VOLUME FORTY-SEVEN THE I960 RED BLACK LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL, LAWRENCE, KANSAS STAFF EDITOR Susan Whitley EDITORIAL ASSISTANTS Marilyn Allen Sandy Hodges Vicki Rogers ART Brooke Beauchamp LAYOUT Fred Rose Bill Snyder PHOTOS Bob Rhodes Nelson Happy Bob Cohen ADVISOR Robert R. Dunwell PRINCIPAL Neal M. Wherry FOREWORD Thi, is the record of another year at Lawrence High—and yet it is more than that. It has been six years since the Lions moved into their modern building, and in that time Lawrence High School has taken on the features of a modern, comprehensive, educational program. Since Russia's first Sputnik went into orbit, public interest in secondary education has greatly increased, and Lawrence High School stands ready to meet the challenge of a modern age. In the past year not only have LHS students benefited from modern teaching techniques, but the curricular program has been broadened and enriched. In LHS classrooms, students learn modern communica- tion, modern concepts in mathematics and sciences, and modern ideals for social and governmental institutions. They learn the skills and at- titudes necessary for success in modern vocational and academic careers. Here in I960 we find not only a modern program, but, more impor- tant, modern students-citizens for tomorrow's modern world. We hope to demonstrate this modern influence in our...

The number of teachers at the high school has expanded with the growing needs of the students and the community. Today, participating in workshops, speaking at state meetings, and taking courses to keep up with the modern trend take up much of a teachers outside time. Members of the English depart- ment experimented this year with ability grouping: in the social science and mathematics department, the accelerated program has been in effect for two years. Science teachers, aware of their sudden importance in the modern age, have experimented with new methods in their classes. The counseling staff has been enlarged to accomodate more students. At Lawrence High, the faculty sets the pace for change. 6 FACULTY..— At Lawrence High School enjoyed another suc- cessful year under the capable direction of Neal M. Wherry who, as principal, had many duties to perform and a wide variety of activities to over- see this year. Mr. Wherry graduated from Sterling College with an AB degree and from K.U. with an MA. He also attended Leland Stanford for grad- uate work. ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICIALS William D. Wolf© Superintendent of Schools J. J. Wilson President, Board of Education Carl B.

These activities, many of which are planned by the stu- dents themselves, range from the Informative to the entertaining. Students are given the opportunity to learn more about new developments in various fields through assemblies and displays such as the one given by the Atomic Energy Commission. Dances such as the WPA. Christmas Formal. Cupid's Capers. Get Acquainted dances and varsities scattered through the year provided many chances for gregarious students to relax and have a good time. These activities added to classwork, or- ganizations. and athletics help make Lawrence High School a modern comprehensive high school. 16 Parents can be late. too. our teachers found out on Parent-Visitation Night. September 22. This yearly event gives parents of every student a chance to visit and learn about their classes on a shortened schedule. Whadda you mean we don't dance? asks Carl Smith as he whirls his girl around the floor at the varsity after the Shawnee-Mission East football game, October 9. 18 Even though the girls pay for everything Women Pay All night, boy: still flock to the punch bowl (supervised here by Diane Christopher) to get drinks for their dates and themselves. The boys enjoy themselves (for free) in one phase of the annual Twirp Week” at the Women Pay All Dance, October 24. The Fi-Dels, made up of Lawrence High School alumni, thumped, plunked, and wailed their way through the Shaw- nee-Mission East varsity dance. 19 Students in Mr. Pulliam's homeroom brolce their piggy banks and gave 1900 pennies to the March of Dimes drive held in January. Fascinated, many students gave in to the urge to dig in with both hands, and Mimi Frink was kept busy as she recorded the amounts donated. 20 Visiting Haskell Indians stood by in the Haskell-Lawrence Assembly as their athletic director, Tony Coffin, spoke to us about the Has- kell 75th Anniversary Pagent. To sophomore Bill Sutton the big event of the Parent-Son banquet in November was the presentation of the Star Greenhand Award by fellow FFA members Ron Brink, Ken Breithaupt, and Larry Tuckel. Got an extra 30 cents? was the greeting after the March of Dimes assembly won by Mrs. Sue Dombeck's home room who dug down into their pockets and came up with $89.79. Who's got the bestest team in the state? Well, we've got the bestest team in the state and the trophies to prove it, too! This impressive row of trophies represents the winning or sharing of the NEKL crown 17 times in the past 18 years and the posters show the won-loss record since 1956. Mr. E. J. Logsdon, sponsor of the senior class of 1955, who presented the Lion, took part in the unveiling of the bronze statue in a December assembly. Although their attempts at typing term papers seem to be in vain from the looks of the wadded paper, Justin Rice and La Donna Tillotson keep their spirits up working together. 