The change of AJR editorship with next month's issue and the celebration of
the centennial year of the X-ray make this an appropriate time to
acknowledge the many distinguished editors who have served the American
Roentgen Ray Society. A review of these gentlemen's service to this Journal
is in no small measure a chronology of the Society's history itself,
especially during its first turbulent decade. The recounting of this story
should entertain and educate as well as pay tribute to these fine scholars.
Perhaps most of all, it should cause us all to reflect upon the tremendous
sacrifices made for radiology in the United States and for our Society by
these individuals.
