Dr. Edward L. Novotny greeted us as superintendent of the Lawrence public school system when we first arrived at LMHS and it is with genuine regret that we cannot have him present to bid us farewell as we complete these three years of study and play. The students of LMHS lost a good friend and a fine leader last sum- mer when Dr. Novotny died unexpectedly. He was a true friend; kindly, warm, and sympathetic. During the three years he was superintendent of the Lawrence schools, he devoted his full energy to the improvement of the school sys- tem. The overwhelming vote of the people for a great expansion in the physical plant of our school was. to a great extent, a vote of confidence in Dr. Novotny. He contributed more than any other one man to the pro- gram which in a few years will bring to this community one of the finest high school buildings in the state. Those of us who arc leaving Liberty Memorial High School today will forever be grateful for the privilege of knowing this great personal- ity who devoted his full energy to making our lives happier and more successful. The class of 1950 proudly thinks of itself as a class sponsored and guided by Dr. Edward L. Novotny. 6 STUDENT COUNCIL The rap of a gavel sounded through the crowded room, and in a moment the hum of voices subsided and another Student Council meeting was under way. At the front, the executive committee was seated. Jack Brand, president, called the meeting to order and Secretary Phyllis Nehrbass read the minutes. As the meeting proceeded, the representatives took notes of the announcements they were to make when they returned to their home rooms. This year the first constitutional amendment, chang- ing election of Student Council officers from the 15th week to the 13th week of the second semester, was ratified. The first Student Directory since before the war was printed and distributed through the Student Council.

Delegates from 30 schools attended the discussion periods held in the morning and afternoon. At noon they ale lunch in the cafeteria, afterward joining LMHS students for a noon dance. Varsities, the ‘’Gel-Acquainted Party,” and the tra- ditional “Christmas Formal.” were all planned and car- ried out by the Social Committee of the Student Council. This committee was headed by Margaret Black, senior representative. All assemblies were under the gavel of Stanton Ball, vice-president and chairman of the Assembly Committee. Activitiy tickets, the passkey to all LMHS activities, were in the bailiwick of Pal Davis, who was chairman of the Activity Tickets Committee. Fire drills and all other services to the school were guided by Jack Brand, president, and his Sendee Com- mittee. All correspondence, from fan mail to past due bills, if any. was handled by Phyllis Nchrbnss who ably took over in mid-semester when Joan Neuenswander moved from Lawrence. Phyllis headed the Secretarial Committee. All publicity for the Student Council was taken care of by Sophomore Representative Marilyn LeSuer and hci committee. Thus the activities of the Student Council were car- ried out. and with the guidance of Miss Cora Davenport, sponsor, the Student Council efficiently carries on, smoothing the way for both students and teachers.

Chosen from a group of 20, the cheerlead- ers were: Nancy Gilchrist, senior; Jean Denny, senior, Margaret Barr, senior; Char- les Shreffler, senior; and Phyllis Springer, sophomore. The uniforms this year were white sweat- ers with a red emblem on the front, white skirts or slacks, and black jackets with “Lawrence” written on the back.

The three were selected from a group of 30 girls by the football team. The selection of queen was made by the student body. The coronation ceremonies were held a week later between halves of the Argentine game. Pep Club members holding colored balloons formed tw'o lines from the throne in the center of the field to the sidelines and the band formed a large L. H. S. in front of the throne. The queen dressed in traditional white was escorted by Jack Brand, president of the Student Council.

Every day, the journalism students could be seen gathering news for the paper. The editor, John Gagliardo. and assistant editor. JoAnna March could be found editing stories for thought and plausibility, or writing head- lines for articles. After John and JoAnna had read the copy, proofreaders Joan Squires and Martha Lawrence went over the copy to check the spelling, sentence structure, and punctuation. After proofing, stories were sent to the Journal-World, the printers, for galley print- ing. The copy printed in galleys and the ad- vertisements in column form were then sent back to the journalism department for ar- ranging on a dummy page and for final proofreading. The dummy and corrected gal- ley were then sent back to the Journal-World for printing as you see it. Co-advertising managers Pat Schrader and Robert Edmonds were in charge of selling advertising to the merchants. Joyce Pine, the business manager, was in charge of all book- keeping and billing.

