The Department of Oral Diagnosis:
Progress Report
David F. Mitchell) Professor and Chairman It has been ten years since a report on
this department has be n made to the alumni. There hav been changes in staff, proc <lure, and physical facilities of the area. It seems pertinent to review these changes, invite visits to the depart- ment, and urge all d ntists to use the department as a consultation center for problems in diagnosis.
The purpose of this department are three-fold: ( 1) To teach students the technic of establishment of a diagnosis.
Special efforts are made to corr late the basic health sciences with the clinical sciences in endeavoring to teach the stu- dent to appreciate his role as a dentist in the preservation of o-eneral health as well as oral health. (2) To admit patients for general and special clinics throughout the school. More than 10,000 patients visit the clinic each year and are routed to the special areas of the school for treatment by students under supervision.
It is recognized that not all of these people can have all of their dental care per- formed here and yet there is a continuino- need for large numbers of patients to be used in the teaching of clinical oral diagnosis, radiographic examination, oral surgery, and other special clinics. (3) To serve as a consultation clinic for the dental practitioners of the state. Special, un- usual cases which can be used for teach- ing purposes are welcome and we request that the practitioner refer them direct to the department with some written details of the problem, and his wishes as to how far we should go in diagnosis and treatment. If recent radiographs or study models or other auxiliary aids to diagnosis also are furnished it may save the patient some time.
Four cubicles have been established through the use of partitions, and in each 4
cubicl a dental unit, chair, and cabinet are present. (Figure 1). Pulp testers, air and water ar available and viewboxes and enlarged bracket tables to hold the written records have been installed. In addition to these four units another cubicle has been established for the care of the emergency patient. (Figure 2.) Minor emergency treatment procedures are employed here if they can be used as a learning exercise for the student, and at the same time, tide the patient over until further care can be received in the special clinics. In addition, the area has been painted, and air conditioned, and a tile floor has been placed in an effort to make the first visits of the patient to the school pleasant exeperiences.
Thirty lectures devoted to oral diagnosis are given to the junior students. Stress is placed on the complete clinical ex- amination induding abnormalities to be detected in general body characteristics, the face, neck and hands, lips and checks, tongue, floor of mouth, palate and pharynz, gingivae, the teeth themselves, their occlusion, the temporo-mandibular joints, salivary glands and regional lymph nodes.
For clinical experiences, each junior and senior student is assigned to the clinic at various intervals for a total of one weeks time during each year. Ad- ditional time is spent on a volunteer basis, especially during the summer months.
The diagnosis of the individual patient is usually accomplished during the course of two visits. On the first visit a general examination is made for gross abnormality and a complete interrogation regarding the general health status is performed, and radiographs are ordered. The patient then is sent for radiographs, and dismissed (Continued on page 6)
Figure 1. Shows three of the new cubicles in use. Besides the partitions which provide a greater degree of privacy during the examination and interrogation, other innovations such as the enlarged bracket tables and X-ray viewboxes may be seen.
Figure 2. The emergency cubicle is furnished with a new chair and complete dental unit including a new unipolar pulp tester. The cabinet is equipped for the emergency needs of patients as well as for special diagnostic procedures involving the use of such techniques as study models, salivary duct probes and others.

after they are made. Lat r the films ar developed, dried and mounted. The patient returns at a lat r date to be seen for a d tailed dental and periodontal ex- amination with the aid of the radio- graphs on the viewbox at the chairside.
In the clinic, attempts are made to stress the actual technics for diagnosis including pulp tests, exavation and ex- ploration, palpation, percussion, thermal tests, and referral for biopsy, cephalome- trics, blood and urine chemistry, and other diagnostic measures available in the school or hospitals. In addition, a three-hour discussion is held with small groups of junior students each week, during which the techniques of establishing bleeding time, clotting time, and blood pressure are practiced by the students on one an- other. Transillumination and the (rather limited) use of the Woods light or other special instruments for diagnostic purposes are demonstrated, and problems of radio- graphic interpretation are illustrated and discussed.
