This newspaper article introduces Dr. Marion Powell as the new Medical Officer of Health for Scarborough.

The first part of the article reads: “A moral conservative, she’s become, somewhat unwillingly, the liberal spokesman of Scarboro on sex … so much so that it’s about the only subject she’s ever asked to talk on. But she has other views. Different health problems can no longer be divorced from one another, she says.”
