Excerpted text	Charity hospital's phony psychiatrist can spend the next two years studying tales of yellow inmates in Parish Prison; Paul Pitts, 22, a high school graduate who posed for seven weeks as a psychiatrist in Charity hospital, was sentenced yesterday to two year terms on each of two forgery counts and 90 days for impersonation. The sentences will run concurrently. Pitts was sentenced by Judge George P. Platt on entering pleas of guilty, according to Assistant district attorney Morey Sear. Posing as "Dr. Jack Lang" Pitts was admitted to Charity hospital as a first-year resident in psychiatry June 1. He was arrested July 21 after being recognized by another resident as a former Army corporal.
