Allen The George Garland Memorial Chapel and Supporting Rooms will be dedicated to the late chairman of the Duke Endow ment Trustees during Medical Alumni Weekend. The ceremony is scheduled for 4:45 p.m., Friday, November 7. Chaplain P. Wesley Aitken will present the chapel to the University and Dr. Barnes Woodhall, chancellor pro tern, will make the acceptance speech. Participating in the dedication will be the Rev. James T. Cleland, dean of the University Chapel, Rabbi M. Herbert Berger of Durham, Monsignor James Mc- Sweeney of Durham, and Dr. Morris Davis of the Duke faculty. Mr. Allen, a native of Warrenton, N. C., succeeded James B. Duke as chair man of the Duke Endowment Trustees in 1925 and served as chairman of the building committee during the construct ion of the West campus. He was among the first to be honored by having a building named for him during his life time when the University Trustees voted in 1954 to rename the classroom and administration building the Allen Build ing. Shortly after his death, his family and friends initiated a memorial fund to aid in construction of the long-awaited Duke Hospital Chapel. The chapel was designed keeping in mind that it must be useful to all faiths. The only fixed religious symbol in the room is a circular altar. The chapel is always open for private use with services for various religious groups scheduled by the Medical Center Chaplains Service. Supporting rooms, including a family meditation room, a group conference room and the chaplains offices are com pleted or near completion. It is anticipated that Mr. Allen's two daughters, Mrs. Will R. Gregg and Mrs. J. W. Fowkles, both of New York City, will be on hand for the dedication service. The Durham Chess Club meets every Tuesday evening (7-11 p.m.) at the West Durham Recreation Hall (corner of Hil- landale and Hillsboro Roads). All chess players are welcome. The Medical Center's Dietetics Intern ship Program graduated twelve women in September. Upon completion of the 12- month course, the dietitians earned mem bership in the America Dietetic Associ ation and were presented the accompany ing pin and certificate. The program, under direction of the Medical Center's Department of Dietetics, is designed to provide students with prac tical experience in patient care dietetics and food administration along with addi tional class work in these areas. All the graduates had previously received degrees in foods and nutrition or institutional management. Following a three-week orientation section, interns spent a total of 35 weeks training in several of Duke's patient care facilities-medical wards, surgical wards, infant, child and maternal health areas, research units and the outpatient depart ments. In addition, during the final twelve weeks of the course, each student assumed senior responsibility for one of the hospital's food services. Interns received instruction in tech niques of preparing food budgets, super vising personnel, ordering foods, planning food storage and organizing the serving systems. Graduates and their home towns in clude the following: Anita Kay Boatright, Rome, Ga.; Linda Danielson, Ft. Collins, Colo.; Reba Gail Howard, Carthage, Miss.; Lynn Ketcham, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Mary Kiser, Hono lulu, Hawaii; Cary W. Lipscomb, San Antonio, Tex.; Brenda Lee Marshall, Dan ville, Va.; Charlene Louise Ott, Hagers town, Md.; Dorothy Chapman Ready, Edgefield, S. C.; Margaret S. Rumbley, Greenville, N. C.; Elaine Waller, Kinston, N. C.; and Kathleen G. Westman, Grand Rapids, Mich. To Benefit Employes New Retirement Plan A change in the effective date of re tirement benefits for non-academic em ployes was made at a meeting of the Uni versity Executive Council this month. The normal retirement date still re mains as the June 30 following the em ploye's 65th birthday. The change, how ever, gives the employe to option to retire on his 65th birthday and to receive the normal retirement allowance without hav ing to wait until the June 30 following.
