- The RED and BLACK Steps Through The Looking Glass The Red and Black of 1951 walks with Alice through the Looking Glass into the Wonderland of Liberty Memorial High School. Here, Alice will find in what activities 626 students participate. She will experience, with the help of her looking glass, all the joys and sorrows of the students. She will see sports which seem strange and different from those to which she is accustomed. Her Wonderland will have 626 different land slopes, each one representing the personality of some fellow student. She will, for instance, go to the parties, dance, and sing with the people of her Wonderland. Alice is a fortunate person, for it is not everyone who is per- mitted to look into the adventure of the future or delve into the mysteries of the past. Look well, therefore, Alice, to your opportunity of holding the key to the Door of Time. Open each door carefully so that you will not jar the memory of one precious moment in your adventure into this strange Wonder- land. May we, in years to come, step once more through the looking glass with Alice and relive these happy years at Liberty Memorial High School, for this is the one and only Magic Mirror through which we may return to see and feel the glow of our by-gone Wonder- land. 2 STAFF AND CONTENTS M yiwvw W .

The theme of the Christina Formal was “Winter Wonderland.” Pat Davis, senior representative and Party Chairman of the Student Council, planned and carried out original ideas with the help of Miss Cora Davenport. Rays of soft pastels dominated the color scheme, with Santa and his sleigh adding the rich touch of Christmas. Window scenes added charm and l eauty to the wintry scene of Christmas. Refreshments were served in the midst « f enchanting lights and color. During the intermission, the couples sang Christmas Carols around a revolving tree, decorated with bright blue bulbs. Miss Davenport, active in school affairs, has helped many LMHS students plan parties and as sponsor of the Student Council has completed many school activities. 15 LUCK '0 THE IRISH!

ANONYMOUS An ambitious staff of thirty-one juniors and seniors worked earnestly to write stories, get adver- tisements and meet deadlines the past year. The result was a copy of the BUDGET every week. Fred Coombs and Alden Brownlee were elected co-editors. They were ably assisted by Linda Conner and Bob L'Ecuyer, associate editors; Joan Leonhart. business manager, and Marlyn Kipp, assistant. A football “Review and Preview was printed early in the year. A copy was sent to the athletic departments of each school which Lawrence plays and to the sportswriters of several leading newspapers. A brochure on dramatic productions at LMHS and one on the field of science were published later in the year. As a special feature, a Carnival Carousel was printed during the evening of the annual Student Council carnival. This paper, edited by Mary Keys, contained gossip and bits of humor, and was appreci- ated by everyone who attended. Advertising for all the papers was the job of Pat Davis. Mike Getto. and a crew of eight. All the activities of the Journalism class arc under the guidance of Bill Morey, Jour- nalism instructor. Mr. Morey, new to 1.MHS, carried out his task with efficiency and capa- bility. He. along with the dif- ferent staffs, met and conquered every deadline, and were able to keep a smile through it all. RED AND BLACK Carol in Wilbur, buiineu monoger; Shirley Dodd, art «ditor; Solly Six, cdifor-in-chicf, Morilyn Kipp, advertising monoger; Nancy HuHon, ossittont editor. The year book staff was chosen early this fall to carry through plans for the 1950-’51 yearbook. Sally Six. chosen as editor of the yearbook, is backed by Nancy Hutton as assistant editor. With the guid- ance of Bill Morey, these two girls put out one of the most successful annuals in the history of LMHS. Early this fall. Sally chose “Alice in Wonder- land as the theme of the yearbook. Shirley Dodd, art editor of the Red and Black. carried through the theme with copy sketches taken from the original Tenniel drawings. And so, Alice stepped through her looking glass into the wonderland of LMHS. The Red and Black supplement, also under the direction of Sally and Nancy, will be sent out during the summer and will contain many of the Spring activities and graduation pictures. 18 - LESSONS And how many hours a day did I 2 5 you do lessons? The Mock Tur- tle replied, Ten hours the first '---day, nine the next, and so on. Alice said. What a curious plan! Then the Gryphon ex- plained—“That's why they called them ‘lessons'. 'cause they lessen from day to day. Lcf : Bernard Spence ond Nodinc Schwcitzberger set type in printing clast.

