Bad

‘is question. |

TORONTO (CP) — Dr.”

Basil Orchard examines
those accused of crimes and
asks the crucial question:
“Is he bad or mad?” .

Orchard is a forensic psy:
chiatrist and says his job “is
to study, examine, diagnose
and treat people whose
etnotional preblems
them into conflict with the
law.” .

As senior psychiatrist with
the forensic divislon at To-
ronto’s Clarke Institute of
Psychiatry, he sees people
accused of offences ranging:
“fram pinching bottoms on
the subway to murder, with
arson, assault, , wounding,
child molestation and rape
along the way.” sts

The most controversial
task for’ _forensi¢
pyschiatrists is todetermine .
whether an accused person
is fit to stand trial.

Dr. Fred Jensen, a deputy
director at the Metropolitan
Toronto Forensic Service, a
division of the Clarke in-
stitute, said psychiatrists
must agsess the accused and
make a recommendation to
the judge.

After a brief assessment,
they can send the person
back ti‘ stand trial, admit
him fay) treatment, and. tell...
the judge the case can be
followed up later or suggest
a remand to allow a more:
extensive examination.

Psychiatrists,
psychologists, social
workers, nurses and others
all contribute to the assess-,
ment. There may be psy-
chological tests
examinations for physical -

‘problems such as a brain

VANCOUVER (CP) —
While solar energy experts
may disagree on which solar
systems are most effective,
there is one, point of
unanimous agreement: the
public knows little about it.

Keynote speakers ad.
dressing a joint international
conference on solar energy
this week at the University of
British Columbia rapeatedly
stressed that the public must
be educated J£ solar and
other renewable enSgy
sources are ever to enjoy
wpdespread use.

One gesearch paper
presented to the five-day
meeting of solar experts
noted that “the: average
AmsSican has a better under-
standing of how a nuclear
reactor operates than how
ihe sun heats up his house.”

Some analysts also say
that as leng ag fossil fuels
remain relatively cheap,
solar energysystems will
never be popular or
ultimately understood.

But it is generally ac-
cepted that with an
estimated lifespan of 20
years for major fuels such aa
oil, North American society
must cultivate renewable
energy technology now If
those sotrces are to be
economical by the year 2000.

Those considering solar
energy for the home can
choose from Lwo basic types
of technology — active or
passive.

“An accused person,

Psychiatrists. frequently,
disagree as.to the mental

Orchard said disagreements
occur. partly because
medicine is not. an absolute
science. : .

“But the. main reason is

‘that we are asked. to fit .

something that is often quite
subtle and not. absolutely

Forensic psychiatrists are.
also often asked to provide
advice to the courts on.
sentencing or treatment. if
the crime was violent, the:
judge will want to know what.
