Wyngaarden, chairman of the Department of Medicine, has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences. Wyngaarden, who is Frederic M. Hanes Professor of Medicine, is one of 95 new members elected in recognition of what the academy calls "their distinguished and continuing achievements in original research." Election to the NAS is considered to be one of the highest honors that can be accorded to an American scientist or engineer. The academy is a private organization established in 1863 by a Congressional Act of Incorporation signed by President Lincoln. The act calls upon the academy to act as an official adviser to the federal government, on request, in matters of science and technology. Wyngaarden is a native of Grand Rapids, Mich., and earned his M.D. degree at the University of Michigan in 1948. He first joined the Duke faculty in 1956. From 1965-67 he chaired the Department of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania before being invited back to Duke as chairman of the department. ^1^ engineering and minors in hospital administration and mechanical engineering. For the past two years he has been president of the Health Facilities Planning and Engineering Corp. in Los Angeles. Prior to that he was assistant executive director of the Santa Ana (Calif.) Community Hospital. Torris has served as a consultant and project manager with a number of health care organizations in California and Indiana. He also was special assistant for facilities studies in the office of the Secretary of Defense in Washington, and from 1 961-66 he was medical construction liaison officer in the office of the Air Force Surgeon General. Torris' wife and three children are still living in Sylmar, Calif., and will move to Durham later in the year. PETER A. SAITTA DR. JAMES B. WYNGAARDEN ANTHONY R. TORRIS, JR.
