Medical School

An opportunity to attend the Convocation on The Great Issues of Conscience in Modern Medicine held last September is coming your way via television between mid-April and mid-July. The entire proceedings were taped at the time of the meeting and have just been released for showing over some 45 stations throughout the country in a series of three 90-minute programs at weekly intervals. We will try to alert you as to the exact dates in your area, and you can check your local station schedules for the exact times. As an indication of the interest generated by a preliminary showing over a Boston station, over a thousand requests for transcripts were received following it. Don't miss this chance to return to Hanover via TV; we think you will find it very worthwhile. So will other physicians, your neighbors and friends if you remember to tell them of it.

Cards have already gone out to alumni who are scheduled to return for college reunions in June announcing (and requesting reservations for) a luncheon to be held at the School on June 16. If you are in the reuning groups and were missed, it was unintentional, so please contact us. We plan to arrange a second June luncheon for Dartmouth physicians during the AMA meetings in New York, and you should hear details of it soon.

It is time to report to you that the Rold C. Syvertsen Memorial Fund has now gone over the $7500 mark and occasional gifts are still coming in.

Among our recent visitors was Frank Foster M'30, still with the Lahey Clinic in Boston, who was in town during the Freshman Fathers Weekend. Pete Spiegel M'59 can be seen daily around the hospital where he is doing some work in Neurology. Frank Hoefle M'59 spent a day or two here skiing. Haig Kazazian M'60 came up from Hopkins recently to see the changes.

The Student-Faculty Slalom was run at Snowcrest in the rain on February 25, and resulted in a tie between Doctor Nice and Eric Sailer, Ma. A rumor persists that a technicality prevented a clearcut victory for the Faculty.

The wedding of Doug Zipes, Mi and Marilyn Jacoby in Rollins Chapel provided an outstanding social event for the weekend of February 18.
