HICKS een-fift y Published by the Students of Lawrence High School Lawrence, New York ore wort The torch in our book is the symbol of learning. The symbol of man’s most vehement yearning. At present, as in the Grecian Age, Esteemed and emulated has been the sage. But scholarship has been replaced by the sword, In many imperious nations abroad. It is for us, the youth of our nation. To bear our torch to the next generation; To keep alive its hallowed flame; To herald it with loud acclaim. Think, while directed through our publication By this radiant torch of education. That each man in his own life’s mission Is guided by his erudition; That the more toward learning a student strives. Greater is the benefit which he derives. For those who shall advance to college Bear with you our torch of knowledge. But, wherever your vocations lie. Remember your schooling at Lawrence High. Now, in concluding this muse, I shall say That we present our Lawrencian this day. And Shakespeare—like, 1 pray you, just to look, Gently' to read, kindly to judge our booh.

Though students are aware of the many demands on his time and energy, perhaps they know him best for his enthusiastic interest in their activities. Whatever the occasion—dramatic, musical, athletic—he is on hand to lend support, advice, and encouragement. We are fortunate to have as Superintendent of Schools an executive who has earned the respect of the adult community for the business-like conduct of his office as well as the friendship of the student body for his warm personal interest in them. Thus we dedicate our book to - Mr. Lawrence V. Dodd Seated—Mr. Eldred, Mr. Shaskun, Chairman of the Board. Mr. Post. Standing—Dr. Vivona, Mr. Reilly. Ihoard op (Education jUR Hoard of Education consists of five prominent men who are elected by their fellow citizens to manage affairs dealing with education in our school district. The members, Mr. Eldred, Mr. Post, Dr. Vivona, Mr. Reilly, and Mr. Shaskan, the Chairman of the Board, devote a great deal of their time and energy so that the mechanism of our educational system functions properly. Although the members of the Hoard are not known personally to most students of Lawrence, these men work behind the scenes to make sure that the taxpayer’s dollar is spent in the best possible way toward educating the youth of our community. We are indeed indebted to these conscientious public servants for their outstanding service and for the fine work which they have accomplished. 8 The Principal’s Message: It has been said that there is no poverty as barren as that of failing; to know oneself. As Seniors you have had opportunity to discover yourselves—your interests and ideas. Vi ith that as a starting point, you can do much to cultivate your own acquaintance in the years to come. You may be pleasantly surprised at what good company you can be. If you succeed at it, you will become eligible for membership in that society of free men, who, rather than being dependent upon others for many of the real satisfactions of life, discover that they are in good company wherever they themselves happen to he. Good Luck to each of you! Cecil H. MaHood Assistant Principal’s Message: Education is continuous throughout life. One of the main objectives of Lawrence High School is to send its students on their varied ways with preparation and training to find their places and use those places to benefit themselves and Society. Both formal and creative education are offered to attain the well-rounded person. The hoy or girl who may have attained a wealth of knowledge in some particular field of learning and yet does not have a healthy respect for his fel-lowman, has failed in a vital part of his education. Likewise, it is important to realize that it is necessary to have a knowledge of the past as a basis for good judgment in accepting or rejecting new situations as they arise. 10 The Guidance Director s Message: To the members of the 1950 Graduating Class: Another goal in life has been reached, and another milestone has been passed. You have my sincere congratulations. More choices, more responsibilities lie ahead. May you have the ability and the courage to choose wisely, to assume your rightful place in your family and in the larger society, the community. It is your rightful place because you have earned it by diligence and hard work. Luck seems at times to have a disproportionately large share in determining a person’s success in life. On closer examination, however, it develops that lucky opportunities come to him who is prepared to seize them. May that happen to each of you. Sincerely, Assistant Guidance Director's Message: Throughout the four years of your high school career at Lawrence the aim or objective of the faculty has been not only to teach you the required subject matter hut also to develop in you the tastes and capabilities which would make for simple harmonious living. IIow well they may have been able to correlate the cultural and the spiritual program with your actual life problems can only be measured by the responsibilities you will undertake, and the services you will render to the communities in which you will make your homes and effectively work out your life’s situations. rywY ou 3.

Here will get a picture of the senior a activities and a glimpse of our lowe classmen. This section is a comprehensive review of class accomplishments throughout the school year. Senior Class THE proud seniors of Lawrence Ilifili School can recollect the time when they were once freshmen. Being no different from the frosh of other years, many of these individuals can remember looking for the elevator, climbing to the roof in order to find the fourth floor, swimming pool, or rushing madly through the halls trying to locate their classrooms. When they became adjusted to the routine of high school and did not wander through the building with a puzzled expression on their faces, they w'ere able to elect William Kass, President; Jesse Combs, Vice-President; Robert Jones, Secretary; and Robert Steinberg, Treasurer. Mr. Clark was chosen as class adviser. The Class of 1950 became thoroughly imbued with school spirit and a large turnout of these freshmen was seen at all of the football and basketball games, rooting for our team. After a very successful freshman year, our heroes and heroines became sophomores. No more were they sent on wild quests nor did they lose their way in the building. Now they could tease the incoming freshman also. When school work started, some of these sophs could be found repeating the Latin words of “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres” when they began the study of Caesar’s expeditions in their Latin courses. Others were trying to master biological terms or geometry' propositions. Amid all this activity the 1950 senior class showed its good discretion by once again electing very' capable class officers. These wrere: Billy Kass, President; Bobby Jones, Vice-President; Betty Alexander, Secretary; and Bobby Mastuantuno, Treasurer. The class adviser was Mr. Jose 1-1-Page. Time really passed quickly for before they knew it, September of 1948 had come and our friends had now arrived at their junior year in their journey through high school. This was a year filled with joy, excitement, and expectation. During that f all, a great deal of consideration was given to the choosing of officers because of the difficult tasks which lay ahead. Robert Jones was elected President; William Kass, Vice-President; Angelo Daddona, Secretary; and Mar- Seuted—Mr. King. Standing—Maneker, Jones, Sarro, Vincent. got Cohen, Treasurer, with Mr. Page as faculty adviser. Senior jew'elry was ordered early and plans were formulated for the Junior Prom. The Prom was one of the most successful in Lawrence High School history because of the hard work done by many of the enthusiastic members of the Junior Class. In their course of studies these juniors contended with logarithms and history charts and in most cases it was the student who came out on top. Finally, after three long years of expectation, the class of 1950 arrived at their destined goal, the year 1950. Now they were the mighty Lawrencian seniors. Once again realizing the need for good officers, they elected Morton Maneker, President; Robert Jones, Vice-President; Julia Vincent, Secretary; and Emil Sarro, Treasurer. These officers did their jobs splendidly and helped to arrange senior day' and the Senior Prom. As the members of the Class of 1950 leave for new and different fields, they will carry with them the wonderful memories of their four years at Lawrence. 18 Honor Speakers VALEDICTORIAN At the top of the senior list stands our valedictorian, Morton Maneker, with the exceptionally high average of 97.61. Morty, besides his scholastic achievements, has taken a very active part in extracurricular activities. He is President of the senior class. Head Bov Marshal, an Honor Societv member. Circulation Manager of the Mental Pabulum and an outstanding member of the Debating Society. Without a doubt, Morty’s fine record is one of the best ever compiled at Lawrence. All of his undertakings both scholastically and otherwise have met with success. We are sure that Morty will continue to be successful in any field which he enters. SALUTATORIAN The salulatorian of the 1950 senior class is Judy Feldman, who is graduating with an outstanding scholastic average of 96.82. Judy has maintained an excellent record all through high school. She is a member of the Honor Society, the Marshals, News Editor of the Mental Pabulum, Co-Chairman of the Debating Society, President of her Hi-Y Club, and a member of the Buskins. Her ready smile and charming personality have won her many friends at Lawrence. Judy is recognized as a fine speaker who has represented Lawrence in many inter-school debates. She is a student of whom Lawrence may be proud. THIRD HONOR SPEAKER Our third honor speaker is William Metzger, who possesses an average of 93.61. Bill is a modest, reserved and highly respected fellow. He is known for his outstanding work in the fields of science and mathematics. Besides his scholastic achievements, Bill is a member of the Honor Society, the Math Club, and the Red Cross Club. He also did an excellent job as the School Life Co-Editor of The Lawrencian. Whenever a problem in solid geometry or physics arose. Bill was always the man who answered it. Because of his knowledge, patience, and understanding, we are certain that he will achieve his aim of becoming a professor of science. 19 RUSSELL ABRAMS Russ Quiet . . . congenial . . .