22 Shivering in the brisk January air, scientific minded Lawrence High School students wait to view the atomic energy display. AT WDRk' i Lawrence High School Thespians depicted the Nativity scene at the Christmas assembly this year. Their theme was What Christmas Means to Me. Homecoming At the end of two question-filled weeks, queen Virginia Schubert, and her attendants, Janis Mull and Nancy Carey, were crowned during the half of the Lawrence-Leavenworth football game. Although the final votes were cast by the student body the Tuesday before Homecoming, the name of the queen was withheld until the following Thursday evening when a dinner was held in honor of the queen and her attendants. Participating in the coronation were members of the LHS band and Pep Club who formed a huge crown on the field. In the midst of the crown were the three thrones upon which the girls sat during the coronation ceremonies when they received their bouquets of roses. The queen and her attendants were escorted to the thrones by Steve McNown. Tom Sego. and David Stinson while the band played Let Me Call You Sweetheart.'' Immediately after the game the girls were taken to the Stardust'' decorated gym at the High school where they reigned over the remainder of the fes- tivities. Radiant in her white floor length formal, senior Virginia Schubert was crowned queen of Lawrence High's 1959 Homecoming during halftime cere- monies at Haskell field. Virginia has been a cheer- leader and member of the A Cappella Choir for two years. She is also interested in sports and participates in many of the intramural programs. Virginia is a very attractive girl with a pleasant smile and pleasing personality. Her good taste in clothes and well-poised manner enhance her beauty. Very friendly, though reserved, Virginia has many friends not only in her own class but a- mong the underclassmen as well. Reigning over the 1959 Homecoming, Janis Mull, Queen Virginia Schubert, and Nancy Carey watched with approval the program presented at the varsity. The Royal Entertainers were David Walker, Buddy Lawrence, Mr. Don Beene, Mr. Charles Kassinger, Mr. Wayne Nelson, Don Lindley and Judy Nelson. Tbe royal party, consisting of the Queen, her attendants, and their escorts led off the first dance with music provided by the Serenaders” under the direction of Mr. Kassinger. 26 Homecoming attendant Nancy Carey is an attractive black-haired senior whose refined manners and con- siderate nature make her well-loved by the many who know her. A very studious and quiet girl, Nancy adheres to the old adage of all work and no play make Jack a dull boy. Nancy is seen at many athletic events and dances. Janis Mull is a friendly girl with a happy-go-lucky man- ner. Her haiel eyes and chestnut hair sparkled as she was crowned attendant at the homecoming ceremonies. Janis’s athletic ability and leadership is shown in her work in Leaders Club and as president of the Pep Club and Terpsichore. The basketball season got off to a hilarious start as these irreverent sophomores razzed the LHS team from coach to water boy. To the stirring strains of Mack the Knife the girls in Terpsichore swing into action. This pom-pom routine was per- formed at halftime of the Shawnee-Mission East game. Ready, set, go! Red team captain Verla Nauerth and Black team captain Nancy Oyler get in shape for the tug-of-war that winds up the Girl's Sports Show held at the end of April. What's the use of thinking of the misery of the world when you're al- ready miserable, shouts Sharon Stalcup in the Thespian production The Diary of Anne Frank. We're not the only people that have had to suffer. says Anne Frank (Sharon Stalcup) comfortingly to Peter (Byron Leonard). There have always been some people-some- times one race-sometimes another. Chris Pinet and Vinita Fishel get set to rock at the Cupid's Capers. Not everyone dances at dances-this foursome pre- fers to discuss such things as the merits of the re- freshments. Cupids, arrows, and hearts kept the couples in a ro- mantic mood as they danced to the music of Mr. R. Wayne Nelson's combo. Back, forward, slide. . .was that your foot? In spite of all discomforts, the girls seem to be enjoying them- selves. Cupids' Capers attendant Barbara Balfour receives her bouquet of red roses from Jeff Heeb, Hi-Y vice-presi- dent, as Queen Sandra Sinclair, (center) and attendant Carole Zimmerman look on. This dance held Feb. 26 was sponsored by the Hi-Y and Y-Teens. Balloting for King and Queen was done at the dance with Dave Stinson chosen as King with Richard Collister and Steve Edmonds acting as escorts for the Queen's attendants. 31 THLETIC5 Athletics carry outstanaing past, present, and poten- tial records at LHS today. Pride in our school standing in the Northeast Kansas League and in the state is re fleeted in the active participation and interest of the citizens of Lawrence and of the student body. To their credit the Lions hold the NEKL Champion- ships in cross country, football, basketball, track, tennis, and golf. This year we also gained prestige in the state with our top-ranked gymnastic team and swimming entry. Lawrence truly ranks high ' in athletics not only in the league and the state, but in the country as a modern high school excelling in the major seasonal sports through an athletic program designed with future goals in mind. 32 Determination, teamwork, and school spirit were the outstanding qualities in our NEKL and State Championship football team this year. At a tense moment, Coach Al Woolard prepares to send starting quarterback Jim Hill in to add another victory to the string. Go, team, go! The Little Lions charge to another victory on their way to an outstanding record of six wins and one loss. Little Lions, coached by Bill Pulliam and Walt Gehlbach. had an impressive record, losing only one game, the season's opener with Winchester. The team then went on to gain six consecutive wins, beating Topeka C ' in the final game of the season by a score of 7-6. Little Lion standouts for this season were Willie Mumford. Mike Milroy. Dan Hazlett. and Kent Dobbins. Maurice Kimball was high scorer. This year’s Little Lion team showed a fired-up drive and desire that will undoubtedly spell trouble for LHS opponents next year.

