1923 Red and Black Superintendent H. P. Smith Harry P. Smith has been superintendent of the Lawrence public schools since 1920. Before that time Mr. Smith held a similar position in the schools of Newton, Iowa and was also a member of the facul- ty of the Iowa State Teachers’ College. He is now connected with the Department of Education of the University of Kansas. He has done much to fur- ther the construction of the new high school build- ing and to increase the value of our educational system. Mr. Smith is an ardent backer of L. H. S. and through his efforts in its behalf has won the admiration of both the students and faculty.

1923 Red and Black Hosford Pino Hill KirchhofT Boynton Grlosa Board of Education Lawrence may well be proud of the achieve- ments of the present board of education. Many citizens do not realize the time and energy that these men must spend if the high educational standards of our Lawrence schools are to be main- tained. The awarding of the contract for the build- ing and for the furniture of the new high school required experience and business ability. The financial readjustment made necessary by the loss by fire of one building added to the difficulties of the present board. The city of Lawrence expressed its apprecia- tion in a practical way in a recent election when it reelected three members whose terms had expired. Although the Senior Class has little opportun- ity to know the members of the board, yet it has felt the influence of their efforts and is proud to place this picture in the Memory Book of the last year in Lawrence high school.
