Report of the Administration

A number of significant programs were inaugurated bythe Orthopaedic Institute in 1983.

In orthopaedics, the new Occupational and IndustrialOrthopaedic Center began addressing the complex of problemsrelated to employees injured in the workplace, with the goalof returning them to healthy, productive lifestyles as rapidlyas possible. While this specialized research, concentration ofinjury data and the development of treatment models presentformidable problems, as the largest orthopaedic specialityhospital in the United States we are uniquely configured toundertake these challenges. Worldwide, The United Nationsplaces the number of workers injured in the workplace eachyear at more than 500,000,000. Clearly, the magnitude of thisresponsibility entails long-term commitments in both Statistics for 1983 showresources as well as institu- the Hospital recordedtional outreach. an 8 percent increase

These included a lumbarsupport belt and an ergonomically improved mailbag. Perceivedin an historical frame-of-reference, this new version of themailbag is the first improvement since it was invented byBenjamin Franklin in the 1700's.EDUCATIONALLY, the 0.I.O.C. established important re-

lationships and affiliations with New York University to im-plement joint efforts in teaching ergonomic biomechanics andorthopaedic biomechanics. We conducted seminars detailingapplications for the institute's "Orthopaedic-Arthritis PainCenter," for the nation's major insurance companies, dealingwith chronic pain.For 1984, the 0.1.0.C. envisions a significant outreach as

the Center moves to implement programs for reducing mus-culoskeletal injuries in work situations. As a corollary to thiseffort, the Occupational and Industrial Orthopaedic Centerwill sponsor, with the World Rehabilitation Fund, the first"International Conference on Injuries in the Workplace" in1984. The World Health Organization and the InternationalLabour Organization of The United Nations will cosponsor

' the conference.In Medical Education, our staff cooperated closely with the

Department of Community Medicine of the Mount Sinai Schoolof Medicine, particularly in the area of hospital employeeinjuries.The Institute's orthopaedic residency training program

continued to be strengthened during 1983. The Instituteawarded specialty fellowships in bioengineering, pathology,hand, pediatrics, spine and research.

The comprehensive arthritis service was established in1983, with Gary Solomon, M.D., as Medical Director and StevenA. Stuchin, M.D., as Surgery Director. The new service'sprofessional activities include joint replacements,radiation synovectomies,lymphophresis arthritis, andimmuno-genetic researchand familial arthritis projects,tracing histories and influ-ence of family genetics ondiseases.

In other facets of progressin the Department of Rheumatic Diseases, new fellowshipswere added during 1983, joining those engaged in three-yearfellowship projects. Additionally, the National Cancer Instituteawarded significant new grants for research into genetic aspectsof rheumatic diseases. Also, the department was recognizedby The Arthritis Foundation and American RheumatismFoundation as "among the ten most outstanding" programsin rheumatology in the United States. Subsequently, the Brit-ish Travelling Fellows in rheumatology sought out the hospitalto receive a formal visit from the fellows as part of England'spolicy of visiting the preeminent institutions throughout theworld.The Orthopaedic Center For The Arts became operational

in 1983 and immediately undertook priority work with musi-cians who perform regularly at Lincoln Center. The long-term goal of the 0.CA is to develop a definitive body of medicalknowledge to meet the specialized orthopaedic needs ofmusicians, dancers and artists. To succeed in this quest, theO.C.A. has mobilized the skills of an interdisciplinary teamof clinical practitioners and researchers to identify, quantifyand develop treatment modalities for musculoskeletal problemswhich affect the professional lives of the nation's artists. Sig-nificantly, a number of universities and musicians' groupshave requested results of this research. In addition, morethan a dozen professional papers have been accepted forpublication on the problems of performing musicians, re- Significant findings areflecting the original research reported after testingbeing carried out at the string instrumentsOrthopaedic Institute, musicians forDuring the year the HJD musculoskeletal ills.

Research & DevelopmentFoundation, Inc., was organized, to implement and ensurethe growth of the Hospital's varied research and developmentprograms. These current projects, and others envisioned forthe future, will benefit from the FoundatiOn's activities formany years to come.

In another area of innovative medicine, the Institute's Or-thopaedic-Arthritis Pain Center is experiencing success intreating patients with histories of intractable, chronic pain.

