Penny arcade palsy Stumbling through a maze of amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate isomerism, Kreb's Cycle confusion, cytochrome oxidase system, HendersonHasselbach Equation, phospholipids, dog kennels, rat cages, 24-hour urine collections, and intolerable diets, we gain our education for the future. "I don't like this either." "This, 5-pregnen-38-o 1-20-one would be converted to progesterone, or dehydroepiandrosterone would be converted to 4androstene- 1, 17-dione."

A child is: Screaming resistance with small veins, a running nose in wet pants, a speck on the Iowa Grid who flourishes on aspirin, rat poison, paint, and shoe polish. Fascinated by tape measures and stethoscopes, horrified by white coats, needles and tongue blades. Usually equipped with a mother who is either frantic, tranquilized or pregnant. M. EUGENE LAHEY arrived in time to save us from the impression that pediatrics is just a poorly organized philosophy of growth, development and immature reflexes. Enlightened us that children have blood as well as brain stems and that the Iowa Grid doesn't entirely replace the hematocrit tube. 33 DTR's +++ & = "Aren't children wonderful ?"

KAISER (the "H" is for humble) - undismayed by a solid wall of resentment, he enthusiastically reorganized the department, invited us to Saturday morning lectures, killed the traditional week of vacation, brain-washed us on carcinoma of the cervix, entertained us with obstetrical quips and operated on a schedule arranged around afternoon naps.

ALDER A quiet veneer was shattered by the announcement of senior examinations and Reed climbed the soapbox to become a vociferous member of the ''Three Fuskateers. •• A native of Providence, he served a Swiss-Austrian Mission and graduated from Utah State with a degree in chemistry before coming to medical school. Reed has been kept busy filling bottles in the labs and spending a summer with his favorite cardiologist. He kept internes happy by his willingness to perform lab work on Geriatrics as well as on Medicine II. Reed, his wife Joy and their three children anticipate an interneship at Holy Cross Hospital to be followed by a yet undetermined type of post-graduate training before entering General Practice. WESLEY I. ALLEN was born and raised with several thousand acres of Idaho potatoes in Nampa, ho·Never, many of his vegetable colleagues have outgrown him. He moved to Moscow(?) for four years and obtained a BS from the University of Idaho. During medical school, Wes proceeded quietly about his business seldom causing a ripple on the sea of academic routine. He spent his summers weeding spuds on the family farm, externing in Psychiatry at the Dee, and as a file clerk for Gulf Oil in Philadelphia. His extra-medical activities include skiing, counseling a young group and singing in the Methodist Church Choir. This conscientious, devoted fellow can be found in his office with the hematology department, usually asleep. Wes and his schoolteacher wife, Catherine, will travel to San Diego for an interneship at Mercy Hospital. 43 WILLIAM W. BARNEY This para 6-0-0-6 middle-aged white male plans to accept a pension from the VA and retire in June from his position as psychiatry attendant at Fort Douglas Hospital. This job has resulted in regular sleepless nights punctuated by amphetamine fits and followed by naps during all lectures, while providing an income for pablum, similac, obstetricians, pediatricians, house payments and sewer fees. With a shock during his OB clerkship, he finally came face to face with what had been his trouble all along. Bill captured his charming southern wife, April, on the first of two tours of duty with Uncle Sam. Bill will interne at the LDS Hospital and will then enter General Practice. G. LANDON BEALES This young violin playing "ham" is a conscientious objector to all forms of work. He spent six weeks of the junior year going steady with Sylvia Bottomly. Landon married his childhood sweetheart after the sophomore year, and this union has resulted in a bouncing baby girl born just prior to their senior year. Landon manages to save money by milking a cow every morning and by installing a pair of crank telephones between his and his parents' homes. His past two summers have been spent working for Madison Thomas and that quiet introvert who replaced him on the Neurology Service at FDVAH. A probable career in General Practice is planned after a rotating interneship at the L.D.S. Hospital. DAVID W. BROWN This southern philosopher with the Cedar City twang gave up driving cattle and trucks to spend four suspicious years resisting dogmatic instructors and proving that educated english is on the way out. Dave is known to have the friendliest slap and the heaviest right arm in the class. Never did a