Luncheon reception held at Austin Hospital, Heidelberg to open appeal for the Stage 2 Building Appeal.
The July 1973 appeal's target was $500,000, which with government subsidies aimed to pay for a nine-story building alongside stage one - a combined ten-storey teaching, research and medical centre.

The hospital conducted a door knock appeal in the Heidelberg and Eltham districts on Sunday July 22.
