Students Turned Down.
Although they have fulfilled the
credit requirements of the college
and passed successfully the examina-
lions prior to graduation, four seniors
of Drake Medical college, c. S. Cash
man, G. B. Ward, A. D. Roth and Les
lie Nourse, have found themselves
suddenly barred from the state medi-
cal examination.
Whether Drake university can Is.
sue them diplomas is now a question
of doubt, although their grades are
above average, since State Secretary
Thomas has refused to allow them
to enter for examination. They are
former graduates of other medical
schools and have completed the pres
ent course in two years, but Score
tary Thomas of the state board OF
health has ruled that they have not
spent the four years in medical col
.. lege as required by law.
Three of the seniors, c.. s. Cash
man. G. B. Ward, A. D. Roth, were
graduates of an esteopath school
and Leslie Nourse is graduate den.
tai student. When they matriculated
at Drake two years ago they were
given to understand, they say. that
with the credits furnished from for.
mer schools could finish the Drake
medical college course in two years
This they did. The former secretary
OF state board of health, DR.. ]. H
Kennedy, had rulee that the Law
meant four years In any medical col
lege. DR.. Thomas now rules that the
law means that the four years must
be in one medical college. Whethe,
Drake university must now make
good her alleged promises of two
years ago to these students Is ques
ton, and one that may be fought
out in the courts. The school may
have to comply with the ruling Of
DR.. Thomas and the state board Of
health. This will mean that these
students will have to put in two more
years at the medical college, taking
post graduate work, although they
have completed the course.
