Michael Ellis DeBakey. son of a Lebanese immigrant who had made good in Lake Charles, La., wanted to be a physician-specifically, a surgeon. Soon after graduation from Tulane University School of Medicine, interning at New Orleans' vast Charity Hospital, young Dr. DeBakey invented a pump that he hoped might some day relieve or replace the heart during delicate surgery. That was in 1932, and the inventive intern was about 20 years ahead of his time...

More important, the summer intern program, as a valuable learning experience for the student, would provide the most realistic--and therefore the most convincing--kind of publicity for a career in government...
...result of pressures applied in recent months by the A.A.G.P. and through the American Medical Association, hospitals report a 50% increase in operating G.P. departments since 1952; a dozen of the 81 medical schools in the country have set up special G.P. programs. The "preceptor" system, whereby an intern divides his time between a central hospital and on-the-job training with a G.P., has spread from 9 schools in 1950 to 22, now equips some 1,000 each year to be family doctors if they choose...
