ADOLPHE DEBROT Emerging victorious from the tedious task of competing with men who were adept at the language and techniques of taking examina- tions, Al deserves the commendation of all. A graduate of Rutgers University, Al will not concern himself with State Boards, since it is his intention after his dental school graduation to practice in Curacao, N. W. I. Future plans in addition to private practice consist of an occasional visit to the United States for ad- vanced studies and refresher courses in den- tistry. We ' re looking forward to a visit to the island of Curacao where Al will extend his well-known hospitality with vodka and gin and tonic. ROBERT DOLCE Remembered for his somnambulistic morn- ings, Bob has riot only managed to weather the tides of dental school but along the journey has had time to add three passengers, Mary, his wife, and two children, Robbie and Anne Elizabeth. Bob ' s wayfaring ways come as no surprise as he had previously spent two years with the U. S. Merchant Marine Academy. Fordham College claimed him and after bestow- ing a B.S. degree upon him, sent him on to Columbia Dental School. Equally at ease with a camera or a handpiece Bob ' s a member of this yearbook ' s photographic staff. Summers were spent as a gas station attendant to augment a junior and senior partial scholarship. Private practice in Westchester is in the immediate luture.

HARVEY B. CORNELL A firm believer in doing things on-the- double, Harvey possesses an endless amount of energy and drive. Coming to us by way of Canisius College, he has been a member of Alpha Omega. During the war, Harvey was with the Naval Air Corps and saw service in the Pacific Theatre. He is the holder of a War State Scholarship. Not confining his restless spirit to dentistry alone, Harvey has managed to engage in various gainful activities outside of school. He has worked as a policeman in Tallman Mt. State Park during the summers, and he serves as a Councilman at Shanks Vil- lage, where he lives with wife Sybil and daugh- ter Sharon Linda. For the future, Harvey plans either to enter state service, or to set up a pri- vate practice in Rochester, N. Y. - JT GEORGE MAC DONALD COULTER Waxing up ear-to-ear splints or shoed cusp inlays, soft-spoken George can always be found working to the late hours of the evening in his extracurricular capacity as assistant to Dr. Cain. George is truly Psi Omega Fraternity ' s gift to the Class of 1954. Senator during his sopho- more year, Junior Grandmaster and Senior Grandmaster, George has climbed the ladder of success and led Psi Omega in a commendable fashion. A recipient of an A.B. degree at Bard College, George came ready and eager to work at Columbia University. During the past year George has received a Dean ' s Scholarship. Last summer George was fortunate enough to spend his time working for Dr. Cain. Future plans consist of possible United States Naval duty, and subsequent to that a private practice.

s EUGENE B. DOMAN Located in that corner of the clinic where all the students take their daily cups of water, Gene has been on the receiving end of copious amounts of stray water and idle questions. Genial Gene comes to Columbia University from the American International College in Springfield, Massachusetts, where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree. Quietly going about his work, Gene has managed to fulfill all the requirements with a minimum of wasted time, effort, and materials. A junior internship at Creedmoor State Hospital provided Gene with a rewarding summer vacation. Leisure time in New York City is spent in the fun and frolic to be found at the International House. In the future Gene is planning a private practice sub- sequent to service in the Navy. JOHN JOSEPH DUNNE Another product of the Fordham Ram, Jack received his Bachelor of Arts degree at that University and entered Columbia for four tender years of dental education. An active member of Psi Omega, Jack also served us on Student Council during the freshman year. With wife Lorraine (an acquisition of the calm junior year) he has been in good attendance at all school and fraternity functions. A top- notch bridge player who will probably be get- ting his master ' s points any day, Jack was a noted member of that famous bridge club dur- ing our fabulous sophomore year. Jack ' s sum- mer vacations have been spent working as a postal clerk. A former member of the Air Force, Jack is now planning a return to the service for two years.
