OUTTERSON MONTAUK LIGHT i795 In 1795 this historic lighthouse was built on Mon-tauk Point to guide the ocean vessels around the treacherous rocks. Today the structure still stands guard, casting its beams over the dangerous waters. LAWRENCIAN 938 Lawrence, Long Island, New York Published By The Students of Lawrence High School C foreword FROM that by-gone day when Henry Hudson first viewed Long Island, a thickly-wooded Indian hunting ground, until today when the structures of stone and steel are rapidly rising, giving form to an immense exposition, the New York World’s Fair of 1939, which will display the wonders of our age, countless events have taken place. These events—the history of Long Island— constitute the theme of this Lawrencian. “No profit grows where no pleasure is taken,” the immortal hard, Shakespeare, said of learning. Like a geometric axiom, this statement holds as true today as the day it was uttered, four centuries ago. Those who have striven industriously and whole-heartedly have made of their days spent within these halls of learning, a cherished volume of memory whose spirit we have attempted to incorporate in this book. It is those people who have written this Lawrencian, not a chosen few; what has happened here will be engraved in their hearts forever. It is hoped that the conquests and achievements which they have made and the experience and knowledge which they have gained will benefit them, so that, in the%words of Omar Khayyam, “they will spread wide their mantles, so that when the gods rain gold, they may gather theirs.” [ + ] Qontents DEDICATION VIEWS ADMINISTRATION GRADUATES CLASSES FEATURES ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS ADVERTISEMENTS [5] Dedication w T E DEDICATE to Miss Ellen Marie Jensen, in appreciation of the services which she has generously and willingly given to the school and to the students, and in esteem for her friendly advice and understanding which she is always ready to offer, this I()$8 Lawrencian. [«] IN ELLEN MARIE JENSEN, Lawrence High School is fortunate in having a teacher of no little ability. Possessed of a scholarly mind and charming personality, Miss Jensen creates an interest and respect, not only for her subject but for herself. Add to these qualities a clear, pleasant voice and a certain unmistakable dignity and you really understand her success as a teacher. Speaking for the faculty, as well as for the students, we are glad for her comradeship with us. Leslie A. Outterson [7] THE “HALF MOON” 1609 Long Island’s history begins on a September day in 1609 when Henry Hudson and his men on the “Half Moon” cruised along the stretch of shore we know now as Coney Island. They explored some of the coastal plains of western Long Island and drew some rough sketches of them. Based on Hudson's plans, the first Dutch fur trading posts on the Island were established. S.ujARrjep PATROON SYSTEM 1652 As Long Island was a Dutch possession until 1664, the Patroon System of agricultural development was practiced along the North Shore. To encourage settlement, the proprietors, or “patroons,” were granted enormous acreage which they were to divide among their farmers. It was under this arrangement that most of the territory bordering the Long Island Sound was settled. ADMINISTRATION CAtr. Jdawrence U. 'Dodd We are certain that such a popular and fine personage as Mr. Dodd needs very little introduction to any of us. Telling how he came to Lawrence as a chemistry teacher and later, after a few years had passed, merited the post of superintendent is simply relating an old though extremely beloved tale. He surely has made a very welcome place for himself in the hearts of all Lawrence and all of us are justly proud of our superintendent, a fair and square fellow. [H] z3iCr. £ecil Q. EhtacThonald In Mr. MacDonald we have a beloved principal and a dependable adviser. This year marks his silver anniversary as principal o Lawrence High School—twenty-five years of conscientious, devoted service to our school. It is fitting that the Lawrencian be the medium used to convey to him the congratulations of the student body on this occasion. All those who come in contact with him have reason to feel proud of his record of a quarter-century of untiring leadership. It is the sincere wish of the students and faculty that his ready humor, sympathy, and advice may continue to be available for many years to come. JMiss Elsie 7 . ejf 't While a member of the Lawrence High faculty, Miss I efft made her first and ever-growing start, through her endearing personality, in entering the hearts of the students. I hrough the years, while Lawrence High grew into the splendid organization it is today, she was tremendously popular, and now, while holding the post of Assistant Principal, she retains in every way this factor. Her expert assistance in our problems has become a familiar phase in our school, and in Miss Tefft we find not only a worthy friend hut also one who is “first in aid, first in charm, and first in the hearts of the students.” f 15] Juiculty RUTH E.

GRADUATES Fox the SECOND consecutive year the Valedictorian has been nicknamed “Bob ; this time, however, the honor goes to Robert Klein with the Regents’ average of 93.66%. 1 hrougnout ms rour years of high school Bob’’ has been outstanding in the field of athletics, scholarship, music, and drama. He has participated in Buskin Tournaments since 1935 5 has acted as electrician for the Buskins and Senior Play; was one of the first members of our school Band with its organization in 1935; s active in the school Orchestra; and became a member of the exclusive Honor Society in his Sophomore year. Not content with all that, Bob represented the school in Latin and Mathematics contests at New York University in 1937. He plays tennis, handball, and chess equally well; has been a laboratory assistant since the beginning of the term; and was elected Co-Editor-in-Chief of the 1938 Lawrencian. Bob's favorite avocation is leading the dance orchestra which he organized. “Bob intends to further his education after high school and hopes to attend Massachusetts Institute of Technology, there to major in chemical engineering. When martin marks entered Lawrence High School, it was evident that he was headed for high honors in his class, and he fulfilled these expectations, attaining the Enviable rank of Salutatorian with a 93.36% average. When he entered from Public School No. 5 in September, 1934, he immediately became one of the original members of the now famous Lawrence High School Band, besides joining the Chess Club. In his next year he engaged in a wealth of other activities, including the Math Club, of which he was president in 1937, the Chess Team, the Debating Society, and the School Orchestra. In his Junior Year, Martin entered a Mathematics contest and a Latin contest, both at New York University. Besides being a good student, he is interested in many sports, primarily swimming and tennis. For his career he has chosen law and he intends to go to Harvard College next year and afterwards to Harvard Law School. “Bill has long been one of our outstanding students and he justly deserves the high-ranking position that he holds in the senior class. His high average of 92-73% due to his marks in mathematics and science, in which fields he excels. In view of his aptitudes in these subjects, he intends to study chemical engineering, possibly at Stevens Institute of Technology, where he has already been accepted. He held the position of Junior Editor of the Lawrencian in 1937, and is this year’s Business Manager. This post is probably the most responsible student position in the school, for the control of all Lavirencian funds—and it is a large amount—lies in his capable hands. A favorite pastime of Bill’s is debating and he is one of the charter members as well as the Vice-president of the newly-formed Forum. Outside of school almost any day, one can find Bill engaged in a vigorous game of football, baseball, or basketball. In a word, he’s just a good, all-around fellow. ofalutatorian—'JfrCartin TftCarks Third Jfonor speaker—lVilliam f(ohn t [22] CATHERINE ATKIN Entered ’37 from Far Rockaway High School.

The club started its activities with the organization of a Ring and Pin Committee, to select the designs for senior rings, pins, and keys.

The Senior Class Club has sought to co-operate with all school functions and to do as much as possible towards supporting worthy school projects. They have succeeded in fulfilling these desires.

Having elected amiable Mr. Simmonds as faculty adviser, the Juniors immediately undertook the sponsorship for a school-wide ping-pong tournament, which gave every student an opportunity to win the cash prizes offered. Rachel Weisberger and Kenneth Levy were winners of the girls’ and boys’ divisions, respectively. The club, which acquired many new members at the start of the February term, also planned an outing and perhaps a dance as part of its social program. 1 his group of boys and girls appreciate the wonderful opportunities that Lawrence offers them, and will try to continue exemplifying the high standard which they have set for themselves.

This sales campaign, although not begun immediately upon the organization of the club, was successful from every point of view. Other projects contemplated by this group were the sponsoring of a cake sale and of a question “bee”; however, these plans had to be abandoned because of lack of time. Another of the “Soph” activities was the giving of a party, financed by the sale of the magic slates. The aim which the Sophomore Class Club has sought to accomplish this year is to give its members one of the most important requisites for education—the facilities for wise use of leisure time. Its success in achieving this will be shown bv what its members do next year.

