Happiness, The Reflection O f FOREWORD

Just as seasoning is necessary to the en joyment of most foods, humor is the seasoning that is necessary to the enjoyment of most lives! Charles Schulz, whose wonder child, Peanuts, is reproduced with gracious permission through out these pages has in great measure supplied a weary and over-sophisticated world with a seasoning of innocent humor born of the infinite wisdom of children.

And one of the by-products of humor is hap piness, though this is not to say that all happiness stems from humor. We, the Editors, have constructed this vol ume using a foundation theme of happiness. While in lighter moments, we give happiness a comic and satirical face, happiness to us is a joy in the successful completion of four laborious years, an eagerness to step into a professional life, and thankfulness for being part of an honorable profession. Rather than a factual diary, our target was an attractive, evocative, permanent record of these four years of optometric education, dayto-day situations, clinical procedures, and ex periences. This book, then, we hope, is one which both readers and creators can be justifiably proud, and one which will be cherished as a memento of days that will no longer be. The Editors

College Enters Era o f Expansion

Before . . . Copley M ethodist Church n ex t to m ain building a t 178 N ewbury S treet ju s t p rio r to razing.

The college physically consists of two buildings w ith a third in the undeveloped planning stage. The Horace M ann Building was acquired fro m Boston U niversity in 1951 and has been used fo r all lectures and laboratory classes ever since. I t is planned that eventually the building will accommodate only laboratories and adm inistrative offices. The Copley M ethodist Church, which until this past year occupied the land next to the school, was purchased and subsequently razed. The lot is now leased to a parking concern and revenues received w ill be used to defray the cost of construction, slated to begin in five to ten years. _ This new building will house lecture and assembly halls. The clinic building was purchased in the early fiftie s fro m the Klein Family, having been the site of the clinic under the prior adm inistration since 1938. Future plans call for.. extensive renovation of the current facilities.

A fte r . . . view from E xeter S treet a t main building and adjacent lot now used as a parking area.

Five-story clinic facility located a t 472 Common w ealth Avenue.

Happiness is having all the students sit close to the front of the classroom giving their undivided attention; your daughter not dating any o f the students; and having someone else proctor your exams. Happiness is deciding to give everyone an 87 ju st for showing up to take the finals; having a faculty lounge where m artinis are served between breaks; and having your paycheck doubled and getting a Christmas bonus. Happiness is having more old exams than any of the students; and being on Mr. Stilley s car wash list.

Farewell.

..Dean Green

In classic literature there is the tale of the boy, who by hold ing his finger in the break of the dike, saves his city from a deluge. D uring more than th irty years, Dr. Ralph H. Green emulated that heroic individual. He remained at his post, not only stem m ing the tide, but in one last gesture launching our once threat ened alma m ater upon a hopeful era of expansion. We, the Class of 1965, the last gathering of students to bene fit fro m his years of teaching and experience, wish him m any long years of happy association w ith his children, grand children, and w ith us, who will be his colleagues but never his equal.

ADMINISTRATION BOARD OF TRUSTEES The Governing Corporation of the college, these men serve w ithout renum eration to fill the needs of the students. Shown above, from left, seat ed, Dr. Otto Hochstadt, Secre tary -T reasu rer; Dr. G. Edward Bradley, President; and Dr. Ralph H. Green, Dean. Stand ing, Dr. Donald W. Horley, Rev. John D. Erb, A tty. Joseph M. D uffy, Dr. Adelbert 0 . P a r ro tt, and Mr. Maurice H. Saval.

In a specialized institution such as MCO where the student body is likely to be limited and the income from tuitions is also limited, the key words to its operation are efficiency ^ T itu f a rh e a d of a Board of Trustees which serves w ithout salary or financial gam is Dr. G. Edw ard Bradley. Dr. Bradley, an alumnus of the College, is also a form er state legislator and active in New England athletic orgamza^°The location is th e constantly buzzing front

office which serves as mail room, meeting place, reception desk, records room, and gra phic services departm ent. Mrs. Elinor Patten, officially, secretary to the Dean, single-hand edly presides over this control station th a t in larger institutions is managed by a t least two or perhaps three other persons. An ever open office door is symbolic of Kegistrar Francis S. Duane’s office where activi ties ranging from interviewing prospective studento to counseling the Reflections staff take place.

