41 Years of Progress

2---.t1-19_1_8frl 9 5 7 ti~{

It con be said without reservation thot through the outstanding work, endea vors, and progress of the
Ohio College of Chiropody, our profession ho s grown to be recognized os a very essential ond integral port
of the medical profess ion.

Th e year 1916 stands o ut in the hi story of Chiropody in Ohio . It was in 1916 that the Plott-Elli s
Bill was passed . Thi s bill regulated the limited branches of medicine, whereby Chiropody become a recogniz -
ed branch of the med ical profession in Ohi o . Immed iately followi ng the passage of this bill , the Ohio
College of Chiropody was incorporated.

Through the foresight and vision of Dr. Mox S. Horm o lin who surrou nded himself with the follow-
ing me n : Cecil P. Beach, Oscar Klotzbach, Lester Siemon, Charl es Spatz ond Clark McConn e ll, Ohio Co l-
lege of Chiropody mod e its entrance as o ne of the leading chiropodico l educati onal institutions. These men
se rved as the first board of trustees with Dr . Siemon as President and Dr. Horm o lin a s Secretory-Treasurer.
Areto s Biddinger, M .D., become the fir st dean.

To " advanc e the profess ion of Chiropody, both through research and interchange of ideas, and through
specialized training" was the academic gool of the founders of the college. They al so wished to instill into
the minds of young men and women on appreciation of the vo luoble se rvices they could render mankind through
the relief of foo t and re!oted elements. Throughout the years, these basic principles hove been wavered .

During the first six years of its existence, Ohio College of Chiropody wos located in the Republic
Building ot 647 Eu c lid Avenue , and consisted of a lectu re hall , o laboratory and 8 clinical choirs. The
first c la ss of 20 students wo s graduated in 1917, the duration of th e course being at that time only one year,
ond the admission requirem ents, a hi gh sc hoo l ce rtificate.

Througho ut th e yea rs, th e requirements hove been gradually increased, and the coverage of subjects
hos been mo de more comprehensive, preparing the stud ent, upon g ra duati on, to meet his responsibilities
with confidence and ski ll. In additi on to the comp rehens ive c urriculum ond important clinical work, the
student also learns the proper admi nistrative procedures of establishing and maintaining a chiropodicol
practice.

In September, l 929, the College moved to a new hom e in Playhouse Square-the fourth floor of a
buildi ng located at 1620 Euclid Ave nue . These foci Ii ties hod class rooms for a bo ut 200 students, histori-
cal , pathological , bacteriol og ical , and chemistry loboro tori es, and executive offices.

From the beginning, Dr . Mox S. Horm olin, kept before him the vision of some day having a build-
ing that would be a monument to the profession, and provide the finest physical appointments and teaching
facilities . In 1931 plans were started fo r a new building to mee t the demand of on increased student body
and the in crea sed academic goals of a growing profession. Thi s building, the present site of the school at
2057 Co rnell Ro:id, was formally dedicated in 1932.

VVith the passing of the years the sc hool hos ob taine d th e teaching serv ices of man y of Cleveland's
most prominent ph ys icians, dentists, ond chi ropodists. Clinical facilities ho ve continued to improve throughout
th e schoo l's 41 years of progress, during which t im e t he adva nce me nt of th e profession of Chiropody hos
greatly been aided.

As Commencement Time approaches
and you stand ready to leave your
Alma Mater, consider the experi-
ences, the excitement and oppor-
tunities that will be yours. Given
your normal span of life, fifty use-
ful years are ahead of each of you
to do with what you will in making
the world a better place in which to
live.

The average college graduate still
inclines to the belief that once he
has acquired his diploma and has
begun his career, his educational
responsibilities to himself and his
fellow men have been discharged.
Don't be a passive spectator but an
active participant; take advantage
of each opportunity offered to you.
Join your professional organiza-
tions. Keep yourself from going
stale by continuing your post grad-
uate studies.

Resolve to enjoy the practice of
Chiropody. Plunge into it with
verve and joy. Remember that a
patient is someone in need of help.
Take an added interest in his wel--
fare and that of his family.

In the years that you have spent
here, you, the members of the Senior
Class, have gained knowledge. Now,
as your Graduation D ay approach-
es, may you determine to turn this
knowledge into power. May you,
with God's help, use this power
wisely and well.

I congratulate you upon your grad-
uation and wish you every happi-
ness and Godspeed on your road of
life.

