PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL LAWRENCE, NEW YORK P 0 BARBARA GLADSTONE Editor-in-Chief DORIS GRAUBART Business Manager MABEL LEAVITT Faculty Adviser LAVIMIAN WE DEDICATE 1 E DEDICATE the 1945 Lawrencian to our principal. Mr. Cecil C. MacDonald, for whom this year marks the end of his career in the teaching profession. In the thirty-two years that he has been our principal, Lawrencians past and present have benefited by their acquaintance with him. We have fell that in him we have had a second father to whom we could turn with our problems whether simple or complex and receive sympathetic and understanding advice. No school function would have been complete without his presence. The students of Lawrence love and revere him. We regret his retirement and the loss of his association with us. However, our sorrow is lessened by the knowledge he will now have the time to enjoy his well-deserved leisure. Photo by Sol Smith cecil c. Macdonald Principal Honoring Laivrencians SAIPAN • ST.

VITH MUNICH BERLIN MILAN BAGUIO HAMBURG all over the world MR. Dodd, Superintendent of School District 15, is an important factor in our high school. A school must he aide to adapt itself to ever-changing world conditions. It is Mr.Dodd’s responsibility to see that our curriculum meets these demands. By tlie addition of extra-curricular activities, and through the addition of new courses, especially in the Vocational School, he has succeeded in keeping Lawrence High in step with the times. When we say Mr. MacDonald is Lawrence High, Lawrencians know what we mean. For thiry-two years he has been our principal and during this time we have found a definite place for him in our hearts. Although very busy, he attends our proms, debates, school games, and plays. Largely through his efforts our sales of defense stamps and bonds have boomed. We feel that in our principal we have a friend who will listen to our problems and offer us sympathetic and understanding advice. Most students feel that Miss Teffl typifies what is known as the “square Lawrence V. Dodd deal”. As our assistant-principal the task of maintaining law and order in high school falls under her jurisdiction. It is in this respect that she demonstrates her keen sense of justice and fair play which have gained her the admiration of all Lawrencians. 9 Lyman Davison Mrs. Emma Horn Do you remember when you were just a little and somewhat bewildered freshman? Lawrence High School seemed so huge, and you were so small. There was that kind school marshal who took pity on you and decided to help you out. From the GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT you received a program card and were introduced to Mr. Davison, head of the department, and to his genial assistant, Mrs. Horn. To make things clearer, Mr. Davison took you aside and explained his work. “The Guidance Department aims to point out to students the many mediums of education and their inter-dependence in our modern society, so that the student may reach his full development with tlie opportunities at hand. We try to show him the importance not only of the mastery of subject matter, but also of the acquisition of proper health anil study habits, and of the ability to think logically and to select and use assembled material.” Mrs. Horn added at this time, “In addition to assisting with the educational planning of the students, we hope to stimulate the growth of group or community consciousness, to develop self-reliance, courtesy, sportsmanship, initiative, and a pleasing personality in every individual who should, in reality, secure these attributes for himself. Having a little more confidence in yourself, you went willingly with the marshal to meet the other faculty members of LawreiioL Knowing the importance of the LIBRARY to all students, his next step was to take you there. Miss Ice, our librarian, told you that we have about seven thousand hooks which include fiction and non-fiction. The names of such magazines as “Life”, “Fortune”, “The Atlantic Monthly”, and many others caught your eye. As a source of reading for pleasure and research, our library is indeed adequate. From the library you made your way to the ART DEPARTMENT where Mrs. Palmer explained that here stress was placed on the de velopment of individual talent through th. perspective and design courses offered. Man; of the bulletin board displays and posters sect in the village and in school as well as the ar work of the Law'rencian are contributed by this department. Our MUSIC DEPARTMENT headed by hand and orchestra director Mr. Beloof and choral leader Miss Carver needed no intro duction to you. The classical concerts as W'ell as the popular music sponsored by thest groups are renowned. The Mixed Chorus am the Acapella Choir in addition to the Mush Appreciation and Voice-training Classes offei an excellent musical background. M iss Ellsworth was only too happy to ARTS.

The student masters speech problems so that he may feel at ease at all times. The aim of the Drama as a study is to give full expression to one’s deepest self, and to achieve an appreciation of human desires and struggles.” As a freshman, FOREIGN LANGUAGES were somewhat of a novelty to you. In Lawrence High School we are fortunate in having a group of Foreign Language teachers who are well prepared to acquaint the students with the history and culture of the various countries as well as to help them acquire a speaking knowledge of the different languages. “Why should I study Spanish or French?” you wanted to know. Mr. MacDonald, head of this Department answered readily. “The training in foreign languages is of especial value because it gives an excellent cultural background in general. It has a direct effect upon our English vocabulary ami can he used to advantage in some of our classes. It gives us a basis for a better understanding of other nations which will he necessary after the War. Certainly in the present war the need for men and women who possess special training in foreign languages has been clearly demonstrated.” The sound of typewriters clicking merrily away caught your ear, and when you glanced into the room, you saw members of the BUSINESS DEPARTMENT at work. By means of appropriate curricula this division trains the student for office employment which follows immediately upon the completion of the high school course Adequate instruction is offered in shorthand, typing, hookkeeping, and business law. From Mrs. Jack, who heads this department, you learned that graduates are assured of success in the business world. The shortage of office workers brought about by the war has resulted in the employment of high school students for part time work after school hours. This year the department received a letter from the Peninsula National Bank of Cedarhurst which stated that it has been their policy to employ local people, especially graduates of Lawrence High School who were found to be well trained and efficient.

He briefly described the aims of his department by remarking, “The members of the faculty recognize that education is acquired through the medium of reading. It is, therefore, their aim that students learn to read with comprehension,, that they equip themselves with an adequate vocabulary to express themselves, and that they achieve an ability to write with clarity and simplicity.” Noting your interest, Mr. Davison continued, “Perhaps the most important aim is that students learn to enjov the reading of good books ami to regard them as old friends to he relied, upon in leisure t ine. ' From Miss Tefft, head of the SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT, you obtained a clearer idea of what vour studies w i r consist in the next four years. ENGLISH DEPT.. Standing: Mrs. Mildred Seaman.

Standing: Nicholas Farina, Walter Vanderbush, Edward Andrews, Sol Smith. Seated: Mrs. Mildred Beck. Dorothy Griffith, Elsie Tefft. Ethel Hobbs. She told you that the term social studies’ has replaced the term “history” because the scope of the department no longer is limited to historical facts alone. It is felt that in a democracy each individual should be afforded the opportunity to develop his innate capacities to the utmost as an intelligent, self-d irecting, ami contributing member of society This opportunity is provided through education. The Social Studies four-year program has been organized as the most direct approach. It offers the greatest opportunity for training children in those knowledges, skills, attitudes, and resulting behavior which are desirable for worthwhile living in a democratic society. In order that all the children of all the people shall have this training, the social studies courses have been compulsory in our high school. Miss Wood, head of the MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT told you it is possible to take four years of work in this field. Algebra would he your beginning subject and then on to Intermediate and Advanced Algebra, Plane and Solid Geometry, and Trigonometry- 12 “A good mathematical background, Miss Wood assured you, “is an asset to boys who are in the artillery, or studying radar or meteorology. Letters from graduates have proved this to he true. “We are living in a scientific age. Science does as much to control our life as any other field of knowledge. Educators feel that every person should know the fundamental principles of science.” This was the way in which the head of our SCIENCE DEPARTMENT, Mr. Aimer, opened his conversation with you. He proceeded to show' you around the Chemistry and Physics labs where students were busily performing various experiments. Mr. Aimer assured you that after your freshman yean of General Science you would he prepared to take General Biology,“Cbem Biry, and Physics in the next three years. Since the war thfr enrollment in these subjects has doubled. To girls en- SCIENCE DEPT. Sanding: Walter Aimer, Katherine VOCATIONAL DEPT. Hartigan, Luella Strauch, Farrell Berle.