Mr F rancis Duane, who offic ially serves as R egistrar, un officially serves as student councillor, activities coordina tor, alum ni liason officer, Re flections Advisor, and in any capacity he can be of assist ance. Mrs. Elinor P atten, Secretary, serves as an ever-willing assistan t to both students and faculty. H er winning smile and youthful vigor greatly enhances the college atmosnhere.

A TRIBUTE Electrician, carpenter, painter, plumber, handy man, and the man responsible fo r the well being of College and Clinic buildings is Mr. Hassie Stilley, who has been w ith th e College for tw enty years. Long a fte r students, faculty and adm inistration have deserted th e College each day, this patient, sturdy man makes his rounds from room to room putting in order all th e chaos th a t is the result of each day’s routine. Our mere thanks is inadequate payment.

Happiness is one senior having a nice word for another; still having your m iner’s button; no more classes on the third floor; treating Mrs. Jackson to a cup of coffee across the street; and not worrying about graduation. Happiness is 0 .0 . ending only five m inutes late; Dr. Green saying, “I m ust admit, this case is rather pointless”; perfect attendance in Visual Psychology; and Dr. Kozol wearing hush puppies.

LOOKING BACK We entered MCO one sunny Septem ber day and were surprised to learn th a t in addition to tuition we were required to pay a $1.00 deposit in order to borrow a locker key for four years. When do we get our dollar back? John Toscano Student Council R epresentative

The high points of the year w ere: Roger M aris h it 59 home r u n s ; we dropped a piece of wood on a strin g from the th ird floor to the fir s t and we cut up a cat. Jim H annah explained th a t a cat has no rig h t or left side; it depends on which way he’s facing. A rt Copeland’s cat looked like someone had been nibbling a t it.

An Overconditioned Class Much to our surprise, the second year was easier th an the firs t . . . a t least there was a reason to get up in the m orning . . . not th a t we could rem em ber once we got to P.O.!! Joe Bickford and Greg somebody-or-other (alias Glen) joined the class. Jack Smudge roomed w ith the “Duck” M arm arosh. Dr. McNulty took over T.O. from H arry Pass after Christm as. “Stand U p” Tere P o rter was an expert on the keratom eter. We met the “dictator” and learned th a t the m arking pen is m ightier th an the sword. In September of ’63, Linsky became en gaged (Is she nice, P h il?). The O.O. home work was easy — if you didn’t do it! Junior year statistics: We did the same lab in G.O. 32 tim es; Pete Myers (or is it Meyers or Mires or M eiers) wore the same sport jacket 180 consecutive days; John G etter was late to 567 straig h t classes and Short Fuse Tos cano (SFT ) lost his tem per 812 times (before Columbus Day) ! Finally we were seniors! No more G.O. No more inapplicable theory. Practical work from here on in. But, we ate hash six hours

a w eek; and discovered how many millimeters the lensometer carriage moves between the principle m eridians of cylinders. Phil Sidran got a haircut and Ron Fields stayed up late each night studying Applied Optometry. Bob Miller memorized A.O.’s ophthalmic catalog after working for B. & L. last sum mer and A1 Lewis now has a Thing with the Addams family. Roger G rant came home one day and found a strange blonde in Hie kitchen (it was his wife) and Ron Loring wouldn’t let his wife watch T.V. during finals. Tieri played Odd job in Goldfinger and had lunch with Cal four days in a row w ithout getting a word in edgewise, and Ronnie Hall became engaged. (How old is she, anyway?) Then we graduated! Paul Montminy re fused to enter his fa th e r’s practice and took a job selling raffle tickets. The Republicans hired A rt Stuchins to ask ridiculous questions a t Presidential press conferences and the Class of 1965 left MCO. B ut when do we get our dollar back??