lecturer keep Dave from figuring out what he really meant, nor a person catch him without a thing to say. He married Nora, the girl next door, prior to initiating his pre-med at CSU and U of U. He spent his summers and vacations hauling freight and liquor and investigating heart murmurs for Dr. Veasy in the remote corners of the state. Dave will interne at the Deaconess Hospital, Spokane, and after a short stay with the military, plans a future in General Practice in the southland where people understand him. 44 GEORGE R. BROWN This young, semi-retired farmer from Rexburg, Idaho, drives a Cadillac, owns his own home, stereo, and color TV, and eats lots of bisquits and pancakes to help ease the wheat surplus. This most eligible bachelor completed his pre-med at the U of U, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and after two years of medical school answered the call of the farm for another year of hunting, fishing, and making money. Since joining our class in the junior year, he has become renowned for his quiet voice and his weekly lectures on syph i I itic aortitis. Upon graduation, he plans to budget his time between television, movies and a straight medical interneship at Boston City Hospital with plans to specialize in Internal Medicine and finally to settle in his home state of Idaho. THOMAS H. BROWNING The "Babe" is a Chicago deportee and is our youngest class member. Tall Tom combines efficiency with a good general knowledge to be one of the top in the class. A Ford Scholar, he graduated from the U of U with high honors and is a member of Phi Kappa Phi and Phi Beta Pi. Tom's threshold for ethanol is reputedly one of the lowest on record and his margin between unconsciousness and consciousness is extremely narrow. He is also interested in bridge, poker, preservation of bachelorhood, Jack Paar, baseball, coke bottle and other bottoms, and medicine in that order. Tom will take a mixed interneship at the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and plans a future in Internal Medicine. F. ROBERT BRYNER Through four years of medical school he mothered the yearbook, fathered a daughter and babied a receding hairline, all successfully except the latter. Born in Alberta and raised in Price, he spent a year each at Carbon College and Wayne U, graduating from the U of U with a BA. A world traveler, he visited France with the Boy Scouts, served a mission to Sweden and sleuthed for counter-intelligence during military duty in Detroit. Bob did his most effective studying for the wrong exams and spent his summers in Cancer Research, Anesthesiology and externing at Carbon Hospital. He financed schooling through Nona's work at the County Health Department and his own scut work at LOS lab. In spite of the inspiration of well-organized Peds Cl.inics, Dr. Griffin and lady doctors, he has decided against a career in Pediatrics. He, Nona and daughter will journey to Fresno County Hospital for a rotating interneship. 45 JAMES C. FACER Because of his minimal rhinomegaly he was admitted to the cardiovascular fraternity, but will have to hypertrophy considerably to replace the present cardiac kingpin. This EKG expert will take a rotating interneship at Letterman Hospital with the Army and plans on a future in Internal Medicine. Recently Jim acquired some help for starting IVs when he married Sylvia, a nurse at NBVAH, and in the same package inherited a Hillman Convertible. This Phi Beta Pi decided high school was not necessary so came to the U of U instead. He retired from his post as embryology lab instructor to earn a livelihood as the world's luckiest punchboard puncher and series jackpot winner. He spends most of his winnings on his favorite pursuit of catching teleosts. HILLIARD W. GREEN After many years of juvenile delinquency, Hilliard entered medical school in 1952. In four weeks he decided that the Army couldn't be any worse; however, having spent four years as an interpreter and cryptographer and having acquired a wife, he decompensated and returned to medical studies. He abstains from all things (except food, tobacco, liquor and sex) and has an apparent congenital absence of "Y" chromosomes. Despite severe overloading, his Volkswagen remains intact after four years. While spending last summer as an understandy of Dr. Englert (Jelly Belly No. l L he decided that he had the necessary physical attributes for becoming Jelly Belly No. 2, but his uric acid level, as yet undetermined, may not be elevated sufficiently to qualify him. Following a straight medical interneship at SLGH Hilliard plans to enter General Practice or take a residency in Internal Medicine. FRED L. GREER Secure in the knowledge that he can whip any man on the faculty, even tempered Fred went through school generally unruffled, but has been known to leave oral examinations with broken glass frames. He is Union, Utah's gift to medicine, attended the U of U for pre-medical studies, pitched baseball for the Redskins and graduated with honors. Fred toured the Far East as a guest of Uncle Sam for two years prior to entering medical school. He is currently president of Phi Beta Pi, an ardent athletic supporter, playing bridge and golf with enthusiasm, and a stable mate of Mohr. Fred plans to take Ramona to Southern California for an interneship at Harbor General Hospital, followed by a residency and the practice of a surgical sub-specialty in a warmer clime. 