(Women Pay All and the Spring Formal were the outstanding events, of the year put on by the club. Mrs. Helen Cornwell, the capable sponsor, has had much to do to keep up with all the girls. Because of her ability, she has made the Pep Club better each year. Sally Six, who was president, had u ’great job to do. She was at the head of all the activities carried out during the year. Ann Stevens, vice- president, planned all the parties. Ruth Kicffer, sec- retary, kept a record of all the girls' hours for their emblems.

LEADERS CU B s we hear ihe whistles blow, we look in and find the Girls Leaders Club calling plays. These skilled leaders meet once a week to discuss problems that arise in classes and to learn more than the average girls do in class. The girls are elected into Leaders Club and are members as long as they are in high school. The main jobs of a leader are: checking roll and showers, officiating at games and demonstrating sport fundamentals. If a girl works BO hours, she is entitled to a script “L,” and if she works an additional 80 hours, she wins a chevron. At the beginning of the year, Evelyn Cawley and Nancy Hutton were elected co-intramural managers. These two girls had charge of all the intramural sports. BOYS’ GYMNASTIC CLUB BOYS’ GYMNASTICS CLUB About thirty boys participated in the Gym- nastics Club this year. These boys meet every Wednesday for their own enjoyment. They were featured during the half time of several basketball games. The purpose of the club is to give the boys with exceptional gymnastic ability a chance to improve more than is possible in their regular gym classes.

Doing to Earn. Earning to Live, Livinc to Serve’ This is the motto of these worthy farm boys, who this year, numbering sixty members, were again under the supervision of Mr. William J. Essick. National blue and corn gold are the colors of this organization. The emblem itself consists of five symbols: the owl. the plow, the rising sun. the cross section of an ear of corn, and the American eagle. Each member of the F.F.A. has a project which he works on during the year. Trips are made to each boy’s home, where he shows his products for the year. The officers of this club are: Donald Landis, presi- dent: Alvin Fishburn, vice-president: Teddy Connell, secretary; Lanny Tate, treasurer; Gerald Bradlev. re- porter; Francis Zeller, sentinel. The guiding hand of the Jay- hawk chapter of the F.F.A. is William Essick. vocational agri- culture teacher, who has spon- sored this chapter since its organ- ization in 1931. Mr. Essick gives advie to the boys and helps them with their agriculture projects. 31 Second row: Leslie Artmon, Rod Ernst, Quinton Colo, Bob Blockmon, Tom Dronnon, Kenneth Olson, Glon Roberts, Ross Dornell, Borry Pottcrson.

The motto of this club is look sharp, feel sharp, ami shoot sharp. This motto really describes each member of the club. Kneeling, sitting, prone, and stand- ing are the four methods of positions that the members use. The club usually has about seven or eight matches a year w ith surrounding schools. Mr. Richard Simpson, sponsor of the club, and Mr. William Henton. coach, both believe that practice makes perfect and that’s why the club meets every Wed- nesday night in the basement of the Community Building.

This is the first year for this cluh at LMHS and it is under the very capable direction of Miss Pearl Carpenter, Mr. Eri Wood, and Mr. Garvin Gillum. The club is so new that it hasn’t had time to start many activities, hut it has had time to be- come a member of the Kansas Junior Academy of Science at the University of Kansas. The cluh is composed of all students in Physics. Chemistry, and Biology classes who are especially interested in studying different phases of science. Each Monday, reports are given by different members of the class on their respective hobbies. Some speakers from the university also give speech- es on these days. David Horr is both the president and secretary of the cluh and Karl Heidcr is the treasurer. Standing: Rogor Von Ghent. Gory Flory, Karl Holder. Jim Burdick. Louis Wilkie.

