ALAN MORITZ RICHARD MOORES To avoid the use of an extraordinary triteness, we shall not say that Dick is tall, dark, and handsome. However, we must admit that he is. Dick is outstandingly quiet and unobtrusive, even his voice is neither harsh nor loud. He has, however, no reason to be so modest and inconspicuous. This well-rounded boy is remarkable mainly for his organized mind which is a paragon of common sense and logic. His practical mind has turned his interests toward the sciences, especially chemistry, and has made him one of the best mathematicians in the school. In spite of his quiet personality, Dick is not one of those people who are noticed by few and known by few. In his six years at Lakeside, his pleasantness has gained him many friends, his lack of rowdiness has won him the respect of practically everyone. Dick's basic sincerity and straightforwardness make him a loyal and true friend in whom infinite trust can be placed. His classmates have demonstrated this respect by electing him class treasurer twice and by making him a delegate to the Athletic Council. Dick is a good athlete, and, although slightly hampered by a knee iniury received in his sophomore year, he has represented the school in golf and the Parsons in all sports. It is well worth also mentioning that Dick plays a good game of tennis. College Choice: Wesleyan. Will: I won't give anything away. When Al came to Lakeside in his freshman year, the spirit of our class rose sharply. This is natural, for Al has a certain ioviality about him that makes it utterly impossible for anybody in contact with him to feel glum. This good-looking fellow hails from Sun Valley, so, logically, skiing is his main interest although the list of scholastic, extra-curricular, and other sports activities in which he has participated is practically endless. As a senior, Alan was elected president of the Ski Club and has done more than anyone else to make the Club an active and thinking organization. We all admire Alan's contribution to the ski team on which he has been a valuable asset, as well as his admirable success on the tennis team, on which he won two letters and, in his iunior year, helped to carry to its best season in the history of the school. When A wasn't skiing or playing tennis, he helped the Whitcombs out both in sports and in his position as vice-president of that club, and served as secretary of the Dormitory Council. Displaying his wonderful school spirit, Alan participated in so many outside activities that he was awarded the President's Medal, an accomplishment about which Alan could be proud if he weren't so modest. Al's amiability has won him the hearts of the entire school, both students and faculty, and we thank him for the boost he has given our class. His deep feeling for humanity insures him success as a doctor. College Choice, Whitman. Page 19

D. KEITH MADER Keith Mader is perhaps one of the most skilled athletes in Lakeside's history, but, alas, also one of the most unlucky. In football, he has played first string for four seasons and has earned three varsity letters. He missed his fourth 'L' only because of a shoulder iniury, which sidelined him for most of the season. During the past four basketball seasons, Keith has been in there fighting, either for the 'B' squad or for the varsity. Track, however, is his best sport. Keith is an extremely able sprinter, running the 100 yards, 220 yards, and broadiumping. Through his athletic accomplishments, Keith has been one of the few four-year men in the Big 'L' Club. He also holds the position of Sergeant-of4Arms in both of his Clubs, the Big 'L' and holds the same office in the Brownells and the Student Body. The right man was picked for the job, Keith is outwardly a calm, rather quiet, boy, but beneath this tranquil exterior, lies a fighting heart. Most small men are fighters, and Keith is no exception. It is this fight, this will-to-win, that has made Keith the athlete that he is. ln all of his undertakings, he seems to follow one rule: play hard and never quit. Keith has a warm sense of humor and enioys a good laugh. He is a fine friend in school, and a quiet warriar on the field. Perhaps one day we will see him in the Olympics, Till then, the best of luck to Keith in any of his endeavors, whether athletic or otherwise. College Choice: Washington State College, Whitworth. Page I8 MICHAEL McGOLDRlCK Mike, who has been both an actor and a stage manager for the Drama Club, a senator, a representative to three outside conferences, and twice president of a Junior Achievement com- pany, is well known for his organizing abilities. The little time Mike has been left by his duties as assistant editor of the Numidian he has devoted to his pioneering in both the Speakers' Corps and the Honors Course. Even so, if Mike could have had his way, he would have spcnt most of his time skiiing or fishing, the sports which he enioys most. ln spite of his being one of the most important members of the class, Mike's amusing, but very human, failings have made him the target of much good-natured ioking. Mike's passion for numerous, well-chosen words in both speech and in writing, made many people wonder why Mike ever took the Public Speaking Course. Mike's stupendous lack of success as a poker player was a source of amusement to all. However, the person most often found laugh- ing and ioking at the expense of Mike McGoldrick is Mike McGoldrick. Although Mike is one of the sensible, serious men of the class, his fluent, well-phrased, and logical conversation is now and then enlivened by dashes of subtle wit. Looking over Mike's personality, accomplishments, and hopes, we can practically foretell his future. His success either as a lawyer or in govern- ment service, where he may be led by his interest in world affairs, is insured. College Choice: Amherst. Will: l leave my poor poker-playing ability to whoever wishes to play with me.

JOHN OVERTURF John, treasurer of the Brownell Club and Gold Star winner, is a big man both physically and socially. Everyone knows John, the boy with the slightly stooped, but immensely broad shoulders. These shoulders and his natural strength, as well as determination, won John a place on the Lakeside football team and made him a letterman. In view of this, it is strange to realize that John also excels in the lighter and more agile sport of tennis. lt is even more surprising to learn that he has a knowledge and understanding of current events great enough to have earned him a first place in the Annual Time Current Events test. John is noted and liked for his steady flow of wit and mild sarcasm levelled at some political figure, or, more frequently, at a teacher. We will always remember John for his ready humor and friendliness, but underlying seriousness of purpose and loyalty to personal ideals. John is interested in a wide variety of fields, and, as anyone will testify who has engaged him in an argument, he can defend his point of view with an overwhelming flow of facts, well thought-out contentions, and a clear line of reasoning. John's good humor and the slowness with which he rises to anger, as well as his ability to express himself, certainly have influenced those who know him. We are sure that John will have the best of success in whatever field he enters, just as he has found immediate success and popularity in his two years at Lakeside. College Choice: Whitman. HARTLEY PAUL Hartley Paul is one of the few members of our class who have achieved both athletic and scholastic excellence. Hartley is known mainly for being the 'Mr Ski' of Lakeside, and one of the best skiers in the state. He has written numerous ski articles in the Tatler and is a three- year man on the ski team. Last year, as a iunior, he won first place in the combined Junior American Legion and Washington State Ski Meet, as well as placing high in the various city contests, lt was mainly Hartley's work that led Lakeside to the second place berth in the city. As a senior, this versatile boy the skis the downhill, cross-country, and slalom races, and iumpsl, has been voted vice-president of the Ski Club and captain of the team. His other athletic accom- plishments include one year of varsity football, club football, and numerous water skiing cham- pionships. Scholastically, Hartley's grades have remained consistently high, and he has won several Honor Roll and Gold Star awards. Hartley is a friendly fellow who seems unaffected and unchanged by the bustle and roar of the outside world. His character is frank and open, and he seems to be utterly incapable of any bitterness, sarcasm, or concealed irony. Many times the class has guffawed uproariously Will: I leave my life-time subscription to the Post Intelligencer to Dr Parrington at one of Hartley's rather naive questions. Although he is certainly not obese or overstuffed, Hartley certainly can eat! We only gape in amazement, and we wonder where he manages to put his victuals. With all the snow waiting for him in the mountains of New England, Hartley the best of luck at Dartmouth College. College Choice: Dartmouth. Will: l leave the untracked expanses of powder snow at Stevens Pass to Jay Baker and Denny Watt. Page 20 we shall wish
