'Q Dr. Martin Dr. Quint Y. -1-f Dr. Koontz Dr. Maiorana OPERATIVE First semester operative of this year consisted of filling the cavities we had prepared the semester before. In short we can say that the teeth were brittle and we were bitter. No one knew, or had a concept of what he was doing or what he was striving for, so consequently the grades were determined by who had the shiniest brass rings and who had the neatest looking felt lining his box. Second semester introduced us to a shining patient who was so cooperative he would stand on his head for our convenience. Dell's was the shiniest since he gave it a new coat of paint and Chucko used hard rubber instead of stone for mounting the teeth in his patient's mouth. We finally began to understand the terms 6Vz - 2Vg - 9, 'IO - 4 - 8, 557, MOD, etc. We were really advancing now. That is, until the Payne Technic, and that is exactly what it was-a payne. All progress ceased--except the 24 hour day. It kept coming and going and we knew that eventually this steel, still, stable, stalwart patient would suddenly change into a surprised, salivating, stirring, speaking mass of uncooperative proto- plasm.

ROE TGE QLQGY It was a chilly, fog shrouded day as the two ships slithered quietly over the icy waters of the Flat lron Sea. One was the Destroyer U.S.S. Cone and the other a training ship carrying green horn students on their first simulated war maneu- vers. At the helm of the Cone was Captain Blink Brierly. He was ably assisted by his war-weathered Chief Slug 0'Grady and his young Lieutenant Dark Room Peery. These were dedicated men, and year after year turned out the best fighting fleets of our Navy. This mission was of the utmost importance in that it would prepare the students on the training ship for the brutal battles that were raging on the Clinic Straits. The maneuvers had started. However, the fog became so thick that neither ship could get her proper bearings. Brierly had a very worried look on his face. There was a blip on the X-radar screen but it was not clear as to where it was. Suddenly, out of nowhere, loomed the huge grey silhouette of the student ship. Brierly was frozen with horror. Beforeihe could yell reverse full , there was a sickening crunch as both ships met head on, each doing 15 knots. Men and equip- ment were helplessly flung forward and mass chaos erupted within the ship as the water crashed in from everywhere. The Cone was sinking fast. She listed badly and began her slow descent to Davey Jones' locker. She was lost, but her crew was rescued by the training vessel. Brierly knew that his Admiral, Knock Out Turner would be very disappointed when he would radio in his sad message: Cone fractured-Lost at sea. All hands safe.