Statistics reveal that 80 percent of all Americans sufferfrom low back pain at some point in their careers, and thisproblem continues to be the second most common illness inindustrial societies. It is one of the most costly medical problemin America. In 1983 the Back School completed four coursesin the program. Each class accommodates seven patients,who receive instruction in anatomy, correct methods of buildingback and other muscle strength and proper lifting procedures.In programs for youngsters, the new instrumentation

in our Communications Laboratory is the most advanced andcomprehensive in the United States. It is by means of thisLaboratory, in the Center for Neuromuscular and Develop-mental Disorders, that our children/patients became able toenter a new phase of their lives—through self help—andgreatly enhance their ability to communicate with others inall environments. In addition, the Center's pre-school programserves an average of 40 children with birth defects such asCerebral Palsy and Muscular Dystrophy in an early stimulationnursery school setting.The Division of Bioengineering achieved several substantial

goals in 1983, including significant increases in researchprojects. These involved investigations of the state-of-the-artin ligament mechanics, prosthetics and rehabilitation. Duringthe year our growing interaction with Cooper Union Schoolof Engineering was strengthened. Our degree program withCooper Union, involving teaching and research projects, wasmeasurably enhanced during 1983 with the creation of addi-tional winter scholarships. These, when added to the summerscholarships, enable scholars to receive unique training Bioengineering staffat The Orthopaedic Institute, members served asSports Medicine re- Principal Investigator for

Increasingly, colleges seek professional treatmentfor their athletes at our Sports Center, including City Collegeof New York, Borough of Manhattan Community College and

Paka

Medgar Evers College. Our medical staff covered area footballgames during 1983, along with conducting weekly screeningsat Hunter College for athletic injuries.

These programs will be expanded in 1984.The Division of Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery noted

progress in three areas during 1983: augmented facilities forpatients, added treatment modalities and staffing levels. Thechildren's playroom area on the eighth floor was enlarged,and the music therapy program augmented when musictherapists were added to the division. A total of 950 pediatricadmissions were recorded in 1983, with 886 operative pro-cedures performed. Wallace B. Lehman, M.D., chief of thedivision, initiated research projects in 1983, including investi-gation of bone implants. This work has an unusually highpotential for impact on pedi-atrics.As you can see, The

Hospital For Joint DiseasesOrthopaedic Institute is ex-panding the scope of its ac-tivities to meet the increasedneeds of patients throughoutthe world.The financial climate of

1983 was volatile, creatingmultiple problems for thosebearing responsibility of assuring the fiscal stability andgrowth of our institution. We are indebted to Dr. Henry Son-neborn for his sage fiscal counseling of the last few years.The Institute ended 1983 with an operating deficit of approx-imately $967,000 before contributions and investment income.Primarily, this deficit is the result of providing more than$1.5-million in free, charitable care. The hard work of ourFiscal Director, John Owens, and his department is to becommended.

Newly establishedPediatric Limb DeficiencyClinic meets twicemonthly. A MetabolicBone Disease Clinic anda Leg Length DiscrepancyClinic have passed fromthe conceptual stageto become active goalsfor 1984.

THE SOLIDARITY OF FIJI) ALUMNI

The strength of an institution derives from one of humankind'sstrongest bonds: loyalty. In Atlanta, at the Annual FIJI) Alumni Dinner,Joseph E. Milgram, MD., rose to underscore the rewards of loyalty whenshared by a vigorous Alumni acting in concert with a thriving ahnamater.

In respect to contributions, in 1983 the DevelopmentCommittee, headed by George M. Jaffin, Esq., succeeded inraising 1.75-million dollars. He was professionally aided byJack Herman, Director of Marketing and Development, andby our Director of Public Affairs, Donald Young, Jr.

Trustee Tibor Fabian, Ph.D., Chairman of the StrategicPlanning Committee, acting in unison with Felix Kaufman,Ph.D., established the foundation for our new financial com-puter system. We anticipate exceptional returns from thisnew system in terms of productivity and fiscal modernization.

