N X4 luan Gonzalez 5 Sebastian Glaze, known to some as the Panamanian PeriI has for the past four years, managed to elude all of our questions concerning his romantic interludes. We're not sure, but it has been suggested that it has something to do with his perpetual wearing of dark glasses and a mysterious lady in red. Always one for innovative ideas, Sebastian has become indelibly etched in Dr. MandeI's memory for his demonstrations of the bloodless alginate extraction technique. When not dubbing his voice for Un-Cola commercials, Sebastian can often been seen chugging around with his sidekick, Andy, performing bodyguard duties by swinging his purse to clear a path on his way to the top. .f 'Y ,gf P, V V l , fx-1 ,, .

3527?- A Mark Gjerde D.D.S. While anxiously awaiting his acceptance to Colonel Sanders Academy of Fried Chicken operators, Gary received his invitation to attend dental school at UCLA. Figuring that this was merely some type of unusual prerequisite, Gary became one of the class's most diligent students. Gary's student file later be- came stuffed with flowing recommenda- tions from the sophomore lab janitors who were often welcomed by Gary at 2 a.m. to a piece of chicken and a can of beer. Finding the clinic game to be child's play, Gary tried to make the game more interesting by leaving open appoint- ments, and having his four patients cancel as many as frequently as possible. His efforts did not go unappreciated. Dr. Kaplan now congratulates him each time he seats a crown and shakes his hand each time he shows he can do a Gary France procedure more than once. After graduation, Gary plans to look for a chicken franchise with a drive thru practice in San Diego. . .,,aiF?'3'HM,Li..'- me A Ol' Dirty has got to be one of our most productive comrades. By Christmas of '75 he had completed more crowns than Rimio has hairs on his chest and more endos than Dr. Serene has uhs. Nlark has, we are forced to admit, worked hard to complete these units, but the general consensus is still that he turned in the same eight units under four different instructors. Mark has always had delusions of grandeur. In the coming years we will probably see a billboard in Sacramento flashing Dr. Gjerde has one hundred offices to serve you. In all fairness, though, Nlark is one of those people who works hard enough to make it look easy. Just remember - if you keep your chin up, someone -is sure to recommend a sagittal split. The moral has something to do with the reliability of the stars.

Doug Gordon in-patient out on parole. Since he has D' to Camarillo will be self-explanatory. When the Class of '76 initially con- vened and Uncle Bob was describing our S1,850,00 worth of bargains, Doug was seen still sitting at a Kiosk trying to get directions to the school. Doug was so late in getting to UCLA that his first move was to withdraw his applica- tion for the next year. In his four years here, Doug has managed X. ' . ' s to accumulate more hours of bridge playing than bridge waxing. Even if M he has difficulty in getting his bridges If to seat, we'll always remember that if QN the Gordon finesse will always go. at During our sophomore year, Doug spent many a Friday night driving up to Camarillo. Although his girlfriend lived there, some suspect he was really an since married Ann, any continued trips Next year will probably find Doug north of Oakland giving free amalgams to anyone who comes in with a deck of cards. .1 Between clinic work, tutoring, for-real reasearch, eating and sleeping, there's little time for Alan's first love, the clarinet. Yet, the influence of his musical background is apparent both inside and outside the clinic. Outside, he can show you how to get the most out of your stereo components. Inside, he is a man of fancy fingerwork, a balanced B-flat amalgam carrier, and sheet music mixed in with the charts. If you think the clinic hassle sin't worth it, it's worth less to Alan. He is going on to oral pathology school in Indiana. Alan has promised to remember what bad lectures are like so he can give good ones. He feels that teaching with style and enthusiams is important, the quality of the lecture dependent as much on the style of delivery as on the content. We'lI just have to trust him on his own set of behavioral objectives . In any case, though, we'll know where to send our ameloblastoma biopsies, and who to call when we need an A-sharp pathologist. 34 ' A 'A
