HUGH TOLAND JONES, JR., A. B. Glendale, Calif. Pomona College, Glendale C. C, USC DELTA SIGMA DELTA, ALPHA TAU EPSILON Bud is widely known for his ferocious temper of which he has absolutely none. Probably no one was better able to internalize his problems than he; but what ' s an ulcer or two! Many years from now he ' ll pick up his copy of El Molaro and reminisce of days gone by. Pleasant thoughts of graduation, skiing trips, sailing, a June wedding, leaving parties early, etc. will fill his head. Perhaps he will regress further . . . dirty oculars from the microscope, Julies, missing oculars, Julies, missing microscope, Julies, missing slides, slide box upside down, replacing 100 slides, Julies. Further yet, the carving exams associated with memories of songs garnished with great harmony. It was these songs which inspired him to do his solo rendition of Sweet Antionette. Seriously, Bud is one sharp lad as can be at- tested by him being elected Secretary-Treasurer of the Student body, and in spite of his Delt brothers his future will be one of success and happiness. HERBERT KABRIN, B. S. Los Angeles USC ALPHA OMEGA, TAU DELTA PHI Herb Kabrin, or Herbie as he is known by his fellow classmates, arrived at USC with a smiling face and a lot of ability. His abilities wer e readily shown in his freshman year when he started and directed the Grand Society of Yodelers and Sing- ers during Wax Derbies. His singing triumphed as he quickly learned that he could drown out the class ' s protests with Kt resounding rendition of Sweet Antoinette. Seriously, Herb ' s friendly disposition, as well as his smiling face and his good natured wisecracks have always been a lot of help during many grim situations. Herb is one of the unmarried, and his ability to turn up at all the school functions with a good looking gal is often astounding. One of these days some girl is going to catch Herb at a weak moment and tie the knot. He ' s a good catch, girls!

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.

LEON E. KARNER China Lake, Calif. Bakersfield J C XI PSI PHI Whispering Earl, who emerged from the howling desert winds of China Lake, plans to prac- tice supersonic dentistry with his dad. Leon has followed in his father ' s footsteps further by becom- ing a loyal Zip. When he isn ' t reading late at night or going to movies his favorite past time is telling off instructors at the dinner table and getting away with it. Leon ' s warmth and good natured humor have won him many friends and made clinic life much more pleasant. With his academic and clinical ability his future is assured. GEORGE KAWAHARA Los Angeles UCLA Through the years in dental school, George has done much to lend his aid and advice to the older men of our class. An enthusiastic student and a superb operator, George has shown especial pro- ficiency in the field of occlusal equilibration and the class V inlays. George has also distinguished himself as a great practical joker. Nobody can tell when he is going to switch a lock or fix a game of cards. A rabid bridge player himself, George can always be found at a bridge table during the noon hour. George ' s big grin and devil may care attitude have won him many friends in the class. We feel that George has proven himself to be an able student who is capable of upholding the name of Kawahara in the dental profession.
