STUDENTS AT ST.- HELEN’S
THEIR CONTINUANCE FAVOURED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. Whether senior medical students should be allowed to continue their observations in St. Helens maternity hospital was a matter discussed by a large meeting of Wellington women today, presided over by the Mayoress, Mrs. Troup. Dr. Agnes Bennett was the leading speaker in favour of a continuance of the practice, holding that the late Mr. Seddon, who instituted the St. Helens h spitals, would have been the first to recognise the altered conditions of today. 0 The scheme had been working satisfactorily for many years without a single complaint., Mrs. Hay, a daughter of the late Mr. Seddon, reiterated the argument that the admission of students was against the expressed wish of the founder. . * A motion in favour of the admission of students was carried by 105 votes to 35.
