Whatever happened to "Doc's" bedside manner? They had called Jim "Doc" from his short-pant days, because all his friends and family knew he planned to follow in the footsteps of his grandfather and favorite uncle - and become a doctor. But Jim is not a doctor. His medical education has never started, his Bedside Manner has never been tried out. Like so many dreams and ambitions of gentler days, they have been shoved aside by the harsh demands of war. At the beginning of this year, military requirements cut in half the number of students permitted admission in medical or pre-medical courses. This is only one reason why there is a serious doctor shortage now, but why that shortage will last long beyond the firing of the last shot. ..... 1945 Wyeth Incorporated Ad, A5119. 19450129