FOOTBALL The 1950 schedule was, without a doubt, one of the toughest that the Lions have ever faced. Unbeaten Topeka had its best team in ten years. Ottawa had its best team in nineteen years, Ar- gentine’s record was the best in twelve years and Shawnee-Mission’s team ranks with the best in the school’s history with only one loss. Once more, November saw the curtain fall on a victorious football season at LMHS. Although this year’s season record of five wins, three losses and one tic did not quite equal the Lions’ records of the past, the team, neverthless, played a good and entertaining brand of football. Coach Allan Woolard, in his first year as head mentor of the Lions, saw his charges open the home season by defeating the Indians from up Manhattan way 26 to 12. This marked the seventh consecutive year that Lawrence has de- feated Manhattan.

The Lions, holding a 7 to 0 lead and once again knocking on touchdown's golden door, saw Chuck Nelson, fleet Trojan quarterback, intercept a Law- rence aerial and race 100 yards for the tying touchdown.

Shawnee-Mission and Ottawa split the crown while Lawrence tied with Argentine for third. Following the Ottawa tilt, the Lions traveled to Wyandotte for a non-league game. The hapless Bulldogs proved no match for the rejuvenated Lions and fell before the onslaught, 30 to 14. The '51 season closed November 16 as Emporia forced the Lions to their third loss of the season by the score of 13 to 7. 37 in 34 outings for the Lions on their home field, their worst defeat in 11 games, and their first loss to Shawnee-Mission in the ten-year series between the two schools. Lawrence bounced back into title contentions against Leavenworth, however, when the subdued the stubborn Pioneers 19 to 13 at Abel Field in Leavenworth. Argentine was next to feel the power and deception of the LMHS gridders. as the Lions trimmed the Mustangs 13 to 7. The picture was now set for a title showdown between Lawrence and Ottawa. Shawnee-Mission was assured of half of the title, while the winner of the Lion vs. Cyclone game was to Iw awarded the other half. For eight long ears. the l.awrcnce Lions had won or shared the NEKL title. A fierce. Cyclone from Ottawa changed things, though, when a terrible storm such as the Lions had not seen for many a year set in on Lawrence and l eat the Lions 13 to 7. For the first time in NEKL histon, the Lions were not on top at the end of the season. Roy Co moke o long gain before being flopped by Dave Lewi , all HI- KL halfback, of Shownee-Mi ion.

The Atchison Redmen were the next to invade the Lion stomping grounds, but the Lions were all-powerful, as the big game hunters were forced to retire from the field with a 35 to 6 drubbing. A week later, Indians again invaded the home ground of the Lions in the form of Shawnee- Mission. The Lion who. for so many years, ever since way back in 1941. had driven all invaders from his land with stinging defeats, was at last wear) and tired, and while in this weak moment the Shawnee Indians crept and stalked about until they forced the mighty Lion into submission by the count of 27 to 6.

After a bit of hard luck, the LMHS “Bees’ ended their season with one won and six lost. In many instances, opposing teams came from behind to score by narrow margins in the closing minutes of the game. The “Bees’ ” one win was over Topeka, which was the first time the Lawrence “B squad has beaten Topeka since Coach Stuart has been here. Coach Stuart, in commenting on the team's season, said that as the team is basically for giving the juniors and sophomores experience for varsity football and anybody who wants to a chance to play. The season was a success because all the boys got a lot of game experience and all had fun.

BASKETBALL Opening their 1950-1951 basketball season in superb fashion, the Lawrence Lions completely overpowered a semingly helpless, but veteran Man- hattan aggregation by the score of 51 to 31. Eldon Nicholson’s 32 points helped Pittsburg hand the Lions their first loss of the season 56 to 50 at Pittsburg. Parson proved to be an ungracious host when they gave the Lions their worst troumping of the season as the strong Vikinks took a surprisingly easy 75 to 45 decision. After returning from the disastrous road trip, Lawrence went to the Ottawa Invitational Tourna- ment.

