Dr. Ellen
Lovely Ellen Paige met a host of violent reactions every time she reaffirmed her intentions of being a doctor. It's- well, it's so unfeminine- her sister, Joyce, said.
It's hard for a man; it's even harder for a woman- kindly Dr. Seth warned.
I want a doctor- one with pants on, complained one injured patient.
No woman should be a doctor- and you, least of all- handsome Tim Flagg, fellow student, commented.
The old prejudice against woman physicians was still very much alive, but Ellen waged her battle staunchly, determined to be a doctor as well as a woman- and to be accepted as both.