Clinical research on several problems is being conducted or anticipated. Co- ordinated research activ1t1es at the Muscatatuck State School are in progress. Consultation with other institutions of the state is in effect. Laboratory facilities have been made available in conjunction with the Department of Oral Histopath- ology wherein research in periodontal disease, caries, and tissue reaction to dental materials is in progress.
The following case history illustrates the role of the clinic in cases ref erred for consultation and/ or treatment. A 14 year old girl was referred by a dentist in a neighboring community for diagnosis and treatment of a painless, fungating growth springing from a radiolucent area in her right mandibular molar region. (See Figures 3, 4 and 5). The patient had been aware of the presence of pathology in the area for one year and the growth had increased in size over several months.
About one year ago an acute swelling (Continued on page 27)

Figure 3. A large, firm, red, granular, fungat- ing growth is present in the lower right second
and third molar areas.
Figure 4. This large radiolucent area of bone destruction involving the distal periapical por- tion of the lower first molar and the un- erupted second and third molars also shows the presence of superimposed, altered trabecular bone pattern which sometimes is present in areas of active bone repair superimposed on an area of previous bone destruction.
Figure 5. The occlusal view of the area illustrates the bucco-lingual degree of expan- sion of the alveolar plates of bone around the radiolucent area of bone destruction.
President's Message
H. ]. Healey, President, l.U.S.D. Alumni Association
To the members of the I.U.S.D. Alumni Association:
As President of the School of Dentistry Alumni Association, I appreciate this op- portunity to discuss with you this im- portant organization of the University and the School of Dentistry. Now in its thirteenth year following its post-war reorganization in 1945, the Association has enjoyed progressive success and popularity. I am happy to express the gratitude of the other officers and mem- bers of the Board of Directors for the past cooperation and assistance which we have received from the members of the Association.
Your attention is directed to certain alumni activities which took place as usual during the mid-winter meeting of the Chicago Dental Society in early February.
The traditional alumni room was open once again on the fifth floor of the
Conrad Hilton. Many members and friends visited and used the room and enjoyed get-togethers with classmates and others. At Tuesday noon during the Chicago meeting the annual Alumni As- sociation luncheon was held in the Conrad Hilton. A capacity number was in attend- ance and honored guests included Federal Judge John S. Hastings, President of the I.U. Board of Trustees, Dean G. D.
Timmons and John E. Buhler, each an alumnus of I.U.S.D. and Phil Dickens, head coach of the I. U. football team.
The latter presented an address in his own inimitable manner. Dean Maynard K. Hine extended the official greetings for the School of Dentistry.
For the other officers and the Board of Directors, I extend a cordial invitation to each of you, your wife, family and friends to attend the 1958 annual meeting
(Con~nued on page 29)
Retiring president, Dr. Walter A. Crum, Richmond, congratulates the new president, Dr.

J.
Healey, Indianapolis, as President-elect Willard Damm, Evansville, observes.7
Dean Hine reports that ...
Plans for the addition to our dental school are now completed, and actual construction should start in a few weeks.
If all goes as well as it could, it will be possible to move into the new buildina by the time the dental school starts in the fall of 1959. While this is somewhat later than we had originally hoped, we count ourselves lucky to have this ad- dition made available to us. The delay has also given us more time to spend on study of the freshman curriculum and will make it possible to get organized in the new extensive Basic Health Science building before moving into the new dental school addition. Incidentally, equ- ipping the new basic science building with its complex variety of teaching laboratories for biochemistry, physiology, gross anat- omy pathology, microbiology etc., has proved to be most difficult and time-con- suming. Rapid progress is being made now, so that at least part of the building should be available for use in May of this year.
The new 105-apartment building for married students, about two blocks west of the dental school, has now been com- pleted and will be ready for occupancy by March 1. We are also promised that the new wing for our Union Building which will house 250 single students will be completed by mid-September of this year. Many of our undergraduate and graduate students are planning to live in these University-operated facilities.
