Professorship Honors Dermatology Chief A new endowed professorship in dermatology at the medical center will be created in honor of Dr. J. Lamar Callaway. Callaway, a James B. Duke professor, the university's highest academic appointment, served as chief of the division of dermatology at the medical center for 30 years. The announcement came from Dr. William C. Anlyan, vice president for health affairs, following approval by the Duke Board of Trustees. ArJyan said that Callaway's friends, colleagues, former students and former patients have joined with, private foundations and pharmaceutical companies in contributing more than $250,000 toward the chair. Fund raising for the professorship will continue toward an eventual goal of $1 million, he said. Contributioiis to Medicine "Dr. Callaway, known to generations of dermatologists as 'Dr. Cal,' is being recognized for his long service to the university and his continuing contributions to medicine," Anlyan said. "It gives me great pleasure to know that the high standards he set for himself and for his students will be memoricilized in this way." Callaway is a native of Cooper, Ala., and a 1932 graduate of Duke's School of Medicine. He holds bachelor of science degrees both from Duke and from the University of Alabama. First Dermatology Chief After teaching briefly at the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Alabama, he joined the Duke faculty in 1937. In 1946, he was named first chief of dermatology, a position he held until August, 1975, when Dr. Gerald S. Lazarus succeeded him. A past president of the American Academy of Dermatology, Callaway has written more than 150 scientific articles and has co-authored three textbooks. In 1973, the American Academy of Dermatology presented its highest honor, the Gold Award, to the physician. m Doctor Says Have Another Cup DR. I.
