CLARENCE J. VANDRUFF Hominy, Oklahoma Compton College PSI OMEGA George is one of the many Okies in our midst. He arrived in L.A. late one night back in 1942 and is still looking for the way out. Nobody has yet been able to figure out why he was tagged with the handle George. After a stretch in the Navy, George went through pre-dental at Compton J.C. Upon entering our Institution (?) he was one of the most ardent sup- porters of Fixed Pros. Lectures, Dr. W. W. Woin- wright, and the Pros. Lob Technicians. Weekends, George con be found racing to San Diego. Rumor has it that he has a Queen down south, but he insists he visits his old Navy chief. A regular guy and hard worker, George will be a real credit to his school and an asset to society. HAROLD P. WALLING Orr, Oklahoma Pacific Union College Hal was christened in Orr, Oklahoma in 1925 and as soon as he could reach for the steering wheel of his family ' s Essex he was stirring up the dust for California. The Army life didn ' t change Hal apparently, except to stimulate his interest and efforts toward humanitarian dentistry. He has helped reduce the spastic inclinations of fellow students with his wit and humor since joining the Line Up in September of 1 951 . During our career at the Molar Mill we could always see Hal with a red-hot Exacta in one hand and the Thunderbird brochure in the other. It is rumored that he is initiating a nationwide Thunder-dent Society. Hal is nine years married to his wife. Dean, who incidentally is going to be half owner in the sheep- skin, so it is rumored!!! Boy, can we handle it!

KEITH NEAL TUTTLE Long Beach, Calif. Long Beach C C, U C L A XI PS! PHI This Don Juan of the Zip house has never been known to be seen with the same girl twice. Keith is a tall thin resident of Lokewood who is sure to be a success in dentistry. He is a sincere student and a talented operator. Cuttles ' biggest goof came in his sophomore year when he washed the bicuspid preparation of a finished bridge down the drain. He ' s a loyal Zip even to the extent of marrying off his sister, Janet, to a fraternity brother. Uncle Sam will direct his efforts upon graduation, after which he ' ll probably hang up his shingle in Lakewood. V Biiiiiafl I I AL VALDES Los Angeles use PSI OMEGA, SIGMA NU Unique, in being rudely dragged away from the front lines of the Korean skirmish to attend our school. Gawd the power and influence of that man — McNulty. He rolled into school two weeks late with hot carbine in hand only to replace it with hot handpiece for the next four years. He has used this two weeks late alibi ever since. As a sophomore Al achieved fame as Soapy Valdes when Dr. Ho inspected the sophomore bridge. Al used so much soap filling in margins of his bridge that Lever Bros, declared a special dividend that year. When not missing lectures Al could be found haunting the female houses on the Row and Julies looking for foil patients.

ARTHUR WEISS, A.A. Bronx, New York UCLA ALPHA OMEGA, PHI SIGMA DELTA PHI ETA SIGMA, PHI SIGMA Art was born in 1929, in the Bronx, New York. He made his first mistake by not staying there. He attended Fairfax high school — this was his second mistake. Art attended UCLA where he was a member of Phi Eta Sigma, the freshman scholastic honorary society, Phi Sigma, the biological honorary society; and Phi Sigma Delta social fraternity. Art met his wife, Gloria while attending UCLA. He is affectionately known as old Blood and Guts. Every morning his face is one bloody gosh from that sleepy attempt to shave and every nite his ulcers are popping from a pleasant day at the molar factory. Art enjoys tennis, sailing, and lying about his work. He does two things exceptionally well; one is smoking other peoples ' cigarettes, the other is drinkina coffee. SPENCER WILLENS, B. A. Santa Monica UCLA ALPHA OMEGA, ALPHA TAU EPSILON Spence was born in the little pueblo of Los Angeles on a sunny June day in 1 927. After grad- uating Los Angeles High School he put in a hitch in the Navy. He attended UCLA where he was a member of Phi Sigma biological honor society. He graduated with honors and a Bachelor of Arts in bacteriology. Having attended UCLA he will give use and 14 points on any given day. Since 1951 dental school has drawn his time, effort, eye sight, health, and hair, leaving our hero bloody but unbowed; well bowed just a little bit. He has served his fraternity as vice president and as parliamentarian. His hobbies are swimming, watching TV and drawing. Spence will probably practice in the Los Angeles area and is soon to be associated with a swell girl. Harried Mohr, who will help him to the success and happiness that his personality and ability will claim for him.
