MENTAL HEALTH TALK
AT SITKA WOMAN’S CLUB
In h!is talk to the Sitka Wo
man’s Cluib Friday evening. Dr.
B. E. McBrayer. anuestheseolo
gial: and director of clinical
health at Mt. Edlgeoumlbe hospi
tal. explained the features of
the proposed Alaska mental
health law.
In its present state, it is only
a bill .struggling for a hearing
as a bill, Ibut if the measure
should become law, Dr. Me
Brayer felt that many of the
abuses now prevalent would be
removed. Some of the changes
he pointed out were:
Instead of examination by
jury which may be completely
untrained to make judgments
and which is subject to influ
ence, persons under question
would be examined by two lic
ensed physicians, with a hear
ing before a board, not a jury.
Inslte'ad of being treated as
criminals, as they now are,
those adjudged mentally ill
would be treated as others who
are sick. Bather than being put
into jail, as sometimes happens
under the present setup, the
mentally ill persons would be
placed in the nearest hospital
while wailting for transporta
tion to an institution which is
equipped to help the mentally
ill. A nurse or other trained
person would accompany him
to the ins/ li'tution.
Fifteen days after the pat
ient had been admitted to such
an institution, a report would
have to be sent to the commis
sioner, the person who prefer
ded the charges and the depart
ment of health.
Also, those in charge of ad
miriisierintg Jhe program would
have the authority to negotiate
wuth other institutions besides
Morningside for the care of
patienks.
In an informal postscript to
Dr. MeRrayer’s talk. Dr. Spang
ler, chief of the medical service
of the division of Indian health
of Washington, D. C.. spoke a
bout mental health as a prob
lem in the states. He said men
tal health was considered thej
number one health problem by j
the governors’ conference in
the states.
According to the last statis
tics with which he was famil
iar. of children now in grade
school, one out of ten would
need psychiatric treatment, and
one out of twenty would be com
mitted to a mental hospital. Yet'
in this area bf treatment, there
is :he lowest ratio of doctors
and trained help per patient.
Dr. Spangler emphasized the
point that if Alaskans wished
the bill to get a hearing, the ef
forts and enthusiasm of the
Men al Hygiene Association
should be enlisted, for they
were more instrumental than
any other group in initiating
such action.
At the business meeting
which preceded the program
the club vot ed to pay an extra
fifty cents to make uip the a
mount required this year by
! the Alaska Federation for the
scholarship fund. Also memb
ers will make a cash donation
to send Christmas gifts to hos
pitalized children, with an ap
pointed committee selecting the
gft'S.
The Woman’s Club will spon

troop, with Miss Phyllis Lowe
as representative on the coun

sons for a trial period, with the

Harry Brandt.
Guests in addition to the

and Mrs. Maymie Dailey.
Following adjournment, re

ick Knelbel, William Arthur
and Henry Chapman.

Clemson has one of the finest
groups of backs we have play

one week, and then perform as
they did algainst UCLA?
John Cheilberg. Washington
— Well, Ithaft’s why people go
to see football games. If both
Southern California and UCLA
play as they did against us, it
should be close when they meet
Red Sanders, UCLA — I
don’t want any more like that
one. We didn’t look like any 27
point favorite, did we I don’t
think you oan call -a team (great
unless ill can come back in the
second half. We played with
authority in the second half.
Old Professor — And who
gave you the authority, may I
ask? You must have played an
unauthorized game in the first
half. Oh, well, let it go. Mr.
Mitchell, vour boys were pret
ty tight, I hear. On defense,
that is.
Jack Mitchell, Arkansas —
Yes sir, I’m proud of our de
fense. It has been very good in
the last three games, allowing
only seven points, and it held
SMU to il.fs lowest ground gain
of any game this year — 139
/ears. When I came to Arkan- j
sas I had more trouble chang
inig the defense than the of
fense, but the boys have mast
ered it now. Arkansas was just
as high as it was against Rice (
he week before.
Woody Woodard, Southern j
Methodist — Arkansas’ defense
against wide play® >wa® the tou
ghest I’ve seen this year, and
that includes Notre Dame and
Georgia Tech. There was no
key plays; Arkansas just out
blocked and outtackled us.
Old Professor — That's a
couple of big ouits, as we’d stay
after a douible play. And speak
ing of out, our time has run
that way. See you next week,
gentlemen, and kindly close
the door quietly as you leave.
I have a slight hango—er, head
ache.
