Upon motion made and duly seconded the minutes of the Executive Committee meeting
held on Thursday, August 26th, 1971 were unanimously approved.
Mr. Phelps submitted the Operating Report for the month ending August 31, 1971.
Upon motion made and duly seconded, Dr. Lyndon Anthony 's resignation from the
Medical Staff was accepted with regrets. Dr. Anthony is moving out of the City.
Upon motion made and duly seconded, it was unanimously agreed to recommend Dr.
James G. Beurle, Oral Surgeon, and Dr. Paul D, Long, Orthopedic Surgeon, for staff
privileges.
Mr. Phelps reviewed the action taken by the Medical Board in recommending to the
Board of Trustees the suspension of Dr. John, Gray Hunter from the Medical Staff for a
period of sixty days, due to his violation of rules and regulations of the Operating
Room whereby an assistant surgeon must be used in "abdominal and pelvic cases in which
the peritoneum is opened, including hernia, excluding diagnostic colpotomy." (Section
G, Paragraph 3 of Rules and Regulations - Operating Suite, dated March 1, 1970.) Mr.
Phelps advised those present that Dr. Hunter appeared before the Medical Board to explain his reasons for violating the operating room rules and that reasons were given
by Dr. Hunter that he was unable to get an assistant in each incidence and that he
felt it medically necessary to procede with the operations at the time. All cases involved were appendectomies. The Executive Committee was very concerned with the repetitious violations by Dr. Hunter and upon motion made by Mr. Jeffress and seconded
by Mr. Ruffin, it was unanimously agreed to recommend that the Medical Board be requested, by the Board of Trustees, to take the following action:
1. Consider and determine whether the existing rules, practices and
regulations of the Medical Board and it 's various committees are
acceptable, proper and in accordance with approved hospital standards.
Such changes as are required should be effectuated promptly.
2. Determine whether the existing rules, practices and regulations are
being uniformally observed and enforced. If any rules, etc., are
not being observed, then appropriate corrective or disciplinary action
should be taken.

3. Report to the Board of Trustees the results taken on matters covered
by paragraphs 1 and 2.
Mr. Brooks moved for the Executive Committee to recommend to the Board of Trustees
that Dr. John Gray Hunter be suspended from the Staff for thirty days and that reinstatement be conditional upon his assurance to the Board that he honor our rules as
long as they are in existence. Mr. Thompson seconded the motion and it was unanimously
approved.