However, the classmen thought of the unique idea of selling emblems bearing a picture of the school—something which every student with school spirit was proud to wear. The club also planned a picnic to be held later in the season. 1 he chief purposes of the Freshman Club were to assist its members in gaining as much as possible from their first year in high school and to do things which will benefit them later on in school. [51] TALLY-HO 1790 The line along the Westchester shore of Long Island Sound to Rye was one of the several colonial stage routes. Such routes on Long Island were in existence only a few years. We may safely say that staging in New York did not begin until the Revolution. This mode of travel disappeared slowly from the years 1840 to 1850 due to newer and more comfortable means of transportation.

Olga Candreva, ’38 [55] Senior Qlass 3Tistory TN THE FALL OP' 1934, a tribe of wild Indians, known as the “Fresh-maniacs,” invaded the peaceful domain of old Lawrence High. With shrill war whoops and similar demonstrations, they took possession of the promised land. Finding organization necessary for self-preservation, the “Freshoshonee” federation was formed, with Arthur Lipkint as chief of the war council, Sue Van Praag his aide-de-camp, Paul Nebenzahl, keeper of the spoils, and Desiree Bucchioni as chieftain in charge of tribal communications. With the passing of a year, the yet fierce wild men acquired the rudiments of civilization, having imbibed within their resilient topknots the realization of the fact that running in the halls was absolutely not tolerated by the big white chief, even if a prospective victim were in view. In this stage of their assimilation, they were known as “Sophomorons.” At the beginning of the third year, in keeping with times, a new organization was formed, whose members comprised the “Juniatic” tribe, with William Kohn as chief, Selma Schapira as the lower chieftain, Stuart Brown as the wampum keeper, and Babette Freirich as the corresponding squaw. Then they entered upon the fourth and last year of their reign of terror. By this time, the erstwhile savages had become the sophisticated products of civilization. In fact, they adopted the tribal name of “Senior-phisticates.” The maidens increasingly became the centers of attraction, and one-time warriors could be seen on all sides, strolling the corridors with these darlings of humanity, gently being tomahawked by Cupid.

New York:—Today in the auditorium of Lawrence High School there assembled one of the most distinguished gatherings of men and women of the country. It was the Class of ’38 of Lawrence High School which had returned for the Silver Jubilee Reunion. Jeanne Haas Elected Mayor of New York City CHOSEN BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY JEANNE HAAS, one of our Lawrence alumni, has just been elected the first woman mayor of New York City. Her victory is attributed to the shrewd political genius of JEROME RICHFIELD, leader of Tammany Hall. One of our new mayor’s first acts was the appointment of JOSEPH CATROPA to the position of Police Commissioner of New York City. Mr. Catropa predicts that he will rid New York of its crime, especially juvenile speeders a la strauser. ELEANOR OHMAN, SHARI GOTTESMAN, and JOSEPHINE LICURSE, assistants to Boss Richfield, state that he selected Miss Haas on the spur of the moment, after rejecting many tried and seasoned politicians such as WILLIAM FLOOD and NICK .LUCIERE. Among her other appointments were CLARA CAR-DON, Comptroller; STANLEY COHEN, President of the City Council; RUDOLPH TUDDA, District Attorney of New York City. Mayor Haas immediately formed a new Boxing Commission with JANE SANGER, head commissioner. Others elected to the commission were JANE CANIS, JUNE WAITZFELD-ER, RUTH WATTS, ELEANOR CHAVE. and MARGUERITE HOGAN. MANY PROMINENT SCIENTISTS PRESENT Three Nobel Prize Winners Attend Two prominent figures in the realm of science, Professors STANLEY BLOCH and WILLIAM KOHN, were present at the Jubilee. They are the winners of the Nobel Prize in 1963 for chemistry in recognition of their joint discovery of Element No. 87 which they promptly named Lawrencium (La). Others present were JAMES MUNVES, President of the American Association for the Advancement of Science; JAMES STERN, General Manager of the New York Branch of Du Pont and ROBERT KLEIN who claims that he has developed artificial photosynthe-sis. Professor MANUEL CIZEK of the University of Chicago, and Nobel Prize Winner for Physics in 1963 for the discovery of the key to atomic energy was seen in a heated discussion with JOHN FRANKS, inventor of a new stratoplane which will cut the required time for transoceanic service in half. Mr. Franks predicted that with atomic energy he can adapt his plane for future transplanetary service. When salutations had been exchanged and the hubbub had quieted down to a murmur, the meeting was called to order by the Chairman, JACK KRAUSS, Governor of the State of New York. Divine blessing was asked by Rev. WESLEY SHEFFIELD, President of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. LORRAINE FOX. Vice-president of J. P. Morgan Company was unanimously elected Secretary of the Silver Jubilee. The Secretary then read a list of members absent among whom were JOSEPH MAHR. Internal Revenue Collector; RUSSELL NEWBERRY, Governor of the State of Georgia; MITCHELL NOWAK, Vice-president of Prudential Life Insurance Corporation; JANE EDSELL. Physical Director at Vassar; SYLVIA GREENBERG, hat designer for McCall’s; AR-LINE WEN DEL, FRAN-CINE PRICE, and MIRIAM SCHILLER, directors of Consolidated Slums, Inc.

Although at the time of their graduation little thought was given to the potentialities of the students, almost every one of the individuals of this class has accomplished something worthy of note in this world of ours. So outstanding have the alumni of this class proved that this June the twenty-fifth anniversary of their graduation, a banquet was arranged to welcome these distinguished individuals back to our school. Let us hope that in the future other classes such as this shall graduate from our school. SOCIETY NOTES ALBERT BEDELL, the ping-pong ball magnate, announces his engagement to the Princess Elizabeth von Dusenheim-Li ppe-S c hw a r t z-en-Biesterfeldt-Schwonk of the Principality of Lichen-stein.

After the meeting was adjourned, the gathering broke up into small groups where they reminisced over their high-school careers. Among the many prominent individuals present at our Jubilee was ALBERT BIAMONTE, editor of the Daily Worker and Communist candidate for President. Meanwhile, in one corner, HERMAN COHEN, our suave Ambassador to Tibet was seen arguing wildly with JOSEPH CROVELLA, the Sheriff of Suffolk County, over the merits of the new book, “The Psychology of Foo,” written by Dr. SIDNEY GEIST, who, by the way, has just successfully completed an appendectomy o� Mrs. Plushpuss’s pet frog, Alice. FRANK CASTAGNARO and FRANK SARRO of the U. S. Ryder Cup Team were deeply involved in a conversation with FLORENCE FERRO, sports reporter for the New York Times over her recent article concerning them. IRWIN SLATER, Florida real-estate agent, and MAURICE HABERMAN, a real-estate agent from Los Angeles, were having a heated discussion about the comparative advantages of the two states when they were rudely interrupted by KENNETH KLEINMAN, President of Southwestern Mines Inc. and of the Arizona Chamber of (Continued on page 65) MENTAL PABULUM MANY POLITICAL FIGURES PRESENT As might be expected, all the political figures present gathered together for an informal discussion of their views on current political problems. Although MARTIN MARKS, Chief Justice of the United States, and CHARLES FINKELHOR, Chief Court Reporter of the United States Supreme Court, did not have much time since they were compelled to leave for Washington, D. C. long before the reunion was ended, they stayed as long as their time would allow in order to participate in some of the activities. Incidentally they had to go to Washington to be present at the trial of the Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Portland Railroad vs. the State of Vermont. Also present at the trial will be PAULINE BRONSTEIN, Governor of the State of Vermont, and JOSEPH JACKSON, president of the above-mentioned railroad. DOROTHY GRAINGER, j confidential secretary to the, President of the United [ States, was overheard asking CARL GROSSMAN, Governor of California, whether he had any intention of running for the Presidency in 1964. A slight note of discord' was furnished by STUART BROWN, Budget Director of the United States, when discussing the domestic money situation (strictly domestic) with his wife. LEROY SENFTENBERG, United States Ambassador to the Court of St. James and JOHN LEWIS, our charge d’affaires in London, were seen discussing our chances of collecting the war debt. Mr. Senftenberg told your reporter confidentially that his negotiations have reached a point where he is reasonably (Continued on page 66) Grads Participate in Television Review At the height of the reunion, the Transcontinental Trucking Corporation arrived with a big surprise. JOE MCKINLEY, president of the corporation, and his staff composed of TONY CASTAR-DI, ALFRED DE SIBIO, and SAL GAGLIANO, brought in a complete television broadcasting outfit provided by ALVIN GALLANT, president of the I. T. C. The apparatus was assembled in the gymnasium under the supervision of master engineers, WILLIAM KREI-ZEL and JOSEPH DEAN. While there thus occupied, the powerful spot lights were erected by I. T. C.’s chief electricians, AUGUST PALLES-CHI, JOSEPH CHIMENTI, and GAETANO LICURSI. With all this equipment being assembled, GEORGE PONTE, head announcer of the above-mentioned organization, asked the gathered assemblage to draw slips from a hat. The lucky ones (those who selected the marked slips) prepared themselves for a special surprise broadcast in the portable dressing rooms under the competent aid of HELENE DRUCKER and HELEN SILVERMAN, the corporation’s cosmeticians. The selected people then presented an impromptu performance before the staring lens of the television camera. A trio composed of those three canaries of the ether, MARGARET HANLON, EDYTHE MURPHY, and MAE HURLEY, swung that current favorite, “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling.” The next performer was PERCY ASHBY, that popular “shufflin’ fool” of television and Broadway. Incidentally, Percy is performing for (Continued on page 66) [65] Class of '38 Returns For Silver Jubilee (Continued from page 6Jf) Commerce, who drowned them out with loud expostulations about the benefits of Arizona. Much to the surprise of all, Mr. Kleinman was well aided by his twin children, Sonja H. and Fred A. Kleinman. WARREN SCADRON, the well-known artist, has just announced his government appointment to paint the unfinished murals in the Post Office Building in Washington, D. C. They were started, as you all know, by Rockwell Kent, way back in 1936. DONALD SELIGMAN, coach of the champion Michigan football team was seen showing JACK MYERS, heavyweight boxing champion of the world, and Man Mountain BILL WEISS-BERGER, the heavyweight wrestling champ, some of his new football plays. Much to the amusement of the masculine element, LAWRENCE KLEIN, editor of Inquire and his chief artist, MARK SYRKIN, gave a demonstration of the production of Inquire. MILTON RUTTER, ringmaster of Barnum Bailey’s Circus promised to write an article to appear in the magazine soon. MARGARET WOOD, editor of the New York Herald Tribune, and DESIREE BUCCHIONI, political commentator for the Tribune, interviewed HARRY ABBOTT, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers. He predicted that this year due to their new management and the acquisition of MYRON BREAKSTONE from the Philadelphia Athletics they would obtain the National League Pennant. At the conclusion of the reunion, the Rev. Wesley Sheffield delivered a solemn benediction.

