In each of the first three
years the student submits an
essay on which his instructors
examine him. At the end Of
the senior year he submits a
thesis. and has to pass an oral

More than 80 witnesses are
scheduled to testify tomorrow
as week-long hearings open on
a bill to extend Federal health
insurance to all persons eligible
for social security checks.
The week of hearings before
the House Ways and Means
Committee will see two of the
Nations giants-the American
Medical Association and the
AFL-CIO-locked in a head-on
conflict over what to do for the
health of the Nations in
creasingly large number of
aged.
The legislation was intro
duced by Representative For
and, Democrat Of Rhode Island,
for the second time early this
year. Mr.. Forand said the legis-
lation would "avoid financial
disaster for many aged persons,
and that will also tighten public
welfare loads and hospital
deficits :"
The ANA, however, main
tainS that passage Of the
Forand bill would be the first
step toward socialized medi-
cine, such as exists in Great
Britain. The Forand bill, an
ANA statement charges "is
simply bad medicine. 1t is a
political approach to a health
problem developed by nom
medical people"
AMA's Views
Instead, the ANA says, pri-

should be given the chance to
do the job. The doctors group
feels that much progress has
been made in that some I'll
million people-or about 10 per
cent of the population-had

The ANA is on record as
feeling that not only would the
financial soundness of the So

sons would go to hospitals for
minor ailments that could be
otherwise treated.

the best in the league today,
and he's got a passer in Johnny

he gets open. But you can't