No, there had not been any revolution, but only the long-awaited Senior Day. This was the one day of the year when the seniors had charge of the school. Members of the senior class became instructors in various subjects while the teachers had a day of relaxation. The faculty agreed that the seniors did a fine job teaching classes for a day. Mr. Mallood relinquished his position as Principal to Morty Maneker and Bobby Jones acted as the Assistant Principal in place of Miss Teflft. Climaxing the 1950 version of Senior Day was tin customary basketball game between the male and female members of the graduating class.

Junior SEPTEMBER ‘49 ushered in a group of eager, enthusiastic juniors, upperclassmen at last. Amidst finding logarithms, learning how a hill becomes a law, and translating Cicero, officers were elected as follows: Peter Bertucci, President; Louis Mangieri, Vice-President; Joan Epstein, Secretary; and Carl Beiles. Treasurer, with Mr. Joseph Page as Faculty Adviser. The ordering and arrival of their senior jewelry brought to life the reality that soon they would become the proud seniors of Lawrence High. Colleges were discussed at the lunch table, and many applications were carefully filled out and mailed. Dues were collected in January, and the date was set for the Junior Prom, which took place in May. Committees wrere organized, and everyone worked hard to make the dance the great success that it was. 44 First row—Bernstein, Studley, Giles, Jones, I.aiming.

This year's sophomores were no different from any others in these thoughts. School work found most sophs memorizing geometry props, writing Mr. KogeFs five hundred work penalty compositions, and studying about Caesar's expeditions. The first official duty of the sophomores was to elect class officers. The results showed Nicholas Daddona to be President; Ralph Mazza, Vice-President; Donald Cardea, Secretary; and Robert Abrams, Treasurer. Mr. Walter Kretz was chosen class adviser. In addition to scholastic work, many sophs entered school activities with enthusiasm. Some participated in athletics and school clubs, while others became members of the sophomore chorus, the band, and the orchestra. Thus throughout the year the class of 1952 demonstrated its eagerness to contribute to the school life of Lawrence. Sophomore First rotv—Carter, Zoolo, Catropa, Silver, Mukumul. Mott.

F reshman ON September 7th, 1949, a bewildered group of nervous and self-conscious freshmen timidly entered the front door of Lawrence High. From here they were directed to the Auditorium where they received opening instructions and guidance from Mr. MaHood, Miss TefTt, Mr. Davison, Miss Horn, and Mr. Jones. After listening to these talks, they emerged from the Auditorium and toured the buildings—no longer a stunned group, but a united class with personality and hopes—the Class of 1953! Joe DeVito was elected President; Gene Panariello, Vice-President; John Teraino, Secretary: and Gary Bellow, Treasurer. Mr. Jones was chosen Faculty Adviser. The Class of 1953 brought to Lawrence High School all of the hopes, ambitions, and promises of each of its members. We are certain that their progress will he sure, steady, and high. The Class of 1953 was horn, a new star in the skies of Lawrence High School. 48 f irst row—Homan, Schneider, Capohianro, Cardones, Studly, Smith, Tarmos, Ormond, Aasen, Williams, Bevilarqiia, Lerner.

A complete coverage of all eh and organizations, which are avidly par ticipated in by students of Lawrence, is found here. Lawrencian THE 1950 Lawrencian is the yearbook of Lawrence High School—a living record of all the school events which occurred during the past year. First published more than twenty years ago, the Lawrencian started as a small, soft-covered pamphlet, and has emerged after many years as the fine, 130-page, hard-covered publication of today. The Lawrencian deals in a great part with the activities of the seniors of Lawrence High, hut it does not overlook the other various aspects of school life. Included in this yearbook are sections pertaining to the intramural and varsity sports, the clubs and activities which are enthusiastically participated in by most Lawrencians, and the school life itself at Lawrence High. For those who have not wrorked on the Lawrencian, it is impossible to imagine the time and labor that was spent by the staff to make their hook a success. Supervising the entire production was David Gerstein, the Editor-in-Chief. Eleanor Kokol was the money-conscious girl on this year's stafT wrho did such a fine job as Business Manager. The Advertising Manager, Martin Scliwat, labored strenuously to secure ads. Marty did so well that he went far beyond his set quota. Be- Seated Sussman, Kokol. Mi . Mirks, Gerstein, Cohen.

