Jake

Dressed in a suit and "handsome in a dull quiet way," Jake is "also a Jew" (like Ginsfarb). He looks to the narrator like "a man of infrequent speech" (unlike Ginsfarb). It's worth noting that although the narrator identifies the two men as Jews, he qualifies that by saying that "the spectators saw" that they "were of a different race from themselves, without being able to say what the difference was" (188). Jake drives the car during airshow the for Ginsfarb's death drop and death drag.
