Una .Lean Dr. Wilburt C. Davison may be described as the Compleat Educator, the Compleat Physi- cian, and the Compleat Dean. We know him as the bluff, hearty, barbecue-loving, six-footer, who always has time and interest to discuss our prob- lems and dreams. Except when traveling on official business, he is usually seated behind his desk in shirtsleeves and tieless. co-ordinating the Duke School of Medicine. Since his election to Dean on January Zl. 1927. he has never run the faculty or students. He is a chairman. not a boss. The Dean was born in Grand Rapids, Michi- gan in l892. He received his B.A. from Prince- ton in 1913, and then studied at Oxford Universi- ty, England as a Rhodes Scholar. It was therc that his friendship with Sir William Osler began. His medical education was completed at the Johns Hopkins where he later served as Assistant Dean. Dynamic. more than any other word, depicts the restless energy of the Dean. A close friend of his relates that Dave spent every night on the road . . . going to county medical society meet- ings, visiting hospitals, spreading public health measures and always preaching Duke. Where- ever two or three were gathered together, he was there. But the public's health as much as the success of Duke was important to him. He disseminated the practical applications of such simple things as putting lactic acid in milk to lower the bacteria content. The gregariousness of the Dean along with his love of a good short story or joke and the ability to combine the CONTENTS OF DEAN'S TRAVELING BAG I ffask of Brandy I ffask of Bourbon I ffask of Scotch I clefiated rubbw' sitting ring I steel l'0IlIllII16'I' with aspirin, cascara, sevwial, Cafjein and anliliistimilzc' clrugs I copy of ReacIer's Digest I copy of Omnihook The Compleat P6'lIIUfI'IC'IllI1 in 1'evisiw1 I SllI1lIll'IC'I1 Iclieesel ffm' Ivreakfaslj I thermos of Coffee I l'C'IIO!7IIllIl6 bag of dmculutes and arwlliw' of varied candy I bag of peanuts several sets of ear plugs I eye shade These tlCC0llllf6 lI for perhaps half of the coulents of the bag. What the rest of the bag contained I never discovered. ew. if VL.. practical with the theoretical enhancing the value of both, are but further ramifications of his drive. Of even greater significance was the Dean's role in comprehending the South's financial prob- lems and preparing an insurance plan which would cover the costs while staying within the limits of the average person to pay the premiums. A vital part of the program was the concept of part-pay. Blue Cross and similar organizations have been founded on the concepts first incorporated in the Dean's hospital insurance. In addition to planning, organizing, and di- recting the Medical School. he has held a host of public service offices, including vice chairmanship of the National Research Council's Division of Medical Sciences, a membership on the National Health Council, a consultant to the U. S. Army Surgeon General. a member of the executive com- mittee of the Association of American Medical Colleges, a member of the Executive Reserve in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense. and many others too numerous to mention. Yet he has had time to write over 200 scientific papers. He was co-author with Salman Waksman of one of the first books on enzymes. Of all his literary achievements, we shall remember best The Compleat Pediatricianf' which is now in its seventh edition. The basic core of the book was obtained from one of the Dean's pearl books of his medical school days. We feel it is an honor and privilege to be one of the 1,800 graduate physicians of the Dean's creation, the Duke School of Medicine. PAGE 17
