• 2s r 'i COMING INTO FOCUS THE El Pe OF 1957 PRESENTED BY THE SENIORS OF '57 La Porte High School La Porte, Indiana 1956-57 brought us many changes—a new prin- cipal, a larger enrollment, a different class schedule and nine new teachers. All these changes plus the usual game dances and club activities arc a good way to bring into FOCUS the new century of L.P.H.S. tyocuAinCf, attention on Jt.P.eM-.S. in 1956-57, toe j inA Looking back over the year in L.P.H.S. we recall different people, places and events—some appearing bright and distinct in our memories. The freshmen, trying to feel secure in their new surroundings, preferred to take the long way to class rather than chance a shorter route and get hopelessly lost. Feeling a bit more important, the sophomores entered more clubs and athletic activities. Now upperclassmen, the juniors busied themselves raising money for their big event of the year—the Junior Prom. The college-bound and work-bound seniors planned as their big event of the year, the Junior-Senior Banquet to welcome the juniors as upperclassmen. It is our intent to bring into FOCUS the highlights and daily routines that made up our school year, 1956 57.

How do you solve 3x -f- y = 25?” could be heard from a confused student going into algebra class. For more determined students, instruc- tion in advanced math is offered. But as the fresh- men were struggling through 9B math and algebra, the seniors, Big Wheels” at last, found that they could get just as confused in college algebra and trigonometry as the freshman in his math courses. Dave Oakes and Phyllis Mooscy explain right triangles to the geometry class.

Soon they be- came accustomed to these unusual odors and regarded them as something to be expected. The freshmen in biology class were busy studying cotton fibre, wool, onion cells, check cells and sulphur grains under the microscope. They also learned differ- ent parts of flowers, and dissected frogs. Mice and guinea pigs were used for different experiments. While the freshmen were busy studying plants and animals in biology, the juniors were deeply engrossed in physics trying to solve problems and understand the experiments dealing with electricity and sound. The seniors, especially those planning to go to college, found that there is more to chemistry than appears on the surface. Their year was occupied with learning chemical laws and theories, performing classic experi- ments and having fun identifying unknown sub- stances. Larry Fitzsimmons, Richard Smycrs and Ray Gliva concentrate on one of the many Chemistry experiments. Mr. Fisher mixes Geometry and Chemistry as he explains a geometry problem to Ron and Don Hciden after school. S'fxecJzinCf,, wsutwuf and n cufonxf Good English is a necessary part of every-day life. Whether we advance to higher positions in life or not, a good foundation in the English language is invalu- able. L.P.H.S. provides an opportunity for all stu- dents to improve their understanding of all phases of English. Senior English consists of one semester of Composition, and either one or two semes- ters of Literature prepares seniors for future college work.

Parts of speech, word usage and sentence structure are all included in the grammatical section of com- position. Literature is composed of reading and interpreting stories and poems dealing with various countries and periods in history. Speech class gives one experience in prepar- ing and giving oral as well as written reports. Jerry Bcckncll, Ralph Starmcr and Bill Carbon exchange ideas on the construction of a sentence in Miss Brock's Senior Comp, class. Page nine This is where the ancient Romans lived,” exclaims Nancy Lewis in Latin class. Qu’est-ce que e’est? Que cs eso?” can be heard from the different foreign language classes. In French class, one learns how to read, write and speak French. In the advanced class he asks and answers all questions in French. In Spanish class, as in French, one also learns to read, write, and speak Spanish. The Latin classes differ from other foreign language classes in that Latin is not spoken. However, Latin students obtain a thorough understanding of the English language through different grammatical exer- cises. During their Spanish class Ross Slater and Lois Smith read current events from the Spanish version of Life magazine. tyosieicftt l WfUGXj i and facial itudieA.

The discovery of America and early settlement is reviewed, but this phase of history is usually studied thoroughly in World History. The functioning of our national and state govern- ments is explained in Civics class. How a bill is passed through Congress and how Congress and the legisla- tures arc run are among the other phases of govern- ment studied. Sociology and Psychology classes explain how our environment helps develop our personalities, the dif- ference between introversion and extroversion and how to understand oneself and other people better.

The high school drivers’ training car this year was a black and white ’56 Ford. It was often seen in the business area during the school day. Every student takes Safety at one time or another and receives driv- ing lessons in the school car from either Miss Cosand, Mr. Doloway, Mr. Miller or Mr. Hubncr. With the larger enrollment in school, the new gym has proven a great help since it has a divided floor, enabling boys and girls to have gym at the same hour. The health classes teach us about our body struc- ture and the importance of good habits of living. One of Miss Cosand's driving classes is just getting started as a student puts the car in reverse and backs down the driveway. Wayne Wagner is shown by Diane Walston one of the major internal organs and is told how it functions.

