Pharmacy lab gets computers
By KATHY GRAY Staff Reporter
Drugs and computers found common ground this fall in the School of Pharmacy
Three computers were installed in the dispensing lab last summer. Students are using them for the first time this semester.
"Computeres are intimidating," said Jeremy Matchette, associate professor of pharmaceutical practice, "and since more and more applications use them, we tell the students needed hands on experience."
In a working drug store, pharmacists keep family records containing names of the members of each family, cost of drugs and, to prevent incompatible drug inter- interactions, the drugs each person takes.
MATCHETT FIRST LEARNED
how to use the computer system then adapted it to a dispensing lab.
The lab has a system of fictional families set up with various diseases, ages and medical conditions.
There are 72 booklets with prescriptions in them, and the students go through three booklets per lab period.
The students fill the prescriptions and then go to the computers to enter the prescriptions into the patient files. When the information is entered, the computer automatically prints out a label for the prescription bottle.
As the semester goes on, the patient files build until each student has used all 22 booklets.
Matchett suggested that the department purchase the computers.
"I felt enough students were going to end up working with
computers that we weren't meeting their needs. We were behind the times," Matchett said.
MICHAEL CARPENTER. Topeka senior, agrees. "When you go out on the job, you're supposed to know how to do everything. It's the school's job to prepare you."
While building the new addition to Maltof Hall in 1980, Howard Mossberg, dean of pharmacy, knew the department wouldn't have the money necessary to equip the building. So from 1977 to 1980, Mossberg ran a company called the Maltof Hall Development Fund.
The fund not only bought equipment for the building but also established an endowment fund to buy and maintain equipment.
"What we have is probably an expensive thing to do for the time the students are on it but worth it," Mossberg said.
Testimony on evidence extended
Additional testimony will be heard next week to determine whether physical evidence in the murder trial of a Lawrence teen-ager should be suppressed, a Douglas County Dispense attorney associate judge decided yesterday.
Yesterday's action by Judge Mike Malone was to continue testimony on his behalf.
Arguments will again be heard at 4:30 p.m. Thursday.
Donald E. Alexander, 19, of 303 W.
21st St., is charged with felony
murder, rape and aggravated rob-
bery in connection with the death of
Marguerite L. Vinyard, 80, whose
body was found on Aug. 5 in her home
at 2100 Tennessee St.
The motion asked for suppression of physical evidence obtained on Aug. 22. The evidence included fingerprints, hair samples, a club, bedding, clothes and what appeared bloodstains from a window ledge.
Malone heard testimony from Kevin Harmon, Lawrence police

RECOMMEND DROWNING?
Does anyone get out of a boat to drown?
Usually it is an attempt to save oneself.
No sane adult drowns himself/herself.