48 KITCHENER E. HEAD This quite, unassuming, shy, withdrawn introvert from Alberta, Canada, unhampered by his inferiority complex, managed to make Phi Beta Kappa and AOA. He avoided coccidioidomycosis while spending time in the California Desert with USAF. He took his pre-med at the U of U, majoring in anthropology. Kitchener favored Kennecott Copper with his .presence for nine years but gave up his retirement benefits for a career in medicine. He insured his life for $200,000 and then was able to enjoy head-shrinking at Provo and Blackfoot, drinking home-brew spiked with yaro, dandelion root and thistle, and camping with his family in the· great outdoors. Parents of five children, Kitchener and Sonja plan to live in Driggs, Idaho, while enjoying General Practice following an interneship at LDS Hospital. GEORGE H. HENINGER is the only member of the class to take exams with an IV running. His crash method of studying is well known: Two weeks prior to examinations, George starts an IV on himself and installs a Foley to circumvent the unnecessary. He then studies steadily for 336 hours munching an occasional Caffeine pill and drinking Dramamine Cocktails. No one can question the efficacy of this method because it gained him top honors in the class. George spent his summers in Pharmacology solving the mysteries of Carbonic Anhydrase. He has already taught his two-year-old son the first 500 pages of "Harrison." AOA George plans on packing his family (wife, son and stimulants) away to Boston for a straight medical interneship on the Harvard Service of Boston City Hospital. He will subsequently pursue his legacy in Psychiatry. E. TERRY HENRIE A product of Elsinore, Utah, this 24-year-old W /M has three small children, one medium sized wife and one large temper. Terry grew up in Panguitch and in the wilds of Las Vegas, however, remains untainted by the influence of gambling and burlesque shows, but would pay a cover charge anytime for a wild west movie. He spends many long, arduous hours perfecting the camber and resilience of his home-made bows, polishing his archery and futilely stalking the "Mighty Buck" through the sagebrush. He will be remembered as a frequent trader of automobiles and the author of the "Tripped over the Horse Dung" Syndrome. Terry spent last summer externing at Holy Cross and will stay another year for a rotating interneship to be followed by "your guess is as good as mine." 49 WALTER W. HILLER A Salt Lake City resident who with the help of his father's bookbinding business has his name in more medical journals than all of the hematologists combined. Although Walt's far from the biggest of the new MD' s he was not detered from executing a one-man reprisal on the VA ground workers following a report that they had felled a tree on his car. Even though single, Walt says that he really doesn't hate girls and that he occasionally even dates one. Medicine was a burden to Walt but he had the advantage of being able to see eye to eye with Wintrobe and Cartwright most of the time. He will grace the corridors and back halls of Cincinnati General Hospital for a rotating interneship and then plans some type of specialty training for the future. DONALD HOUSTON This southern Utah sportsman took time off from his hunting and fishing to study medicine because he "always wanted to be a doctor when he grew up." While being educated at CSU, USU and U of U, he has accumulated a wife, three children, and a badly used Dodge. A reserve commission in the Air Force financed the long hours necessary to polish his bridge game. Don spent his summers stamping out insects, keeping out of jail, and growing a red beard. He was hired to protect the "This is the Place" Monument from vandals but soon realized his chief function was chaperone for the city's young lovers. Last deer season, Don demonstrated his superb prowess by bagging a prime four-point jeep. An Air Force interneship will preceed a decision on whether to specialize or enter General Practice, a decision that will undoubtedly be made on the basis of nearby trout streams. CHARLES L. HYDE breezed through pre-med in just eight quarters, assisted somewhat by his foundation