. . .rei wddentalents The 1972-1973 school year was unique, different from any other in many ways. New students, under chonging school policy, odded their own flare and flavor to the his- tory of La Porte High School. Policy changes were numerous. After- noon study holls seemed empty, as Seniors received the privilege to legally cut dass. Warm weather and fresh air lured restless students from the cafeterias to the front entrance during lunch. The first February break refreshed everyone, while Sectional break did not materialize. What did moteriolize was o flurry of activities that developed the interests and talents of the student body. We won and lost the Bell, and then asked that Bell competition be extended to baseball. The school service clubs. Boys' Service Club and Girl Reserves, aided the community in varied ways — raking leaves, collecting for the March of Dimes, preparing for the dedication of the hospital. Trock practice, play rehearsals, and term papers exhausted many busy students. The person who entered LPHS in August left as a different individual in June, as the experience and maturity gained by par- ticipation in and out of school helped pre- pare them for the responsibilities of the ever-approaching odult world. 4

ENCOUMER£ATtAPORTEUtGUSCHOOL. . . Life at La Porte High School in 1973 was a product of a reoction between element . Eoch element lay sleeping . . wait- ing to be molded, guided, enriched. Then in blending, the latent trait of each element were extracted and developed to form LPHS 1973. The first element wa La Porte High School. Eoch facility of the school pos- sessed dormant qualities. A map of Mexico, on oven, or a new trampoline sat in rest. Closed books, unsharpened pencils, unused chairs — images of a building that slept. The second element was the student body. Each mind that entered LPHS also pos- sessed dormant qualities. For some, it was the beginning of a three-year exploration; for others, the end wos only 284 days away. On August 28. 1972, a growing voice, a developing athlete, a maturing intellect entered element one and the reoction began. Two imoges, a building and a person, both latent with a variety of strengths and talents, were about to form LPHS 1973. 3
