EDWARD LITTLETON Psi Omega Lynwood, California Compton J.C, El Camino, L.A.C.C. Ed ' s life was and will no doubt continue to be one of action. A native of Pitts- burgh he has a roster of jobs that can now be made complete with his initia- tion into dentistry. As a book salesman, shredded wheat shredder, and soldier in the South Pacific he developed into the proud owner of a prematurely grey mane. This outstanding feature coupled with his ambition will be remembered by everyone. His scholastic background was also varied and he skipped from Compton to El Camino to Los Angeles City College and then to Southern Cal. It is rumored that he was registered at El Camino and Compton at the same time. One of the old married men, Ed is the father of three children, the youngest of which was born during the sophomore year. Possessing a ready wit, friendly smile and a wealth of war stories, Ed will no doubt carry on a very successful practice. Elusive margins, sometimes ya can just wish ' em closed.

EUGENE GRAY LINDSAY Alpha Tun i ' .psilon Los Angeles, California Glendale Colleqe. U.C.L.A. Dimples Lindsay was born in Philadel- phia, Pennsylvania and soon moved from that area to eventually finish his high schooling in Ohio, Florida, and California. Gene managed to be fairly stationary for his pre-dental education and remained in this area long enough for studies at Glendale College and at U.C.L.A. It is said that Gene is a veteran of the War of 1812, having served 13 months in the Army Medical Corps at Camp Beale. Some of his extraordinary success in patient management must have stem- med from practical training while assign- ed to a colored W.A.C. unit. What luck! In civilian life, he was a jack-of-all- trades, having worked in a canning fac- tory, fruit orchard, milkman, as a drafts- man, and carpenter. From all the jobs he has had, one would assume that he was exceedingly old. He is. Even with advanced age, he managed to capture a lovely lass by the name of Marianne. Gene is probably the neatest guy in the class and abhors the slightest trace of dirt or lack of shine on his instruments. When he couldn ' t be found on the clinic floor, you were almost assured of find- ing him in the prosthetics lab shining his possessions. □ dy, cost away! Great guns, a mandibular class three.

KENNETH SADAO MASUMOTO Recdiey, California Reedley College Kenny ' s earliest recollection of life was stomping wine grapes in his home town of Reedley, California. Being used to those straight rows of grapes, it was easy for him to achieve fine, straight and sharp lines and point angles in his operative technique. However, it must be mentioned that this natural ability was somewhat hampered by the misfortune of being stuck be- tween two old fogies, namely Littleton and McGowan. However, with the afore- mentioned innate ability and a wonder- fully optimistic personality, Kenny man- aged to keep well up with the pack. Always willing to help his classmates, and with his friendly and personable character. Ken was held in high esteem by the class. Following graduation, Kenny will see active duty in the Air Force and then a private practice in cen- tral California. Always careful of margins. What ' s this drawer for? 109