of four years at Utah State in speech. A former New Zealand missionary, Chuck dismayed the staff by his knowledge of scientific Maori. He also won an Air Force Commission through ROTC and waged the Korean War from a personnel office in San Bernardino. Always proud of the latest accomplishments of his three children, he can also quote the newest quip from "Peanuts" and the most recent "Spoken Word from Temple square. A welcome attender at any lecture, he was appreciated by the staff for his willingness to laugh at anything. He spent his summers in phthisiology and Blackfoot, his autumns playing football, winters playing basketball, and springs playing softball. After interneship at the Dee Hospital, he and Renee plan on General Practice or a residency in OB-GYN. 11 50 ~ OLIVER WENDELL HYDE A native easterner from Newark, N. J., and protege of Holmes, this jaundiced ex-naval officer received his pre-medical education on an NROTC scholarship. He won the Korean War by commanding a destroyer and then lost the missile race to Russia through his two years as an instructor at Annapolis. The blood bank is his favorite haunt and he may be seen wandering through the SLGH in the wee hours of the morning with or without gloves, earmuffs, umbrella, trench coat and galoshes. He is noted for sleeping in lectures, his quiet, c.>ncise answers to questions, his reluctance to discourse on any subject, and his shy, hesitant acceptance of ward work. After a rotating interneship at the Dee Hospital, he, Myrtle and four children plan on General Practice in the Intermountain area. C. DUANE KERR This articulate cowboy betrayed his tartan and his ancestery recently when he traded his plaid cowboy boots and bagpipes for a German vehicle. Recently, while practicing his favorite sport hunting he came upon a doe in the Uintah Basin. He "Carried" her back to civilization and wed her. Duane's leadership has been in evidence as junior class president and as a stalwart in the University 3rd Ward bishopric. Duane is known for his concise notes, penny purse with a combination lock, and his resemblence to Wally Cox, although any relationship is specifically denied. He plans to return to his northern Utah habitat as a "gentleman farmer" and if time permits or society demands, he may practice part-time medicine following an interneship at the Dee and a jaunt in the service. JOHN W. LEE hails from Phoenix, Arizona, and attended both Phoenix College and the U of U before managing to swing a BA. He preceeded Elvis Presley by a few years in the infantry but didn't win as many medals. John is a member in good standing with a perfect attendance record at the class poker club meetings, and its only member to lose holding a Royal Straight Flush. He has used his poker winnings to keep himself in new and newly painted automobiles. When there wasn't a game in the wind, he sometimes could be found at Phi Beta Pi meetings. Prior to his herniorraphy last year, he was known as Wn Hong Lo, now people call him John. John and his pretty wife, Mary, expect to return to Arizona to practice after an interneship at the VA Hospital in Los Angeles and possibly a residency in Orthopedic Surgery. 51 CHAUNCEY MICHAELSON This tall, thin ectomorph hails from the cold country of Montpelier, Idaho. Chaunce, a colonel in the first world wor monQgedtQ escapethe inf)uenzaepidemiccf 1918only to receive the scare of his life by being drafted into the Navy Air Force during World War 11.A veteran of three universities, he worked as a registered pharmacist before deciding to serve humanity in the medical arts. He is now regarded as the walking PDR and the class dope peddler. Multi-millionaire Michaelson counts among his worldly possessions a Hi-Fi tape recorder, 2 TV's, 2 cars, a home movie outfit, Dena, a 15-year-old son, a parakeet and the title of student body president. He is racing at breakneck speed to acquire his MD, interne at the Dee Hospital, and specialize in OB-GYN before his son Richard graduates from medical school. SAM I. MIYATAKE A quiet, soft-spoken vegetable grower from Gunnison who made good during four years at the U. of U. Sam is best known for his quiet manner and soft speech, but after a professor placed a chair in the hall, Sam soon developed adequate vocal power. He will probably abstain from anything surgical since he is well known for his operating room endurance and his bloodletting proficiency. Sam spent the past two summers on pathology and psychiatry and states that he prefers his pickled protoplasm post-mortem. Sam is another of the few remaining bachelors, but the rumor is that he did date a girl last summer. The Medical Center, Newark, N. J., will enjoy his services as an interne, after which he is considering Pathology as his future. F. NEAL MORTENSON Shoestring