Durward G. Hall

Durward Gorham Hall (September 14, 1910 – March 15, 2001) was a six-term US representative from Missouri's 7th congressional district.

During his years in the United States Congress, Dr. Hall's critics referred to him as "Dr. No" because of his tendency to vote no on spending bills.

[3] Dr. Hall decided to retire from elected politics and was not a candidate for reelection to the 93rd United States Congress in 1972.

Gene Taylor, also a Republican, replaced Dr. Hall as the congressman from the 7th District.

He was also the co-founder and a member of board of trustees of the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland, from 1973 to 1981.