Supplements College Curriculum The long-awaited opportunity to attend the sessions of the New England Council Conven tion arrived again this year when th e Senior class took a three day sabatical to participate. Held a t the S tatler Hilton Hotel in March, the convention included lectures and dem onstra tions on such topics as contact lenses, stereo refraction, tonom etry, visual train in g and prac tice management. Although these topics are covered extensive ly a t the college, the convention presentations allowed for an expanded practical viewpoint along w ith newly developed concepts in each area. The inform al atm osphere provided th e stu dents many opportunities to discuss seminar presentations w ith the internationally promi nent authorities in the field. Many of these men had been only names in textbooks to m ost students. The annual MCO Alumni Homecoming Ban quet which precedes th e Congress was also the largest on record. D uring th e program , Dr. Otto Hochstadt, secretary-treasurer of th e Board of Trustees, announced a new era of expansion w ith th e purchase of adjacent land to th e col lege. Dean Ralph Green emphasized th a t the academic standards of th e college are increas ing rapidly. Dr. Donald Horley, President of the Alumni Association, presided and Dr. F rank Kozol, Treasurer, was in charge of arrangem ents. .

unim aginative portrayal of th e ceremony

yeHoweverr ^ T t h f c fa s ? of 1965, th e graduation ceremony not only signalled th e end of th e long road to a form al education, b ut also m arked th e beginning of a much longer, more challenging road to a professional career in optometric “ 3 5 a so th e *graduati0n music had hardly faded away when five members of th e class took th eir fir®* stqPS on this new road to th e tune of wedding bells These were Joseph Bickford, A rth u r Copeland, Ronald Hall Tere P orter and A rth u r Tieri. All m arried w ithin a m onth ot gradu ation, these men joined eight other m arried members of t h Thea road ahead is long and hard, b u t the Class of 1965 is sure to find success if th eir efforts equal th en goals.

Freshmen happiness is Mr. Arnold not showing up to give his quiz; having girls in class; and having few er finals than the upperclassmen. Sophomore happiness is Dr. Wasserman not collecting the G. 0. homework; hearing those im m ortal words, “Take out a blank sheet of paper and the “no school” announcement due to poor weather. Junior happiness is thinking if you study for boards you won’t have to study for finals; knowing the difference between an orbit and a satellite; and passing your state boards every week in M.O. Happiness is knowing you won’t always be an underclassman!

Juniors Push Toward Clinical Application As juniors, we are faced w ith one of the most im portant periods of our profession. As seniors, in our clinical year all of our th eoreti cal knowledge m ust be p ut to practical use. Success in optom etry hinges upon the utiliza tion of th a t which has been instilled in us.

Sophomores Broaden Their Foundation Sophomore year is designed to introduce us to the Optometric curriculum, and to in tru s t us w ith the goals of our profession. Classroom lectures and laboratories, supple mented by clinical procedure and applica tion, have broadened our scope of Optom etry and left us anxious for fu rth e r knowledge in this, our field of endeavor.

In Optometry Throughout th e year we are torm ented by the adage, “The more we know, th e more we realize there is much to learn.” Thus we look ahead to two more years of intense study in order to achieve utm ost proficiency. The present Sophomore class understands our responsibilities and accepts th e challenge to m aintain th e standards set by previous graduates and those who are about to grad uate. We congratulate th e Class of 1965 on th eir successful completion of study, and wish them all the best in th e future. Ar, inform al nose bv the m ain stairw ay.

Freshmen Embark Upon Their As Freshm en, we have taken th e firs t step in em barking on our optom etric career. Now with this foundation year behind us, we can look forw ard to fu rth e r optom etric study. We have made use of our freshm an year to evaluate ourselves and our goals in light of our profession. This evaluation provided

a chance for those who discovered a genuine lack in optom etric in terest to withdraw gracefully. Thus affirm ed and strengthened in our professional attitudes and resolved to devote ourselves toward becoming dedicated optom etrists, we eagerly anticipate many fru itfu l years in optometry.

Perseverance, Dedication, Creativity P rin t it! Finally in early A u g u st_ these words were spoken as the 1965 edition J of Reflections w ent to press. But thoughts d rift ed back to May of 1964 as the original form at was given consideration. From here, wheels began to turn. E arly Septem ber saw the fo r mation of the trium verate of Co-editors; se lection of Business M anager; sta ff solicita tion and tra in in g ; and selection of the Delmar Yearbook Company of N orth Carolina as our official publishers. An ideal w orking situ

ation was provided by Boris and Milton, Photographers who produced services above and beyond the contract to make the year book the best ever. Then it was all available moments in the two “offices” as copy was w ritten, pictures identified, cartoons created and captioned and last m inute details worked out. Finally graduation came and went, and w ith it the final copy was submitted. Thus, Reflections 1965 is history, a permanent^ rec ord of four years of Optometric education.

