts
relative to the art. These papers are supplemented by valuable and interesting talks
by outside lecturer?.
The roll call is composed of the names of those Seniors who have qualified by
submitting theses on Obstetrical work and have been elected during the second semester
of the Junior year on a competitive basis. Undergraduates are cordially invited to at-
tend the monthly open meetings.

At a meeting of several members of the Class of '30, held May 7, 1928, the
Physiological Chemical Society was formed to do original research to advance, in any
way possible, the relationship of Physiological Chemistry to the Osteopathic Principles.
The basis of election to the Society is an average of at least ninety during the
Freshman and Sophomore years in Chemistry and in addition a personal record of
interest in research in the Chemical field which is acceptable to the Society.
Professors Erb and Stoertz have shown a great interest in the work carried out
by the different members and their aid has been of great value in the diiferent problems
that have arisen.
In order to foster a greater interest in our work, and to give the members of the
lower classes who are interested in Chemical research an opportunity to become more
closely associated with us, we have voted to hold monthly meetings which will be open
to anyone interested in our work. In addition the Society will elect, as associate mem-
bers, certain of the lower classmen whose work is of such quality as to be acceptable
to the Society.

Qardio-'XJascular Society
February the 2Sth, the finishing touches were appUed to the construction of a
Cardio- Vascular Society. Many problems were met and overcome. Many more shall
have to be met as they arise. The charter was drawn up and a plan of action mapped
out. A unique feature of the organisation is, that it only has one officer, the treasurer,
who will transact all business for the Society.
The object of the Society is not only to stimulate the interest of the student-body
in the subject under consideration, but to give to members an intensive study of clinical
subject matter in general. In this respect we are indeed fortunate to have the clinical
advisory board to consist of Drs. Fischer, Lloyd, and Lutz,, these being the three honor-
ary members of the Society.
It is a prime prerequisite that all members of the Society do extensive examining
and in fact, many have had rather intensive practice in these fields already.
The applicant in being judged for membership must submit a thesis, the originality
of which bears more weight than does verbosity.
The membership must of necessity be limited to six, less if need be. Each member
must take an active part in the clinical examination, thereby requiring the group to
be a small one.
Before receiving the Key of the Society, each member is presented with a clinical
case on which he will be expected to elicit physical signs, give a diagnosis and dif-
ferential diagnosis, prognosis and suggestions as the most suitable treatment. A rea-
sonable standard of correctness of same is desired.
Present members are: LeRoy Lovelidge, Jr., James C. Luker, Alfonso Merola,
George L. Miller and Paul Young.

The J. Francis Smith Neurological Society was formed near the close of the present
school year by the Class of '32. The purpose of this Society is to stimulate interest
and foster research in the various phases of neurology in its relation to the Osteopathic
concept.
The membership will be limited to twelve students who are to be chosen each year
from the Junior Class on the basis of their interest in the work and a submitted thesis.
j(^theran Student Association
Lutheran Student Work was begun in Philadelphia in 1909, by Dr. Frank M.
Miter, then director of Public Safety under Mayor Blankenburg. His interest was
centered at the University of Pennsylvania. The Lutheran Students of Philadelphia
were brought together once a year at a dinner sponsored by the leaders at the U. of P.
This was carried on until nine years ago when Rev. Robert H. Gearhart, Jr., became
Lutheran Student Pastor. Thru his efforts, meetings held at stated times each month
took the place of the annual dinner. When this proceedure was under way at Penn-
sylvania, he made an attempt to have a similar group at Temple. He was moderately
successful, but it was more than five years until the Lutheran Students were definitely
organized there.
Drexel was the next school in which Rev. Gearhart established a student group.
Hahnemann has an inactive interest in the association. The last member to join in
Philadelphia was our own college, P. C. O. Last year Rev. Gearhart started a group
here, and luncheon meetings were held alternate Thursdays. About that time a
Lutheran Student Council was formed. Two representatives from each group were
chosen to make up the Council. The chairman was elected from Temple and the
secretary from Osteopathy. Thru plans correlated by the council, several city wide
social functions and church services have been given for the combined interest of all
the Lutheran Students in Philadelphia.
Though we were delayed in resuming our meetings this year the interest and
enthusiasm has been most encouraging, and we look forward to the continuance of the
enjoyable luncheon meetings next year.

