JOSEPH LOUIS ROMOLO Joe IS living proof that nice guys con still succeed in medical school. U.S.C. ' s own |unior wine-maker has soberly spent his summers in his father ' s vineyards, after clearing the debris from the most recent class party. This unassuming Nu Sig will follow the crowd to LACGH for internship before deciding what and where he will practice in Southern California. MICHAEL ROSEN Mike is widely known as one of the quickest wits in the West. His incessant flow of quips eased many a tense moment for his classmates, and provided welcome relief from the tedium of seemingly interminable lectures. No one could quite comprehend Mike ' s continual retreats back to his native Arizona until one summer he returned with a sweet, dark-haired lass. Mike will take Judy, his cello, guitar, Pomona education, and dog-eared Survey manuals back to the Phoenix desert for internship at St. Joseph ' s Hospital and residency in pediatrics. PETER ROSEN A veritable human dynamo of perpetual motion, the Rabbit IS one of the rare people capable of drawing upon his encyclopedic storehouse of factual knowledge with sufficient alacrity and precision so as to parry successfully leonine Dr. Reynolds. Pete also possesses a not inconsiderable athletic aptitude, wide range of interests, and congenial personality that belie his scholarly habits. Originally from the East, this U.S.C. grod will intern at Johns Hopkins before entering on academic career in internal medicine.

BEN PRINS That Ben is a Prins of a fellow in more than one sense is evidenced by his unselfish if not self-sacrificing efforts to keep unity within a class of individuals especially in his capacity as Junior Class president. Ben and his favorite nurse Sharen have blessed the world with one little Prins, and another in the offering. Fortified with his lab tech experience at Cedars and a Salerni precepforship in pathology, this University of Redlands graduate will emigrate to Fresno County Hospital for internship, mixed with some hunting and fishing. ALBERT EDWARD RAITT, JR. Al managed to depart from Northern California just long enough to complete the curriculum at S.C. Medical School. He attended University of the Pacific with his wife Sue, and before returning to the hunting and fishing grounds up North will stop off at Presbyterian Hospital in San Francisco. Summers have been spent in his field of interest, psychiatry, at LACGH and Mendocino State Hospital, as well as at local tennis courts and golf links. JOSEPH REISS Although Joe ' s relationship to the medical publication beor- ing the some name is purely coincidental, as was his attendance at some of the lectures, he is easily the class socialite. Only car trouble limited his activities which extended from Palm Springs to the Beverly Hills Hotel to Hawaii. This former U.S.C. undergrad- uate spent summers in psych and at the beach; he boycotted the Matching Program but finally contracted with Highland Alameda in Oakland for internship.

BENJAMIN L. ROSIN Big Ben found himself a notable in football circles by going to medical school and a celebrity in medical school by playing football at Southern Cal. Ethical behavior became assured when this amicable behemoth represented the Honor Council. An enthusiastic Nu Sig, Ben found to his liking the Pathology Department as well as on English nurse, Elaine. He can now look forward to on internship at County and a new addition to his family. R. EDWARD SANCHEZ This most prolific member of the class is a natural for pediatrics considering his captivating personality and small budding practice; however, internal medicine in the San Gabriel area will undoubtedly claim him. Ed met his charming wife Beverly at Stanford University, and will intern at L.A. County. As senior class president, student government officer, intramural sportsman, extern, and laboratory technologist, Ed has worked tirelessly throughout medical school. JOHN ROBERT SCHOTTLAND A cloud of aromatic pipe smoke, scattered paperbacks ranging from Plato to John Stuart Mill, stacks of Annals or Internal Medicine, the profane mutterings of his annihilated adversaries, the collective tremor of intimidated neophyte clinical clerks, and the doctrinaire pedagogics emanating from o kneelength white frocked figure signify the presence of Dr. Schottland. The impact of John ' s powerful rhetoric and ency- clopedic knowledge will next be felt by internists at Kings County Hospital in Seattle.