State champions for the fourth straight year, the mighty Law- rence Lions displayed the rugged defensive play and power- ful offense that carried them to another undefeated season. Lawrence started off the season in typical fashion, mauling Manhattan 40-6 in the rain. Playing in the mud became a routine chore for the Lions, as over half their gomes were played on muddy fields. The toughest competition was provided by Shawnee-Mission North and Highland Park. Although North scored on the second play of the gome, the Lions came back to win, 28-7. And everyone remembers the last game with Highland Park, when the Lions slip- ped and slid on the frozen ground until a quick trip by Max Rife brought tennis shoes-and victory.

A mass ot players contronts Steve Ed- monds in the Atchison game. Rain, rain go away, come again some other day! shouted Lawrence fans at the. Ottawa game. However the mist finally vanished as did the threat of an upset leaving the Lions victorious 50-0. In the coldest game of the year the Lions resorted to tennis shoes to edge the Scotties by one point and ran their vic- tory string to thirty-eight games. Here Jack Cranor, Law- rence High's All-American fullback, plunges across the goal line with the game-winning extra point. Jack Cranor Fullback All-Amarican Come to papa!

Lion halfback Marvin Pine behind outstanding blocking breaks through Shawnee-Mission North and goes all the way to score in Lawrence’s 28-7 victory over the Indians. Running their victory string to thirty-eight games, the Lawrence Lions came out on top in the state championship race. A 13-0 win over Wy- andotte started the string in 1955. Since then, the Lions have outscored their opponents 1004-146. The head coach for the past ten years has been Allan Woolard. who has produced five state championship teams and two runners-up. Chosen Kansas Coach of the Year three times. Coach Woolard is ably assisted by Jerry Rogers and Max Rife, line coaches, and Howard Mehlinger. back- field coach. The Lions' accomplishments in football make an impressive list. In addition to their winning streak, the team has scored in their last one hundred seventy- two games; lost only three games in the last eight years and those by only a single point each; won the state championship six times in the past thirteen years and the last four years straight: and been champion or co-champion of the Northeast Kansas League 17 times in the last 18 years. The Class of I960 is especially proud of the seniors who went through six consecutive football seasons in junior and senior high school undefeated. Front Row: Martin Owant, student manager.

Shawnee-Mission East, and Atchison. B-team standouts for the season were Jack Allison, the leading scorer, Curtis Robb. Duane Vann, and Melvin Racy. The B-team games provided a lot of excitement for basketball fans and gave them a chance to see the varsity players of the future in action.

In the fourth quarter of the Lawrence-Manhatten game, Bill Royer out- leaps an Indian opponent to tip the ball to teammate Leonard Clark. Two points, cry the Lawrence fans as senior guard Tom Black leaps for a layup against the Leavenworth Pioneers. Lions Ciochon (34), Royer (32), and Clark (30) prepare to rebound as Dave Stinson (33) tries in vain to stop a Shawnee Mission East basket.

Neal Russell, and Scott Winters, the outloolc for the I960 track season was extremely good for the Lawrence Lions. Following Head Coach Jerry Roger s advice and Max Rife's assistance in the weights division, the squad contributed greatly to the outstanding spring sports record of LHS. Working out in Allen Fieldhouse are two of our high-flying pole vaulters, • Justin Rice and Jack Armstrong. Coming 'round the bend are Lion milers Bruce White. BijLCottle and Andrew Mont- gomery. Ready, set, bang! And they're off. Top sprinters in the Lion mile relay team this year are Chuck Lanning, Jim Scofield, Bob Kimball and Larry Coleman. 49 Golf practice, under the supervision of head coach Al Woolard. started this year in February amidst knee-deep snow. The Lion team, potentially the strongest in years, had three members of last year's four-man team returning to attempt to repeat their 1959 NEKL victory. Members of the team are senior lettermen Paul Carlson, (at right), who was second medalist in the 1959 NEKL meet, and John Hanna, (below), who finished seventy-fifth in the nation last year at Ports- Top row: Kenny Roper, Paul Carlson, Phil Simms, Dave Stinson.

