Tefft. F C) R E W OKI) I HIS year’s 1-awrencian tells a story. In a sense, it is the story of 250-odd pioneers who entered upon a serious and important adventure in life. Although not the first to embark upon this adventure, they may be considered pioneers, since the trail they followed was a long, perilous one and each day presented new and previously unknown experiences. Their goal was ever uncertain, although they had heard of the treasures that lay before them and the important part these treasures were to play in their future lives. The going was difficult. Year after year several members found they could go no further and dropped by the wayside. Finally, after four tiring yet happy years, our band of adventurers reached their goal. As you may have guessed, the pioneers we have been speaking of are the members of the class of '49. As you may also have guessed, this story, like most, has a moral—a moral best illustrated by looking back in history. For this is the year 1949, and a century ago a group of pioneers like those in our story also started upon an adventure. I heir trek across the dangerous and unknown West to the gold fields of California was not so much inspired by a yearning for the material gold itself, but rather for what this gold meant to their future and happiness. In a sense, you, the student body of Lawrence High School, are '49ers—pioneers. Like your predecessors of yesteryear; today your journey is not an easy one. Likewise, your goal is not the graduation ceremony, but the higher and finer goals in life which your four years at Lawrence will enable you to envision. Nothing o u 1 d f i n e WSX . y,i I mfl g than to be a forty-niner BOARD OF EDUCATION THE members of the Board of Education are the elected representatives of the citizens of our community. As a committee, they constitute tlie supreme governing authority which deals with all matters relating to our educational system. The people of this school district have exercised great discretion in selecting the five capable men, pictured below, to serve on their Board. Although pressed by other duties, they give liberally of their time, thought, and effort in order that the business of our school district may be administered as efficiently as possible and the taxpayers’ money expended most effectively. Although very few of us realize the extent of the work carried on by the Board of Education, we all, faculty and student body alike, owe the Board members a debt of gratitude for providing us with the Lawrence High School we know today. Seated—Mr. EUlred, Mr. Sliaskan, Chairman of Hoard, Mr. Tost. Stand ini —l)r. Vivona, Mr. Reilly. Lawrence V. Dodd The Superintendent of schools speaks. . . Greetings to the Class of 1949: To chronicle the activities of Lawrence High School, to capture something of its spirit, and to establish a means of recalling to the students their life in I-awrence High School is the purpose of the yearbook. The public school is a highly effective training ground for democracy. It must develop in young people the determination to pitch in and make democracy work at every level. Working together in high school activities is a most effective preparation for the application of the principles of unity and cooperation in adult civic life. Learning to face issues squarely in student life is the best training for making unbiased decisions in adult life. I hope your school activities have been vital and interesting. You have entered into them with enthusiasm. Your record has been accomplished by constant good work. Best wishes to the Class of 1949. yJIm The Principal speaks ... . . . Members of the Senior Class: Congratulations on having attained another objective—that of graduation from high school. If you have been successful during your years here, it may be largely because you have clung to that objective when you have been tempted by sloth, pessimism, or indifference. If you have not already done so, establish a new objective. Never be without one. It is one sure road to success. Cecil H. M a Hood The Director of Guidance writes . . . In ancient times there was once voiced a challenge that is still being shouted forth today. I shall not recount the story, but let me state the essence of the challenge. The enemy, in his arrogance, offered to supply the horses for the battle, if those challenged had the men to ride the horses. I fad they the qualified men to seize the opportunity? Today the challenge is still being trumpeted forth. To answer it, society must have the men to ride the horses. 1'he school offers such opportunities through classes, tests, examinations, association with teachers and other pupils and through the facilities of the Guidance stall for all the young people to prepare themselves to make wise choices in life. They can then seize their opportunities for they are prepared—they have learned to ride. When the challenge is blared forth, they can answer the call—“Ride Your Horses.’’ Lyman W. Davison Emma B. Horn The Assistant Director of Guidance writes................................... The Guidance Counselors aim to discover, together with the student, his individual characteristics; his developmental and adjustment needs and to decide with him and his family the specific experiences which will best serve his future academic and vocational plans. These experiences should develop in him the knowledge, habits, powers, and the attitudes whereby he will find his place in the world. By commencement time, the basic fact of relationship should have been learned, a fact which he will reflect in his morals, the values he seeks, the spiritual concepts he holds, and the methods he practices as a member of his community. £ lyt mCG 3. -fki — 9 RUTH E.

Seniors of Lawrence, the Class VV of '4V, about to write our history for all time.” It seems only yesterday that we first entered Lawrence High as little, bewildered freshman. Being not too different from the classes which had gone before us, we met with and overcame all the difficulties which we now know are a vital part of high school life. Determining to make our record parellel that of the pioneers of 1849, we elected Robert De Leo, President; Robert Dembar, Vice-president; Frances Olivieri, Secretary, and Ralph Fabrizio, Treasurer, with Mrs. Lee as faculty adviser. We developed a feeling of pride and school spirit, and became enthusiastic Golden Tornado rooters. In our second year, now sure of ourselves, we found it our turn to look down on the incoming freshmen and demonstrate our ever-growing knowledge. Once more we elected very able officers: President, Gennaro Capozzi; Vice-President, Andy Jonyer; Secretary, I'rank Pezzimenti; Treasurer, Robert De Leo, and Mr. King, advisor. Who among the class of '49 can forget the thrill of becoming an upperclassman and all the wonder that still lay ahead for us? Filled with ambition and energy, we chose Robert De Leo, President; Frank OFFICERS Seated—Mr. KiiiR. Standimi —Pezzimenti. Jonyer, Holland, Iannicelli. Pezzimenti, Vice-President; Stephen Holland, Secretary; Andrew Jonyer, Treasurer, and Mr. Jones, faculty advisor, to head the class. We ordered our senior jewelry early in order to wear it while still juniors and capped the year with a prom, which, in everyone’s opinion, was “out of this world.” Then, all too soon, these wonderful years drew to a close. Once more it was time to elect officers; our capable leaders were Stephen Holland, President; F’rank Pezzimenti, Vice-President; Anna Iannicelli, Secretary; Andrew Jonyer, Treasurer, and Mr. King, faculty adviser. We have so many memories of our last days—the fun and the work, too. Never to be forgotten are the football games, senior hats, college boards, the Lawrencian, and countless other things which made up our last year. We will aways remember the senior play, the excitement of senior day, and the nostalgia of the senior prom. We will always remember, and we will always be grateful for these, the happy years at Lawrence. “Oh, here we are leaving precious f riends, Stepping to a new world, setting our new trends The Senior Class bids farezuell, to all zee make amends. So long to Lawrence High, zve’re at the end.” 16 HONOR SPEAKERS VALEDICTORIAN High man on the senior totem pole this year is Stephen Holland with an average of 93.65. Supporting his scholastic record is a list of extra-curricular activities that would make many a student envious. A natural leader, Steve is known at Lawrence for his keen mind and engaging personality. Besides excelling in classwork, he has consistently won praise as a football star, head boy Marshal, a member of the Honor Society, and last but not least as the President of the Senior Class. SALUTATORIAN Not far behind is our salutatorian, Valerie Silverman, with a 93.31 average. In addition to achieving this high mark, Val has been the President of Gamma Hi-Y, Vice-President of the Buskins, ‘ head girl Marshal, and School Life Editor of the Lawreneian. Much of the credit for the success of the Senior Day Variety Show can be attributed to her hard work. In contrast to the popular belief about the temperament of redheads, Valerie has always shown herself to be a charming and soft-spoken miss. THIRD HONOR SPEAKER The number three student of the graduating class is Louise Finkelstein, with a batting average of 92.79. Secretary of the Buskins, Circulation Manager of the Lawreneian, and Vice-President of Zeta Hi-Y—these reveal some of her many talents. During her Junior year, Louise received the honor of having her name inscribed on the Buskin Cup for an outstanding performance in the 1948 Tournament. 17 PATRICIA ANDOLSCHEK Pat “Not another minute can I stand it.” Sincere . . . tailored woman . . .

