Dr. Isao Hirata, the new student
health director, is trying to combat
various problems in an effort to
improve the Student Health Service
before a scheduled November
opening.
Saying that "it's been a poor
health service for students." Dr
Hirata said that money was a
major problem in revamping the
health service. He would like to

hire five full-time physicians,
including one psychiatrically
oriented physician and one
gynecologist, but that it is difficult
to compete with the high salaries
specialists command.
"In the last six months the
salary raise has been sufficient to
attract physicians," he said, "but
it is still not enough." At present,
there is one full-time doctor, who is
leaving next week, and one parttime
doctor who will be leaving in
two months. He said also that
doctors from F^ort Jackson

with local physicians were not well
established. Dr. Hirata said he
hoped to be able to establish a setup
somewhat similar to Yale's,
thus allowing students to visit local
doctors free of charge, with the
university paying the doctor a
small salary.
As far as psychiatric service, Dr.
Hirata hopes that a team approach
with the Counseling Services be
developed. "The Counseling

between s/
and the int
Service is excellent," he said,
adding that a psychiatrist is
needed to cope with student
problems. "He must be a doctor
interested in kids and their
problems."
A major plan is a Health
Education Program which Dr.
Hirata says is necessary for the
student's well-being. He cited
venereal disease as an example.
"VD is a big problem on all
campuses and there's no reason
for it. It requires knowledge on the
student's part."
Dr. Hirata said that he could not
establish policy on contraception,
saying that it is silly for a health
center to say that it will or will not

said the Jews' refusal to vacate
