I hope they make air rotors for pudgy fingers. 'An KAY MADSEN BS Las Vegas, Nevada San Diego State College Delta Sigma Delta l'm really going to miss this place! Kay came to us as a veteran of the occupation crusade in Germany. Prior to this he earned a bachelor's degree in business from San Diego State College. Upon his discharge he returned to his alma mater to take his predental work. Kay Madsen's ca- reer in dental school can be divided into two distinct eras. Places in time where Kay came under the influence of two prominent but totally different men: The Joseph Smith era lfreshman and sophomore yearsl, and the Hiram Walker era liunior and senior yearsl. Here clearly the LDS Center's loss was the 90'l's gain. Kay spent his first two years as a sort of scholastic recluse. ln his sophomore year he pledged Delta Sigma Delta and later served that organization well in the capacity of house man- ager. Kay came to the clinic with a determination to succeed-a determination which was later to be transformed into action. Kay has always been known for his high scholastic average and ready sense of humor. He'll laugh his patients into confidence and gain for himself a highly successful practice in Orange County. As one of the friendliest and chubbiest men in school, he may not have acquired the most points during his years in the clinic, but certainly accumulated the most nicknames. He has been tagged as the Great White Whale, the Friendly Porpoise, Gerald McBoing-Boing, Obie, or Newport Fats. To acquire this many titles he must have a good number of friends and a good sense of humor. His revenge lies in his own barbed retorts. Other talents include keeping a running duel with the conservative ele- ments in the class. He has the ability to sleep' till eight o'cIock and still make it to class lmost of the timel. He was a little obscure in the Technique Building but has been aggressive in the clinic giving an excellent record of grades, requirements, and points. Vital statistics include living most of his life a block from Santa Anita racetrack, undergraduate work at U.S.C., almost getting married, a member of Delta Sigma Delta, and his favorite pastime of boating and fishing. See you in Orange County Jerry, after your two year hitch in the Air Force. GERALD McCLELLAN JR. Arcadia, California U.S.C. Delta Sigma Delta

KEITH LIVINGSTON La Crescenta, California Glendale City College , Gee, isn't it beautiful. Dental School's gain was the Air Force's loss when Keith entered U.S.C. A B-36 flight engineer and a would be pilot, he spent five years in Uncle Sam's flying patrol. Keith has a very efficient home dental laboratory, where he efficiently does his scabbing. He took lecture notes efficiently and organized his clinical time efficiently. He is always pioneering new efficient den- tal ideas and new efficient methods, which work for him but nobody else. Keith is a very efficient person. Since Keith would also like to be a pilot, maybe he can combine his talents and become the flying filler or the plugging pilot . Even though he canft decide on the type of office and equipment he wants, Keith is sure to be an immediate success since he already has that touch of gray . This man is known to his closest friends as William. One has to sit back and admire this young red-headed Charles Atlas for sticking adamantly to his convictions and principles. Some of us are still trying to figure exactly what those principles may be. There has been some pressure to make him laugh at iust one off-colored ioke! This pride of Vic Tanny's is an example of what shape most of us should be in. He's a firm believer in health foods, proper diets, and no sweets. But don't you think it was going a little to far telling the Perio department that organically grown carrots would cure NUG. He's making a career out of the Navy -for two years. Good luck to you Bill, and give our regards to Chuck on that Ice Breaker. Tl1ere's nothing like a good dirty ioke. ,F I I WILLIAM LYONS Chatsworth, California NE I 1.

Jim did a three year hitch in the Navy and after- wards took his predental work at Long Beach City College. During his four years in dental school Jim impressed us all with his quick wit and easy humor-especially during lectures as he was known for popping up with some of his famous quips in the middle of a lecture. He was not very subtle with the tone or volume he used because many of his comments could be heard throughout the building. Jim's greatest thrill was in 1960 when his beloved Pittsburgh Pirates won the pennant and World Series, but, he has had to rationalize on their decline the following years. Besides entertaining us for four years, Jim has demonstrated exceptional skills in dentistry and was on the El Molaro Staff. You can credit many of the creative and witty phrases found in this book directly to him. Al came to us out of the wilds of East L.A. disguised as a Mexican. ln fact, Dr. Murphy still thinks he is a Mexican. The Turk, as he was affectionately known among his friends, displayed a keen wit and ready mind throughout Dental School. He became well known for his ability to play on words, hence the term Mizrahiisms . Al's always pleasing personality and friendliness made him one of the most well liked persons in dental school. He combined these assets with his scholastic acute- ness and managed to garner several awards-the most outstanding being the didactic award for the iunior year! He accomp- lished all of this between many trips to ski resorts during the four years. Al plans to spend a few years in the Army and then to specialize in some branch of Dentistry. With his natural assets and good sense of humor he will be sure to fare well. E t Hal tore. ALBERT MIZRAHI Los Angeles, California U.C.L.A. Alpha Omega