The third man on the team was Kenny Roper, another senior letter- man. Richard Beauchamp, sophomore, took the place of last year's fourth man who graduated. 50 LHS Tennis Team members this year were (top row) Chris Pinet, Bob Shenk, Jack Maloney, Tim Sommerville, John Estes (middle row) Bob West, Fred Hartman, Dan Haxelett, Henry Person, Larry Van Nortwick, Stan Hanson (front row) David Schwegler, David Bur- nett, David Storer, Pat Kennedy, and Coach Donald Binns. Steve McNown, one of the re- turning lettermen, will undoubt- edly add much strength, along with Richard Collister to the ten- nis team. Tennis, coached by Mr. Donald Binns. got off to a late start because of heavy snowstorms. Three lettermen from the 1959 squad that captured the league championship returned. Steve McNown, Richard Collister. and Jack Maloney were the three veterans who formed the nucleus of this year's team. All members of the team had high hopes for a season equal to. if not surpassing, last year when the Lion netmen posted a 3 win-2 loss-1 tie record. Chris Pinet, a sophomore recruit, puts a tough question to coach Donald Binns. Tuesday night holds a great deal of excitement for a large percentage of Lawrence High girls. Fifteen teams competed in this years Girls' City League basketball intramurals. The tournament began in the middle of February and carried over well in- to spring. The games are played with girls' rules and eight minute quarters with at least six players. They are played at 6:30 and 7:30 in the big and little gym. Points for playing and officiating are received a: they are in all intramurals. Typical of girls, matching outfits make the laying more fun. They range from harlequin over- louses to bib overalls. Substitutions from other teams are frequent, so often the outfits vary so much the original uniform is unrecognizable. The final score is important, but what really counts is the sportsmanship and the enjoyment of the competition. 1. McCauley, Hess, Wooden, Mull?Dalton. 2. Zimmerman, Kipp, Shepard.

Teaching methods have greatly developed through the use of film strips, revised texts, language laboratories, and improved equipment. The accelerated program, which groups students according to ability, has helped students work at their own levels in mathematics, social studies, and English. Students enrolled in part-time occupational education gained experience which they will use after graduation. Lawrence High School has a comprehensive program which prepares all students to meet the challenge of the modern world. 56 Regardless of modern innovafions in the education- al program, learning is still basically a student and a book, and library resources enjoy even more emphasis than ever before. Here Miss Justine Curry, LHS librarian, helps Gene Shaughnessy locate a book from the card catalog. - Mathematics is taught using the newest methods available. Students at LHS are given the opportunity to learn: Plane geometry, which shows how to prove angles equal, triangles congruent, and how to use inductive and deductive methods of reasoning: Algebra, which teaches how to work equations, extract square roots, and prepares the student for geometry: Solid geometry, which opens up new fields of three dimensions, height, width, and depth: Calculus and analytical geometry, which prepares the more advanced seniors for a higher level of college math as they learn to solve problems dealing with ve- locity and acceleration and to figure out areas of irregular forms. Bill Argersinger, a student in the junior advanced math class, takes a short cut to computation as he uses the six-foot slide rule in Mr. Jack Hennington's class. Using the sextant to measure angles occupies the time of Rabeth Paden and Kappy Hamilton, stu- dents in Mr. Lowell Bailey's geometry class. Mr. Jerry Rogers' sophomore geometry classes learned to bisect angles. Here Larry Briclcner uses a compass to insure accuracy. Dr. John Ise, professor em- eritus at Kansas University, ex- pounds on his economic the- ories to Jeremy Paretsky and John Fitch at the afternoon social studies seminar. Social studies at LHS feature an accelerated program for stu- ,dents enrolled in world history or American history. This de- partment makes use of films, guest speakers, and seminars for maximum benefit to the students. World history acquaints the student with different phases of man's development. The students study the origin of man, his religions, his problems, and debate the question of whether history will repeat itself. Problems that the world faces today are covered, and history is used to provide a background for discussion. American history deals with the growth of our country from its discovery to the present. American art, music, education, religion, architecture, and customs are traced, and the influence of political, social, and economic changes upon them are thoroughly discussed. American government students review the Constitution, the basic document for our government system, and learn the workings of our city, state, and national governments. The students attending United Nations Day in the fall participate in a model world assembly, and the spring trip to the Capitol in Topeka gives a firsthand view of our government in action. At left, Mr. Howard Mehlinger compares Steve Cambell's watch with accurate supposedly school time as Steve arrives late for his early class in world history. Early classes became less of an innovation and more of a drudge this year. Albert Ravenholt, speak- ing at the social studies seminar, tells of China's place in the world today. Here’s the place, says Mr. Donald Binns to Steve Sickles, a student in his A- merican history class, as they take an opportunity to view geographic relations of the modern world. M hling r Barneking Pulliam Woolard Coy Binns Rif