All the emphasis which has necessarily been placed on buildings recently has not hampered our teaching proaram appreci- ably. It is pleasant to report that our freshman class is making excellent pro- gress, as evidenced by the fact that the freshman year (first semester) grades were higher than they have been for many
8
years. Only .2% of the grades earned were below "C". Academic and clinical progress of the upper classman has also been commendable.
Alumni will be interested to know that the dental section of the American As- sociation for the Advancement of Science met in Indianapolis this last December and that the program was under the general direction of Dr. Joseph C. Muhler and myself. The program was in the form of a symposium on fluorides and all the papers are being considered for publica- tion as a monoaraph by the A.A.A.S.
Many members of the faculty are work- ing on details of the Centennial meeting of the Indiana State Dental Association, which will be held in Indianapolis May 18, 19, 20 and 21 of this year. It is our firm conviction that dental education will benefit by cooperation with organized dentistry and that dental organizations can benefit from their contacts with dental educators. Oftentimes dental faculty members have been accused of dwelling m isolated ivory towers and dental organizations are accused of disregarding the source of future members of their organizations, namely, dental schools.
Complete cooperation between the two groups seems highly desirable; for this reason our faculty members are en- couraged to cooperate with all ethical dental organizations, .and practicing den- tists are urged to keep in touch with the school.
Many classes are planning reunions this year. We urge particularly the "five and ten year classes" to meet, especially the 1933 and 1908 classes. Of course, all classes may have reunions if they desire!
If we can do anything to help organize class reunions, please write us.
Biopsy Service
William G. Shafer) Associate Professor and Chairman) Department of Oral Pathology
The Department of Oral Pathology ex- panded its facilities in 1950 to promote the biopsy service then in operation sup- ported by the School of Dentistry and available to all dentists in the state of Indiana. This service was established primarily to offer greater opportunity for the early diagnosis of lesions of the oral cavity. It also afforded material for use in the various teaching programs of the dental school.
No charge was placed on this service and all mailing cartons were supplied free as well as the tissue reports. Eventu- ally, the size of this service and the num- ber of specimens processed annually reached a point at which it became neces- sary to impose a small fee. In October 1954, a charge of $2.00 was made for
each tissue report. This small fee does not cover the cost of prepartion of each specimen but the School of Dentistry defrays the remainder of the expense as part of its teaching proo-ram.
The growth of the biopsy service, year by year, is graphically shown in the ac- companying figure. The great increase in the number of specimens processed has emphasized the importance of this pro- cedure as a diagnostic aid for the general practitioner of dentistry. There has been a direct increase in the number of malig- nant oral tumors diagnosed each year concommitant with the increased number of specimens processed.
Dentists of Indiana are urged to con- tinue assuming the responsibility of in-

A. Rebekah Fisk) Director Class of 1954
Geraldine Bailey writes that Bob will be discharged from the service in January but they plan to stay in Texas until he finishes law school. Marcella Mitchell was married in June to John J. Keefe.
Since they were to live in Iowa, Marcella dashed over before the wedding and took the Board but we haven't heard whether she is practicing or not. Marilyn Poel and family are now living in Chicago.
Marilyn has retired from practice but took the Illinois Board just in case. One very warm day last summer Ted and Lenore Clark stopped in to see us. They enjoy the service and are living in Wash- ington. They will extend their tour of duty and hope to get an overseas assign- ment. Joan Kline is President of the Indiana State Dental Hygienists' Associa- tion and is very busy planning the details of the state meeting. Patricia and Dan'l Boone are very happy in their new home and Pat is particularly happy to be practicing part time in Macon, Georgia.
Carol (Ottinger) Rosenbrock has re- ported a second daughter, Nancy Sue.
Carol is not practicing but is called on frequently to substitute whenever the
"Flu" bug takes somebody out of the office. Barbara (Rambo) and Jon Her- rold are in the service and stationed at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Mary- land. Dorothy (Eastlund) Robinson and family have been living in Bloomington while Don finishes school. They now have a son and twin daughters. Guess the Landreth's (Kay Boese) are ahead in the production department; they now have a third son. Elizabeth (Finley) and John Oldham also have a daughter. Betty (Kiefer) and Bob Halsey have purchased a house around the corner from the Christmas' in Evansville. Marty Chris-

Alumni Notes
Since the January Bulletin is coming out in Febraury, it gives me a chance to wish you all a happy Valentine's Day!