The first Newman Club was founded in 1893 at the University of Pennsylvania,
in honor of Cardinal Newman. At the present time there are more than two hundred
clubs in the various universities and colleges in the United States and Canada. The
purpose of this organization is to band the students of the Catholic faith together in
an endeavor to further the ideals of Catholicism, to encourage scholastic achievement
in the student-body, to bring about good fellowship and understanding between the
students of the Catholic Faith and those of other beliefs, and to provide, in a measure,
a means of social activity for the members.

Junior 'Prom Qommittee
The most outstanding social event of the year at P. C. O. is the Junior Prom. It
is given annually by the Juniors in honor of the graduating class.
The Committee is composed of the president of the class, a representative of each
Fraternity and Sorority in the College and also a non-fraternity representative.
This year an unusually successful dance was held at the Hotel Pennsylvania.
Great credit is due the Committee in its eiforts to make the Prom of 1931, the best ever.

1930-1931
p. C. O. closed its basketball season in Camden, being
nosed out by the Camden City College in the last few minutes
of play. The team did not bring home all the victories we
could have wished for, but it was in there, playing the game
all the time. Most of the games, in which we were on the
small end of the score, were lost by one or two points.
The prospects for a successful season during 1931-32,
are particularly bright with a large squad of eligibles that
are coming up in the Freshmen Class. Warner and Ellis are
the only two regulars lost to the team by graduation.
THE JUNIATA GAME
OSTEOPATHY, 27; JUNIATA, 24.
The cleanest and neatest game of the season was played
at Juniata College. In this game the team functioned like a
machine displaying more team work than in any other game
of the season with the scoring honors well divided. The out-
standing work of the guards, Davis and Ellis held the fast
scoring combination of Andrews and Given down to such
an extent that one basket gave the necessary margin for vic-
tory. The whole play was characterized by fast cutting of
the forv;ards, Christensen and Toomey and their ability to
upset the Juniata defense so that the guards were able to
work up the floor and score.
Purse and Beidler alternating at center were without
scoring honors, but were the pivots for the offense and broke
up many of the opponent's plays. Warner ably replaced
Davis at guard when the latter left the game on fouls.
Although we were almost snow-bound and had some dif-
ficulty in driving home, this was the most enjoyable trip of
the season.

baseball
The prospects for this sport this year are far above
those of any preceding year. For the first time in its history,
P. C. O. has a home field, close enough so that the
candidates will have a chance to practice vifithout being
hampered. It will also be possible to schedule home games
which will give the student-body a chance to see its team in
action. This will tend to stimulate more interest in this
truly American sport as well as an incentive to spur the team
on to more worthy efforts for dear old P. C. O.
There is more interest evidenced this year as seen by
the large number of applicants for the team. Captain Parker
is the only "regular" lost to the team by graduation. This
leaves a hole in the keystone combination that must be filled.
The mainstay of the pitching staff will again be Ferren,
the Gettysburg College Alumnus who occupies the mound
credibly. "Red" Ellis, the slugging catcher will again be
holding up the former's curves and fast ones. There are a
number of battery candidates from the lower classes trying
to make the grade as batten.' men.
With the exception of second base, the infield will be in-
tact again this year with the flash> Captain Warner holding
down the hot corner in his inimitable style. Brown, the clever
shortstop, will ably guard that position of the infield, Beidler
and Miller fighting it for possession of the initial sack. The
latter can also serve them if called upon.
In the outfield such dependable fielders as Hartzell,
Toomey, E. Garland, L. Garland and Willoughby will en-
deavor to hold their places. These men will all have to show
their best to retain their positions against the onslaught of
some of the real grave prospects that are trying out this year.