Eleanor Shane, the Art Editor, did most of the fine drawings. The Photography Editor, Howard Sussman, snapped many of the excellent photographs found in the 1950 Eawrencian. It was a common sight to see “Chuck” walking through the halls with his camera and electronic flashgun to capture the real spirit of Lawrence in his pictures. The members of the literary staff must he commended for their splendid work in preparing the copy for this yearbook. Roberta Cohen and Jerome Brander undertook the arduous task of giving individual attention to tlie write-up of. each member of the senior class. Barbara Goldstein and Alex Vivona wrote about the different clubs and organizations of Lawrence High, as Club Editors. Giving a complete coverage of the athletic program of our school were Mary Ullman and illiam Kass, the Girls’ and Boys’ Sports Editors, respectively. Judy Shapiro and William Metzger, School Life Editors, accomplished the difficult undertaking of reviewing all of the interesting events which took place luring the year. Not enough praise can he given to Barbara Smith, who typed all the copy that is found in this issue of the Lawrencian. Others whose aid was invaluable are Tommy Berle, the Assistant Photographer, and Jimmy Simmons for his art work. T he staff is grateful to Mrs. Hazel C. Hicks, the faculty adviser of the Lawrencian, for her aid and encouragement. 7%r zy f ys 53 First row—Vincent, Doubchan, Goldstein, Horwitz, katz, Epstein, Pursehouse.

Honor Society ONE of the principal aims of every student at Lawrence is to become a member of the Honor Society. The Lawrence High School Chapter of the National Honor Society is composed of those students who excel in the qualities of leadership, scholarship, service, and character. In order to become a member of this organization, a candidate must possess a scholastic average of at least 85%. Furthermore, he must be a person who takes an active part in the extracurricular activities at school and one whose character is exemplary in the opinion of the members of the faculty. Thus, due to the high qualifications required, a student who is admitted into the Honor Society may feel greatly honored. During the school year, this organization rendered aid in the task of taking and distributing the freshman photographs. Also members acted as hosts and hostesses to guests of the school. On “June Night” the work of the Honor Society came to a thrilling climax. In one of the most beautiful occasions of the year, new candidates were inducted into the society.

The Marshals are students chosen for their leadership, merit, ami courtesy to perform tasks of service to the school. Distinguished by their characteristic hull’ and blue L. H. S. armbands, they are always ready to lend a helping hand. On the opening day of school, the Marshals guided incoming Freshmen. The newcomers were taken on a tour of the building and were shown how to open their lockers. The Marshals also explained the different procedures carried on at Lawrence and assured the frosh that there were no elevators, swimming pools, or fourth floors. On V isitor’s Day the Marshals proved indispensable by directing perplexed parents to their children’s classrooms. During the year, educational conventions and Parent - Teacher Association meetings were held in the school. At these meetings some Marshals acted as guides and ushers in the school building, while others directed traffic in the parking area at the rear of the building. Another important duty assigned to the Marshals is the bicycle room patrol. During the summer vacation, those students who d evesi of r.'f have been selected as Marshals for the coming school year are sent notices of their appointment. Head Marshals Virginia Hollander and Morton Maneker supervise all activities of this organization with their usual capable efficiency. Aided by the guiding hand of Mrs. Emma B. Horn, the Marshals have performed their duties in the true spirit of Lawrence High School. First row Mayes, Dit.irolamo, Goldstein, Ullman. I.erner, Daiteh, Shane, Pursehotise, Vineent.

In 1932, tlie year in which most of our seniors were born, the Mental Pabulum, Lawrence High School’s newspaper was initiated. The words “Mental Pabulum” according to Webster means food for the brain, but to most Lawrencians these words convey the thought of discovering the news of school. In its 18 years of existence, the “Fab” has grown from a small four page newspaper to the large eight page publication we know today. Under the competent leadership of Co-ed i-tors-in-chief Muriel Katz, and Richard DavidofT. and faculty adviser, Mrs. Madeline F. Denton, many fine issues were published during the school year. The other editors of the Mental Pabulum staff included Judy Feldman, News Editor; Steve Weinreb and Bob Benjamin who as Boys’ Sports Editors rendered complete and interesting coverage of Lawrence’s football and basketball games; Julia Rieper who gave accounts of the various girls athletic teams as Girl’s Sports Editor; Seated—Kalz.

During the year, several new columns were added to the “Pab.” These pertained to records, movies, and other items which are of interest to most teen-agers. “Out of the Hat” another new colmn which aroused unprecedented interest in Lawrence High was also begun this year. This column consisted of a story about a Lawrence student who was picked by chance. In each issue of the “Pah” was a coupon. These coupons were filled out by the students ami collected by Mental Pabulum representatives. After all of these had been gathered, they were placed together and the lucky student who would have a write-up was literally picked “Out of the Hat.” The year 1949 marked the advent of a new policy in composing the paper. The first two weeks were set aside for gathering all the material which was to he used in the next issue. Following that, all the written material underwent a close scrutinization bv Muriel, Richard, and Mrs. Denton, who edited and revised some of it. After the articles were typed, they were arranged in such a way that the pages were attractive and that all available space in the paper was utilized. The arranged material for the next issue of the “Pah” was then sent to the publishers for printing. This accomplished the paper was sent hack to Lawrence High School and sold by the circulation staff. During the year, the editors of the paper produced the Teen Page of the Nassau Daily Review' Star and had a wonderful time doing it. 57 First row—Clementelli, Haber, Jacobs, Shapiro, Horwitz, Katzen, Hollander, Gelfman, Feldman.

Buskins EAGER thespians, versatile amateurs, hardy workers, and a patient leader have given Lawrence a varied season of enjoyable entertainment. Amid the election of officers, basketball games, and hopes of snow, the Buskins began rehearsals for their nineteenth annual tournament. Various committees were chosen and enthusiastic members were soon hard at work constructing and painting the scenerv and backdrops. The search for props reached far and wide while “publicity experts” informed the student body of great expectations. On December 9th, three one-act plays were presented to an enthusiastic audience. The first play, “Suppressed Desires” was a comedy based on psychiatry. It related how very exciting married life can be, when a wife becomes obsessed with a desire to have her husband psycho-analyzed. Starring in this performance were Sherry Press, Ronda Seibel and Norman Wax, who really had the audience rolling in the aisles with laughter. “The Informer” constituted the dramatic 58 “ uas you.

New members must pass tryouts before they can be accepted into the Buskins. Those who become members are called apprentices and they are instructed in speech and dramatics. The semi-monthly Buskin meetings are devoted to entertainment provided by the members. Arthur Bernstein, President, presides at these meetings. He is aided by Martin Korn.

Depicting the struggle of the Free Irish movement. It is the story of a bribe which a member of the Irish underground, Gypo Nolan, accepts from British agents for the murder of a fellow countryman. The search for this “Informer” provides the plot for the play. Martin Sehwat played the difficult role of Gypo Nolan ably supported by Ellen Silver, Ann Cullen, Sylvia Birnbaum, Barton Goldman, Martin Korn, Royr Freedman, and Roger Lowenstein. This excellent performance of “The Informer” drew tremendous plaudits from the audience. “The more the merrier” might have been the basis for the third presentation, as nearly every Buskin member appeared in the production. It was a musical comedy entitled, “Shooting Stars.” Live mannequins, majorettes, thieves, and an inevitable romance climaxed the evening’s performance.