Baggs practice on the electric typewriter and dictaphone. ccutAA i josi the Vocationally minded students find that the well- rounded commercial program at L.P.H.S. has much to offer them. Two years of shorthand and typing greatly aids girls interested in secretarial positions. In shorthand the fourth semester girls also receive instructions on how to use the dictaphone machine and the electric typewriter. In bookkeeping class the students learn to be accurate in working their different problems with budgets, in addition to being very neat and accurate in their work with ledgers. The girls in Miss Huddleston’s beginning Typing class wonder if they will ever be able to type 60 words a minute with no errors. Cooking and sewing helps any girl to bet- ter understand two of her most important fu- ture homemaking responsibilities. Some of the activities of the cooking classes include prepar- ing and serving complete and well-balanced meals and learning the nutritional value of foods. In the clothing classes the girls learn about fabrics and color combinations. They also learn the importance of personal appearance be- fore beginning to study patterns and construct garments. This is a scene from last year's Home Nursing course in child care. The girls tell the children stories and teach them different games stressing muscle coordination.

Mechanical Drawing I teaches fundamentals and deals mainly with orthographic projection and sec- tioning. In the second semester the fundamentals of isometric, oblique and auxiliary drawing arc learned. The students view graphic solutions as they pertain to mechanical drawing and developments as they pertain to sheet metal drawing and transition views. The first two semesters in Printing arc spent study- ing the textbook and learning different printing processes. Later the boys put their learning to work doing practice jobs. In the third and fourth semesters they do different printing jobs for the school such as printing tickets for dances and programs and also for the football and basketball games. Learning the operation of the lathe and turning the diameter to specified size by using blueprints arc among the fundamentals the students learn in Ma- chine Shop I. In the second semester they learn to cut threads on the lathe and do taper turning. In the third and fourth semesters the students make a project requiring several fitted pieces. Later they learn to make parts of machines. Bob Konya really concentrates as he operates the drill press. A1 oa Ueiif, ajf aciialtieA.

The library helps in writing themes and term papers, preparing reports, providing a place for quiet study or reading current magazines. Peace and quiet reign supreme in the study hall—much to the delight of the teacher. Page sixteen addU i uce to daily nou-ti+ie. Each Christmas season the French Club plans and decorates the display case which always features a creche, or French nativity scene. Each month the display case shows different exhibits made by school clubs. Mike (Elvis Presley) Sharplcss performs at one of the pep sessions. The pep committee planned most of this year’s sessions but Pepper Club and Boys’ Service Club each staged a pep session on their own. The band swings out on one of the many popular hits in the Boys’ Service Club’s production of Lights and Music.” Besides the band, the show featured several vocal numbers. An outstanding number of the program was 'Midnight Sun” played in honor of Tore Sorland, the Norcwgian exchange student for the year.

This three-act comedy begins the night before Joan Cameron’s, played by Judy Valentine, wedding day, when she discovers herself upset about her choice of bridegrooms. The story takes place at the beginning of World War II; therefore both of the young men in her life enter the army. The play flashes back to Joan’s school life plus her love story. She encounters the problems of the typical high school girl in addition to those created by her intense interest in Peru and South America.

BRAZIL cMeifUncf, to make The makeup committee for Fol- low the Dream makes up cast members just before curtain time. Much time and effort was spent by the makeup committee, scenery committee and lighting crew to obtain the desired effect in the school productions. The scenery committee for the two plays had to work after school and on Saturdays. They had to decide what kind of scenery would be best suited for different acts in the plays, then construct some of the scenery used and blend in the right color tones when painting the back scenery. The make-up committee learned how to apply theatrical make-up by practicing on each other. After experimenting they were able to use different types of make-up on each player neatly and effectively. The lighting crew, by the use of correct lighting technics, controlled night and day in the play scenes. They learned how to use the system of overhead stage lights and the flood lights.

