On back: "FOR RELEASE SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1956 (rel) - STANFORD UNIVERSITY - Stanford's ancient Medical School building in San Francisco, built in 1882, appeared doomed today following the announcement of a $21,950,000 campaign to develop a new Stanford Medical Center on the University's campus at Palo Alto. Former President Herbert Hoover made the announcement, and will serve as honorary chairman of the fund drive. Its general chairman is W. P. Fuller III, San Francisco civic and business leader. Stanford Hospital and other research facilities located in San Francisco will be renovated under the new program, but Stanford School of Medicine will be consolidated in the new Medical Center on the Palo Alto campus. Construction of the first unit will begin this fall, and target date for completion of the Stanford Medical Center is March, 1959."
