demanded a more prepared student to evaluate correctly the trends and scope of medical thought. With the warm lnaclving ot Colonel Payne, the faculty in 1908 decided that candidates for admission must he: l. Graduates of approved colleges or scientilic schools. ll. Seniors in good standing at college who would receive a laachelorvs degree upon satisfactory completion of their lirst year at Cornell Medical College. 111. Persons who without a laachelons degree give evidence lay examination that they have acquired an equivalent education and training sumcient to proltit lay instruction offered in the medical college. This was indeed a forward step. Many people must have been astonished at the temerity of this little lanown college demanding requirements which were aslced only lay two other medical schools in the land. The step was not without repercussion. Only three memlners were admitted to the Freshman class the next year. The trio was later joined hy nine from lthaca, and this l9I2 class numlnered twelve upon graduation. Even- tually the policy was successful. with standards laeing raised, and hy 1920 it became necessary to limit memhership in each class. The death of Colonel Payne in 1927 withdrew from the College one of its most trusted advisors, and its greatest henefactor. Yet, even with his demise, Colonel Payne was ahle to further the future of the College. His will furnished limds which would he used to form a new type of medical institution where education, research, and therapy were conducted in close alliance. Three hospitals were to join their services with the medical college, and a fully endowed institution was to he erected. The New Yorlc Hospital, the Lying-ln Hospital, and the Manhattan Maternity Hospital joined forces with the Cornell University Medical College. The New Yorlc Hospital received its charter from George 111 in 1771. Samuel Bard was numluered amongst its founders and its mission was to provide for the good of the more and less fortunate. Since its founding the hospital has talaen a prominent part in matters Medical, and has lneen interested in medical education. During its early days, there was no other source of medical education. lt was in 1898 that the hospital hrst made its facilities availalale to the hospital. The union of the New Yorlc Hospital and the Medical College was the culmination of this very satisfactory relationship. .The twenty-tour storied medical center was opened on Friday September 2, 1032. lt had been designed for ua century of aid to rich and poor. The First day, the hospital admitted 19 patients. The Medical College has now almost reached the hall?-century marla. lts men today are still steadfastly determined to follow the lead of those who established the Medical College, holding always to the forefront the thought that there shall always he Better Methods of Medical Educationu Gnorzois COLEMAN -1 I