Four years go by quickly! As we prepare ourselves to embark, on our professional field of endeavor, we look back a t more than our books and classes. We recall the social life, the activities, and most of all, we recall the many friends we have made. Many of these memories will center around P.O.S., for it is here th a t we have made most of our close bonds. These memories are the smoker, poverty party, banquet, bowling night and other im prom ptu gatherings. F rate rn ity life is a wonderful thing, and an education in itself. We drink a toast to P.O.S. now, as we have done in the past and will continue to do in the future. HARRY PASS CHANCELLOR

Zeta Chapter of Omega Epsilon Phi, In te r national Optometric F raternity, is one of eight c h a p te rs located in o p to m etric colleges throughout the United States. An additional chapter is located in the Philippine Islands. Omega Epsilon Phi originated in 1920 when the need was realized for an organization th a t would “transcend the bounds of race, color, and creed to promote the cause of Optometry by encouraging the study of its principles and problems and by striving for higher ethical and educational standards w ith in the profession” . In 1947, Zeta Chapter a t the M assachusetts College of Optometry was founded and to m aintain contacts after graduation the Zeta G raduate Club was also founded. The Brotherhood presents the Joseph J. Scanlon Award annually a t commencement exercises to the member of the graduating class who has dem onstrated the highest de gree of proficiency in his clinical work. Socially, our smoker, Christm as party, and banquet proved to be successful again this year, but our bowling team w ent down to a close defeat to Pi Omicron Sigma fraternity. On behalf of myself and all the Brothers of Zeta Chapter, we wish to extend our sin cere congratulations and best wishes to all the members of the class of 1965 and hope th a t each and every one of them will find everlasting success in the profession ot Uptom etry.

The Dames Club was organized to provide the wives of the students w ith a social outlet as well as an optometrically orientated educa tional background. The club has not only been an active group b u t also has set many new precedents. F or the firs t time, the meetings and activities have been held at the College, thereby providing a closer tie between the wives and the school. Two activities, a bake sale and a raffle were held for the benefit of the club’s chari table project, a children’s corner a t the clinic. Social activities included a welcoming dance for husbands and wives; a food dem onstra tion for entertaining purposes; and a tea at the Statler-H ilton Hotel sponsored by the Women’s A uxiliary of The New England Council of Optom etrists. A b u ffet dinner was also held at which Senior P.H.T. (P utting Husband Through) degrees were awarded by Mrs. Foster Namias, club advisor; and the installation of new officers conducted. Many educational meetings were held throughout the year, including an inform a tive lecture by Mrs. Carroll M artus, on the ‘Role of the Optometric W ife’ ; and a lecturetour by Dr. Kamens, Clinic Director. The O.E.P. Barstow papers on the role of the optom etrist’s wife were distributed a t all the meetings.

Clinical application begins early in the education of the Optometric student. Even as a second year professional student, fundam ental theories m ust be p u t to practical application. Proficiency only comes through experience and repetition. Thus the firs t clinical phase is devoted to the m astering of such integral skills as vision testing, subjective lens tests, skiam etry and keratom etry. Basic optom etric skills are directed by Dr. Svagdys, assistan t clinical direc tor. The mechanical optics phase introduces lens division, neutralization of power, proper lens m ark ing and beveling techniques. Throughout this year, optometric procedure and mechanical optics seem almost at opposite extremes.

SENIOR CLINIC Senior year brings w ith it the realistic clinical setting as the students participate in refraction, contact lens and orthoptics clinics. In refraction clinic, each student is required to examine a specified number of patients and to analyze and prescribe from his findings. A ll findings are confirmed and verified by the clinic directors.

The clinic serves patients from surrounding collegiate communities, welfare cases, and the general well-informed public. Clinical facilities include a complete laboratory for m odifying and finishing lenses, modern bio-microscopes, radiuscopes, and one of the m ost complete diagnostic lens sets ever assembled. Many clinicians fin d the contact lens clinic a stim ulating challenge as it demands a thorough knowledge on the part of the practitioner.

