Clinical Practice To Student Nurses Students in the new Purdue University nursing program in Fort Wayne will obtain clinical practice at Lutheran and Parkview memorial hospitals, it was announced today. Students under the supervision of Purdue nursing faculty members will spend a specified number of hours in a hospital each week during the program which leads to an associate degree, according to Miss Dorothy Oechsler, chairman of the University’s Fort Wayne nursing section. It is likely that each student will gain experience in more than one hospital during the 22-month program covering two academic years and the intervening summer, she said. Other health agencies in the community may be added to the list of cooperating of cooperating institutions to provide other types of cinical experience. , . Arrangements with f the two hospitals were completed with the cooperation of Edgar Kruse, administrator at Lutheran, and by Mark Slen, administrator, and Miss Marie Kolter, director of nursing, at Parkview, who joined Miss Oechsler in making the announcement. The associate degree program in nursing was begun by Purdue last September on the Lafayette campus, and Fort Wayne was designated as the first community away from the main campus to be provided with the program. Originated at seven community colleges 12 years ago, the associate degree approach to nurses’ training has spread to 29 states, and now is in operation at more than 104 universities, colleges and junior colleges. The course work is divided evenly between traditional university courses and specific courses for nursing students. Academic courses include biology, chemistry, English composition, sociology, microbiology, nutrition, pharmacology, speech, psychology, and several electives. In the first semester students will take an introductory course in nursing requiring six hours per week in the hospital. In later semesters the hours of clinical experience increase to 12 and 18 per week as students study medi-cal-surgical, maternal and child care, and psychiatric nursing.

Laos Neutrals In Last-Ditch Stand To Reds VIENTIANE, Laos (UPD — Neutralist forces on the fringe of the Plain of Jars today were reported making a last-ditch stand against advancing Communists who blamed the United States for the new fighting in Laos. Neutralist Gen. Kong Le, who was forced to flee his headquarters at Muong Phanh to escape the Pathet Lao offensive, was reported rallying his troops six miles to the southwest at Ban Khong on the edge of the strategic plain. The plain is the gateway to all of Laos. The Pathet Lad’ offensive which gained control of the Plain of Jars since Saturday was reported to have left Mu, ong Phanh surrounded by Communists, its supply lines cut and under steady artillery bombardment. Intensifies Propaganda In an apparent effort to forestall military intervention by the Western powers, the °Pdthet Lao intensified a propaganda barrage aimed at justifying its attacks and preserving its battlefield gains in north-central Laos. Communist broadcasts by the *‘Voice of Laos” radio and retransmitted from Peking by the New China News Agency, portrayed the fighting as an internal revolt inside the Laotian neutralist faction, and not an attack by the Communists. The Communist radios said dissident neutralist troops ,jn Phok Lak Tay. Tha Thom.

Must Double Medic Students In State INDIANAPOLIS (UPI- — An independent survey team said in an interim report to Governor Welsh Tuesday that Indiana must double the number of medical students in the next .10 years to keep pace With the state’s needs. - Dr. H. Lawrence Wilsey, vice president of Booz, Allen & Hamilton, Chicago, the consulting firm making the study, said several alternatives now are being explored. These include: —Establishment of a second Indiana University Medical School in Bloomington, building on the special combined degree program now underway there. The state’s lone medical school is the IU center in Indianapolis. —Establish one or more IU two-year basic medical science schools in cities other than Indianapolis to feed into the IU medical center in Indianapolis. —Establish a second IU medical school in another city other than Indianapolis or Bloomington. —Locate a second four-year medical school in another university otHer than JU. The survey team said this should be one with “a strong graduate school.” The team found that although the IU Medical School is one of the largest of its type in the nation, fewer Indiana graduates are remaining in the state and that one reason for this exodus is the unattractive internship program. The team urged ,in the preliminary report that something be done to increase the present below-average standing. Indiana has “less than half the number of interns and residents for its population than the national average, a factor that makes it difficult to attract physicians to this state.” the report stated. The suryey team found also that 30 per cent of the openings for interns and residents in Indiana go unfilled and said “the quality of internships and residences must be improved.”