When we last saw them, WILLIAM CITTADINO, chief producer, and Mrs. Miles O’Fillum, the former ELEANOR PHILLIPS of Lawrence and assistant producer, were still arguing over which Indian language to use. Meanwhile it seemed that SUE HURLEY, the chief dressmaker, had the Indian sign on HELEN LANGNER, the chief cosmetician, because of the scarcity in costumes.

(greetings to the Qlass oj 1938 Graduates:— WHEN free education was established by our forefathers as the rights of their children, they envisaged a kind of education designed to provide training in the tools needed by the civilization of the day. The background of this education was a rigorous home training and opportunity for an appreciation of civic duty growing out of the newness and isolation of the country. The need of each home to build and create most of the necessities of life further increased the demands on their education. The complexity of our civilization has grown greatly, and our culture has rapidly-changed. Our education, while slow to follow, has gradually changed its methods of training in the basic skill and in the analysis of its difficulties. It has slowly broadened its program and because of the gradual disappearance of natural educational opportunities has been forced greatly to increase its scope. Into our elementary schools came the activities programs, creative work, development of self-expression and the other phases of our present-day education. Broadened exploratory courses and training to meet varying degrees of needs and interests came into the program of our high schools. Vocational and cultural curricula were provided and designed to prepare boys and girls to take their places socially and economically as adjusted and responsible members of a community in a manner satisfying to themselves and their fellow men. In order that we best fit our youth to take their places in the world, the basic idea of our educational policies must be to develop training which will provide opportunities for all children to secure a maximum of success and development in the use of his or her talents. It should be planned to enable a young man to take his best possible place in life, whatever his gifts may be, as an effective factor in his community. Since civilization continues to grow in complexity and our culture rapidly changes, it will be necessary that our educational policies continue to progress. As members of the graduating class you have experienced many of the changes produced in the attempt to make our educational programs fit the needs of all of the boys and girls. You have played an excellent part in the development of our public schools. As student citizens, who were led by the spirit of your school, you have played with distinction various individual roles and are now about to take your stations in the drama ahead of you, either in institutions of higher learning or in the life of the community. If you would have people believe in you as men and women, continue to develop those qualities that make for character. Lawrence V. Dodd Superintendent of Schools [67] :'Professor “Knowls' zJXCotto PROFESSOR KNOWLS was very, very tall. He was much too tall to sit behind his paper-cluttered desk, which was styled for a teacher of more moderate proportions; Professor Knowls was not of moderate proportions, either in his height, or in his personality. There was never any doubt but that Knowls was unique. Most people are unique because they like to be unique, but Knowls had something more elusive. Every day he came to class with the same expectancy which, strangely enough, increased instead of decreased as the day progressed. Sometimes his classes became lectures on philosophy, his own philosophy, which was always a pleasant substitute for theorems and propositions. 1 remember the time Knowls discussed impressionistic art. How it all started is as undecipherable as the mystery of how many circles were drawn on the day of Oct. 17. However, once the cue was given, nothing else mattered. Knowls generally began a thing quietly. I recall that he had been mumbling incoherently when suddenly he said pointedly, “People are never conscious of the progress their generation is making.” We all sensed that we were in for more philosophy from the abstract look on Knowls’ face which always came when the old professor got into the mood. “Take art for example,” he said quietly, “today most people think contemporary-art is foolish. That’s not unusual; other generations have thought the same thing. Personally I believe in modern art because it does express ideas, which is the purpose of art. When art is successful in conveying ideas everybody is happier; the artist, because he has achieved his purpose, and the critic because he feels a ‘kindred’ spirit. Certainly anything which increases happiness is worthwhile. Happiness is paramount, because the goal of everything is happiness. Happiness is the chief aim of all of you in 1938, and happiness will still be your aim in 1988. Science is somewhat similar to art. The benefits of science are quite obvious, but it’s harder to prove the benefits of art. However, the two go together; the essence of art follows«the parade of science. “Modern art is exploring, mostly by meaningless contrasts which aren't supposed to make sense, but which are bridging the gap between thoughts in terms of morsels and ideas in terms of atoms. There, I think, is the basic expression of modernistic art. Once the fire-works of the cubists and surrealists stop exploding and the whole panorama arranges itself, then you’ll find out what the jumble was about. Now 1 may be all wrong. 1 realize very well that 1 am now too old to speak optimistically without causing people to fear that I am reverting to childhood. I will take that chance, because it is fun to prophesy. It's especially fun to prophesy to you who will some day know how wrong I am. By that time, you will no longer be able to try to convince me that I was wrong.” Often, the old professor talked about other things too. One thing, I’ve never forgotten, was his motto: “Though I forget what I have learned, May I never forget to learn.” [68] James Reid, ’39 (jetting zAlong with :People rT''HE aims of secondary education have been constantly changing and must constantly change to meet the new conditions in our ever-changing world. 1 have been reading lately the lists of objectives of secondary education, written by Roy L. Butterfield; and one of them I wish to bring to your attention because it is eternal: “The high school must strive to build in each student an agreeable personality, with a pleasant voice, good manners, a tolerant spirit, all resulting in the ability to get along successfully with the various types of individuals who make up a community.” Now how can we attain that desired end? There are dozens of books published on such subjects as how to make friends, etc.; and these are valuable in giving us specific directions and examples. But of what use is an agreeable personality if we lose it when we are thwarted in our desires and ambitions? Or of what avail are a pleasant voice and good manners if they disappear entirely in the heat of argument or conflict? Or what does a tolerant spirit amount to if it is only the result of mental or moral flabbiness? If we wish to be truly educated in this sense, we must go below all surface graces and strive for a truly tolerant spirit—the consideration of each of the persons with whom we come in contact as an individual, without regard to his race, creed, or color. VVe must strive for the real virtue of magnanimity. Harry Emerson Fosdick in his essay “Magnanimity” says: “When annoyance comes, our greater danger lies not in the wrong done us, but in the wrong we shall do to ourselves if we let ourselves be inwardly exasperated until our good will, serenity and poise are gone.” If we let slights and criticisms remain rankling within us, if we remember the wrongs we receive or think we receive, we certainly cannot get along with people; and eventually we shall not be able to get along with ourselves. The psychologists can tell us of thousands of cases of warped minds with “persecution complexes.” Now all of this does not mean that we must be weak or spineless. There are standards to be upheld; there are causes to be fought for. One of America’s greatest souls was Abraham Lincoln. The story of his life is filled with instances of his magnanimity. And yet because he had to be true to his conviction, he prosecuted the Civil War through four years to its bloody end. Whenever the thought of magnanimity comes to me, I see that rugged yet kindly face, and hear the words, “With malice toward none, with charity for all. . . .” He got along with people. C. C. MacDonald Principal [69] On :Being -JhCeticulous HE WAS a Senior in school, with a slight deficiency in credits but an overwhelming surplus of friends. Being one of those rare individuals who charge the atmosphere about them with good will, drawing others to him as to a magnet, he was unquestionably popular. But, on the many occasions that 1 had discreetly regarded him as he walked the halls with that poise and carriage so difficult to obtain, I detected a tinge of regret in my interest in him—regret because of the fact that he lacked that delicacy of personal appearance which might have so enhanced his personality and character. I felt that he was as a diamond, but, as yet, uncut. His tousled shock of nut-brown hair, his unkempt shoes with the golden luster of a hastily-applied polish striving for supremacy over a filmy coating of dust, his beautifully-colored necktie askew from a too rapid allocation to its proper position, were all tiny imperfections, as it were, in an otherwise harmonious whole. Most decidedly, he was one of the central luminaries in the little universe of the school; but how brighter he would have shown, how much finer his light would have been had he taken thought to polish himself free of these leeches of circumstance. And might we not say to ourselves, are we being held from appearing at our best by these shackles, these chains of selfdisrespect, which we can so easily throw off? Certainly, no one is a greater sinner in this respect than I, and how well 1 know that my light shines falteringly enough as it is! Speaking of our friend’s not hitting above par, as he might have, brings us to the all-inclusive subject of self-love. Everyone feels, deep down in his innermost self, that, although the world may not recognize the fact, nevertheless Clarky G. out in Hollywood really hasn’t any more on the ball than he, that the only reason Einstein gets front-page writeups while he, the small-town boy, only features in the gossip column is that the “Prof” has a corps of publicity writers pursuing his cause night and day, that, in short, he