On April 24, an all-student cast presented a lively performance entitled Through These Doors,” written by Mrs. Robert Coffccn, Guidance Secretary. This play-type production reviewed the progress of L.P.H.S. from its establishment in 1856 by Jasper Packard to the present day. The A Cappella choir, aided by members of the orchestra and student volunteers, staged this musical production. The cast performed in appropriate cos- tumes representing different eras such as the Gay Nineties and the Roaring Twenties. The program was well received by LaPortc adults as well as by the students. In the 1920’s all the hep-cats were doing the Charleston. This couple takes a bicycle ride as the choir sings Bicycle Built For Two.” Page twenty-four Two students of the 1890’s strike a pose in front of the school’s familiar doors. 7Ueie boord. in centennial celebration The first high school opened class sessions in 1856 in an upper floor of the former Porter school located on Detroit Street between Jefferson and Maple Ave- nue. Only two persons partiepated in the first gradu- ation which was held in 1861. Our present school buiding was erected in 1924 and the annex was added in 1931. This year the graduating class consists of 260 boys and girls. The present enrollment is 1,250. The ushers carried out the theme of the program by appearing in colorful costumes of different eras. The entire cast of Say It With Music” combine their efforts in the final chorus after a delightful performance. 7(4e J Qap xeila Gltoi i (j oe uA anatUe i Last year on May 17 and 18, the A Cappella Choir gave its annual spring musical. It was entitled Say It With Music” and was a follow- ing of the life of Irving Berlin. The show was written and produced by two members of our faculty, Mr. John Mark Johns and Mr. David E. Simpson. The student director was Dennis Bowen. The entire musical program consisted of Irving Berlin's most popular songs. The first part of the show had some of the old favorites Nancy Frye and Janice Brown com- plain that You Can’t Get A Man With A Gun.” Page twenty six These old-time bar tenders take time out to harmonize with the piano player. bp. iJzlUuf, p ifjOSimance. in Say 9t With MnUc like Alexander’s Ragtime Band,” Blue Skies,” A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody,” Easter Parade,” Say it Isn’t So,” Always” and Remember.” The second half of the show consisted of patriotic numbers and songs from the musical comedy hit, Annie Get Your Gun.” The most humorous part of the pro- gram came from this part. A few of these songs were Doin’ What Comes Naturally,” I’m A Big Bad Man,” You Can’t Get A Man With A Gun” and Anything You Do.” Roland Hockctt is a little shy as Dale Burkhardt asks Who Do You Love?” Page twenty-seven Freshman cheerleaders, J. Lewis, M. O’Dell, K. Baker and J. Sawyer were elected late in the school year. P p. osufGjug tuuiA. ohA Boasting pep and cheer at the fooball and basket- ball games was the job of the L.P.H.S. chccrlcading squad, consisting of Diane Bumgardncr and Judy McCorkel, the two returning cheerleaders, and Carol Tufteland and Judy Barden. To add more support and enthusiasm to the freshman teams, four fresh- men cheerleaders were chosen. They were Martha O’Dell, Joan Sawyer, Karen Baker and Jean Lewis. From now on the cheerleading squads will be elected each spring for the following year. This year the varsity cheerleaders wore completely new outfits as they cheered the teams. Another group of spirit builders was the Pepper Club. They went to the football and basketball games and had a bus sponsored for the out-of-town football games. During the basketball season, they used pom- poms in their cheering, made signs and also made a hoop for every home game. Miss Litz sponsors both of these pep-boosting organizations. A familiar sight at the basketball games was the Pepper Club cheering section yelling for the Slicers, electio- t ojf (fiueesvi a ic pgaI ojj ApxvilA. actiaitiel The 195 6 Track Queen, Marlene Larson, is presented with a bouquet as her court, B.

Page thirty-two The biggest social event of the year, the Junior- Senior Prom, is planned efficiently each year by the Junior class. In January preparation for the Prom begins. Committees are chosen, ideas for the theme arc discussed and plans for the decorations arc worked out. Last year, Prom goers entered the enchanting realm of Black Magic.” This theme was carried out with a spider web effect which formed the ceiling by alter- nating strips of black, white and gray crepe paper. The side walls featured abstract silhouettes illum- inated by colored lights in the background. The queen’s throne matched the pattern in the ceiling. At 12:00 most of the Prom goers assembled at the Moose Hall where new 1956 chauffcrcd cars drove them to the LaPortc Trcatrc where they saw The Birds and The Bees” starring George Gobcl. G.

Then the couples were driven back to the Moose Hall where they enjoyed a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Dinner music was furnished by an Amer- ican Federation of Musicians orchestra. Further en- tertainment was provided by several vaudeville acts— a girl vocalist, a ventriloquist and a harmonica act. Many attendance prizes were awarded to lucky ticket holders. The final prize was a portable radio. After-Prom activities ended at 5 o’clock in the morning. Many couples then attended breakfast par- ties or changed into sportswear and headed for the beach as a climax to the gay festivities. Spectators enjoy watching the many couples have a gay time as they dance. Sports Sports bring into FOCUS the best qualities of the student body—school spirit, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. Sports in LPHS range from football in the fall to golf in the spring. This well-rounded program gives every boy a chance to partiepate in his favorite sport.

