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.?
