NOMINATING
COMMITTEE REPORT
Member Maynard Munger, chairman of the nominating committee,
read the following report:
The Fresno Community Hospital
Nominating Committee meeting
was called to order by Chairman
Maynard Munger at 12:45 p. m.,
October 2, 1964.
Committee members present were
Melville E. Willson, William N.
Knudsen, M.D., F. L. R. Burks, M.
D., and J. E. Rodman. Also present
were Leon S. Peters, president of
the board of trustees and ex officio
member of the committee, and Clifton H. Linville, administrator, who
acted as secretary.
Chairman Munger reviewed the operation of the hospital the past year
and the committee's responsibility
to consider the terms of Wm. L.
Adams, Jr., M.D., Milo E. Rowell,
R. O. McMahan, and T. P. Shelton,
which expire at the 1964 annual
meeting.
The members of the committee discussed the comments of Wm. L.
Adams, Jr., M.D., which were made
at the last board of trustees meeting. In essence, his comments were
to the effect that he believed it
would be desirable, for the total
good of the hospital, to have as
many members of the medical staff
as possible experience membership
on the board of trustees in order to
create a broader base of understanding for the total operation of
the hospital. Dr. Adams stated he
would encourage such action on the
part of the nominating committee if
they saw fit to follow his suggestion
and place a doctor other than him
as a member of the board.
In view of Dr. Adams' suggestion,
and at the same time mindful of
their responsibility in providing individuals of leadership as members
of the board, motion was made by
F. L. R. Burks, M.D., that William
N. Knudsen, M.D., a past president
of the hospital medical staff, be
placed in nomination for the expiring term of Dr. Adams. This motion
was seconded by Member Rodman
and upon question approved by the
committee, with Dr. Knudsen not
voting.
It was noted that Trustee Rowell
had been a member of the board
only since June, 1962, and that it
would be to the detriment of the
hospital if he were not re-nominated. Accordingly, motion was made
by Member Rodman, seconded by
Member Willson and unanimously
approved, nomnating Milo E. Rowell for a four-year term.
F. L. R. Burks, M.D., noted that it
was to the continuing benefit of
the hospital to have an individual