Khabbai 61 Buddy Lawrence and Georgia Lehman prepare the ingredients for a chemistry experiment while Jami Wilson, at right, waits apprehen- sively. Gilbert Weideman investigates the structure of cells as seen under a microscope. Basham Roth Watson Whitney Wood Science at Lawrence High School gives the pupils an opportunity to experiment and work with living species, active chemicals, and light reflectors. Biology is the field of plant and animai study. The students learn the organization of a cell and the make-up of animal and plant bodies. Chemistry is the study of the composi- tion of materials and the changes in composition which these materials undergo. The classes learn to analyze powdered metals, blow and stretch out glass tubing, and fill the halls of Lawrence High School with peculiar odors. Physics, the science of matter and mo- tion. requires careful thinking to visualize the relationship between time, space, and matter, to trace the paths of light and sound with mi- crometers, and to experiment with electricity and sound. Members of Miss Rachel Bolton's debate class look over prospective material for the coming tournaments. Bolton Smith English classes concentrate on the four phases of communication: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Through the study at purposeful activities in these areas, these classes encompassed the broad range of grammar, literature, essays, poems, and stories. For the first time this year the idea of grouping students in English classes according to their abilities was carried out. Seniors put on a skit for National Edu- cation Week: juniors gained experience in giving talks: while many sophomores met the Bard of Avon for the first time in reading JULIUS CAESAR. Debate class after school (because of expanding grammar classes) is a jumbled mass of brief, cases, file boxes and wordy contentions being thrown around. But with the guidance of their instructor, Mrs. Rachel Bolton, debaters this year represented Lawrence well in individual events, dramatic, humorous, and ora- tory readings, extemporaneous speaking and in the pre- season and seasonal tournaments. Through debate, stu- dents learn to hold their own in front of an audience and to express their modern ideas clearly. 64 Marilyn Grantham and Charles Allphin prepare their rebuttal while Chuck Marvin of the opposing team of Marvin and Happy delivers his speech. These rules are to be learned for tomorrow , says Mr. Millard Denny to students, Bill Sny- der and David Robb. Miss Irene Smith, like all teachers, is always ready to answer a question. Students learn to consult the dictionary for answers to questions concerning meaning, spelling, and pronunciation of words. Journalism students under the guidance of Mr. Rob- ert R. Dunwell seek continuing improvement over their previous records of a very good rating on the yearbook and All Ameri- can on the BUDGET. The yearbook staff worked dilligently to prove that Lions Go Modern as they drew layout sheets, took pictures, and identi- fied students in working each deadline. The BUDGET staff, work- ing toward equal excellence in all areas - management, art, pho- tography. editing, news, and ad- vertising. - was kept busy inter- viewing new teachers, typing writeups on sports events, and soliciting ads. Brooke Beauchamp, Vicki Rogers, Susan Whitley, Dede Allen, and Sandy Hodges hold a conference to check material for the I960 RED AND BLACK. Dunwell Fred Rose and Bill Snyder busy themselves with yearbook page layouts while journalism sponsor Robert R. Dunwell oversees their work. Pasting up pages for the BUDGET is tedious work for Martha Kipp and Nancy Carey, but it can be fun. and educational. Bob Rhodes, BUDGET and year- book photo staff, makes magic in the darkroom. German, taught by Mrs. Beatrice Buller, acquaints one with the people and customs of German- speaking countries. Tienes usted zapatos (shoes)? Mar- jorie Fischer asks Dennis Budke in Miss Kay Proctor's Spanish class. Cheryl Fulcher finds une faute (a mistake) in the French dictation written on the board. C oreign language students get a chance to study not I only the language itself but the customs of the country where it is spoken. Latin. French. Spanish, and German are offered. Highlight of the year is the Roman Banquet, put on by the Latin classes feach spring under the direction of Miss Gertrude Ruttan. Each lan- guage is important: Latin serves as a basis for all lan- guages. while French. Spanish, and German give a measure of understanding psople in other lands. Mary Ruth tanning fastens the last pin as she helps Mimi Frink get ready for the Roman banquet spon- sored annually by Miss Gertrude Ruttan's Latin classes. Boys in Dad Perry's classes learn to master the technique of head stands. Physical education is one of the areas where the total development of the student is recognized and emphasized. Implementing the academic program, the gym classes strive to develop a sound mind in a sound body. Girls' gym familiarizes girls with major team sports and stimulates them in physical fitness, good grooming, and their knowledge of spectator sports. Boys' gym builds better citizens for the future by developing character and physical ability by playing team sports, working on apparatus, and listening to Dad Perry's short but to the point lectures. Parry Maxwell ball, as Cheryl Fulcher gets ready to Barbara Balfour and Nancy Oyler watch teammate Janet Heck spike the volley it back. Art students had a busy year. Miss Dorothy Wilson's classes helped with the homecoming and Christmas formal decorations, made Thanksgiving menus for hospital patients, designed their own Christmas cards, and displayed their work at the State Fair at Topeka. Those enrolled in the art crafts classes made cuff links, rings, pins, and tried their hands