Emergency Hospital Appointments.

Each year the Emergency Hospital vacan-
cies are filled by competitive examination.
The candidates are usually the graduates
from the local medical colleges, although it
is not restricted to such. 1t is, perhaps, the
most sought after appointment in the city,
since the advantages it offers for practical
work are great.
This year two graduates of George Wash
ington University were the successful applt-
cants. DIR. Glenn 1. Jones and DR.. George
Peterson have been appointed on the house
staff for a period of one year. Dr. Peterson
has served as inferno at the Bay View Hos
pital and DIR. Jones has served for the past
year at the George Washington University

venient If not dangerous to look behind. 1