The basketball season had many exciting moments In the season opener Gary Horace Mann dumped LaPortc 55-32. Mann’s huge center Harry Manushaw scored 28 points while Don Sabic had 13 for the Slicers. Elkhart trounced the Slicers 70-45 as Ted Luckcn- bill tallied 26 points for the Blazers. Bob Wiltfong had 15 and Ron Eigenmann 14 for LaPortc.

For the Cats, Newton had 22, Hall 18, Greene 16, Smith 15 while Ike” Eigenmann had 18, Don Sabic 16 and Wayne Dav- isson and Bob Wiltfong each had 10 points for LaPortc. The Cats were second in the state and their shooting showed it. LaPorte won their first game of the season by beat- ing Fort Wayne North 57,46. The Slicers came from behind to win with Bob Wiltfong’s 27 points. Dav- isson added 13 points and Sabic 10. Waters led North- side with 15 points. The following night at East Chicago the Rough Riders of Roosevelt trounced the Slicers as LaPortc staged a comedy of errors. Bob Wiltfong scored 18 points. Hicks led the Riders with 16 followed by Todd and James with 13 points. The Slicers’ next game was against Muncic Burris in the Michigan City Holiday Tourney. LaPortc beat the Owls who featured a pair of pint-sized guards who were very good. Sabic led Sliccr scoring with 21 followed by Ike” and Wiltfong, 12 and 10 points respectively. In the final game of the tourney Michigan City, paced by Jess Merriweather’s 25 points, rolled over the Slicers 84-45. Also for the Red Devils Matt Jarrett had 16 tallies and Charlie Higgs and Dick White 12 a piece. Ike” had 14 and Sabie 11 points. Page forty-six A scramble for a loose ball results in a draw against the Panthers of Gary Roosevelt. In the first game of 1957 LaPortc held a slim lead early in their game with Richmond. This lead was overcome mainly through the 22 point shooting of Richmond’s Shook. Four Slicers produced all the points. Sabic 14, Ike” 13, Wiltfong 11, and Black- burn’s 10 was the extent of LaPortc’s scoring. LaPortc next ran into the number 1 team in the State. The South Bend Central quintet raced to a 19-2 first quarter lead and coasted to an 84 to 49 win. Sabie scored 16 and Al Ott 13 to pace the Slic- ers. Sylvester Coalmon had 22, John Coalmon 19, Herbie Lee 16, and Joe Winston 11 for a well-bal- anced attack. At Valparaiso the Sliccrs out scored the Vikings in field goals 20-13 but lost as Valpo hit a hot free throw percentage, netting 33 to LaPortc’s 15. Ike” had 15 points and Wiltfong 11 for LaPortc while Gott and Jones led Valpo with 19 and 16 points respectively. In a conference game with South Bend Riley frcc- throws again made the difference. While behind on field goals, the Sliccrs won by hitting more frec- throws. Sabie’s 18 tallies and Al Ott’s 14 paced the Slicers to their 58-53 victory. Starrett had 16 and Wintrodc 11 for the losers. A cold Slicer five scored only 6 field goals in losing to Fort Wayne South 50-30. Carl Stavrcta led South with 15 points. Sabie had 11 and Ike” 10 in the loss to the Archers. A 4-point third quarter was responsible for the Sliccrs’ 59-56 setback against John Adams. LaPortc dominated the other three quarters but faded in the fatal third. Sabic again led Slicer scoring with 21 markers supported by Al Ott’s 18. Fullback” Phil- lips also had 21 for the Eagles followed by Wesley Rachaels with 11. Don Sabic tries to get a shot away against Horace Mann’s 6 foot 11 inch center. Al Oct gets away a shot, despite the efforts of four Hammond Wildcats. In a fourth quarter rally LaPortc held Gary Roose- velt to 3 points but the last-ditch stand fell five points short. Sabic took game honors with his 27 points. Ike” had 10 while Heflin and Guydon scored 20 and 10 