Mixed Chorus Orchestra THE Mixed Chorus is an organization of which Lawrence can well he proud. Concerts, music festivals, and assembly programs constituted the agenda for these choraliers. Practicing everyday kept their voices mellow and sweet. They had a varied repertoire ranging from Beethoven’s “Hallelujah,” to Cole Porter’s “Night and Day.” At these rehearsals, plans were formulated which made chorus performances enjoyable and successful. Impromptu get to-gethers provided the basis for the delightful “South Pacific” and Christmas assembly programs. Miss Dorothy A. Garver directs the chorus. f I IHE Orchestra, the Lawrence High School musical organization, performs classical music written by such outstanding composers as Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven.

However, besides playing host to the socially-minded Lawrencians, Hi-Yers were interested participants in more important things. This year, as in previous ones, each club formulated a bill to be taken to the “Little Congress” at Albany. After revision, each bill was taken to Albany by Hi-Y representatives who had the thrilling experience of participating in a model Senate and House of Representatives. Although not completed at the time of this writing, a trip to Bear Mountain has been planned for Easter vacation. THETA OMEGA First row—Kipnis. Fabrizio, Restivo. Levey, Grubman.

Some of the girls have worked at the Child ('are ('enter and others have devoted time to reading to blind people in New A ork. Guiding this very active group of clubs, “Chuck” and “Ray” are assisted by the Hi-Y Cabinet. The Cabinet has engaged many interesting speakers, and has had special movies. It also arranged the wonderful talent shows, which were put on at the “A” house. These shows offered an opportunity for gifted young people of the Five Towns to display their talents. Indeed, the entire spirit of the Hi-A organization is best expressed in the pledge, “To create, maintain and extend high standards of Christian character.” Hi-Y offers the teen-agers of Lawrence High a place to get together and spend their leisure time profitably. Most of all, Hi-A' maintains high ideals, tolerance, and good will among all. Our glowing light takes you Sports Department. Scholarship great importance at Lawrence, but does not mean that athletics are ove looked. Because of the excellent facilities provided, and the time and energy devoted by the faculty, we have an athletic program of which we may all be proud. 1949 Football Review THE golden leaves fall aimlessly from the trees, the birds start their long trip to the warm southland, and convertibles are no longer seen with their tops down. At Lawrence High School these harbingers of Autumn meant the advent of the football season, where the call for candidates was answered by some seventy strong, all hoping for a starting berth on the 1949-50 edition of the Golden Tornadoes football team. At the helm of this years eleven was Mr. Theodore Cia-millo, who was assisted by Mr. Frank King and Mr. Walter Kretz, both of whom had guided Lawrence teams in the past. The team practiced their plays and formations after classes on Lawrence’s athletic field. Opening their season in fine fashion, the Golden Tornadoes rolled over and outclassed Southampton eleven 34-0, under the a relights of Cedarhurst Stadium, on September 24. The entire team played a superb game. Sparked by two touchdown passes from the right arm of Arthur Feldman, the incessant driving of Emil Sarro, and the ruggedness and aggressiveness of their line, the Golden Tornadoes carved the second notch in their victory belt to the tune of 21-7 over the Flushing eleven, before 2,500 onlookers at Cedar-hurst Stadium on September 30. Scoring two touchdowns in the second half. the Lawrence steamroller next plowed under a sturdy Mineola aggregation on October 8 at the hitters stadium. Lenny Hazel threw two touchdown passes, both to Boh DeLeo, to account for all the Lawrence scoring and the 12-6 victory. A large crowd was present to watch Lawrence and Glen Cove put their winning streaks on the line as they met under the arc-lights at Cedarhurst Stadium on Ocotber 15. This night, however, the Covers were not to First row—Hazel. Jonyer, McCabe, Nelson. Daddona, Mr. King, Mr. Cianiillo, Mr. Kretz, DeLeo, Jones, Blount, Combs, Sarro, Garafano.