Clearly, one of the top priorities for all hospitals is thequality and professionalism of its nursing staff. We congratulateMrs. Bertha Leubsdorf, as Chairman of the Nursing and PatientCare Committee, for her leadership in this important area.Sue Chapro, Janice Berkeley and members of the Women's

Division, once again, merit our highest praise for theirinvaluable work in making this institution a showcase for"volunteerism."One of our more valued associations is with the Federation

of Jewish Philanthropies, with which we share a number ofadministrative programs. Our institution is a charter memberof Federation, a relationship we have cherished for the last78 years. During 1983 we hosted a number of executive groupsfrom Federation and we anticipate expanding the scope ofthis interrelationship during 1984.The Institute is growing both in services and national

and international reputation. Al home, we continue to seekout new ways to serve our community Internationally, as ourphysicians continue to be recognized for their achievementswe will continue to provide leadership in orthopaedics andrheumatic diseases.Our extensive medical and research outreaches are highly

rewarding—and also very costly. As we review 1983, it is ap-propriate we note the activites of the Associates, headed byChairman Stuart J. Voisin and President Robert Rosenthal, andtheir very generous support of the Institute. Just as the Asso-ciates responded to our need for elaborate computer andhigh technology hardware in 1983, they have answeredthe call to support theOrthopaedic Center forthe Arts next year.The administrative staff is

to be praised: Nicholas G.Fanos, Charles Colombaris,Ralph Fingerle and a legion of other dedicated health careprofessionals. It is this group of people, with their trainingand finely developed skills,who are the heart of theOrthopaedic Institute.Our efforts, all of our

professional resources andmuch of our personal lives are invested in the belief that weare privileged to be the stewards of a portion of medicalknowledge that will, inevitably, benefit the humankind weserve.

01 R MESSAGE AND THE MEDIA

On the average, a news story about the Hospital forJoint Diseases Orthopaedic Institute was aired on one or more New York City television stationsevery nine days during 1983. According to Arbitron ratings, this means that approximately 40,000,000 viewers in the City got our messages. In ad-dition, those stories carried on WPIX-TV, WNEW-TV and WOR-TV were syndicated to more than 100 Cable systems in 22 states, adding another 180-million viewers for each program. In print, stories about our Medical Staff, programs or medical advances appeared in newspapers in Europe, Africa,South America and Canada. Here, Michael M. Lewis, M.D., tells reporters from all six TV stations, the Associated Press, United Press International,the Daily News and The New York Post, about his development of a prosthesis that can prevent limb amputations in pediatric patients. The total printexposure for his accomplishment exceeded 150-million readers.

Report of the Women's Division

THE OLD ROMANS were the first to use the word"Privilege," and it referred to a legal document that granteda special "right," or "benefit" to someone, usually as areward of some kind. I want everyone to know how much ofa "privilege" it is for me to be giving the Annual Report forthe Women's Division of the Hospital for Joint DiseasesOrthopaedic Institute. I very much feel it is a personal privilegeto have shared the year 1983 with such wonderful and dedi-cated people.

We have accomplished many things here at the Hospital,much of it due to the efforts of our Volunteers. Throughthe dedicated labors of the Director of Volunteer Service,Mrs. Sidney S. Berkeley, a total of 683 Volunteers gave 84,512hours to the Orthopaedic Institute.

One of the new things she started last year was the NewYork University Bio-Medical Program. It has provided manyrewards, both to the students and our Hospital. It offersexceptionally motivated students, those with high aptitude inthe sciences, an opportunity to learn in the scientificallyright environment we have here. The students were assignedto various departments in the hospital, and received lose,personal attention from their supervisors. It is a highlysuccessful program.

OF COURSE WE still suffer through the mountain ofpaperwork required by government agencies, which, as youhave read about, continue to reduce and cut-back on sup-port for nonprofit and medical programs.

The "Tour Program" was expanded during 1983, much tothe delight of Community and Business organizations. Weare able, through this Outreach project, to tell many peopleabout our services and participation in Community life.

In addition, we continued the weekly recreational therapyprogram; bi-weekly library service to patients throughoutthe Hospital and maintained the Gift Cart service to patientson the nursing floors.

Throughout the year religious services were conducted onthe various holidays, and during the holiday season giftpackages were given out to patients in the hospital and clinics.

ONCE AGAIN, two Women's Division Volunteers dressedas Mrs. Claus, distributed gifts to all patients and the children.

Speaking of gifts, without question a great deal of timeand energy are spent by all of us who work to make the GiftShop a success. In connection with the Gift Shop, I extendmy deepest appreciation to the Chairman of the Gift Shop,Mrs. Frederick S. Herman, her committee and all the ladieswho volunteer there, for their tireless, dedicated efforts.

