SAMUEL RUSSELL BAKER S AM is ONE or THE BEST students in our Class, and this fact can be attributed to his most outstanding characteristic--cinscientious- ness. Sam has accepted his responsibilities as both a student leader and a scholar, and he has surpassed all in his willingness to work. He has been president of our junior class, vicefpresident of our fresh' man class, and president of the Whitcomb club. He has also been a member of the Senate during all of his four upper school years, and has consistently appeared on the Gold Star and Honor Roll. Sam has won his letter in varsity baseball and has competed in club sports in all other activities. His determination has singled him out from his classmates, for there are few who attack each en- deavor with such fortitude. When Sam has Hnished the work which enabled him to be elected to the Cum Laude Society, he takes to the outdoors for fishing, hiking, or skiing. To this portrait must be added the touch that has contributed in making such an outstanding individual out of this short fellow- Sam's studious nature is pleasantly offset by his fine sense of humor. A faithful friend, an interesting companion, and a diligent worker, Sam will succeed in the future as he has succeeded in school. WIIHIIIE BALDWIN xv OODIE is perhaps the most easyfgoing member of our class, and he is certainly the most congenial. But even his carefree manner cannot assuage his determination. Woodie has appeared four times on the Gold Star, and he has served on almost all class committees. As chairman of the Student Body Dance and as Lakeside's repre' sentative to the Traflic Safety Conference, Woodie has shown a willingness to learn and to lead. In his four years at Lakeside, Woodie has participated in all major club sports, but his primary athletic interest lies with his skiing, both water and snow. In the 'Tatler oihce, this redfhaired fellow has often been seen, either sleeping comfortably, or, more often, writing an article. Woodie faces life with the most optimistic of views, and the gaiety and the friendliness with which he has met his fellow students prophesy of a rewarding future for him. Thirteen

i Twelve ,fa JERRY ANCIIES DAN ALUSIIN XVHEN SCHOOL opened in September, we found that Dan Allison had arrived from Roosevelt High. It didn't take long for him to become acquainted with the two outstanding features at Lakeside -boys fno girlsj and books. Soon Dan became wellfknown to the rest of us as a hardfworking student and an affable companion. He has done especially well in adjusting and fitting into an environment that was new to him this year. Here, he has been forced to restrict himself to club sports be' cause of the onefyear ineligibility rule and has been on the Brownell football, basketball, and baseball teams. Out of school Dan spends his time skiing and dating and helping out on numerous class projects. The versatility which he has exhibited here at Lakeside will help greatly in his study of law, and we wish him the best of luck. JERRY, AS EDITOR of the Tatler, has done an excellent job in presenting the student body with provocative and interesting editor' ials on school issues. His quiet, mature attitude towards almost every' thing will be remembered by all those who have read the Tatler. This attitude carries over into all his other activities too. It was largely through his well considered, always lucid opinions expressed in the Student Court that this new group has gained the respect of the whole student body. He is able to play a round of golf without breaking one hundred and yet not get too mad, and do his academic work so that he received respectable grades. Jerry has also participated in club basketball, appeared on the Gold Star lists, and served on the Numidian staff. His sincerity makes him a faithful friend with an individual per- sonality which is easy to like and hard to forget. Jerry's calm and composed nature will enable him to more than meet the requirements of adult life.

Frmrlvvu NEIL Blill , FRANK BAYLEY ll IJOQUACIOUSH FRANK is one of the finest and most prolific writers in our class. His five years at Lakeside have paid off for him in the form of a quick wit, trip grades and a preference towards Harvard. Frank's intellectual abilities have made it an established custom for his name to be mentioned among the recipients of the Gold Star and Honor Roll awards each quarter. His ability has been recognized hy his fellow students who elected him secretary of the Student Body, and hy the faculty, being elected to the Cum Laude Society as well as being one of the school's representatives and a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Examination. Frank's spare time at school is spent scribbling for the Tatler, working at his position as assistant editor of the Numfdian, or attempting some sport. Sailing is, however, his favorite pastime, and, typically, he is an excellent sailor. Nor does he hate girls. Frank's everfpresent smile, in addition to his proven ability as a scholar, forecast a most successful future. IN OUR JUNIOR YEAR, a big bruising fellow joined our class--fthis was Neil. ln his first year at Lakeside, Neil's athletic activities were limited to the Whitecimb teams, but in his senior year, Neil won his letter in all three major varsity sports. It was quite an accomplishment, and certainly a credit to him to be elected eofcaptain of the football team in his first year of varsity competition. He fully deserved the honor, both because of his playing ability and his team leadership. Neil's imposing stature brought him both the respect and the ofiicial recognition of his fellow students. He was elected sergeantfatf arms of the Student Body, served as president of the Athletic Council, and as sports editor of both the Tatler and the Numiclian. Neil will hest be remembered for his competitive spirit and his everfencouraging personality. lt is virtually impossible to feel de- jected in his presence, for he always reminds you of the gayer things in life.