W ith heads held high they proudly mounted the majestic front steps and streamed into the school. Inside the office, seniors who were going to teach classes were waiting impatiently to “sign in.” An onlooker may have wondered what was going on, but all good Lawrencians knew that the long-awaited Senior Day had arrived. All students from frosh to upperclassmen look forward to this day when seniors take over and run the school. Even the teachers enjoy it. For most of them it is a holiday when they can retire to the back of the room with a good book or newspaper. Steve Holland and I'rank Pezzi-menti headed our amateur faculty replacing Mr. MaHood and Miss Tefft, respectively. Frank also headed the Senior Day Committee. Then at 2:30 came the main event of the day—the Senior Variety Show and Skit. All upperclassmen Hocked to the auditorium to view a take-off on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scout Program. This event was followed by the last big thrill of the day—the basketball game between the senior boys and the senior girls. The boys vanquished the girls, 54-43. Thus, Senior Day ended—it only happens once —these same seniors will never experience that thrill again, but we're sure they will always remember it. 39 SENIOR PLAY CL AND FOK AMwas an excit-ing comedy, tilled with fun, love and laughter. Under the capable directorship of Miss Grace W. Ellsworth, and the support of a magnificent cast, the play was a smash hit. It took place in a rather shabby part of the city, called Tuxedo Place. Here lived the Benzenes : I )emetrio (Howard Rosenbaum), Anna (Mildred Zacharia), his wife, and Nicola (Frank Pezzimenti) and Pietro (Joe Gelb), his two sons. Sven Svenson (Ronald Johnson) and Cora (Joanne Kasper), his wife, lived just below them in the basement apartment. Across the court, Michael W ebb (Har- the wishes of Linda’s parents, rich society people, and so had moved to Tuxedo Place. Here they became very fond of their neighbors and especially of Nicola and Christine, who were planning to be married. Nicola was employed in some under-handed activities in order to make some quick money. By a twist of fate, a restaurant proprietor was shot by Stew Vanzo, but the culprit escaped; and Nicola was caught. In the meantime, Christine, who had learned of Nicola’s racketeering, had started to date Arnold Rice, supposedly an upright clizen. Michael, wanting to help Nicola and also to get at the heart of First row—Johnson, Kasper, Rosenbaum, Zacharia, Pezzimenti, Rose. Sondheim, Bomzi. DeLeo, Goldman.

Third row—W'illit, Gassman, Bernstein, Wolf, Tenzer. old Bomze), and his young bride, Linda (Sue Sondheim), abided contently. Here, too, were Christine Defarge (Josephine Rose), and her mother, Flora (Margit Wolf). Also living at Tuxedo Place were two ambitious dancers, Lenore Leblanc (Lois Rosenbluth), and Doris Delray (Mary Lynn Rosenberg). Ably assisting these players through their stratagems were Arnold Rice (Barry Tenzer), Stew Vanzo (Michael Levy), Mrs. Bilge (Elise Linsky), Mrs. Walker (Adelaide Cohen), Mrs. Pettigrew (Louise Finkelstein), Mrs. Harrington (Marcia Sakolsky), and Wade Corrigan (John Willett). The main plot is centered around Michael and Linda Webb. They had married against gang rule, attacked rackets both through the newspaper and on the radio. When Stew Vanzo finally confessed, Arnold Rice’s name was brought out as the brains behind the racketeers. Nicola was then set free and Christine once again became his girl. As for Michael, his career was boosted so much by his campaign that he was considered the “Ace” reporter of the city. In conclusion the city, for the first time in history, was “Once and For All” freed from racketeering. The lovely sets that formed the background for “Once and for All” were painted by Barbara Glaser, Virginia Cornell, Helene Feldman and Rosalind Bing. These girls put in hours of hard work after school and truly deserved everyone’s appreciation. 40 “Welcome home, Nicola . . ” “Well, take that clothesline down . . . “So you it was . . ” They also sen e. 41 First row—Vacchio, Lewis, H.

A S S MIDST the rush of obtaining driving licenses, going to sweet sixteen parties, and making the most of being upperclassmen, the Juniors managed to elect for their capable leaders, President, Bobby Jones; Vice-President, Billy Kass; Treasurer, Margot Cohen; Secretary, Angelo Daddona, and for an adviser, the popular Mr. Joseph Page. The fall months of this important year were spent getting acquainted with new subjects and soon one and all were accustomed to hearing, “What's a Logarithm,” or “How many houses are there in Congress?” With regents looming up at the half term, school did not seem like a joyful prospect. Then one day it happened! As their Senior rings, keys and pins were ordered, every Junior realized that soon he or she would be a “smooth senior.” The ending of the term brought thoughts of college applications and college board exams. A remark commonly heard at this time was, “What happened to my 90 average?” The high hopes and aspirations of the Juniors rose again when plans for the “biggest and best” Junior Prom were made. Thanks to the hard work of their adviser, officers and many committees, the Prom was the success of the year. 44 irst row—Maloney, Partland, Schotland, Baynes, Singer, Bernstein, Lowenstein, unidentified, Zirkel, Loevner, Panariello, Osier, Combs, Gribbon, Sarro, Magliaro, Scholl, Malinaro, Parise.

SOPHOMORE C L A S S u I sRESHMEN no longer,” was the cry of the proud Sophs who did not only JL count their blessings, but quickly endeavored to humble the lowly youngsters just entering Lawrence. With this first task “well done,” the Sophomores lost no time in electing Alex Cestra, President; Joan Epstein, Vice-President; Louis Man-gieri, Secretary; Dominic Marchetti, Treasurer, and Mr. Walter Kretz as faculty adviser. However, being good, sensible students they turned to solving the impossible geometric theorems and the Mystery tune on “Stop the Music.” Julius Caesar and the Rise and I all of the Holy Roman Empire interested the Latin fans, each one adopted, “I came, I saw, I conquered,” as a motto. Other Sophs enjoyed delving into the puzzles of Biology and writing Mr. KogePs 500-word compositions. When the first touch of spring began to take effect their thoughts turned to the normal diversion, a spring picnic. Although at the time of this writing it hasn’t taken place, the picnic promises to be the best thing in years. Now as the end of a wonderful year draws near, the Sophomore Class is eagerly awaiting the title of upperclassmen. 46 OFFICERS Seated—Mr. Kretz. Sanding —Marchctti, Mangieri, Ces-tra, Epstein.

After days of anticipation, the fresh-JL man walked in the front door on Wednesday, September 8th, most of them nervous, but all eagerly looking forward to high school life. They were greatly surprised and relieved to tind no sophomores and upperclassmen waiting to play tricks on them. Instead, they were greeted by Mr. Cecil MaHood, the principal, Mr. Arthur Jones, director of the school band and orchestra, and both Mrs. Emma Horn and Mr. Lyman Davison of the Guidance Department who spoke to the freshmen and acquainted them with school activities at Lawrence. During the first week of school, one often heard cries of “Hurry, we’ll be late!” “Oh, I can’t find the gym!” and “It’s wonderful!” But the freshmen soon settled down long enough to elect as Class Officers: James Penny, President; Roy Meserole, Vice-President; Barbara Natalie, Secretary: Daniel Semel, Treasurer, and Mr. Donald Clark, faculty adviser. Aside from their regular school activities, most of the “frosh” participated in after-school sports. Other freshmen joined the band and chorus to develop their talents (?), while still others pursued their interests working on the Lawrencian and the Mental Pabulum. So, even though this year’s freshmen are said to be smaller in stature than those of previous years, they promise to do big things at Lawrence in the years to come . 48 OFFICERS Seated- Mr. Clark.

THE 1949 n r -i HE LAWRENCIAN is a vital part of school life, remaining as a permanent record and also bringing out journalistic skills in the students. A great deal of work must be put into a yearbook such as the one you are now reading and many “check, etc., are the order of the day when the staff is working on the yearbook. Under the capable leadership of Gloria Lieberman as editor-in-chief, the 1949 Lawrencian enters the long list of published yearbooks at Lawrence. Comprising the literary staff of the Lawrencian were many fine students who worked hard to make this book a success. Marilyn Knobel and Paul Levenson spent long hours on the “Senior Section,” affixing a quotation to each senior and trying to give every write-up a personal touch. Sports Editors Jerry Solomon Scaled—Linsky, Mrs. Hicks. Dobson, Finkelstein. Standing—Silverman, Levenson, Rosenberg, Landau, Knoble, Solomon, Sakolsky, Levinson. and Marilyn Levinson had the task of writing articles about the many inter-scholastic and intramural sports played at Lawrence. alerie Silverman and Stanley Landau undertook the job of compiling a whole year’s activity at school, which comprises School Life. Alan Mentzer and Miriam Marks took over the Club Section with zest for writing. The Business Staff of the Lawrencian was ably headed by Muriel Dobson as Business Manager. The students have complete charge of the money and really make it stretch a mile. Elise Linsky was Advertising Manager and worked diligently collecting and assembling this vital section of the Lawrencian. The big job of selling the yearbook went to Louise Finkelstein. As Circulation Manager, she did so well that our order had to be increased to meet the demand. Climaxing three years as Photography Editor of the Lawrencian, Robert Gassman really outdid Mrs. Hazel C. flicks.