has within himself the latent power of a genius, if only he could reveal it. But, let us remember that a candle burning under a bushel profits nothing, and that a dull knife is useless no matter how high a grade of steel it contains. In all probability, we could rise above the crowd by sheer force of personality and character, as did our friend, but do we not want to aim as high as possible? “Hitch your wagon to a star” may be right, but how much wisdom it contains. Let us polish the hidden gems within us, not by being fastidious, but bv showing our orderliness of mind without. [70] Wesley Sheffield, ’38 The Abundant £ije IGH SCHOOL in every way attempts to prepare its students for life. Im- portant, of course, is the factual knowledge accumulated during the four years, hut even more essential in everyday life is the conversion of innate energies into good corrective habits which form the basis of well-balanced character and personality traits. Think of the many opportunities which the school gives you to develop good habits. Many of these must needs be forced upon you for your own good, for no large institution can exist without a few basic rules which govern smooth organization. Therefore punctuality, accuracy, respect for property, and maintenance of a satisfactory scholastic standard are required of each individual. These then are very tangible habits necessary both to success in business and in school. Education can not be equity for all but that which each student can digest and use in his own sphere of life. With this idea in mind our school has changed and expanded its curricula to meet the needs of the greatest number of students. Even the determining of a student’s course of study should create in him a most important habit of planning for the future. The definite necessity of having a goal towards which to work cannot be overemphasized. The school can. and, furthermore, does plan each pupil’s course of study which is an excellent beginning, but which becomes valueless unless the individual plans his own routine. Routine is an excellent habit to form and, successfully operated, gives time for both work and play. An important part of this routine must be the development of one’s powers of concentration on the subject matter at hand, be it work or play. Furthermore each individual must work out his own techniques of study. All this should lead to efficiency which should eventually become a habit. A student so many times forgets that this habit of efficiency or organization applies to his activities throughout the entire day. The efficient student, upon entering school either in the morning or at noon, saves steps and time by collecting all necessary books and materials so that he will be fully-prepared for that session of school. So many times a student thinks he is accomplishing a great deal because he has been rushing here and there every minute of his time. He should keep in mind that true efficiency is the accomplishment of a maximum amount of work with a minimum expenditure of energy. In addition to efficiency each student should make a point of forming the habits of neatntss both as to personal appearance and assignment, of honesty, clear thinking, open-mindedness, tolerance, ability to see cause and effect of problems, and the application of theory to practice. All these habits tend to make a well-trained or disciplined individual—one who is an asset to society and not a liability. In the words of Henry C. Link, “The abundant life can only be defined in terms of habits—that is character. Happiness never resides in what an individual has, but always in what the individual does. Most positively it comes from the personality traits which the individual develops.” Elsie Roana Tefft Assistant Principal [71] i7 ock Hall ROCK HALL, one of the most famous historical buildings of Long Island, is less ■ than two hundred feet from Lawrence High School. As one wanders through its well-kept gardens, he cannot help but think of the owners and visitors of this historical mansion in years gone by. One of the first owners of this building was Josiah Martin, a planter of Antigua, an island of the Lesser Antilles of the West Indies. Almost every Sunday, Josiah could be seen driving with his family on the rutty road to Hempstead, the nearest village of any size, to participate in services at St. George Church which was partly endowed by this generous proprietor. Then came the troublous times of the Revolution: The Martins were naturally Britishers, many of their relatives having held important posts in English parliament and government. Josiah’s nephew, also named Josiah, who was the last king s governor of North Carolina, took refuge with his uncle at the Hall. It is believed by some that Washington stopped at Rock Hall. We do know that “The Father of Our Country” stopped on Long Island to collect bonds for the good behavior of British occupants,” and we also know that Martin paid, or was, at least, required to post, a bond of five hundred pounds “for good behavior and to refrain from harboring Tories in his house.” Therefore, the great Washington may have stopped at Rock Hall in the performance of his duties. Upon his death, Josiah Martin willed the estate to his eldest son, Dr. Samuel Martin, an arrant Royalist who arranged social functions at Rock Hall which were courtlikc in their magnificence. Among the famous visitors at Rock Hall was the world-renowned English painter, John Singleton Copley, whose famous picture “Child With Dog” until recently hung on the wall of the hall. At least a dozen and probably more slaves were kept on the estate to provide for the comforts of the guests, because in those times to maintain an elegant household, a retinue of slaves was virtually required. m However, prosperous times soon faded away, and Rock Hall was left without occupants or conscientious owners. Dr. Martin had given Rock Hall to his sisters, Alice Martin and Mrs. Bannister. Mrs. Bannister gave her half to her daughter, Alice. Alice Bannister married William McNeil who was worthless and selfish. Mrs. McNeil, Alice Bannister, was thrown upon charity with her children. Suffering from cancer and unable to pay her board, the pitiful woman was given aid by Mary and Thomas Hewlett, who owned a small farm on the territory which is now Woodmere and Hewlett. In 1824 Thomas Hewlett bought Rock Hall for himself. The home was in truly a dilapidated state. Windows were broken, most of the plaster had cracked and fallen, and a large wood pile graced one end of the hall. Thomas Hewlett was a man of ability and under his hands and leadership things progressed rapidly. The Hewlett family has now owned Rock Hall for one hundred and twelve years. During this period they have restored the estate to its former prosperity and neatness. Rock Hall stands today—its split shingles and handhewn beams remain intact—a lonely memorial to the colorful days of the past. [72] Schuyler Schmuck, ’38 (guidance HAT is this Guidance that seems to be so much in the limelight these days? Let me try to answer this question by stating what it is not. Guidance is not something special, something added on to an already crowded curriculum. It is not a new fad or frill, for it has always been present. Teachers always have advised, suggested, helped their students. Now schools are so large, numbers are so great that teachers can know only a few students. Someone, somewhere in the school system, must co-ordinate activities, gather records, lay plans, and advise students and their parents on courses of study, etc., this advice being based on the plans and the desires and the abilities of the pupils. Hence Guidance has come in as a high-school department. It is an integral part of the modern school system. It gathers records and data of every character—scholastic, personality, interests, health, physical abilities, mental abilities, family, future educational and vocational plans. These facts are used as the bases for interviews with the students concerning their work, their plans. The counsellors suggest courses of study, outline the requirements of the courses desired, and plan for their being put into effect. The Guidance advisers do not stop at this point but follow the progress of the pupils regularly. If success is being achieved, encouragement is given. If success is not being won, adjustments of the programs are made in light of the difficulties laid bare. Thus the guidance service is a continuing one, trying to keep up with the progress of the pupil and to forecast his future. Before the time for the pupil to go away to college or some other school arrives, the Guidance department files his credentials for him with the Admission Offices of the colleges of his choice. It is well to have applications sent to two or more colleges as many students are going to college again and the colleges select the best; furthermore this fact makes imperative good scholastic work on the part of these pupils who wish to go to college. The Guidance counsellors have to emphasize this point very frequently. For the pupils not going to college the Guidance counsellors supply the same kind of service, trying to help those students prepare for work on leaving high school. Files of business and other schools are kept on hand. Possible positions are looked up, placement on a small scale is attempted. A class in Occupations is taught especially for those students going out to find work on leaving school. For the parents the Guidance department is the place to come for much the same information that the pupils seek there. The counsellors are available for interviews; they can arrange for parents to see the teachers and they can make needed changes in courses or classes. In the department are kept books concerning schools, colleges, and various occupations and professions. The Guidance department is, then, an integral part of the modern school system, supplying a service which attempts to have each boy and girl achieve the best in him and her for present and future success and happiness. Lyman W. Davison Guidance Director [73] ‘'Room Enough Cfor iAll Don’t crowd and push on the march of life Or tread on each other’s toes, For the world at best in its great unrest Is hard enough as it goes. Oh why should the strong oppress the weak Till the latter go to the wall? On this earth of ours, with its thorns and flowers, There is room enough for us all. LeRoy Senftenberg, ’38 On ‘Rushing It seems to me most strange, that men Should hasten to their destined end; ’Twould rather seem the other way, To gently live; prolong one’s stay Upon this earth. m To where the rush, oh, modern age? To After Life? To turn the page That marks the close of worldly life. The end of trouble; wars, and strife, To start anew? How can one know what next will he?