ADMINISTRATION

Authoritative economi. ts and sta- B. C. EGERTER, D.S.C.
tisticians agree that we are on the President
threshold of a decade or more year
considered to be the most progres-
sive in our history. The status of
the American people is truly one of
"Changing Time.·". Qualified per-
sons whose business is to study and
analyze trends prophesy that this
evolutionary period can be justly
labeled the "Golden Era".

One of the outstanding character-
istics of our age is the dramatic
change evidenced in our mode of liv-
ing through the progressive efforts
of scientific research and industry.
The Atomic Age is introducing new
horizons to the American people,
and these new concepts cannot be
furthered through the use of out-
dated philosophies and convictions.
In order to meet the challenge of
this era, we . must re-evaluate our
viewpoint and adapt them to meet
the requirements of the times. The
professional man is no exception in
this reorientation. Certainly, more
than ever it has become important
for him to understand the overall
obligations of his profes ion and at-
tempt to reorganize his profession -
al life to meet these "Changing
Times".

In the span of a few weeks you
will no longer be senior students
and underclassmen - you will be
doctors and colleagues ; you will he
an integral part of the greatest
branch of the healing arts.

,ve have confidence in you com-
pletely, whether it be yo{1r lot to

,i\serve as leaders or as follower . 7e

believe that when the time comes
you will play a very important role
in this "Golden Era"; that you will
have preserved the vision that we
have tried to give you here and will
give admirable credit to yourselves,
your profession and your Alma.
Mater.

Class History

As we look back to September of 1953 we remember 29 total strangers getting together for the
first time to form the Freshman Class of the Ohio College of Chiropody. Our first task was to elect
Phil Davidson, as our class president, to lead us through the first year. Despite the fact that there
were 29 opinions on how to run a class, we developed unity that was to last throughout our four years
at the college. The officers assisting the president were: Dick Redding, Vice President; Nancy Con-
rad, Secretary; and George Budak, Treasurer.

At the end of our freshman year we lost Doyle Hill to medical school, Russ Jones due to illness,
and we also lost John Maddox and Gene Hunter.

As we entered our Sophomore year we looked forward to a year that would be both educational
and memorable. It was the year that we were first introduced to the Cleveland Foot Clinic. Dr.
George Krimm helped us immeasurably by orientating us to the clinical methods. It was quite a
"kick" to pick out our first set of Chiropody instruments and the clinic "whites". The officers for our
second year at the college were: Dick Redding, President; ,i\7illiam ,i\Tatson, Vice President; Mark Rap-
paport, Treasurer; and Nancy Conrad, Secretary.

During the second _vear we lost Hal Boyle to ,vestern Reserve medical school, but gained Phil
Cully and Jay Fruchter, who had recently returnee! from the service.

In the third _year the class chose Jack Glick, els class prexy. He was assisted by E. 0. Jenkinson,
Treasurer; and Harv Saperstein, Secretary. As usual the highlight of the social season for the class
was the annual Christmas party which was held at the apartment of the "Happiness Bo_vs". This was
the night that we unveiled the new 20 cubic foot bathtub that was filled to the brim with "The product
that made Milwaukee famous".

It was the year that our class was invited to be the guests of Eli Lilly and Co. of Indianapolis,
Indiana. It marked the first time any Chiropody group was ever invited to a pharmaceutical house.

/ ,ve had finally reached the last year of our professional
college career and it was indeed a busy year. Beside our usual
/f, class sessions and clinic, we were also affiliated with Highland
View and Benjamin Rose Hospitals. Jack Glick had done such
a good job as our junior president, that the class returned him
to office for our final vear. Ed Kendrick was elected Vice
President, Irv Berger as 1.'reasurer, and Sid Lieb as our Secre-
tary.

This is just a resume of the histor_v of the Class of 1957,
for if I were to record it in its entiretv, it would fill many more
pages than are contained in this book, and would not be com -
pleted until that day when each doctor retired from his profes-
sional life.

Fruchte ,- .

Having completed our Junior Year, we the Class of 1958, continuously increasing in
wisdom and stature, are finally entering our Senior Year at the Ohio College of Chiropody.

Time has passed so rapidly, that 1954 seems as yesterday when we first entered the
doors of O.C.C. embarking on a new life and career. In this short span of but three _years,
we who are maturing along with the field of Chiropody are cognizant of the tremendous
progress Chiropody has made in this short period of time.

vVe are highly indebted to Dr. Brahms for his excellent instruction and unselfishness
in giving up his time to fill in the vacancy created by the illness of Dr. Robbins, and in ob-
taining us a new anatomy instructor.