One other person who did not hold a “key position,” but helped to make this book a success is Marilyn Rosenberg. Overseeing the vast job of publishing the 1949 Lawrencian was Mrs. Hazel C.

Mari. 53 HONOR S O C I E T Y THK Honor Society, comprised of students possessing leadership, scholarship, service and character as specified in its national charter, is probably the foremost among Lawrencian activities. Members of this society are to be found in all phases of school life at Lawrence. 'This year the Honor Society undertook the task of photographing all new Law-rencians for the school records, an activity which they have handled for several years. Early in the year the society undertook a campaign for good manners in school. It was initiated and carried on to make better citizens out of all Law-rencians. A candidate for the society must have attained an average of at least 85%. Besides being scholastically adept, he must possess acumen and leadership in other fields as well, lie must possess a sense of keen responsibility, fair play, manners, and mental alertness that no books can teach. Society members are proof that an agile student can be as proficient in his extra-curricular work and community affairs as he is in the classroom. First row—DeSibio, Levinson, Iannicelli.

On June Night, as is the custom, new members, chosen for their merit in Lawrencian activities, are inducted into the ranks of the Honor Society at an impressive ceremony. It is the ambition of every industrious student in Lawrence to some day make the grade and be sejected for this great honor. Two worthy aims of the Honor Society as stated in its charter are “to maintain a high ambition for the enduring values of life, and to bear forth the searching light of truth.” Much credit is due to Miss Mabel Leavitt, for her untiring aid. inspiring leadership. and unfaltering effort have been factors that have played a large part in the society’s success. President Max Weisler, Vice-President Nancy Greenberg, Secretary Adelaide Cohn and Treasurer Howard Rosenbaum have made the 1948-49 season indeed an active and successful one. 54 MARSHALS THE Marshals are a group of students chosen because of their leadership, character and merit in school life, to render service to Lawrence High School. From the first day of the school year to the last the Marshals will be found ready and willing to serve. Perhaps their most important job lies in acquainting each year’s crop of freshmen with L. H. S. I hey capably aid the faculty in showing the newcomers to their classrooms and answering any questions that they may have as to procedure and school rules. They give the newcomers a bit of friendly advice on the intricacies of high school life. I his serves to encourage the Freshmen so that they will not feel so strange in this great new endeavor. The Marshals also aid the new students in their adventure by assisting them in the manipulations of their lockers. 1 he Marshals have been of invaluable service on visiting days by helping the parents to find their children's classes. They have been of tremendous help in ushering at school events and aiding with social gatherings held in the school.

Hy performing these deeds the Marshals have exhibited a keen spirited interest in the affairs of the high school and the welfare of their fellow students. Mrs. Emma B. Horn s cooperation, excellent supervision, and guidance have played an important role in the functions of the cluh. Valerie Silverman, head girl Marshal, and Steve Holland, head boy Marshal, have most capably managed the numerous details of the organization’s operation throughout the year. This club, comprised of future world leaders, provides an opportunity for students to participate in the management and supervision of their school. The Marshals truly are deserving of the credit that they have gained by service to Lawrence High School throughout the year. 55 First row—Greenhouse, Rosenbaum, Berman, Stroly, Greenberg, Mrs. Denton, Price, Herman, Walker, Cohn, Apropo, Glaser, liecond row—Manekcr, Roscn-bluth, Feldman, Grenblatt.

Throughout this time there has been a gradual increase in its coverage and size. In the first year of its existence, Lawren-cinians bought a three-column, four-page, twelve-by-sixteen-inch paper for five cents. An editorial, a short story, and a feature or two, and something with a sports slant were all the allotted space allowed. The 1948-49 issues would probably seem unrecognizable to to the first editor, for today the problems of the editors include such things as, “How many sports stories shall we print in this issue?” “Is there room on the front page for twelve stories?” and “Do you think there’s room for seventy-five inches of advertising?” During the past few years, the staff has put out on special occasions a six-page issue, which sold for a dime due to the increased cost of production. Eight pages comprised this year’s “Pab,” and there was a brand new masthead along with special heads for the regular features. A new advertising policy has been car- M E N T A L ried out, which provided for larger advertising layouts than heretofore. Local merchants have sponsored a full page safety advertisement which was carried on the last page. Headed by Kditor-in-Chief Nancy Greenberg, and Faculty Advisor Mrs. Madeline F. Denton, this year’s staff included Naomi Price, associate editor; Henry Stroly, advertising editor; Howard Rosenbaum, circulation manager; Ira Berman, bovs’ sports editor; Marion alker. girls’ sports editor; Stephanie Herman, exchange editor, and Adelaide Cohen, alumni editor. The staff put in many long hours making up and getting the paper ready for the presses. First the copy must all be sent to the printer by a specified date. Then, within a few days, it is returned to the staff in the form of galleys, which are long, thin strips of paper with two or three stories printed on each. It is then that the staff goes to work in earnest. Every word must be carefully checked for typographical errors and names receive special attention. After additions and deletions are made, the make-up is begun. This is accomplished by 56 arranging the stories in such a way as to make the pages most attractive and to utilize all available material. Page proofs are sent to the printer and are returned in the form known to the school as the MENTAL PABULUM. Since the entire staff is seated in the same homeroom, it is possible to hold conferences almost every afternoon to determine features, editorials and staff activties. The reporters attend all sorts of meetings, both locally and in New York City. Valuable journalistic experience was gained by members of the staff at the offices of the Nassau Daily Review-Star in Rockville Center. Two excursions were made there, with each visit resulting in the publication of a Lawrence “Teen-Age” page. These students attended the banquet given by the Review-Star in the spring for the “Teen-Age” reporters of the current year. Many interesting columns have been incorporated into the Mental Pabulum, here are a few. “Above PABULUM the Crowd” has long been a most popular feature at Lawrence, and deservedly so. The students who have attained this honor are admired and looked up to by the student body. The column is devoted exclusively to those seniors who, in the opinion of the faculty and the staff of the Mental Pabulum, have contributed the most towards making Lawrence a better school. Good marks are important, but not the sole determining factor. Such qualities as school spirit, athletic ability, musical talent, and leadership must also be in evidence before a decision can be made. The Exchange column has become a regular feature of the paper. Copies of over twenty different papers are received by the exchange editor, who reads all of them for news of other schools’ activities and special events. Humorous items are also put aside for future publication in the “Pab.” Alumni news has always been important in the Mental Pabulum, and is written up in a special column. News of alumni at college is printed along with announcements of engagements, weddings and the arrival of children to cx-Lawreneians. With each year, the “Pab” has become bigger and better. 1949 brought it to a new high in reporting the news and presenting it in an interesting way to the Students of Lawrence High School. First row—Apropo, Trice, Mrs. Denton, Greenberg, Walker. Second row—Davis, Rosenbluth, Glaser, Grecnblatt, Rosenbaum, Strolly, Colin, Wolf, Hahn, Herman. 57 THE Buskins, Lawrence's dramatic society, has for years been its most colorful and, indeed, one of its most active clubs. It gives Lawrencians a chance to display their talents in productions that bring to L. H. S. a touch of Broadway. The 18th Annual Buskin Tournament this year boasted a display of talent that brought out the excellent work of the club in developing Lawrencians into the ranks of experienced actors. The program consisted of four features. Commencing the presentation was a most amusing “Prologue and Confusion,” which portrayed a most entertaining satire on life backstage at a theater. “The Pot Boiler,” the club’s comedy presentation, went over with tremendous success. The third presentation was Edna St. Vincent Millay’s “Aria Da Capo,” a masterpiece that the Buskins most ably presented. Concluding the program was “When Shakespeare’s Ladies Meet.” It portrayed what would happen if many of Shakes- peare’s lady characters would step out of plays and come together in the Garden of Juliet. The names of Sue Sondheim and Sherry Press were engraved on the Buskin Cup, an honor given to those who excelled in the tournament. .Sue for her most entertaining and splendid portrayal of Mrs. Pencil in “The Pot Boiler” and Sherry for her most dramatic reproduction of “Ophelia,” in “When Shakespeare’s Indies Meet,” well deserved this distinction. This year the Buskins undertook the job of sending CARE packages to the less fortunate overseas. Every year the Buskins engage in some such charitable activity. Applicants for this club must tryout before a group of veteran Buskins serving as judges. The inspiring force behind the Buskins has always been Miss Grace W. Ellsworth. Miss Ellsworth, herself a graduate of the theater, has given unselfishly of her time and effort to the Buskins and the direction of their performances. Her intimate acquaintance with the theater is reflected in her productions. President Carole Freedman, Vice-Presidents Marcia Sakolsky and Valerie Silverman, Secretary Louise Finkelstein, Treasurer Sue Sondheim and Historians Sherry Press and Judy Shapiro led the club through a successful season.