C lin ic ia n G e tte r checks lens specifications on the radiuscope.

MECHANICAL OPTICS A n equally vital part _ of an O ptom etrist’s training is the Mechanical Optics phase. Through this instruction, he is able to adequately correlate _ the examination prescription with the final fram e and lenses Only token a fram e is properly fitted and adjusted does it become a functional part of the patient. The students are fortunate in having as an instructor, Dr. Frank Kozol, who has published extensive technical inform ation on this subject. Clinician Myers perform s intricacies of h ea t tre a tin g a lens to m ake it sh a tte r resistant.

VISUAL TRAINING

The untapped resources of Optometry lie in the field of visual training. Since, in some cases, a spectacle correction is only a small part of the visual problem, patients m ust have visual re-education. A thorough visual investigation m ust precede any training procedure and training is recommended only when a favorable prognosis is determined. Age generally brings about imbedded visual patterns. However, training can be done at almost any age level depending upon the m otivation of the patient. This clinical phase, guided expertly by Dr. Philip Friedman, enables clinicians to develop rapport w ith children and their parents. Visual Training D irector reevalu ates train in g program with pat-

P atients and their parents arrive early in preparation for their train ing sessions or progress reports.

The ability to project to the proper point is an integral p a rt of the training preeedure, conducted here by Clincian Bickford. 72

WorldRenowned for Quality

Contact Lenses The Plastic C ontact Lens Company offers a broad spectrum of contact lenses, all backed by the corporate policy of service with integrity, and each manufactured w ith exacting care to the required prescription to m eet the unsurpassed standard of W /J quality. The two basic lens types in the product line are the SPH E R C O N * lens, a contact lens with spherical base and power (front) curves, and the CYCO N* lens. T he nam e Sphercon not only refers to a lens of either the tri-curve or pentacurve configura tion, but also to a m ethod of fitting, intended to achieve as nearly as possible a uniform tear layer under the optic zone when in the centered position with peripheral opening for tear exchange.

The Cycon lens is one w ith a toroidal base curve and spherical power curve, designed to achieve an optim um physical fit for corneas which are not basically spherical in shape. A double Cycon lens is also available—this is a lens with a cylindrical central zone and a different cylindrical peripheral zone. If residual astigm ia is encountered in the fitting o f either the Sphercon or Cycon lens, a cylinder can be ground on the power (front) curve. T his is the TO RC O N * lens. ♦ R eg istered T ra d e m a rk s

The two basic lens types (Sphercon and Cycon) are available in lenticular form and, also Sphertan form —a lenticular type in which the transitional area between the front optical zone and the flange is a sm ooth curve. T hey are also available in bifocal form: the BIC O N *, de Carle, Black, and W /J fused bifocal types o f contact lenses.

for Every Need All lens types are available in various prism ballast forms and in sixteen colors (the SP H E R T IN T * lens); all can be fenestrated or truncated to stop rotation and all can be obtained with LU M IC O N * markings for identification and axis or other benchmark location. In addition, all lenses can be obtained m either regular or special W /J plastic.

ASEPTOPLAST*—This new antiseptic lens is made of a special plastic in which are incorporated two antibacterials effective against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. 1 he contained bactericides (in solid solution) cannot be leached out by the lachrymal fluid, hence the lens is totally inert. This new lens has been widely acclaimed for its greater wearing comfort, for shortening the adaptation period, for saving pro fessional tim e in fitting. I t is available in every type of contact lens and color. The company product line also includes: W /J tri-curve cone lenses, Universal cone lenses, and the C. Arias rings for keratoconus correction; molded cone, molded scleral, and preformed scleral lenses; corneal cosm etic and scleral cosm etic contact lenses w ith either a clear or opaque pupil; the 1EEECUJN telescopic lens for patients with sub-normal vision; and diagnos tic lenses and gonioscopic lenses to view the interior of the eye w ith the slit lamp.

A host of talents, tasks, and technical considerations combine in professional practice. The vision specialist must deal daily with the public and still remain a scientist. He must handle his patients carefully, motivate the people with whom he works, and run his office with maximum efficiency. Basically there are two things upon which every successful practice depends: 1) the competence of the practitioner, and 2) the capabilities of his equipment. What is required of the man, is required of his tools also.
