GOVT. MEDICAL SCHOOL, RANGOON, FOR THE YEAR 1923-24

near future, give us an opportunity of teaching more efficiently and
introducing practical work.
Forty-five Third year students went to Madras on the 6th April 1923
under charge of Civil Assistant Surgeon D. R. Lewis to undergo three
months' training in practical midwifery at the Government Maternity
Hospital, Madras, and they returned on the 9th July 1923. One lady
s t u d e n t Mi s s A. Ta r di va l unde r we nt pr a c t i c a l Mi dwi f e r y t r a i ni ng a t
the Dufferin Hospital, Rangoon.
Indoor and outdoor games have been zealously played. The
students competed in the B.A.A. tournaments in Football, Hockey,
Tennis and the Annual Athletic Sports They won again the Junior
Challenge Cup and were runners up in the Junior League Football
Competition. Four of our students played for Rangoon in the District
Football Challenge Cup and helped to win the Beehive Trophy. They
were runners up in the Tennis Doubles Handicap. This is the first
year the school entered the Hockey competition, they drew in almost
all matches.
The Third year students won the Inter-year Football Shield. The
Fourth year won the Squad Shield and Medals and the Second year
the Stretcher Shield and Medals.
A proper playing ground for the school is still a sad want ; but until
the Municipal grounds are ready, we will have to carry on a hand to
mouth existence.
I am glad to say that during the year the general vitality of the
school has been well maintained, which was shown by the zeal and
energy displayed by the students in taking a very active part in the
Health Week Exhibition. Their part of the Exhibition was organized
and run by the School Union, to the members of which my thanks are
due.

LIEUTENANT-COLONEL A. FENTON, M.B., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Burma,
To
THE SECY. TO THE GOVT. OF BURMA,
Department of Education, Local Government and Public Health.
Dated Rangoon, the 30th May 1925.
SIR,
I have the honour to forward herewith the Annual Report on
the Burma Government Medical School, Rangoon, for the year 1924-25
with Statements A to G.
2. The year commenced with 175 students on the rolls, the same as
last year. Forty-one new students were admitted during the year.
Thirty-six students passed the final qualifying examination during the
year, while there were nine casualties from various causes, leaving a total
of 171 at the end of the year. The new students admitted possessed the
necessary educational qualifications.
3. No additions or alterations were made to the buildings during the
year under review.
4.The old arrangement commented on in the previous reports of
sending male students to Madras for Midwifery training continued
during this year and the need for having the training carried out in this
province is more and more felt. It is hoped, however, that facilities for
training will soon be available, now that the work of constructing the
New Dufferin Hospital is on hand.
5. Though the school does not possess a suitable playing ground,
the students distinguished themselves in the football and hockey
tournaments. The discipline and character of the students have been
reported to be good and satisfactory throughout the year.
Lieutenant-Colonel A. Whitmore, I.M.S., was the Superintendent
of the School up to the 6th October 1924 when he proceeded on leave
and was relieved by Lieutenant-Colonel J. Fuller Good, I.M.S. The
Superintendent and his staff carried out their duties in a satisfactory
manner throughout the year under report.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
A. FENTON, Lieut.-Colonel,
I . M . S . ,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Burma.