Mortenson will long be remembered for his recommended changes to the surgery department after the completion of his surgical clerkship. He is a native of American Fork where he received the biggest part of his education before coming to the U of U. In college he was disappointed because he couldn't make the Spurs, so joined the IK's instead. Neal married a former campus queen and at present is the proud Daddy of a blond, blue-eyed baby boy. His favorite pastimes are fishing, hunting, playing tennis, sleeping, presenting papers on the advantages of the epileptic, and trying to get those obstinate particles out of his hair. He and Ann will travel to Cincinnati for an interneship at the Cincinnati General Hospital to be followed by the armed services or General Practice. 52 NOEL NELLIS delineated his histories drastically" and removed fecal impactions by "manual digitalization" as a clerk on Medicine II. He demonstrated his tact by asking an acromegalic on rounds "How long have you been that ugly?", and his reserve by his hesitancy to ask questions during lectures. He is well known for his manual dexterity in the labs, his fancy foot work on the basketball floor, and will long be remembered as champion of the games, "Drop The Clipboard" and "Pencils, Pencils, where are my Pencils?" Noel is an ardent ski bum and devotes all his spare time to this avocation from the first snowfall to spring thaw. He is a native of Ogden and immigrated to Zion for pre-med at the U of U, graduating with honors. He spent his summers externing in pathology and neurology and working for the railroad. He will remain with Helen in Salt Lake City for a rotating interneship at SLGH with plans for practice somewhere nearby. JOHN M. PETERS Intelligence, organization, aggressiveness and a keen competitive spirit account for John· s scholastic success (AOA). This record is equaled only by his athletic achievements. Except for last football season when "Jarrin' Jack" Jarcho blew the whistle, he has maintained an active participation in all sports. He is also noted for occupying the vice president's box at Ute Stadium while Carolyn occupied the delivery room at SLGH. Born and raised in Brigham City, he took his pre-med at the U of U. His hobbies include bridge and impersonating physiological sounds of the GI tract. He spent his summers playing golf, brewing root beer, freezing mice in liquid nitrogen and bailing Russ Nelson out of trouble on the by-pass. A possible career in academic medicine lies ahead following a straight surgical interneship at Johns Hopkins Hospital. CARL R. PETERSON Extensive voice cultivation in the Bountiful 4th Ward choir accomplished little improvement in the quality but resulted in the classes largest vital capacity. Carl did manage to reverberate the walls of Medicine II while whipping out some chocolate malts in his Waring Blender. Carl leads Phi Rho Sigma as president and combines many outside talents with his splendid academic scholarship; AOA was his as a junior. He holds a claim to fame for his hypertrichosis thoracicis, alopecia frontalis and the most double-jointed joints of anyone in the class. Football, wrestling, photography and hypnosis are listed among his extra-medical interests. Carl, Mitzie and their two girls will take a Navy interneship to be followed by a residency and the practice of Psychiatry. 53 RICHARD R. PRICE Formerly director of the departments of chemistry and athletics at Colorado State, Dick returned to his native Utah to manage the Poison Center team, study medicine and assume his rightful position as intramural billiards king. A colorful character with blond hair, blue eyes and a brown nose, Dick spends his leisure time playing the guitar, polishing his jump shots, keeping books for the University 4th Ward and counseling Tam. He ·has somehow managed to accumulate volumes of notes while talking continuously through every lecture in medical school. Dick has supported Lynn and a baby on an Air Force pittance and appropriately plans to reward the military with his services as an interne before pursuing his interest in surgery. DEE M. RASMUSSEN Despite a tabetic gait, Dee has a negative serology which was a prerequisite to his marriage last summer. Following this event he spent the summer in Alaska eating blubber, scaling totem poles, evading bears and honeymooning in an old army barracks while working for the USPHS. Curing diphyllobothrium latum infestations was his forte. Dee gained fame that fateful day that a breech of sterile technique left him in the OR with nothing but his blue shorts studded with pink forget-me-nots. Always a serious student, he cashed in his hours of study for AOA membership while maintaining an interest in athletics. Dee and Mary will venture forth to New England for a