One of the things I enjoy about this column of mine is the fun of reviewina the letters you all write. Just wish more of you would remember how eager we are to have news of you to pass on to your classmates!
And now for news of the Class of 1892
Dr. A. Archie Powell, 1984 Lundy Avenue, Pasadena, California, writes as follows,
"Arthur T. White (89) and A. Archie Powell (near 90); both of New Castle.
We two graduated from Indiana Dental College March 1, 1892. Both are residents of Pasadena. Dr. White continues with good practice; Dr. Powell retired in Illinois in 1932, came here in 1938. Had several heart attacks in June, 1956. He continues an easy time at his home.
"Of course I hope that this 'famous headliner' arrives in time for your January Alumni News." We are glad it did, too!
Dr. Arthur T. White, 345 Parkway Building, 11 7 E. Colorado Street, Pasadena, California, writes,
"The class of 1892 is still on the map, functioning about as last reported. Dr.
Powell is confined to his home very closely but talks cheerfully as of old. I am still at the office every day doing my bit, am now looking forward to March 1 when I expect to start my 67th year at the chair; feel fine, eat and sleep well.
God bless you all."

We have received a letter from Mrs.
C. M. Shawver, 204 W. Latimer, Ab- 16
Mrs. Cleona Harvey) Recorder inadon, Illinois, tellina us of the death of Dr. Shawver:
"My husband was a graduate of Indiana Univ rsity School of Dentistry in 1902.
He practiced in Elmwood, Illinois, for 25 years and here in Abingdon, Illinois, for 30 years. He always talked and planned to return to Indianapolis to see how his school had grown but somehow the opportunity never came. He cor- responded some with some of his class- mates, but he and Dr. Roland Low kept writin~ and seemed to have stayed in practice the longest. Doctor was still a very active man and practicing dentist up until December, 1956. On August 16, 1957, he passed away of a coronary oc- clusion.
"It was one of Dr. Shawver's requests that his school be notified of his passing.
He was 78 years old. He was preceded in death by one dauahter at age 21; he is survived by his wife, one other daughter and one son.
"Indiana Dental School meant very much to Dr. Shawver; in heart and spirit he was a loyal alumnus. Thank you for making a note of his passing."

Dr. Carl Stoner sends us the following news:
"I am a student again; I spend three days a week at Tufts in Boston furthering my studies in periodontology. Making an 8 o'clock lecture when I live a hundred

"I enrolled at St. Mary's University Sep- tember 1 7 and the young lady remem- bered seeing my transcript during the previous week; another advantage of hav- ing a name that's hard to spell and even harder to pronounce."
A letter from Dr. Harvey Chong,
76
Ponahawaii Street, Hilo, Hawaii, brings back nostalgic memories of a pleasant time I spent in Hawaii . . .
"Every time I get an issue of the Alumni Bulletin I vow to sit down and write to you . . . When you were in Honolulu three years ago, I did try to see you, without success. Those were very hectic days for me, as I was on the verge of getting married and getting out of the army . . . To bring you up to date, I joined the army and served in Korea in the Fiahting Army Dental Corps, and was later transferred to Japan. (Dr.
Kelley Carr makes me envious.) Saw Elmer Duncan once in Japan.
"For the past three years Phyllis and I have been busy raising a family, and we now boast a girl (Mayette) and a boy
(Harvey Jr.).
"The practice has been good, and leaves little for me to desire. The only thing I miss is seeing more Indiana people.
The only ones I have seen here have been Drs. Charles Eller (1907) and John S.
Eilar. We wish more woul come. I presume that some of my more talented classmates must have a fortune accumu- lated by now, so please tell them to spend it on a trip here."