respectively for the Panthers. The Slicers netted their third conference win by edging Goshen 61-5 5. Sparked by the brilliant per- formance of Blackburn, Jensen and Ott, our fighting Don Sabic goes after a rebound against the Cats of Terre Haute. i r John Coalmon of South Bend Central scores despite the attempt of Al Ott to block his shot. Slicers notched their fourth victory of the season. Frickc of Goshen was high scorer for the night with 20 points. Playing one of their best games of the season, the Slicers lost a hard fought battle with Mishawaka 86-72. LcRoy Johnson, Mishawaka’s towering center, shattered the old NIHSC record by amassing 34 points. Sabic, Blackburn and Eigenmann lead the gruelling battle for the Slicers. It was the Caveman’s 30 points in the fourth quarter that prevented an upset. LaPorte, weary from their before-night battle with Mishawaka, was not as sharp as they were the night before. The accuracy of Hammond’s Donald- son and Cross proved too much for the cold Slicers. Eigenmann led LaPortc with 17 points. The Slicers, after losing an early lead, couldn’t quite catch up with the Panthers in the hard-fought fourth quarter and went down in defeat 69-68. Brooks and Easton were high for South Bend Wash- ington but Sabic was high-scorer for the game with 24 points. Big Al Ott was tough under the nets and dropped 13 points in the bucket. Against rival Michigan City the Slicers started slowly. The Crowd roared as LaPortc hit 27 points in the third quarter to take the lead. However, Jim Page forty-eight Sabic, Jim Bailey and Ott rebound against Mike Hayes of Union as Tiger Jerry Arndt looks on. Bcchinski, who held game honors with 24 points, scored most of his total in the fourth quarter to pace City to a 61-52 victory. Jess Merriweather had 14 for the Red Devils. Sabie led Sliccr scoring with 19. Jensen and Eigenmann had 11 and 10 respectively. A cold Sheer five was overwhelmed by the Bearcats of Muncie Central 69-47. Starrett led all scores with 21 points. His teammate Wilkinson and Sliccr Eigen- mann each tallied 12. LaPorre had little difficulty in downing Stillwell in the first game of the Sectionals, 86-33. Coach Mil- ler cleared the bench early in the second half. The reserve strength provided the Sliccrs with a balanced scoring attack through the remainder of the game. Union Township proved to be a tougher opponent thin Stillwell, but they were outdone in the later stages of the ball game. The Slicers outscorcd Union 20-5 in the final quarter to snatch the victory 57-42. Wiltfong sparked the victory and took scoring hon- ors with 26 points. A fired-up Union Mills crew also proved an able opponent for the tide of battle was very close throughout the first half. Sabic and Blackburn sparked the last half rally as the Sliccrs gained a scat in the finals. 70-5 5. Wheeler, Justice and Lute were the nucleus of the Millers’ attack. LaPorte, seeking to end its sectional jinx, fought from behind to take a 7 point lead in the second quarter, but the Red Devils of Michigan City came back to take the lead at half-time. From then on City lead all the way but couldn’t pull away with more than a ten-point lead. Don Sabic was high point man for LaPorte and the game. The tall senior scored 22 points in his final high school basketball contest. Bob Wiltfong added 15 while Jim Bcchinski paced the Devils with 18 followed by A1 Whitlow’s 13 and Dick White’s 10 points. Alan Whitlow of Michigan City has his shot blocked Al Ott tics up the ball as Sliccr Jim Bailey and Red by Sliccr Don Sabic in sectional action while two Devils Charlie Higgs and Dick White watch, other LaPorte players go for the ball.

