't.i?TT' 'ef E DODO TICS Alfred Frank Down from the rolling, rough terrain of the Hills called Beverly, via the Wilshire trail and the Fairfax Pass, came the Thundering herd every Wednesday. The thundering was kept to a low rumb- ling only by the custom-fit pigskin mucklucks which adorned their feet. These raucus renegades were not only deadly with their reamers but were verbose as well. As a means of demon- strating their verbosity each gave three lectures. Jim spent-five minutes introducing the warriors of the herd and in the lecture room was to be seen no more. Dudley coughed and rumbled about diagnosis. Al showed many eye opening slides and lec- tured on R 8. F lreaming and filingl. Bob lectured on bleaching and on how to replant avulsed teeth. Jack was there too-apioec-f tomies were his specialty. He was also the official statistician of the Herd: determining our average after all our examinations. During the second semester of our Junior year we were exposed to an endodontics lab course which consisted of filing and filling canals of teeth set up in a mixture of sawdust and plaster. Fol- lowing the completion of this intensive, true to life, laboratory course we were set free to practice filing and filling canals of teeth which were set up in bone and blood. We had entered the sterile world of clinical endodontics. The world of the aseptic technique, perforations, cellulitis, overfilling, apioectomyg and, most importantly, the direct correlation between Tuesday's foils and Wednesday's endos. Well, Dr. Glick, that first quadrant took no time at all. Dudley Glick ,,..1 l Robert Boulger .lack Weichman 63
