James Amphlett Being at the head of the class roster has led to some embarrassing early mornings for Jim, but he has man- aged to survive them in one way or another. Coming to us from the University of Connecticut, where he also did graduate work in bacteriology (in order to be thor- oughly prepared for Solonology ), Jim has made his presence known here at Columbia. He is a recipient of a United States Public Health Service Research Grant, and often can be seen in the clinic serving as the subject for his own experiments. As Dr. Portway ' s assistant he has gained invaluable experience which is manifested in the inlays he has placed in his lovely wife Virginia ' s mouth. The senior year has been an extremely joyous one for the Amphletts, being blessed with the birth of their beautiful daughter, Valerie. During these four years, Jim has also been an active member of Psi Omega fraternity and is a holder of a Dean ' s Scholarship. Having completed his military obligation before entering dental school, Jim looks to- wards graduation with one eye on general practice, which he hopes will soon follow.

SENIORS

Lawrence Annus Larry has the distinction of being the only senior who can carry his instrument kit to the Pedodontics clinic without the loss of an extra breath. His square shoulders are an integral part of the general anesthesia procedure as he helps the patients from the operating room. But, Larry is not one to display his brawn. In fact, at Mari- etta College he was the college handball champion, showing that agility and dexterity are part of this im- mense frame. At school, the type of work he does, proves this, time and time again. Larry is an active member of Alpha Omega fraternity, and this year did a capable job of managing the finances of the organiza- tion, as its treasurer. Larry and his lovely wife, Paula, live in the Bronx with their adorable new daughter, Alene Beth. A very proud father, his face beams whenever he talks about or shows a picture of his pride and joy. Confident in himself, and in his ability, Larry plans to enter private practice upon graduation. There is no doubt that he will be an impressive figure to any new patient entering his office, and after being exposed to the high quality of his work, who can question a suc- cessful future?
