COLLEGE OF SURGEONS
p.A. DUNEDIN, Thursday. At the opening of the annual conference of the New Zealand section of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in Dunedin to-day the chairman of the section, Mr. F. Gordon Bell, who is also a vicepresident of the college, said the attendance of more than 50 members from all parts of the Dominion was testimony to the useful function which the college exercised and to the desire of fellows to further their knowledge by observation and discussion.
The business of the conference to-day included operations, papers on the use of penicillin in civil and war surgery, and a symposium on a relatively new disease of the spine and spinal nerves. In the evening, the board of censors met to examine five candidates for admission to fellowship. . ■
