These physicians-to-be represented America’s, indeed the world’s, best and brightest hopes for a healthy future. Their medical school, Johns Hopkins (named for the dyspeptic, cranky, but decidedly wealthy Quaker merchant who endowed it), had only opened its doors 3 years earlier in provincial Baltimore, Maryland.
