A student then protested that if Dr. Blaine thought that this was such an ultimate evil, why didn't the University clinic provide contraceptives on request? Dr. Blaine evaded the question. I thought this evasion was contemptible, his tears were crocodile tears, and I suppose I blew up and let him know it.

At 70, he remains an apostle of hope; he feels that all victims of mental illness are treatable and that most can make a good enough recovery to go back to their homes and jobs.
