A single room, for example cost $27 a day including room, board and private bath in addition to all hospital services such as lab tests. X-rays, use of operating and delivery rooms and drugs. The facility housed only 78 beds, with 229 employees, 92 faculty members and 48 interns. In contrast, a single room today costs $205 a day without the extras. There are 630 beds with 3,300 em ployees, Stokes said. The UNC School of Medicine has existed since 1879 but the need for a teaching and a state referral hospital and for the school prompted the state's funding of NCMH in 1952, said John Becton of NCMH Public Affairs. "The state wanted to expand the medical school here from a two-year program to a four-year school," Bec ton said. "To establish a four-year program, you need a good hospital. The state made the decision to build a teaching and referral hospital to en hance the medical school as well as im prove the general health conditions in North Carolina." Becton said a nationwide survey completed sometime after World War II showed that the general health of the typical North Carolinian was poor. As a result, the state im plemented the "Good Health Pro gram" to relieve the shortage of doc tors and hospitals. NCMH was found ed to achieve this goal, Becton said. ACTUALLY.

The work, like a few others, has become so familiar that by now everyone has his own ideal version, playing along in that inner concert hall where no note can ever go awry (von Karajan must be conducting). Most people will hear this imagined version in any per formance. But if an indifferent performance pleases, a good one thrills, and Gerhardt Zimmermann and the North Carolina Symphony gave , a good performance Wednesday night in Memorial Auditorium., The Ninth is difficult to conduct, re quiring a large orchestra, four soloists and a big choir. And the more performers, the more things can go ; wrong; Just 'gating everything balanced and cued in at the right time is a headache. But Zimmermann, whose affinity for Mahler and Strauss equips him perfectly for such tasks, "handled the details with aplomb. Doubts Feature LATE SHOW . Frl. & Sat. 11:30 The- dad wCl wz!k th EARTH!

Kit rMHT-irTi-iir -Yf-i-irrnn , nn eievision Critic discusses By MONT ROGERS Siaff Writer Television has become a major cultural force in American society. More than $10 billion . has been invested by Americans in TV sets alone. But in past few years various groups have questioned the quali ty of network television. Their tactics have included boycotting certain shows and creating negative publicity for shows which they regard as bad. Television critic Dr. Robert Schrag, media analyst and assistant professor of .speech communications at North Carolina State University, has taken a more positive approach to television criticism. In a speech sponsored by the UNC speech department Wednesday, Dr. Schrag introduced his methodology for TV program analysis. "There are good things on commercial TV. There is as much quality program ming as on PBS, and more than in the movies," he said. "We are suspicious about commercial TV because there is more garbage, more junk but there is a lot of good stuff as well. "I've always felt that TV critics have no clothes, they have no 'methodo logy,' " Schrag said. With this in mind, Schrag formulated a new approach to TV criticism based not on "counting the stabbings," or how bad the program is, but based on the relative merits of the program according to a theory called Fantasy Beam Analysis. Schrag's Beam analysis, focused on how much the program reflects society's values and beliefs about how people in perforins Control and discipline marked the entire performance, and the orchestra sounded unusually well-rehearsed. Tempo choice was appropriate throughout, especially in the Adagio, which must be played very slowly but not be allowed to slacken musically. Zimmermann's tight control of phrasing kept the long, slow melodic lines taut and vitaL The string playing sounded rich and polished, most noticeably in the low strings. The violins played crisply, even in the tricky second movement. Entrances were sharp, and the sound thick with vibrato But Zimmermann did more than just direct traffic. His conducting showed warmth and good humor, over and above technical polish. This symphony is filled with large gestures, like the thundering timpani in the second movement and the repeated anticlimaxes of the last move ment. Zimmermann made the most of T them, letting the tunpam hammer away fortississimo and exaggerating the dramatic pause before the bassoon drolly heralds a march-like parody of the last movement's main theme. The singing was at least adequate in all respects, and occasionally very good. The choir, made up of the Durham Civic Choral Society and UNCs Carolina Choir, sang clearly and more or less in tune.

The shows that Schrag regards as the best based on this method of analysis are MASH, Lou Grant, Taxi and Barney Miller. "These programs share human awareness of the group and the person," Schrag said. An extension of Schrag's theory md an important quality to be considered in pro gramming for the youth is found in The White Shadow and Fame, "Adults (in the shows first mentioned) have already had an established system of values and beliefs, but the White Shadow confronts new values as they evolve," Schrag said. Schrag's next step of research, after de veloping this method of criticism, is de termining how much the programs people watch reflect their basic values. "Are those reflections of our vision of the world, or do they shape our vision of the world," he said. "Critics must create an audience," Schrag said, commenting on the respon sibility of critics to improve the awareness of. the television audience. "We grow up assuming people know how to use televi sion, but we find they use it for the least constructive function, to wash the mind." Schrag said the critic's job is to create a better audience, but he emphasized the role that the educated, artistically sophis ticated person should play in refonning television. "The sophisticated audience comes to the TV more critical, and becomes an im portant input factor in creating a better audience," Schrag said. Carringer, tenor and Samuel Timberiake, baritone, sang with balance and expres sion. Timberiake deserves special praise for projection and dramatic style, but not for singing in German with an Alabama accent. The program opened with an uneven rendition of the Beethoven Violin Con certo in D. Soloist Richard Luby, a pro fessor of violin at UNC, sounded shaky from the start, playing with an insecure sound, a tremulous and tense vibrato and occasional problems with pitch. In addition, Luby unfortunately skated over several long passages without much interest or insight. This concerto provides little in the way of purely technical acrobatics, and the interpreter must ad dress the music, or fail to please. Parts of, the first movement will sound like just so many scales and arpeggios unless the per former makes the subtle decisions' about emphasis and phrasing that separate mak-' ing music from just playing the notes. , Things did pick up a bit in the last movement, which Luby played with a bounce and energy that helped make up for other problems with the performance. But nothing could spoil the evening's primary revelation: Gerhardt Zimmer mann, in his short tenure, has already gone a long way toward molding the North Carolina Symphony into a respecta ble, professional-sounding orchestra.
