C; Clockwise: McKenneth Rivers, Charleston S. C; Jerome Davis, Chicago, III.; Ronald Reid, Charlotte,; Robert Gaston, Greenville, S. C. and Derrick Maynor, Chicago, III.,,,, NEW YORK - Medical schools in the United States "are not adequately respond ing to need for more black physicians" Dr. Louis M. Sullivan, Dean of The School of Medicine at More house College said recently. "Presently in the United States, there is one white physician for every 650 whites but one black physician for every 4,100 blacks," Sullivan said in a speech to. the New York Medical Group, an or ganization of medical execu tives. Sullivan, who became head of the medical program at the predominantly black Atlanta college in 1975, said the per centage of blacks in the first year classes of American medi i cal schools has dropped. The former professor of medicine at Boston University said blacks comprised 7.2 per cent of all first-year medical students in September, 1974. "Since then, the percentage of blacks entering medical classes has decreased to 6J& peT cent . . . Sullivan said. The School of Medicine at Morehouse College will be a two-year medical school with an initial - class of 32 students slated for entry in the fall of 1978. Plans call for the school to evolve into a degree-granting, four-year institution which would make it the first medi cal school begun at a predomi nantly black institution in this century and the third black medical school in the country. The other black medical schools are Howard University Medical School, founded in 1 868 in Washington, D. C, and the Meharry Medical College, founded in 1876 in Nashville, Tennessee.

I-. , h-w i MjerroneouavicsmuMJjwu- The American Cancer NO TRKAiMUNi Society has begun a pilot test ing program that could pre vent many thousands of deaths a year In the USA. The test, designed to detect blood in solid body wastes - an early sign of cancers of the rectum and colon, is being made avail able free in the Washington, DC area to all persons over 21. The testing processes can be conducted entirely by mail, cancer society spokesman said. Residents of Washington, D. C. - the site of the pilot testing program can use a letter-sized testing kit with sealed paper "slides" to mail in samples of excretion for examination. The kits are available to local hospitals and clinics or may be request ed by mail. If the pilot project in Washington is successful, it TREATMENT FOR IMPACTED TEETH: BEST SOME The best treatment for some impacted wisdom teeth may be no treatment, a dental surgeon reported recently to the American Dental Associa tion. But benefits and dis advantages must be weighed in each case, Dr. John Lytle of the University of Southern California School of Dentistry told his colleagues. Lytle, a dentist and phy sician, said patients benefitt ing from removal of impacted third molars are seen every day in dental offices. Their retained embedded teeth must be removed to restore oral health. "Frequently these teeth hnvn heen oresent for many will be repeated in other cities, years, and physiologic changes Traces ot oiooa too smau have occurea wmcn greauy to be visible in human waste can indicate Illnesses other than cancer, but they indicate that cancer may be present and further testing is needed, Dr. La Salle D. Leffall, national chairman of the effort said. Cancer of the rectum and colon (large intestine) is "the single most common internal cancer (of both sexes) in the country," Dr. Leffall stated. Only breast cancer is more emmon among women and lung cancer among men, he continued. The U. S. Postal Service has approved the mailing of waste samples. The test was described by Dr. Leffall as "simple, inexpensive, estheti- complicate the required sur gery," he said. Oldtime den tists were taught that em bedded teeth should be left alone until they cause trouble. Dr. Lytle said impacted teeth should not bbe removed - when the surgical extrac tion will damage adjoining teeth or soft tissue and un derlying bony structures. -When a patient's general phy sical condition makes it diffi cult or impossible to with- !and the stress of surgical rocedures - When the tooth ppears completely fused to the bone in an elderly person with no history of symptoms related, to the unerupted . tooth.
