The medical center serves about 1,500 people in a district of approximately 40 miles. A typical day brings 30 to 35 patients, both natives and tourists. Howell is the only doctot in the area, a fact he took into account when planning the building. The examiningrooms are in a row so he can go quickly from one room to the next. A window over the sink looks into the labor-delivery room so he can keep an eye on the expectant mother while scrubbing for delivery. The clinic has extra storage space for supplies because ofthe time it takes to get deliveries from the mainland. "Just be­ cause we're small doesn't meanwe can do without things," says Howell. "We have to stock all the same drugs and supplies that a larger hospital would; wejust don't use them as often." Two of the nurses live on the clinic grounds and take turns answering after­ hours calls. "They actually serve as nurse practitioners," explains Howell. "They handle what they can and call me when necessary." Many emergencies can be handled right in Hana. The nearest hospital is three hours of bad roads away, so the medical center has an operating room for minor surgery. Patients requiring hospi­ talization or major surgery are flown to a hospital on the other end ofthe island or to Honolulu. Arrangements have been made so a pilot always is oncall.

"Nobody tells you how much money people make, what you should expect. Nobody's sitting people down and saying, 'Don't sign a contract with a record company until you know this, this, and this.... Don't give your publishing away.' "Those are basic, everyday facts that young people should be aware of before they decide to live this kind of life. Too often, all they see is the gold records and the pictures in the paper, and all they hear is the music." Whatthey will hearlater are the critics. Mangione reads his reviews, but hasn't worried about them since the time a critic

For many people, life is one long siege of nervous tension. According to DR psychI­ ogistRonald Kokes, behavior modifi­ cation therapy can work wonders-without spending years on a psychoanalyst's couch. If you're willing to work at it you can change your life.

She may r develop "obsessive-compulsive," phobic, or anxious behavior, which in many cases can come to dominate and control her everyday life. People who are obsessive-compulsive victimize themselves with repetitive, anxious thoughts. Often they are preoc­ cupied with cleanliness or neatness: they will say to themselves, "I'm dirty" or "My house is filthy," and proceed to take a bath or vacuum the rug over and over ( again.

J According to Dr. Kokes, obsessive­ compulsive behavior has always been difficult to treat. "Psychotherapy has had little success, and drugs don't work for many of these people," he says. "Since the problem has usually been a long time developing, it seems to take us about two years to treat it effectively." However, the treatment process itself may bring secondary problems into the open. If, for example, a woman who is convinced that she is dirty can be taught to take a bath only two times a day instead of eight, she might be able to UA llegory, " woodcut by Edvard Munch, 1898 function more normally.

39 Review Point

Aside from the fact that they are all University of Rochester undergraduates, members of the women's swimming team and members ofthe Model UnitedNations debate team don'tseem to have much in common. Even this past semester, when five of the women swimmers competed in the AIAW National Championships and eight ofthe Model U.N. students represented the University in competition, the groups were 2,500 miles apart. The swimmers went to Reno, Nev., the U.N. team to Cambridge, Mass. But members of both groups shared one experience on their respective trips: they enjoyed meeting and socializing with Rochester alumni. Swimming coach Jean Chase-Farnum and her squad members who had qualified for the nationals arrived in Reno on a Sunday. On Monday afternoon they received a telephone call at their hotel from Dr. Gerald Dales '51, a former Rochester football star and a classmate of athletic director Dave Ocorr. Ocorr had told Dr. Dales that the swimmers would be in Reno. "Dr. Dales andhis wife took us outto dinneron Tuesday night," said Maureen Hopke, who holds University records in three freestyle events. "We went to a really nice restaurant, and we were there for three hours. We had a great time." The first plan was for the group to meet on Monday night, but Dr. Dales, an orthopaedic surgeon, couldn't make it. "He's the team physician for the University of Nevada at Reno," Hopke explained, "and they had a home basketball game that night." On another evening, however, the women visited the Dales at home. "We had a lot of fun," Hopke said. "We went through old yearbooks with them and looked at some clippings. He told us Rochester group. "We made and changed.arrangements to meet how he'd smuggled the Dekes' mascot, a kitten, into his him three times before we hit on a mutually agreeable time. baccalaureate ceremony.
