The newspaper said it would be

The editorial said Mayor Jim

Texas A&M’s medical school dif
fers from traditional programs in
that students may be accepted and
begin their medical studies prior to
receiving their undergraduate de
grees. Students will follow a pre-
clinical curriculum during what
would normally be their junior and
senior years on the main Texas
A&M campus and then continue
with the clinical phases of their med
ical education for two years at loca
tions away from College Station, in
cluding Scott and White in Temple
and VA hospitals in Temple, Waco
and Marlin.
Dr. Stone, who was reared in
New York City, earned his A.B. de
gree at Brooklyn College in 1942
and M.D. at State University of
New York College of Medicne
(Brooklyn) in 1950 after World War
II service as a Navy ensign. His in
ternship and assistant residency
were at Presbyterian Hospital in
New York from 1950 until 1952, dur
ing which time he also served for a
period as an instructor at Columbia
University College of Physicians and
Surgeons.
His many honors include selec
tion in 1974 as a “Distinguished
Service Member’’ of the Association
of American Medical Colleges. He
served as visiting professor at the
Sloan School of Management at
Massachusetts Institute of Technol
ogy in 1972-73 and was managing
editor of “Trauma,” medio-Iegal
journal from 1963 until 1970. He
served as chief of research in pathol
ogy in 1959-60 for the Atomic Bomb
Casualty Commission in Hiroshima,
Japan.
tective at the police station, said the
Times Herald should try to solve
Dallas’ problems.
“Believe me, they have their
share of problems, he said. “We
really don’t need help from the Dal
las Times Herald. We will answer to
the newspapers in Houston.”
Houston newspapers have made
no similar demands editorially.
“Nobody can question that we are
dealing with our problems. To ad
vocate a commission is to advocate a
witch hunt, not fact finding. I be
lieve that we can handle it quite
well,” Caldwell said.