FREEDOM, according to the French at the time of their struggle for human liberties, was the “right to do anything which injures no one, the limits of which can be determined only by law, for law is the expression of the general will of the people.” According to one of the greatest scholars America has ever produced, Woodrow Wilson, “human liberty consists of perfect adjustments of human interest and human activities and human energies.” Freedom was a strange, new experiment given to the world when mankind possessed the chance to build a civilization upon a part of the world that was then an unknown quantity, discovered only when a sea captain wished to find a new trade route to a land of riches but found instead a new land—a land that was to blossom from the seed of freedom sowed in the hearts of its settlers—a land that was to encourage nations with its freedom that grew from generation to generation. To the anxious, fleeing refugees of great nations, America opened its lands, offered peace, security, and equality. To those who had suffered untold tortures of the mind and soul, America presented a chance at freedom so earnestly desired because the great nations of the world had forgotten what freedom was, had forgotten that it was a necessity man would fight for. These first freedom seekers founded America. The successful battle for freedom in America gave hope to the sufferers in Europe barely existing under the Old Regime, a rule that was cruel socially, politically, and economically. French ideas cherished originally by American comrades led to the overthrow of the autocracy and the bloody years that followed in Europe. All Europe regained courage and soon rebellion against tyranny crept over the continent as the web, spun first in America, spread to include all nationalities, races, and creeds. The Great War broke down autocracies and created a new freedom in destitute lands, but the cycle has swung around again, and now the free countries of Europe can be counted on both hands while human individuals struggle under the rule of one man who believes that he is capable of managing the emotions, lives, and interests of the people by laws that most definitely are not expressions of the general will of the people, the basic foundation of freedom. ye who once presented a land of freedom to the unfortunates of this European continent cannot once more open our country extensively, cannot aid by discovering new lands; but we can open our hearts and minds, showing the way to true liberty. So beware, Messrs. Dictators, because we in America still have open minds, clear thoughts, and brave hearts, all of which cry out to lead the way to liberty. We are not, cannot, be mistaken in our ideals and aims, Messrs. Dictators, or it surely would be our consciences that are uneasy, not vours. [75 1 Margaret Wood, ’.$8 [76] He K � ■ ruvt .

Long Island’s deep-sea whaling began here with a fleet of sixty or seventy whalers faring forth from this port annually. Situated on the eastern end of Long Island, Sag Harbor readily received sugar, rum, and molasses from the West Indies. Thus it became an important center for many shipping activities. ACTIVITIES [80] The :'Buskins HP HE BUSKINS CLUB, our renowned dramatic society, has an enviable reputa- tion. Due to the fact that membership is limited to those passing a severe trv-out test and then serving an apprenticeship, the members are the elite of the school. This year the members purchased pins to indicate their membership. At the meetings, which are held on the third Monday of every month, there is entertainment depicting the history and development of the drama of some country. The annual Buskin Tournament, held on Tuesday evening, December 21, 1937, was enthusiastically received by a near-capacity audience. The plays presented were “Aria da Capo” by Edna St. Vincent Millay, “Price of Coal” by Harold Brighouse, “Suppressed Desires” by Susan Glaspell, and “A Minuet” by Louis N. Parker. A sifver loving cup was donated to the club by the Parent-Teacher Association on which were inscribed the names of those giving the best performances, and the title of the best-liked play. The selection was made bv the votes of the audience. Isabel Cohen led the list by virtue of her delightful interpretation of Columbine in the winning play, “Aria da Capo.” Trailing close behind her, in order, were Gerald Rubenstein, Jean Silverman, and Ira Hirsh. In accordance with its yearly custom the club planned to see a Broadway play. “On Borrowed Time” was selected. The Buskins have had a very successful season. We wish them even greater triumphs in the days to come. [81] The £awrencian :'Board MR. LESLIE A.

Established to provide opportunity to pursue the study of mathematics beyond the limits of the class room, the club has, as a regular feature of its meetings, talks by members who have gone deep into some special subjects with which the others are unacquainted. To further interest the members, mathematical problems and puzzles are presented. At present the members are training for the annual Pi Mu Epsilon contest, in which students from New York and vicinity compete. The Math Team has high hopes this year because of the fact that it is starting training early. 'The 'fflrt £er ice -Teague The members of the Art Service League are students of the art classes who appreciate additional opportunity to draw. They stand ready at any time to assist other school organizations by making posters or helping in any possible way. Ever)’ month the League has had an entertainment at which a prominent local resident has spoken to the members on a subject related to their work. On several occasions it has made trips to New York City to view art work in which the members are interested. Under Miss Holmquist’s capable direction the League advanced to new heights this year. Its membership is now overflowing, and it has established an enviable record of school service. [83] Ho?ior Society Since THE institution of the rule barring freshmen, and making entry dependent on scholarship alone, the membership of the Honor Society has been exceedingly small. Not more than ten students, and usually less, are admitted each vear in June. Among these there are often seniors whose immediate graduation still leaves the society with few members. Unprecedented but nevertheless exciting was the sale of earmuffs by the industrious members. A novel idea, it was particularly successful in starting a flow of currency into the heretofore vacant treasury. The Honor Society has existed since the first Lawrence High School. Then, as today, the ideals of the club have always been the highest. JMental ‘Pabulum As A progressive instrument of scholastic journalism, Mental Pabulum will soon head the list of the best bi-monthv school publications. In November of this term at the Syracuse University journalism convention, the newspaper was awarded the prize for the most improved publication. Since its arrival in this building, the Mental Pabulum has been widened by one column, an increase of about two inches. With the resignation of Margaret Wood, early in the term, Mrs. Denton appointed from her journalism classes news reporters, headline writers, and make-up assistants. The feature and sport material was given to specified editors for their supervision. [84] Officers President Stanley Block Vice -Brestden I Wilhant Kahn Secretary Ah'in Gallant Treasurer Stuart Brown Adviser A7r, Caom s The ffirum The Qhess Qlub Due to growing demand, the Forum club was formed late in December by a group of seniors who wanted to provide an opportunity for intelligent discussion. Many lower classmen joined. A question “bee” was held to check on the knowledge of the student body. In order to raise money, the club conducted a picture identification contest. It was successful in creating much interest in the organization and in gaining the desired end. Mr. Coombs was unanimously chosen Faculty Adviser. Composed of a relatively small, but nevertheless ardent group of chess enthusiasts, the chess club has done much to stimulate the spread of chess throughout the school. Non-plavers are invited to join the club, and are taught by the other members. Frequent tournaments keep the interest alive. As an added incentive, there is the chess team, composed of five men proven the best by the intra-club tournaments, that plays in interscholastic competition with the schools of Long Island and Queens. This year’s team consists of Robert Klein, Leonard Brum, Stuart Brown, Martin Marks, and Charles Rosengarten. Mr. Schwab has been adviser of the club since its debut in 1932.

