RICHARD H. GORDINIER Born 29 years ago in Denver, Colorado, Dick at- tended college at Alamosa, Colorado where he met and married Phyllis 9 years ago. He finally reports a child eight-ninths here which is a pretty long gestational period for anyone. Dick served 4 years as a Navy Medical Corpsman and then came back to get his A. A. and B.A. degrees in Zoology from U.C.L.A. He has been well thought of in the Class of ' 61 and served as Class Treasurer in our Junior year. In the summer months he has kept busy for three consecutive years with research fellowships under Drs. Jack Wolfe and Henry No- kada and presently the Queen of Angels Hospital is making use of his abilities as an extern. He will intern at Fresno County Hospital and plans for a General Practice residency afterwards at Ventura or Santa Rosa, California. CHARLES RICHARD GRAHAM A midwestern product of Illinois, Dick attended Oklahoma A M for two years where he was Sophomore Class President. The next four years were spent as a Marine Corps corpsman with a tour of duty in Korea — now the source of many a present day war story. Dick completed his pre-med studies at San Diego State College and while at USC has repeated his former triumph by being Sophomore Class President. A St. Vincent ' s externship and being treasurer of Phi Rho have kept him busy with a Navy internship and OB-GYN practice in San Diego appearing eminent. Wife Caroline and daughters Lisa and Erin complete the Graham clan. L HOWARD SEWARD GRAY A grand harrah with hats off to this years editor of the annual. Born October 13, 1935 in San Francisco this well-versed, loquacious young man with an A.B. from Occidental College showed the class what it means to have a liberal arts education. Howard ' s special interests are good food and The City, where he is credited with guiding two special tours for fellow classmen. He has externed at Washington Hospital and the San Diego Naval Hospital. After interning at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix, this Phi Chi plans two years in the Navy, followed by an OB-GYN residency and practice in Arizona.

r ' - S m . r CECIL J. FOLMAR Slight, thoughtful, well read and an expert on medi- cal economics. Jack admits to being on Army brat. He spent several childhood years in China and at- tended Huntington High School and Pasadena J.C. Usually quiet, he surprised his group members by knowing more articles than Dr. Manning (which is no small feat). He is the reverse of the usual am- bitious young man as his fondest hope is to be able to junk his Cadillac and buy a small car. His intern- ship at Tripler Army Hospital in Hawaii should be enjoyable. (He does not swim, surf or sunbathe.) He does plan to take his wife Mary Beth, rumors not- withstanding. ROBERT JAY FUTORAN This twenty-three year old Phi D E, a native of Brooklyn, New York, moved to Fontana, California twelve years ago. From Chaffey Union High School in Ontario, Fute migrated to UCLA for his pre- medical studies and while there earned two letters in soccer. During medical school Bob worked on various research topics including breath analysis with Dr. Oscar Balchum. He leads a very active life and among his outside interests he lists baseball, bridge, extension 1716 and Lady Luck in Havana. Bob has worked as an extern at St. Vincent ' s Hos- pital and future plans include an internship at LACGH. Although specialty plans are undecided, he hopes to practice in Southern California. RICHARD LOWELL GOODE Born In Los Angeles, Dick attended the University of California at Santa Barbara where he was Sopho- more Class President and in his senior year was President of the Associated Students. After obtain- ing his B.A. in Zoology, Dick arrived at USC and continued his politicking by serving as class SAMA representative, local SAMA president and this year was elected National Treasurer of the Student American Medical Association. A Nu Sig, mucopoly- saccharide research has claimed his summers with a future practice in Internal Medicine in California appearing likely. Wife Marcia and red headed daughters Allison and Melissa round out the Goode group. '

JACK GREGORY This fwenty-nine year old M.D. claims Medford, Massachusetts as his birthplace, but became a na- turalized Colifornian in 1946. He was an under- graduate at UCLA where he obtained his BA degree. He continued with his graduate studies at the Uni- versity of Hawaii and the University of Pennsyl- vania in the Department of Microbiology adding MA and PhD degrees to his name. His main research endeavor was the field of microbial genetics. His plans of professional bachelorhood have been con- siderably altered by a Persian beauty, Hasmik. As an active member of Phi Chi, he has also found time to extern at St. Vincents. Residency plans are undecided, but the future holds an LACGH intern- ship and Southern California practice for Jackson . DONALD L. HALL Though Don was born 29 years ago in Donnellson, Iowa, he eventually moved to California and gradu- ated from Grass Valley High School. After a 4 year Navy hitch, which included a broad tour of Japan, he studied pre-med at San Jose State before enter- ing use Medical School. A natural for politics, Don was a student council member during his Sopho- more and Junior years at S.C. An internship at Orange County Hospital and an Anesthesiology residency are included in his plans. Hunting, fishing, and building a sportscar are just a few of his pastimes. STEPHEN D. HERMAN Southern Californians will perhaps be overjoyed to learn of the establishment of another radiology practice in the near future. Unfortunately, an idyllic tropical internship in Panama, several fun-filled years in the navy, and the formality of a residency will result in a slight delay. Fortified with an A.B. degree from U.C.L.A. and his M.D., Steve plans to plunge into the future with a critical eye, a sense of humor, a pregnant wife, and an unpretentious spirit. It has been predicted that this 25-year-old fellow ' s ability to reduce all things to absurdity will shortly be extended to include himself. -4S -