On the way to VOCATIONAL SCHOOL, you and the marshal discussed the merits of Lawrence’s tiewrest department which observes its fourth year of existence. Before the inauguration of the Vocational school, many hoys left school at the age of sixteen, because there was little in the school curriculum to interest them. Mr. Keller, head of the school, showed you through the various shops. He explained that students have a chance to explore four different trades in the first two years, and then select any one trade in the remaining two years. This method enables them to secure knowledge of the fundamentals of a trade, and offers greater advantages in the location of a job. Back to Lawrence again for a quick glance into the gym. Since the war the need for physical fitness can’t he emphasized too strongly. Our DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION under the direction of Mr. Pierce 13 HOME ECONOMICS DEPT.: Harriett Zeamans, Grace Colton, Winifred Sloane, Mrs. Hannah Saal, Mrs. Elnietta DeMott. has done much to develop active young bodies by means of exercises and competitive games. In addition this department teaches Health, a subject which finds practical application in our daily routine. From Miss Sloane, head of the HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT, you received the following reply in response to your queries. “Our department attempts to interpret the needs of the local community during wartime, with an overview' of a future world, and its relation to the future homemakers of America.” This department aims to help solve problems of nutrition, clothing, home furnishing and building and financing, child care, illness in the home, social living, and family relationships which arise in the individual life. In all living it stresses beauty against monotony, comfort against lack, security against waste, character development, tolerance, and ultimate happiness in family life. As a climax to your tour, you and the marshal visited the HEALTH SERVICE DEPARTMENT of which we arc justly proud, hach student is given a complete physical examination in which eyes, ears, and teeth are checked in addition to a chest X-ray. W hen physical defects are found, parents are urged to have them corrected as soon as possible so that students will he in good physical condition. Gee! Lawrence is sure a swell school, you concluded after meeting its faculty. The next four years were going to be the best in your life you vowed as far as education, teachers, friends, and school in general were concerned.

No that the final (lays of the CLASS OF 1945 in Lawrence High School are numbered, a familiar nostalgia envelops us all and we have the desire to turn hack the pages of time and review our happy years here. Looking back four years, we gaze upon ourselves as freshmen, little acorns but potential oaks . In our first school election, we chose as our leaders, Austin Baron, Mary Goddard, Beryl Barhuti, Ella Federico, with Mr. Smith as faculty adviser. Freshmen movies, a fund-raising drive, and a lively informal hop kept us busy. We turn another leaf in the hook of time, our votes were counted, the winners were Mr. Smith as adviser, Jerry Greenberg, Beryl Barhuti, Bob Baum and Martin Mines. We raised Lawrence’s war stamp goal by showing the film “Land of Liberty” to stamp buyers. Another page is turned and there we are again but, ah! What a difference. e are now elevated to the “noble” status of upperclassmen. We started the year off by electing as our officers Ronald Cameron, Boh Bullwinkle, Beryl Barhuti and Peter Rose, and. with our enterprising faculty adviser, Mr. Berle, we set a precedent for other Junior classes to follow by having Lawrence High School’s first Junior Prom. Remembering our senior year, we realize that, although we worked hard, our tasks were sufficiently spiced with good times. Our senior officers were Tom Shearer, Peter Rose, Mary Goddard and Beryl Barhuti. Miss Griffith and Mr. Simmonds were our able faculty advisers. Then came appointments with Boris. Lawrencian ballots, dues, senior jewelry, and all tlie other multifarious activities that Lawrence High School seniors traditionally engage in. We bought senior hats and inaugurated the idea of having a combined prom and banquet. Then came our last exams and finally — the Great Day — our graduation. Our honor speakers filled us with pride and our friends seemed to have donned new gravity with their maroon and white robes. When the final prayer was said, we all knew that we would never forget Lawrence Higli School and what it had done for us. 17 Valedictorian—GERALD MILLSTEIN The number one student of our elass of 1945 is a modest young man of exceptional scholastic ability and the possessor of a winning smile and sparkling wit. At Lawrence, he has shown a strong inclination toward things scientific. He deservedly commands an eye-catching 93.13 average. Salntatorian—BARBARA LIEBERMAN Hard on the heels of the valedictorian, Bobbie maintains second place with an average of 93.09. This amazing miss combines a winsome personality with a keen receptive mind and a diversity of talents extending to the fields of music, athletics, mathematics, and literature. Third Honor Speaker—LILA SILVERMAN Runner up for scholastic third with an average of 92.36, this fair-haired lass not only holds her own regarding mental achievement hut is an accomplished pianist as well. She also excels in mathematics and science and is noted for her tranquil disposition. 18 Football dance. Senior hats. Senior meeting. Miss Kelley's “Quiz kids. Home room representatives.

SENIOR PLAY ALL audible whispers sink to a hush anti the curtain slowly parts to reveal the setting of an English interior peopled with a gay and somewhat expectant company. A spirit of anticipation and mystery seems to hang over them, for these people have been assembled on Midsummer’s Eve, that most eery of country nights, by their elfin host. Lob, for a special purpose. They are miscreants, each nourishing a hitter regret for a wasted past, hut on this night alone, they may renew tlieir wasted lives, may force their destinies, may have a “second chance”. One by one they enter the mystic wood wherein tlie past may he recaptured: Matey, the lmtler who wishes to lead an honest life; Dearth, the down-at-the-heel artist who wants more than anything else to have a child; Alice, his wife, who thinks to make a better match; Coady, who wants to he something besides an “amiable fool”; Jack, who seeks to unravel the intrigue of his love affairs. One by one they return to Lob’s house, their situations somewhat changed hut their characters and actions the same. Thus says Shakespeare, “The fault. Dear Brutus, is not in our stars, hut in ourselves that we are underlings.” Midst the applause due to inspired acting and the skillful direction of Miss Grace Y. Ellsworth, the play ends, leaving the audience feeling philosophically that it has glimpsed a hidden truth. 38 CAST OF CHARACTERS (in order of their appearance) Alice Dearth (known as “Dearth” to acquaintances) Jean Petrillo Mabel Purdie (wife of Jack) Joyce Landay Joanna Trout (single; means to change that) Dolores Saperstein Lady Cawline Iaristocratic, graduate select school) Mildred Rollberg Mrs. Coady (Loves every body second wife of Coady) Nancy Rankin Matey (a born pilferer, butler to Lob) Edmund Reek Mr. Coady (well-fixed financially, so why bother) Horace Klafter Jack Purdie (play boy—between two loves) Sheldon Platt Lob (the evil genius, who sponsors the strange party) William Herrman Will Dearth (whose dreams in life are drowned in a decanter) Moses Snssman Margaret (the daughter who might have been) Margaret Cullen COMMITTEES Publicity Chairman—Inez Rits Robert Krauss, Rirna Berkowitz, Marie Benedetto, Henrietta Ferro.

