Retiring president last week was slight, sparse-haired Dr. Frank Casto of Cleveland, who wears jaunty clothes and carries a silver cigaret case, believes in old-fashioned all-around dentists, grows sarcastic on the subject of single-track specialists. Elected president for 1936 last week was Dr. Leroy Matthew Simpson Miner, dean of Harvard's Dental School, president of the New England Dental Society. Bespectacled Dr. Miner, who looks almost as studious...