We have received the following address for Dr. Harry Shaver: Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Dr. David G. Lehman, Box 98, Aibonito, Puerto Rico, writes this inter- esting information:
"You may be interested in my work here in Purto Rico. I am the only dentist in Aibonita a town of 20,000 people, and the surrounding area of 10,000 people who come to Aibonito for dental and medical treatment. This is far too many people to adequately treat. Many come only for emergency extractions, although I am doing more restorative and period- ontal treatment all the time.
"I observe much malnutrition among the people here. There is much decay and periodontal disease. Teeth are softer it seems, and many patients have trouble with blood clotting.
"The average Puerto Rican diet is probably lacking in vitamins, minerals and coarse foods. Most people eat rice and beans twice a day and bread and coffee for breakfast. Green and yellow veget- ables and dairy products are scarce and expensive . . .
"My office facilities are quite adequate and I do have X rays and increased speeds for cavity preparation. I could not obtain stannous fluoride here in Puerto Rico so sent to Indianapolis for it. Also I have used camporated-p-mono- chloro-phenol with penicillin powder to treat badly decayed teeth. It has proved to be quite effective in. treating children's teeth.
"I am working with a public health supervisor in this area and we want to have a pamphlet printed in Spanish concerning the prevention of dental disease and better dental health. It will be no problem to have this article tran- slated into Spanish . . .
"I am doing some orthodontia so as to retain what I learned. Also I am receiv-
ing numerous publications to keep up with the dental literature."
"May you all have a successful and prosperous New Year."
Class of 1954

Oscar Leiva sent holiday greet- ings from 3a. Ave. # 1376 Z. 1, Gua- temala, Central America.In November we had a most interesting letter from Dr. Robert Johns, 7280th USAF Hospital, Box #6, clo Postmaster, APO 30, New York, New York:
"We received the August edition of the Alumni Bulletin today and sat right down and read it from cover to cover. It really brings back fond memories and friend- ships which were formed during the wonderful four years at I.U. School of Dentistry. Since graduating in 1954, my wife and I have had many wonderful things happen to us and have seen a good share of the world. I first had a one year internship at Madigan General Hos- pital in Tacoma, Washington. This was an Air Force internship and it was an excellent rotating type internship. I ap- plied for overseas duty after completing the internship and our duty assignment turned out to be Nouasseur Air Depot,
Morocco. We have been here for 27 months and will be returning to the States just about the time that the January issue of the Bulletin is due out. We've had a wonderful tour here. The weather is wonderful and the base is just 20 miles from Casablanca, which is located right on the Atlantic Ocean. Tangier (the international city) and Gibraltar are only about 200 miles away and they are very interestina to visit. The country of Morocco has undergone quite a political change in the last year as I am sure you've read about and how they have their in- dependence. We lived in Fedela, Morocco, our first fifteen months here.
It is a beautiful little seaside resort town where many Europeans come for vaca- tions and rest. The people of Morocco
(Arabs and Berbers) are very interesting people and their ways of life, bartering, trading, working, and thinking have been very fascinating for Ruth and me to observe. Of course, I've taken enough 35 mm. color pictures to fill a library and I'll be boring people to death with all the pictures when we return to the states.
"Ruth and I also had a pleasant visit from the stork on January 29, 1957, with a seven pound baby boy named Mark Robert, and we are expecting another stork visit some time in May of next year.
"We just returned 'from a thirty day tour of Europe and it was a wonderful trip. The vacation took in such capitals as Brussels, Amsterdam and Copenhagen along with the beautiful countryside and small villages of France, Belgium, Nether- lands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria. We thought Copenhagen, Den- mark, was the most wonderful city we've seen in the world; although Munich and Garmisch, Germany, run a close second.
"I've had 27 months of wonderful dentistry here and have been able to perfect my oral surgery a great deal. We have been handling our maxillary and mandibular fractures whenever possible and have one morning each week set up (Continued on next page)

in the general operating room for full mouth extractions under general anes- thesia usino- nitrous oxide- oxygen and pentothal (sodium) anesthetics. We also have been able to do quite a few bridges, jacket crowns, inlays, etc., along with our main concentration of amalgam work.
