Mrs. Bunting on Hospital Board

Mary I. Bunting, president of Radcliffe, has become the first woman elected to the boards of directors of Kaiser Foundation Hospitals and Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc., two non-profit corporations in Oakland, California.

Mrs. Bunting, along with three "prominent business leaders," including Art Link-letter, was elected to both boards last Thursday, Chairman Edgar F. Kaiser said.

The two foundations are part of a voluntary, self-sustaining medical care program which currently serves over two million persons, including 10 per cent of all Californians.

Mrs. Bunting has also served on the National Advisory Commission on Health Manpower (1966-67) and the President's Commission on the status of Women (1961-63).

Peace and Violence

Everett I. Mendelsohn, professor of the History of Science, will chair a discussion on "militancy and violence in the peace movement" at 8 p.m. tonight in the Eliot House Junior Common Room.

Among the panelists are Ruth Hubbard Wald, wife of George Wald, Higgins Professor of Biology: Michael Ferber, codefendant in the Spock trial and a former Harvard graduate student: and Barbara Ackermann, Cambridge city councillor.

Mendelsohn said, "We're trying to get people to confront honestly the problems of militancy and violence as they have crept into the peace movement in recent months, particularly with regard to the April 15 riot."
