SYDNEY, Jan. 8
Dr. Chisholm Ross has been appointed consulting psychiatrist at the reception house. Mr. Justice Davidson scathingly criticised evidence given by Dr. Ross in the Massey will case, and the doctor, who was then chief medical officer at the reception house, asked to be relieved of his duties.
Subsequently the Medical Board held an inquiry into the conduct of Dr. Ross and a charge of unprofessional conduct against him was dismissed.
