Raleigh, N.C., Dec. 19—The special committee appointed last June to investigate the advisability of extending the medical course at the University of North Carolina from two to four years, and if so, whether the school should be located in Chapel Hill or elsewhere in the state, will make its report at a meeting of the board of trustees to be held in the senate chambers of the capitol Wednesday.
After the committee has submitted its report, the board will make its recommendations regarding the location of the school and submit them to the general assembly for approval, according to H.M. London, secretary.
Charlotte, Greensboro, Durham and Raleigh are among the cities that have asked for the location of the proposed school.
The city of Charlotte has offered the University the Presbyterian hospital of that city, said to be valued at $500,000, for the use of the medical school should it be decided to extend the course. The city and county agree to appropriate a maintenance fund of $50,000 annually for the hospital if the medical school is located in Charlotte, it was stated.
Members of the special committee who will make their report are: Dr. H.W. Chase, president of the University; Dr. I.H. Manning, dean of the medical school; Dr. W.B. McNider of the medical faculty; J.L. Delaney and E.W. Pharr of Charlotte; H.P. Grier of Statesville; and W.N. Everett of Raleigh. The last four committeemen were named by Governor Morrison, president officio of the board.
