Bath Memorial Hospital Renamed After Community Support
At a special meeting of Bath corporators the institution formerly known as Bath City Hospital was renamed Bath Memorial Hospital to reflect community generosity. President L Eugene Thebeau explained the removal of the word City to reduce misperceptions of it as a municipal institute. The change followed historical remarks on the hospital since its 1907 incorporation and a move by William S. Newell, seconded by Je H. Hyde, carried unanimously along with increasing vice presidents from one to two.
