ROBERT KING Bob is another of our host of injured football heroes. He has played two years of vars- ity ball at Lakeside, having earned his letter when a iunior. This year, Bob was put out for the season by one of those strange strokes of fate which strike at all of us at one time or an- other. During a practice game, some rather heavy opponent stepped on his foot, breaking it. Until this accident, Bob was an aggressive guard and contributed greatly to the strength of the forward wall. During the basketball season, Bob was out there trying, either for the iunior varsity or for his Brownell Club. When spring arrives, Bob takes to the open air and to tennis. He has already earned two letters as a netman and should odd another to his collection before he graduates. All of Bob's talents are not, however, in his brown. For two years he has been Secretary of his Club, and a member of the Senate. Bob now holds the exalted position of Treasurer of the Student Body and has done a fine iob with the school bankroll. His histri- onic talents can not go unheralded. Bob appeared in the spring play, The Mon Who Married a Dumb Wife. He was iust made for the part. ln addition to these extra-curricular honors, he has won numerous positions on the Honor Roll and Gold Star lists. Bob King is an affable, friendly fellow, whose sense of humor is phenomenal. His iokes never fail to draw a guffaw from his audience. Popular, jovial, and always friendly, Bob will be a welcome figure wherever he goes College Choice: Dartmouth. EDWARD KLOTH Big Ed is a charter member of the class of '55, During his six years' stay at Lakeside, Ed helped his classmates relax and take it easy by always being ready with a smile or o friendly iest. In order for one to know Ed, it is necessary to see him laughing. For he is a fellow who truly loves to laugh, to enioy life, and to make others enioy life also. Ed is easy- going and carefree, but, when one gets to know him, one realizes that he is the truest friend a person could have. Ed played all club sports and in his senior year turned out for varsity football. Realizing that it is practically impossible to play with no experience, he stuck to his task and helped the team a great deal by his determination and aggressive spirit. Apparently a newspaper hound, Ed has repeatedly won the Time Current Affairs Test. He was sergeant- at-arms of our class for two consecutive years. He always provided a helping hand when one needed assistance, an example of this has been his service on the Library Committee. His car, the most beautiful on the campus, was the envy of all. Ed's friendly and cooperative spirit guarantees success for him in the field of business in which the ability to get along with people is of primary importance. College Choice: Washington State.

DAVID KEIR MARTIN HOCHFELD Martin is a quiet, inconspicuous boy, friendly to all and scornful of nobody. He has met the constant banter of his more outspoken friends with remarkable tolerance and good nature. We can only admire him for his equanimity. Although Martin has many talents and is very active in school life, he has not las he might quite well have clonel thrust himself into the lime- light. Martin's achievements in his large variety of interests and hobbies serve to illustrate his competence. A member of the Drama Club, he proved himself an excellent actor in Command Decision, and She Stoops to Conquer. His paintings have won him three gold keys in the Schol- astic Arts competition. Shifting to the other extreme of his interests, we find that he skis, plays tennis, has played for several years on his club's football, basketball, and baseball teams, and is a member of the golf team. Whenever Martin took on a iob around the school lwhich was frequently . . . for he was always willing to contribute all his energy to group proiectsl, he always did the work quickly and well in his quiet but competent way, without complaints or without coming back and want- ing to know iust how the iob should be done. There are far too few people like Martin Hoch- field-too few who can be trusted to carry out a voluntary task to its ultimate and successful conclusion without complaints. There is no doubt that Martin's future is a bright one, and we wish him the best of luck. College Choice: University of Washington. For the past four years Hood River, Oregon, has had a worthy representative, Dave Keir, at Lakeside. Even though Dave tends to be a lone wolf and to keep to himself, still his efforts and accomplishments at Lakeside have not gone unnoticed by his teachers and his class- mates. Only by maximum effort and stern determination has Dave been able to overcome the challenges of studying and of living that Lakeside has offered him. Coming from a rural com- munity, Dave had a more difficult task than most in adiusting himself to life in Seattle. Yet he made the adjustment, and learned to live at Lakeside without completely surrendering his accustomed life of the outdoors. For, as a freshman, he was active in the Boy Scout troop at Lakeside, directed by Dr. Cantonwine. As a senior, he was largely responsible for the success of the newly established work squad which was in operation during the fall and spring months. Largely because of his efforts, and because of his ability to work with his hands, Dave became the foreman of the crew. Also, as a senior, Dave did a commendable iob in his work on the stage crew for the spring play. Since his arrival at Lakeside as a freshman, Dave has volunteered for many extra-duty iobs around the campus, has participated in many class proiects, and has been an active Brown- ell Club member. But the best work that Dave has done has been in the dormitory, where he took on duties and responsibilities far beyond the minimum requirements of a worthy senior. In fact, because of his many extra hours of laborious work in the dorm, Dave is now recognized by all as one of the most dependable boys at Lakeside. Because of his accomplishments in his four years at Lakeside, we feel that Dave Keir has learned to live wisely, and we see nothing but a bright future for him. College Choice: Lewis and Clark.

MARVIN LEVINSON JAMES L'ABBE Jim is one of the more robust members of our illustrious senior class-one of those fel- lows who always seem to have a ioke on his lips and a smile on his face. He is one of the longtime members of Lakeside, and has seen and done much during his stay. In the fall, Jim played football for his club, the Parsons, and served them well as a lineman. The cold winter drives all creatures to shelter, and Jim was no exception. He took to the gym-and basket- ball. He played two years of 'B squad' basketball, and finished off his career playing for the Parsons. During the summer months, Jim was seen bounding around in the outfield for both his club and for the Varsity. Jim does not, however, confine all of his activities to the world of sports. He found time to serve as a senator during his freshman year. Jim's athletic perse- verance was acknowledged when he served on the Athletic Council last year. Jim has one of those rare 'happy-go-lucky' temperaments. He sems to enioy life, and, in doing so, he helps others to enioy it also. He has a fine sense of humor and is often heard either telling, or laughing at, a joke. He finds expression for his personality in his hobby-Jazz. .lim likes Dixieland music, which is fast, lively, and easy to listen to. With such an easy-going disposition and quiet wit, Jim should go far as a businessman. College Choice: University of Arizona. Marv Levinson is a fellow who excels in whatever he attempts to do, whether it be athletic, social, or scholastic. The secret of his athletic success can be attributed to one main asset- his speed and agility. Marv played varsity football and earned his letter as a fullback. Al- though he was neither a powerful runner nor a particularly accurate passer, his end runs were a constant threat to the opposition, and his defensive work was sure and steady. During the basketball season, Marv's speed was a great asset to his Club, as he continued to annoy his foes with his fast breaks. During the spring months, Marv earned his letter as a dash man on the track team. His athletic prowess has earned him membership on the select Big 'L' Club. Marv's popularity at Lakeside is easily demonstrable. He has held at least one class office every year he has attended the school. He has a particular affinity for the office of vice-presi- dent, o position he held as o Freshman, Sophomore, and Senior. As a Junior, he was the class treasurer. ln addition to his class offices, Marv has also held the position of Veep of the Brownells, Secretary-Treasurer of the Big 'L' Club, and member of the Athletic Council. Although Marv is conscientious and rather studious, he is wellerounded enough to enioy life and help others enioy it also. He is friendly, but in a quiet, reserved sort of way. With such qualities, he should make a success of his chosen career, whether business or engineering. College Choice: Stanford. Page 17
