MARK FREDRIC KAUFMAN Mark ' s dorsal aspect was a familiar sight slipping anxiously to a ring-side vantage point of a laboratory demonstration or aggressively accosting an instructor after lecture. Mark obtained his B.S. from the University of Chicago, and has done research in kidney disease in preparation for a career in urology, following an internship at County Hospital. He has been active for two years collecting the money from Phi Delta Epsilon members, and, along with his social-worker wife Fran, plans to reside in Southern California. MICHAEL T.KENNEDY Mike ' s sincere unassuming manner and carefully controlled aggressiveness, plus the rare combination of a highly retentive memory and incisively analytic mind, all integrated with incredi- ble efficiency provide the formula for Mike ' s enormous accom- plishments, both academic and otherwise. This pragmatic Trojan is as comfortable presiding over the Student Council as camping at favorite hunting and fishing retreats with helpmate Irene and Mike Jr. Although he spent a summer pursuing Lukocytes, Mike ' s future will be in thoracic surgery. WAYNE R. KIDDER Serendipity accurately classifies the meeting of this urbane ectomorph with d cute young nurse in the halls of County Hospital. Wayne and Joan plan to remain at LACGH for internship and internal medicine. Wayne ' s two summers with Dr. Reynolds gave this Nu Sig a slight edge over Hollis in the liver disease polemics. Wayne previously attended U.S.C. and Stan- ford.

J, STANLY JOHNSON, FR. Stan is uniquely capable of transcending his beat world and adroitly cooling it with the remainder of society; he is sensitive to the inequities of the latter, and at once sympathetic yet critical of the former. One almost suspects that the thinly- clad, lean figure whose motorcycle speeds away from his recondite pad quickly changes uniform in a telephone booth before emerging as the white-coated, urbane Dr. Johnson. This proficient brewer graduated from Amherst College and did graduate work at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His skirmish with the Selective Service System is preceded by internship at County. GEORGE E. KABACY George ' s energetic enthusiasm in every endeavor is well exemplified by his globe-spanning research activities. For a year following graduation from U.S.C. George was in exile at as unlikely a location as the North Pole; proving his adaptability to extremes of environment, he spent last summer on the hospital ship HOPE in Guinea, Africa. In the interim he found time to ploy tennis, marry Mary, dodge Hodgman, fence with Spears, and decide on a career in Ob-Gyn. ROBERT KADAS This unobtrusive charter member of the KKKK has demon- strated his individuality by making his internship at County Hospital straight pediatrics. Bob ' s talents extend from be- friending little children to putting the soft restraints on George. An active member of Phi Delta Epsilon, this recruit from U.C.L.A. is one of the few men whose wife shares his interest in baseball, since Margo works for the California Angels.

STUART LANSON Stu has spent much of medical school bugged by his tropical fish and hooked by his hobby, photography. U.C.LA. furnished him with experience in renal physiology, and his diminutive better half, Felice, who has decided to change swimming pools, while Stu interns at County. This Phi D.E. is inclined toward E.N.T. and getting drunk at parties. KELVIN LEE A scholarly if not compulsive student out of the chemistry labs at Stanford, Kal has the distinction of being able to settle his chess disputes with the use of judo; he claims a brown belt in the latter and a draw with Bobby Fischer in the former. Kal, also known to converse with Dr. Berne in Chinese and discourse with almost anyone on Viet Nam, will travel to Sacramento County General for internship. MAYNARD LEVENICK For such a corpulent fellow Maynard has an uncanny ability to steathily stalk the subject for his ubiquitous camera or implant himself in the front row of a demonstration, thereby obstructing all views except that from the ceiling. His patient write-ups are often so voluminous as to be mistaken for the old chart. Maynard probably improved his chess game during Operation Sacktime for the Jolly Green Giant. This Uclon also interns at LACGH.
