Saturday, February 15, 1969 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Page 3 Lucas By CHARLA HABER DTH Staff Writer "Health care in the U.S. is absolutely horrible,1' says Clement Lucas, a fourth year UNC medical student and president of the national Student American Medical Association (SAMA). Clement blamed the poor condition on the relevance of existing graduate medical programs in a speech addressed to the Association for Hospital Medical Education in Chicago last week. As an alternative to the present system, Clement proposed shortening by two to three years the time required to prepare a physician to care for patients. "A graduate medical program . . . should develop the sensitive, educated physician who has compassion and believes in justice while Luxurious-. arohna NOW PLAYING Based on the Pulitzer Prize -winning novel by Bernard Malamud. rm CL5 Met.ocolo, 'toiins Alan Bates Dirk Bogarde, Hush Griffith, Ian Holm, David Warner, Shows: 2-4:15-6:30-8:45 n t fee a 3 DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS I.

"Our present system does nothing comparable to this," continued Lucas. "It is a rigid, inflexible system that develops a technician and forgets about the behavioral and social aspects of medicine. "This antiquated, nineteen hundred system we are using to train the new physician is primarily the cause of the crisis that exists in our health care today." Locas cited the results of a recent, survey by the U.S. Public Health Service which "evoked the specters of Kwashiokor, Marasmus, Scurvy, Rickets, and other diseases previously associated with the dust bowl of 1930, or of Biafra," according to Dr. Arnold Schaefer of the Health Service. "These results are similar to and in some cases worse than the nutrition surveys of developing countries around the world," concluded Schaefer. Lucas emphasized that he does "not question the dedication, the long hours, the fortitude and the intellect of Wo Are 0p6a ! 7DAVS per week . ti3 tan. H 11:30 pja.

J He does, however, "strongly question a system that produces men who go into research because they can't or will not treat the people of our society ... a system that has been oriented to almost pure research and no practice since the massive infusion of billions of dollars of federal aid into research and development."

"Graduate medical education must become futuristic in its outlook and imaginative in its progression," continued Lucas, He proposed abandonment of an internship and subsequent "peonage" in deference to "a continum of medical education with an opportunity to develop not only the necessary scientific acumen to treat his patient, but a chance to relate effectively to "!3T 1 1 : the important decisions facing him in a situation free of rush restrictions."

The statement passed by the IFC reads, "The IFC encourages all eligible males to participate in rush."

The whole educational system has to be looked at." Taylor explained that students are coming to college with a better secondary education in the sciences and that "we must look at the whole spectrum from secondary school to post graduate education." According to Taylor, the UNC Medical School has been engaged in an extensive curriculum review for the last three years. As a result, a fourth vear medical student is College Discontinued But Reform Goes On (Continued from page 1) He outlined the proposal which would offer three "tracks." The first would be for those who are not sure of a specialty area; who are not yet "turned on to any thing in particular." It would closely resemble the distribution requirements of the current general college, but would be more "liberal." The second track would be "freer, in that student groups could design their own courses and students could arrange independent study. They would be freed from the distribution requirements." These students could map a more open academic program with the aid of a faculty advisor. The third track would be an Honors program. Thompson stressed that "this is just an idea but because of the possibility of its becoming first a formal proposal and then an actuality, students shouldn't be disappointed that the E.C. is gone. They should lobby for this proposaL" "Thompson estimated that in its four semesters of operation, the Experimental College had 85 faculty or graduate student instructors and 90 undergraduate instructors." ..:.. ......

"Some E.C. initiated courses are now part of the regular curriculum like Poll Sci. 95 (Urban Policy and Politics) and an English course on Fauikner." The co-ordinating committee chairman also pointed out that "experimental colleges and free universities around the country characteristically flourish for three or four semesters and then are either incorporated as accredited programs or fold."
