He attended three institutions of higher learning: Penn State University, the United States Army (where he received invaluable training as a warehouse handler), and La Salle College. In 1963 he married his childhood sweetheart, the former Bernis Nei-man, who teaches English and Russian at Northeast High School in Philadelphia. They have no children as yet. but they do have one very large and lovable cat named Cinnamon Sidney Granger and a nameless life sized papier-mache camel. Barry claims that no family is complete without a camel.

STUART LIPSKIND A Washingtonian. Stu attended the University of Maryland where he majored in biology. At the same time he kept an acute eye on an enthusiastic young relative who had just begun practicing podiatry. After observing the nature of the profession and discussing podiatric education, he made application to P.C.P.M. The years in Philadelphia provided a sophisticated center city atmosphere that affected Stuart's perception of his surroundings. He became greatly interested in photography during his second year and attained a highly proficient and sensitive level by his third. The cosmopolitan nature of city living that primed his social consciousness led him to use the vehicle of photography to deeply explore his new and vital environment which in turn augmented even further his lust for awareness. His byword became to be oblivious leads only to oblivion. In his fourth year of school he had published a photographic essay on the Chester Ferry in the Rotogravure section of the Philadelphia Bulletin. He also had a major exhibition of some forty prints. All in all. the years in Philadelphia were an eye opening experience. 19

On January 4. 1943 a strange cry was heard from southern Delaware. It was discovered by the local bird watchers to be the cries of the forgetful Mark-izon Bird. This forgetful bird migrated to West Philadelphia where he was incubated and developed into a West Philadelphia Speedboy. Upon graduation, he decided to become a Nittany Lion at University Park for two years, but the unstoppable western migration forced him deeper into the Ohio northlands to become a Polar Bear at Ohio Northern University. During this period of Ron's (alias the forgetful Markizon Bird) life, he caught his talons in a hunter's trap which made him appreciate good foot health and he applied to P.C.P.M. After Ron’s first year at P.C.P.M. his tail feathers started to quiver and he mated with Joan Swartz, a bird of another feather. Jodi, a cute little she bird, was hatched two years later to fill out their nest. Ron spent his spare time dabbling in the Audoborn Society stock market with fellow birds Ed and Rick. Ron hopes to begin practicing after a year of internship at Saint Luke's Hospital. RONALDS. MARKIZON 21
