'It's simply regular- jizing the various special pro- grams some schools have been following for years." Explaining the background of the decision to '"'stream" sec- ondary pupils into academic, vocational and Commercial courses, Mr. Rendall said the decision came as a result of the "disturbing" number of drop- outs among high school pupils and the increasing demands of industry and commerce for trained workers Assistant Superintendent E.

One question posed at the hearing was whether Canadian medical schools place too much emphasis on. the training of specialists, at the expense of general practitioners. Chief Justice Hall said Mani- toba general practitioners com- plained at commission hearings in Winnipeg "that the GP is the forgotten man in medical educa tion." He asked for comment from the Royal College Dr. Lennox Bell of Winnipeg the college's immediate past president in medicine, replied that the job of medical schools is to produce 'undifferentiated well-trained young men without bias in any direction." Dr. Brown said that medical instructors provide good courses in both general practice and the specialties.