FOOTBALL...........To I )c guided by “a simply incredible runner and devastat- ing backerup, perhaps the most gifted back ever to come out of Long Island” was the good fortune of this year’s football edition of the Lawrence High School Golden Tornadoes, in the opinion of the New York World Telegram. And indeed. Bill Wilson. Lawrence’s contribution to the schoolboy hall of fame was all that and more. Never in the history of Long Island football has one player done so much to mold the fortunes of his team. In Wilson’s case, the facts speak for themselves. Among other things, he ranked high in the scoring parade, marking up seventy-five points on touchdowns and extra points; he threw three touchdown passes while compiling an almost fifty per cent completion record in this department; he did all his team’s punting, with an average of over forty yards per try; he gained 935 yards from scrimmage, an average of six yards per try, and for the second consecutive year, was named to three major allscholastic teams. Throughout the season, though. ilson received superb support from the rest of an almost all-veteran team. Performing valiantly in the hackfield were Frank “Bucky” Trotta. a slippery broken-field runner, Roy W estlund and Pat Bottiglieri, two hard-charging fullbacks, and Joe “Moose” Maietta, always the snappy hall handler and devastating blocker. The line was led by three players who gained honors on several all-scholastic teams Leroy “Toby” Collins, Bert Gordon, and Felix “Bucky” Bucchioni. From left to right, the Tornado forward wall most often lined up with Collins, Jim Gleason, Gordon, Bucchioni. Ralph Lopresti, Bill Bryant, and Ed Reck. Boys who did not see too much action hut played well when they did get in. were Marty Kramer and Les SchafTner, both of whom left early in the year for the Navy, Jim Bevilaequa, Joe Sellitto, Benny Ardito, George Wuncli, Art Iadanza, Percy Hicks, Dick Levine, Pete Napolitano, Boh Montgomery, and Jim Koehler. 53 The regular season saw the Tornadoes finish with live victories and two ties to their credit. This record was good enough to earn a post-season playoff with the Hempstead Tigers, led by such standout hall players as Doug Millette and Mike Carra. Although Lawrence lost this contest hy a 13-7 count, the team was in the game all the way and almost pulled it out of the lire in the last period on a sixty-eight yard sustained drive on the ground hy Bill Wilson. W ith an eye to the future, the JV squad competed against several other schools, taking two victories from Freeport and one each from Chaminadc and Oceanside JVs. That Lawrence did reach the playoffs was indeed a line tribute to the excellent coaching staff Mr. Nick Farina, head coach; Mr. Walter Vanderhush, line coach; Mr. Edward Andrews, haeklield coach.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL..............The Freshman Football Team, under the su- pervision of Coach Ernest Hirsch, completed their 1944 season with a record of four wins, two defeats, and one tie. Offensive leader of the team was FYed Mari who amassed a total of forty-two points in interscholastic competition, while Hay DiSihio was the shining defensive light of the squad. Among the other “freshies” who showed promise for the future are Hay Sorrentino, George Tavalaro, Jim Basile and Michael Facapoulas. The team, organized primarily to develop material for future service on the varsity, competed against other Freshman and J squads. Perhaps the year’s most exciting contest was that of October 16 against the nod mere JVs. Trailing by a 14-13 count with hut twenty seconds to play. Little Tornado strategy called for a pass. A desperation toss hy Tavalaro bounced from the outstretched arms of a Woodmerc hack into the arms of Basile, in the end zone, for the winning points. 54 CROSS COUNTRY.. . . . An innovation at Lawrence this year, the Cross Country Team, ably coached by Mr. alter Aimer, performed quite well in its two contests of the season. A dual meet with Garden City at Hempstead Lake State Park was dropped by a narrow 28-27 count despite the fact that Cleveland “Cush Freamon and Tom Crane finished one and two for Lawrence. Competing for the Long Island sectional championships at Hempstead, the Lawrenc-ians placed eighth in a field of eighteen schools. At this meet Freamon captured the fourth position and a well-deserved award along with it. Other Branehers who figured in the scoring were Mark McGuire, Ed Seward, Boh Cooke, and Phil Crane. BOW LING..........Lawrence’s representatives “on the alleys” once again turned in a creditable job. As usual, coached by “Pop” Pierce, the squad entered in regular league competition. Hit by the loss of Balpli Bevilacqua and several other veterans, the 1945 group did not place as high as their 1944 blood brothers bad. However, led by Jimmy Bevilacqua, the team showed plenty of spirit and made it tough for their opponents throughout the past season. CROSS COl NTRY TEAM Back row: Davis. Spot tore. Cooke. O’Keeffe.

VARSITY BASKETBALI..............The 1945 Lawrence High School Basketball team wound up its season with a record of nine wins and three losses in South Shore Athletic League competition. In addition, the team had a four and two record in non-league encounters. Tied with Freeport’s Bed Devils for second position in Class “A”, the Lawrence cagers trounced these old rivals by a 40-33 count in a special match, thereby gaining a berth in post-season championships. This was of little avail, however, as the Oceanside Sailors took the measure of the Buff and Blue quintet in the semi-final round at the Wood mere gym hy a 42-38 tally. Leaders of the team throughout the season were Albie Muzzillo and Bill Wilson, who racked up 209 ami 176 points respectively in regular season play. Great defensive play hy Barney Shields and Bob Bullwinkle, and the steady all-around play of Leroy “Toby” Collins marked this year’s squad as one of the best in recent years. Other boys who saw varsity action included Guy Becker, Art Mager. Harv Levine, Ben Ardito, Ernie Hose, Lou Musacbio, Bob Landsman, and Fere Hicks. High points of the season were the win over Woodmere in which Wilson scored seven- teen points, ami the Mepham game in which Muzzillo exploded for twenty. This is Coach W alter Vanderbush’s last year as mentor of the team, and a great deal of credit must go to him. Let the overwhelming number of victories scored in the years of bis guidance serve as a cherished reminder of a superb leader and a “swell” fellow. JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALI.............. Despite the transfer of three players to the varsity squad at the beginning of the season, and the subsequent occasional loss of a man to the “big boys”, the junior varsity basket- 56 INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL Back row: Cisario.

Coached by Mr. Walter Vanderbush, several of the hoys showed great improvement and will he fine prospects for next year. Those who saw most action were Ben Ardito, Lou Musachio, Hay DeSihio, Eddie Koehler. George Tavalaro, John Provenzano, and George Wunch. Others who played were Boh Abrams, Steve Zimmerman, Jack Hiordan. Don Crocker, Paul Cana mare, and “Toot” Porctta. Most outstanding, perhaps, was Hay Oe Sihio, who, although not the high scorer of the team, turned in a fine job of setting up plays, snaring loose halls, plus scoring a few points each game. High point-getters were Benny Ardito and Lou Musachio, hotli steady, all around performers. As a unit, the JV turned in their best performance in the first game against the South-side JV. In this contest, the “Little Tornadoes went wild, scoring a stunning 41-13 victory. INTRAMURAL BASKET BALI.............Under the supervision of Mr. Nicholas Farina, six teams competed after school on Fridays for the intramural crown. In this way, many hoys who could not make the varsity or J squads got a chance to play a part in the sport. Standout players included Tom Shearer, Percy Hicks, “Cush Freamon, Saul Slomiak. Bill Davis, Halph Lopresti, Dave Slomiak. “Bueky Trotta, and Seth Hosenthal. J. V. BASKETBALL Buck row: Mr. Vanderbush, Musachio. Wunch. Koehler. Zimmerman. Provenzano. Front row: Crocker. Riordun.

