Picture Of The Day
Children watch as USC dental student Dallas Long examines a 5-year-old girl in 1965. Long won three NCAA titles for USC in the shot put and was the gold medalist in the 1964 Olympics. He set 11 world records and also won a bronze medal in the 1960 Olympics (UCLA Library).

Ahhh, The USC Dental School. I have a prize Gold filling that I had done at the USC Dental School circa 1963.
Are you should this photo is from 1965. Looking at the clothing and surroundings it looks like a late 50s early 60s photo.

Cool. Dr. Long was my family Doctor in Orange County when I was a kid in the 70's. I remember him as a kind gentle man.
He attended USC from 59-64, winning Olympic Medals in the 60 (Bronze) and 64 (gold) olympics in shot put.
I remember one time my father sliced his foot open with a saw, Dr. Long had the biggest hands I've ever seen but he was so skillful with the sutures, it was a work of art.