Lawrence’s winning streak didn’t last long however, as the next night they lost in the finals to Ottawa 36 to 46. An inspired Lion team upset favored Leaven- worth on the Pioneers home court 45 to 36, to take their initial league start. They continued to be baffled by non-confer- ence opposition as they bowed to Topeka in a heart breaking 35 to 37 decision in the LMHS gym. Atchison proved to be no competition as they bowed in a NEKL tilt 47 to 31 to give Lawrence its second straight league victory in a game played in the friendly confines of the LMHS gym. However, it was an entirely different story the next week as Shawnee-Mission soundy spanked the Lions in the new Shawnee fieldhou9C 51 to 43 to drop the Lions to second place in the league standings. Rising to unforscen heights and pulling the upset of the year, the unpredictable Lawrence Lions dropped one of the kingpins of high school basket- ball as it downed the previously unbeaten Ottawa Cyclones 48 to 43. The game was the high point of the season for Lawrence as it beat a team that had won ten straight games and had averaged 59.9 points per contest. It was one of the most thrilling games ever played on the Lawrence court. Lawrence had its hottest night of the season as it stayed in its newly gained first place tie by tripping Roy Baker's defending champion Argen- tine Mustangs, on the ponies home court, 60 to 45. 39 Shaw Nee-Mission continued its court “wham- my” over Lawrence as it clipped the Lions on their own court 46 to 37 to completely sweep the years encounters in the major sports. Son Sronc and on unidentified Lo«rcncc ploycr jump to tokc tip at Stanton Boll, Jotk Wolfe, ond Morvin look on. Playing one of their poorest games of the season, the Lions were humiliated in their own gym by the ever dangerous Leavenworth Pioneers 50 to 35. The loss dropped the Lions into third place where they were to remain the rest of the season. Lawrence journeyed to the Atchison Opera House the next week where Atchison again fell easily. This time they dropped a 42 to 33 tilt to H. C. Stuart’s boys. Roy Cox -.'ores off Zipp at Morvin Pohl ond um.: ntified Shawnee-Mission players look on.

The LMHS gym again proved to be a jinx to Lions hopes as Wyandotte emerged on the long end of a 42-36 decision. In this contest the Lions went stone cold in the final six minutes while Wyandotte was scoring seven points to take the hard fought game.

Staging their most dramatic comeback of the season, Lawrence nosed out the Argentine Mustangs in the final ten seconds to take the measure of Roy Baker’s team for the second time 50 to 48. 'Phis was the last home game of the season for Lawrence. Lawrence ended its regular season play with the Topeka trojans and again Lawrence lost a heart breaking two point game 43 to '15.

Coach Don Vallicre's boys started out on the right foot in their only meeting with Manhattan, trimming them 43 to 38. Then in their first league game they cckcd ‘out a victory over Leavenworth 29 to 27. The Topeka Trojans proved the first stumbling block for the young Lions as they lost to them 48 to 34.

The loss to Shawnee must have set fire to the B squad as they won three league games in a row, heating Ottawa 43 to 36, whipping Argentine 47 to 34 and skunk- ing Leavenworth 45 to 22. The little Lions then lost a tough league battle to Atchison 38 to 30. The boys again showed they didn’t like to lose by this time winning four tough games straight, three of them league battles. I hey walloped the Bulldogs from Wyandotte 42 to 34. They got sweet revenge on the Shawnee Mission Indians 32 to 26. They clobbered Ottawa for the second time by the score of 59 to 53 and heat Argentine in the last league game of the year 40 to 34. The league record was 8 wins and 2 losses, which crowned the Lawrence team KKL Champ for the 1951 season. In the final game of the season the Trojans from Topeka still proved unbeatable for the Law- rence Bees as they lost 44 to 36. but never the less the LMHS B team finished the season with a 10, won, 4 loss record, which is one of the Ircst B team records in LMIIS history.