at sculpture. Barbara DcGraff takes advantage of the at- tractive scenery outside the art room win- dow. Joe Berg prepares to take a piece of fin- ished jewelry out of the kiln during a crafts class. Under the expert super- vision of Miss Dorothy Wil- son, art and craft students frequently decorated the halls and display windows of LHS. 69 Wiljon TB Setting up a display in the window are Tony Hen- derson and Pat Peterson, students in distributive education classes. Occupational education turns out retail clerks for today and secretaries for the future skilled in all phases of stenography. Typing involves practice drills to music, timed writings, typing model term papers and letters and day after day running through the daily six sentences. Shorthand is essential for all secretaries because taking dictation is an important part of office duties. The classes learn to write in a whole new language swift- ly and accurately and merit awards for their success at the end of the course. Secretarial Training provides office helpers who contribute efficient service to the office staff. The girls are taught to use the mimeograph and duplicator ma- chines. Distributive Education, the class and club for seniors planning to go into retail buying and selling, teaches students the art of setting up attractive dis- plays and developing good sales techniques. Club of- ficers were Bob Dyer, president; Ed Scribner, vice-pres- ident; Pat Nitch, secretary; Connie Riley, treasurer. The Future Secretaries of Lawrence, senior girls planning on a secretarial career, met Wednesday during activity period. Club officers were Nellie Colson, pres- ident; Judy Ousdahl, vice-president; Kay Miskimen. secretary; and Glenda North, treasurer. The club lis- tened to guest speakers, learned good secretarial habits, and participated in the State Contest held at Emporia in February. Anita Thomas puts a master copy in the mineo- graph machine as classmate Sherrell June pre- pares to turn the crank. 70 Susie Burns files papers in her office practice class. In this class the girls were given practical experience to prepare them for after graduation. Taking dictation on the board improves the speed of students in the shorthand classes. 71 Keep your eyes on the copy, Mrs. Erma Lardner, typing teach- er tells Jim Smith. I ndustrial arts prepares some boys ■ for manual vocations after high school and enables others to develop manual skills for an abundant life and well- spent leisure. Printing dance programs, student directories, and LHS stationery are a part of the printing students' assignments during the year. lassman Above, members of the woodworking class learn how to use the lathe and jointer, and how to select the right type of wood for class projects. Mechanical drawing, shown below, teaches architectural students to draw up house plans, make the blueprints to scale and come out with a workable product. In auto mechanics, the class finds out how internal com- bustion engines, carburetors, distributors, and universal function and repair and over- haul cars. Robertson T rade and Industry, the class I and organization for boys en- rolled in industrial arts, met during the activity period on Wednesday. With their sponsor, Leroy Cornelsen, the club took trips to Dupont and Goodyear Rubber in Topeka. The club officers were Dennis Flory. president: Rex Strunk, vice pres- ident; Gene Gfeller, treasurer; Jerry Cobb, secretary; and Eddie LaRue. parliamentarian. '•I earning To Do, Doing To Earn. LEarning To Live, Living To Serve is the motto of the Future Farmers of America. It is a motto which reflects the spirit and sincerity of modern farm youth. This organization, made up of boys primarily interested in farming as a career was led this year by officers Sam Pugh. Gerald Ice. Dennis Mitchell, Ron Brink, John Steele. Loren Anderson, and spon- sors Roy Cropp and Walter Gehlbach. Each FFA member has a project such as the beef cattle in the picture. One of the jobs of the sponsors is to advise and help the boys in carrying out their projects. Cropp Gehlbach FFA members take top honors in swine judg ing as well as other fields of agriculture. John Steele, Ron Brink, and Elmer James learn the fundamentals of grain judging. Judging teams were sent to many events through the year. Pat Krimmer pauses a moment to make a final check with the pat- tern's directions in sewing class. Orelup Home economics is the class where future homemakers learn the tasks of the modern housewife as they work with foods and clothing. In clothinq class, cutting, basting, trying on. and pressing are endless procedures in class as the girls work for weeks to produce a finished product which they can wear with pride. Cooking class involves planning menus using the charts of the eight essential foods, calories, and washing dishes. Tasting new dishes every day is not so good on the figure, but doing so is what makes cooking class unique. 75 To sift or not to sift, that is the question, says Dinah Dicker as Judy Ellenbarger and Linda Cox look on in cooking class. B� en Instrumental music at Lawrence High School has come a long way in the past few years. The band marched at halftime at most of the home football games and displayed a new style of march- ing, the Company front or single line formation. During the winter the marching band became a concert band and gave several concerts. The Pep Band backed up the students at basketball games, while the serenaders played for varsities and school dances. The Symphonic Winds Ensemble and the String Ensemble gave students a chance to participate in smaller, more advanced groups. The Lawrence High Orchestra gave concerts with the Choruses and participated in the Lawrence- Ottawa-Atchison Music Festival held in Lawrence in the spring. Orchestra officers were Randy Williams.