Sophomore laden track team needs more experience A shortage of experienced trackstcrs in the field events lower the chances of a highly successful sea- son for the track team. There are many sophomores trying their abilities, therefore with much hard work these underclassmen could be a big asset to Coach Gerald Van Wagner. There arc approximately 8 or 9 returning letter- men to lead the way. Don Lambert figures to be a point-getter in the shot-put events. Jerry Bailey, Dennis Barden, John Deuschelc and Tom Miller are expected to be the top distance runners, with Jerry Burkhardt and Bob Purkal running the dashes. Most of the other spots are open and Coach Van Wagner is looking for capable boys to fill them. April 9 E. C. Roosevelt T April 12 S. B. Washington T April 16 Mishawaka LaPorte S. B.

The girls’ gym program in L.P.H.S. offers a wide variety of activities, especially since unusually good equipment for the individual sports is available. In the fall the gym classes go to Kiwanis Field for hockey practice. During the winter the program includes square dancing, tumbling, basketball, volley- ball, and trampoline work. Track and field events at Kiwanis Field are held in the spring gym classes. The winner of each event in each class participates in an after school meet which awards ribbons to the cham- pions. Other spring sports are tennis, softball and archery. A feature attraction of the gym program this year is the new gymnasium. The LaPorte High School G.A.A. is a division of the Indiana League of High School Girls’ Athletic Associations. The object of the league is to stimulate participation in girls’ athletics and to promote ideals of health and sportsmanship. Thirty-two girls belong to our G.A.A. Each Thursday G.A.A. sponsors sports activities in the gym for any girls interested. Here the G.A.A. girls earn po:nts by participating in vol- leyball, basketball, tumbling, or working on the trampoline. Fifty points are required for a G.A.A. pin, 100 points for numerals, 200 points for a maple leaf, 2 50 for a chevron and 3 50 for a plaque which is the state G.A.A. award. Each year the plaque winners attend an Award Winner’s Day at an Indiana college. G.A.A. began the year’s activities with an initiation held in November at a cabin in Galena Township. Sixteen new members went through the initiation stunts. In the fall four G.A.A. girl went to Huntington, Indiana, to participate in the State Archery Meet. They were Judy Hutton, Jonadenc Cole, Jean Breese and Nancy Kindig. Just before Christmas the LaPorte G.A.A. was host to thirteen G.A.A. groups from this district for a Play Day.” The activities of the day included practicing new volleyball skills, attending a lunch- eon with discussion groups and playing volleyball tournaments. On April 6, G.A.A. took a bus trip to Chicago where they visited the Museum of Science and In- dustry and attended the Ice Capadcs. The annual G.A.A. Spring Camp was held this year at Tippecanoe State Park on May 11 and 12. G.A.A. yearly publishes an article in the L.P.H.S. Sports Summary. Page fifty-eight wife19 mm Joyce Doane, Carmine Griffis, and Shirley Bull line up to aim at the bull’s eye on the archery range. Basketball is one of the favorite winter sports in the girls’ gym classes. Activities Participation in the many school clubs brings into FOCUS each student individually as he works on committees and plans programs. The many clubs give students a chance to express themselves in hob- bies, plan for future occupations, and render services to the school. Page sixty Our band and orchestra mix classics and hit tunes The band under the direction of Mr. Foreman showed improvement this year and lived up to its past reputation of being one of the best concert bands in the state.

The Swing Choir presented a program of Christmas music and songs from the repertoire which they use when they travel at the December meeting of the high school PTA. The Swing Choir travels widely The Swing Choir has been very active this year. The Choir was very pleased that they were invited to perform at Governor Handley’s inauguration in Indianapolis. The Swing Choir presented many out-of-town pro- grams this year for conventions. Trips were taken to Gary, Rochester, Culver, Fort Sheridan, and Tipton and a program was also presented at Beatty Memorial Hospital. The choir did a program for the annual Gary Chamber of Commerce dinner. Four programs were presented throughout the year in Indianapolis for the Scottish Rite Cathedral and the Farm Bureau Con- vention. Members arc chosen from superior members of the other three school choirs and practice about three times a week, but receive no credit. One of the inter- esting things about this organization is the well styled and very becoming outfits in which the choir appears. Mr. Simpson, well liked by Swing Choir members, enjoys directing the unusual group. Page sixty-eight HONOR SOCIETY Row one: P. Stoffcr, M. Wcinstock, L. Smith, J. I.cmpkc, B. Shields, A. Wilk, C.

The teachers vote on them on the basis of service, leader- ship, and character. During the initiation new members take the Na- tional Honor Society Pledge. The L.P.H.S. Honor Society has moneymaking projects throughout the year. They usually sponsor a dance. Also they award three $100 scholarships annually. Mr. Hyde is the sponsor of the honor society. Our athletic teams play better if our school shows a good spirit. The Pep Commitcc attempts to boost the school spirit. At the beginning of the school year, this group auditioned potential cheerleaders and places the best candidates’ names on the ballot. This committee plans and carries out our many pep sessions. One of the novel skits this year was entitled It.” Our pep sessions have been improved this year, due to the work of the Pep Committee. PEP COMMITTEE Row one: R. Cooper, J. McCorkcl, P. Evory, D.

Each girl attended one meeting of AAUW, Woman’s Liter- ary or Business Girls. Attending these meetings gives the girls a chance to meet the women of the community. They find that LaPorte women participate in a variety of activ- ities in addition to their jobs or housework. Miss Bcesley sponsors the Girl Representatives. The Senior class elected its most outstanding boys to attend the meetings of the LaPorte service clubs. The idea of students mingling with LaPorte’s prom- inent professional men and business men has seemed to work out very well. These boys take turns visiting the weekly meetings of Rotary, Lions or Kiwanis Club. Mr. Hargrave is the sponsor of this group. SENIOR BOY REPRESENTATIVES Row one: N. Moosey, H. Ramp, B. Hupp, R.

