GREENSBORO ACADEMY OF MEDICINE
January 28, 1971
The Greensboro Academy of Medicine met in the second floor ballroom
of the Hilton Inn. The meeting was called to order at 7:25 P.M. by
the President, Dr.Robert Phillips.
The first order of business was the reading of the minutes from the
October meeting and the presentation of the treasurer's report by Dr.
Howard Wainer.
This was followed by a report by Dr. Robert Whitener for the committee
on the Task Force for Drugs. Dr. Whitener gave a detailed report which
includes the availability of private consultation with the drug problem.
Also, his group plans to ask the State Legislature for funds to be used
by the counties for rehabilitation. Associated with the group are other
groups such as the Drug Action Council (funded by the United Community
Services), the Tate Street Switchboard, Outrage (an organization run by
the ministry), two rehabilitation houses run by a minister, the Mental
Health Center, and the Drug and Alcohol Abuse Committee. Dr. Whitener
announced a program on Channel 4 television on Monday nights from eight
to nine on four consecutive weeks.
Dr. Whitener's presentation ended with his presenting a motion that the
Greensboro Academy of Medicine contribute one hundred dollars ($100) to
the Drug Action Council to buy literature. This literature is to be
handed out free to visitors to the Drug Action Council. The motion was
passed without any dissent.
Dr. Richard Kelly gave a report for the Advisory Committee of the Mental
Health Clinic. Progress toward the taking over of 27 beds at L.Richardson
Memorial Hospital for mental patients has been reported.
Dr. Jim Bruce reported on the Symposium which is set for the 25th of March.
This series of events will include this year the Herman Cone Lecture, the
evening of the 24th of March. Dr. Robert Finch has become unavailable
for the Herman Cone Lecture and the Committee is presently trying to get
Dr. George Birch to do this lecture. The symposium itself will feature a
panel discussion on "The Delivery of Health Care" with Dr. William Herring
as moderator and which is to include Dr. Birch.
Dr. Robert Phillips then gave his thanks to Dr. Adrian Rubin, outgoing
program chairman, Dr. Howard Wainer, outgoing secretary-treasurer, Dr.
Ernest Spangler, membership chairman, Dr. Benjamin Vatz for his liason
work with the Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Joseph LeBauer for the 1970 Symposium,
Dr. Marshall Morris for the sports injury Symposium, Dr. Julian Barker for
the picnic in August, the OB-GYN men who did the forum on abortions in
September, Dr. Van Gunter for his continuing work on the Symposium, and
Dr. Donald Cone, the incoming secretary-treasurer.