rotating interneship at Hitchcock Memorial Hospital, N. H., and a future in a surgical sub-specialty. THOMAS H. ROSS sacrificed careers in business, politics and the movies to enter medical school and dedicate his life to the service of humanity. He was born in Phoenix, the heart of the land of sand, wind and coccidioidomycosis. Tom graced the campuses of Phoenix College, Arizona State and USC for varying periods of time during his pre-medical education. After marrying Senator Goldwater's daughter, Joan, he left miriads of other women with second best. His hobbies are bridge, poker, liquor, skiing, stereo and photography. He will take Joan and their two daughters to Torrence for a rotating interneship at Harbor General with plans to practice Internal Medicine in Phoenix, to which faction he demonstrated loyalty by taking up pipe-smoking in his junior year. 54 TALMAGE W. SHILL is a handsome baby-faced lady killer with a built-in love song (Tammy). He recently broke the hearts of half the student nurses when he took a bride with whom he became acquainted while on his clerkship in pediatrics. Born recently in Mesa, Arizona, and attending Arizona State for pre-med, Tam has made many trips home in his car, especially equipped for non-stop travel, complete with an auxiliary gas tank, relief tube and dexedrine dispenser. He excels at tennis, water skiing, controlling his temper and driving borrowed Volkswagens. He will interne in the wild blue yonder and after residency in something, will return with his family to practice in the Arizona sunshine. CHARLES B. SA,ITH Despite a good basic foundation in political science (BS '55) Chuck is a Democrat. Helen protested vehemently when he attempted to name their son Franklin Delano Smith. His background paid off in the competent performances as president of the sophomores and vice president of the senior class. He wears the stigma of post-athletic performance, coming out of the ring with a deviated septum. As an all-state third baseman, he led the Ogden Tigers to a state championship. He also won a U of U letter as a fleet center fielder for the Redskins, but his athletic activity has presently degenerated to a soft arm chair next to a good TV set. Chuck plans on continuing his sedentary ways as a psychiatrist following a straight medical interneship at Buffalo General Hospital. JERROLD C. SMITH was in charge of organizing the resistance movement against senior finals and served as an enthusiastic chairman of the panic committee. Jerry comes from Ogden High School where he was student body president in 1948. He received his BS in 1952, earning a teaching certificate from the U of U. After graduation he drove weather and aerial mapping planes through storms as Lt. J. C. Smith. Four years later the Navy decided to give the Russians a chance to catch up so discharged Jerry in time for him to start medical school where right or wrong, he has never lost an argument. He has worked diligently as business manager of the yearbook and has been a vital cog in its success. The Dee Hospital will support Jerry, Ruth and their five children during a year of interneship following which he may practice generally or study 08-GYN. 55 GENE E. SPEAKMAN A native of Provo, Gene attended the U of U for three years where he was able to grind out Phi Beta Kappa and become president of A E D. His compulsion for cleanliness prompted rubber gloves followed by a surgical scrub and Jergens Lotion at each anatomy lab session. As president of the freshman class, he cornered a job in Cancer Researe:h where he played bridge for three summers. Gene wi 11 long be remembered on OPD for his ability to remain oblivious to comments about the pharmacy while briskly completing his morning work by 3 p.m. the following day. He is one of the very few who has had the restraint to postpone the arrival of his dependents until he can support them. He and Elaine anticipate interning at the Dee Hospital and finding a small town in need of a good General Practioner. DOYLE H. TAYLOR Conscientious, credulous~ serious-minded, Doyle managed to get enough dietary and immunization history to impress his total care instructors. As a product of Cedar City, he came to the U of U on a scholarship from CSU. Doyle became an expert pool player last summer while externing at Holy Cross, and he is also one of the class' best basketball stars. Doyle pledged his allegience to Phi Rho Sigma, of which he is presently serving as money-changer. He has managed to squeeze in enough spare time during medical school years to acquire a wife, Nell, and two children. Doyle will take his internship at Holy Cross after which he will engage in General Practice or enter specialty training. :<t' ·.:;_ ~ ~a!•.'?"» .. __ .,-.-. ....,_;J·~ ~.~ "'· -0,-'"f, " )'" ~~:.w:.. ~ .; -;.