Track
A call was issued on March 1 1 , for track candidates and great interest was shown,
particularly by the Freshmen Class. Dr. Secor outlined plans for the coming season and
suggested that an attempt be made to arrange a series of dual meets with Drexel,
Haverford, Swarthmore and West Chester Normal. With about eight or ten candidates
out for the quarter-mile the outlook for winning the City College Championship in the
Penn Relays is exceedingly bright.
Drexel Field at 46th and Haverford Avenue, will be used for practice and it is
hoped that due to the interest shown we shall be able within the next year or two to
have a complete team, satisfactorily equipped, to engage in meets throughout the State.
McKelvie, one of the mainstays of the relay team assisted by Beidler, will have
charge of the team and workouts will begin within the next week. Both these men
have had a vast amount of experience in track and with the number of candidates
expressing a desire to qualify for the team it is hoped that Osteopathy will take a place
in track circles throughout the City and State.
Candidates :
Senior — Dr. McKelvie; Juniors — Beidler, Calmar, Rowe, Dealy; Sophomores — P.
Miller, Grimes; Freshmen — Newman, Tienvieri, Hornbeck, Shaw, Coryell, Keens,

"Bowling
Much interest was shown in bowHng this year by the
under-graduate body. There was no inter-collegiate team,
but rather the formation of a five team league composed of
the faculty and each of the under-graduate classes.
This, arrangement gave a larger number of "bowlers" a
chance to show their skill and enjoy the matches. Many who
did not join in the bowling were there to cheer their class
teams on. The rivalry was keen and close right down to the
last match. The Juniors were headed for a certain place
at the top of the League until they were trimmed by the
Seniors, in the last match by a very slender margin.
In a keenly contested and bitter match these same
Seniors were forced to drop a match to the Faculty. This
finished the season with the Faculty holding first place.
Qolf
The team representing P. C. O. last year made a number of trips to neighboring
colleges and played some interesting matches.
The prospects for the coming season are brighter than of a year ago, with all
members of last year's team eligible again this year.
A schedule has been arranged with other colleges by Lincoln Ladd, Manager of the
P. C. O. team. Of chief interest will be the matches with our own faculty.
The Osteopathic expressions of Drs. Drewes, Street and Fischer at their partly
manipulations of the little white fill lesioned in sand are to be anticipated with great
enjoyment by the College team. Our Dean has been known to open up a bit during
similar predicaments. Golf is more or less in its infancy at P. C. O. nevertheless an
enjoyable season is anticipated.

Tennis
The Philadelphia College of Osteopathy Tennis Team
will inaugurate the opening of the outdoor season against St.
Joseph's College, with brighter prospects than they have had
in the past few years. This is due to the fact that Dr. Carl
Fischer, former intercollegiate titleholder, will coach the
Tennis squad. In addition to this the team will have home
courts conveniently located, and in excellent shape at their
disposal. This is quite a step forward and will enable the
team to play matches on a home'and'home basis, arouse more
interest among the student-body and provide another source
of health-giving exercise. The squad itself is composed of
veterans, every member of last years varsity being eager and
willing to fight for his post. This group consists of Christcn-
sen, Ramsay, Goldner, Adams, Shuman and Fagan. Among
the new candidates, Dickerman, Steele, Brown, Garland and
Ladd show much promise. The indoor season just closed,
consisted of dual matches at the Penn A. C. which ended
in favor of Penn A. C. A feature of the indoor season was
the broadcasting of the second tennis match over station
WCAU.

Internes
Near the termination of the year, competitive examinations are given to those
Seniors who may desire an internship in the Hospital. Not alone is the student
chosen by his grade on the examination, but by his attitude while treating in the
clinics, and during his Senior internship as found acceptable by a faculty com-
mittee. These Physicians are put on the various services as General, Surgical,
Obstetrical, and Laboratory Diagnosis, and much practical knowledge is gained in the
work of these departments.
One or two, showing the greatest interest in the work, may he held over as
Senior Residents for the following year at the end of which time, they may take the
Surgical Board Examinations.