Its aim is to regain the State Championship which was lost to Albany last year. In order to be eligible to compete for the State Championship Contest held at Syracuse University, the middle of May, the team must first win the Long Island District Contest to be held in Oyster Bay the latter part of April. In winning the state championship in 1936, Lawrence’s team broke all previous records. With this in mind, the squad hopes to uphold the school’s name and prestige. Home 1l{oom The Lawrencian has inaugurated a new staff of assistants to simplify and to aid the workings of its board in every possible way. Two representatives were elected from each home room in the building. The election was held after school hours, and each student was allowed to cast a ballot for his choice. The representatives were invaluable during the subscription drive which lasted for several weeks. They proved indispensable in the launching of a successful booster campaign, and, with their customary adeptness, circulated the completed annual on the date of its completion. cKpPr{ esentatrves [86] Officers,’ ftesidenl Alar A fl rAin Vice-TVesiden Pk i.2 cp AuriS teere ary Herbert Saltan Treasurer Herbert da 7unC Atdyiser AQr. d er e $tamp £Hu6 Officer.9 President Anthony Pa mes-Vice - Presi dent Any e to Ttrncia Secretary ' Saber Tabu dor Treasurer idl l asn buylass Adriser A?r da fan The c.Aviation Qlub The Aviation Club, innovated three years ago by aeronautical enthusiasts, was organized to encourage interest in aviation, to promise friendly relations among people, and to place before the majority of the people the benefits and pleasures of flying activity. As a part of their program the members visited Roosevelt Aviation School, Mitchel Field, and Floyd Bennett Airport. The club has also witnessed operations in various airplane companies. The aviation club even boasts several licensed airmen as its members. Notwithstanding all this, each member has experienced the thrill of a plane ride and could probably tell, accurately and thrillinglv, the acco”. t of his ri.!c. The (§tamp Qlub The Stamp Club, under the supervision of Mr. Berle, is certainly proving that the hobby of stamp collecting is not dying out. The aim of this ambitious group is to create and promote a liking for the hobby of stamp collecting. At the meetings stamps are traded and interesting ones discussed, carrying out, therefore, one of its mottos, “There is a story behind every stamp.” This year the group entered competition for the first time. A contest sponsored by the Nassau Suffolk Philatelic Stamp Alliance afforded the members an opportunity to exhibit their collections. Philip Edelstein won first prize with his collection of United States Postage Stamps.

Started last term by Miss Shaffer, the group now consists of twenty members. A student who belongs to the Glee Club receives Regents’ credit for it—one quarter of a unit is given for a year’s active membership. The club did not hold any public performances during the first year of its activity. Club meetings were held twice a week in the music room. The club has progressed very rapidly since its organization and shows promise of becoming one of Lawrence High School’s outstanding musical groups. laboratory Assistants Indispensable to the Science Department are the laboratory assistants. John Franks, Robert Klein, and Martin Dinerstein work in conjunction with the Physics and Chemistry departments while Mark Fisher is connected with the General Biology laboratory. This year the laboratory assistants corrected a total of more than 6,000 experiments. Although some of those taking science courses believe that experiments set themselves up, this is really the work of the laboratory assistants. Another important function is aiding absentees in making up experiments. In a word, the assistants place themselves freely and unselfishly at the disposal of the Science Department, to serve it in any possible way.

The layette, completed at Christmas time, was given to a worthy family designated by the Parent-Teacher Association. Later the girls divided into two groups: one is working on an afghan in shades and tints of green for the teachers’ rest room; the other is knitting and crocheting sweaters and hats for themselves. The meetings, which have been informal, have always been followed by refreshments planned and served by two of the members. With the dues collected, this band of twenty up and coming “Knitstcrs” intends to go to a Broadway show. A NEW type of entertainment has been introduced into our assembly programs. The heretofore heard, but seldom seen, Girls’ Glee Club has played host for man of our assembly periods, adding a flavoring of freshness, vitality, and warmth for a perfectly enjoyable forty minutes. Since the formation of the glee club a few years back, the insignia of the “songbirds” has been a simple gold-plated pen. This year their symbol represents a musical clef and boasts the initials of the Girls’ Glee Club. The design is laid in buff and blue. In an all-music concert with the band and orchestra, the glee club was loudly acclaimed by a large gathering. [89] I Lawrence High School Orchestra WITH the military hand well on its way, Professor Mellace launched the symphony orchestra. Notwithstanding the fact that there is a serious dearth of trained violinists, and that the average training period for a player of a stringed instrument is two years, as compared with several months for the average player of a hand instrument, the orchestra has done some remarkable work. Although only in existence for about two years, the orchestra has succeeded in conquering many difficult works; among them compositions of Brahms, Wagner, and Verdi. Almost since its inauguration, the orchestra has been an important factor in such affairs as graduations, for entr’acte music for various plays, and for other school functions. Together, the band and orchestra have provided lessons for more than two hundred students, most of whom probably would never either have wanted to or been able to take music lessons. Not a few have availed themselves of this chance, and have developed their playing into a profitable profession. It is truly a golden opportunity and one which is rarely available to the average high-school student. Where else is one loaned an instrument and given, absolutely free, competent instructions? To the school and to Mr. Mellace, we, the students, wish to express our gratitude. [ 90] J jiwrence High School 'Band rPIiE close of the 1937 football season marked the end of the band’s third successful A year on the gridiron. Its membership has grown to sixty-five since its beginning •n I935 and together with the increase in size has come a marked improvement in ability. Over ninety per cent of the band’s present membership had had no musical training until it joined. The band’s repertoire has increased from the simple beginner’s marches played, until, today, it includes difficult concert overtures. This noteworthy progress has been attained through the conscientious and diligent work of Professor Mel lace. Although the band has performed before huge crowds on football fields, as a rule, only marches were played. However, early in April, an all-music concert was presented in the high-school auditorium by the band, orchestra, and Girls’ Glee Club, where a large gathering of parents and friends had an opportunity to hear the band play some really fine music. The enthusiasm with which the concert was received will, we believe, lead to more frequent concerts in the future. In order to guarantee a source of trained musicians, Professor Mellace is starting lessons in the Junior High School. His desire is to attain a membership of one hundred musicians. Here’s to a bigger and better band! [91] Teience Cizti?

