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. Change in SL Form Might Be inOffing (Continued from Page 1) 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. * * * * * * s « * * * A Day with the Legislature "WHAT'S ON THE AGENDA?"