Under the capable guidance of Mr. Arthur Jones, the band completed another of its traditionally successful seasons. Dressed in their “New Look ’ the band blazed forth in all its glory at football games, assemblies, parades, and at the Mineola I'air. The musicians showed their versatility by their repertoire of classical and semi-classical numbers. These were presented at the annual spring concert and at an assembly program. The band officers were: President, Francis Rizzo; Vice-President, Frank Pezzimenti; Secretary, Pauline Bevilackua, and Treasurer, Jesse Mistero.

The opening concert in November, a concert at the Valley Stream High School, the annual Christmas program, and a Community sing comprised the activities for the first half of the school year. FRESHMAN CHORUS THE Freshmen of I awrencc High School are excluded from almost every activity except the Freshman Chorus. Here the ninth graders get a chance to prove their strength in song. Under the expert direction of Miss Dorothy Garver, the Freshmen had a grand time singing many famous songs. Among those which were most frequently heard were “Stout-Hearted Men,” “To the Victor,” “Music Everywhere,” “Song from the Pirates of Penzance,” and “Buy My Tortillas.” Some of the boys were so good that they appeared in the operetta, “The New Moon,” put on by the Mixed Chorus.

ORCHESTRA T TIGHLIGIITIXG a season of work con-cent rated on mastering selections of Bach, Mozart, Gluck and Brahms, the Lawrence High School Orchestra presented five programs in the school and the community. Selected members competed successfully in the New York State Competition Festival. In his endeavor to retain a high level of performance in serious music, Mr. Jones was ably assisted by Joseph Marcantonio, President; Mary Ullman, Vice-President, and Joan Rei-per, Secretary-Treasurer.

In case you didn’t know, this was probably Lawrence's up-and-coming Sophomore Chorus. During the year, the chorus gave several wonderful and promising performances. Some of the songs they sang were “The Lord’s Prayer,” “The Vesper Hymn” and for the first time in the existence of the chorus they did the operetta, “Chimes in Normandy.” Owing to the wonderful leadership of Miss Dorothy Garver, the chorus had a very successful year.

Composed of second and third-year French students, this club’s aim has been to increase its members’ knowledge CLUB of the French language, life and customs. The club has also been very active in helping needy French families abroad. Meetings were conducted completely in French and were held on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. Members were entertained throughout the year by special programs, consisting of French songs and amusing quizzes and skits. 63 MATH CLUB First rote—Cohen, Trussel, Press, Shane, Kokol, Horwitz, Glantz, Cohen, Alexander, Stang, Stern, Toplitz, Glassherg.

C O R K E R E T T E S MANY people probable have wondered why the “Corker-cttes” were so named. The name was a derivative of the President's nickname—Corinne (Corky) Can-dreva. Corky was ably assisted during the year by Margaret Bing, Secretary ; Josephine Fabrizo, Treasurer; Arlene Granitski, Librarian. The purpose of this organization was for the members to learn to know each other better. Miss Ar-rand, the advisor, succeeded in bringing these classmates closer together. J. H. A. THE Junior Homemakers of America was a group primarily interested in sewing. The members of this group learned to make gifts and various other useful things. The object of this organization was to teach the members how to be thrifty by making things at home. The officers are as follows: Thoma-zine Jones, President; Rose Mazza, Vice-President, and Joan Heidrech, Treasurer. F. H. A. THE Future Homemakers of America was a club started for the purpose of teaching its members how to choose the best things for good living. The club also endeavored to learn how to manage a home. On several occasions the group took field trips to department stores in order to visit the furniture shops. The officers for the year were: President, Rita San-sone; Vice-President, Mary Ann Franzese; Secretary, Minnie Lee King, and Treasurer, Ruth Hendrickson. f irst roiv—Pcscatore, DcCicco, Bing, Fabrizio, Can-dreva, Granitski, Y’acchio, Ferraro.

When the club was started, it was decided that the meetings were to be held once a month, dues collected, and future problems discussed. Officers were elected as follows: President, Andrea Romero; Vice-President Dorothy Gel-tre; Secretary, Kathryn Winkler; Treasurer, Irene Poulin, and Reporter Betty Clausin. K. E. C. stands for knitting, embroidering and crocheting. T. A. G.’s THE T. a. G. Club of Lawrence High School consists of twenty girls and is under the supervision of Mrs. Elmetta DeMott. The officers are: Glenice Mason, President; Marie DeMilio, Vice-President; Natalie Rizzo, Treasurer, and Joan Wesh, Secretary. During the first few months the meetings, for the most part, consisted of talks on good grooming by Mrs. DeMott. During the second semester the club concentrated on embroidery and knitting. MODERN MISS THE Modern Miss Club has met on the first Friday of each month. The girls knit, sew, crochet, work on samplers and make garments for themselves. The capable officers are Bettyanne Dodge, President ; Janet Rathgaber, Vice-President; Edih Oliveri, Secretary; Doris Craft, Treasurer; Joan De Mayo, Reporter, and Mrs. DeMott, advisor.

Hi-Y has six chapters in Lawrence High School, making a total membership of over one hundred boys and girls of every race, creed and color. With the word service in mind, they gave holiday baskets to the poor, donations to the Community Chest and World Youth Fund, gave scholarships to one boy and one girl, painted Christmas toys for the poor, made lapel pins for the veterans, and offered their services in every way possible. In order to perform these services money was needed, and many a sleepless night was spent before these funds were raised. Candy, name cards, Christmas cards and personalized stationery were sold. Parties were given, such as the Halloween Party given by Theta Omega, which viewed a typical heavy turnout, costumes and all. Movies were shown to the grade school. January 28, 1949, three girls’ chapters, Epsilon, Gamma and Theta Omega gave a “Winter Carnival” in the gymnasium which was enjoyed by all and was a great success. 70 • }} Firj row—Dactcli, Horwitz, Sinsky, Glaser, Freedman, Finkelstein, Hahn, Joseph, Travis.

A bus load of eager Hi-Yer’s go to a crude camping site and make their own happy playgrounds. These trips are always headed by Mr. Charles Kolfe and Mr. Roy Pollach, our Five Towns Y. M. C. A. secretaries. Now let’s get back to the serious part of Hi-Y. Every year Hi-Y takes over the New York State Legislature. Each chapter sends a delegate and a bill up to Albany. Fifty of the best bills are chosen to go before the Legislature, twenty-five to the Senate, and twenty-five to the Assembly. The bills that are passed by the Senate and Assembly go before the regular legislature. Some Hi-Y bills have become New York State laws. Out of six delegates chosen from Nassau and Suffolk Counties to attend the Fifth National Hi-Y Congress; two were chosen from Epsilon. The Congress was held on the Miami University campus, Oxford, Ohio, for the purpose of making forms for clubs. As the Hi-Y assumes headquarters in a new home, they are able to look back over a year of utmost success and accomplishment in making Lawrence High School and our community proud of its spirited youth.