At that climactic moment they arise and leave to join the proud alumni of this modern school. AGM ZAT aNS There are eighteen various organizations here at Law- rence High School. Each student has an opportunity to join one or more of these activities as his energy, interest, and time permits. Dedicated teachers who sponsor these groups offer encouragement and advice, and stimulate the members’ interest in the home, church, school, com- munity and in other people. Clubs for students interested in business, dramatics, dancing, farming, athletics, sci- ence. nursing, school government, and Christian fellow- ship are available. These make up an important part of the school year as students' interest develop in the many different areas. Providing a colorful background at baslceiball games, the Pep Band, under the direction of Mr. Charles Kassinger, swings into The Battle of New Orleans. Pep Club, clad in red jackets, white blouses, and black skirts, cheered the Lions to many victories in this past year. With their sponsor. Mrs. Barbara Maxwell, they worked to promote interest in athletics, sportsmanship, and good will toward other schools. The Pep Club opened its social season with the annual W.P.A.. Woman Pay All dance, in October, which was followed in the spring by the Spring Formal. These girls spent many hours planning pep skits, painting signs, working in the concession stand during the var- sities. and co-operating with the Student Council and band in Homecoming ceremonies. At right, blue-jeaned Pep Clubber Carol Olson puts her best side forward in decorating for the Pep Club-sponsored W.P.A. dance. Pep Club officers took their turns working in the concession stand during basketball games. Here Mary Kay Dunlap, treasurer; Linda Hemphill, vice president; andjanis Mull, president, serve a customer during the half. Lawrence Fights! yell the cheerleaders, but many Pep Clubbers seem more interested in the game. Crowds such as these saw the Lions run up an eight-game win- ning streak early in the basketball season. Lions! shouts the Pep Club as the cheerleaders soar info the air at the end of each cheer. Sharon Pettengill Head Cheerleader Judy Kleinberg Carole Zimmerman Dede Allen Virginia Schubert Linda Midyett Alternate Leading the school in cheers for the B team and Little Lions' games this year were head cheerleader Gaylene Williamson, Mim? Frink, Jacque Brahler, and Mary Ruth Lanning. Karen Kerr, Nancy Edwards, Sara Hardiman, and Lana Darrow were the twirlers who marched in front of the LHS band this year. Few high school bands have flag swingers, and those that do can’t compare with LHS flag swingers Lynne Wiley, Pat Rappard. Bertie Campbell, and Marjorie Fischer, (not in picture.) Members of the Radio Club prepare to test the wonders of an AM radio during A period Wednesday morning. Roy Sisson operates the oscillascope to test the voltage of a light bulb in Radio Club. Radio Club is an organization under the direction of Mr. Chester Whitney in which the members have a chance to learn that which is necessary to obtain a ham operator's license. Boys interested in radio work in the electronics laboratory, practice code and learn the theories of radio. They also have the opportunity to set up their own radio station with the call letters KEAL Radio Club members John Dingman and Lynn Thompson tune in different sections of the country on the LHS radio. :L Bruce Rotbwell, Science Club president, points out different parts of a leaf model tc Alan Laptad, treasurer; Ben Kowing, vice-president; and Penny Glover, secretary. Science Club, whose purpose is to create an interest in science, met with its new sponsor, Mr. Stanley Roth, during activity period on Mondays. During the course of the year, members went on field trips to collect plants and animals. This club is affiliated with the National Science Club of America and the Kansas Junior Academy of Science. Mike Corbett discusses his project for the Science Fair, a club-spon- sored activity, with the advisor, Mr. Roth. Mr. Stanley Roth points out the main parts of a flower to Richard Boyd, John Estes, and Bruce Rothwell, members of the Science Club. Since last year's melodrama this has become a popular acting problem for Thespian officers Mike Milroy and Kathy Lukens. Since make-up often presents a prob- lem in the production of a play. Senior Thespians Randy Williams and Don Lindley do some experimenting. The fun-loving officers of Thespians are vice president, Whitney Westgate; scribe, Mike Milroy; president, Randy Williams; point secretary, Katby Lukens. Thespians of Troupe 157 had a busy year displaying their ability and offering modern ideas in makeup, lighting, publicity, and actual dramatics. These future artists of the theatre put in many hours of hard work after school and on Saturdays learning lines, collecting props, painting posters and constructing scenery. Students may become members of this national honor society by accumulating points earned by working in the various fields of theatre. The presentation of plays and assemblies, the principal goals of Thespians, was under the direction of their sponsor, Mr. Millard Denney. The Diary of Anne Frank was the major Thespian production this year, with Sharon Stalcup in the title role. Over 90 hours of practice were put into the play, and perhaps the hardest job was Sharon's as she tried to capture the emotions of Anne. But, Steve, I'm down here, mutters Brooke Beauchamp to Steve McNown in The Valiant anottier of the one-act plays. Endless hours of hard work were spent backstage building the many sets needed for Thespian productions this year. Villain Malcolm Smith displays his hardware in The Man in the Bowler Hat , one of the three one-act plays given in the fall. In the background, Randy Williams and Wynne Goff pray for de- liverance. IJb Nurses Club, under the direction of Super- visor of Health Jeanne Dicker, is the or- ganization for girls interested in nursing as a career. The girls deliver flowers to patients at the hospitals, take field trips, learn the fundamen- tals of first aid. have guest speakers, and see films concerning the