The one bright spot in an Otherwise dismal defeat, w'as the fine kicking of Andrew Jonver, who time and again forced Glen Cove deep into their own territory. The charges of Coach Ciamillo lost their second straight contest on October 22 to the Mepham Pirates. The Buccaneers rolled to their fifth consecutive triumph 20-6, as Lawrence could do little with the excellent running of Bill Budrow. In an effort to bolster the backfield. End Bob DeLeo and Guard Bob Schmide were moved to left halfback and fullback respectively for this contest. Lawrence scored two touchdowns and Valley Stream Central only one in the sixth contest of the season for the Tornadoes, and this spelled victory for the Lawrencians for the first time in the last three ball games. The 1,500 fans who braved the cold of Firemen’s Field were not disappointed. They saw' Lawrence march the opening kickoff 56 yards to their first score by Emil Sarro. Early in the second half the diminutive powerhouse again crossed the goal line to sew up the contest for Lawrence. The final score was 12-6. On the following Saturday afternoon the Lawrence gridders wrere humbled by the Se-wanliaka Indians 19-0, although they gave their all from beginning to end. Better reserves meant the difference in this test, as the Indians gave the Lawrence adherents at Cedarhurst Stadium little to cheer about, except for a brief period in the final half when the Lawrencians just failed in their quest for an initial touchdown. Certain favorites to win by perhaps as much as two touchdowns, Lawrence High Snrro carries the ball around end. School surprised a homecoming crowd of some 7,000 fans at Cedarhurst Stadium on November 17 by virtually stalling Far Rocka-way’s celebrated pass attack, while they themselves scored four times for an easy victory. Lenny Hazel passed to Bob DeLeo to Jess Combs for two scores, and John Nelson and Robert Jones accounted for the remainder, as a successful gridiron season came to a close with five victories and three defeats. Hats off to Messieurs Ciamillo, King, and Kretz who so ably guided our team during the year. After the season was completed. Bob DeLeo who played such a tremendous game at end for Lawrence all season long was chosen on the first team of the Nassau County All-Scholastic eleven, a high honor accorded to few athletes. 75 A Lawrence back being tackled in the Flushing game. Basketball BEFORE the last foot ha II had been kicked in Horn Memorial Stadium, Coach Harry Nathanson requested that all candidates for the varsity basketball team report to the gymnasium for tryouts. Over fifty eager young men answered his request on that bright day early in November. All hoped to secure one of the positions on the starting team left vacant by such stars as Boh Penny, Boh Demhar, and George Bernstein who graduated last year. During the next two weeks. Coach Nathanson carefully scrutinized his material, and selected the team. The weeks that followed were devoted to hard practices, and several scrimmages were held in order to condition the hoys properly. ing 13 points. On the following night a depressed Lawrence team journeyed to Long Beach only to meet defeat again. On the following Friday afternoon the Lawrence “hoop squad” made a sojourn to Hempstead. This was the first league game, and the results were much better. Our boys came home with a victory after being tied at the half. Bill Brightman tallied nineteen points for Lawrence. The “Buff and Blue” quintet engaged the South Side varsity next. Thi s game was also dominated by Lawrence and Jim O’Connor. “Jumping Jim” dropped twenty three points in the hoop. The next league game was with Mepham, and was one of the most thrilling of the year. hirst row—Ball. Jonyer, hchaclitcr, Fridman. DeLeo, Koenig, Owen. . Benjamin. Second row— Mr. Nathanson, Cestra, Landsman, Brightman, Weiss, Lesser, Phillips. Boyle, O'Connor. Flato. As usual the playing season was opened against oodmere. The game was held in their gym, on December 3rd. Lawrence started with a team composed of Co-Captains Boh DeLeo and Jay Boyle at the guards. Bill Brightman at center. Lew Lesser at one forward and Jim O’Connor at the other. The “Fighting Five” was overpowered. Captain Jay Boyle led Lawrence in scoring by collect- 76 An exciting moment under the Laurence backboard. Only in an overtime period did Lawrence succumb. In the last league game before Christmas vacation the Tornadoes defeated Central in their gym. A scoring record was set that night by Boh DeLeo who netted twenty - six points. On January 6, the “Red Devils” of Freeport invaded our court. Lawrence gained a tie for first place in Section I competition by repelling them. The game was controlled by the “Golden Tornadoes” from the beginning. Boh DeLeo paced the victors with eighteen points. The “Blue Plague” of Woodmore ended this winning streak on the following night. League play continued with Sewanhaka on the following Friday night. Jay Boyle led Lawrence’s attack with seventeen points, but even this was not enough to gain a victory. DeLeo reaches for a rebound against Freeport. It took place on our court, and our opponent was Hempstead. With twenty seconds remaining and one look at the clock. Jay Boyle drove through the entire Hempstead team to score a spectacular underhand layup and a foul shot which broke the tie, and gave us the game. Our second game with Mepham on February 3 was a repetition of the first game with that team. The game with Central on the tenth of February was the antithesis of our first game with that school. It was extremely close, hut the Lawrencians weakened in the closing minutes. The only bright spot in our next game with Freeport was Boh DeLeo’s shooting. He hit on a large percentage of his shots from the floor, and collected twenty-two points. DeLeo did it again against Sewanhaka and South Side to whom we lost our next two games. He scored twenty - two and eighteen points, respectively, in those encounters. In the Sewanhaka g a m e Lawrence led until the middle of the second half, when Sewanhaka, led by Gilchrest, their outstanding player, pulled away from the “Golden Tornadoes.’ by trouncing Baldwin in a League game on the twentieth. Jay Boyle, our Captain, once again led the scorers with sixteen points. At this point in the season the “Golden Tornadoes” were tied for third place in SSAL competition. fhe next encounter was also very exciting. Laurence fighting for the ball. 77 First row—Chambers, Steiner, Cohen, Drayton, ()r la, Leonard, Jacobs, Ziz .u. Lazar. Second row—Mr. Kogel, Mr. Mollo, Cirillo, Abrams, Bernstein, Filler. Proctor, Mari, Lisa, Pearsall, Solomon. Stiegler. Junior Varsity Basketball EARLY ill November forty boys answered the call for J. V. tryouts. Only nineteen of them made the squad. Preceding the first game, Mr. Kogel decided to use a two-team system, each team playing alternate quarters. On Friday, December 2, the J. V. opened their season against our traditional rival, Woodmere. The latter won the game by a 34-23 count. Emil Mari was high scorer for Lawrence with eight points. The following night at our gym was a different scene entirely, with Lawrence winning a thriller, 33-32, against Long Beach. Mari paced the scorers again. The following Tuesday at Hempstead, Lawrence trounced the Tigers, 45-27. George Cohan won shooting honors with nine points. A powerful South Side squad came from behind to win on December 10 over the tired hoopsters. Mepham downed a fighting Lawrence quintet, 42-22, next. The “Little Tornadoes” on December 21 topped Central by a scant margin of 28-26 in a game away from home. Cohan again led with seven points. The Law-rencians then won a squeaker from Freeport's Red Devils, 29-27. The next night, Lawrence again faced oodmere. The game was verv well played, and close until the final moments when Woodmere surged ahead to win, 32-26. Lawrence then traveled to Floral Park, and whipped the Sewanhaka Indians, 33-29. High man was Art Jacobs with eight points. On Friday, December 20, Emil Mari paved the way with nineteen points as we trounced Baldwin, 46-34. At No. 1 School a much-improved Hempstead quintet subdued our J. V., 42-23. During the rest of the season the J. V. played good hall and won many of their remaining contests. Leo Drayton attempts a jump shot. 78 “Wheaties” Pearsall hitting the dirt. Baseball IT is very unusual to begin a yearbook article without using a platitude, but this year’s baseball story is going to be an exception. At the time of this writing no starting team has been chosen by Coach Andrews, but several positions will be occupied by veterans of last year’s squad. Bob DeLeo, who has started since his sophomore year, will be seen at shortstop, and Bob Jones, also a veteran, will reside at first. Ben Standle and Angelo Daddona are competing for a regular catching berth, and the one that doesn't catch will play in the outfield. Emil Sarro and “W ea-ties” Pearsall, infielders from last year’s team, will see action as well as Alex Cestra, who was a member of last year’s J. V. squad. Outfield candidates who have been impressive in practices are Stan Dessel, a left-handed long ball hitter, ami Pete Cristofolo, both members of last year's team and Ronnie Lanzilotta, a newcomer. Pat Baker, Lou Ci-rillo, and Dan Catropa will be on the mound for the Lawrence nine. The team faces a difficult twenty-two game schedule beginning with Wood mere on April 11th. It is impossible to predict the outcome of the season, but it is safe to say that the ’SO team will finish high up in the final SSAL standings as have all our other teams in past years. First row—Cestra, Vivona, Christ of olo, Pearsall, Stamile, Cirillo, Wright, Lanzilotta, Venezio, Lynch. Second row—Brightnian, Belcher, Weinstein, Jones, Baker, Dessel, L.

