ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
PRINCE OF WALES MEDICAL COLLEGE, PATNA,
FOR THE
YEAR 1931-32.
Introductory.—The college has completed the seventh year of its inception.
Admission.—The number of students admitted into the college, in the
year under review, has been 41, of which one has been from the Central
Provinces, as per Government Order no. 10193-L. S.-G., dated the 30th
November 1925, which provides for one additional admission from the said
province, every sixth year, the candidate holding the Woodburn scholarship.
The statement showing the number of regular students, including the new
entrants, is given in. Table C.
Affiliation.—The
Government of Bengal in their notification
no. 281-Medical, dated the 25th January 1932, have allowed the students of this
college, to appear at the examination of the State Medical Faculty of Bengal.
This has been a great advantage to the students, who are unsuccessful at the
final M. B. B. S. Examination of the Patna University, as they get an easy
alternative to obtain a professional qualification.
Examination.—The Table Dappended shows the number of students
who were sent up and successful in the different examinations of the
U n i v e r s i t y .
Prizes and medals.—The following table gives the names of the winners
of the various prizes and medals awarded on the results of the college and
university examinations :—

The total number of students on the college rolls were 247, out of whom
140 were boarders of the college hostel, 39 resided in approved non-collegiate
host el s under st udent s’ Resi dence Commi t t ee and 68 were day schol ars,
residing with the recognized guardians.
Discipline.—There was an abortive strike amongst the students in
November 1931, over an alleged grievance for accommodation during sickness.
This was managed very sympathetically by the Principal and staff. Otherwise,
the discipline of students has been quite satisfactory ; most of them worked
regularly and took part in games,
Finance.—Financial position of the Institution is furnished in Table E.
Average daily attendance of students was 204 out of 248, the total number
on rolls. This gives an average of 82.5 per cent. of attendance daily.

RESEARCH.
Investigation on pharmacological actions of several indigenous drugs
has been carried out throughout the year.
An original article on hyqnotic action of Rauwolfia Serpentina (Dhan
Marua) has been published in the Patna Journal of Medicine in October 1931.
Anatomy.—A great improvement in the teaching of Anatomy has been
introduced by arranging to teach gross Anatomy by section method, whereby
students obtain an impression of actual reconstruction of human body, after
they have studied by dissection. This amounts to study of human Anatomy
both by analytical (dissection) and synthetic (sectional method) methods.
The following additions have been made to the museum models :
—
(1) Model of the development of brain.
(2) Articulated chimpanzee skeleton.
(3) Arculated skull of orangoutan.
(4) Mounted skeleton of a monkey.
Organic Chemistry.—Dr. K. N. Bagchi took over charge of the
department from Mr. M. N. Rudra on the 2nd January 1932 on his return
from England.
The teaching has been carried on usual lines. An innovation has been
made this year by introducing lectures in Organic Chemistry to the first year
students in the 3rd term.
Biology.—The teaching has been carried on as usual. An attempt has
been made to introduce oral examination, in addition to practical, at the
University Examination to bring the Biology Examination in a line with the
other subjects of study.
MATERNITY SCHEME.
Mrs. R. Oliver was appointed officiating Maternity Supervisor and there
is a proposal to appoint one permanently for the post, as the scheme does not
thrive without a permanent Maternity Supervisor at the head of affairs. In
1931-32, 326 labour cases occurred in. the Hospital and 24 students were
trained here and only 18 were sent to Bangalore.
From August 1931 it has not been necessary to send any more students
to Bangalore for maternity training.
This institution has acquired so much popularity that the number of
admissions of maternity cases is steadily increasing, and it may be hoped that
it will not be necessary to send any more students to Bangalore.
Visitors.—The college was visited in January 1932 by the Inspectors
appointed by the University consisting of Col. L. Cook, I.M.S., the Inspector
-General of Civil Hospitals, Bihar and Orissa, Lt.-Col. F. GOW, I.M.S., Professor
of Midwifery, Medical College, Calcutta, and Dr. K. S. Caldwell, Principal of
the Science College, Patna.
Concluding general remarks of the University Inspectors were :
—
“ We consider the general administration very satisfactory. Since the
last report the staff has been augmented and the number of beds in the
institution increased. The standard of instruction is well maintained.”
Lt.-Col. D. Coutts, I.M.S., was in charge of the institution throughout the
year.

To
THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF
BIHAR AND ORISSA, LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT.
Patna, the 22nd September 1933.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit for the information of Government the
annual report of the Prince of Wales Medical College, Patna, for the
year 1932-33.
It is gratifying to read that the standard of education of entrants into
the college is improving notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by communal
interests.
Improvements to the college have been held in abeyance during the
year owing to financial considerations, but the existing equipment and staffing
of the college should be more than sufficient to obtain recognition of the all-
India Medical Council.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
L. COOK, COL., I.M.S.,
inspector-General of Civil Hospitals,
Bihar and Orissa.