I'm finding out that the dentistry in the service, for the most part, is of the highest quality and for this I am grateful. I can say this for sure without error, that the dentistry which we learned at good old I.U. ranks with the best in the world, if not just a little beter. I think the dental students graduating from I.U. have a better all-round training in the different phases of d ntistry than most other stu- dents from various schools."
Then, in December we received a Christmas greeting from Dr. Johns m Morocco.
Dr. Jack Weinsoff's address is 6631 Laurel Canyon Boulevard, North Holly- wood, California.

Class of 1956
Dr. Robert Callis, AO 3044934, 7520th USAF Hospital, USAFE, APO 125, New York, New York, writes "I'm located about 10 miles west of downtown London-at the Eastcote Dental Clinic, which is the only clinic that takes care of families of the service men-anywhere in the world. The work is entirely on wives and children-and it is largely children. So, as you might imagine, my experience with children has been greatly increased, and I seem to have acquired a decent 'knack' in handling them-and have learned to enjoy this work."
A Christmas message from Dr. and Mrs. Louis D'Angelo, Fort Yates, North Dakota, brings the following:
Another busy year has slipped by. Lou is still the United States Public Health Service dentist at Fort Yates. This past year his office was moved from the base- ment of the hospital to the main floor, and another chair was added to his equip- ment. He has been having a lot of good experience working in a two chair office.
"This past summer Lou passed the New Jersey State Dental Board Examination ...
"We do not know just yet whether we are going into private practice this year or not. We do hope to at least get a transfer out of Fort Yates. We plan to
go East this Christmas to look around for a business site."
Dr. Wilbur Dremstedt, 1144 South 11th Street, Apartment 1-A, Lincoln 2, Ne- braska, writes, "I am enjoying an in- teresting tour of duty in the dental corps of the Air Force at Lincoln Air Force Base, Nebraska. We are privileged to work in a new, fully equipped dental clinic. There is no 'amalgam line' here, for we can do every phase of dentistry from surgery to crown and bridge. I am looking forward to one more year here before returning to Indiana."
Dr. David Ferguson, 3603 Flaherty Circle, Honolulu 18, T. H., writes, "I thought I would write a short note and tell you how much I enjoy the Alumni Bulletin. Wheh you are so far away from home as we are, it is surely nice to get news of my many friends and the old school, which I miss very much.
"The Navy has treated us fine. We spent an enjoyable year in San Diego.
I was already to make a try for the Cali- fornia Board, when the Navy suddenly transferred us over here to Hawaii. I was disappointed that I didn't get to take the Board, but we didn't object to coming here to Hawaii. We had a wonderful trip over on the S. S. Leilani and have been enjoying the islands ever since. It is the most beautiful and exotic spot I have ever seen; and would advise anyone who has the chance to come over here, not to miss it.
"I'll be leaving the Navy in the summer of 1959 and am looking forward to visit- ing the school then (I probably won't recognize the place by then, what with the ambitious building program being planned) and seeing all my old friends."
Dr. John H. Koby announces the open- ing of his new office for the general practice of dentistry at 5317 East 16th Street, Indianapolis, Indiana.
Dr. Dwain R. Love, General Delivery, Gardnerville, Nevada, wrote "my wife had a 7 pound baby boy January 4, 1958.
We didn't name him Francis, but did
name him Jeffrey Kraig. I surely am proud of the new addition to the family."
Dr. Carl R. McKee, AO 3045829, 4 73 7th USAF Hospital, ADC Pepperell Air Force Base, St. Johns, Newfoundland, sent us a note with his address saying that he and Mrs. McKee (Betty Barr, Dental Hygiene Class of 195 7) are living in St.
Johns.
We received a Christmas greeting from Dr. and Mrs. Rafael Nadal, 422 Berkley Road, Indianapolis, Indiana.
We have received a change of address for Dr. James M. Sterrett to Medical Arts Building, Mooresville, Indiana
Dr. Donald E. Stroud, 53rd USAF Dispensary (Class A) United States Air Force, Sioux City Air Base, Iowa, writes us,
"Some things about myself since grad- uation and entering the service. I had the privilege of attending a very fine two week postgraduate course last May spon- sored by the Air Force. It was presented by Dr. Wilton Cogswell of Colorado Springs; and it covered the surgical re- moval of impacted mandibular third molars. The course was excellent from the standpoint that we operated about half of the time, which was an invaluable aid in learning the technique. This along with many other things, has convinced me that I want to do oral surgery.
