A resident doctor will now be on call every night at Stillman Infirmary under a new policy instituted by Dr, Dana L. Farnsworth, Henry K. Oliver Professor of Hygiene. This policy will remain in effect until the new Health Center is built, Farnsworth reported yesterday.

The move has been instituted so that a doctor will be readily available to students at all times, Farnsworth explained. Formerly, Stillman nurses had to call a doctor after a patient had been admitted at night to the infirmary.

Farnsworth said the hiring of a resident doctor from Peter Bent Brigham Hospital would reduce minimum fees for consultations from five dollars to between one and three dollars.

"We will have a different physician on call each night," the psychiatrist said, "so that we won't have to take any chance about the doctor being too tired to do an efficient job."

The change in the policy at Stillman comes as an effort to make the most of existing facilities until new funds for a Health Center can be collected, he added.

This policy will remain in effect until September of 1956 at the earliest.
