Gorman was selected to receive one award from the International College of Surgeons and another sponsored by the Davison Club at Duke. He will spend a term in an individualized program of study under the direction of Dr. John Ham in the Me d i ca 1-Surgica 1 Gastroenterology Unit at the University of New South Wales and the Prince of Wales Hospital in Randwick, near Sydney, Australia. Part of his time will be spent working in Ham's cHnical gastroenterology laboratory. Combined Program "The value of this program cannot be overestimated to a surgeon- to-be/' Gorman said. The combined program will allow him to "incorporate original findings in the laboratory with the constant, clinical medical care of my patients and the surgical procedures with which nruiny devastating diseases are cured or arrested." In addition, the trip will provide the opportunity for Gorman to compare the health care system of the United States with that of another country with a similar cultural heritage of British colonization, he said. "The International College of Surgeons hopes that the scholarship will assist Mike in broadening the scope of his studies and that he will be a goodwill ambassador for our country as well as for the college," said Dr. H.E. Strawcutter of Lumberton, who presented the check. Davison Club Gorman was selected for the Davison Club scholarship by a medical school committee headed by Dr. Shirley K. Osterhout, assistant dean for student affairs. Named for the late Dr. Wilbiut C. Davison, dean of the medical school from 1927-60, the club was established by a number of his former students, colleagues, friends and patients who contribute at least $1,0(X) a year to the School of Medicine. Gorman, who received a B.A. degree in zoology from Duke, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Gorman of Bay Village, Ohio. Scientist To Head Northwestern Dept.