The Junio7'S Invade The Qlinic
Second of February and what it meant
Was the Seniors left and the Juniors went —
To the cHnic.
Six score patients looked around
Some were white and some were brown —
In the clinic.
Timidly were names called out
Later the Juniors began to shout —
In the clinic.
Patients popped up here and there
Saying: "Me?" or "Here" or "Where?" — .
In the clinic.
The Juniors went to work with vim
To crack a neck or pull a chin —
At the clinic.
Patients there to cure their ills
All were tired of taking pills —
Thus the clinic.
Now the Juniors feel quite proud
Mingling with the ailing crowd —
In the clinic.
Grab a glass and drink a round
They are out to gain renown —
In the clinic.
Later you will hear them say,
When asked where they learned technique so gay,-
"In the clinic".
The Qlass of ^32 in ^ 52-Q
Walter Axtell — Pianos moved for all occasions.
Barnie — Is successfully establishing a practice on the children whose mother he pre-
vented from drowning. They say he still maintains his specialty.
Orrin L. Beach — Has returned to that overproductive profession of selling electric
sun.
Francis Beall — Sees his three patients daily. It is rumored that he is still playing
under "90" at the club daily.
Milky Beidler — Is busy treating athletic teams in his own quiet way.
Larry Bennett — Struggling along with the rest of the Massachusetts practioners.

a host of friends.

received on the platform in the name of the science of the Osteopathic lesion.
Harry Davis — Has retired into the woods and the last report was that he had just
finished a very profitable fishing season and also had increased the sale of pipe
tobacco. Harry always did have an affinity for tobacco and its wrappers.
Frank Dealy — Has been appointed as first ambulance driver for the Gomez sanitarium,
which only goes to show that one can really make a college training useful.

Millie DuBell — Is enjoying a very successful practice of friends and relatives.
Tom Dunleavey — Actually had that fishing trip last year with Dr. Drew.

fifteen years in this capacity he has retired with the distinction of never having
won a championship. It is rumored that he has accumulated a large fortune
on the money he invested as the result of betting against the Quakers. We
don't blame Jack in the least. He always did understand athletic clubs.
John Eimerbrink — Besides enjoying a profitable practice he is very content to spend
his Sunday afternoons with his grandchildren.
Dot Evans — Has again returned to active practice, her son being a concrete example
of her ability as a pediatrician.

was responsible for the closure of the box office.
Bessie Keitsch — Is still giving colonics in the P. C. O. clinic.

in civihzation and is surprised to hear that the mothers are telling the story

Carm Pettapice — Has been very successful in his practice in Canada. "Carm" still
has his weakness for x-rays. We hope that it has not yet had its effect, but
we hope that "Carm" still retains his ability to see thru a subject.
Bud Prescott — Has established a clinic with his brother.
Barb Redding — This girl deserves a lot of credit. She is carrying her ability that she
demonstrated in college into fields where she can do a lot of good.
Rig Reigner — Establishing himself in Florida, has done a lot in regard to neurological
research.
Ritchie — Head physician and cheer leader director at Upton College.
Robbie — Has established a clinic whereby he can study further the reactions that
women manifest under the present advancements of women suffrage. It is
rumored that George is beginning to appreciate the women's point of view.
Stan Rowe — Has been successful in his practice in Maine. Stan also has been appointed
to the State Board of Examiners. He always did want to get next to the exams.
Eric Sailer — We haven't heard much from him. Hope that he is still enjoying life in
his own "quiet way."
Al Schlacter — Is smoking cigarettes in front of his father and mother.
Lloyd Seyfried — Has opened a urinalysis laboratory. He always did meet with success
in chemical combinations.

Babe Spence — Not much has been heard from Helen of late, but it is rumored that
she has completed what she set out to do. However, she is remembered as
always having been clever.
Stiney — Stiney has opened up in Harrisburg. There always was a powerful attraction
for him there even if it is his home town.

how he and his "side kick" are running a race for first place in teaching —
especially in cranial nerves for which he is especially noted.
Tod Struse — Has incorporated with Dr. Py in teaching Bacteriology. He has a
microscope of his own.
Pete Talmage — Pete has settled down and at present is worried about his son who
says even less than he did.

Frank White — As a physical director he is a success.
Dot Willgoose — Is still editing four magazines, president of six organisations, possesses
a very active mind and has completely forgotten marriage.
Bill Wilson — Sparring partner for the coming world's champion.

