Description
The Tau Kappa Chapter of the Phi Chi Medical Fraternity was founded May 17, 1935 at Wake Forest College in Wake Forest, North Carolina. The early history was greatly influenced by Dr. Thurman Kitchin, President of Wake Forest College. When the chapter moved to Winston-Salem it only had six members, but grew very steadily. This 1945 photo shows three of the original Phi Chi members sitting in front of the old "Lumpkin" House located at 2009 Queen Street. All are 1945 Bowman Gray School of Medicine graduates. Starting from Top (L-R) J. Donald Bradsher, Roy A. Hare, Leroy B. Holt, original member David Taylor, John M. Cheek, George C. Gibson, and original members William L. Wood, and D. E. Ward.
