111 HE SHY LITTLE MAN on the cover was a favorite w'ith fans of the silent screen, so we’ll let him introduce us. Don’t let him fool you though, he was about the only shy thing in the twenties. It was the era of the Charleston and Black-Bottom, Speakeasies and Eliot Ness, flappers and dandies. To us the twenties are a legend—devoid of the sticky problems of reality. It was the carefree age of razzmatazz and raccoon coats—the cat’s pajamas. We’re sure that just as did the twenties, in retrospect your high school years will lose most of their problems and provide some of your best memories. It is to preserve these memories that this book was published. We’ve tried to capture that happiness for you and express it through the shape of the Roaring Twenties. So remember, it’s your book. Look it over and have fun, or should we say, “23 skidoo and oh you kid!” [8]

IN RECOGNITION MISS KATHRYN KOERBER, teacher of shorthand and typing, is retiring this year after forty-one years of devoted service at Lawrence High School. After completing her studies at Plattsburgh State Teachers College and New York University, Miss Koerber taught in Southampton, Long Island, and Tuckahoe, New York, before becoming a member of the faculty at Lawrence. During her years at Lawrence Miss Koerber helped to prepare many students for the business world. Through her teaching they learned proper office attitudes, mastery of various office aids, and other skills essential in the modern office. When asked her feelings about leaving, Miss Koerber commented, “I have enjoyed teaching at Lawrence and I will certainly miss it, but I am also looking forward to this opportunity for freedom and traveling.” The Class of 1964 wishes to thank Miss Koerber for the many years of dedicated service which she has rendered to Lawrence. To her we extend our best wishes for future happiness. [7]
