Schweitzer and the New Africa
In 1958 FREDERICK S. FRANCKset up a dental clinic in the hospital of Dr. Schweitzer in Lambaréné. Equatorial Africa. He went as an artist and dentist, and having found that there were hardly any dentists on the continent, he returned in 1959 and 1960 to give short courses on dental emergencies in Ghana, the Congo, the Gabon Republic, Ethiopia, and the Sudan, as well as at Lambaréné. This article and the drawing for the headpiece are from his AFRICAN SKETCHBOOK, to be published try Holt, Rinehart & Winston.