The members have been hard at work to make the collections more informative and interesting. Some excellent work has been done on embryos, and now the biology classes have the advantage of seeing more and better specimens, and profiting from them. Other things worked upon by the members are slides (also used for classes), terrariums, and aquariums. All these help to make the museum more than just tables, bottles, and labels. At the meetings, slides that the members have made are shown and discussed, and individual projects and experiments are performed. Another Thursday meeting of the Science Club: Miss Strauch and some of the members manipulate various chemicals to produce a queer assortment of colors and odors; Mr. Ahner and a second group attempt to disprove Dalton’s theory; Mr. Berle and another section delve into the intricacies of photography. The members work on individual projects and experiments in which they are interested, and which cannot be executed in class because of limited time. Some ol the members of the club are now making a Tesla coil, with which, it is hoped, they will be able to obtain sparks up to five inches long. Many field trips to factories and other places of interest are planned. [92] ®oopeeping Team This year the Bookkeeping Team, under the direction of Mr. Williams, had a very satisfactory season. Of the ten students who tried out early in the term, six represented the school at the district contest at Oyster Bay late in April. The winners at Oyster Bay entered the State contest at Syracuse. A new type contest was used which requires of the contestant considerable accuracy and speed. This year the Team’s record excelled that of all previous years, and the team expects to reach even greater heights in the future. In all probability it will live up to the school’s expectations. Italian Qlub The Italian Club has been one of the outstanding clubs of the school this year. Under the leadership of Miss Corvaia and Dominick Pol-lera it has been very active towards its goal, “The furthering of general student interest in the Italian language, literature, and customs.” One of its foremost activities this year, in addition to its semi-monthly meetings, was the club’s trip to New York to see an Italian film and to visit points of interest. Early in April the club sponsored a highly successful Tea Dance, and later on its Dramatic Committee presented a short play. The club, although a new organization, boasts a membership of eighty students. [ 93 ] THE JUMP 1900 In 1900 fox hunting was one of the chief amusements among the wealthier sportsmen on Long Island. The first hunt club started with a small pack of hounds which were brought over from Ireland in the summer of 1877. The chief hunt centers of that time were Hempstead. Westbury, and Cedar-hurst. Today, fox hunting remains a popular sport on many of the large estates of the North Shore. ATHLETICS eVarsity [‘tub THE Varsity Club is composed of the creaifi of the Lawrence athletes. '1 he leading men in each field are members. Have you ever stopped to think how dull school life would be without athletics? No baseball games to go to after school. No basketball games on Friday nights at which one can give vent to the feelings which he has carefully but painfully suppressed during the dreary week. No champion football team to cheer on on a chill Saturday afternoon. Just imagine not being able to brag about the sports prowess of our school, as represented by the Varsity Club. In addition to being an honorary organization, to which those who have won one major or three minor “letters” automatically belong, the Club has a very important function: sub-committees consisting of three members of the club represent each sport in the high school. When any difficulty arises, it is handled through these subcommittees. For example, assume that the tennis team needs another dozen tennis balls to complete the season. The team coach or manager speaks to the Varsity Club Tennis Sub-Committee, which, in turn, approaches the sports department. This year, due to the growing interest in sports, the club is larger than ever before, and promises to increase in size still more. We salute the club and its members. [96] Tooth all 1937 IONG AFTER the hollow thump of punts, the smash of line plunges, and the frenzied yelling of grid adherents has faded from the memory, one from Lawrence will recall with a swelling of his chest and a glint in his eye, the banner 1937 football season. “Nick” Farina, entering upon his second year as Head Coach, called first practice for September 8. He was rewarded with a squad of sixty eager boys, from which he was to repair the line that had been ripped from tackle to tackle by graduation. The “pigskin parade” opened against an ambitious Long Reach team with which we had no trouble, emerging on top, 41-0. Hicksville offered Lawrence little competition and was subdued to the tune of 38-0; Sal Raia, a slight, elusive lad immortalized this game with the “end-around,” a play which he was to use so effectively throughout the year to baffle other grid aggregations. On October 9, a valiant Central team held the Buff and Blue scoreless during the first half, a moral victory in itself; the latter quarters were quite different, for Captain Tavalaro and Company put the pressure on and beat the Streamers 18-0. Rolling up the greatest number of points compiled by a Long Island team for 1937, the “Farina-men” powerhoused the YVestbury Varsity, netting 61 markers to their own account, as against Westburv’s 7. In a deluge of rain Lawrence met the outstanding La Salle Military Academy eleven. The battle of a soaked ball, muddy field, and slipping players concluded in a 0-0 deadlock. Glen Cove proved to be tougher than was expected, making Lawrence fight for a 12-0 win. Another “Saturday standout,” Gerald Politano, helped complete the 41-6 victory recorded over Woodmere. In the second quarter, Gerry cradled the “big apple” in his singular manner, and streaked from his own ten-yard line, over the Woodmere goal for a sensational 90-yard touchdown run. The Baldwin-Lawrence rivalry is renowned, and action was king at their meeting. Although the “Craigmen” played well, they were outclassed by Lawrence, and bowed 19-0. Freeport was the menu on Thanksgiving Day. The “Red Devils” fared no better than the rest and were set back by a 20-0 score. Thus—by the efforts of Coaches Farina, Andrews, Nielsen, Duff, Faculty Manager Outterson, the co-operation of student managers, and the star performances of the boys, Lawrence ended the season without a blot to mar its record. They accumulated 250 points as against opponents’ 13. On December 1, the Robert Low Bacon Trophy was awarded to the “Golden Tornado” on the basis of their undefeated season against Nassau County elevens. A board of picked sportswriters and coaches, selected the victor by a unanimous vote. In accordance with this, came the all-scholastic selections from Lawrence. Captain “Pug” Tavalaro, Sal Raia, and Gerald Politano were chosen for the first team; “Red” Kleinlein made the second team; Joe Baal and Frank Mott received honorable mention. To establish further Lawrence’s high position in football, the Rutgers University Alumni Association voted Lawrence the best eleven on Long Island, and announced that it would receive the Rutgers’ Cup. Out of a possible 100 points, Lawrence received 82 from twenty coaches on Long Island. The grand finale occurred at the Football Banquet, when with Supt. Dodd presiding, the cups were formally presented. Buff sweaters with a blue major L were given to the members of the Varsity, the money having been raised by interested businessmen of the community. The Junior Varsity-received letters. The presence of Congressman Bacon, Carl Fuchs of the Rutgers Association, Harvey Harmon, recently appointed coach of Rutgers, and many other people of importance as guests, created an atmosphere of brilliance which heightened the beauty of our already tastefully decorated gymnasium. A fit ending to Lawrence’s glorious season. May we have many more under the guidance of Coach “Nick” Farina. [97] -rec c. Ya- -n a fc r-Ac u? Pe bl o £Oia- Tr 9Zi SJe-n Ba.£eba. 22 Tea. ■??? W r y y ■ 'funi or ‘Varsity football Winning five of its seven games, the Lawrence “jayvees” swept through an excellent season. Westbury was trounced twice; Baldwin, Mal-verne, and Freeport, once. Defeats were rendered by Freeport’s powerful reserves and Central’s championship squad. Coach Farina thought enough of the reserve team to allow them to participate in four varsity games. Next season the new “jayvees” will find an entirely different setup. Coach Nielsen announced that plans for a night game, a trip to Suffolk County, and games with smaller schools’ varsity elevens, are being considered. Last year’s junior team will automatically become the varsity squad and will take the place of graduating varsity members. Troys' baseball Lawrence’s exponents of the bat and ball anxiously awaited the announcement of baseball practice this spring so that they could exhibit their prowess to their able guide, Mr. Ed Andrews. Mr. Andrews succeeds Coach “Zimmie” Nathanson as mentor of the Lawrence nine, after the latter had led the Buff and Blue for two seasons. The new coach met a large group of hopeful candidates at Horn Field shortly before Easter vacation. In this gathering were over a dozen veterans of last year’s team and many “rookies” who showed great promise. This year the squad has high hopes and a good chance of capturing the South Shore championship. [ 100] do2 S’ 3as ce?da ??