Veltre, Hartwrep, Marrantonio, Dodge. Track AS March 15th drew near, minds turned from thoughts of “Income Tax” to the beginning of the 1950 Lawrence High School Track season. Coaches Frank Whitman and Francis King had high hopes for a very successful season because more than one hundred hoys reported for the first practice. After years of rebuilding both coaches feel that this is the year that Lawrence will he the leader in the track “circle.” This year’s team was composed mostly of veterans from the previous season with some promising new additions. The boys that were counted on for good performances were .Mel Altman. Lenny Hazel, and Henry Williams in the sprints; these hoys raced together as a relay team in Madison Scpiare Garden in one of the High School meets during the winter, and did very well. Frank Panariello and Jerry Steiner in the hurdles; Panariello has starred in this event in former years that he has competed, and Steiner, although a relative newcomer to track, has great promise; Charlie Coombs in the 440; Bob Phillips and Jessie Coombs in the 880; and Clifton Bull, Gene Proctor, and Jim O’Connor in the high jump. These three hoys are all tall, lanky and possess tremendous spring. They made the team strong in this particular event. Hounding out the card is the pole vault event where John Nelson, Boh Voebl and Lou Napolitano were the stalwarts. Other promising prospects were Joe illiams, Dave Stroman, Norton Hubbard, Andrew Riley, Bob Mott and Tom Giordano. T he schedule which was a rough and rugged one presented many formidable opponents for Lawrence. As we go to press, the team anxiously awaited a match with Wood-mere on April 19th. After a meet with Chain inade on May 4th, the best of our trackmen will run in the South Shore trials and finals in the hope of gaining a place in the Sectional Meet at West Point. 80 First row—Friedman, Schenkel, Handel. Weinreb, Sehaehler. Second row —DavidofT, Lehman, Abrams, David, Epstein, Mr. Cameron, Gerstein. rr • 1 emus THIS year, there was a large turnout of candidates for the tennis team. Mr. Frank Cameron, the coach, had the makings of a line squad with several varsity men returning. The three singles men on this year’s team were Marty Schachter, Steve Weinreb, and I)ave Gerstein. In the doubles, Coach Cameron depended upon Rodger David, Walter Epstein, Wally Lehman, Dick Davidoff, Hob Abrams, and Roy Friedman. Our racquet wielders had a tough schedule facing such top teams as Sewanhaka, Southside, Mepham, Oceanside, and Hempstead hut emerged victorious in most of their contests. Golf FOR almost as many years as the Lawrence golf team has been in existence, it has won the SSAL championship. This year the team looked just as promising as ever with Mr. Walter Kretz coaching, for the first time. He scheduled eight matches and most of them are triangular ones. Last year's great George Tavalaro, the Long Island champ, has graduated hut Joe Ennis, who competed in the famed “Caddies Tourney” in Ohio last season, is hack as well as Ken Sidel also a letterman. Many newcomers have shown the promise necessary to win the championship once again. First row—Esposito, K. Sidel, Ennis. Marchetti, Criri, M. Sidel.

Third row -Smith, Studley, Burxon. Mukamal. Holland, Del Chaise. Bowling THE Lawrence High School keglers, coached by Mr. Frank Whitman, had a very successful season. I he howlers, led by Bill Scholl, showed plenty of spirit and threatened every team in the league by throwing those strikes. The boys won most of their matches and finished near the top of the first division in league competition. Intramural Softball THE Intramural Softball League continued this fall under the able direction of Mr. Andrews and Mr. Simmonds. The league was divided into two divisions. Junior and Senior. The Senior league was very closely contested, and ended in a tie between the Celtics and Vagabonds. In the playoff game, the Celtics caught fire, and fought their way to the championship. The Junior league championship was won by the Jesters. Gvm Team UNDER the direction of Mr. Frank W hitman, the Lawrence High gym learned and practiced various gym routines. The hoys perfected their tumbling, their form on the parallel bars and other fundamentals. Led by such outstanding gymnasts as Joe Mukamal and Russell Abrams, the members of the gym team had a very successful and enjoyable year. Freshman Football THE 1949 Lawrence High School Freshman football team, coached by Mr. Frank Whitman, assisted by John Mollo, finished a successful gridiron season. The Little Tornadoes dropped their first two games to Freeport and Glen Cove by slight margins. After this they won their next two encounters without any difficulty, walloping Southside, 19-6, and Valley Stream, 45-6. They topped Sewan-haka 18-15 in their last contest.

The team consisted of practically all newcomers except for Joe Reisert and Herb Johnson. Among the new candidates, Marty Schachter and Bill Kass did very well both in the field and at hat. The schedule this year contained fourteen games, and Mr. Page was looking forward to winning the SSAL crown. J. Y. Baseball THIS year, Mr. Donald Clark again coached the junior varsity baseball team. At the time of this writing, the final cut has not been made since most of the boys are still on the varsity. The team had a very tedious schedule this season, composed of ten games. Future diamond heroes of the varsity are developed on Mr. Clark’s J. V. team and we expect a very successful season. Freshman Basketball IN November, fifty boys answered Mr. Ted Ciamillo’s call for the freshman basketball team, but after several practices the squad was cut to fifteen players. Some of the offensive threats were Fred Reisert, Toby Gumbs, Stan Hamilton, Mike Sidel, and Joel Chinman. Phil Esposito stood out on the defense. In his first year as coach, Mr. Ciamillo taught fast breaks, good rebounds and proper ball hand! ing. Freshman Track IN accord with our extensive athletic program, there was a freshman track team again this year. At the time of this writing the team had started practicing enthusiastically. The team was coached by Mr. Frank liiinan who is also the mentor of the var-sitv track team. The two teams worked out together in Horn Memorial Stadium. Most meets were with other schools in Section I, with regular league standings for freshman teams. hirst row—Grosman, Bertisch, Ka s. Johnson. Schach-lt r, Marx, Arbolino. Reisert.

Cheer Leaders Gvm Leaders w THE Cheer Leaders are the lovely lasses of Lawrence who lead the Golden Tornado rooters. Miss Shirley McPherson is the faculty adviser of this group and under her guidance many new cheers were learned by the girls. Miss “Mac” was assisted by Barbara Leonard, captain of the Cheer Leaders. Several new cheers were originated this year by Margot Cohen and Helen Catropa and these met with great success. I ACM year Mrs. Barber and Miss McPber-son pick girls who possess fine qualities which include leadership, generosity, and cleanliness and who excel in athletics as gym leaders. These girls, as their names suggest, assist their instructors in gym classes and help to take care of the apparatus in the gymnasium.

