CHESLY MANOCK-Three Years Chet attended Roosevelt High for one year before he came to Lakeside. Here on the campus he participated in football and track, winning his letter for two consecutive years in both. He played in the backfield for the Lions, and was a speedy short-distance runner on the track squad. His hard, determined playing on the gridiron won for him the Inspirational Award, an honor to be envied by any football star. ln his Senior year he was elected Vice-President of the Big L Club, and Sergeant at Arms for the Senior Class. There were few people on the campus who could last more than ten seconds in the boxing ring with Chet. HUGH MATHESON-Six Years Six years ago a little, short fellow stood meekly on the steps of Bliss Hall. He was new at the school, so the Seniors were more lenient if he trespassed through that Sacred Senior Door. He would have to wait six years before he had earned this privilege. This boy was none other than Hugh Matheson, now one of the Big Gun Seniors. Today he can stand on those very same steps, and with a clear conscience. Hugh is an active member of the Hi-Y Club as well as a sports manager. His long stay in the dormitory and good record as a student and citizen has earned him an important position on the Dormitory Council. CLINTON MERRILL-Four Years In spite of his size and football frame, Clinton Merrill has been known at Lakeside for his quiet manners and for his perseverance as a student. Clint played varsity ball for two years, earning his letter in his Senior Year. He showed great drive, and was an inspiration to others on the football team. Honest Clint was elected Treasurer of the Student Body, and of the Senior Class. He was elected President of the Dormitory Council under a new system of government, and was a member of the Hi-Y Club, the Big L Club, and Vice-President of the Sophomore Class. WILLIAM MIDDLEBROOK-Three Years That blonde, quiet gentleman, who sits in a secluded corner of Mr. Logan's Chemistry class, is Bill Middlebrook. Bill is what may be termed o listener. He takes in everything, including the good grades. Entering Lakeside in his sophomore year, Bill fitted into school life well, and was elected Vice-President of the student body in his senior year. He turned out for football and track. Writing for the Tatler kept him busy. An ardent member of the Cruise Club, Bill is constantly to be seen with the Hopkins brothers, having long discussions on the subiect of motorboats.

WILLET LAKE-Two Yea rs Portland's gift to Lakeside is the indispensable Bill Lake. He played football on the varsity squad for two years until he was put out of com- mission. In his first year he was elected Sergeant at Arms of the Junior Class. This year he holds the same office in the Student Body and the Hi-Y Club. His six feet of brawn have kept more than one Student Body meeting from reaching riot proportions. Bill is a dorm boy, but when- ever he manages to get a week-end he heads for the nearest train station, Portland bound. ln track he won his letter for two consecutive years. DONALD LEEHEY-Two Yea rs As a sports manager Don Leehey was very definitely tops. He was manager of the football squad for two years, and manager of the bas- ketball squad for one. Don is another one of Lakeside's numerous dorm boys from Portland, Oregon, the City of Roses. Don is one of the few boys that came to Lakeside and made a material profit. It seems that he had a small concession in the basement of Bliss Hall, selling sports equipment to the athletes. Don made his letter for both years at Lake- side on the track team. He hopes to attend West Point Academy in the very near future. FRED LYMAN-Five Years Fred has done any number of outstanding things at Lakeside, but, prob- ably, none quite as outstanding as the iob he did in editing the Nu- midian. On the Tatler Staff he served for three years in the sports department. He was Treasurer of his Junior class, and Secretary of the Student Body and the Hi-Y. On the athletic field Fred played varsity football three years, winning a letter in his Senior year. He has turned out for track, as well as playing basketball for the Whitcomb team. For two years he was elected cheer leader of the school. It was not unusual to see him directing a howling mob, all hollering for the old Alma Mater. DONALD McKAY-Two Yea rs That big, handsome Senior that walked the halls of Lakeside for these last two years is, probably, none other than Don McKay. Besides being a popular member of the Senior Class, Don was also a capable center on this year's basketball team. He never failed to keep the class-room in a constant turmoil with his witty remarks. Don was a reporter on the Tatler as well as Advertising Manager. After graduation Don will either enter college or go into some branch of the armed forces. Uncle Sam will, most likely, have something to say about that.

BAMBY PRATT-Four Yea rs Four years of Lakeside has not only found Bamby with one of the out- standing scholastic records of his class, but as an exceptional athlete as well. He has played for three years on the basketball floor, winning his letter as a Senior. He turned out for varsity baseball during his Junior and Senior years, and won a letter for both years. ln his Sophomore year Bamby was President of his class. A number of months ago Lakeside gave all boys a current events test sponsored by the Time Magazine. Bamby had the highest grade on this test among the Seniors, and second highest in the school. He received a beautiful book for winning this contest. JOSEPH SCHENK-Two Years Many is the time that Jo could be seen out on the field, plugging away at football for the Parsons. Sleepy wasn't what might be called a fast player, but he had that fighting spirit that makes a winning team. Jo very rarely missed a varsity game, and was always one of the chief supporters of the squad. He also played forward for the Parson's Club basketball team. One of Joe's favorite sports is duck hunting. This sport is considered tops by him. It would be easy to understand this after you've had one of those delicious duck dinners when you return from the hunt. HARRINGTON sci-HPF-Five Years ' Harrington, at the completion of his fifth and last year at Lakeside, has the unique, and wholly desirable, distinction of knowing just exactly what he wants to be in later life. Of course, as you all know, Shifty wants to be a naval architect. From the looks of his free-hand drawings hanging in the hall he is going to be a first rate artist. Besides being on the brainy side in his studies, Harrington is a Charles Atlas in minia- ture. Harrington chalked up the highest score in the decathlon test while he was just a Sophomore. NEWELL SMITH-Two Years Captain of the football team, President of the Big L Club, and all- Lakeside-League tackle are the outstanding achievements of Yarrow Points gift to Lakeside, Newell Smith. But Newell will be remembered not so much for being a fine athlete as for being the big boy with a smile to match, the fellow that everybody knew, liked, and respected. Newell, by the way, is that fabulous test-tube jockey who was once found fiercely mashing the components of a powerful explosive in the same container. As to his social activities, Newell was definitely one of the guns of the school.