The Student Government is the most important functioning organization in L.P.H.S. During the past year, with the co-operation of the teachers and the student body, many problems have been solved. The increasing efficiency of the monitors and the suc- cessful operation of Student Court are but a few of the accomplishments of the Student Government this year. STUDENT GOVERNMENT Row one: J.

Debate Club is composed of people who are inter- ested in debate. Many of them take part in contest debates sometime during the year. The people who participate in inter-scholastic debate travel to various tournaments in Indiana and Illinois. The debaters earn their funds by working in the concession stands during football games. Miss Brendel is the sponsor of the debaters. The National Forensic League is an organization which seeks to encourage student participation in various speech activities. These activities include con- test debate, discussion, interpretation, declamation, extemporaneous speaking, radio speaking and oratory. Students receive points for participating in these activities. A student must have 25 NFL points to become a member. Each year NFL tournaments are held at various locations throughout the United States. Miss Brendel is also the sponsor of this organization. Page seventy-two our speakers and dramatists work hard The Stage Crew has a very important role in every play or musical performance that is staged in our auditorium. Under the direction of Mr. Munson, the crew’s sponsor, the stage hands move quickly and quietly behind the curtain in their white uniforms. The Stage Crew not only moves props and changes scenery, but it also operates an effective lighting system. The Stage Crew also experiments with colored lights. This has proved very beautiful and useful in recent performances. An organization which honors outstanding stu- dents in the speech department is Tau Sigma Chi. Debaters, amateur actors and actresses, radio announ- cers and members of the technical crew belong to this club. To earn money for speech trips, members work in the concession stands during football season with the Debate Club. One of the highlights of the year is a theatre trip to a Chicago play. Miss Elkin, Miss Brcn- del, Miss Kellogg and Mr. Munson sponsor this club. STAGE CREW R. Francis, R. Taddcucci, R. Post, Mr. Munson, A. Bigger . D. Dalrymplc, R. Curry, W.

Hutton Many civic projects are aided by the Girl Reserves Girl Reserves is the largest organization in L.P.H.S. with a majority of all the sophomore, junior and sen- ior girls belonging. The membership is open to all girls except freshmen. The only other requirement is that each girl must earn a certain number of points each year in order to attend the club’s social func- tions. The girls may earn points by helping teachers, working at the T.B. office, bringing gifts for the Beatty Christmas box, working at basketball con- cessions, making and putting up posters and appear- ing on club programs. Recognize any of these hobos? Some of them are your classmates, being initiated into G.R. In May of '56, the annual Mother-Daughter Des- sert was held with the theme, Symphony of Flow- ers.” Early this fall, things started off with a big bang when the sophomores and other new members were initiated. They had to dress as hobos and perform a number of stunts. On the following school day the initiates appeared looking rather unglamorous with pale faces and uncurled locks. The monthly noon meetings of Girl Reserves have had to be altered this year because of the double noon hour. Now a meeting is held each noon hour once a month in the High School auditorium. Judy Haag, Mary Ann Theodore, Pat Koziatek, and Connie Schick watch at Miss Ann Lee, a representative of the Patricia Steven’s Finishing School, advises Janet Lempke about her hair Jo at the Girl Reserve Mother-Daughter Dessert. One of the major projects of the year was assisting in the Crippled Children Drive. The girls spent many hours filing, typing and stuffing envelopes for this. The biggest event of this year was the Christmas Formal, held December 20 in the new gym. The theme was Happy Holiday Ball.” Phil Reed’s band provided the music. JUNIORS Row one: G. Binder. P.

Piper Thinking of the future, In the fall of 1953, several girls interested in nurs- ing as a profession asked if they might form a Future Nurses club. They received permission and proceeded to form the club. All money-making projects are directed toward raising money for a $50 scholarship for a senior who plans to enter nursing school. A float depicting the Sliccrs giving the South Bend Washington Panthers their medicine” was created by FNA for the homecoming parade. Future Teachers of America is an organization which helps those boys and girls who plan to enter the teaching field. The club meets every two weeks and usually at each meeting a program is presented. To raise money for the scholarship which is pre- sented annually to a graduating senior who plans to become a teacher, the FTA sponsored a dance, Rust- ling Rhythm.” Members of FTA attended a confer- ence at Manchester College and a state FTA meeting at Indianapolis.