Upon completing our Junior Year in the Clinic we have come to realize that a
CHIROPODIST is a Doctor who is truly capable of handling any condition of the foot and
leg.

To our present seniors we wish to extend sincere thanks for the time and effort each
of them has so willingly sacrificed on our behalf, without this our education would have been
incomplete. Congratulations to each of you and best wishes for a successful and prosperous
future.

Clinic Administration

The Clinic Staff at the Ohio College of

of Chiropodists our college sends out into the
field each year.

,ve have been objective in our criticism. At GEORGE KRIMM
no time has any student been forced into a de- D.S. C.
cision. At all times you, as students, have
been able to sit down with a clinician and di s-
cuss your clinical problems. This has hem nn
important factor in _your training.

Looking back, I should think you woulcl be
proud of your clinic work. The many people
you have made comfortable, the children you
have treated, and the pedal problems you have
been instrumental in correcting should give
you a true sense of a job well don e. I think
vou have worked hard and done well. ,Just
keep up the good work in your offices a n<l you
will be a success in its tru e meani ng .

On behalf of the Clini c Staff may I wish you
th e very best of everything in the ye11. rs to
come.

The Ohio College of Chiropody Chapter (Kappa Chapter) of Alpha Gamma Kappa
Fraternity this year success fully initiated a program of events aimed to aid each frater-
nity member and each student in becoming a well-rounded profess ional man.

As the largest active chapter of a national professional chiropody fraternit y
(A.G-IC), Kappa Chapter attempts to supplement the member's experience at O.C.C. by
giving him a working knowledge for integration into th e community life in which he wil l
practice hi s profession. It is purposeful then tha t the graduate will receive in his college
period some introduction to investments, community service and social organizations, and
other extra-technical projects.

Now associated with K appa Chapter is A.G.K.'s larges t Graduate Alumni Chapter,
whi ch has been a nd always is a const a nt source of advice and coun sel to its undergraduate
group.

As is customary for Phi Alpha Pi fraternit y, another outstanding year was recorded
rn our chapter history.

Scientifically, our chapter presented such outstanding lecturers as Dr . Harper, a fel-
low of Cleveland Clinic; Dr. A. Rubin, secretary of the N.A.C.; Dr . Raymond K . L ocke, Dr.
Samuel Korm a n, an d Leo Murphy, trainer of the Cleveland Brown s.

Highbg hting the _year 1956-5 7, was our annual Phi Alpha Pi National Convention
which was held at the Statler Hotel in Cleve la nd, Ohio. At thi s convention , such nationally
famous sp eak er s as Dr. Allen P. Joslin of the world famous Joslin Clinic, Dr. ,villi am B.
Ign a toff, Dr. Henri DuYries, Dr. R a mon D . J acobs, and Dr. Malcolm A. Brahms, lectured
with admirabl e success.

Th e fr a ternity enjoyed a dinner banquet a nd men's stag, during th e convention , and the
annual Spring Formal again highlighted another commendable social progra m.

,i\Tith this sc ientifi c and social program completed, we can truthfully say that we h ave
been a credit to our profess ion and an asset to our college.

KAPPA TAL' EPSILON FRATERNITY is the independent fraternity here at THE
OHIO COLLEGE OF CHIROPODY. Being a small, close knit, fraternity, home demon-
stration meetings are greatly concentrated upon in our program. The idea behind the home
meetings being that the individual student actually does a procedure himself, thereby giv-
ing himself the actual practical experience and build in him a feeling of self confidence.

The fol lowing fraternity functions were held at the school this year:
Dr. R. J. Suppan of B arberton, Ohio, lectured on "Orthopedics As Seen 111 Children
through Adolescence."
A meeting held in the surger_y room, using the facilities of the surgical department,
concentrated on bas ic surgical scrubbing principles. Sterile techniques were demonstrated
by the fraternity members to the freshman class members.
Dr. J. T. Brightwell lectured and demonstrated the appli cation s of Plaster of Paris
Cnstings for Tramatic Injuri es to the Hands, Feet and Legs.
A social meeting of membe rs and wives was held at the home of ::\fr. and Mrs. J . V.
Capodici in Beachwood, Ohio.
Initiation dinner and ceremonies were held in April at The Skylight Restaurant rn
Cleveland H eights.
The school year was topped off with a Senior Farewell Party attended by alumni wives
and dates late in May.