Another success was the opening of the new PediatricPlayroom on December 16, 1983. Funds from the Karl Leubs-dorf Memorial Fund and from the Women's Division madethe new playroom possible.

Susan Chapro

We are also grateful to the Emy and Emil Herzfeld Foun-dation, the Ruth Kirzon Group for Handicapped Children,Inc., the Handler Foundation, the Rogossin Foundation andthe Solin E. Summerfield Foundation, Inc., for their mostgenerous contributions for needy children.THE WOMEN'S DIVISION contributed $20,000 to theHospital in 1983 to establish a Wheelchair Fund, with interestfrom the fund to be used to purchase new wheelchairs. Inaddition, while the fund is accruing sufficient interest, theWomen's Division voted to purchase wheelchairs with otherfunds.

On a sad note, I report to you that during 1983 we lost twovalued members of the Women's Division, Mrs. HarrietWachenheim and Mrs. Mercedes Cheeseborough. We shallmiss them.

Finally, let me thank all of you for your loyalty and finesupport of the Women's Division during 1983. To Mrs. Berkeley,whose wise counsel I constantly seek; to Mr. Harvey Machaver,Executive Director and his administrators, for their supportof the Women's Division; to the Board of Trustees, which lendsits strength to each of us.

VOLUNTEER SERVICES DEPARTMENT 1983

The Volunteer Services Department of the OrthopaedicInstitute now in its fourth year on 17th Street is still faced withthe three problems noted last year: cutbacks in fundings fromfederal, state and local sources, the crisis which exists in vol-unteerism today and the burden of paper work.

Our last annual report stressed the importance of dialogueand communication as a major focus so that better under-standing of common goals might be established. Significantstrides have been made in this direction, particularly throughpresentations by hospital personnel at the Women's DivisionExecutive Board monthly meetings. The Volunteer ServicesDepartment is proud to report it has been able to carry onmany of the activites with which you are familiar and to in-troduce the New, N.Y.U. Bio-Medical Program. New particpants,both staff and volunteers, have to be helped to understandtheir roles and must exercise patience during the orientationperiod. Problems of recruitment continue—senior citizens,yes; younger ones, no. The senior citizens make an invaluablecontribution but younger people are also needed who canfit the needs of the hospital into their working lives. It is apleasure to report that from the neighborhood of the hospitalthree male volunteers continue to give many hours of serviceto our institution.

During the year 1983 a total of 683 volunteers gave 84,512hours of service, which was a marked increase in the numberof hours of service but a decrease in the number of volunteers.

COLLEGE WORK-STUDY PROGRAM

This program has remained active during the year 1983with 200 students clocking in 39,177 hours. These studentscame from the following colleges:

Baruch CollegeBorough of ManhattanCommunity CollegeBronx Community CollegeBrown UniversityCity CollegeCornell UniversityHunter College

John Jay CollegeLaGuardia CommunityCollegeHerbert H. Lehman CollegeNew York City TechnicalCollegePrinceton UniversityQueens College

JUNIOR VOLUNTEERS

During the year 1983 the hospital had 172 Junior Volunteerswho served 22,627 hours. The Junior Volunteers came fromthe following community projects: Washington Irving HighSchool Cooperative Program; Jewish Association of Collegestudents; Community Council of Greater New York (Out ofSchool Program); New York School for the Deaf.

SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL COMMUNITY PROJECTS

During July and August 1983 the hospital had 32 SummerYouth Employment Program volunteers who came from theCommunity Council of Greater New York, American Scholar-ship Association, Mayor's Office for the Handicapped andSpecial Services for Children. These students came from 29junior and senior high schools, colleges and universities andwere assigned to twelve different departments within thehospital and to the nursing floors.

Students received course credit for their volunteer hoursserved at Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopaedic Institute.They came from the following schools: Cathedral High Scnool,St. Emeric High School, Stuyvesant High School, Mabel DeanBacon High School, Regis High School, and Washington IrvingHigh School.

INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS

Internship programs continue with Barnard, Borough ofManhattan and LaGuardia Community Colleges.

UJA/FEDERATION LEADERSHIP GROUP GETS 'ART FOR HEALTH' TOUR

The Orthopaedic Institute's nationally recognized "Art for Health" program is a visually exciting way to spend an afternoon. Here, (at right) Hospital

Executive Director Harvey Machaver tells this group of UJA/Federation leaders that the program is designed to lure patients out of their rooms, into

the hallways. It works. And, in the process, helps the patients to recover more quickly by motivating them to be up and around following surgery. The

Hospital is the largest "art museum" in the United States, with nearly five miles of hallways and rooms destined to hold artworks by acclaimed artists.