The little two faced man on the official Thespian emblem which depicts Comedy and Tragedy, laughed and cried through the year with the Thespians. He laughed until he cried through “The Boor,” a one-act play sponsored by the Thespians. A Russian play, it is the story of a young woman widowed by an unfaithful husband. She lives alone with her servants and her mourning until a gallant artillery officer in- vades her life. He jars her out of her morbid resignations and the outcome is a melodramatic success. Broken chairs, shattered drinking glasses, and a cringing servant added to the pseudo-opcratic atmosphere. The two-faced little man struggled through the trials and tribulations of redecorating the south dressing room with the theatrists. The Thespians tinted the walls light green and painted the floor dark green. They added make-up tables, two long make-up mirrors and generally brightened the gloomy outlook of the room. The troop, numbering only 13 at first, journeyed to Kansas City to sec “The Red Shoes. The club went as a group to the plays at the University. Two of these were: “The lYiale Animal, and False Cods.” Officers were: president, Rocelyn Roney; vice- president. Martha Lawrence; secretary-treasurer. Sally Six.

This is a story of seventeen young women living from day to day hoping that their “break will come and they will get their big chance in 3 hit play. Sally Six, who played the lead, ably portrayed a young woman who was continually called upon to for- get her own troubles to boost another’s morale. Through- out the play the audience got some good laughs from the accents and antics of Martha Green, a temperamen- tal Russian pianist, Ruth Kieffer, who played a dancer with Broadway aspirations, Shirley Spector, the fly in the boarding house ointment, and Gaylcnc Kennedy’s deadpan humor. Marlene Stayton achieved several high moments by her portrayal of a girl who finally commits suicide. The performance, directed by Mrs. Marjorie Rix, required a crew of 31 plus the 25 cast members. The Junior class is to be commended for a fine evening of entertainment. BEHINO THE SCENES AT THE JUNIOR PLAY Lucille Woltct.

In the gym gaily decorated with pennants representing near-by schools, party-goers participated in square and social dancing as the annual first party of the year got under way, the first Friday night of the school year. At in- termission “Four Sinister Seniors” entertained with a skit, “Zanzibar,” in true Shakespearian style. Colored slides of school personalities and activities climaxed the evening’s entertainment. Two varsities were held during the football season following home games. The most elaborate of these, the “Homecoming Dance,” was in honor of the football queen and her royal court. Enthroned before a back- ground of gaily colored footballs and the Lawrence and Argentine pennants, she was presented a small white football autographed by the members of the team. “Peanuts! Crackcrjacks! Budgets! Budgets! For the first lime in several years LMHS had a carnival party. Each home room sponsored a project with prizes for the best three. Mrs. Marjorie Rix’s room’s freak show copped first prize, Miss Pearl Carpenter’s room’s Bingo stand took second, and Miss Iva Belle Harper’s room’s “Turtle Hill Downs and German band placed third. Other rooms had food stands, telegrams, movies, sponge throw- ing, and others, even to two extra editions of the Bud- get put out by the journalism staff. Now up the gangplank and ahoy mates! We’re off to the WPA (Women Pay All). The highlight of the evening was a floor show, something new to WPA. An “LHS Pinafore” that would have startled Gilbert and Sullivan found sailors singing and dancing before an effective setting of a red bar with a navy blue back- ground. Refreshments were later served from thjs same bar. From his crow’s nest in the top of the gym, Ad- miral Leo Lion looked on while Pep Clubbers and their dates danced. Clever table decorations ami dance pro- grams further carried out the navy theme. Check your shoes at the door! A Foot-Ball, (some- times called a “sock hop”) was held this year in celebra- tion of the Lion gridsters all-victorious season. Flattered by the attendance of several “Hollywood stars,” the seventeen graduating seniors of the team and Coach W'oodard were given seals of honor while sultry sirens, vivacious singers, musicians, dramatists, and a trio of actors entertained. The boys themselves finally took over the program and sang “Mother Pin a Rom? on Me.” Seventeen girls did just that plus a token of their appreciation, “Wipe Off That Lipstick, Man. Coach Woodard also received a bouquet of ’mums. Square dancing and a “Broom” dance added to the festivity. Into a world of lacy snowflakes, a sparkling new moon, white Christmas trees, and reindeer leaping among boughs of cedar, came girls dressed in beautiful formal of bright holiday colors and boys scrubbed and shiny for the annual Christmas formal. Greeted by two small angels who gave out velvety covered programs, the students danced to the music of Dick Stewart’s band that was cradled in the crest of a moon twinkling with holiday brightness. Seated Itehind two old-fashioned coach lanterns at intermission, dan- cers heard a chorus sing “The Twelve Days of Christ- mas. Margaret Black, senior representative on the Student Council, was in charge of all parties. Bill'� right itn't Itiot wicked, i� it, Alder� � Onlooker� ore Money Krimmin- ««� . Ruth Kite.

