He not only has ten toils, tie wants to pay for them! Cerritos College, U.S.C. B.S. Biology Sties a dog, but she ' s terrific ' Just what I need, more wine! GUMBARE - friend, companion, buddy, confidant. What better word to describe a dental student who would red shirt himself just to stay with his lab partner. Between us we could make a fortune selling honor roll projects that had been displayed as far away as Downey and Anaheim. Ross ' God-like hands were inherited from Papa Joe and his academic acumen was developed from sibling rivalry with Brother Leon. His clinical swiftness stemmed from an inborn love of speed, such as fast boats, cars and women (one did the 100 in 9.5 sec). His love of excitement was exemplified by his flirting with disaster while water skiing parallel to the surface, making 90° turns in his BMW at 60 MPH, finishing gold margins with Joe Dandys and explaining to CHIPS what their responsibilites are to the drivers of California. Gumba was considered one of the missing (on the) link of our class, but during the absences this C-lab hot dogger did a good job of eliminating his handicap. The young Godfather was an all around hit man - in baseball, basketball, tennis, fishing and hunting. Referred to as the Italian Stallion, Rosario was considered a real lady killer; most likely due to his ability as a dog trainer. Nutritional balance has been a major factor contributing to his success, some examples include donuts by the dozen, pasta, plenty of liquids at TG ' s, 901, Numero Uno or Busch Gardens and tuna for lunch. ' It ' s not a foil, huh? Ross ' quiet manner, empathetic compassion and helpful insight were qualities he shared willingly with all class members. His sincere generosity, dedication toward excellence and professionalism will aid him through a successful future. Ross will be associating with his father and brother in a dental Organization that will offer tooth ' tection.

S«i --- ■ ' rv ' Trim the moustache, easy on the sides. ' Hi Big BoyI ' Slow Bea. That ' s the name she couldn ' t escape for four years. She may have never been the first to finish during a special clinic, but her work Is always good and uncompromising even under the intimidation of time limits, instructors or her lab partner. In addition to the exhausting pace of school, Beatrice worked on several yearbooks and participated in other student associations, committees, and staffs. She spent many weekends out of town treating low income children in Calif, and Mexico, and paid her way to treat children in Israel during her summer break. Bea is not totally absorbed by dentistry. She loves the outdoors and the sea. She is a distance swimmer, skin diver, and photographer. To me whe was always a warm smile and a positive greeting in what seemed to be a power plant of negative energy at school. I was also one of the few who saw her in rare form after a couple of memorable mobile clinics. Beatrice is a highly qualified health professional who has not learned to see dollar signs roll when she looks in her patients ' mouths. There are many people out there who need her care.

Just a little more off this contact. Wouldn ' t you like a piece of this action. B.S. University of San Francisco, Student Advisory Committee, Student Body Treasurer, Scfiool New spaper Editor, Psi Omega Fraternity, L.A.D.S. 4 2 d. . . 3 i - ' 9 9? . ' . . . yarJ7- f A 7.o- ' x x : ,a ?7-o When Carol arrived in el lay, USC didn ' t know quite how to receive her. During the first weeks in school, practically the whole upper classmen student body had cruised by to check out Gomez and tried giving her help and advice. But, somehow, she managed to keep their hands off her work (and her body), and proved to a hot operator. With all these men in school, we had a pretty good time! (Thanks to all you guys who turned out to be pretty good friends, and phoo-wee to those that made our lives miserable.) Carol is also a very thoughtful, and wise lady. During that hectic sophomore year, she knew when it was time for a break. I ' m going crazy! Hey, George, Howard, Tina, let ' s go to Cholo ' s for a margarita! Well, thanks Carol, I really needed those drinks! Carol is an extraordinary woman. She was always organized, and always working hard to meet all those deadlines. She also found time to play an active role in student body government, mobile clinics, and be the editor of the Tongue Thrust. In between all that, she was flying off to San Francisco, Hawaii, and keeping her men happy (you know, cooking and stuff like that). You could count on Carol on having fun too. She was always ready to have a good time, dancing, and partying . . . and mostly eating (Boy! Did we make out with alot of freebie dinners! Carol was always watching out for us.) Carol! How did you manage to fly through clinic and run around in those high heel shoes of yours? That always amazed me. Carol ' s plans include the U.S. Navy for about four years, and a practice in San Diego, and of course, her man Mark. Good luck Carol. I ' m sure you will be successful, and always enjoy the best that life has to offer! (I ' m really sure) Thank you so much for your help, a dear friendship, and lots of good memories. Sincerly, your lab partner, Tina. What do you mean you want to grease my articulator.
