You push the middle valve down, the air goes round and round . . . TERRY C. ROBINSON, B.A., D.D.S. ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA University of Southern California Delta Sigma Delta 10 dwt short? How long? Faith Rube started with a barig in dental school . . . Cathy Bleabaum! This didn ' t daunt our hero though, and he was promptly back at Santa Anita, his childhood home, with Radkovich and an XKE. Anatomy and histology interrupted his social life somewhat, but a helpful Dick Reimers managed to get him through these barriers with a minimuni of effort. The clinic was a d ifferent story. Different because the Arcadia flash had given up women (at least those who attended USC), and settled down to hard, serious work in a new atmosphere. After dropping his operative box down the stairs, separating his shoulder, and geting sick in Mexico, it seemed nothing would stop him. Unfortunately, California had imports from Norway and Germany this year and TCR was diverted again! Luckily, about this time, Rabbitt convinced him thai taking the Endo midterm was pure folly and a nite at the 901 Club would be much better for his health. The next day in the Dean ' s office, no one seemed to believe that his car had broken down. By his senior year Rube had all the secrets of a good practice down pat: make an appointment at 9:00 o ' clock and show up at 9:45; make the patient think you ' re highly in demand; have the hare tell your patient you ' re sick, and then go to the track; or, the best solution of all, go to Mammoth for two weeks and don ' t tell anybody! Seriously, TCR has close to a 3.0 and has the technique and personality to be a great.dentist. Have fun in Europa, Rube.

RICHARD DARR REIMERS, D.D.S. JACKSON, WYOMING Pasadena City College Santa Monica City College Brigham Young University Alpha Tau Epsilon Dick came to dental school from Wyoming . . . Marlboro country. His continued interest in a complete and broad education has taken him to such diversified areas as BYU and Pasadena City College. The greatest asset that Dick claims is his friendly, easy going manner, that rare quality of being liked from the first contact with him. His infamous notoriety is not due to his loquaciousness, as some claim, but rather to his innate ability at discussions, his friendly love for competition, but especially for his witty, to-the-point and most-pertinent remarks about the discussion not at hand. Dick has been the most competent technician in the class, from passing along dentures in class without dropping them, to giving complexion treament to Dr. Gregg in anatomy lab. With such an outstanding record in dental school, Dick will go far in his plans to practice in Northern California . . . where he can wear Pendleton shirts, red jackets, and a long moustache, relatively free from social restriction. Darn ... I can ' t remember what the doctor said . . . minus 20 or . . .? . and 1 study four hours every night
