The series of lectures which the Union has been conducting to give undergraduates information about the various vocations to aid them in their choice of a career, will be completed with talks tonight and tomorrow night by Dr. W. S. Thayer '85 and President Lowell. Both of these lectures, which are open to all members of the University, will be held in the Living Room of the Union.
Dr. Thayer, who will speak tonight at 8 o'clock, will take for his subject, "Medicine and Surgery as a Career". Since his graduation from the University Medical School in 1889, Dr. Thayer has had a varied and successful career as a physician, and is now physician-in-chief of Johns Hopkins Hospital, as well as a professor of medicine in Johns Hopkins University. During the war Dr. Thayer was at first a major and department commander in the American Red Cross Division in Russia, becoming later a brigadier-general in the Medical Corps, U. S. A., and chief consultant of the medical services of the American forces in France. He was decorated with the Distinguished Service Medal and the distinction badge of the Red Cross of Russia.
Tomorrow morning and afternoon five men will hold conferences in the Quiet Room of the Union with undergraduates who are especially interested in the medical profession. Students who desire interviews may secure them by signing up in the blue book which has been placed on the desk in the Main Reading Room of Widener Library.
