Vol. 72, No. 103 Hershey trimmed By JOYCE KIRSCHNER Collegian Senior Reporter Penn State’s Hershey Medical Center is feeling the affects of a trimmed 1971-72 state appropriation. The shortage of funds has resulted in a delay in opening some sections of the hospital and-has- caused-a cutback in clinical departments. After months of debate over enrollment and restrictions on medical graduates, the legislature in late February approved Senate Bill 1127 and granted Hershey $2,217,000. All .other University allocations passed in August. The University had originally, requested more than $5 million for Hershey, but' Governor Shapp cut the figure to $2.3 million iii his recom mendations to -the legislature. Because the "Senate and House could not agree on a sum, Benjamin R. Donolow, chairman of the Senate.

He explained the hospital recently opened, and needs more for initial expenses. —The difference betweenthe amount of money neede'd and that available from the state has been made up in part from the University’s reserve funds for capital development. Norris said the University was hoping for the $5 million so the Hershey budget could be balanced. “We hoped the state would help; we need a lot of money for— start-up costs also,” he said. He added that reserve funds are running low. In an interview with The Daily Collegian, George T. Harrell Jr., dean of the Medical Center, discussed the details of the cutbacks. According to Harrell, the hospital opened in Oct. 1970 with 100 beds. The number has increased to 200, but the hospital hasn’t been able to reach its 350 bed capacity as planned. oatlg CflUpgt ' ■ y *‘‘ ‘5 Center feels budget effects Published by Students of The ’Pennsylvania State University University Park, Pennsylvania Thursday .March 9,1972 —photograph by Noel Roche Harrell explained a medical school is .divided into a basic medical sciences department (classroom instruction) and’ a .clinical. department (medical, specialties) which works with the hospital. - “Our classroom instruction has not been affected, but growth in medical specialities has lagged because of in sufficient faculty,” he said.' 1 He cited delays in pulmonary and renal disease study as examples. Harrell said another problem ,may result from the hospital having to hire fewer residents and interns next year. “Although the money shortage hasn’t affected our enrollment yet, it will if the hospital doesn’t grow to maximum size because students spend almost the entire last two years of medical school working the hospital. There’is very little classroom work,” he said.

That way, if the contract is broken and the contractors come running to the • University-for payment, we cannot be forced to pay since .we.had no say in the contract.” Spence added, “The University would be more sophisticated in reviewing contracts. That way we could be sure the att way ys. Garrett, head of Students for Keddie, described Oswald. “There’s a limit to what I can'say because there’s a limit to what he said,” Ms. Garrett told the students waiting to hear the results of the Old Main meeting. ‘ ‘He said he would accept our petitions in the spirit that we'presented them,” she said. Oswald also assured the student committee the decision-will not come in the summer, when most students are away from campus, she added. “We can’t assume the man is a liar. We must take him at face value, and assume he will act in a rational way if" he "doesn’t, we’ll be back,” Ms. Garrett told the' supporters. Especially concerned with the way in which 'students signed the petition, Oswald said he will investigate this to make sure no one was coerced or strongarmed into signing it, according to Thomas Bainbridge. ■ «■ Bainbridge recommended students call or write Oswald to explain that their signature was a sincere effort to support Keddie and not a “fly by night, in significant gesture.” Oswald with Keddie supporters tax dollars to a degree never before seen in state government.” His list of “ihequities” of the Shapp machine included: the governor’s purchase of a 12- passenger turbo-jet airplane and component parts for three-quarters of a million dollars "when that airplane can’t even land oh most of Pennsylvania’s airfieldsr Why-couldn’t "he -have -been satisfied with the five-passenger twin engine plane used by his predecessors?” —the placement of the son of Shapp’s Agriculture Secretary James D.

'••‘"T don’t know what Spence’s motive are for this,” Deach said. “Here’s a guy who has been telling us all year that area governments should be effective and get into’effective programs.
