' -m - mmi BM ■ ' 0: ' uSiSKiSBS ' ' ' BILL YANCEY. D.D.S. The Hog, through four years- of dental enthusiasm, never wavered in his uncompromising standard best represented by his motto plenty good enough . This standard is exemplified by his anatomically perfect zin rock squash bite temporaries, well adapted at fifteen paces. He is also well known for his theories on pulp sedation, made it a firm policy to temporize for no less than six months. Word has it that after graduation Yancey will be taking post-graduate courses in oral microbiology from Dr. Milo Don Appleman, whose face to this day is still a rumor to the Pig. Bill started off his wave of dental enthusiasm in freshman anatomy lab., by making a token appearance every Wednesday afternoon in spikes on the way to his two o ' clock starting time. Six months through the freshman year, with the S and T still a nasty rumor to the Pig, he was introduced at a party in Palm Springs to a fellow classmate of his. Unfortunately, Yancey couldn ' t have picked the guy out of a crowd until he was told the fellow was a dental student. Coming into the final year, the Hog has really come around. Often he can be seen as early as two o ' clock for his nine-thirty patient, doing a denture adjust once or twice a month. Despite his sporadic appearances, Yancey has provided a certain relaxed attitude too often missing in the dental profession. A reflection of mine: It is a triumph of reason to get on well with those who possess none .— Voltaire 1. •T?J J7i ; ' v.i:i, .■ ; iVl:■■. ' r. :■ ■ l:: ' :;-r '

EARLE G. WOLFROM, D.D.S. l,arie will always be rpmemboredas theman with the classic ku h. Throughout the halls of the S T his laugh ochot-d. And who can forget his salesmanship in our Junior year; Anybody want to buy a diamond ring? ! No matter how bad the situation, ol ' Earle always kept his smile. Even after wrecking his Cougar, and Lusby and ihe Hog. and his elbow; he kept his good-naturedness and composure and stuck with the rest of his class. So, when you see some little guy at a convention with skis under one arm and a paddle ball in his pocket, go up and buy a pencil from him.

HAROLD TAKASHI YOSHIKAWA, D.D.S. Harold was born at Manzanar, California in a relocation camp during World War H which is set in a desert landscape and ornamented with U.S. soldiers. Thus was Harold ' s first experience as being an American citizen. Soon after the war, his family moved to Venice, California where he attended Venice High School and received a B.A. in zoology at U.C.L.A. Now it is four years from the time he has entered dental school and all these past memories of his life and also the wonderful experiences that he gained from taking all the double clinics or at least rescheduling them because of no patients come to mind. Harold feels that all of these experiences cannot be ever changed but the future can be guided. Therefore, this thought once seen in the past is given as strength to all students during their stay at the dental school. Yesterday is already a dream — and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope, — look well, therefore, to this day.
