FRED LAVELL HOOPES Lambda Delta Sifima. i I ' si Phi Thatcher, Ariiona Eastern Arizona Junior College, U.S.C. Greenlee County ' s gift to Souttiern Cali- fornia was first mistaken for the tech- nique building ' s custodian of cadavers, for Fred started working his way through S.C. by lugging stiffs up to the anatomy lab. Giving up this position, he started his dental career as a rather self con- tained personage, who ' s pen name was the small drawing of a cat ; we would find it all through out notes. Though quiet, Fred possessed a good sense of humor, stating that if Dr. Ho didn ' t check off the facing for his Sophomore bridge he ' d just have to slap him around a little. When provoked and finally exas- perated, we would hear this vile curse Oh, come on you guys and the reply, Where ' re we goin ' , Fred? It was always a joy to watch Hoopes foil a denture; he would develop the most interesting designs, textures, rips and tears for each set-up — everyone an original. The flabby characte rs sitting around Fred always envied his good physical condi- tion. It was not discovered for some time that he had been an all-state footballer and basketballer at Thatcher Hi. At S.C, Fred was an inspirational player as for- ward on the Freshman Dental School basketball team as well as playing for Mormon ball clubs. Fred ' s social development (or repression) was due to his fellow hashers at the EVK women ' s dorm, where through trial and tribulation he gained an enlightened and liberal viewpoint of life and its shocking interludes. Here, bashful Fred was con- fronted with the wild women of S.C. Fred will return to Arizona but there is the indication he will forsake the family homestead of Thatcher County and find his way to that small cotton farming community. Phoenix. What ' s the emergency chair? Hoopes Direct Inlay Techni.

ROBERT WILLIAM HOBBS Alpha Tail Ep ilon Long Beach, California Long Beach C.C. Ever since that night Bob got his upper anterior chops extracted playing that sissy game of football, he had threaten- ed to take up Dentistry to get even v ith the world. Then he got booked with Uncle Sam and found that everyone else was trying to do the same thing. Bob ' s pretty easy to get along with just as long as you don ' t mention bear and do yourself a favor. Dr. Ho had him carving so many bicuspids that he finally started a small acquarium at home. As a freshman, he also excelled well in Dental Materials, but then you know how it is with the boss ' s rela- tives. Since Bob did a little dental tech- nician work in the service if might ac- count for his getting a slower start but after the third bear carving for Harrison he was well on his way to becoming one of the top operators in the class. He made A.T.E. as a Junior being top all around man. Bob was nabbed before his Freshman year was half completed by a real cutie from Long Beach named Pat and they have lived the past three years in Long Beach where she ' s teaching at City Col- lege. As this year ends let ' s all feel fortunate that we have had such a person as Bob to set such an excellent example both in Dentistry and in just plain living. Long roots, dense bone, leads to a tired oral surgeon. M •i 1 P ■ rflV V A - isT ■■■■ B - ' - jn r -d

ROBERT MARTIN HUBERT Phi Delia Thvla. Dell,, S smn Delia Alphd Tiiii Fiisiliin San Marino, California U.S.C. The perennial collegian; crew cut, pipe, Ivy League ensemble and connoisseur of fine (?) wines, who else but Bob (B) Hubert. Bob ' s free spending social days on the row and high stake poker splurges may have mirrored the potential that Dr. Rutherford saw in accepting Bob to den- tal school. What was unknown however, was that Bob always came out with more money than he started with, even on dates. As the dental school ' s answer to Bennet Cerf, Bob spent many industrious hours creating and compiling a hallmark in year books. He has shown this same in- dustry in all that he has attempted in dental school, always striving for per- fection and attaining enviable results. With what must have been an over abundance of energy, Bob created a game new to the S.C. campus known as button, button, who ' s got the button or who can guess where my bed will be tonight. The acquisition of the Deit An- nex solved Bob ' s sleeping problems so he relinquished his bedroom in the Delt garage or was it the furnace room? Spring came, love bloomed but there were no openings in the PTA fathers ' club and as Walt Disney was not re-re- leasing Snow White and the Seven crea- tures our hero threw himself to the Army ' s mercy. Here again things didn ' t go as planned and service pride went down the proverbial tubes as Uncle Sam ' s fighting branch took only fifty percent of those senior dental students allocated to it. With two years saved (?) Bob plans to associate or perhaps start his own prac- tice. With your enthusiasm, personable nature and perseverence, success is yours. That ' s a rubber dam? Keep up the constant line, they love it. 90