•<,..J·~\91,•·\~ 'f't;.r,r t$~ t;. .... .f ·•--:K i4'~;Jf-< , vi.: '••· - .ts.., 1 .,--. : ; PAUL L. WHITEHEAD is a native Mor.monian bachelor whose major talent is the pursuit and acquisition of the coveted "A"a task at which he is singularly proficient. A Ford scholar, Paul graduated from the U of U with high honors. He is a member of Phi Beta Phi, Phi Beta Kappa, president of AOA, vice president of Phi Beta Pi, spends his spare time playing the organ, is a member of the American Guild of Organists and was selected "outstanding junior student." After Paul once casually remarked that he may be interested in becoming a professor of medicine, Dr. Wintrobe's departmental chair was suddenly equipped with double-strength seat belts and an automatic Thorazine and Gelusil dispenser. Paul will take a rotating interneship at Cincinnati General Hospital followed by a residency in Pediatrics, Psychiatry or both. 56 ARIEL L. WILLIAMS This Phi Rho Sigma got a late start in medical school after a mission to Holland and a tour of duty with Uncle Sam. Among his contemporaries he is probably best known for his whispering voice on rounds, his prowess with a paper bag, his unerring punctuality and devotion to detail. Impressed by the stories of many hours of lab work during the junior clerkships, he thoughtfully married a lab technician. Leisure activities include classical music, sleeping in class, high-fidelity, snap decisions in bridge, Helen, and ward teaching, not necessarily in that order. Ariel will interne at the LOS Hospital with possible plans for future training in OB-GYN and a return to the land of "Capone" on the shores of Lake Michigan. NELSON E. WRIGHT This AOA has a list of virtues that reads like a Boy Scout Law. Like Jack Armstrong, he is tall, good looking, softspoken, doesn't smoke, chew or cuss, is in the Sunday School Superintendency, plays M-Men basketball, dresses well, wears contact lenses, uses Mum and drives a small foreign car. He was student body prexie at Weber College, graduated from the U of U with high honors and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. Throughout medical school, Nelson has religiously gotton up early each morning for a few hours of quiet study before school. He is presently being kept by a high school physical education teacher. His future plans include an interneship at the University of Washington, some service time and "who knows what else." What ever it is, we're sure he'll do it well. WAYNE S. ZUNDELL is an incongruous combination of dimples, brains and brawn. He is a fearless and capable senior class president, equally adept at bearding bobcats, boaconstrictors and bureaucratic department heads in their various lairs. A winner of acclaim as one of Utah's foremost young mammalogists and snake keepers, he will soon culminate several years of research by presenting a paper before the American Society of Experimental Biologists esoterically relating phylogeny to RBC potassium. Wayne is no less capable on the domestic battleground, masterfully controlling his lovely wife, Renee, 500 tropical fish and three vigorous, healthy children who thrive well despite any obvious source of family income. He will take a straight medical interneship at SLGH with plans for returning to physiologic research and his first love, the laboratory. 57 Sharing in the rigors of medical education by holding down full and part-time jobs, keeping house, cooking meals and wiping running noses, a tota I of 38 wives of members of the class of '60 had provided in excess of 60 children at press time plus an indeterminate fetal population. Through the Med Wives Organization, the girls attend medical lectures, designed to help them understand what their husbands are talking about, as well as participating in bridge, sewing and literary groups. In addition, they annually host their spouses at a Halloween party, New Year's dance and Valentine Dinner-dance. "Is he talking to me?" I /' ' I 58 :~~- JI Mamma's "Well, at Med-Wives tonight. yes, but how can you tell ?" ''I could live comfortably on $20,000 a year." It's a pleasant change from hamburger.

In order to learn how drugs affect this "internal clock," SK&F scientists use a test in which a monkey must hit a lever after an interval of 20 seconds to obtain food. When he is under the influence of certain drugs, "time flies" and he misses the pay-off period by hitting the lever too late. Other drugs make "time drag" and he misses the pay-off period by hitting the lever too soon. I 72 Because one of the characteristics of many mental disorders is a distortion of the time sense, observing how drugs affect this primary psychological process may reveal valuable information that will help SK&F scientists in discovering effective treatments for mental illness.
