Medical School

When you visit Hanover now, you will find the Medical School administrative forces located in their new quarters on North College Street. After all the years of bumping into one's neighbor every time one stood up, it is taking quite a lot of adjusting! We hope you will visit us soon, especially if you did not see the offices at the Convocation.

To attempt to answer a question frequently posed, it is expected that some floors of the new building will be ready for classroom use shortly after January 1. Presently, however, classes are being held in our old quarters.

Our current first-year class presents quite a change from past classes in that Cornell, Denison, Harvard, Holy Cross, and Radcliffe are represented. Yes, the last named is correct the sex barrier has been broken! The integration of these students with the eighteen Dartmouth students is progressing very smoothly.

Since our last, the Department of Microbiology has been augmented by the additions of Clarke T. Gray, Ph.D., as Associate Professor and Samuel F. Conti, Ph.D., as Instructor. Doctor Gray, who earned his B.S. at Eastern Kentucky State and his Ph.D. at Ohio State, has been associated for ten years with the Department of Bacteriology and Immunology at Harvard, and spent the last year on a Guggenheim Fellowship at Oxford. Doctor Conti holds a B.S. from Brooklyn, an M.S. from Connecticut, and a Ph.D. from Cornell, and recently has been doing research at Brookhaven. Doctor Frederick Dallenbach, who received his A.B. and M.D. from Illinois, has joined the Department of Pathology as an Assistant Professor. His teaching experience includes appointments at Illinois and Harvard, and he has done special studies at Bonn and Dusseldorf in Germany. The Department of Biochemistry has as a new instructor, Doctor Patricia L. Broberg, B.A. Minnesota, M.S. and Ph.D. Wisconsin. She has held teaching and/or research assignments at Wisconsin, Ohio State, and Brandeis.

Dr. William L. McLaughlin has resigned as Instructor in Urology and has opened an office for private practice in San Francisco.

Jack Smith M'27 (Captain to you!) has moved from Norfolk to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. Sumner Moulton M'53 started a residency in Internal Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in July. Maya and John Moran M'55 have ventured into the home owners' class in Hingham, Mass. Phil Johnson M'49 has begun the practice of Radiology in Montclair. N. J. Flash Onofrio M'55 married the Admiral's daughter, Judy Tyree, this last May, and is now at the Mayo Clinic for residency training. Jay Chandler M'55 is now working at the Naval Hospital at Newport, R. I. The Larry Seymours M'57 welcomed a new daughter recently and the Dick Ruels M'57 finally got that boy.