The club sent a portfolio containing informa- tion, pictures and other items of interest to Okinawa, an island in the Pacific. As a Christmas project the club painted plastic bags to sell. The club also held a party honoring new members. The Junior Red Cross is made up of representatives chosen from each seventh hour class. During the first part of the school year, they sponsored a membership drive for the American Red Cross. Members of a committee made tiny snowmen to be placed on Christmas dinner trays for Beatty Mem- orial Hospital. They also decorated and filled boxes with cookies, apples, oranges and other small presents for the County Home. The Junior Red Cross sent CARE boxes overseas in March. Mrs. Cameron is the club’s sponsor. JUNIOR RED CROSS Row one: I. Arndt, P. Pudlo, J. Gerbrick, S. Sawaluk, S. Bealor, M. Magnuson, J. Boniface, J. Anderson, D. Metcalf Row two: G. Strauss, J.

At the club’s third evening meeting, the new mem- bers were sold as slaves to older members. The next day at school these slaves” appeared in Roman cos- tume and worked for their masters during that day. They did jobs such as carrying books and running errands. The Latin Club also had a very novel Christmas party. Their bake sale, held in January, was a huge success. Mrs. Russell and Miss Horne are the sponsors of this club. Page eighty-two that languages are fun The Spanish Club is open to all who arc studying or have studied Spanish. This year the club started having one meeting a month at a member’s home and another meeting at noon. For Christmas this year they gave a box of toys to the firemen for underprivileged children. During Pan American Week they had an excellent exhibit in the main display case. Miss Muntman, the Spanish teacher, sponsors this club. The French Club is purely a social club. The club has a monthly meeting which is held at one of the member’s homes. At these meetings members speak only in French, play games in French and once in a while enjoy French refreshments. The French Club has charge of the main display case each Christmas. The display they create always features a creche, the French nativity scene. Miss Dick, the French teacher, sponsors this club.

Brown Interesting fields lead us to more study, The objectives of the Social Studies Club arc to acquaint members with local and state history and government, to study contributions of various races and nations to civilization and to promote better international understanding. Some of the activities of this club are encouraging interest in the United Nations by attending the United Nations Festival in Chicago and raising money to present a $100 scholarship to a graduating senior. One of the newest clubs in school is the Bi-Phi- Chem Club. Membership is based on grades, interest in science and the desire to work on science projects. The aim of the club is to promote interest in science and provide an opportunity for experimentation. There arc fourteen members in the charter club.

Meeting twice a month, the members spend a busy evening working in pencil or water color from club models, still life or landscape in memory studies, or in comparing and discussing hobby crafts. This year the club had charge of the Christmas tableaux in arranging backgrounds, choosing models and planning each scene. Mrs. Thomas is the club sponsor. These junior leaders contribute much to the sum- mer 4-H club program in LaPortc. Each girl has a club of younger boys or girls to direct. Besides help- ing them with their cooking, sewing, or baking, they teach them how to lead songs, direct recreation and use parliamentary procedure. During the winter the girls meet each month to learn more about the subject matter they teach dur- ing the summer and are taught how to present it by the demonstration method. Besides all of this, each girl carries one or more projects of her own. Mrs. Dring is the club’s sponsor. Page eighty-five D. Sabic, sports editor; S. Bortz, as- signment editor; M.

People This section brings into FOCUS the students, teachers, and school personnel of LPHS. The follow- ing pages depict the people who participate in all the before-mentioned events and activities. Each of these people has an important part in every phase of school life. Last fall, the freshmen elected Bob Poli- kowski, president; Dave Parker, vice- president; and Joyce Goeltzenleuchter, secretary-treasurer; to lead them through the year. Miss Gourlcy was their class sponsor. On January 17, the mid-years were welcomed into the class. In the sophomore class election, Dick Johnson was elected president; Georgia Pantclis, vice-president; and Nancy Lewis, secretary-treasurer. They chose Miss Litz for their class sponsor.

We elected during our freshman year: Gene Gierke, president; Bob Kneislcy, vice president, and Betsy Doeppers, secretary-treasurer. At last we moved out of the ranks of green freshmen and began our roles as sophomores. Our officers for that year were Chuck Asmus, president; Karen Kucstcr, vice-president, and Carolyn Rutz, secretary-treasurer. We now approached the biggest year of our high school career. We were at last considered upperclassmen.” As juniors we shouldered our biggest responsibility, plan- ning the Junior-Senior Prom. We had loads of fun decorating the Civic, and also con- sidered it quite a privilege to be excused from classes to help with the decorations. The officers who helped us make our junior year a success were Tom Curtis, president; Tom Hall, vice-president; Betsy Doeppers, secretary, and Ruthie Cooper, treasurer. The day finally came—we were high and mighty seniors. With the help of Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Bernard, we worked hard sponsoring the after-game and seasonal dances. We elected Burl Shubert, president; Don Lambert, vice president; Karen Kucstcr, secretary, and Carolyn Rutz, treasurer, as our officers this year.
