1934

Cleveland continues to be the most active '34 publishing area. John Anderson's book, Always In Love, which is autobiographical and covers his life at Dartmouth, keeps hitting high numbers on the sales chart. Richard Campen's Distinguished Homes of Shaker Heights his 10th book in the last 20 years s rolling with over 500 copies sold within three weeks in one Cleveland bookstore.

Hanover is always good for surprise encounters. In the Coop Food Store I spotted Henry Bryan, up from Delaware and ready to fill his nephew's shopping cart for a trip north of here. Another time I met a smiling Helen Clark, more expected since she's a longtime Hanover resident. Next fall I may see Mary June Wilson visiting Hanover, since a grandson, Andrew Pearson, is a Dartmouth '95 and loves it here. Any other '34 grandchildren here these days?

Arne Yensen reports on a fine year: a trip to Alaska, a family visit in Oregon, a cruise down Central America and through the Panama Canal, an Elderhostel in Illinois, and an 80th birthday surprise party.

As reported in the 1934 Newsletter, GeorgeEngel, residing in Rochester, N.Y., has been lauded for founding a whole new understanding of how medicine should be combined with science and personal evaluation that the clinical engagement of physician and patient can be a scientific enterprise. He pioneered use of film and audio and videotape in studying human interactions; but as George points out, the physician can't just operate scientifically, cally, but must take into account the patient, the social context in which die patient lives, plus the role of health care. There's a need to unlock the patient through proper clinical interview.
