Miami Hurricane, April 13, 1976

              The women’s birth control and advisory clinic that opened here two weeks ago was “booked solid both nights," according to Health Center Director Dr. Eugene FI ipse.
The Women’s Campus Clinic-opens every Wednesday night and is an extension of a Medical School service previously available only in the Jackson
Memorial Hos-pital area.
David Duncan and Andy Za-doff, both UM medical students, persuaded the Student Health Service Advisory Committee to extend birth control services to the Health Center in a meeting March 19.
Duncan said that medical students, under faculty supervision. have treated and referred more than 100 patients since the campus clinic opened.
“The need was greater than we had expected, we've had a really good turnout," Duncan said.
Duncan said that administrative, clerical and laboratory assistance promised by Dr. Flipse has been adequate.
“Despite all the bad publicity the Health Center gets, they have gone overboard to help us," Duncan said.
However, Duncan said the clinic is having some trouble
getting organized.
“We're having problems setting up records," Duncan said.
Duncan said the clinic was not able to finish treating patients until after 2 am. the first day of operations, but closed at 10:30 p.m. last Wednesday.
“This is why we began our program in the spring, so we'd be able to organize and get ready for the fall semester," Duncan said.
He said surveys will be conducted to determine if there is enough demand for keeping the birth control clinic open over the summer.
The Monday Night Clinic at JMH will be available to students during summer months, Duncan said.
“We will definitely be open at the Health Center during the first week of classes in the fall.” Duncan said.

Ducks lYolcsl Osceola
By BOH IIIKSIION
In response to recent derogatory articles in the
Miami Hurricane, angered ducks today marched on The Rock in peaceful, hut tense, demonstration. Hundreds of
local and stale police were called in to keep a lid on what m{ght have erupted into a violent, uncontrolled riot.
After an unsuccessful attempt by Henry “King" Stanford to pacify the dem-
onstratnrs, the enraged ducks marched single-file to the Ashe Building. Here they complained of deteriorating living conditions and demanded full dlselonurv <>( the contents of l ake Osceola. In addition, the ducks called for the removal of dirty, bothersome students

that frequent the area in ever-increasing numbers.
A spokesman for the ducks, who termed present living conditions “nutra-aeoua1* and 4*opfOaaatvn,> added. “This campus should he kept for those who deserve it; UM is for the birds.”

Disco Night's Mr.
By F.RIC SC HIMMtL
Muffitan» Staff Wrtfar
"I got a lot of negative feedback at first,” says Dan Best, better known as Mr. Majestic, "but. now I'm proud to be able to pick the music that moves people.”
Best is the innovator and disc jockey of the Rathskeller's most popular evening program, Disco Night. He began the program early last semester after placing records for the student orientation program, Happy Hour and WVUM.
"People began clamoring for funkier music," remembers Best. "I'd always felt that disco was a cheap, versatile way to provide entertainment."
Best approached the Rathskeller staff with the idea of an evening program of recorded music specifically aimed at the dancing crowd. Since most nights already had some sort of program planned. Best was given Wednesday night, which was usually reserved for movies.
“Another guy started disco night even though it had been my idea, but he wasn't really very good and he bombed out," Best said.
“I had been doing parties in Washington D.C. and I had the
record collection and the knowledge of what good dancing music is."
Best returned to the Rat, looking for a chance to prove that disco would be popular. He got his chance in October.
“I was really nervous that first night," Best said. “There had already been a negative reaction and I was trying to salvage the idea. At 9 p.m. that first night, the place was empty and I was worried. “Then, as 10 p.m. rolled around, the place was jammed. By the end of that first night the vibrations were so positive that I felt great.”
Ever since then Best has run Disco Night by popular demand. Of course he said there are always people who don't dig what he’s doing, who go up to his sound booth with requests for Led Zeppelin or Tammy Wynette, but Best feels strongly about his music.
Majestic Brings Soul To The Ral
“I took lots of abuse at first," Best said. “1 was accused of conditioning the students to like bad music, but I felt I was filling a void. There was enough rock, jazz, and other assorted music being played in the Rat, and I wanted to make this my contribution to the community.
••I've wondered why disco has become what it has and I really don't have an answer.
"Even the name 'Disco Night' was a lucky choice.
"We were going to call it ‘Soul Night.’ which could have alienated some people. Instead we decided Disco Night would have a broader appeal."
Disco Night received little publicity and relied upon word of mouth advertising. Within a short lime the Rat was packed every Wednesday night.
"People draw people," Best said "One thing I've liked about Disco Night is the excellent mixture of people."
"I picked up the name Mr. Majesti« in 1974, in an English class. An art student named Jeff had been watching me and one day said that 1 was a very majestic man. I picked up on it and used it on VUM and later at the Rat It has now become connected with the thing that I do.
"It doesn't bother me. hut I’ve made mv name and reputation as Mr. Majestic. To some people I'm important Wednesday night, but they don't even recognize me Thursday in class,” muses Best.
Best is graduating from UM at the end of this semester and plans to move to Virginia and to give up disc jockeying. He said his wife doesn't believe him.
The Rat is currently taking auditions for a new master of ceremonies for Disco Night.
“I hope the students don’t compare my successor to me too much." smiles Best. "Saying the right thing at the right time and having an extensive knowledge of music .should be all the criteria it takes."
Nonetheless, Mr. Majestic will be a hard act to follow.