At the first of the season these teams played a round robin and at the close of the regular sea- son they compete in a post season tournament. The Haskell Braves won this tournament while the FT A captured the League crown by winning all their games in regular season play. Because of the great number of boys out, the main teams divided up into a smaller league and they played after school while the larger league pla)cd in the evening every Wednesday.

The villoinous Melbourne Bosehort, olios Rle Blockmon, begs the fair Bessie for a kiss in Bessie, the Bandit's Beautiful Boby. Roeelyn Roney ond Marjorie Dcnewilcr tap out a version of Strolling Through the Pork in the vaudeville acts which followed Bessie, the Bandit's Bcoutiful Boby, the oil-school ploy given in October. With the highlights of a rip-roaring old time “meller drama. the 1950-1951 theatrical season got under way on November 17 and 18. when the all-school play. “Bessie the Bandit’s Beautiful Baby, was presented.

Others in the cast were: Citronella, Shirley Spector: Mrs. Romainc, Mary Patton: Mr. Romaine. Doug Jost; Melbourne Bashart. Ric Blackmon: Ramrod, Bob Richards: Mrs. Jesse James. Sally Six. The Vaudeville show enabled many LMHS students to prove their ability to act. sing, and dance. “Horses Don’t Bet on People’ was the theme of the comedy act played by Jerry Davis and Bob Fisher. Alden Brownlee and Allen Moore. Bob Fisher and Ric Blackmon also provided amusing skits. The “Barbareltes.” a quartette made up of Kay Nelson. Virginia Fleer.

Troupe 157, is in its twentieth year at LMHS, with Mrs. Bernice Harvey as sponsor. The aims of the society are two fold: first, to esta- blish and promote standards of excellence in all phases of dramatic arts; second, to create an active and intelli- gent interest in dramatic arts among the students. The Society has chosen as its motto: “Act well your part: there all the honor lies.” Their colors are blue and gold. The Troupe was in charge of the Christmas assembly this year and also entered “Happy Journey”, a one-act play, in the district contest at Topeka. A banquet was held in February and in the Spring to initiate new members. The officers for 1950-51 were: President, Rocclyn Roney; Vice President, Barbara Elam; Secretary, Mar- lene Stayton. Other members are: Linda Conner, Ruthann Kieffer, Kenneth Holliday, Sally Six, Ed Ruese, Shirley Spector, Jack Elvig, Bonnie Avey, Caroline Wilbur, Betty Davis, Karl Heider, Mildred Wicchman, Tommy Ryther, Ray Cox, Ric Blackmon, Shirley Dean, Mary Patton, Allen Moore, Doug Jost, Lucile Walter, Bill Pulliam, Carolyn Laing, Jane Underwood, Tommy Hankins, Jerry Davis, Aldcn Brownlee, Jerkie Johnson, and Susie Johnson.

It is here that we pay tribute to one who contributed so much to make these years as full and as rich as they have been. Faria Joy Majors was born in Aurora, Colo- rado, July 21, 1933, and moved from Denver to Lawrence in June, 1943. She attended Pinckney school two years, junior high three years, and was a junior in high school at the time of her death. While in junior high school, Faria was sec- retary and vice-president of the Student Council, in the upper ten-percent of her class, three years a cheerleader, and was voted the most popular girl in the ninth grade, she played the leading role in the o| eretta, “The Beauty Contest”. As a sophomore in high school Faria was a member of the sophomore chorus, did solo work and during the following summer she received a scholarship to attend the K.U. Music Camp where she achieved outstanding work in Music Theory. In her junior year Faria was student director of the junior play, “Stage Door.” Memories of Faria recall one whose inborn charm and winning smile coupled with a clear foresight and willingness to work, spelled success. Our feelings are best expressed in the words of John Keats: “ f Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness . . . .” 52 MUSIC Mock Turtle would be so kind” Alice replied, so eagerly that the Gryphon said, in a rather of- ' fended tone, “Hmmm! No ac- counting for tastes! Sing her Turtle Soup , you old fellow! ZL ... on this the White Rabbit —— blew three blasts on the trumpet. JACK STEPHENSON Instrumental Instructor MUSIC All I,MHS students should appreciate the fact that they were serenaded every morning, first period, during the past year. On Monday. Wednesday, and Friday, the 90 members of the hand furnished the students with music while the orchestra made their contribution on Tuesday and Thursday. The hand is directed by Mr. Jack Stephenson, who is also the Supervisor of Public School Music in Lawrence. Throughout the year they played and marched for all football games, including the ones at Topeka, Argentine, and Wyandotte, the Annual Hand Day Parade, and the Haskell Day Parade. The organization made excellent showings at the District Music Festival and also during Music Week. R.