(Concerning the ^^(Carr'ied ^JMen
The annual meeting of "The Slaves of Eros" was held in the P. C. O. boiler-room
on the first day of April, 1931. The roll call was taken and look who answered:
Axtel, Beach, Beall, Holhrook, Eimerbrink, Leavitt, Leonard, Hershey, German, White
and Evans. Others were called but luckily didn't answer. The object of the meeting
was to determine as far as possible the advantage of Freud over the unmarried state.
It is impossible to state here the arguments advanced by Leavitt and Axtell, but you
will have to take our word for it that they were brief and to the point.
The next topic of discussion was the present state of their scholastic standing,
various points were introduced — yes — they were all high and nothing to be ashamed
of, but all can't take the roll call and bet on the football games.
The next article that was discussed was that of handshaking and "playing the
profs." At this point in the meeting they all became very indignant as to which one
was "to take out" Ferren. Various members were nominated, but Beach was un-
animously elected.
In regard to the question of stalling the Professors during their lectures many were
called but Leonard and Hershey were congratulated and given gold keys on which
were inscribed: "To you who have served us faithfully —
Your questions have been timely and impossible."
At this point time was called and the doors were thrown open. It was ten o'clock
and it was the "wife's" night out — "Yes with the unmarried men". Perhaps you
would be interested to know that one of the babies was found missing — we all grieve
with Leonard.
The meeting was resumed at 11:30; Leavitt made a nomination that the subject
for their next meeting be an experimental Psychoanalysis and named one of the
group to be the object — but alas; poor Holbrook was so severely injured that the
doctor's orders were a year in a sanitarium.
The meeting was rudely interrupted at this point by a Ford crashing outside the
window — please, don't get alarmed for it was only Robinson with Leavitt's wife.
Editor's note: "This only goes to prove that there ain't no good in women — or men
either for that matter.
Among the new members nominated we find the name of Stan Rowe. We really
wish Stan all the luck in the world for they really aren't a bad outfit to get in with.
Meeting adjourned and the married men all went home with their ever loyal
wives and their howling kids. Do we envy them? Well that is the question.

Dear Son:
Marriage is a wonderful institution if you find
the right mate. The best advice I can give you
is to compare your girl to your mother, with
whom I have been so ideally happy for the last
thirty years. If she can even approximate your
dear mother's home-making, housekeeping and
always even temper, you are a lucky young man,
and I give you my blessing and advise you to
grab her at once.
Your loving father.

When a man devotes himself to intellectual
pursuits, it sometimes leads to distinction, when
a girl tries it, it merely leads to extinction.
Error
Some women are so careless they will leave
anything about for the maid to pick up, as is
shown by one in St. Louis who names her maid
as co-respondent.

"IS THAT GIRL POPULAR?"
"Is that girl popular?" Say that girl is as hard
to meet as the last payment on a fur coat.
In the old days women used to lean over a
back fence to learn the latest scandal. Now they
lean over a tabloid.
She: "Your lips are all covered with lip stick!"
Golf Enthusiast: "Then I'll have to kiss you
again — I always replace my divots!"
Her Father: "You want to wed my daughter?
My answer depends on your financial position."
Prospective Son-in-Law: "'What a coincidence!

POINTS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE
USEFUL
To make a complete neurological examination
It takes from eight to ten hours and five sheets
of paper.
A professional school must receive instructions
in "The Modern Way of Teaching." What
would the Junior lectures amount to if this plan
be adopted?
We all should try commuting — then we could
abolish the eight o'clock class.
What the clinic needs is better ventilation.
Why doesn't somebody establish a free cardio-
vascular clinic?
Don't get the idea that this Junior year is
hard, wait till you hit the State Boards.

The term "all wool, a yard wide" is the hall-mark of
quality in fabrics.
But it is known that there are different grades of wool
and still the term "all wool, a yard wide" could be
truthfully applied to all, even to the inferior grades
made over from wool which has been renewed.
It is the quality that counts.
It is equally true of Printing — quality of paper, of
typography, of workmanship.
"Quality Printing, as we do it, costs no more and is
definitely superior."
