Kenn re- ceived a BA degree at Drake University where he was a Phi Beta Kappa and a member of Beta Beta Beta (an honorary biology fraternity). Seeking more difficult bowling competition he moved to Southern California five years ago. After many months of spares he finally converted to strikes and won his charming wife Sharon 2V2 years ago. Kenn is a member of Phi D E and an extern at Good Samari- tan Hospital. When not bowling he spends time with photography, swimming and traveling. While catch- ing his breath last summer, he and Dr. Oscar Bal- chum studied the efficiency of pulmonary ventilation.

An extern at Santa Fe, Marv is on the Navy Senior Program and will probably take a Navy internship with a future in Opthalmology to follow. San Diego (of course) will be the location of his future practice. Phi Rho and wife Fepe claim him as their own. m GEORGE M.
