PAUL JOSEPH WRIGHT Delia Signtd Delta Phoenix, Arizono Phoenix College, Arizona State College Being of the progeny from the Wes- selian state of Arizona, Fireball Wright has been a great class mystery. He claims he has been nowhere other than California or Arizona, he sports a gen- uine fourteen karet Texas drawl — you don ' t suppose Tillie had anything to do with it, eh pardneh? Best known as one of the easiest going members of the class, Paul has never been known to rant and rave about that Damn Canadian Ghost, or to tear up and down the clinic floor looking for an instructor to check the prep so foil could be obtained before noon. He did not gripe when the hydrocolloid units were out or the only good vibrator broke down — well, hardly ever. Paul ' s pre-dental was taken at Phoenix College where he played basketball and in general was quite a campus wheel, so much so that he was elected King Football at one of the college events. Here he met his wife, Dawn, who was Queen Football. This we can under- stand but Paul — King Football — how the heck? After the enchanting day in June the king plans to return to Glendale (a sub- urb of Phoenix) and practice with his brother, Vernon, who is a graduate. From what we hear success is inevitable. We will never forget mild but mighty Paul. In the beginning I created anatomy. Time for a coffee break, Paul. C i: 151

PHILIP DAVID WHITENER Delta Sigma Delta, Alpha Tau Epsilon Van Nuys, California Fullerton Jr. College, U.C.L.A. The terror of Orange county waltzed through the pre-dental subjects in good fashion at Fullerton Junior College and U.C.L.A. In fact, he even held a few stu- dent jobs down at the same time. Al- ways playing it cagey — Phil married a cute blonde D.H. named Jo so he ' d have a good income while undergoing the toils of dental school. Rumor has it that Jo also did all his lab work. Phil ' s popularity was immediate and he was elected class president in the Fresh- man year. As we all agree, he got us off to a great start with a lot of good activities and functions. It was obvious right from the start that this fellow wasn ' t going to break any records in scholarship — he just didn ' t care to. However, in between water skiing, snow skiing, volleyball, fishing and all the parties at the fraternity house, enough study was sandwiched in to get better than average grades. His feats of elocu- tion in our class have been unequaled and many wonder why a B.S. has never been awarded him. Such tales you ' ve never before heard! A small Whitener arrived in February by the name of Jeff Philip. This addition rounds out the family to four, the fourth member being a blue eyed Siamese cat named Tiki. After two years in the Army, Phil will probably open a practice in Orange County where we guarantee you will get excellent dental service without spend- ing much time in the chair. If ya can ' f set up, polish ' em up. Please, madam, your tongue! iss u 150

ROSS EISEL YAMAHATA Los Angeles, California P.J.C, L.A.C.C, U.S.C. Ah so! More fertilizer. This seemed to be Rosco ' s stock answer for many per- plexing problems, particularly those that many of his gardening clients asked him about their pet flowers. Ross has never said whether his advice did any good or not. During his formative years, the time of the big war, Ross served as an inter- preter with the U.S. Army in Japan. It was there he met his wife, Ruby, who was also from the states working for the government in Japan. From his ex- periences in the Army he picked up a wealth of half-way plausible war stories. Besides his wife, Ross is the proud father of an honest to goodness replica of Hop- Along Cassidy — known to strangers as Kelvin. Aside from his family, Ross has many interests varying from surf fishing (no one has seen him catch any- thing) to spending hours describing the mastery of the Japanese male over his household; although his friends give a different version. His claim to fame how- ever, is the preparation of a delicate Japanese dish called Suki-yaki; it ' s a shame he never knew just how good those dinners really were. He always seemed to get carried away with his other duty as Chief Saki Sipper. Now to turn to his more serious side (this being boy dentist), Ross had it made from the start with his infinite patience, desire to do good work and his ability to bail the other guys out of trouble. He has inspired what came to be the war cry of the men around him — ALL THE WAY WITH EISIE. Los An- geles can look forward to having an outstanding dentist and a great person in their community when Ross arrives. I ' ll have a round of that. Do you have menstrual difficulties? 152