That hull was hit by one of the best hitters on the Lawrence High School girls' soft hall team. Sofllnill has always been a very popular sport at Lawrence and, as usual, a large number of girls were on hand to participate in the softball program. The entire team practiced hard for their spring season and .Miss Shirley McPherson did a wonderful job in coaching. Some of the hardest bitters were Ethel Lupyak, Yvonne Ryan, Dean Smith, and Julia Kieper. Archery THE girls of the Archery Team practiced their form diligently all season on Tuesdays and Thursdays, coached excellently by Mrs. Muriel T. Barber. As we go to press, the girls are planning matches against Mepham and East Rockaway, and they are confident that they will come out on top because of the advantages of fine instruction. In archery. as in other sports, practice must be kept up consistently or the archer will lose bis accuracy. Basketball EVERY year so many girls participate in the basketball program that the freshman, sophomore, juniors, and seniors are divided into four separate teams. The freshman and sophomores had an excellent record and won more games away from school than the senior team did. That is a sure sign of another good senior team next year. The best players on the senior team were Helene Marcus, Yvonne Ryan, Dean Smith, and Julia Rieper. First row—Marasco, Fercbee, Ryan, Smith, Rieper, Rocco, Wright. Second rote—Smith.

Under M rs. Barber’s guidance our girls tied for first place. Against Lyn-brook the entire team won every match. At Baldwin the girls won three out of four matches. Mary Ullman, a senior, and Joan Rosenberg, a sophomore, played first and second singles, respectively. Badminton A FEW girls tried out for the badminton team and those that did really had a swell time. It’s not a very difficult sport to master yet it keeps one on her toes at all times. Dean Smith and Yvonne Ryan, the team’s outstanding players, won the most games played away from school. Both of these senior girls stood out in many other school sports also. Mrs. Muriel T. Barber, who assisted the girls after classes, has always enjoyed teaching the sport. Hockey ENERGY, vitality, and a complete knowledge of the game are the requirements which the girls must possess in order to make the hockey honor team. The hockey season is in the month of October. Sports Day this year took place on October 24, and the team emerged victorious in one game and tied in two others. Julia Rieper and Kathy Lomax were the outstanding players for Lawrence. Miss Shirley McPherson coaches the team. I Table Tennis THE members of the table tennis team must be able to react quickly and have good coordination. 'Fhe team this year was especially fine. The top players were Helene Marcus and Lynn Nadanyi. At Mep-ham this year our female racket wielders won two out of four games. Mrs. Barber, their instructor, has tried to prepare a good team for next year by having the girls compete with each other during their gym classes. Bowling BOWLING is not only a very popular girls’ sport at Lawrence but is also participated in all year long by both boys and girls. On January 3, Oceanside met Lawrence, and our girls were victorious. In their next encounter, the team lost to Valley Stream. At Sport’s Day which was February 21, Helene Marcus, Linda Laub, Alice Mott, Julia Rieper, Emma Mills, and Miriam Haber bad high scores. Volleyball UNDER Mrs. Barber’s guidance, volleyball once more attracted a great many eager participants. On Sport's Day, w hich was held at Wood-mere High School on December 13, although the team did not fare too well in matches, the same spirit and sportsmanship wdiicli is characteristic of our school was shown.

School Life WHEN a school is built, the architect only assembles the plans for the structure of the building. It is for the occupants to infuse an atmosphere of friendliness that truly makes it a school. The student body may or may not transform this empty shell into a living and progressive organism. For the success and perfection of the system, each person must play his role. Thus, since school spirit has been injected into the heart ami nucleus of the school, Lawrence is not guilty of being a mere structure. Because each of the 1,500 parts are well played, we have a sound and happy organization in our midst. We recount here memories to which you have contributed during “49-50,” and which constitute Lawrence’s “School Life.” “Mr. Tempus Fugit” has travelled along at an unprecedented rate this year at Lawrence.

Tt was pleasant to meet old friends and teachers although it was cpiite difficult to return to the treadmill of learning. At three o’clock, Horn Memorial Stadium was once again hustling with activity and Mr. Cianiillo was training his gridiron stars for the tough schedule of games ahead; while on the tennis courts, dust was being kicked up by racket wielders. Along with these activities, the first issue of the Mental Pah was put on sale. As the weather grew cooler, Friday nights saw the Golden Tornadoes battling their opponents, while on the sidelines, Lawrencians, led by the cheer leaders, were encouraging their team. At the halfs, tin twiriers came onto the field marching to the music of the Lawrence Hand led by Mr. Jones. Then, before we realized it, those ominous six weeks’ exams and report cards crept up on us. “How can we raise money,” was the question facing the members of the senior class early in the year. They solved this problem in part by a ten-day magazine subscription drive and a successful Senior Review, “Senior Daze.” The highlight of December was the Buskins’ nineteenth annual tournament under the direction of Miss Ellsworth. As always the three plays which were presented made a great hit. Martin Scliwat for his role in “The Informer” and Arthur Bernstein for his comedy part in “Shooting Stars” had their names inscribed on the Buskin Cup. As a send-off for a merry Christmas vacation, the Mixed Chorus, under the supervision of Miss Carver, presented a Christmas skit and a medley of beautiful Christmas carols.

Many seniors were also seen with dictionaries in their possession in order to increase their vocabularies for the well known college hoard examinations. Shortly after exams Lawrence was teeming with excitement because club pictures were taken for the Lawrencian. During February, the Honor Society, in order to instill a greater incentive into the lower classmen, held an assembly at which the probationary members of the Society were inducted. Several Honor Society members told the freshmen and sophomores about this outstanding organization, its functions and requirements. Bright and early on April 27, the seniors with an air of superiority entered the building through the front door to take over the classes of the day. Very graciously, Mr. M a Hood and Miss TefTt relinquished their positions to Morty Maneker, who was principal, and Bob Jones, who acted as assistant principal. After this day, the seniors were more appreciative of their instructors whose positions they had filled. On the following night the seniors, assisted by Mr. King, outdid themselves by presenting “Senior Daze.

