...medical service has been one of continued expansion and progress; despite this advance the Department of Physical Education and the Department of Hygiene find themselves confronted with a startling inadequacy of equipment and a paucity of personnel which render proper care for undergraduate health an impossibility. Neither the Stillman Infirmary nor Wadsworth House is adequate, and the staff of physicians under Dr. Alfred Worcester '78 is not large enough or well enough paid to enable them to give sufficient attention to the needs of the students...
Before 1901 the University took no official interest in the physical or mental welfare of the undergraduate body. At that time it first provided a physician who could be summoned to students' rooms, much to the dismay of the medical profession in Cambridge. In 1901 James Alexander Stillman '96 gave the present infirmary, stipulating only that "it should be made as perfect as was possible."

This is only one of the ways in which the School is seeking to extend its usefulness. Inside its walls its teaching and research have followed, and in a large degree led, the change of the last quarter of a century from a purely mechanical to a biological point...
...very young he intimately associated with the folk in his father's and mother's Chicago Civic Opera Company (now Samuel Insull's). He left Groton School to drive an ambulance in France. Returned to the U. S., he was popular at Princeton. Encouraged by Mrs. Stillman, he went to Milwaukee in 1925, lived in a boarding house, worked as a laborer in the family business. He is now an enterprising sales manager of International Harvester Co. Said he: "In my business one never knows where one will be sent next, so it is impossible to plan...
