BARBARA SETH CLENDALE, CALIFORNIA Glendale College ' Help a ' needy DH to Las Vegas was Barbara ' s motto for many months. She toiled many hours tor the cause. No matter what the project or occasion, Barbara has always been there ready to work. During our junior year, Barbara and Karen established and maintained the record for being the first to exit from Histo and Path lab as everyone sat there amazed! In all of her college studies she has had an excellent record . . . but Saturday mornings invariably find her out riding. Included in her future plans are owning a horse and teaching as well as practicing in Eagle Rock and possibly commuting from Inglewood. It looks like ... It could be no, not another — I ' m not really up to it today! Who, me panic? . . . never! KAREN SNYDER PASADENA, CALIFORNIA Pasadena City College Karen has distinguished herself for laughability. She not only has a unique laugh but she can, and does, use it frequently. She never appears to take herself too seriously. In her senior year Karen joined the general exodus to the apartments on 34th Street, where she put fears into the hearts and lives of her neighbors by keeping two pet iguanas (Ugh) ! Last summer, she lived and worked in Laguna where she acquired a tremendous tan that made us all jealous. 234

CAROL ROBINSON TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA University of Southern California If asked what she learned at the ADA Convention, Carol might reply with important facts such as DHs are really female periodontists, and Movies with lots of colored balloons motivate interest in the DH profession. But, if asked the most outstanding experience of the trip she just might remember her winning streak at Black Jack (coming home with an additional $95.00) . . . when she isn ' t hustling, Carol gets good grades without ever struggling . . . maybe it helped to fill in the teacher ' s name as Dr. Kutie Kirschbaum on the Pedo final. Our AKG secretary is an outdoor girl. Tennis and swimming are her main interests. After a four- month trip to Europe she plans on returning to the South Bay area to work as a DH. Working at The Broadway was never so much fun! For my first act -n ' 1 DARLENE ROBINSON VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA Brigham Young University Darlene ' s change of name the summer before she entered dental school really confused the records department! She belongs to the stalwart group of fender benders who risk all on the Los Angeles freeways everyday. During this year, she has managed the class accounts with great ease. It must be her home training. Noteworthy is Darlene ' s basic philosophy for bulletin boards which stresses balance as opposed to accuracy. Her interests include a little bit of knitting — in fact a little bit of everything! After graduation Darlene and Cayle plan a trip to Hawaii to celebrate, and then work is in order.

VICKI STEGMAN LANCASTER, CALIFORNIA Fresno State College Vicki was the most non-gunner gunner of the junior year. Her unpanicked attitude during a year of panic belied the fact that she attained almost a 4.0. After all who could challenge her attendance record at the TGIFs? Never one to plan too far in advance (except for her trip to Europe this summer) Vicki is capable of doing a lot in a small amount of time whether it be planning an AKG function or the inevitable amount of studying that must be done. Knitting, a rather atypical pursuit for Vicki, has kept her quite busy this year as has disposing of the left-over food from the AKG Christmas party. Wherever Vicki goes we know that funtimes will follow. Let ' s put some life into the Ctiristmas punch . . . Unless he ' s thirtv-plus and darling, I won ' t go out. W KATHY WIEGAND WEST LOS ANCjELES, CALIFORNIA Santa Monica City College Really responsible Dental Hygienists are born, not made. They come to USC ready to be molded into a more polished form, but the basis is already there. And, if one were to pick the ideal, the perfect form ready for the molding, it would be Kathy Wiegand, or someone very much like her. She took the first year of her internship here as a challenge to be met . . . and she met the challenge. The second year has been the practical one . . . learning the techniques which will lead her to superior heights. Depreciation is a common fault of the peopled world of dental hygiene and its environs ... a fault not found in Kathy. We look to her for spontaneity and for maturity. It comes as no surprise to those of us in her class that Kathy is able to maintain scholastic ability and to raise two delightful daughters superiorly at the same time. Dental Hygiene is gaining an excellent practitioner; leanne and Janet have already discovered an excellent mother.