ACQUIRING KEYBOARD CONTROL, the Illustrious stu- dents of Mr. Domes' typing class bong out timed writ- ings to the tune of recorded music furnished by the keyboard (typewriter) moster. The seventy-one piece Liberty Memorial High School Band, under the direction of Jack Stephenson, spent first hour every Monday, Wednesday and Friday preparing for their many public appearances during the 1949-50 school year. The versatile organization was a snappy outfit on the football field and gave a number of polished performances in concert programs. Making football trips to Shawnee-Mission and Ot- tawa, in addition to playing at all the home games they provided the proper atmosphere and spirit. Many in- tricate formations were displayed in lire entertainment they furnished during the half-time intermissions. After much hard work the band again competed in the KU Music Festival, giving an excellent account of itself. Officers were elected early in the year and a group of councilmen was set up to represent the band members in deciding where the band should play and in helping Mr. Stephenson with the affairs of the organization. “Indiana State March” was chosen at the first of the year as parade march and was used during the year whenever the band was called upon to perform in pa- rades or at football games. Orchestra: The melodious strains coming from room 200 every Tuesday and Thursday were produced by the 53-picce orchestra under the baton of Jack Stephenson, music su- pervisor for the entire Lawrence school system. Music was furnished by the organization for three school plays Stonding (Left to Right): Jock Stephenson, (director), Solly Six. Borboro Anderson, Bob Smith, Kenneth Olson. Phillip White. Bock Row.

This year the orchestra traveled to Ottawa for an exchange assembly February 21. On February 28 the Atchison high school music department presented the assembly and joined with that of LMHS for an evening program. Again this year the orchestra competed in the KU Music Festival. A few of the favorites worked on by the group dur- ing the past year were Russian Sailor’s Dance,” “Star Dust,” by Hoagy Carmichael, White Christmas” by Ir- ving Berlin, and a Choral-fugue by Bach. From the band and orchestra arc drawn many en- sembles and soloists which perform at the various events throughout the year and in the annual music festival at KU.

Besides appearing with the other choruses in combined events, they did special numbers for education week, and entered the competition at the KU music fes- tival. “The Moderns” is a special girls’ trio which works as a modern ensemble with the Serenades. . They per- formed at a number of varsity dances during the year, and in a specialty number in “For You a Song. They also accompanied the dance band to Winter General Hospital in Topeka for a number there. The girls’ sextettes were two of the small vocal en- sembles which were organized this year by Mr. Nelson. director. They appeared at a number of school functions as well as before several civic organizations, and entered the district music festival at KU. Two of the most important musical events of the year were the two music clinics held with Ottawa and At- chison. In these clinics the schools combined groups for a very effective night concert. This year, the entire vo- cal music department, supplemented by the orchestra and the Serenaders, took the trip to Ottawa where they presented an assembly program followed by an afternoon preparation for the combined evening concert. Atchison sent a sizeable group here to which Lawrence played the host. Gull vcxtoMc L01� Illlott, Joanne Longoneeker, Pol Schmcdcman, Ina Moy Brcwttcr, Phyllit Brown, Neva Ketchum.

Lights! Camera! Action! And now onto the stage of our yearbook steps one of the leading charac- ters—the LMHS Pep Club. The Pep Club is open to any girl who wishes to join and to obey the constitution. The membership this year consists of over 200 girls. The object of the club is to promote school spirit and to arouse interest in athletic activities. Each mem- ber either buys or rents a red jacket which she wears every game day with a black skirt. The jackets cost a little over six dollars and may be sold back to the club upon graduation. sophomores The first task of the pep club this fall was to put on a pep assembly before the first football game. Soon after that the initiation for new members was held. The Junior Chamber of Commerce helped the club sell the Lawrence-Haskell combined football season ticket. On October 22, they held the annual WPA (Women Pay All) party—that is, the girls asks for the date and is the escort all evening. Along with the Student Council, the pep club as- sisted in the crowning of the football queen.

The camera rolls and the spotlight now turns to a new star in high school, the D.E. (Distributive Educa- tion) Club, which is made up of On-The-Job-Training students. This new addition to the school activities at LMHS has completed many worthwhile projects and has been of fine service to the school this year. The club's purpose may be called a three-fold one; the study of sales methods, related social functions, and the learning of correct parliamentary procedure carried on in business meetings, while it promotes Distributive Education classes throughout the state as a part of On- Thc-Job-Training. President of the D. E. Club is John Wright; Vice President, Gilbert Baker; Secretary, Darlene Votaw; Treasurer, Eugene Blaylock, and Sponsor, E. J. Logsdon. Although there are only 14 members of the club big plans arc being made for the future as this group is an affiliate of the state organization of D.E. Clubs. The LMHS D.E. Club sent representatives to the state meeting this spring. Other parts of their activities are talks about the various phases of selling by business men who arc in- terested in the club; and the field trips taken to large department stores such as Macy's in Kansas City to study their display, personnel, selling and advertising practices. firn low, left to fiQhl: Dorlcnc Voto� .