TRACK........... ith the first call for candidates in the spring, Coach Frank Whitman found on hand the usual large number of hopefuls led by a mere handful of veterans of former campaigns, all eager to qualify for places on the 1945 Lawrence High School track and field squad. The 1944 team, predecessors of this hopeful group of athletes, had placed third in tlie annual South Shore Athletic League competition at Allen Field in Rockville Center and had maintained a record which was better than average in dual meets. In the ranks of sprint runners, this year’s squad found itself without the services of Hill ilson, crackerjack veteran of several years’ competition. In the middle distances, graduation and other events had claimed such seasoned runners as Mark McGuire and Tom O’Connor. Hurdlers lost to this year’s squad include Fred Ackel and Marvin Richfield. It was in the longer distance events, however, that the Branchers lost the greatest number of vets, Cleveland 66 Cush” Freamon, Marty Mines, Tom Crane, Carl Luther and Dave Finkelstein being the most prominent. From the 1944 list of entrants in the field events, the 1945 team found itself minus the services of Mike Gismonde, ace pole-vaulter, Larry Laskey and Ronnie Ross, shotputters. and high jumpers Harry Richter and Mac Williams. Despite tli is huge loss in manpower, the 1945 squad entered in regular competition, and the spirit and ability of the individual team members are a credit to the fine coaching chores turned in by Mr. Whitman. Mainstays of this year’s team were Ronnie Cameron, Charles Cronin. Artie ladanza, Ed Seward, Boh Cooke, llarv Levine, Dick “’Big Red Levine, Boh Westervelt. Boh Segal. Boh Bullwinkle, and W alt Smith. It was on the shoulders of these hoys, together w ith several promising newcomers, that the fortunes of the Buff and Blue of Lawrence High School rested, as they pounded their wray on the cinders of tracks scattered all about Long Island. 58 TENNIS...........The 1945 edition of racket wielders representing Lawrence High School, went off to the tennis wars as defending champions of the South Shore At li letic League title. The ’44 squad, led by Morty Shapiro, “Dusty” Rhodes, and Harv Levine had plowed through all opposition to take for themselves and Coach Frank Cameron their first championship in several years. Boys from this group who were lost to the team this year included Shapiro. Boh Scheiber, Walter Fingerhut, and Boh Gort. Despite the loss, the team went forth, ranking near the top among South Shore teams. The singles players who sparked the team were Rhodes and Levine. Third singles position and the various doubles combinations were wide-open struggles among Steve Zimmerman, Howie Back. Don Granger, Boh Segal, and Boh Green, all veterans of doubles competition last year. In addition, there was the usual group of hopeful newcomers, several of whom showed to good advantage, and others whose talents may well he useful in later years, when the 1945 squad is hut a memory. COACHES..........Eleven men officially made up the group engaged in coaching Lawrence High School’s athletes through their paces. Forrester W. “Pop” Pierce, Athletic Director, turned in his usual fine job of arranging schedules and generally supervising all school sports events. In addition “Pop served as coach of the howling squad. Mr. Leslie Outterson, assisted by Mr. William Caton, acted as Faculty Manager of all athletics until his departure from the school in December. Succeeding Mr. Outterson in this important post was Mr. Ernest Hirscli. Mr. Hirsch, in the fall, had been freshman football coach. Football, perhaps Lawrence’s favorite sport, once again was under the able tutelage of Head Coach Nick Farina. Assisting him were Backfield Coach Ed Andrews and Line Coach Walter Yanderhush. However, baseball, another favorite, was Mr. Andrews’ chief pride and joy. Mr. Yanderhush kept well occupied as head TENNIS TEAM Back row: Granger, Rhodes, Mr. Cameron, Levine, Segal. Front row: R.

With the arrival of Spring, it was Mr. Frank hitman who advised the track team on the proper way to “churn those legs”, and it was Mr. Frank Cameron who advised his tennis squad to “keep charging that net.” Mr. Edmund Kavanagh once again led the Brancher golf team as they drove and putted their way around the local golf courses in quest of championships. Mr. Walter Ahner inaugurated a crosscountry team, which met with great favor. 59 Hack row: Rizzo, Becker. Collins. DeLeo, W ilson. Second row: Hazel. Bottiglieri. Cizek.

Trotta, Gardner. BASEBALL .... The 1945 baseball squad, hard hit, as were all other athletic squads this year by a “manpower problem” again turned in a creditable performance in competition in the South Shore Athletic League. Hempstead, which had won the Section 1 and also the league championship in 1944, again had a good team to defend its laurels. Soon after the first practice, called early in March, the schedule was released. Following the opening away game against Oceanside on April tenth, the Tornadoes played Hempstead, Central and Baldwin, all away from home. The return match with Hempstead at home followed on May first in the home opener. Next Sewanhaka and Mepham, both old rivals, were met on “foreign” fields. Then a long string of home games, beginning on May ninth with ood-mere as the opponent, followed. Freeport, Central, Baldwin, Chaminade, Ocean-side, Sewanhaka, Woodmere and Mepham were included in this list. The final regular game was at Freeport against the Bed Devils. With the announcement of the schedule, it was believed that all home games would he played “under the lights” at Cedarhurst Stadium, unless war directives forced the abandonment of such a plan. The 1945 diamond men were composed of several veterans of the past campaign. plus a sprinkling of hoys with JV experience and the usual large number of hopefuls. A great deal of the burden fell on the shoulders of Lefty Luke Hummel and Bill Wilson. It was Hummel, veteran of many an encounter and little Pat Bottiglieri, who had seen JV action, who supported and were the mainstays of the pitching staff. Behind the plate was Ralph Lopresti, holding up the pitchers’ slants. The outfield found Bill Wilson, Percy Hicks, A1 Foglietta, Sol Scarandino, and Johnny Venezio in action, while Benny Hazel, Bucky Trotta. Johnny DeLeo, Guy Becker. Cosmo Polilano and Pete Napolitano were in the infield. 60 MANAGERS .... Too much credit can not be given to that group of boys who toil so much on the athletic fields, but whose efforts are not always recognized. For the managers, while not competing with other sehools in athletic encounters, perform a task necessary to any team. These hoys do the “odd jobs” —that is, anything and everything that one can think of. Such teams as tlie football, baseball, basketball and tennis squads would not he the smooth-running groups they are without the aid of these hoys. Westlund snares a pass.

TUMBLING CLUB____________If one had passed by the Correction Room any Mon- day afternoon the past year, he would probably have seen a small group of hoys seemingly flying through the air and tying themselves in knots. Upon a closer inspection, the passer-by would have seen a clever, well-organized group, under the direction of Mr. Frank Whitman practicing various forms of what is known as the “royal art of Tumbling”. This group was specially selected for the ability and interest that they had shown in tumbling in their respective gym classes. They found it both interesting and healthful to go on to more complicated and difficult feats, and to practice regular routines. • This is the first year that such a club has functioned successfully at Lawrence, and the members hope that future years will see bigger and better activities for them. 61 luria, Landau, Back rou Donald. . reig.