The class of 1950 presented this plaque to the school in honor of the lote E. L. Novotny. Mrs. Novotny and two of the class officers unveil the plaque in assembly. Activities To step into the LMHS cafeteria the night of April 3. anyone would have thought that a group of Romans had taken over. Well, they had! It was the annual Roman banquet given by the Latin classes and the occasion found the students, who were dressed as Romans, leisurely reclining on the improvised couches. Snirley Spector serves punch at the Spring Open House. 87 Sports TRACK Coach Guy Barnes’ Lion trackmen ended the season with one of the best track seasons in the history of the school. Lawrence scored the most points in the KU Interscholastic Meet that a LMHS team has scored since 1915. In both the regional and state meet Lawrence scored the most points that a Lawrence team has ever scored and finished higher than they ever before finished in the history of the school. Two school records were smashed as powerful Bill Nieder threw the shot 54’ 11” to beat Charley Penny’s old record by more than a foot and a half. Don Sneegas broke Dick Johnson’s javelin record twice this season first in the NEKL meet and sec- ond in the regional. Numerous dual records were broken thruout the season and Lawrence students certainly have a right to be proud of their fine coaches and high scoring track squad which came through in the big meets when it counted.

The four matches they lost were to Shawnee-Mission, Olathe, and Wyandotte twice. Four men, Tom Rythcr, Lewis Phil- lips, Bill Pulliam and Merle Hodges, alter- nated at playing the singles matches during the season. The other four men who saw considerable action over the grueling cam- paign were Leon Mason, Robert Reiter, Richard Butler and Richard Nuffer.

This was an ex- cellent achievement since this was only the second year in which Lawrence has had a golf team. The golf team was led by one of the most outstanding amateurs in the state, Bob Richards. In the four league matches Richards averaged only one-half stroke above par. He shot a three under par 67 at Leavenworth, a three under par 71 at Atchison and a one under par 67 at Law- rence for his top performances of the season. At the state tournament the Lions had four men, Bob Richards, Jim Schmitten- dorf, Hank Lockard and Norman Burnett, competing for honors. Richards shot an even par 144 for 36 holes yet took third place two strokes off the pace. The two man team of Richards and Jim Schmitten- dorf also did well taking third place in a field of seventeen teams. First Row, loft to right, S. Stoyton, D. Beene, R. Love, B. Reiter, I. Hughe .

Opening night, April 16, found approximately 260 LMHS music students ready and waiting to picsent their annual performance of “For You a Song.” Each year Mr. Wayne Nelson, choral director, spends a great deal of time organizing this pro- gram. The Screnaders, Senior choruses, Moderns, Girls Glee Club, and various soloists all worked together very hard to make the 1951 program a success. Dick Fritz, student director of the Serenaders, specially arranged the songs “Temptation,” “In the Still of the Night,” and “Someone to Watch Over Me,” for the participating groups. Nineteen fifty-one marked the third perform- ance of this outstanding musical program. Having gotten its start in 1949 by Mr. Nelson, “For You a Song” is well on its way to success and increas- ing popularity.