First, his excellent basketball team played each Wednesday in the city league. The chorus sang for club functions such as the Father and Son Banquet. This banquet, as well as the initiation for new members, was held in the cafeteria. Our star also took many field trips to neighboring farms to study the various boys’ farm projects, and spent a day at the American Royal in Kansas City. At the state F. F.

BOVS GYMNASTIC CLUB Screams echo through the gymnasium, girls close their eyes in horror; to the un- initiated, it might look like a German Concentration Camp, but no — it’s just the 35 members of the Boys’ Gymnastic Club “strutting their stuff.” Any boy who possesses some ability and has a genuine liking for gymnastics may belong to this club which meets every Wednesday. These agile boys who work out on the high and parallel bars also do many a flip and tip on the mats. They go far beyond the usual scope of a physical education class, learning intricate stands and balances. The group performed during the halftime at home and out of town basketball games. “I believe that in another year,” said Dad Perry, “we will be able to take up where we left off this year by putting on more shows, and expanding our repertoire.” teeth ready tor instant user What is she doing there. on '� o o o o o n d o vo no o o o P ,c o n 36 RIFLE CLUB Stonding: Sponsor Richard F.

One of the first activities was the fall picnic, which was open to all UMHS girls. This acquainted the new girls with the organization, und was an invitation for all to join. The Mother and Daughter Tea. held October 20. gave the mothers a glimpse of the Y-Teens at work. The program preceding the Tea was a new-member recogni- tion service. The Dad and Daughter Banquet acquainted the fathers further with the organization, although no special service was held. After the banquet, many of the girls took their Dads to the LMHS-Atchison basketball game. From a Y-Teener's standpoint, the social highlight of the year was the big spring party when each girl brought her best boy friend as her guest for the evening. A snappy skit was presented by the girls during the in- termission. Heart Sister Week also ranks high on the Y-Teen schedule. To start the week, each girl draws a name of another Y-Teener and writes notes to her through- out the week. At the close of the week she sends a small gift along with her identity.

This, the only hoys’ religious group at LMHS, meets every Thursday morning in the cafeteria. They discuss almost every topic from the Nativity and Res- urrection of Christ to alcoholism and boy and girl re- lationships. One of the highlights of the year was the Thanks- giving assembly during which Rev. Daniel Ford, of the West Side Presbyterian Church, spoke to the entire student body. Their Christmas present to the city of Lawrence was in the form of bankets of food taken to seven needy families. The boys brought either food or money for the baskets. Another highlight was the annual chili feed in the cafeteria, when they initiated the new members. All men of the faculty were guests.

Three managers were also awarded letters; they were: Clarke Keys, Orval Craig, and Paul “Little Man” Malone. A special award was made, for the first time this year; it was an award to the most valuable member of the Lion Squad. This honor went to Clarke Keys, head manager, for his invaluable service to the squad. The LMHS “B” squad, coached by H. C. Stuart and G. 0. “Doc” Watson, finished the 1949 grid season with a record of none won. two tied, and five losses. A team composed of sophomores and boys lacking in football ability and experience, the “B” team is the proving grounds for future varsity players and is of invaluable importance to the football activities in LMHS.

Woodard, who also served as Athletic Director. Woodard was chosen by the Topeka Daily Capital as “Coach of the Year during the football campaign. He piloted his charges to their eighth straight league title, the last seven of which have been under “Woody.” Upon graduation from Southwestern College, Win- field, Kansas, Woodard began his coaching career at Kingman. Since then he has established one of the most enviable coaching records of any Kansas prep LMHS COACHING STAFF — Bock row L. I. Bollcy, Guy Born , Cholmcr Woodord, G. O. Wotion. Front row: H. C.

