JOHN L. GENUNG John was born in Texas at an early age but soon gave this up for more productive labor. By way of Nebraska, Michigan State, and Glenwood, Iowa High School he came to Stan. Law bringing a new car, a young son, one wife and assorted debts. The debts are larger, the car is no longer new, and changes have likewise occurred in the aforesaid wife and child as John staggers away after putting in his time. All was not for naught, however, as he has acquired the magical ability to think like a lawyer. fFanfare.j Observers, however, have noted an increasing tendency to mumble, Telescope, microscope! -Friends and relatives are undecided as to whether he should be committed or recorded. KIRK A. GUSTAFSON Kirk was born in Philadelphia Pennysylvania on November 6, 1944. A precocious child, he reached the zenith of his career when in 1962 he was chosen most likely to succeed by his classmates at Franklin High School in Portland, Oregon. Despite the long decline that followed he was able to graduate from Whitman College in 1966 where he majored in political science. After a year at Stanford Law School Kirk opted for the good life-a Porsche, a stereo, Tahiti, and a beautiful girl who still recall his high school heroics. After many months of such shameful hedonism he returned for two more grueling years at Bay Manning's country club by the El Camino. Upon graduation Kirk wants to work for a public defenders office or to retire to Magic Beach. ZMQ, GERALD M. HALLIGAN ffm Jerry was born in 1945 in Oakland, California. Unable to exert his individuality he was taken a year later to Seattle, Washington. There for seventeen years he slogged through the rain to obtain an education. He finally acquired a B.A. in finance from the University of Washington, as an honors graduate to everyone's surprise. He also acquired diarrhea from community development work in Mexico, frostbite from several years as a professional ski instructorg a smooth line from much involvement in campus politics and Theta Chi fraternityg and a wife named Penny, or more appropriately Bug.', After coming to Stanford Jerry and Penny dried out and decided they like the sun. The Bug multiplied in May and their daughter Kelly was born opportunely in the middle of second year final exams. In the future they are likely to be found near the California coast, the Bug multiplying, and he performing as a trial attorney or skier Cbut in no event doing a rain dancej.

ANNETTE GALUSTIAN Annette has often been asked how the shifting sands of time and life brought her to the Stanford Law School to assume her much misunderstood, and yet important, role of being the school's token Armenian. Annette was a refugee from the East, more specifically, Teheran, New York City, and State College Chome of Pennsylvania State Universityj. The small town atmosphere of State College and the hills of the surrounding countryside unwarped the Annette that too many years in N.Y.C. produced. Stanford has taught Annette to be semi-articulate, coldly rational, socially aware and, failing those, to fall back on her natural asset. While at Stanford she has served as Second Year Class Representative and representative to the Graduate Student Association. Annette also participated in the Legal Aid Society as Chairman of the Consumer Protection Committee. The summer Annette worked for the Santa Clara County Legal Aid Society was as valuable as any semester spent in high powered intellectual discussion in that it brought her professional future into realistic perspective. Annette plans to practice law in an effort to contribute to something other than the Population Explosion 6' al cf 5 f 7 . g.,.,g 7 0 - CLIFFORD MICHAEL GANSCHOW Mr. Ganschow hails from Anaheim, California, famous for the Jungleride at Disneyland. He came north to Stanford for a seven year academic interlude, receiving a B.A. in Economics in 1967 and a J.D. in 1970. Following graduation, Mr. Ganschow admits looking forward to renewed associations with,Fred Duffy, Jim Thomas, Frank McNell, Trader Sam, and the rest of the guys. Poor Jim spent most of his early years rousting about the Pennsylvania woods. Like all good ferral children he divided his time expeditiously between stealing eggs and barking at the moon. Having resolved the crisis of lack of sufficient body hair in favor of a return to civilization our hero drifted off to Stimpson Observatory to share the academic spotlight with such notables as Wo, Lump, Shep, and Pete. Undaunted by his prep school days the young lad grew strong and straight tempered by travail in the mines and the Pittsburgh mills. Biding his time the merry mercenary tripped off to the banks of the Susquehanna where he spent four uneventful years in exclusive training as a member of America's great leisure elite. Unconcerned with the advances of crypto-reality the stalwart chum soon crossed the Great Divide, diploma in hand, academic cherry still intact, and descended unsuspectingly upon'the hallowed confines of Stanford Law School. And what a treat it was! Only momentarily taken aback, the fearless young crusader soon grasped the real kernel of the thing and devoted his talents to wine, song and sun. He spent his three years, if not wisely, at least well. And though time's test may someday rule against him, it was probably a bargain at twice the price. .Nl ff? 51

HENRY H. HAPPEL Hap came to Stanford after four years in New Haven, primed for the law school scene and the West Coast action. I must confess a temptation to discuss his deeds in the larger arena, for Hap was in on many a rally, expedition, high-altitude assault, turkey-day soiree, hoedown, beach-out, move-in, and run-down. But you, dear reader, are no doubt less interested in the fun than in the facts. They are these. At the bell for the opening round Hap came out with his hands down and got beat around but good. He tired early and was finally put down by a vicious incorporeal hereditament willy. In the second round he began to show the moves he picked up in the titillating- Title-tax-triumvirate, and finished with a big right to the grading system. At last report he was stronger still in the third, pounding methodically away at international law. All indicators are that he will emerge battered but still standing, fit for all except the army. Hap's post-fight plans center on international law, economic development, and Latin America. He points out that people are starving down there. CQHOQZMV X770 WILLIAM C. HODGE Let the record show that while Bill was in law school, the United States fought a war in South East Asia .... Bill prepared his mind and body for Stanford Law School by lj assisting his parents with the care and feeding of 40 Holstein milch cows near Springfield, Ohio, 21 attending Harvard, and 33 soldiering with the American armed forces fthese three activities were pursued in the given order, and, roughly, are of equal significancej. , After a riotous first year at Crothers, Bill moved to the peaceful confines of Phi Delta Theta, but for the third year returned to Crothers as the R.A. He found the B. Bays era a tough act to follow. His primary legal experiences have included a summer with LSCRRC, a summer with a Portland, Oregon law firm, many courtroom battles on behalf of Phi Delts, and a thorough field study of ski torts. His biggest mistake in law school was once listening to a buffoon named John Carl Mundt. He hopes to be a high school track coach. I was born of German immigrant parents on June 3, 1945. I attended local public schools in an uptight upstate New York city, until I was caught outside the faculty women's toilette facility with a periscope. Military school was a drag but I was happy to fulfill my military obligation in this manner instead of in some clearly more onerous route. After graduating from Military school with a marksmanship medal, I obtained an appointment to West Point which I accepted. For a year and one half I compiled a distinctive record at the bend in the Hudson. Unfortunately I was implicated in a well-known scandal and dismissed from the Point, thereby thwarting my long range goal of a career in the Action Army. I was graduated with distinction from Parson's College a few years later. I received inquiries from Stanford, and after a suitable mull period graciously accepted their offer. I studied long and hard at the law school and remained remarkably untainted by the myriad of temptations around me. Only to this can I attribute my recent thought conversion, so that I may finally say with veracity and gratitude that Stanford has made me Think Like A Lawyer. Z X92
