Students who express an interest in the program in family medicine must meet the admission requirements of Wilkes College. As Wilkes students, they must select a major which will allow them to meet the minimum natural science, social science, and communicative skills for poten- tial entry into the accelerated programs.

Mr. Garris plans to bring the subject up for council’s con- sideration Tuesday night and he expects it will be resolved at that time. “I expect we’ll have to contract with a company to collect the trash from the cans from-—now on; the road superintendent suggested.