Woody” is highly respected in coaching circles throughout the state. He is in his third year as president of the Kansas Coaches’ Association. C. 0. Doc” Watson completed his seventh year as head track coach. He also coached the B” team in football and was the trainer for the grid squad. He formerly coached the Promoter basketball team and has been both President and Secretary of the now disbanded Kansas-Missouri Conference. H. C. Stuart handled both the football and basket- ball B” teams. Stuart instills the principles and funda- mentals of sport into his charges, better preparing them for the varsity berths they are soon to hold. Guy Barnes served as assistant football coach and had charge of the Cubs, which participated in the City Basketball League. Barnes also handled the distance men during the track season. Leonard Hofstra, in his second year of coaching, was coach during the football season, coached the Little Lions in the city league basketball set-up, and was in charge of the weight men in track. L. R. Perry was the golf coach and intramural director the past year. Dad” was formerly head bas- ketball coach and assisted on the football field. Lowell Bailey once again was the tennis coach for the Lions. He has fashioned several excellent net squads the past few years. • £ •••• IIVTR AMURALS Ouch! my shins! When girls start kicking in a speedball game, everything takes a beating: balls, girls, and even (by mistake k the referee sometimes gets a crack on the shins. Played on the south half of the grounds in back of the school, speedball is the first girls’ intramural sport of the year. Volleyball takes over the agenda and the energies of nearly 100 girls making up a baker's dozen of well coordinated teams which call for the maximum in team- work and cooperation. That well-known varsity cage sport, basketball, takes on a different pattern of strategies when the girls take over. The girls’ rules allow a less strenuous game than that played by their brothers, but teamwork and a determined sextet make the game as enjoyable to the participants as could be desired. Intramural points were earned by each girl who took part in the program. Being a member of a winning team gives more points than being a member of one which loses. At the close of the year, points earned in all intra- mural activities were computed and L’s” were awarded the ten girls with the highest total score'in the annual “honors assembly.” The boys program consisted of tournaments in vol- leyball, basketball and softball. Competition was keen and good sportsmanship was strongly stressed. The girls’ program was larger than thut of the boys as the girls have less opportunity to participate in varsity sports. The Boys’ Gymnastic Club also provided a sports outlet for about 35 boys. Intromurolt prove fovorite ofterichool poitime. 46 BASKETBALL FINDING THE PARSONS PRESS tough golno. Lowronce guord Jock Wolf glvoi off fi� o mid- icoton gome won by Poraona 56-49. With only three boy� returning from last year's squad and only one of them a regular, the Lawrence Lions, under the tutelage of Chalmer Woodard and H. C. Stuort. began building for the tough basketball season immediately following the football season. The three returnees were supported by members of last year's ‘B club. Promoters and several newcomers. Woodard, in his third year at the helm of the Lions, had little to work with but he fashioned a team which, though not resembling the state champs of 1948, never- theless gave the fans a sample of good basketball. The Lions hit the hardwood shortly before Christ- mas. playing games with Pittsburg and Manhattan. The Dragons swamped Lawrence by a score of 60 to 37. Coming back in good fashion, the Lions took the boys from up the Kaw 50 to 46. The Christinas vacation came and went but the cage boys had little time for Santa as they drilled through most of vacation. Diving into the league schedule in the new year, the Lions looked good as they rolled over the leaven- worth Pioneers 49 to 33. The Topeka Trojans ended their long losing streak, belting out a convincing 46 to 33 victory over the Lions to put them on the skids for six consecutive losses. Another loss came at the hands of the Atchison Redmen. In these first five games it was either two wins or two losses each night as the “B” club played “follow the leader and lost or won just as the varsity had. But finally in the Argentine contests the jinx was broken as the young Lions walked off with a win over the Colts while the Lions continued their losing ways, falling before the Mustangs, 31 to 37. It was Shawnee-Mission all the way as the Indians virtually scalped the Lions 39 to 19. The Lions lost again, this time to Ottawa 33 to 39, and finished the first half of the league season in fifth place, a spot not visited by the Lawrence squad since 1942. On the other hand, the “B team, after an early season slump, pulled into the first division. The Northeast Kansas League was particularly ough this year with three teams tied for the lead and five-teams still with a chance at the burning at mid way mark. The Lions journeyed to Dodge City for the Invi- tational Tournament there, losing their sixth straight game to Pretty Prairie on a free throw in the last second of play, 38 to 39. Lawrence finally hit the victory trail by winning its last two games in the tournament. Mulvane fell 41 to 44 while Sylvia was next, bowing 33 to 36 to give Law- rence a two won. one lost, record in the tournament. 47 A-SQUAO ittondmgl Clark Kcye, (manager), Leonard Monro , Brut Stewart, John Simone, Stanton Ball.

This was the sixth straight loss. The boys, taking revenge for those, also for an earlier defeat by the Trojans, closed the regular season with a stunning 47 to 33 victory over Topeka. This ended the regular season with a 6 won and 13 lost record for a .315 percentage. It was the poorest season’s record since 1942. The “B” team cante through in the second half of the season winning five and losing three for a season's total of 11 won, 6 lost. The “B” team lost four league games over the course of the season. Three of these defeats were by one point and the other to Leavenworth by six. the only victory for the Pioneers in league play.
