REPLY BY DEAN
Need For New Departments (N.Z. Press Association) DUNEDIN, March 11. The sooner the medical library and the biochemical department were made available, the sooner more medical students could be taken, the dean of the Otago Medical School (Professor W. E. Adams) said tonight. Professor Adams was replying to criticism reported from Auckland about the system of choosing new entrants to the Otago Medical School. “The information that the report gave is incorrect,” he said. “We don’t take the first 120 and draw a line. We have liberalised the entry. “Those chosen are chosen on order of merit, and 120 is the optimum number that we can accommodate.”
