The new principal of the Central Medical School, Suva (Dr. A. S. Prater), photographed with five of the seven students recently selected and sent to the school by the New Guinea Administration.

One of the lads developed TB, and was sent away for special treatment; and another has

been sent to another school for a year’s pre liminary educational training.

It was at first intended to send the TB sufferer back to Papua; but it now is believed that the disease has been arrested and that he may yet be able to undergo training in Suva as an NMP.