LAWRKNCB: HIGH SCHOOL opened its 1948 season on the gridiron against the Red Devils of Freeport. Driving hard and fast from the outstart of the game, Lawrence carried the ball deep into Freeport territory, and in the last minutes of the first quarter Bobby Jones went over for the first I-awrence touchdown of the 1948 season. In the second quarter Jones scored again, only to have the touchdown nullified by a clipping penalty. Freeport immediately drove back and scored, making the score 7-6 in their favor. Freeport carried the ball on to pay dirt again in the fourth quarter, thus hanging on I-awrence their first defeat. Before a packed house of 6.000 people, the Golden Tornadoes of Lawrence defeated Far Rockaway High School for the fourteenth consecutive time. Capitalizing on a Far Rockaway fumble recovered by Jay Solomon early in the game, Bobby Jones again went over for the first touchdown. George Tavalaro plunged over for the extra point. In the third quarter another fumble was recovered by Lawrence, and after a series of plays, Frank De Ganci took the ball on to pay dirt. The final Lawrence touchdown of the game was scored by George Tavalaro. Lawrence traveled to Mineola to play their next game; here the Lawrence eleven played their best defensive game of the season. Time and again Mineola drove down to Lawrence’s goal line only to be halted by a hard-fighting Tornado line. For three-quarters it was a scoreless tie, but in the final quarter Mineola had moved the ball down to the Lawrence twelve-yard line. Mineola now scored the only touchdown of the game and succeeded in gaining the extra point. 1-awrence could do nothing against the Mineola line and the game ended; a Mineola victory. Against a stony Glen Cove eleven Lawrence suffered their third defeat of the season. Glen Cove made the first touchdown by means of a twenty-yard pass, and then a run of the same amount. The try for the extra point was good and Glen Cove led 7-0. In the remaining quarters I awrence could not put together any sustained marches, and since Glen Cove scored again, the game ended 13-0 in their favor. 74 SEASON R E V I E W Although Lawrence lost the game, the running of Hank I linden, Bobby Jones and Kmil Sarro plus the line playing of Aldo Perrino, Angelo Daddona and Barry Tenzer was outstanding. The Golden Tornadoes’ next game was against the undefeated Buccaneers from Mep-ham. Trailing 6-0 in the last quarter, Lawrence came to life and put on the strongest attack of the campaign. First Frank DeGanci drove over for the initial Lawrence score. Then Steve Holland scored from the twelve-yard line, and toward the end of the game scored again when he broke off tackle for sixty-one yards, and clinched the game for the Golden Tornadoes. The tine passing of Truman Hoffman was an important part in the Lawrence victory, as he completed ten of the fifteen passes to break up the Mepham defense. Riding high after their defeat of Mepham, Lawrence played host to Central High School, and won their third game of the year by the narrow margin of one point. Lawrence scored in the second quarter on a pass from Truman Hoffman to Bob DeLeo, who made a fine running catch in the end zone. Aldo Perrino’s kick for that all-important point was good. In the fourth quarter Central intercepted a Lawrence pass and ran the ball back forty yards for a touchdown. Their kick for the extra point was no good so Lawrence won, 7-6. Lawrence’s next opponent was Flushing High School. Playing under adverse weather conditions, the Golden Tornadoes won their fourth straight game, 12-6. Truman Hoffman was the first to score for Lawrence but Flushing came back to tie the score. Steve Holland’s touchdown run through center clinched the game for Lawrence. The fine playing of Lawrence’s two ends, Lou Speziale and Bob De-Leo, along with the whole Lawrence line of Bob Schmidt, Joe Blaunt, Angelo Daddona, Jay Solomon and Aldo Perrino were a very important factor in winning the game. On an extremely sloppy field, Lawrence met the Golden Cyclones of Watertown High School. The team traveled 300 miles for this, the last game of the season. On the first play atertown intercepted a Lawrence pass and carried it to the fourteen-yard line. On two sets of downs the upstaters cracked over and passed for the extra point. With the mud slowing both teams down, Lawrence came back in the second quarter with Emil Sarro carrying the brunt of the attack and scored on an end run by Bobby Jones. The kick for the extra point was low so the score stood 7-6. The Tornadoes fought furiously, piling up a large statistical edge, but the elements and the hard-fighting Watertown team kept the score the same. Thus, Lawrence closed their season with a 4 and 4 record. Not enough credit can be given to the coaches for their fine spirit and expert help. Head Coach Nelson Hoffman and his assistants, F'rank King, Ted Ciamillo, Joe Page and Walter Kretz will always be remembered by “the gang.” Reach for it . . . 11 old that ball . . .

Most of the faces were new, last year’s championship team was gone, and with it such great players as Ray DeSibio, Ben Sidoli, Neil Hamilton, Ben Ardito, Don Cooper and Lou Mussachio. Coach Nathanson, not being one to mourn antiquarian losses, without any hesitation began to form the nucleus of a group of hoopsters who once again would bring victory into the gymnasium. On December first Lawrence put a starting team of Bob Penny, Bob Dembar, Bob DeLeo, Max Weisler and Jay Boyle on the floor to face a rugged team from St. Paul. The game was not impressively well-played, but it showed that the “Golden Tornadoes” were an aggressive group of ball players. When the final buzzer had sounded, the scoreboard showed that Lawrence had overcome their opponents. Two nights later our staunch rivals, Woodmere, came into our gym. These Wood-mere-Lawrenee games, if not well-played, are always filled with a great amount of spirit, and this one was no exception. Although the game was entirely dominated by Lawrence, it did not disappoint the large group of spectators who came to view it. l awrence won the contest by over twenty points and Bob Penny, the team’s captain, led the scoring with fifteen. Riding in the clouds on the basis of their previous two victories, the “Golden Tornadoes” went into the ill-fated gymnasium at Long Beach. The boys from that township were in the front from the beginning. The bus ride home was much quieter than after the previous competitions. On the next two consecutive Friday nights, Lawrence won exciting games over Hempstead and Mcpham. Both games were hard-fought and close until their completion. Bill Brightman, the promising young sophomore, played well in both engagements, and scored fourteen points against Mepham. Lawrence extended their winning streak to three games when the)- defeated a visiting team from Youngstown, Ohio, over the Christmas vacation. Beaten before by the quintet from Long Beach, Lawrence once again met them, this time on our own court. The outcome was the same. Lawrence, on the ropes most of the time, lost again. On January' 11th our boys played host to a team from 76 Central High. The game was played during the afternoon. To the surprise of almost all in attendance, Lawrence again was forced to accept defeat. Bob DeLeo collected fourteen points which was the most for any one man during the game. The next game Lawrence played was against a then currently hot Baldwin team in our own gymnasium. Baldwin had been ahead the entire game until Lawrence tied in the waning moments. In the overtime period Lawrence again was defeated for the third time in succession. Jay Bovlc and Bob Penny led the losers in scoring. Exactly one week later, on a Friday night, an undefeated and heavily favored Freeport team came to visit the downcast team at Lawrence. This game proved to be the biggest upset of the year. “The Fighting Five,” led by Bob DeLeo, played a sensational game and beat the previously undefeated Red Devils. After a short vacation for examinations, Lawrence SEASON went on the road. Bad luck went with them, for they dropped three games to Sewanhaka, Woodmere and Hempstead in that order. On the 11th of February Lawrence met Mepham and ended its losing streak. The game with Mepham was a facsimile of the first contest between these two teams. Lawrence had two boys in the double figures that night. Bob Penny made thirteen points and Jay Boyle eleven. Seven days later our quintet went to Central, only to be defeated by a team which had conquered them before. Three boys from the J. V. squad were brought up for that game. They were Lew Lesser, Art Feldman and Alex Cestra. During the next week we played our second game with Baldwin. This game was very appealing to the crowd because of the fact that it was very close. The contest was lost, but it did give some much needed experience to the new boys. Of these three, Lew Lesser led with seven points. The league-leading Freeport team got revenge for their first defeat at our hands. The game was close until the second half when they pulled ’way in front. Everyone on the squad got into the game. Bill Dodd scored twenty-one points for Freeport and proved to be the outstanding player of the night. With one game remaining, a Lawrence team, which showed greatness at times, had a record of seven won and eleven lost, but next year’s team will make up for our losses this year. Many of the boys will be back to bring yells of victory instead of defeat into the gymnasium. Too many hands. A tense second in the Woodmere-Lawrence game. 77 First row—Grossman, Flato, Lehman, Feldman, Mr. Kogol, Davis, Casher, Kass, Brambir. Second row—Kahn, Gumps, Cestra, Drazan, Lesser, Schwat, Landsman, Ferrel, Philips, Esposito. J. V. BASKETBALL THE 1948-1949 edition of the Lawrence Junior Varsity Basketball team was a well-blended mixture of Juniors and Sophomores, which produced a winning team and even more important, future varsity material. I nder the capable guidance of Coach W illiam Kogel, the J. V.’s had a season record of eight victories and six defeats. Among their lost games was a three-point victory to Central in an overtime period, and a game which went to Free-port because of a basket in the final seconds of play. Other Tornado defeats were at the hands of Sewanhaka and Mepham. The Law-rencians had victories over Long Beach, Woodmere, Baldwin and Hempstead. The team was led by the two high scorers of the season, Arty Feldman and Lew Lesser. Lesser was valuable as a pivot man while Feldman was the aggressive type of player. Alex Cestra helped immensely with his capable set shot and able ball handling. Adding to the success of the team were the veteran junior ball players. Dick Casher was a valuable center and was always playing a spirited game. Bill Kass was a fine team player and showed plenty of hustle. Marty Schwatt and George Davis both showed promise for the future. Other boys who aided in J. V. victories were Ed Laurel, Gil Gumbs, Bill Landsman, Joe Reisert and Bob Phillips. They will be next year’s Varsity team and will make a great success of it. Better luck next time. IVill it?

