vonder where Coddard is? BERT LOCKWOOD, D.D.S. lOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Llniversity of Southern California Psi Omega Beaver everywhere . . . doesn ' t faze me at all! 1 What was that? I heard a crash! Oh. it ' s just Bertly testing the downstairs safety glass with his forearm, or maybe he fell out of the barrel. Oh. well — to say the very least, he is an amazing character. Not only is he an excellent student didactically, but his clinical work leaves little to be desired. A connoiseur of everything good, he enjoys coffee, cigarettes, liquor, and dancing girls. He also surfs, hunts, plays chess and loses miserably at ping pong! Jasper lllis presently contemplating the prospect of private practice around the Los Angeles area (or even Alaska) and is considering the advantages of returning to school to specialize in oral surgery . . .

I get less sleep than Worrell — have to make every minute count! VERNON LOCKHART, A.A., D.D.S. PROVO, UTAH Brigham Young University Long Beach City College Vern ' s only real problem in dental school was that he had chronic insomnia. He could never seem to sleep more than three hours a night! In a final desperate move to keep the population explosion down, Vern went to work as a fireman and subsequently as engineer on a Southern Pacific switch engine. Dr. Roy Robinson once told Vern that he did not believe that anyone could work forty-plus hours a week and go to dental school at the same time. Moral: even the best of us are sometimes wrong! For never being caught sleeping in lecture (with his eyes closed) Vern has been nominated to the very top of a list of one to receive the dental school ' s highest award, an 18-carat gold Thompson carver with the initials R.B. overwaxed from angle to angle. To Mrs. Vern Lockhart and the five little Lockharts, for your patience and helpful perseverance, we release to you full title to someone who unquestionably is to become one of the finest and most able dentists in Southern California. . . . works all night on R.R. — sleeps until time for lecture Like this Mike . . . clean living helps though!

I feel so helple when you stand over nn like this Dallas . . DALLAS C. LONG III, D.D.S. PHOENIX, ARIZONA University of Southern California Do you really go to school with Dallas Long, and can you get me his autograph? After four years no one knows why our patients ask, but some say it has to do with a sixteen pound lead ball . . . Olympics, world records, gold medals, and numerous interviews never stopped the Big D. Besides being student and athlete, Dallas has time for his family, adding three daughters to the roll while in dental school. He bought a house and found he could not prune roses as well as teeth. It has been rumored that Dallas helped Dr. Gregg prepare exams for anatomy as he always stold the show and had answers for everyone at his table. At five o ' clock on any day, Dallas could be seen pondering over acrylic, wax and compound — just doesn ' t seem there ' s room in one mouth for his fingers and these dental aids. The future is bright for Dallas and now the lust of medical school is calling as the Giant of ' 66 never seems to run out of energy — or jokes — or wind. Open your mouth or I ' ll belt you again ' 122 . . hello Tokyo — come in Tokyo!