In our world of today, where an ai rpla ne ca n circle the globe within a day, a ship can cross an ocean
in hours ; and elect ric communications can bring toge th er co ntin e nts in a ma tte r of minutes; it is beco min g
more impe rativ e th a t people of a ll na tion s lea rn to li ve with one a noth e r wiUiout r egard to race, c reed o r
1eligion. Thi s, as we know, is th e ultim a t e g oal of the Un ited Nations in ord e r to c reate an id eal world .

H e re loo, at our school, we have a small working U nited N a tions. :Every year new future chiropodists
representing every state of th e union a nd foreign countri es as well, try to a dju st th emselv es to the varied
p e rsonalities with whom th ey will be associati ng not o nly ia the next four years, but also upon grad ua tion.

So we must realize, no matt e r how much know ledge we acquire, if we d o not strive t o accept our fellow
stud ents for what they are, and not because th ey are of any particular race, c reed, or reli g ion, we cannot
expec t to make bette r men of ourselv es; nor ca n we rea lize th e hopes of having o ur profession reach its right-
fu l st atus in todays society.

Thu s, when the time comes th a t we r ecognize a ma ns' va lu e by the gains he has ma de, then we ca n
t ruly say, that he re we have a workin g democ racy, a sma ll scale mod el of a n ideal wor ld . . . . . .

The year 1956-57 ma rk ed a n enco ur ag ing growth in the activity of the stud ent co uncil. A plan was worked out in the
spring of 1956 for a stronger and la rger coun cil and the student body, in the September co nvocat ion, vot ed to put the
plan into ef fect. It call ed for a council of from twelve to fourteen membe rs consisting of three m embe rs from ea.c h class,
two being elected, the third being the class president. Four functional committees would be set up: 1) Curriculum,
2) Social, 3) "\lvelfa re, and 4) R ecr eation .
U nder the fine leade rship of the co un cil off ice rs : Co rtl a nd Stiles, President; Gerald Garron, Vice President; Anthony
Kloka, Secretary; a nd E dwa rd Fiffick, Treasurer, and with the splendid cooperation given by other members of council,
much of an encou rag ing a nd const ructive na ture has been clon e. Monthly convocations have been h eld, led by co uncil offi-
cers a nd a numbe r of excellent speake rs ha ve been heard, which included form er Clev eland Mayor Edwin Blythin a nd a
number of Chiropodists. New a rrangements were made for vending machines which supply a greater variety of hot and
cold drinks and from the sa le of which the stud ent counc il will receive a commission of 10 % . Checker a nd chess games
were furnished for th e lo un ge a nd three ping-pong tables a nd a shuff le board set for the gym. Tourn aments in touch
footba ll a nd ping-pong were co nducted . A get-acquainted dance was held ea rl y in U1 e fall. A program for polio shots to
students a nd wives was ca rried through. Th e use of vis ual a ids was increased.
At the last conv ocation, held May 8th, new officers were elected. Th ese are: P a ul L ef koff, Pres id ent; Edward Fiff ick,
Vice Presid ent ; Fred Swain, Secretary; and Douglas Siler, Treasurer. With the devotion of these off ice rs and the prog-
r ess already made, the year 1957-58 promises to be a noth er yea r of accomplishment for the stud ent council.

This year's Student Council has set a new standard for the forthcoming
Student Councils of O.C.C. Particular emphasis was p laced upon a more
functional coun cil elicited from a closer assistance by the co llege adm inistra-
tion. The new concept of a closer front office and council relationship has
proved its worthiness by its accompli shments for the year. With the guid-
ance and help of Dr. Herbert Knowles the council is proud of its contributions
to the Ohio College of Chiropody during the 1956-1957 term.

As editor of this year's Occopodian, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those
students, faculty and friends without whose help this issue could not have been possible. Two
people especially have been invaluable in getting this publication to press, Mr. Samuel Abrams
and Mike Perrone, the Occopodian's official photographer. To these two, and all the others, the
staff and I say thanks for a job well done.

v\Te hope all you who read this book enjoyed it as much as we who worked on it. We had
fun getting it together and hope it has given you some pleasure as you have glanced through it.

If not now, maybe in ten or fifteen years as you will think back on the days of your educa-
tion, this book will bring to mind some of the more pleasant phases of that period and also bring
back some of the faces of classmates who due to geography and other reasons you have not seen
fo r years . If it accomplishes this, we of the Occopodian staff will feel our job has been worth -
while.
