DONALD HOLM, B. S. Long Beach, California U. of Calif. DELTA SIGMA DELTA, SIGMA CHI We hope that by the time Don has spent four full years in dental school that he will have claimed use as his Alma Mater. He ' s been trying to live down the fact that he graduated from Cai ever since he left Strawberry Canyon. In the technique building and clinic Don could always be found diligently attempting to set new records in achievement (except after an SC victory over Cal) . This erstwhile Digger O ' Dell has been quite active outside of school being, of all things, an assistant at The Mortch. After graduation Don plans to practice in Long Beach. What could be better for a Beach Bum? We ' re confident that the profession is fortunate indeed to have him as a fellow practitioner. ERNEST S. HORANY Cushing, Oklahoma use PSI OMEGA, ALPHA TAU EPSILON If there ' s an elbow in your side or you find yourself being knocked over as you walk along and you see a round ball-like figure bustling away — that ' s Ernie. Hornie ' s personality is bubbling to say the least. His being elected Junior Class president vouches for his popularity. The first two years of school found him holding his own midnight oil cram sessions for the benefit of a select group. For business and pleasure just bring out a deck of cards and he ' ll fleece you out of your last buck. He ' ll probably get a deck of pasteboards for a diploma. All in all, he is a great guy and if you wont to meet a perfect host and hostess, just drop in and see Ernie and his wife, Mable. They are terrific!

ED HAMMER PSI OMEGA, ALPHA TAU EPSILON Ed, after leading the Marine Corps to a smash- ing victory in the Pacific, returned to his former life as country gentleman, establishing himself in Santa Ana. Ed and his wife, Maxine, have three boys: Rick, Danny, and Tim, with the newest edi- tion being a girl, Mary Angela. Ed will have one of the largest practices in Santa Ana, what with four kids (who think their dad is the greatest ever) spreading the word. How can he miss? Ed ' s achievements in school have been political as well as scholastic. The office of Student Body 2nd Vice in the Soph year won Ed membership in A.T.E. Attendance of at least one lecture per sem- ester, systematic study the morning before finals, have put Ed high among those who regularly receive the Purple Shaft. Tecuu oot .L -g LOUIS HERBERS Los Angeles Los Angeles C. C, Los Angeles State PSI OMEGA Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Lou and family just nosed out the Okies when they rolled into the Hollywood area. Louis ' three years in the Navy were spent as an Airdale. Speaking of flying, a little T.W.A. hostess, (Barbara) clipped our boy ' s wings in the Senior year. Now an occasional round of golf and romance by firelight are the order of the day. Lou has found his niche in dentistry. He loves it, and is steadily improving in his ability. A charter member of the Noon Bridge Club has found Lou in many a heated debate with Jack (Goren) Dahlberg. Lou will be well-remembered for his stellar performance in our Christmas play. By the way, Lou, did you ever join the student A.D.A.?

VICTOR ISRAEL Los Angeles U C L A, U S C ALPHA OMEGA Vic is a real native son, (many think of him as just a real native, period). Vic attended UCLA, State College, and USC after graduating Fremont High School. He had decided his talents were too big for just one university. The Islander, as he is known to his friends, spent his summers working at Catalino as a waiter, life guard, and occasionally as a beach comber. Vic ' s hobbies are many and varied. They include Georgia, boatin g, water skiing, Georgia, a quickie hearts or spades game, soft shoe dancing, and Georgia. Victorio is a charter member of the American Loggers Association, which is the western branch of the National Stick Ball League. He is also a self-recognized expert on giving infiltrations on upper first molars. Vic, who might be called the Ramar of the Jungle of the Class of 1955, plans on a two-year cruise on one of Uncle Sam ' s banana boats, and then practicing in this area. Good luck to you Victor, you are one of the best . DONIVAN E. JACKSON Los Angeles U. of Oklahoma, USC DELTA SIGMA DELTA, ALPHA TAU EPSILON The man who has gained the reputation of Mr. Boogie Talker of the class of 1955, Don is also a fast worker. During the freshman year his wife, Ruth, presented him with a boy . . . the third child in 30 months. Whenever you find a crowd of students it ' s sure to be Don on his soap box conducting a one man discussion concerning anything from Western Mon- golian diatomaceous earth to Perry Kay. For his clinical aptitudes during the junior year, Don was elected to ATE and also received the coveted Epsilon-lota-Tau-Tau-Tau-Sigma Award from his brother Delts. Don being an active man academically and socially has made many friends while in dental school and will surely be capable of talking his way into success anywhere.