Teachers and students alike realize the sincere willingness to work, and the true athletic skill which the gym leaders demonstrate all through the school year. Proficient in a somewhat different way are our attractive CHEER LEADERS. Du ring the football season they could he found out in the stadium cheering our Golden Tornadoes to victory; in the winter they were rousing the spirits of the basketball fans. This select group was headed by Rita Laima and Mary Goddard and seemed better than ever this year. That colorful huff and blue array has become such a familiar sight on our athletic fields, that ardent spectators wonder if Lawrence sportsmen could do as well without them.

Twice a week, if one were to peek into the gym, he was likely to hear familiar phrases something like this: “Help it over’’, “keep the hall up”, or “two hands for beginners”. The girls did themselves proud this year when they played ood-mere. Despite keen competition, all teams won except the Juniors. Our Honor Team was unable to participate in the play-day because of transportation difficulties. To some people, volleyball seems to he an inactive sport, hut really there is nothing more exciting or more active than a cooperative, well played game. It is only when the players become careless, and try to play the entire game themselves, that this keen game may seem uninteresting and motionless. The girls BASKETBALL season started out with the usual enthusiasm. Class teams were formed first off with Senior coaches chosen to lend a helping hand to the somewhat bewildered Freshmen. The Sophomores too, received some coaching from those girls who desired extra credit for this service. Every Tuesday and Thursday the girls practiced diligently until they were skillful enough to compete with rival teams. Woodmerc was their first opponent, and all teams gained a victory with the exception of the Juniors. Poor Juniors . . . they tried so hard! However, the contest with Central did not have such a happy ending. Senior and Sophomore teams both lost, and by large scores too. In order to select the Honor Team, a return game was arranged with Woodmerc, and only the likely prospects were given a chance to compete. They w'ere carefully observed by the coaches. With this game as the final test, the varsity was chosen, and the fortunate girls were privileged to play at the play-day held at Lynhrook High School. Lawrence had seen better days. On that gloomy Saturday morning the basketball team which hoped to he a winning unit, lost two games, tied one and defeated only one opponent.

TABLE TENNIS Hark row: Finkelstein, Rhodes, Seid, Breakstone. Nessler. Front row: Gelb. Dan iger. Miss Cleary, Pearson. Volleyball and basketball are probably two of I he most cooperative sports Lawrence lias to offer. It was heartening to find such a large group desirous of participating in them. Making a comeback after three years, is the ever popular field HOCKEY. During the fall season quite a large group met with Mrs. Baker in the stadium where they were coached until they were able to make a good showing against W oodmcre. The score stood at 2-2 with Carmclla Fusco, Captain, and Harriet Schlief making the goals for Lawrence. As a result of this renewed attempt, after a few years Lawrence will no doubt regain the fine reputation in hockey that it formerly enjoyed. Under the enthusiastic guidance of Miss Cleary, TABLE TENNIS reached new heights this year. Because such a large number signed up for this sport, strict regulations were enforced and many girls were obliged to drop out of the club. A ladder tournament was played; thus, after many closely contested games, the six best players were determined. Betty Rhodes held the undisputed number one position at all times. At the play-day held at Lawrence we took first place, winning seven games out of nine. Betty Rhodes played first singles, Florence Seid second singles; while Peggy Gelb and Jane Breakstone came through victoriously in the doubles position. Diligent and faithful practice brought excellent results to the table tennis participants. 64 Both in the fall, and in the spring, the TENNIS enthusiasts crowded the Lawrence courts, rallying, serving, volleying, and chasing halls too (we must admit). Here again Miss Cleary supervised earnestly, and with good results. Three of our outstanding players were: Frances Goldenherg, sophomore, Lucille Bensinger, sophomore, and Jane Breakstone, freshman. As you see, the lower classmen did remarkably well this year. We must not fail to mention Betty Rhodes, a junior, who is prohahlv the very best tennis player of which the Lawrence girls’ team has been able to boast. At the play-day, held on home courts, Lawrence ranked first in the singles tournament, and took second place in the doubles competition. I wonder if all the girls realize howf fortunate we are to have six wonderful tennis courts right on school grounds. Only in the spring did the ARCHERY lovers have a chance to shoot their arrows in to the hull’s eye, or into the target at any rate. Almost every archer who conies out after school owns her personal set of arrows. Mrs. Barber, who has attended an archery camp herself, really taught the girls under her supervision some fine points about this specialized sport. A pastime for young ami old, Lawrence’s fame in the archery field, is known and respected by virtually every school on the island. Hard work, cooperation, and the ability to take command, symbolize these two girls’ clubs. The members are leaders in every sense of the word. TENNIS Hack rote: Hits, Simmonds. Rhodes. Breakstone.

The Peninsula Alleys were not void of the Lawrence BOWLING club this winter. Indeed not! There were sixty participants in all with the beginners howling on Wednesday, and the more advanced howlers on Friday. In the Freshmen Club Harriet Schleif maintained the best average of 117. In the more advanced group. Betty Donald attained 176, Frances Olivieri 170, Henrietta Ferro 162, Lucille Bensinger 159. Marilyn Shaw 156, and Annette Mazza 155. It seemed as if a new high were reached this year. The howling schedule included vying with such teams as East Rockaway and Valley Stream. Betty Donald and Lucille Bensinger were the high scorers in this contest. Miss Davis, who supervised both clubs, is an ardent howler herself. and was always ready with a helping hand wherever needed. BADMINTON is another activity that has made a comeback this year. Once again, Mrs. Barber undertook the task of instructing a small, hut eager group in this field. Southside was the team’s first competition. The spirit to win was keen on both sides. Experience was in our rival’s favor and the game went to them. The Lynbrook contest, too, was disappointing to Lawrence. This time we shall charge out losses up to inexperience. Next year the badminton team will remain undefeated, we are certain. However, the girls who participated in this sport deserve much credit because they attended practice faitli- BOWLING Standing: Olivieri. Donald. Shaw. Seated: Ferro, Miss Davis. Farina.

Not the Conga—Kickball in the gym. 66 l I lie top of the Lawrence High School club roster, in a little niche by itself, stands the HONOR SOCIETY. This is no organization of little merit with an imposing title. Its members are literally the cream of the Lawrence student body. They have been chosen for four basic qualifications: leadership, scholarship, character, and service. Ibis year, with Mr. Cecil MacDonald as supervise! , the Honor Society again undertook the selling of war bonds and stamps to the students, and aided materially in many of the social functions during the school year. To the honor society and its members we will always owe much in the way of high ideals and a fine example set for all. The officers serving for the first term were Hits, Tannenhaum, Black, and Rosenblatt; for the second term they were Millstein. Silverman. Klafter. and Wcstlund. Mr. Andrews was faculty treasurer.