Sic? tfaiheine tijj Coach Yrs ar-i er- Gjirls Basketball Beam Under the able coaching of Mrs. Barber, the Girls' Basketball Team, despite the loss of a few of last year’s star players, had a fairly successful season, although they failed to win the South Shore League Championship. Led by the high-scoring Amy Monroe and assisted by Margaret Angieri, Marion Drahos, Irene Dum-mever, Mary Geraldi, Cecilia Rosino, Frances Bennett, Julia Adduci, and Mildred Skellington, the team gained impressive victories over a few of its rivals, including Baldwin, Woodmere, and Lynbrook. While chalking up these triumphs the team demonstrated its powerful scoring attack, smooth passing ability, and fine defensive work. Boys' Basketball Beam The Lawrence High School Basketball Team opened its season under a new mentor, Mr. Frank Whitman. The quintet won most of its home games, but did not fare so well on the road. Two of the Class A teams bowed to the Buff and Blue five, twice, although Lawrence was unable to top Freeport, Bayshore, or Long Beach. Woodmere captured two out of three games in a local series. Among the outstanding players this season were: Frank Mott, Don Seligman, “Lee” Armbruster, Joe Baal, John and Fred Mollo, LeRoy Senftenberg, Pete Rug-gicri, Frank Pastor, Joe Sarro, Harry Abbott, and “Sneaky” Balzano. [101] Wrestling ‘Team After a fine start last year, when it was first organized, the Lawrence High School “grunt and groan” team presented a strong crew for its contests. The team met and subdued some of the foremost squads in the country, among which were Malverne, Lynbrook, Great Neck, Garden City, Long Beach, Valley Stream, and Mepham. The hoys received their share of bad breaks, but kept well in the running in the league, and were regarded as a threat by all. The most outstanding of our large crop of wrestlers were Dominick Bertucci, one hundred thirty-five pound class individual winner in the South Shore Athletic League, “Butch” Hendrickson, Eugene Lipthay, Jim Flood, and Jack Flood. 4Boxing Team There was a time when boxing was in the hands of a few “low-browrs who hauled and mauled each other only to supply pleasure for the gentlemen of leisure. The manly art has become so advanced, however, that those in the game at present must have an analytical and scientific knowledge of the sport. Our school has not only started the boxing team to teach the boys “the manly art of self defense,” but also to encourage good sportsmanship and “taking it with a smile.” Coach Nielsen has helped the squad to attain the Long Island High School Boxing Championship. [ 102] Cji 'ls' Tennis Team The Girls’ Tennis Team is looking forward to a promising season under the able coaching of Miss Holly. As only four of last year’s squad have returned, it will he neressary for the team to resort to new material when it starts local competition. For the first time, home matches will probably he played. Miss Holly hopes for the services of Marion Drahos and Amy Monroe, whom she has been coaching in an effort to produce a first-rate team this season. Toys' Tennis Team The Tennis Team, led by Robert Klein, a veteran of three years standing, is going out this year to win hack the championship laurels held two years ago. It’s really a powerful squad, with James Minnigan, Mark Syrkin, and Ray Men-des all having experienced match play last year. Edward Ketcham, a freshman, is expected to prove a valuable asset to the team. Coach Hayes predicts that, with our home courts to provide a chance for early training, the team is unbeatable. The schedule this year is a hard one. with several non-league games played. Go to it, boys, and bring home the championship. [103] (?a.p a 17z. 2 6 t? -a J ec e -rut a e r- Je ry ffteUgie i 7eatoz “71 G- y r Se a.tnce Ge26 Con e 7i y C US Posner Ting Once again the Girls’ Ping-pong Team completed a successful season against their friendly rivals which included East Rockaway, Oceanside, Baldwin, Central, Lynbrook, South Side, and Woodmere. With the return of most of last year’s veterans, the team, with Miss Posner as faculty adviser and Beatrice Gelb as manager, developed into a worthy contender among the strong South Shore teams. Captained by Miriam Davidson, star singles player, and with the fine support of each of the members, which include Anita Eller, Rachel Weisberger, Edith Newman, Clair Schwartz, Nancy Levin, Doris Traub, and Joan Breakstone, the team has indeed compiled a worthy record. Toys' Ti?ig-pong Due to the late organization, the Boys’ Ping-pong Team did not meet any of its scheduled rivals this year. However, a hard-fought intraschool tournament was conducted to determine the school “champ.” A1 Bedell proved to be Lawrence’s number one wielder of the racket, although his exalted title was threatened more than once. Since many of this year’s men are graduating, they must be replaced by lower classmen to insure the success of future teams. Among the veterans who will be seen in action when ping-pong season rolls around next year, are: Kenny Levy, Gene Hochfelder, Buddy Schoenholz, and Leonard Brum. [10+] Cjir s' Cjo f Team After last year’s excellent season, the Girls’ Golf Team expects to continue successfully with the return of many veterans. The team, coached by Mrs. Barber, made a splendid record in its first year in local competition, with six victories and three ties. All home matches are played at the Cedarpoint Golf Club, others usually being played at Beth-Page or Old YVest-bury. With Amy Monroe in the number one position, the team will probably include Marion Drahos, Dorothy Krpata, Rose Sarro, Margaret Hanlon, Mary Patitucci, and Mafalda Tavalaro, with new members who will be used for extensive activities. Boys' golf 'Team Lawrence has long been famous for its nationally known golf team. In the past few years it has compiled a record worthy of high praise, played over various courses on Long Island; such as, the Inwood, YVoodmere, and Beth-Page State Park links; no course has been too difficult, nor any opponent too tough. Mr. Pierce, an ardent golf admirer and player, holds down the position of coach. This year our golf team consists of four veterans from last year’s team, who are hopeful of having a most successful season. [105] Coac'A f¥r. Pierce Captain bny JYonr-oe J ?ana er-s j)ori th y Pa.pes m P orence J)anes CoacA PflSs 7So?fy Cjirls' Hockey Team £tudent Qytn Readers For a second consecutive season Miss Holly, inspirational hockey coach, produced a well-organized machine. Captained by Amy Monroe, the team participated in six games. Of these, three ties offset the season with three losses to strong opponents, making an equal balance. The team consisted of Amy Monroe as right inner; Marion Drahos as left inner; Jeanne Haas as right wing; Jane Edsell as left wing; Marjorie Shapiro as center forward; Julia Ad-duci as right half; Anna Bertucci as left half; Louise Tavalar as right back; Irene Dummeyer as left back; Margaret Angieri as goal keeper; and Mildred Skellington and Rhoda Abrams alternating in the position of center half. The system of gym leaders, organized in the physical education department last year, is made up of two groups; one for the boys, and one for the girls. The leaders are members of the gym team and are assistants to Mr. Whitman and Miss Holly. The boys decide upon the schedule of games to be played during the regular gym periods and aid in putting on public exhibitions. Each girl leader is in charge of a group which she lines up at the beginning of the gym (Mass. Each leader takes attendance and helps in the teaching of games. This system of gym leadership, aids the coaches, but also develops leadership in the students. [ 106] Cheer aptains wserfixe focierse lueian Ser-pa cu fy Pdzr s r 7 ?r$. J) jiscy Athletic (§taff Much of the success of the Lawrence athletic teams must be credited to the excellent coaching staff of our school. Included among these outstanding and worthy directors are: Mr. Farina, Head Football Coach; Mr. Outterson, Faculty Manager of Football; Mr. Pierce, Golf Coach; Mr. Andrews, Baseball and Assistant Football Coach; Mr. Whitman, Boys’ Basketball Coach; Mr. Nielsen, Boxing and Junior Varsity Football Coach; Mr. Haves, Tennis Coach; Mr. Williams, Wrestling Instructor; Mrs. Barber, Girls’ Basketball Coach. Under these highly regarded men and women, Lawrence is looking forward to another year of competitive athletics. Qheerleaders Time out is called during an exciting football or basketball game ; out trot the Lawrence Cheerleaders, twenty odd strong. “Let’s give a ‘rah, rah, ray, ray.’ Are you ready? Let’s go!” A voluminous response bursts forth from the student body, one hundred per cent behind our hard working pep-givers. The squad receives much praise for its origination of the now famous “truckin’ ” cheers on the gridiron. Every day these ambitious lads and lassies may be seen practicing their “rooting” under the fine coaching of Mrs. Dimpsey. To the Cheerleaders for the important part they played in the success of the football team this year, the school is grateful. [ 107] Cjfreshman Basketball The Lawrence High School freshman team completed its 1938 season with a new mentor. Mr. Hayes, prominent and well-liked commercial teacher, and last year’s tennis coach, took the helm to lead the frosh squad on to a very successful season. Mr. Hayes showed his basketball coaching ability by sending the first year men out, after only two practice sessions, to overwhelm a strong East Rockaway freshman quintet. After the freshmen played an unexpectedly good game against the junior varsity, it was realized that next season they will be fighting it out for either the varsity or “jayvee” squads. Intra-'JMlural Basketball This year the physical education department has inaugurated a new and valuable activity in its varied program. This was basketball competition between teams made up of boys not connected with regular sports. The experiment proved popular and ten teams of enthusiastic students were formed. Competition was carried on throughout the winter season. When final tabulations were made it was found that the Fracuba Stars, with an undefeated record, Were champions of the third floor. They faced the Fighting Freshman, lower class winners, for the school championship. The Stars, led by Captain Henry Topping, took the game by a decisive score. [108] The Qymnasium Exhibition ALL the splendor and pomp of a stage production are combined in one extensive show in which most of the students participate when Lawrence gives its annual gym exhibition. Perhaps the most important part of the exhibition is the contribution of the gym team which is pictured here. The 1938 gym team hopes, this year, to have a bigger and better exhibition. Led by Captain “Butch” Hendrickson, whose record-breaking high jumps, last year, were the highlights of the exhibition, the team is out to break manv records. The two coaches, Mr. Whitman and Miss Holly, have many innovations to present this year, and hope to have a greater number of candidates for the gym team, other than last year’s squad. Among the returning stars are Amy Monroe, Irene Dummeyer, Dorothy and Virginia Lahive, Dorothy Reseller, Jack Flood, John Franks, William Ierna, and Harold Segal. This year the usual impressive performance is anticipated.