T RACK PROFITING by their previous mistakes, this year’s squad looked forward to a highly successful season. With many of the boys participating from last year’s team, the track team shaped up to be a well-rounded squad. The team was coached by Frank Whitman and Francis King. Mr. Whitman handled the dashes, relays, high jump and pole vault events, while Mr. King coached the distant runners and the shot putters. In their first meet, against Woodmere, Law-rence put on a fine showing winning 50 to 39. The Golden Tornadoes took first place in almost every event. In the track events, the 100 yard dash was won by Lenny Hazel, the 220 by Mel Altman, the 440 by Jay Quinn, the 880 by Bob Phillips, and the mile by Tom Gribbon. In the field events Bob Schmidt won the shot put and there was a triple tie among I-awrence for first in the high jump. The track schedule for the year presented formidable opponents for Lawrence. On April 27, Freeport and Central played host to Lawrence. On the 29th of the same month, they engaged Southside, Oceanside, and Chamin-ade. Lawrence opposed Lynbrook on the fourth of May and two days later the Golden Torna- does participated in their first night meet at Long Beach. On the tenth they met Freeport and Woodmere and the following week Sewa-nahaka and Chaminade. With this schedule of events before them, we can safely predict a very eventful season.

BASEBALL JUST about the time the last basketball drops through the net, a young man’s fancy usually turns to thoughts of love. In the ease of a certain group of Lawrencians the old maxim held true. This eager group, at that time, turned to the outdoors for their first love, baseball. A great many of the faces were familiar to Lawrence baseball fans. Only four boys were gone from last year’s outstanding squad, but among those missing was the great battery of DeSibio and Cotela. Coach Andrews realized that the few losses sustained were vital ones. The problem was to find some good young players from the J. V. squad to replace these losses. In the middle of March misfortune struck. Angelo Daddona, last year’s second string catcher, broke his ankle. He was to be this year’s first string receiver. For a time, no solution was in sight, but as the cold month of March passed, certain new boys began to catch the eye of Coach Andrews. “Wheaties” Pearsall was proving his skill around the keystone sack. Both Pearsall and Bennie Stamile, a catcher from last year’s J. V. squad, looked as though they had been playing varsity baseball for more than a year. Returning third sacker DeLeo, shortstop Ber- man, and first baseman Rudloff teamed up with the two new boys, Pearsall and Stamile, in order to form a starting infield. Bob Jones was converted into an outfielder and with the addition of the veterans, Capone and Englehard, a crackerjack group of fly chasers was formed, llurlers such as Dembar and Simms are expected to give a fine performance. These boys, plus some reserves, are the backbone of this year’s squad. Mr. Andrews expects great things from the team, and we know he will not be disappointed. 80 TENNIS THE Lawrence High School tennis team under Coach Frank Cameron won the Long Island Sectional Championship last year at Hempstead Lake State Park. From last year’s team there remained only two of the outstanding players, Henry Hinden and Martin Schacter. Using these boys as the muscles of his team, Coach Cameron held a round robin tournament to weed out some of the players from the large number of boys who turned out for the team and to get a better knowledge of the capabilities of each of these candidates. After weeks of practice in the gym and at our own tennis courts, the team began to take shape. Bent on improving upon the second place standing they received last year in the South Shore league, Coach Cameron used Henry Hinden as his first singles man, Martin Schacter and John Willet second and third singles men respectively. On the doubles teams he had William Kass and Harvey Schneider as the first doubles team and used numerous combinations on the second team based primarilv upon Arthur Feldman, Wally Lehmen, Steve Weinreb, and Bob Friedman. GOLF AS spring rolled around and the snow disappeared from the ground the golf team once again began practicing for the forth-coming season. I hrough the years, the golf team has piled up the most impressive record of any sport carried on at I-awrence. For the past fourteen consecutive seasons they have won the South Shore Athletic League Championship and many a time have also won the New York State title. This year the team used the Lawrence Village Park course, instead of the Woodmere links, as their home course. As we go to press, the results of the season have not been compiled, but the team again expects to win the South Shore Championship and maybe go on to greater heights. Under the expert guidance of Mr. Cavanaugh, the golfers played fourteen triangular matches at some of the best Golf Clubs on Long Island. George Tavalaro, Joe Ennis, and John lacovetti, the three boys back from last year’s team, put on a good showing and a large number of candidates turned out to compete for the two remaining positions. We hope this season turns out as well as the previous ones. 81 VARSITY SOFTBALL T AWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL this year I ■ participated in the first South Shore softball league. Mr. Page led the team to a second place spot last year and hopes this year to reach the top. The team was picked as an All-Star group from among the players of the Intramural league. There were 15 regular league games scheduled this year. The first played was against Hempstead. First row—Tenzer, Solomon, Bernstein.

TROPHIES THROUGH the years Lawrence High School’s athletic teams have won many championships in every major and minor sport in which they have participated. For each championship they won they were rewarded with a trophy. These trophies, symbolic of many great Lawrencian teams, have been collected and are exhibited in our trophy case which is pictured below. First row—Scholl, Muddiman, Quinn, Iannarone, Gordon.

BOYS’ BOWLING THE Lawrence High School bowling team, coached by Mr. Ed Andrews, underwent a reasonably successful season. Paced by such bowlers as Captain Jay Quinn, A1 Tannarone, Archie Gordon, Lee Muddiman and Bill Capp, they comprised a strong team. In the fourteen-team South Shore Bowling League, the Lawrence keglers won a great percentage of their games and came out among the top four. I N T R A M U R A L BASKETBALL SOMETHING new has been added to L. H. S. this year. It is the Intramural Basketball League formed by Mr. Edward Andrews, assisted by John Malli and George Cameron. The teams were divided into two sections, the Junior and Senior League and the Freshman and Sophomore division. The “Gems” and “Olympics” were the victors. 82 INTRAMURAL FROSH BASKETBALL SOFTBALL rpHE Intramural Softball league usually JL held in the fall, started this spring under the able direction of Mr. Page and Mr. Kretz. This sport tops any major or intramural in participants with about 200 boys entering. The games were held at the Cedarhurst Stadium three times a week, and a very successful and THE Freshman basketball team, coached by Mr. Simmonds, ended an extremely successful season with a record of nine victories in the eleven games played. The frosh team piled up wins over Mepham, Oceanside, Lyn-brook, South Side, Valley Stream, Hempstead, East Rockaway, Baldwin and Sewanhaka. eventful season was experienced by all.

