Osier's view on medical education and
the programs of former Duke medical
dean W. C. Davison. Dr. Davison met Dr.
Osier while the former dean was a Rhod

carried many of Osier's new concepts of
bringing medical education into the hos

States.

te football game. Classes planning special
reunions will have dinner parties that
evening.

given by Mrs. Douglas Knight, wife of the
University president, a concert by the
Ciompi String Quartet and a luncheon on
the West Campus are planned to entertain

will be open to alumni wives along with
faculty wives, students and nursing alum

October 7.
Employes previously making the $1.45
per hour rate set in May received the

standard for colleges and universities is
$1.15 per hour. Federal guidelines call for
gradual steps to $1.60 per hour by Feb
ruary, 1971. Duke's increase to $1.60 per
hour now puts the University nearly 2Vi
years ahead of federal minimums.