Product of a hundred minds, hearts, and hands the 1945 LAWRENCIAN stands forth as a shining example of what can he done by Lawrence High School students despite war time disadvantages. We now present to you those who have had a major part in writing, collecting, and editing material, and in seeing that dead lines were made and met. The tasks of editor-in-chief and of faculty adviser were awarded to Barbara Gladstone and M iss Mabel Leavitt, both Lawrencian veterans, who had under their supervision the Literary and the Business staffs. These groups were further divided into heads of departments. Accountable for Senior writeups and Senior celebs were Barbara Lieberman and Fred Rosenblatt. School life was covered by Ella Federico and Moses Sussman. Club news found its editors in the guise of Rima Berkowitz and Sheldon Platt. Inez Ritz and Howard Back were heads of girls and hoys’ sports respectively. Robert W alker represented the Vocational school and helped most of the departments by serving as a link between the two schools. After these choices were made, Lawrencian room 206, as well as several other rooms in the school, was a hustle of activity as pencils started flying at sudden inspirations, meetings occurred to decide assignments, money came rolling in. and the typewriters started another season of clicking. We can’t complete our picture of the literary staff until we mention the students, whose faces appear in the photo on this page. They have worked tirelessly all year gathering small hits of information ami writing numerous articles. We wish also to heap praise upon our typists, Kay Jones, Ceola Brown, Margaret Ouinn. and Frances Covello, who were faced with the difficult assignment of deciphering handwritings, and to extend our many thanks to Robert Krauss, who uncomplainingly ran errands of all varieties during the production of the hook. 70 A literary staff alone, though, cannot make a book, ami on this page we introduce you to the other major boards of our Lawrencian. Doris Graubart was the Business manager ami worked with her two able assistants Marie Benedetto, who controlled circulation, and John Lesser who looked after the advertising. The art editor was Henrietta Ferro and the imagination and ingenuity of both her and such staff members as Robert estcrfell, Robert Black, and Robert Kbel can he seen running throughout the hook. On the spot whenever a picture was to he taken we always found Donald Gladstone, photography editor, and Herbert Horowitz and Lila Adelson. photography managers.

The busiest home room in good old L. II. S. is Room 233 where tlie enterprising journalists of the MENTAL PABULUM gather to assemble ami edit Lawrence’s official school paper. For the second successive year, all the Pabulum scriveners have been located in the same room in order to secure the best working efficiency. Under the untiring supervision of Mrs. Madeline F. Denton and co-editors, Howard Rack and Ella Federico, the Pabulum has passed the twelve-year mark with banners flying. Living up to the slogan, “of the students. by the students, and for the students,” the paper has provided well-rounded coverage of sports, faculty, alumni, and school news. Lawreneians showed their approval of the writers’ efforts by boosting circulation to a new height. The greatest reward received by the editors and writers was the thanks and praise from the hoys in service to whom copies of every issue were sent. This important angle was handled capably by Marie Benedetto and Donald Bluniberg, who worked diligently after every issue was published to see that the papers were distributed. The student body is again indebted to the entire staff for its fine achievements this season.

Without a douht. the Buskins have earned for themselves a place of distinction and have become an integral part of the Lawrence tradition. That this is true is due mainly to the fine work of the adviser, .Miss Grace W. Ellsworth. M iss Ellsworth has been undiring in her efforts to secure the best. Time and time again, through her patient efforts, she molded students into fine, capable artists. The annual Buskin tournaments that M iss Ellsworth has produced have earned the plaudits of audiences both for the fine acting and for the professional touch that is always present. The club and the school will always he indebted to her. This year, in their fourteenth annual tournament, the Buskins presented three plays: “The Tricking of Malvolio,” a farce adapted from Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night”; “Maid of France,” a drama in a prologue and one scene of Franco during the first World W ar; and “It Had to Be You,” a comedy dealing with the trials and tribulations of adolescence. The three plays were received enthusiastically, with Sheldon Platt, of Maid of France,” receiving the award for the best performance of the evening. From the proceeds, SI00 was contributed to the Bed Cross. The Buskins devoted their efforts not entirely to dramatics for during the year the club sponsored a paper drive throughout the school, collecting 1500 pounds. At Christmastime, the Buskins campaigned for money for the Salvation Army, turning over to them S20 in small change. In March, the Thespians journeyed to New York, to witness a performance of Shakespeare's “The Tempest,” which production they enjoyed immensely. The final curtain of the year was rung down at a successful party in the Spring, entertainments and refreshments being provided by members of the club. All hands had the usual “terrific” time. 'File officers for the two school terms were as follows: President, Sheldon Platt; Vice-Presidents, Bill McClelland, Fred Abrams; Treasurer.

In December of 1944 the Hi-Y sent two delegates to Albany to sit in the state assembly and one to sit in the senate. The representatives were Ann Hudson. George Colli-gan, and Audrey Specht. The latter went as Secretary of the Nassau Area Council and returned with the added title of Secretary of the New York State Cabinet.

N This year our forensic association lias been immensely concerned with discussion of School and community problems and one outstandingly successful outcome of these debates was the Forum dance, a splendid symbol of school cooperation. The combination of wrinkled foreheads, hands cupped under chins, confused looks and would-be Einsteins can mean only one filing, the Lawrence High School MATH CLUB. The first and third Wednesday of each uinntli finds -ijiese expounders of mathemat- ical wonders with their superviser, Miss Florence ood, solving brain-twisting problems, w'orking mathematical tricks, and engaging in quizzes about their favorite subject. The officers this year include Alan Levy, President; Daniel Tannenbaum, Vice-President; Sandra Gassman, Secretary; and Fred Rosenblatt, Treasurer. The success of this club is due to the cooperation and keen interest of all its members. If some Thursday afternoon you dared to venture into the billowing clouds of smoke and poisonous fumes issuing from the Chemistry lab, you would find yourself either in the middle of a four-alarm fire or in a meeting of the SCIENCE CLUB. 79 SEWING Back rote: Zullo.

These enterprising young scientists, whose theme song is “Scrub Me Mama With the H2S04,” met here every other Thursday under the direction of Mr. W alter Aimer to conduct experiments and discussions. The discussions were given by different members of the club on topics of interest sucli as Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. At other meetings, movies pertaining to different phases of science were shown. Although the club got off to a late start in November, the rest of the year was a success for all concerned. The needles are flying through the material, the scissors are clicking, tlie sewitig machine is getting another work-out, and the girls of the SEWING CLUB, under the wratchful eye of Mrs. Elmetta DeMott, are busy making afghans and utility hags for the Nassau County Chapter of the Junior Bed Cross. For their skill in the use of the thread and needle they have found an additional outlet by making clothes for themselves. At Christmas time a spreading tree, food, amateur fortune tellers, and other entertainment helped celebrate this joyous holiday. President Thercse Ahrams, Vice-President Doris Place, and Secretary-Treasurer Annette Mazza all aided in the festivities. “Shakespeare is on the fifth shelf. Yes, we stamp the books that you take out.” These are some of the questions that members of the LIBRARY CLUB, under the capable supervision of Miss Ruth Ice, have to answer. Their jobs consist of preparing hooks for circulation, paging hooks, and dusting and arranging the hooks that the other students disarrange to the best of their ability. The girls, eighteen of them, elected Jessie Fahrizio president and Joan Smith secretary-treasurer. Included in the club’s many activities wrere a Christmas party held in the library and two picnics at Hempstead State Park, one in the fall and the other in the spring. Amidst much applause the curtain came down on the second annual play presented 80 by the SECRETARIAL CLUB and their adviser Mrs. Katherine B. Jack, on — yes, you guessed it the do’s and dont’s of a good secretary. This enterprising club has also presented the movie “Caught in the Draft” and has bad a cookie sale and chocolate cake sale which aroused oh’s and yum yum’s from all Law-rencians who tasted the delicacies.