The Hospital walls contain original works of Rauschenberg. Dail, Rosenquist, Picasso, Vasarely and scores of others.

GOOD AND WELFARE

Through Hospital Audiences, Young leadership of Federation,local schools and churches, professional singers, puppeteersand accordion players, entertainment was provided for allpatients throughout the year.The religious needs of all patients of all faiths were met.

Services were arranged for the Jewish holidays, Christmasand Easter Masses, Chanukah dinner for patients and guestsand holiday parties for the children for Halloween, Thanks-giving, Christmas and Easter in Pediatrics and the Center forNeuromuscular and Developmental Disorders.

HOSPITAL GIFT SHOP IS 'BEARISH' ON TOYS

The complex business of running the Gift Shop is handled by Mrs.Frederick S. Herman, chairman of the Gift Shop and Vice Chairmanof the Women's Division. Mrs. Herman, and other Volunteers, de-voted thousands of hours to operating the Shop, which carries a widevariety of items for patients and visitors—and members of our sur-rounding Community. "Come and visit," said Mrs. Herman.

WORK-STUDY PROJECT FOR VOLUNTEERS

Each Volunteer receives much more than a non-challengingjob to perform at the Hospital for Joint Diseases OrthopaedicInstitute. These Volunteers get first-hand experience with anelectron microscope in one of the hospital laboratories. Alongwith providing services to patients and departments of the Hos-pital, the interested Volunteer gets invaluable experience in avariety of scientific disciplines.

PROSTHESIS THAT 'GROWS' WITH PATIENT SAVES CHILDREN'S LEGS

Each year thousands of children throughout the world have legs amputated due to bone cancer. But now, thanks to an advanced prosthesis developedby Michael M. Lewis, M.D., of the Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopaedic Institute, some of these amputations are no longer necessary. The new pros-

thesis is designed to "grow" with the child. It can be adjusted and made longer with a simple procedure that involves a "key" which is inserted into theleg/prosthesis after the device has been implanted. Then, as the child grows, the prosthesis can keep pace with this growth. Generally, amputation in

pediatric oncology cases is necessary because, as the child grows, a large "leg discrepancy" develops in the length of the legs—causing a number ofother, serious complications. Shown here with TV, newspaper and science writers is a young patient of Dr. Lewis, her name is Jennifer, who received thenew prosthesis and was able to keep her own leg. The story was carried by more than 200 newspaper and television programs around the world. Sincereceiving the implant, Jennifer has returned to her normal school activities. The prosthesis was developed by Dr. Lewis with support from the Occu-pational and Industrial Othopaedic Center.

GAIT ANALYSIS PROJECT IN BIOENGINEERING

Thousands of New Yorkers suffer, along with millions of others throughout the United States, frommusculoskeletal disorders. Here, Paul Zeidel, M.D., a Fellow in Bioengineering, examines the results ofa Gait Analysis procedure carried out in the Occupational and Industrial Orthopaedic Center in theBioengineering Laboratory. The OIOC seeks to improve the productivity of workers, and to enrich theirlifestyles, through a greater understanding of the causes of musculoskeletal injuries which occur in theworkplace. Such understanding would mean a reduction in the number of such injuries, along with greaterefficiency in management of such cases. The high technology needed to implement this research is sup-ported by the Associates.

DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT

Voluntary commitment is the heart of our Hospital's Development Program.That is why we have been so successful in reaching the $15-million mark forour Centers of Excellence campaign at the end of 1983. The culmination of thiswas the annual Sponsors' Dinner for those who contributed $100,000 ormore for our various programs and projects. Sy:tell Markelson, the Smart FamilyFoundation and the Jacob Perlow Fund were our honorees. Tony Randallwas on hand and presented the awards with fun and good humor.

Mr. and Mrs. John Smart and daughter Nancy represented the Smart FamilyFoundation and were recognized for the Foundation's outstanding philan-thropy in support of our new research directions to advance the cure of diseasesof the joints and banes.

Sydell Markelson has been a friend of the Hospital for a longtime, supportingthe Occupational and Industrial Orthopaedic Center and the OrthopaedicCenter for the Arts. Her voluntary commitment is deeply appreciated.