FROSH BASEBALL A LARGE group of prospective Freshman Baseball members held daily practices at XTo. 2 School in In wood to determine the team for the year. Mr. Clark finally chose eighteen boys from the many participants to carry the spirit through its season. The team had a six game schedule and proved to be firm opposition for their rivals. f irst row Lynch, Bergamina. Second row—Lanzi-lotta, Ferrell, Mangerie, Peritio, Gallacc. Third row —Virga, Cestra, Gumbs, Shearer, Mr. Clark. J. V. BASEBALL THE 1949 Junior Varsity baseball squad coached by Mr. Clark was made up of sophomores and juniors who had had little experience except that which they had attained on the Freshman team. Through the years the Hiwrence High Junior Varsity team has produced fine records and this season they carried on the tradition in great style. 83 GYM LEADERS First row—Detnilia, Rcipcr, Mezzanatte. Second row—Mason, Levinson, Mair, Davis, Penny, Reiper, Ryan, Oliveri, Smitli. Third row—Miss McPherson, Maffei, Bailey, Bing, Walker, Lomax, Sturm, Mrs. Barber. WITH the aid of Mrs. Barber and Miss McPherson, the Gym Leaders Club was reorganized this year. Only the most interested girls and those who were cooperative were asked to continue to be members. Officers were duly elected last fall. They were as follows: Joan Rieper, President; Jane Penny, Vice-President: Gloria Davis, Secretary; Yvonne Ryan, Treasurer. In order to obtain a mem- bership in the organization, a candidate must have a pleasant personality, neat appearance, ambition, intelligence, initiative and a sincere interest in gym activities. To be a cadet, a girl must have participated in at least two major and one minor sport after school each year. She must serve a six months probationary period, during which time she must perform all the duties of a leader. These duties include taking care of all apparatus and general assistance in her gym class. At the end of the trial period the cadet must receive a two-thirds vote from both the gym class she is in and the members of the leaders club. She must also have the approval of Mrs. Barber and Miss McPherson. CHEER LEADERS u 7’OU’RE PEP,” cry the cheer leaders at our games. Besides having the all- 1 important pep, our girls are noted for their vim, vigor and vitality! Under the capable guidance of Miss Shirley McPherson, the squad developed some excellent new formations and cheers. Largely due to the efforts of our cheer leaders, Lawrencians showed a great improvement in their response at the games. Cheering at local games isn't the only thing that keeps these girls busy. Last year they were entered in a newspaper contest to pick the queen of the Nassau County Cheer Leaders, and some very enthusiastic girls accompanied the football team to Watertown, N. Y. Marcia Sakolskv, Sue Sondheim, Ginny Cornell, Jo Rose, Doreen Groom and Doris Cas-tell were the girls who made the trip, and were entertained during their visit by Watertown’s Cheer Leaders. During the football season the girls undertook the sale of buttons and banners, which proved that they were good salesmen because it was a great success. Lawrence High School showed its recognition of the Cheer Leaders by presenting to each girl a miniature gold megaphone as a symbol of sendee to the school. First row—Bottiglieri, Abrahams, Brown, Saraceno, Solomon. Second row—Groom, Cohn, Mair, Miss McPherson, Cornell, Sondheim, Romero. Third row—Watts, Rose, Black, Freedman, Sakolsky, Leonard, Zipser. 84 BASKETBALL QUITE a few girls from last year’s squads reported out again this year for basketball. A great number of freshmen also participated eagerly in this sport. Marilyn Levinson, Eleanor Bailey and Jackie Mair were considered the best players this season; they all played on the senior team. Mrs. Muriel Barber has been working very hard with the lower classmen to develop skills and techniques so that they will really enjoy the sport next year. SOFTBALL MISS Shirley McPherson expects a large turnout for softball this season because many of the girls from last year’s honor team are enthusiastically looking forward to the opening of training. The girls that made last year’s team successful will all be back to make this year’s team even better. Marilyn Levinson at second base; Rozzie Bing, pitcher; Eleanor Bailey, catcher; Marion Walker at shortstop; and Gloria Davis, an outfielder, will try to play as well and have as much fun as they had last year. HOCKEY ONLY a small group of energetic lassies appeared for Hockey this year. These girls worked hard under the able guidance of Miss Shirley McPherson. Our two teams succeeded in defeating our closest rival, Wood-mere High School. These same teams did very well against Lynbrook, East Rockaway and at Sportsday, held at Valley Stream High School, our Honor Team tied for second place. Among the outstanding players of the season were: Rozzie Bing, Eleanor Bailey and Marilyn Levinson. First row—Ryan, Walker, Light. Davis, Ring. Second rote—DeMilia, Bailey, Sakolsky, Mair, Rieper, Garafano, Rieper, Smith. Third row— Rocco, Lomax, Ferebee, Mrs. Barber, Levinson, Davis, Penny. First row—Bailey, Bing. Second row—Olivieri, Lupyack, Smith, Mair, Rieper, Taylor. Sturm, Davis. Third rotv—Levinson, Walker, Miss McPherson, Mason, Humphrey. First row—Mattel. Walker, Bing. Second row— DeMilia, Lomax, Mason, Bailey, Rieper, Garafano, Rieper, Levinson. Third row—Rocco, Bull, Miss McPherson, Light, Lupyack. 85 TABLE TENNIS ALL Lawrencians should be very proud of the Girls’ Table Tennis Team. This team has been undefeated in interscholastic competition for the past three years. The four outstanding players who helped compile this record were Helene Marcus, Diana Marcus, Dean Smith and Yvonne Ryan. Practicing for their matches on Tuesday after school and during gym classes, the girls met Mepham, Central, Freeport and Malverne in competition. VOLLEY BALL THIS year volley ball was a very popular sport among the girls at Lawrence. Four freshmen, one sophomore, one junior and two senior teams competed against one another for intramural honors. The class teams also played games with Freeport and Lynbrook High Schools, coming out quite well, and considered this a very successful season. At Sports Day, which was held at Malverne High School, our Honor Team won one out of three contests. With many lower classmen enthusiastically participating in volley ball, we hope to have a more successful Sports Day next year. BOWLIN G BOWLING is rapidly becoming a very popular sport at Lawrence High School. Fal-caro’s Bowling Alley started an extensive bowling plan for students this year, which has awakened a keen interest in the sport. As we go to press the team is planning to play matches with Mepham and East Rockaway High Schools. Helene Marcus, who played on the team last year, is looking forward to another successful season. First row—Nadanyi, Ryan, Smith, Arnel. Second row —H. Marcus, Montgomery, Mrs. Barber, D. Marcus. First row—Davis, Walker. Bing. Bull. Second row— Lomax, Mason, Bailey, Mair, Ricpcr, Light, Ricpcr, Levinson. Third row—Sondheim, Sakolskv, Miss McPherson, Hendrickson, Ferebee. First roiv—Rieper. Mills, Rieper. Second rote—D. Marcus, Mott, Mrs. Barber, Cornell, H. Marcus. 86 ARC HER Y FOUR of the five girls who made up the archcry team last year will return again (his season to participate in the sport. The girls will be able to shoot in their gym classes as well as after school. Last spring the team was unable to display their skills because all their meets were canceled on account of rain. This season Mrs. Muriel Barber is going to join the Camp Archery Association of the United States, which will give the girls with high scores an opportunity to win various medals. B A I) M I N T O N ABOL'T thirty girls went out for badminton last fall. Most of the girls were either beginners or had never played the game before. Mrs. Barber worked hard with the newcomers and hopes to make them good players in the next few years. During the season our girls had matches with Mepham, Southside and Lynbrook. The team hail a wonderful time on Sports Day, which was held at Baldwin High School, but they were the winners in only three of the contests. We are looking forward to singing the praises of next year’s badminton team. T ENNIS OUR girls’ tennis team really made Lawrence proud last season. At Sports Day, which was held at Valley Stream State Park, our girls captured first place. Earlier in the season the team played successfully against Lynbrook, South Side and Mepham High Schools. Mary Ullman, a junior, was our most outstanding player. Some of the other girls on the winning team were: Rolene Haber, Valerie Silverman, Muriel Katz and Joan Rosenberg. First row—Doubchan, Rosenberg. Second row—Mrs. Barber, Hendrickson, Perlman, Henry. First rote—Bing, Smith, Ryan. Second row—Levinson, Mrs. Barber, Bailey. First row—Ullman, Rosenberg. Second rote—Silver-man, Mrs. Barber, Katz. SC HOO I, LIFE Our school day . . . 90 I HE end of the year always means the time for looking back (review time). I This School Life Section is concerned principally with a summary, not one of school subjects, but of the activities in which we have participated. Whenever we organized or joined a club, we became a part of school life; the football games and school dances we attended were written into a chapter of the year’s history, along with the school plays, concerts and assembly programs. All these events have here been recorded for your benefit. We hope that by reviewing these events, we will always be able to recall those little incidents which, summed up, mean “school.” Perhaps we will merely remember a squeaky locker, our first experience with the Guidance Department or the funny way voices of the students in class echo in the empty halls. Whether these memories bring a smile or a frown, we have accomplished our purpose if we have helped you to treasure for just a little while longer these very important moments of your life, your school days at Lawrence High. At 8:30 on the morning of September 8th, 1948, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors re- During classes. Between classes. turned to Lawrence High School, resigned to the thought that their all-too short, ten-week summer vacation had come to an end. They began the morning by re-establishing old friendships and forming new ones, not only with their fellow students, but with members of the faculty as well. After attending short classes, they departed, leaving the empty school for the 350 bewildered Freshmen who arrived at 1 :00 P. M. The “frosh” assembled in the auditorium where they were welcomed by Mr. MaHood, Miss Tefft, Mr. Davison, Mrs. Horn and Mr. Jones, and then turned over to the Marshals. They next were shown about the school, initiated into the mysteries of the locker combinations and assured that there was no fourth floor, swimming pool or elevator. Thus the momentous first day passed. Regular classes began the following day and within a short time extra-curricular activities moved into high gear. Mental Pabulum reporters were busily rounding up news and writing articles for their first issue. The Law-rencian set to work organizing its staff and choosing its theme. The halls resounded with the determined (but sometimes not too harmonious) efforts of the band, orchestra and chorus. The Buskins gathered to plan for their 91 annual tournament. Activities of many clubs moved into full swing. Horn Memorial Stadium echoed with yells and cheers for the football team which was training for the games to come. Band members, cheer leaders and twirlers added color to the scene. 