LOCAL STUDENTS WIN HONORS" Four of Fire Successful Applicants for Pharmacy Licenses From Charleston Medical College. Oat of the five successful applicants in the examination held by the State Board of Pharmaceutical Examiners at Columbia yesterday, four were members of the senior pharmacy class at the Medical College of the State of South Carolina. The four were as follows: H. 0. Speed, J. L. Griffin, G. B. McDuffie and Clarence Oakman Jr. H. 0. Speed stood first among the applicants. The showing of the students is gratifying to the friends of the college. There were fifteen applicants for license to practice pharmacy, of whom only five passed the examination that they were subjected to. This will be the last year in which pharmaceutical applicants who are not graduates of reputable schools of pharmacy may go before the State board. A diploma from such an institution will be a prerequisite for examination by the State board, the statute to this effect having passed the Legislature at the last session.?
