John Hampton - Right ; Cleopatra - Left ; and Keith Sanders - Right.
Observe that the only single names belong to Famous 'Queens' and all the other names start with either 'J' or 'K'. Also the Surnames start with 'C' , 'D' , 'H' & 'S'. That gives us J=Jack , K=King , C=Clubs , D=Diamonds , H=Hearts & S=Spades.
In a standard deck of cards, All the Jacks face Right, All the Kings face Left, except the King of Spades, and two of the Queens face left and two face right.
So, John Hampton = Jack of Hearts = Facing Right ; Cleopatra = Queen = Facing Left (Two Queens are already facing right, so this one has to face Left) ; Keith Sanders = King of Spades = Facing Right. |