Toni Greenberg and Samuel Seidel received Sponsors' Award for themselvesand Joseph Warren in the name of the Jacob Perlow Fund. Their substantialgrant established the Jacob Perlow Hip Fellowship at the Hospital.

New projects initiated during theyear included sponsorship by ourOccupational and Industrial Or-thopaedic Center of the first Inter-national Conference on Injuries inthe Workplace, in conjunction withthe World Rehabilitation Fundfounded by Dr. Howard A. Rusk TheWorld Health Organization and theInternational Labor Organization ofthe United Nations were the otherco-sponsors. Professionals from 33nations participated in this unusualconference.

Our OIOC is designed to improve the life-style and productivity of workers

by understanding the cause, reducing the number and managing efficiently

the musculoskeletal injuries which occur in the workplace. These injuries cause

orthopaedic disorders costing our nation's business and industry a staggering

25 billion dollars each year.

The Orthopaedic Center for the Arts is developing a complex body of

knowledge that can extend and enhance the professional careers of musicians,

dancers and artists by researching their problems and providing them with

medical services which correct their highly specialized problems. Ergonomic

research is also continuing to assist with the seating and positioning problems

of musicians, artists and performers. Special thanks to Alex Rosenthal and to

Martin G. Segal for their efforts in bringing the attention of Lincoln Center

societies to this problem and for providing us the opportunity for continuing

our work with Julliard School and the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra for the

benefit of their musicians. Thanks to John Glasel, President of Musician's Union

Local 802, for his invaluable cooperation with this program.

The Associates completed their support for their computer project duringthe year and became formally identified with the HJD Research and DevelopmentFoundation because of their particular interest in research and high technologyThey accepted the Orthopaedic Center for the Arts as their project for the newyear. Their members and officers, especially Stu Voisin and Bob Rosenthal,have distinguished themselves by carrying out an extraordinary educationaland philanthropic program of activities.

Highlight of the year of voluntary commitment was the Associates' successfulHoliday Boutique headed by Mitchell and Donna Lapkin. They will repeat theevent in 1984.

The Associates held six educational and social dinner meetings during 1983with demonstrations in bioengineering or high technology at each event. Dr.Victor H. Frankel serves as medical advisor to the group.

I would like to thank Larry Ack-man, treasurer of the Associates,who served as Chairman of theJournal Committee for our Spon-sors' Dinner, which also inaugu-rated the new HJD Research &Development Foundation, for a jobwell done. Thanks also to RuthFrankel, Chairperson of the Patro-ness' Committee; to Elaine Malsin,Chairperson of our Awards Com-mittee; and to Tony Randall for do-nating his time and energy to makeour event a memorable one. Stuart Voisin Robert Rosenthal

The JOINA Physicians and Alumni Program went well over the million-dollar-mark in 1983. Their Palm Beach event was hosted by Dr. Jeff Penner and theevent, in conjunction with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons,was co-chaired by Dr. Frankel and Alumni President Dr. Mark Pitman.

Once again, our physicians demonstrated their loyalty and understanding ofthe voluntary commitment by their tremendous turnout in support of theSponsors' Dinner and Foundation Inaugural Dinner.

The organization of the HJD Research & Development Foundation, Inc.,represents a pivotal and exciting development. It is an integral part of the HJDtradition for our Trustees, Sponsors and Medical Staff to help supply not onlythe financial resources, but also the long range perspectives, directions andprograms for growing and changing conditions.

This function of the HJD Research & Development Foundation is in greatmeasure a tribute to the acumen, activities and dedication of these leaders. Thosewho play such leadership roles are understandably proud of this tradition aswe embark upon a rededication to meet the challenges of the 80's.

Our only area of inflexibility is our voluntary commitment to provide unex-celled care for patients. Our common goal is advancing the understandingof diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

We made a new beginning in 1983, thanks to those who have made a voluntarycommitment to our cause. Special thanks to Carroll and Milton Petrie, theMilstein family, Edith Roberts, Charlotte and Dave Lewittes, Adele and NormanMorris, Dr. Maurice Hexter, Dr. Joseph E. Milgram, Dan Shapiro and Bill Kahn,President and Executive Director of Federation, Alan and Margaret Kempnerand the many supporters and friends whose names are proudly listed in theDonor's section of this annual report.The Development Committee of the Board has continued toward our re-