Soon June Night was upon us. Everyone looked forward to June Night with its induction of new Honor Society members, the singing of the Mixed Chorus and the presentation of awards to deserving Lawrencians. fhially there arrived one of those moments which we breathlessly await. That was the day in which the 1950 Lawrencian was distributed after long months of preparation by the staff, assisted by Mrs. Hazel C. Hicks. At long lost the theme was discovered and the identities of the senior celebs were revealed. Then came the Senior Prom, the last touch before graduation exercises, to a wonderful year. Graduation, the moment we all looked forward to, from the minute we entered Lawrence's doors soon followed. The unforgettable moment when each senior was handed his diploma will never he forgotten. These are just a few of the memories stored in the priceless box of wonderful moments in our school. We hope that we have given you the key to lock in all these recollections of Lawrence, vour friends, vour classmates and your teachers whose understanding ami aid we have valued so much. JUHt- vary r err V y SfA AXs • • ?P ? L MU Z UWrfDTO 7 ?G. 7AS 6 ? 95 Scenes from Mr. Beck's tcood-icorking class. ocational Department IT has been saitl that the vocational department at Lawrence High School ranks as one of the best on Long Island. A program is rated as excellent or poor according to the instructors, materials available, and whether the benefits derived from tlie program have worth or not. Without automobile mechanics, electricians, carpenters, etc., industrialization and progress cannot go on. According to statistics, sixty-six percent of the working force in the United States does manual labor— work employing both brains and hands. Basically, the value of the worker will depend upon the character and ability of his instructor to teach. All the teachers of the Lawrence Vocational Department meet the stipulation of ability and fine personality. The Lawrence shop, under the able directorship of Mr. Keller, contains five distinct branches: auto mechanics, building trades, sheet metal and welding, machine, and electrical shops. The faculty consists of Mr. Keller, director; Mr. Fleming, auto mechanics instructor: Mr. Katz, who teaches pupils about sheet metal and welding; Mr. Beck, Students using an electric drill. ' Discovering the workings of an Fixing an electric outlet. engine. 96 who instructs students in carpentry; and Mr. Clarkson, who trains our future electricians. Perhaps you may have been wondering why the roar of motors permeated your study of factor theorems, conic sections, or the Federal System this year. The explanation is simple Mr. Fleming's auto shop was moved from Central Avenue to the high school. Remember all the times you used to giggle when the clamor disturbed the teacher. The auto mechanics students, nevertheless, learn everything about an automobile through actual experience. Students work either on their shop teachers’ cars or on those of other trusting individuals. With the actual autos to work with, they obtain the confidence and training necessary for earning a living, once they have left school. Mr. Beck’s carpentry department is an interesting place to visit. The construction of houses on full and small scales comprises part of a pupil’s activities in this class. The proper use of tools ami the production of other wooden articles rounds out the course. Because of the present and future demand for housing, constructors have an essential role to play in supplying this demand. The acetylene torch seems to highlight Mr. Kriz's sheet metal and welding shop. In this department, as well as in Mr. Keller’s machine shop, a visitor marvels at the numerous machines made available to the vocational students. In Mr. Kriz’s class, metal joining and riveting is taught: while in Mr. Keller’s machine shop the use of laths, milling ma- Although still young, this Laurence Vocational student is a welding expert. Mr. Flemming instructs two future auto mechanics. A busy machine shop student. chines, and drill presses is studied. Because of the introduction of television and other recent electronic developments, the field of electricity offers vast opportunities for capable young men. Anyone walking into Mr. Clarkson’s electrical class would be shocked at the terms used. Direct current, voltage, ammeter and voltmeter readings, and induction coils are simple for these fellows to comprehend. Here the theory and effects of electricity are studied by the disassembling of appliances such as toaster, radios, irons ,etc. The shop work does not dominate the vocational student’s entire program, however. This year by far there has been a greater correlation between academic and vocational studies. Vocational science, similar to physics, vocational mathematics, English, and Social Studies make up the round of academic subjects. A start has been made in transferring designs and plans from the mechanical drawing classes into the finished products at the vocational school. After four years of intensive practical training, a student in this department is fully prepared to enter his choice of vocation. 97 Mrs. Regina Doughty, Mr?. Kathryn Koppe, Mrs. Helen McGinn. Seated — Miss Dorothy Stone, Miss Beryl Rarhuti. Standing Mrs. Ruth Khrhanll. Mrs. Jane Purdy. School Staff FEW of us realize the fine joh done by the members of the school staff. First in the Superintendent’s office we find Mrs. Kathryn Koppe, Mrs. Helen McGinn, and Mrs. Regina Doughty. Mrs. Koppe is Secretary to Mr. Dodd, our Superintendent of Schools. Mrs. McGinn is Clerk of the Board of Education, while Mrs. Doughty is the Assistant Secretary in the Superintendent’s office. Many of us have met these ladies when we have applied for our working papers. In the Principal’s office we meet Mrs. Jane Purdy, Miss Beryl Barbuti and Miss Dorothy Stone. These young ladies are responsible for all of the routine work in the office such as keeping records, making out late slips and excuse slips, and handling telephone calls. In the Guidance office, Mrs. Ruth Ehrhardt is always ready to lend a helping hand. She aids students in filling out programs and college application blanks, and renders invaluable assistance at all times. Each of the Clark, Endcrs Murphy. Deremer. 98 above ladies has an active part in otir school organization and their work is appreciated by both students and faculty alike. When people visit Lawrence they cannot praise highly enough the cleanliness and fine appearance of our school. We are indebted to the Custodians of Lawrence High for the way in which they maintain the condition of both the inside of the building and the grounds outside. The head Custodians, Mr. Chris Schreiber and Mr. Cono Mazza, supervise all activities of the Custodian Staff. In the cafeteria are found several whose duties are to prepare and serve food to the hungry students of Lawrence. During the fourth and fifth periods they are kept constantly busy catering to the special tastes of the hungry pupils. We can always depend on Chef “Red Scholtz for a wide range of delicious foods. Overseeing the feeding of 1,000 people daily is Miss Winifred Sloane. Another member of the school staff whose aid is invaluable to the girls of our school is Mrs. Lydia Grady. Mrs. Grady is always on the job whenever a young lady needs assistance or advice. 99 : -t mates m TU'™ wmp 5Z y 9,, ty fttUfiJr SktAstiu O ' «4 «d SadUUn).. llO,it; � VS-il vW .� .' � sL Lo ILJSl. __ ,, ___________________________________ tJJjyTfl Q6J -lilt, JWL- ! n .ci ' BoP K hy v?

Special commendation is clue to Barbara Smith, our typist, and Thomas Berle, our assistant photographer. I am indeed indebted to Mrs. Hazel C. Hicks for her assistance. DAVID GERSTEIN, Editor-in-Chief. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all members of my staff for their untiring efforts which made this year’s campaign a success. I want to give special thanks to Geraldine Lerner and Helen Daitch who sold the most books and also to Helene Trussel and Barbara Goldstein for their outstanding assistance. ROBERT PINCUS, Circulation Manager At this time we would like to express our sincere appreciation to our advertisers who have so generously contributed to our yearbook. Without their generous cooperation the 1950 Lawrencian could not have been published. Our thanks also go to the members of the adverting staff for their untiring efforts in obtaining advertisements for the Lawrencian.
