DELTA SIGMA DELTA, DELTA TAU DELTA The big southpaw from Ventura suffers from an acute facial erythema whenever caught pulling a boo-boo by his classmates. For instance the time he went to lunch and threw a towel over his desk without turning off his Bunsen resulting, he thought, in the total loss of his wax-up. Fortunately, it was strictly a put up job. V e don ' t suppose he ' ll ever know who gave him that hot foot in the middle of one of Dr. Darley ' s allow me to digress for one moment sessions in the prosthetic lab. His talents in technique are matched only by his game of basketball and finess on the row. He ' s one of the few guys who can take time out for sun and still stay in the point race. Viva la roho!

EARL W. FEATHERSTONE Salt Lake City, Utah U. of Utah XI PSI PHI, SIGMA PI, LAMBDA DELTA SIGMA Earl is a man of boundless optimism; who else would get married the week before finals and plan it that way. Of course, some guys will do anything for a clinic patient! He is the relaxed type of student especially with the shades down during lectures. With his easy going approach to clinical work, Featherhead produces very beautiful and precise work with the aid of his favorite operative instructor, Curly. Earl intends to return to Utah where he will associate with his brother Lee ( ' 50) . 4 y JBf Ik h B JTv. CHARLES FORBES, JR. Long Beach, Calif. use XI PSI PHI This misplaced southern gentleman from Okla- homa found some solace and a feeling of loyalty to the confederacy ( suh ) in moving to Southern California. This boy was weaned on hominy grits and black-eyed peas and if his humor is insulted by being thought of a dam-yankee, he ' ll likely say, that ' s ridikerlus. True to the southern tradition, his chief talent is that of a gracious efficient host and in buttering up little ole ladies for big ole tips at Yosemite. As a naval reserve officer he beat the Army out of a good foot pump dentist. He started his motor running when he started school and that foot has thumped overtime ever since. Whenever he sets up practice, his success will be due as much to his diplomacy, tact, and blarney as to his precise and meticulous craftmanship.
