the report caused comments from

of indignation.
If the whole matter is studied
carefully and the evasive and in

one point can be made. The men

either exercising their oratorical

Versatile
Needed,
Pre-medical colleges should strive - for a well-rounded curricu
lum, Dr. Marion Fay, dean of the Women's Medical College, said
yesterday.
She added that it was previously believed that students needed
only science credits in their pre-medical education, but now most
medical schools are beginning to
insist that students have a bache
lor's degree.
Dr. Fay said a more rounded
course is necessary because doc
tors are often called upon to ex
press opinions about "a Imo s t
anything," and they must be able
to work with and understand all
types of people.
Have Been Successful
Dr. Pay and Dr. Irene Maher,
assistant dbarx at the Women's
Medical College, are visiting the
, campus as part• of a tour to Penn
sylvania colleges. .
Thursday they spoke at a meet
ing of Alpha Epsilon Delta, pre
medical honorary:
- Asked about opp'ortunities for
women in - the field' of medicine,
Dr. Fay said women doctors have
been successful in every field of
medicine. She added that there
iS ari especially good opportunity
in surgery, although it requires
long :and expensive training, and
until recently there has been a
feeling of prejudice. Dr. Maher
said a woman doctor could suc
ceed anywhere, "if she's good.
She's got to be good."
New Building
:The Women's Medical College,
'in Philadelphia; celebrated it's
100th anniversary last year. It
was founded by a group of men
doctors because there were at that
time no medical schools for wom
en. There were 40 women in the
first class, now there are 186 in,
the school. Although they take!

Program
Dean Says
By DOT BENNETT
only women undergraduates, men
are admitted as residents, grad
uates, and facility members.
Dr. Fay said the Women's Medi
cal College has graduates all over
the country and in several for
eign countries as missionaries.
During the reign of Queen Vic
toria, the first Indian woman to
become a doctor was graduated
there, and the dean received a
letter from the Queen thanking
the college for helping the wom
an to get her educaticin. Dean
Fay said there have always been
many orientals at the school, as
well as students from other for
eign countries. The first woman
medical missionary in the world
was a graduate of the college.
Dr. Fay went to the Women's
Medical College in '1935 as head
of the Department of Physiology.
In 1943, Dean Margaret Craighill
went in the Army, and Dr. Fay
was acting dean until 1946 when
Dean Craighill resigned, and she
became dean.
Dr. Maher was one of Dean
Fay's students, and is now assis
tant dean; and practices medicine
in Germantown.
Dr. Fay said there are very few
women who begin medical studies
and don't finish, and that 93%.
remain in practice after they are
graduated, even though they may
marry, sometimes even before
they begin to study medicine.
She said Penn State students
who attend Women's Medical Col
lege are especially good students.

From Finland
The dogged determination of
four countries' postal departments
brought Finnish exchange stu
dent Kalle Sipila a girl friend's
letter Thursday, just four months
after she mailed it.
~~ Sy' .~
Marja Linnala, a hometown
friend, gave Sipila a wood-carved
bear as a going-away present be
fore he left for the U.S. On the
trip from Sweden to Denmark,
Sipila lost the bear's collar, and
wrote Marja for another. Her
reply has been keeping just one
step behind him ever since.
Marja's letter was mailed from
Helsinki, addressed to Denmark,
where Sipila was staying at a
friend's farm. By the time it got
there , though, he was off to ,
Holland, visiting more friends.
From Holland, Sipila sailed for
New York aboard the S. S. Volen
dam, Marja's letter in hot pur
suit. The letter got to New York
all rig h t, but the Volendam,
somehow, arrived in Montreal,
Canada.
Lost and alone, Marja's letter
stayed in the big town just long
enough to pick up a "Save Water"
postmark, and then took passage
all the way back to Helsinki for
a fresh start.
Sipila, meanwhile, fina 11 y
wound up at the Alpha Zeta
house. This time he stayed in
one place long enough for the
now elderly letter to sail the At
lantic a third time, cross the
mountains, and at long last in
form him that Marja had received
his request for a collar for his
bear.