1 bus, it was small wonder that many a worried look was bestowed on the first set of report cards in October. Turning to more serious matters, elections of class officers and advisers were held and plans made to collect dues for future activities. The members of the senior class, in an effort to lessen the amount of their dues, instituted a ten-day drive which found them trudging through the neighborhood selling magazine subscriptions. Elections were not confined to selecting school officers alone. The History students had an opportunity to hold a straw vote for President of the United States, using authentic ballot boxes. Their votes, naturally, did not have a very profound effect on the outcome of the national election. A most unusual and entertaining assembly was held just before the Thanksgiving recess, a presentation being made 92 TALENT SPROUTS by a troupe of four Dutch performers who were on a goodwill tour of the country. Through their respective mediums of folk dancing, singing, comedy and music, they gave the students not only an enjoyable time, but also a graphic picture of some aspects of life in Holland. Following the holiday, the Buskin Tournament was presented. The audience, which braved the snowy December night to attend, was well rewarded by the prologue and three plays they witnessed. Athletic attention was focused on basketball and Lawrence began the season by winning its first two games, one from its traditional rival, Wood-mere High School. As the Christmas season approached, the Mixed Chorus added to the holiday spirit by presenting its annual concert. A particularly enjoyable feature of their performance was the rendition of well-known Christmas carols. On January 3rd, Lawrencians returned to school after two weeks of carefree activity. However, their pleasant memories were dispelled by thoughts of approaching regents examinations, mid-terms and college board exams. Seniors could be seen pouring over long vocabulary lists 93 and could be heard practicing ten-syllable words. In time, examinations were over and once again students spent I riday nights in the gym, cheering the “hoopsters” on to greater efforts. In February, a tape recorder was brought to school and classroom activities were recorded secretly. When the students heard the “playback,” many got quite a surprise! February also brought unusually warm weather which changed abruptly to normal on the eve of Senior Day. Despite an unexpected snowstorm, all agreed that the day was a success. The seniors, after taking over classes for a day, understood some of the teachers’ problems. The day was topped off by a variety show of senior talent and an after-school basketball game between the senior girls and boys. (P. S. The boys won.) Rehearsals for the seventeenth annual senior play soon got under way. After much discussion, it was finally agreed to present “Once and for All.” In keeping with Lawrence tradition, the play was a great success. When spring finally arrived, it needed no formal announcement. Fire drills were the order of the day. Rock Hall became the Lawrence Terrace and lunches were eaten outside. Gym classes were held in the stadium; tennis practice was resumed, and baseball training was begun. The ever-ready students on duty in the bike room had bicycles to guard at last. The annual Spring Concert was presented by the Mixed Chorus. Not to be outdone, the band also staged an excellent musical program. 94 Easter vacation came as a welcome respite to all. Seniors especially caught up on much-needed sleep. However, before the holiday, the Junior Prom was held. The most impressive and solemn event of the year other than graduation was June Night. On that occasion, new members of the Honor Society were inducted and scholarships and awards were presented. The remaining weeks of school were devoted to a determined effort on the part of all of the students to obtain the best marks possible to end the school year. The last and probably the most important social event before graduation was the Senior Prom. Thus ended another year of school, with optimistic thoughts of the next year mingling with memories of the preceding year. Freshmen looked forward to being freed at last from the lowest ranks, and looked back on a harrowing but worthwhile induction into high school. Sophomores, having gone through a subject-infested year, were a bit smug with the thoughts of becoming upperclassmen. The Juniors took a deep breath when the realization dawned that they were to become those hallowed people, Seniors, a position which they had subconsciously coveted during the year. The Seniors permitted themselves the luxury of nostalgic sentiments while reminiscing over their years in high school. But few dared to do little more than take just a peek around the corner to the future. Whatever those events were that made up our years at I.. H. S., they were wonderful, and we’ll never forget them. VOCATIONAI DEPARTMENT T HE students of our present day vocational department have much in common with the forty-niners of old. It was necessary that both groups be courageous, resourceful and persistent. Our voca-t i o n a 1 students have shown that they have the courage to face life squarely and prepare to accept the burdens that adult life imposes upon one. They are learning those skills which this technological age demands. To be able to utilize these skills learned here in school, they must have the patience and ingenuity which best characterize the American people. The forty-niner went into the wilderness and with little more than his bare hands conquered and developed our great western lands. We can confidently expect that the graduates of the Lawrence High School Vocational Department will be just as important in the further development of our country. The vocational program is a full four-year course under the guidance of Mr. George Keller. The first two years, the “exploratory years,” consist of five basic subjects: Machine Shop, Auto Mechanics, Sheet Metal and Welding, Electrical Shop, and the Building Trades Shop. After absorbing this thorough background the students are ready to select their field of specialization. The next two years are spent in mastering the techniques of the specific trade that the student has chosen. Upon graduation the student is fully prepared to take a job in the field in which he majored. A more practical educational system is hard to find. In the Machine Shop the boys become acquainted with the same machines used in an Industrial Machine Shop. They become proficient in the use of lathes, milling machines, shapers, and drill presses. Bench work is also covered in this shop. A ten-thousandth of an inch is a noticeable amount to these students as they employ their micrometers and vernier 96 calipers. The quality of work turned out in this shop is so high that the tools made are used throughout the other shops of the department. I f your dad has trouble with the family sedan, just ask one of the students of the Auto Mechanics Course to take over. He will be able to take the car apart, and with a little hit of thinking he will put it together again. The chances are that when he is through your car will be as good as new. The boys in the Auto Mechanics Course learn all about automobiles from front end to rear end, including the transmission, motor, generator, fuel pump, water pump, brakes, clutch, and all the other features of the modern car. Things are really hot in the Electrical Shop. In this course the students learn how to repair the electrical appliances found in the home. They practice on such items as radios, toasters, irons, electric clocks, and the like. However, that isn’t all. House wiring and electrical systems are taught in a specially constructed booth to simulate the real thing, since experience is a very important factor in electrical work. Metal forming and joining is taught in the Sheet Metal and Welding Shop. The students become proficient in the techniques of welding and riveting. The boys in the building trades courses have inappropriately nicknamed themselves the ‘wood butchers.’ We say inappropriately, for they turn out very fine pieces of woodwork and carpentry. They build scale models of homes from the framework to the finished trim. The lost art of cabinet making is also revived in this department. Although these courses just outlined cover a lot of ground, all our vocational students spend only half of their time in this study. The rest of the school day is required for the study of related academic subjects; these include, English, social studies, history, shop mathematics, and science courses. The students of our Vocational School are not only offered a sound academic foundation with which to face life’s challenge, but they also can become proficient in the skills necessary to earning a living. 97 Left t« riyht—Mrs McGinn, Mrs. Koppe, Mr. Doughty. SCHOOL STAFF THF-RE arc many people in Lawrence upon whom we depend and without whom we couldn’t get along. You might not have had occasion to visit the Superintendent’s Office, but Mrs. Koppe, Mrs. McGinn, and Mrs. Doughty do a great deal to make L. H. S. the fine school that it is. In the Principal’s Office there are three hard-working girls: Maitland Ruhl, Beryle Barbutti, and Dorothy Stone. They answer your questions, give late passes, and do a great deal of work for your benefit. In the Guidance Department Mrs. Ruth Erhardt helps to plan programs and fills out your college applications. The “Mrs. Anthony” to many of the girls in school is none other than Mrs. Lydia Grady. She has given countless advice and sympathy; for she understands people from the heart out. It takes a lot of skill and even more courage to dare attempt to feed several hundred hungry students. This outstanding feat is accomplished every day, under the guidance of Miss Wini- l-'irst rim—Miss Barhuti, Miss Stone. Second rote— Mrs. Erhardt, Miss Ruhl.

John Belcastro, Fred Boddv, John Cihlar, Franklin Hicks, Adolf Lanzillota, Peter Li-curse, John Mollo, Frank Perino, Joseph Smith, and John Zullo. To all these people who have helped to make our school life a little more care-free, a little more comfortable, a little more wonderful, we want to say very simply, “Thank you.” Mrs. Lydia Grady Mrs. Gertrude Deremer and her assistants. 99 S )L ss v w - ” titegl ---- t ( .
