MURRAY FURGANG All-City Furry Murgang came to us from CCNY, NYU, Fordham and St. John ' s, and served in the Army as well. As Tansky ' s room-mate he became so accustomed to living with a Tansky, he married one: Joe ' s sister! So timely was the wedding that apart- ment hunting wasn ' t necessary, thus leaving plenty of time for the fishing, hiking, and drumming Murray enjoys so much. Earning his way thru school by pl aying in a dance band, Murray occasionally tears himself away from his hobbies, Citron and Harris, to turn out a few articles for Dental Abstracts. The cfass tall-man, Furry enjoys a good game of basketball or a nice long walk to the Tansky ' s after dinner. WILLIAM WATKINS HARNETT Bill hails from Englewood, N. J., and makes the daily run to Columbia in Ed Henrich s Shanks Express. Before coming to dental school Bill attended Hanover College in Indiana and Columbia in NYC. He gained valuable experience in the US Navy as a dental technician and obviously has not let it go to waste, as his skill will attest. Alert and sharp-witted. Bill is quick to defend his midget English Ford against all cracks, and has managed to hold his own. A member of Psi Omega Fraternity, Bill is anxiously look- ing forward to an associateship he has in mind in New England.
