RICHARD H. NALICK This affable fellow has attended most of the local educa- tional institutions , including another medical school, before determining to obtain his clinical experience at U.S.C. One is not certain whether Dick ' s transfer was to rescue his attractive wife Mary from the admirers frequenting the Student Affairs Office or to facilitate his research with Dr. Langmeade. His work in Obstetrics still proved worthwhile, however resulting in his choice of specialty as well as a baby boy PETER NASH Although Peter gives the appearance of being less well- developed and well-nourished than most County Hospital pa- tients, he is one of the few people with sufficient fortitude to take on Dr. Steinfeld, Governor Wallace, the Ku Klux Klan, and the Selective Service System all within a period of two years. Peter ' s highly individualistic activities include attending Reed College, fighting for Human Rights, lab teching, playing the flute, making rabbit stew from the hapless victims of the pharmacology experiments, and interning at Highland Alameda Hospital. DONALD JOHN NORQUIST Don has a certain air of cool both on and off the athletic field, the lithe, lean figure of this superb natural athlete quietly copping the class crown in tennis, ping pong and handball, as well as gracefully descending the slopes of Mammoth. This Stanford-U.S.C. product has worked in anesthesia, lob teching, and at Orthopedic Hospital. The precision of this Nu Sig should lend toward his future practice of orthopedics. Don and pert, petite Bonnie plan to reside in Pasadena.

MARVIN LEVENSON Marv has become fully integrated into the class despite the mysterious manner in which he began S.C. Medical School as a write-in vote on the original class list. Marvin reputedly was recruited from the University of Chicago cord-playing team and was quickly turned over to Grotjohn and Grushkin for further seasoning. He once interrupted o cord game long enough to marry Nancy. After spending a summer in ophthalmology, Marv will take a straight medicine internship at LACGH. JOHNB. MAYLARD John is a remarkably self-sufficient bachelor who periodically descends from the (San Francisco) Bay area just long enough to attend classes at S.C. He obtained his B.S. from Stanford and has served clerkships at Letterman Hospital and the Radcliffe Infirmary in Oxford, England. This Nu Sig is distinguished by his rapid-fire note-taking, as well as for his quick smile and affinity for the out-doors (back-packing, sailing, camping). After an internship at County, John will study internal medicine, probably specializing in cardiology. HASSAN A MOHAGHEGH Hoss ' social progress as a recent addition to the class was impeded not so much by his spending the pre-clinical years at Wayne State Med School as by the impossibility of pronouncing his name. Hass probably lost much of his Hollywood Pres externship earnings at the Cummings Street poker parlor. Although his soccer talents remain untapped at LACGH, this Nu Sig will continue his pursuit of the student nurses before returning to his native Iron to practice.

WILLIAM FREDRICK NORTHRUP III Bill virtually epitomizes the all-round oll-American youth. A flashing smile, imperturbable geniality, perpetual buoyancy, and impeccable work habits characterize this athletic former Uclan. Bill will dissolve the partnership of Northrup and Sisel, renowned from Good Sam and Good Hope to City of Hope, by pursuing his surgery career at the University of California Hospital in San Francisco. Although Bill will be accompanied by his stately mate, Joanne, he will leave Ron his old yellow V.W. ROBERT LEE OLDHAM Stentorian Bob enshrined himself in the annals of externship history by setting the all-time record for total number of H P ' s in a single evening at St. Vincent ' s Hospital. This good-natured, loquacious chap emanates from the chemistry laboratories of U.C. Santa Barbara and the U.S. Naval Radiological Defense Lab. He maintains contact with the test tube world through his chemist spouse Susan, but Bob looks forward to a career in neurosurgery. IRWIN MARSHALL POSTMAN This suave, erudite fellow resigned his leadership of the bachelor club during the final lap of medical school, victory being claimed by an exotic miss named Bonnie. Undaunted by years of search, research (in pharmacology at U.C.L.A.), armed service, writing, fishing, hunting, and skiing. Marsh has settled into on internship at L.A. County, and may yet finalize his plans somewhere within the broad confines of medicine.
