Medical School
THE SCHOOL WILL CONCLUDE THE first semester in two weeks and the Second Year Class is already in the throes of transfer arrangements. What acceleration has done to ages can best be shown by the fact that there is one student in that class who has yet to pass his twentieth birthday. There are several on the Faculty who feel that the speed-up has done something to their ages also.
