Wicfrva Ucfefunal' PAEE10 Baa Maladledwak Bob Middlebrook entered Lakeside as a freshman and, with his quiet, unassuming manner, soon established himself firmly at the institution. For three years he guarded the hot corner on Coach Marx's baseball team. In his senior year, he won a letter in football. He held various class offices and finally was elected vice president of the student body. In terms of scholarship and all round ability, Bob was the equal of any member of the class. Raqea Wieldan Roger Nielson, a four and one-half year Lakeside veteran, has been a constant Gold Star winner, and an extremely faithful Whitcomb. He braved successfully the rigours of Senior Math and was one of few Lakesiders to do well enough on the Navy Aptitude test to qualify for a four year Navy college training course. Victor Odermat, a resident at the house, spent three years at Lakeside. It was on the athletic field that Vic achieved his greatest fame. He won two letters in basketball and one in football, and, in his Senior year, was elected captain of the basketball squad. Despite his size-Vic is only five foot eight-he was the starting left halfback on the football team. He was a member of the big L Club for two years and, as a senior, was treasurer of his class. Vic hails from Anchorage, Alaska, and anxiously awaits the summers when he can go back to the Eskimos. Martin Ramsay came to Lakeside in his senior year, a year which proved as profitable for him as it did for Lakeside. Marty was a two year letterman at Ellensburg High School. Although Ellensburg is a small town, Martin and Stewart insist it is unsurpassed. Turning out for varsity basketball, he won a starting position as right forward on Coach MarX's five, and twice scored seventeen points. His aggressiveness and backboard work were a great asset to the team, Marty was a conscientious student and well liked by both the faculty and the students. The dinner at the Dighfs in honor of the football team was memorable. The pictures in the caught the spirit of the affair.

Qeofuye luafzdfzall jaim lilalaafzeq John Malarkey is the third in the line of Portland Malarkeys to enter Lakeside. ln his two years here, John has demonstrated considerable intellectual ability and facility at collecting Gold Stars. He has not been an activity boy, but he served as assistant football manager and turned out for tennis both as a junior and senior. Malin Mcfbm 'AMarty McDougall, who spent four years at Lakeside, was probably one of the best pitchers in the history of the school. He was the ace of the pitching staff for three years. He had a wide variety of stuff, ranging from a fast ball to a very slow change of pace and including several curves, breaking either way. Besides baseball, 'AMac won a football letter. He could also be seen con- trolling the backboards for the Parsons. A longtime supporter of Lakeside dances, Marty was Hin on everything. He was president ot' his senior class. George Marshall entered Lakeside as a junior from Bellevue. A conscientious and able student, George has one serious passion, underslung and overpowered hot- rods. He is proud of his present Model A which has so much power that he can spin the wheels from a start without moving. George is interested in guns and is one of the top shots on the rifle team. 7001lft? M66 Z After seven years at Lakeside, Tom Meadowcroft managed to become involved in almost all of the school's activities. He was president of the junior class and of the Whitcomb Club. Tom won two letters as a pitcher for the baseball team, but he was always somewhat shy about discussing his batting average. Tommy was as busy with politics Cchairman of the Junior Prom, Senior Formal, and Amateur Nighty as he was with his studies. He was one of the few to win the coveted Maroon and Gold Star. A highlight of 1948 was the progressive dinner which was so successful that there was little time for the dance at the refectory. PAGE 9 .L .A2,.,LL, 'lla A' 91' ,AERA x J, lil Q' l f milf' 1998

Ian Rifqewaq Don Ridgeway came to Lakeside in his freshman year. Don took great delight in his anatomical sketches, occasionally on ties. His first three years at Lakeside were enlightened by his association with Mr. Pletz, who taught Don some German. This led to constant friction between Don and the editor of the Tatler since Don wanted to do all his articles in German. Don turned out for football and was a follower of the cinder sport. He liked to ski and prided himself on his ability to write short stories in the tradition of Poe. His grade average has been consistently one of the highest since his arrival at Lakeside. fbaae Roiinfian Dave Robinson spent four years at Lakeside. During this period, he contributed much to the sghool-much more, in fact, than most people realize. Although he won a football letter, his greatest achievements were journalistic. He worked on both the Numidicm and Tatler and his work on the latter was outstanding. He traveled to Tacoma with the basketball team during the tournament, and somehow managed to get the story of each game in the Times the following day. He spent most of his time in the Taller office and probably wrote as much as anyone on the staff. Dave is also another of the maroon and gold star winners from the class of '48. flelu Sfffzea Seniors last year turned to stare as Mr. Hendricks' physics class became a mass of electrical jargon. Center of the discussion turned out to be the newcomer, Pete Sykes. This year, he has shown how helpful this sort of knowledge is to Lakeside school life, He was soon doing the wiring for the dances, pep rallies, and other activities. His lasting contribution to the school will be a record player-public address amplifier which he has constructed for the student body. .Bean 751414 President of the dormitory council, president of the Parson Club, and vice-president of the senior class, Leon Titus was kept busy during his senior year. Leon, one of those Tacoma boys, carried four difficult subjects in his senior year and was a consistent Gold Star winner. Among other athletic achievements, he proved capable as second baseman on the baseball team and was the top hitter on the squad with a respectable .316 batting average. As well as this, he was outstanding in football, basketball and tennis. Coming here in the eighth grade, Leon has made a definite impression on Lakeside. The TATLER feuds were u highlight of the Robinson-Gutmann regime. Reaction from Franklin, Bothell and Vashon proved the TATLER was read. PAGE 11 E '. i X' SP' ,L S4 ., a Nr' lf , l I N' wifi 1908
