Another nice letter was received from theCol. Anthony H. Ortenzis who are in Korea.Tony sends more information on what hedid between 1938 and 1966. "After W.WII, 1946-50, I was an R.O.T.C. instructorur the University of Wyoming, and whilethere I took a few courses in economics andbusiness administration. Since my militaryoccupation is logtstics, the Army sent meto graduate school at the University ofSouthern California where I received a.M.B.A. 1952." Tony has been teachingincourses in business administration for severalsemesters in Korea for the of Md U.overseas education program. He also tells\IS that Col. Will.

Hartk.)2316 Harcroft RoadTimonium, Maryland 21093There is good news, folks; we have heardfrom Nick Pi~'acano. Nick left our class in1942 after his freshman year to participatein the war. In 1946 he returned to WMCto complete pre-med requirements, thenwent to Philadelphia to med school. Afterinternship and residency there, he had acountry practice in Vermont a while, thenwent back to big city practice in Philadelphiawhere he also served as Medical Directorof the American Cancer Society. In1962 he joined the medical school faculty atthe University of Kentucky Medical Centeras a full-time teacher and Director of ContinuationMedical Education. Since then hehas also begun teaching both nursing andundergraduate Arts and Sciences studentsand has been made chairman of the Depart.ment of Public Health and Hygiene in theArts and Sciences College of University ofKentucky-this besides his medical schoolwork.As if this were not enough to shred theaverage human, our old friend Nick is alsoDirector of the newly-organized FamilyPractice Training Program at the MedicalCenter. He is Secretary of the Section ofGeneral Practice of the AMA and a memberof the Student Affairs Group of the Associationof American Medical Colleges-and afew other things like that. And you knowwhat? Last year Nick was elected by thestudent body of the U. of K. "their favoriteprofessor." Isn't that the greatest?Nick rnarried ca "little" Florida girl in1950 and they have five children, girls 13,II and 4 and twin boys 9; and they all loveliving in Lexington. Now for those of youwho are wondering and who remember thosemarvelous piano interludes in McDanielLounge, he does still play the piano, anddoes occasionally have a secret yearning toplay in a dance band! In fact, he helpedpay his way through med school with hisgreat talent. Would it not be wonderful tohear him play again? Practice, Nick, we mayall come to Kentucky.And while we arc having musical memories,remember our golden-voiced JeanneCorkran Mendell? Remember the excitementof her recitals? Remember the one whereshe did the nursery rhymes? And do youremember how we loved "blackouts" sittingin the donn hall listening to "Indian LoveCall" and "Silver Moon"?
