Dave was born in New York but moved to California when he was quite young. He served in the Navy in San Diego but never went to sea, except for the one exciting ride he had on the Coronado Ferry! Because of his innate love of the water and being a beachcomber, he will probably be the first S.C. Dental graduate to set up his practice on a thirty-plus foot sailboat, which is his idea of utopia lthe sailboat, NOT DENTlSTRY!l. Dave is one person who will never have any financial worries -since he doesn't believe in worrying about money. Of course, his wife may end up with a nervous breakdown! Al l've got a pain right here Rosenblum will long be known as the man who lost his only argument during the winter of 1937. Al will usually be found 9:00 to 5:00 playing bridge in the lounge. One can always tell when Al is playing for he always starts the game with the statement let me tell you guys iust one thing . Al's last year was one of gloom, because he found out that the Giants were better than the Dodgers and that the Rams were lousy even with Purv. Red eye Al came from Culver City where he was a basketball star. He put his talent to good use as a member of the famous Dental School Basketball Team which lost the championship to the School of Architecture after ten hard fought rounds of fisticuffs. Al plans to go into private practice in a building with many M.D.'s so that he can find many sympathetic ears. we . in it Looks like you had a big breakfast kid! ...Q .

,rr ,. RAY RANCK Los Angeles, California U.S.C. Tho orgy's at the Institute tonight. Ray became known to his fellow classmates following his biochemistry sermon on amino acids. This outburst so inspired Dr. Bavetta that he rose, shouted halleluiah and proclaimed Ray the new Biochemistry god. Ray has been an inspiration ever since, so much so, that many of his classmates considered him a pest with the variety of pranks he initiated both in class and in the lab. ln the summer of 1961, Ray was married in the Mormon Temple and spent his honeymoon at beautiful Carmel where Ray was unable to get near his wife during th-e entire two weeks honeymoon-poison oak. Ray plans to practice in the service for the next two years and then go into private practice in the Los Angeles area. From the hills of North Dakota this would be Eskimo gave up his igloo to come to the paradise of Stockton, California where he was raised. After a brief vacation in Korea he enrolled in college with the ambition of becoming a dentist. After his accept- ance to the U.S.C. Dental School he and his family traveled to Los Angeles to see this school of which they had heard so much. As they drove by Jefferson and McClintock they could hardly wait to get off skid row and into the exclusive area in which they knew S.C. would be located. One hour and several broken illusions later they stood in the heart of the slums and the front door of U.S.C. Since then, Fred has taken nothing for granted. During his school days here he has thinned some on top but what he has lost in hair he has gained in weight. This guy is known for his enthusiastic attitude and large drops of perspira- tion during times of stress. Judging from his success this must be a winning combination for him. Up to this time his main claim to fame was shaking hands with President Kennedy, but, June will see an even bigger one-his D.D.S. degree. I should have scientifically invested this.

n x RONALD ROWE Saratoga, Callfornla San Jose State College Psi Omega Gawd, I hate this place. Ron, the splinter Rowe, will long be remembered for going through dental school from one crisis to another. During one of his daily crises he tried to charge a huge Detroit car with his tiny Volvo. He lost. Despite his slimness, Splinter displayed a huge capacity for consuming large amounts of Corbeys -his favorite booze. During these bouts he always managed to re- main composed and sophisticated. He said he acquired these traits while undergoing rigid, social training on San Francisco's Barbary Coast. On onememorable Psi Omega Bear Hunt, Ron was seen to lose his sophistication. This was no dgubt due to the mountainous altitude coupled with air sickness. Ron's maior crisis came during his senior year when he commuted nightly from the Carabean to Hollywood. The story is a closely guarded secret, but there seems to be some connection with the Oral Hygiene department. Despite all these crises, Ron always managed to meet each deadline, and still find time to help his buddies, partici- pate on the Dental School Basketball Team, and conduct study sessions at Eve's each Friday evening. If there was ever a leader of the Wandering Figueroa Tribe , it would have to be Dick. It's not that he doesn't know where he is going, but it's iust that he doesn't know where it is. Some would call him cool, yet some wouldn't. But those who really knew Dick realized that under this quiet unassuming exterior was a heart of a lion, the tenacity of a bulldog, the quick and cunning eye of an eagle, and the hands of a natural artist. Dick had an easy time at school as a bachelor, but then he got married in his last year he realized the responsibility he had in taking care of his wife. This worried Dick, but after a while he got over this and went on doing his fine dentistry. After leaving school, Dick plans to go in the Army and then return to Los Angeles to retire on what he has. As Dick graduates there is one guess that comes up. Did anyone really know Dick? I'm not sure, but I think I lit the wrong end? RICHARD SCHWARTZ Los Angeles, California U.S.C. Alpha Omega if Jef
