KENNETH OYE Santa Maria, California '95 Allan Hancock College - 1 .E ., X, Yes, I have my hair styled. An Air Force veteran, Kenny hails from Santa Maria, California. He was employed by the largest dental laboratory in the city. They had one employee-him! Ken began his dental career as a technician in the Air Force. Here he earned his wings by mak- ing dentures that would fly! After Ken mastered the technical side of dentistry he came to dental school and mastered it as well. He became famous for the Oyeball technique which he utilized in all his work. Kenny was well known for his set-ups. He used to set up and study all the time. Studying and hard work finally paid off for Ken, as he won the technique award in the Freshman year. He tapered off after this lexcept for the El Molarol but managed to graduate with ease. Ken plans to practice somewhere in Southern California. Rennie came to us from the smog bound confines of San Marino. He has an inventive and curiously scientific mind. The father of the enamel pearl, early researcher in the cold soldering technique , and stewardess quality control expert for various airlines are but a few of his achievements. Rennie began his college career at Washington State College with veterinary medi- cine as his tentative obiective. However, he changed his goal to dentistry and came to U.S.C. after a year up north. Here, he affiliated with Beta Theta Pi Fraternity and began a continuous series of escapades which won't soon be forgotten. Along with his numerous outside activities lathletic interests which range from football to iudol, Rennie is aggressive, ambitious, and has a sticktuitiveness which will serve him well, both in the Air Force and later in private practice.

THOMAS OSTMAN, BA Yorba Linda, California University of the Pacific I f , . Please! not another of your lousy iokes Pat. Tom is a man of infinite wisdom, ideal iudgment, and he also does good dentistry. He has done much with his years and this wizened fellow has had many experiences before entering dental school. Tom was a member ofthe U.S. Water Polo Team in the Pan American Games, a graduate of U.O.P., a veteran Navy pilot, a fine water skier, and a formful snow skier. Possessed of a brilliant mind, Tom has been content to popularize the adage of C for cool . His fine work has distinguished him amongst his classmates, though. He enioys a few nice cold beers every now and then, good scotch anytime, and Friday nights always. His pet peeves are left wingers, people who ask questions in class, and prosthetics. After graduation, Tom plans to set up prac- tice in Lynwood. He'll commute from Yorba Linda where he has his new home, family, and boat. It happened twenty-four years ago. Some say it was a blessing-yet others, well this remains to be seen. As the maturation period progressed we found that this individual had certain pleasures that only a few enioy. Encouraging this individual to put down his bacon sandwich and go to High School we found there was no method of allaying the ideals of this soon to be Dental Student. Relying entirely on an electro-mechanical device termed Snooze , our future dental student started his way toward his ultimate goals. We're not sure what the cause is, or was, but, somehow this device would fail and our distraught student would have great difficulty in making the 8:00 o'clock lecture. Once in attendance he was attentive and alert. Normally he would scribble notes, contribute to the sign-up sheets, and do his daily tasks in order. But one day a question concerning crown and bridge pressed beyond containment. We're not sure exactly what it was, but we recall it was in regard to the Ho Diamond or pulling rings in water baths. After this classic expression of attentiveness our aspiring student looked forward to the challenge of the day. This is, in short, Douglas Robert Oswell. We expect his endeavors and future plans will continue with as much success as he has had through our brief but expanding acquaintanceship. His plans include a two year visit with Uncle Sammy after which an office on the Blvd. lt has been rumored if Doug does 20 or more canals he'll be awarded a pair of custom Endo Shoes . Maybe I should have gone into business with my DOUGLAS OSWELL Los Angeles, California U.S.C. Alpha Omega

igfdwln T MR? iw' . Q DOUGLAS PRATT Burbank, California Brigham Young University ,fl , 't Madam, how many times a day do you pass water? Doug, known better to his friends as the kool, kalm, kollected, kid is a dentists' dentist. A perfectionist all the way, Doug has distinguished himself in dental school, a new method for glazing porcelain iacket crowns, cohesive foil in bridgework, how to patch a III foil for a check and membership in ATE. He went to BYU and resides with his wife and daughter in Burbank. Doug occasionally takes off from his studies to participate in his favorite sport of golf. Golf is his favorite because it is one of the few sports in which sixty-plus ladies can actively participate. Since there's always an old gal on the course he can play against, he never comes home a loser. Well, almost never. He plans to set up his practice in Northern California, preferably around the Sacramento area. Franklin Roosevelt Quon, the Chinese New Dealer, studied at Los Angeles State College prior to attending U.S.C. Frank also had a two year vacation at Uncle Sam's expense, and according to rumor it was during thise period that F.R.Q. filled out his lucky frame with delicate army chow, and several thousand fortune cookies. During the hectic years at dental school Frankspent most of his leisure time with rice balls and bowling balls. We've seen the rice balls but as a bowler Frank really stands out. He was the outstanding Chinese member of the Japanese-Jewish All Stars in the Dental Students Bowling League. Always per- sonable Frank is planning to give some lucky girl a break and eventually plans to get married after graduation. He plans to go into private practice in the Los Angeles area. man before? - -1 FRANKLIN QuoN T Los Angeles, California gg 1 U.S.C. we Vr W X.- 4 F What's the matter? Haven't you ever seen a fat China
