96 Students To Receive MD’s Sunday
Ninety-six fourth-year medical
students will march into Duke's
commencement exercises Sunday and
march out a short while later as MD's.
The new physicians, 85 men and 11
women, will take the traditional
Hippocratic Oath at 11:30 a.m.
ceremonies Sunday in Duke Chapel
before participating in the University's
graduation exercises at 3 p.m. in Cameron
Indoor Stadium.
John Elmore Lawrence, Jr., a
graduating senior from Raleigh, will
present the student address at the
Hippocratic Oath ceremony. Following
his talk and one by Dr. Thomas D.
Kinney, director of medical and allied
health education, outstanding members
of the class will be awarded prizes in
recognition of their achievements.
This year's graduating class includes
the first student, ever to earn both M. D.
and J. D. degrees in Duke's combined
doctor-lawyer program. He is John
Robert Ball of Auburn, Ala.
Five of the new graduates will receive
both their M. D. and Ph. D. degrees
Sunday after completion of Duke's
medical scientist program begun in the
mid-1960's. The "double doctors"