Tempus fugit” and so another year has passed in the annals of the LATIN CLUB. Such interesting and varied programs on men like Cicero and Virgil have been presented during the term. At Christmas time a play was given about the Latin holiday of Saturnalia. which corresponds to our Christmas, and the singing of Christmas carols in Latin helped bring the spirit of the occasion to Lawrence High. Under the guidance of Alan Borgenicht as President, Margie Plaut as Vice-President. Jane Horwitz as Secretary, and Patsy Wohlgemuth as Treasurer, and with Miss Mabel Leavitt as faculty adviser, this club has succeeded again this year in their aim of acquiring a deeper understanding of Latin culture. hen President Fred Rosenblatt calls for order, Vice-President Ella Federico sits calmly hv, Secretary Sandra Gassman is busy correcting last meeting minutes and Treasurer Bill McClelland is collecting dues amid lots of parlez-vousing and desirez-vous to do so and so, you know that another meeting of the FRENCH CLUB has come to order.

Their group activities have included seeing a French movie and dining in a restaurant of French cuisine. ith Miss Doris Benson as overseer the club lias conducted another successful season, familiarizing themselves with the customs and culture of France. The ITALIAN CLUB once again completed a successful year at the top of the La wrence club roster. The group is a social and cultural organization for the purpose of increasing and bettering an understanding of Italian art, literature, and history among its members. Under the able leadership of Mr. James Simmonds, and with Peter Hose as president, Ella Federico as vice-president, Alfred Cal- velli as treasurer, and Marie Benedette as secretary, the club enjoyed an active season. An amateur hour was again sponsored with Gloria Candreva and Audrey Specht taking first prize, Ronald Cameron second prize, and Elizabeth Markowski taking third. A journey to the city was made, the members enjoying a movie and dinner in an Italian restaurant. With a long record of success behind it the GIG CLUB, under the direction of Miss W inifred E. Sloane, proudly ended its first season. Certainly they were the busy bees of Lawrence, for they went on a field trip to St. Joseph’s Hospital in connection with home nursing, they sponsored the Senior Football dance, they gave a tea dance, and took over the selling of the Herald-Tribune. The most interesting activity and that for which they vill long he remembered was a party which they gave for the children at the Five Towns Community Center.

M iss Winifred E. Sloane has done much to aid the girls in their efforts, and President Louise Petrillo, Secretary Josephine Catalano, Treasurer Elizabeth Sanitate, and Librarian Gloria Happer have all contributed greatly to the success of the club. “I take your pawn! You can’t do that! Check! Checkmate!” These were some of the exclamations heard by those passing the chess room every Tuesday afternoon. This year the CHESS CLUB played only one match and that was with Far Rockaway High School. Lawrence lost by a small margin. In order to conduct business on an orderly basis, the club, under the direction of Mrs. Athena Lee, elected the following chess-masters as officers: Donald Gladstone, President; Norman Finkelstein, Vice-President; Bob Krauss, Treasurer; and Edward Schul-inan as Secretary. Much has been written, more has been said and many discussions have been held, but little has been done to increase vivacity in one’s school and its goings on; that is, little was done until the JUNIOR DEBS decided to do something about adding to school spirit and loyalty.