"I am also working toward completing requirements for my B.S. At the end of the present semester, I will only lack six hours. The local college and correspond- ence courses are doing the job.
"My little girl, Cheryl Ann, will be one year old in November. We have an apart- ment on the base that is roomy, but noth- ing very fancy. Housing here is limited."
Class of 1957
We received Christmas greetings from Dr. Pedro G. Colon, Box 36, Naguabo, Puerto Rico.
Dr. and Mrs. Lloyd Delman wrote us from USAF U.S. Military Academy, West Point, New York, the following,
(Continued on next page)
21
"I read in the August edition of the Alumni Bulletin your desire to have the class of 195 7 inform you of their where- abouts. Jane and I have been very fortunate for we are now in the Army stationed at the United States Army Hos- pital, United States Military Academy, West Point, New York.
"I hope this short note finds you in
good health."
Dr. Calvin M. Fair, 05500348, U.S.
Army Dispensary, Port of Whittier, Alaska, APO 98 7, Seattle, Washington, writes,
"We are enjoying a mild winter here at this time. Only about 1-12 feet of snow fallen. The temperature has not fallen below 25 and usually stays between 30 and 40. The rain averages 150 inches per year and 40 to 60 feet of snow per winter is not uncommon. We are located about 60 miles south of Anchorage, just at the neck of the Kenai Peninsula. This is centered in one of the best hunting and fishing areas in North America-a true sportsman's paradise.
"Am enjoying a very busy dental practice along with one other dentist.
There are close to 1000 persons located here to keep us both busy."
Dr. and Mrs. Paul Gilmore, 2 Daniel Street, Byrnes Downs, Charleston 4 7, South Carolina, informed us of the birth of a daughter, on November 22, 1957;
earlier in August he wrote us as follows:
"The results of the S. C. State Board were published the 15th of July so we immediately got to work looking for a place to live in Charleston. The office space was located and rented . . . the building had to be renovated ... it will be a two chair office with reception room, business office, lab and rest room . . . all partitions are up, utilities installed and work progressing rapidly. I plan to be in practice by the 1st of September. Of the practicing dentists I have met, they have been most encouraging and have fine prospects for me and my location.
"I am in a section of Charleston that
22
is rapidly increasing in population and growth of industry. You remember that old statement, "the South will rise again", it looks from here it is doing so in Charles- ton. The area has about 40,000 people with three practicing dentists. Two of them are old timers here and the third one opened his office a month ago. We have rented half of a ranch style duplex with two bedrooms, bath, living room, kitchen and utility room. It is a brick building, new attractive, and modern.
"I hope always to be informed of the
activities of the dental school and hope anyone passing through Charleston will stop and visit with us."
Dr. Richard L. Falender announces the opening of his office for the practice of general dentistry at 6430 East Washington Street, Indianapolis, Indiana.
Dr. George Fries' address is Linvill Memorial Clinic, 215 East Van Buren Street, Columbia City, Indiana.
Dr. Richard Myers' address is 43rd Tact. Hospital Davis - Monthan AFB Tucson, Arizona.
Dr. Robert H. Owens, Louisville General Hospital, Louisville, Kentucky, writes,
"I'm so sorry I haven't witten sooner,
but my work has kept me quite busy. At present, I am on general anesthesia. Work- ing from 7 to 5, plus being on call every third night, seems to keep me well oc- cupied. There are seven of us, 4 anesthe- sia residents, 2 staff and myself, who give all the anesthesia at Children's Hospital and General. At the end of November I go back to the oral surgery clinic. My plans for next year are not too definite yet. I'm certainly going ahead in oral surgery ...
"Paul Gilmore has opened practice m South Carolina-the only out-of-state to pass the Board."
