'U' Medics Say Unethical
Physicians in Minority
By HELENE SIMON
Commenting on the blast at dis-
:nest practices of doctors made
y Dr. Paul Hawley, director of
e American College of Surgeons,
niversity medical men agreed
at the offenders are clearly in
le minority.

The Budapest String Quartet

r Music Festival at 8:30 p.m.

The first program in the Festi-

uartet No. 8 (1950)" and Beeth-
'an's "String Quartet in A minor,

iist Joseph Roisman, viola play-
Boris Kroyt, the new second
olinist, Jac Gorodetzky, all na-
res of Odessa, Russia, and violon:.
hloist Mischa Schneider from
Ina in northwestern Russia.
Because of its name, most peo-
e assume that the Quartet con-
ts of Hungarian musicians. In
ct, so persistent is this notion
.at frequently some Hungarian
thusiast addresses them in their
iative tongue" which the musi-
ans acknowledge with nods of
eir heads. ,
They are Russians by birth, and
e now all American citizens.
oceover, not one comes from
idapest.
:hurch Services
More than seven Ann Arbor
lurches will mark the beginning
Lent with special services for
sh Wednesday, today.
Dr. Hawley charged a small
number of his colleagues with
such unethical practices as fee-
splitting, exorbitant charges, un-
necessary surgery and the use of
"ghost doctors."
* , *
STATING THAT most of the
malpractices occur in large cities
rather than small towns, Dr. Wil-
liam M. Brace, senior physician for
men at Health Service, believes
that there is less medical cheating
than formerly.
"Many cases of unnecessary
surgeryused to appear because
of ignorance but now the main
cause is dishonesty," he added.
Dr. Hawley explained that a
"ghost" surgeon, is "some young
doctor starving to death" who op-
erates for a better known col-
league.
"I have heard about ghost doc-
tors in Europe, but have come
across no cases in this country,"
Dr. Brace said.
"Disturbed over patient's infre-
uent complaints, the medical so-
ciety is trying to correct these
abuses," Dr. Warren E. Forsythe,
director of Health Service, said.
According to Dr. Forsythe, med-
ical societies in several counties
and states have organized ethics
committees to investigate com-
plaints. The Washtenaw Medical
Society hanidles all local cases of
medical dishonesty.
Talk on Mass
MediaSlated
The fifth lecture of the School
of Journalism, "What Are the Mass
Media For?" will be given by Prof.
Fred S. Siebert of the University
of Illinois at 3 p.m. today in the
Rackham Amphitheater.
Following the talk there will be
an informal coffee hour and dis-
cussion in Rm. 1443 Mason Hall.
The public is invited to both
events.
SL Agenda
Student Legislature will dis-
cuss the following reports and
motions when the group meets
at 7:30 p.m. today in Strauss
Dining Rm., East Quadrangle:
Announcement of vacancy.
Speech by Phil Nielson, Grad.
on the University of Free Ber-
lin.
Motion to establish a Better
Business Board.
Student Affairs Committee
report.
Motion to ask SAC to in-
clude more students on its com-
mittees.
Committee reports.
SL invites all interested fa-
culty members and students to
attend.

recognized as central governing
authority.
Legislature leaders have made
an idealistic argument on this
basis, pointing out that a demo-
cratic student community must be
democratic in its organization and
methodology.
* * *
CONSIDERING the conviction
of both schools of thought on Uni-
versity student government, how-
ever, it might be entirely possible
for a stalemate to develop with
neither side yielding on its stand.
Although leaders recognize the
weaknesses of the present situa-
tion, they could (find ,so many
disadvantages in any drastic
change that no solution would
be reached.
The suggested change to limited
organizational representation on
SL could be forced by a referen-
dum in the next all-campus elec-
tion.
In this event, it would not be
surprising to see a battle shape
up much like the fight over the
form of student government in the
1946 elections which resulted in
SL's birth.