Dear Joe: In your last letter you asked me to tell you more about our SUB-DEB CLUB and so I shall explain our organization from the bottom up. As members of the Family Relations class of Lawrence High School, our official name, we spend one day every week sending copies of the Mental Pablum and writing letters to you ex-Lawrencians who are now in the armed services overseas. Besides this, the girls were instrumental in the success of the Senior Football dance, the first of its kind at Lawrence, and of a War Stamp tea dance held just previously. One of our most enjoyable activities was our Christmas celebration which we gave in the form of a dinner to ourselves and our adviser. Miss W'inifred E. Sloane. During the preparations, delicious smells wafted through the apartment, and at dinner we proved to ourselves and the world how accomplished we were in the art of cooking........ 83 January, 1945 To Private Lawrence, Somewhere overseas Dear Larry, School started off .... it always does just around the beginning of every September. The first week was spent in gathering our hooks together, getting our schedules changed, and renewing old acquaintances. Getting accustomed to eight periods a day also took quite a lot of time. As usual we received our annual overdose of Freshmen. They were accompanied by their quota of elevators, fifth floors, sub-basements, and crowds going up the down stairways. Coach Farina lost no time in starting his football practice and any afternoon you could see him putting his charges through their paces. If you had been walking through the hack hall on the first floor any time after 3:30 and thought you heard an invading army of female voices, you would’ve had no need to worry. That “army” was only our cheerleaders who were also running through strenuous drills in preparation for the first football game. We couldn’t eat in the gym any more because of the new schedule so it was either the cafeteria or home. After the midday meal we’d stroll into the stadium to watch the hand practice or find a comfortable spot on Hock Hall and have a good “hull session. ’ On September 30 wre all followed the football team out to Sewanhaka. The “Indians” didn’t have a chance from the start. Our hoys got out there and ran circles around them to the tune of 20 to 0. 84 On October third the Junior and Senior history students were treated to a special assembly. It was quite a mystery to all of us until the speaker was introduced. After the assembly we knew all there was to know' about “Greater Los Angeles”. The next day w’e were also treated to an assembly. This time it was a pep rally for the first home football game. The team gave us a sample grass drill” and we really had a good laugh. Mr. Beloof was on hand with the hand and w'e brushed up on a few choruses of “Onward Lawrence” and “Cheer, Cheer for Old Lawrence High”. The cheerleaders inspired us to a T-E-A-M! And we were all in generally high spirits. On Friday night, the sixth, the hoys heat Chaminade 13 to 0. This was due in no small part to our vigorous cheering. On the morning of October 13 the Junior and Senior hoys heard a talk on the opportunities presented by the Army Air Corps. That night we went to the football game to watch the team tie Freeport 6 to 6 on a muddy field. The following week, on the twenty-first, the team battled the Glen Cove eleven to another even score. It was raining again hut that didn't stop us from being right there to see the teams score thirteen points each. This was the month for assemblies and we had no kick coming. On the twenty-fourth we marched into the auditorium in our usual orderly fashion to hear a fine program by the mixed chorus. A good time w'as had by all, but that’s not all. We also had shortened periods because of the assembly. This added to the enjoyment of the program in no small part. We, and I mean the “upperclassmen”. Juniors and Seniors to you, received a special treat on the 26th when a Junior Town Hall meeting was held. We went to another football game before the end of the month. This tiling we saw our hoys swamp Mount Pleasant of Schenectady by a score of 32.fo zhi. The Band in formation before a football ganfe. 85 T Enthusiastic Latvrencians at an exciting basketball game. By November most of the student activities were under way. Class officers had been elected and most of the clubs were going strong. If you happened to pass by the dramatic art room any time after school you would have seen the “Buskins” rehearsing for their forthcoming performance. The senior class decided to buy senior hats. This subject occupied a few' more meetings until a style was agreed upon. On the seventh we again followed the football team, this time to Fireman’s Field in Valley Stream. e yelled ourselves hoarse while the team heat Central 7 to 0. We had even more fun as we marched triumphantly to the railroad station with the hand. The talk was flying fast and furiously about a playoff for the championship and ‘“Pop” Pierce spent much of his health classes in explaining just how things were going to turn out. There was just one team left on our schedule and that was Mepham. It was cold, very cold that day, but that didn't stop us from cheering the team on to a 32 to 6 victory. At last the official news came out. We were to play Hempstead for the championship. This called for a pep rally. On the twenty-second we all crowded into the gym to hear the hand play, watch Mr. Bcloof lead the cheering, yell our heads off, and hear the words of wisdom of that renowned sage, Forrester W. “Pop” Pierce. The next day we all migrated to Valley Stream. The team did their best and it was tough to lose hut Hempstead had even a tougher time as they eked out a 13 to 7 victory. At last December came. There were just fifteen more days until vacation. On the first we went to see the Buskin tournament where we hail a swell time. Some of the gang, the more musical ones, left for Freeport to take part in a musical festival to he held the next month. The following night was not a very good one. We went to the Lawrence basketball game. e tried hard and were hoarse for two days hut it didn’t help the team as ood-mere heat them 32 to 31. On December 8 the fellows made up for it by heating Central 32 to 24 in the first home game. The dramatic art room again became the scene of activity as the Christmas program went into rehearsal. On the tenth of the month we went to hear the mixed chorus at school. It was their annual Christmas program and they presented Handel’s Messiah. On the night before, the basketball team went to Long Beach. They returned with another victory of 32 to 22 to their credit. At last the day of days came. It was the fifteenth. We all had a good time as the assembly was swell. Better yet were the classes, especially the ones we spent in the auditorium while some talented Lawrencian played the piano and we all sang for all we were worth. We really had a swell time. There was one sad note to this day. I guess you remember Mr. Outterson. He was with Lawrence High for a long time, but left our Alma Mater to work in another field. The faculty shifted in order to close the gap which his absence created. That’s all there is to write about now. . . . So long! 86 Sincerely, “Some of the gang”. June, 1945 To Private Lawrence Somewhere overseas Dear Larry, hen somethin : fine comes to an end, it's natural to turn your thoughts hack in reminiscence. Well, we're doing just that. Although another term has passed, we have many events to recall, many scenes to revisualize, many memories to keep as souvenirs. Why, we can remember (though not too happily) hack to January when our basketball team lost its first two games of 1945 to Freeport, 31-28, and to Sewanhaka, 38-18. But we remember, too, the next streak of wins they added up, defeating Hempstead. Me-pliam. Woodmere, South side. Central. Baldwin, Long Beach, and Freeport. Sewanhaka stopped the “Cagers on February 13 (unlucky number, you know) by defeating them 51-38. Our team successfully concluded the month of February with three wins over Hempstead, Baldwin, and Mepham. I'm sure you haven't forgotten Regents week. It docs spoil January, doesn't it? Regents are probably the one thing we'll want to forget. If you had been around school the 29th of January you would have seen the seniors sporting their huff and blue senior hats; it was a new idea. As the seniors said: they wanted “something to remember Lawrence by.” Lawrence lost Mrs. Anne Palmer just before this term began. She left to live with her husband in Lake George, New York. (Remember her enjoyable art classes?) Mrs. W alter Abner replaced her, and did a grand job of it. The Girls Hi-Y Club (which, by the way, is now called Theta Omega) sponsored something novel on February 10—a Country Party, with square dancing and all! Golly, it was fun! (would busily engaged in the intricacies of a lathe. really tops . Gloria Candreva and Audrey Specht twirled, and walked off with the 1st prize. Ronald Cameron and Elizabeth Mar-kowski were the other winners. It’s remarkable how much talent wc have here at Lawrence! The Band and Orchestra shared the spotlight on February 15 and gave an assembly program. There was music for every mood. Our own Mixed Chorus came out in all its splendor on February 20 and presented a concert of light music; all our favorites— “Night and Day , “My Shining Hour , “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes , “OP Man River Our Mixed (.horns ‘ in action at an assembly program. Remember the annual Amateur Hour put on hy the Italian Club? This year it was 87 Ferraro and Ferris “dressed” for welding. A snow ball fight in the school yard in February. Wont our boys be perfect specimens of men when Mr. Whiman gets through with them? .... It was a great hit and everyone talked about it for weeks. The annual Table Tennis Play-Day was held at Lawrence this year, with our players winning top honors. They competed against Lynbrook, Malverne, and Southside, and won seven games out of nine. March saw the end of basketball. On the 2nd we defeated Southside, and the following day we were victorious in the playoffs for second place in the Class “A” division of the SSAL. But on March 6 our team met Oceanside in the first round of the South Shore Championship and were defeated. Yet, no one would hesitate to admit that this year’s season was a brilliant one in the ranks of Lawrence High School basketball. Do you recall last year’s Forum Dance? It was such a success that another was given on March 3. You guessed it—it was even a greater success. The Mixed Chorus traveled to Mitchel Field on the evening of March 9 to sing for the hoys stationed at the Cantonment Hospital and were enthusiastically welcomed! That event of events, tlie Senior Play, was presented on March 23. The play was “Dear Brutus” by James Barrie, and the cast an exceptionally good one. The auditorium was filled to capacity. Spring’s major sport, baseball, made its debut on April 10. Playing a full schedule, our team met 10 of its opponents in night games. Not to be shaded hy baseball, track and tennis held the spotlight early in Spring, too. The College Entrance Examination Board Exams were given on April 7, and several of our seniors took them. A series of preparatory classes were given to them in March and April hy Miss Nelle Kelley and Miss Florence Wood. A few outstanding Latin students entered the annual Latin Contest held in April. Spending his last Spring at Lawrence was Mr. Walter Vander-hush. All Lawrencians, we’re sure, will feel the loss of such a fine teacher and a fine man. Mr. Vanderhush will he director of a YMCA in New Jersey. Lucky people, those Grangers! The Hi-Y Cluhs held a formal farewell reception in honor of our two departing faculty members. Mr. Cecil C. MacDonald and Mr. Walter II. Vanderhush in April. A musicale, dancing, and refreshments helped to make it a memorable event. Two of our most active clubs, the Italian Club and the Secretarial Club rewarded themselves for the year’s work hy spending a day in New York City in May. 88 Join us in giving a hand to the girls of the Sewing Cluh? They worked diligently all year to complete an afglian, a wrork of art, for the Junior Red Cross. If you should enter the auditorium, I’d wager you would still hear the applause ringing from the Chorus’s presentation of a United Nations Concert. It was definitely one of the brightest doings in May. More about our music department. . . . On May 18, 19 selected students from the Rand, Chorus, and Orchestra attended the Sectional Finals at Farmingdale, L. I. Several of the students entered the State Finals Competition. • The Home Economics seniors in the Vocational D group arranged original entertainment for the hoys at Mitehel Field and presented it in May. The interpretation was in popular music. The seniors wrere at it again with an original idea. For the first time in Lawrence High, they conducted Senior Day, and “took over” the school. What a day that was! Of all the months on the school calendar, perhaps June is the one which holds the dearest memories. The 1945 I.awrencian is an album of memories in itself. We’ll always remember the June Night exercises, w'ith the proud honor students repeating their pledge to scholarship, character, leadership, and service. Of course Regents darkened the June skies, but the Prom was our silver lining. This year’s affair was one of the loveliest ever held here. And then, the dearest of them all—Commencement; an appropriate ending to four unequaled years of work and play at Law'rence. There was a sad note to June this year, however. No longer shall Lawrencians encounter the smiling face of Cecil C. MacDonald, Principal of Lawrence High School for 32 years, for he announced his retirement.