We were pleased to receive Christmas greetings from Dr. and Mrs. Herbert Tietzer, P.O. Box 3687, Carmel, Cali- fornia. Dr. Tietzer had written us in August as follows,
"My wife, son, and I had a wonderful trip from Indiana. We saw a lot of beautiful country on the way, and visited with some old friends . . . .
"We three Tietzers all extend our best wishes and regards to you."
Dr. Harold W. Bohnke, 2439 Cincin- nati, San Antonio, Texas, tells us,
"Well, the year 1958 is here and '57 gone but for Joan and me it is not forgotten. To give you a brief rundown of events here we go."
"We finally got settled at our apart- ment in San Antonio, Texas, around the end of November. After spending the first 22 days of December preparing for Chirstmas we were blessed with a 7 lb.
baby boy. He was born a Texan at the Baptist Memorial Hospital here in San Antonio. Both mother and baby are doing fine and father is just a little worse from the wear. Joan's mother arrived a few days later and has been a Godsend help- ing us out.
"Our apartment is about 15 minute drive from the base and is just two blocks from St. Mary's University. The sur- rounding community is very nice and the people are very friendly.
"As you know, Dr. Paul Cleeter has been stationed here at Kelly Air Force Base for about one and one half years and helped us obtain our apartment.
"We each have our own private office at the base complete to an assistant. One pleasure I have is that our dental educa- tion at Indiana University is as good and in most cases better than those from other schools. Thanks for that."
And now for the addreses of the Class of 1931 ! As usual we sent out question- naires to the members of the class and these data are the results of their replies.
An asterisk before the name indicates we did not receive an answer to our letter.
If you know of the address of those for whom we have no address, we shall ap- preciate hearing from you; we shall also welcome corrections, and so forth!

Class and Fraternity Notes
FRESHMAN CLASS
September 13, 1957, saw the enrollment of 72 students in the freshman class, I.U.
School of Dentistry. Organization was ac- complished soon after school started with the following class officers elected: William Watts was elected president; Bert Cleveland, vice- president; Bernie Neubauer, secretary-treasurer;
Dr. R. C. Webster, class sponsor.
One of the highlights during our first few weeks was the opportunity to attend the after- noon session and banquet during the annual meeting of the Indiana University Dental Alumni Association. Difficulty in finding a 24
seat for the banquet was understandable and was probably due in part to our 100% at- tendance.
As far as our social activities, we are happy to announce that the first· social function was naturally a stag party, held at the local Police- man's Lodge at mid-semester. Needless to say, we had 100% attendance here, too.
Another social function was a dance at the Sarkes-Tarzian Cafeteria at Thanksgiving time.
A good time was had by all except for the early morning clean-up detail on the following day.
Also, as of the end of Christmas vacation, our Freshman Dental Intramural Basketball team was undefeated. Our second game is scheduled soon after finals.
Speaking of finals, our socializing ended on January 20, 1958, in lieu of final exams, or what we call, "Court of Last Resort".
Then there will be next semester and any- time you are down Bloomington way drop in and see us; we will attempt to show you some of that fine dental hospitality.
As to future plans, a dinner-dance is planned for next semester. This should be really big.
Happy 1961 to everyone.
SOPHOMORE CLASS
On the last day of finals in our freshman year, the class elected William Gordon, presi- dent; Joseph Minnis, vice-president; Stuart Ewbank, treasurer; and Dilia Rieser, secretary for the sophomore year. Then when school started in September, we elected Warren Davis and Richard Henry as Student Council mem- bers and Harvey Levinson as the alternate member.
Our activities have been limited mostly to learning how to use the handpiece, remem- bering the name, place and use of all our new instruments, learning all the new and different techniques and finding out what it means to be "on call" for autopsy for our General Pathology course.
Thru the efforts of Dr. Hohlt and Pete Reibel, we now have a basketball team in which all the dental studnts may particippate. Out of the 5 games which the Indiana University Dental School Basketball Team has played, three games were won. They are in the Thurs- day night Em-Roe League and Pete is the player coach. Their uniforms are scarlet T- shirts with white numbers and white trunks.
This summer weddi
