Professional news ^8 « JOLLY GOOD JOB — It's not every day that someone from Australia stops in to see Dr. Edward Pritchett and. personally thank him for the good job that he does. But on April 12, Ian Stockdale, the director of Lions International, visited Pritchett, an assistant professor of medicine, in the clinical electrophysiology lab and presented him with a plaque. The Lions became interested in cardiac research through their auxiliary work with one of Pritchett's patients, 18-year-old Kevin Hobba. Hobba, an exchange student living in the ^lome of a Lion's Club member in Oregon, suffered cardiac arrest in 1976 when he was on his way to the airport to return home to Australia. Hobba was transferred from Oregon to Duke and treated by Pritchett. The machine in the picture is a cardiac stimulator purchased by the Lions and the Order of the Eastern Star.