aspects of a nursing career. These girls in their modern uniforms depict the nurses of tomorrow. Conferring with sponsor Mrs. Jeanne Dicker are of- ficers Barbara Harris, vice president; Ida Nesmith, pres- ident; Judy Reed, treasurer; and Gwen Davis, secretary. Barbara Harris takes note of the number of dissenters during voting in a Nurses Club meeting. Working at the hospital from 5 to 6 each night gave many girls an insight into their future careers. Here Susie Burns and Mary Sue James prepare to deliver flowers to hospital patients. Student Council, the student governing body at LHS, started the year by spon- soring a get-acquainted party after the foot- ball scrimmage in early September. Later the Student Council toolc charge of the class e- lections and hosted the Student Council Con- vention held at Lawrence. On October 16. the Pep Club. Student Council, and band combined to make the 1959 Homecoming a true high- light of the fall’s activities. The big social event of the year was the Christmas Formal, at which Santa made his an- nual visit, this year to an Ice Palace. Working with sponsor Max Stalcup this year were president, Marvin Pine; vice pres- ident. Larry Colburn; secretary. Susan Whitley; senior representative. Steve McNown; junior representative. Judy McKinney: and sophomore representative. David Burckhalter. Student Council secretary Susan Whitley records the outcome of a vote as Senior Representative Steve McNown and Junior Repre- sentative Judy McKinney check her honesty. Marilyn Allen, Barbara Robbins, and Janis Mull were but a few of the many students needed to keep track of the continuous flow of money at the Student Council- sponsored March of Dimes as- sembly in January. v ♦i, 1 Santa Claus (who by some strange coincidence bore a slight resemblance to IHS faculty member Donald Binns) visited all the good boys and girls in Lion Land who came to the Student Council-sponsored Christ- mas Formal. Another of the many Student Council-sponsored ac- tivities is the Homecoming Varsity. This year's dance was an outstanding success as shown by the happy looks of queen Virginia Schubert, attendant Nancy Carey and escort Jack Cranor. The executive board of the Student Council meets to plan a coming as- sembly. Terpsichore, the modern dance club, entertained the student body several times this year with their clever dance routines. This club held tryouts in the fall at which time any girl wishing to join must pre- pare a three minute original dance. This club, whose sponsor is Mrs. Barbara Maxwell, is one of the newer clubs at LHS. Members of Terpsichore this year were: TOP ROW - Mimi Frinlc, Sandra Sinclair, Susan Howey, Janis Mull, Kathy Lukens. and Mary Ruth Lanning. MIDDLE ROW - Gaylene Williamson, Lindsey Easton, Hilda Gibson, Judy Howey, Mary Scott, and Cindy Hauser. FRONT ROW - Vicki Kimbrough, Shirley Shirk, Carol Chaney, Dorothy Rissman, Mary Ruth Andes, Grace Thomas, Betty Holmes. 142 Rehearsing for a Terpsichore assembly keeps sophomore Judy Howey on her Terpsichore officers Hilda Gibson, sec- retary; Kathy Lukens, vice president; and Janis Mull, president, demonstrate a few of the basic positions in modern dance. Leaders Club members assist Mrs. Barbara Maxwell in sophomore gym classes. They also manage and umpire intramural sports and strive to set an example for good sportsman- ship at all times. Leaders Club plans the spring sports show and sponsors the posture contest and intramural program. Clad in white shorts and white blouses, these girls are often seen in the halls near the concession stand as they pause for refreshment before again using their energy for the activity they enjoy most...sports. Get that rebound! is the cry as Leaders Clubbers learn the finer points of basketball. Diane Christopher spikes a fast ball over the net to Janet Heck during a junior volleyball game in Leaders Club. Ready to rebound a free thrown by President Bar- bara Balfour are the other Leaders Club officers; Cheryl Fulcher, Secretary; Janet Heck, Vice-pres- ident; and Nancy Oyler, Point Secretary. Senior Jim Bodin brought on many shreiks' of apprehension from the audience as he per- formed on the high bar during half time at basketball games. Boys Gym Club, under the capable direction of L R. Dad ' Perry, gives interested boys a chance to perform at meets and during half time demonstra- tions at basketball games. The purpose of the Gym Ciub is to develop gymnastics for the gymnastic team and to give boys an opportunity to develop further than their class work permits. Gym Club member Ron Hodges, in preparation for a future gym meet, practices a handstand on the parallel bars. Woody Miller, Mike Pendelton, Jeff Martin and Steven Sickles, members of the boys gym club sponsored by Dad Perry, performed on the horse during ■Hie halftime of the Atchison basketball game. Bobby O'Connell seems perfectly content in his up- side down position while executing a shoulder stand on the tying rings, one of the more demanding events in gymnastics. These boys form the nucleus of the LHS gym squad which hosted and proved to be one of the top teams at the first state-sanctioned gymnastics meet. 145 Y-Teens, under the leadership of Miss Faye Orelup. had a full schedule in 1959-1960 starting with the Bermuda Buzz get-acquainted picnic. This year continued with the Mother-Daughter Tea and rec- ognition ceremony in October, packing Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets, working on the CROP Drive, and acting as hostesses at the fall rally held at LHS. In February the Heartsisters held their annual Valentine party and the Y-Teens and Hi-Y again sponsored the Cupid's Capers dance. The year closed with the tra- ditional Gypsy Patteran. This highlight of the year is a ceremony at which time a letter buried the year before by the previous Y-Teen President is read and another written by the current president is buried along with those of years past. One of the major Y-Teens social events of the year was the Y- Teen Mother-Daughter Tea held in October. At a special pro- gram preceding the tea. the members were initiated. Members of the Y-Teens cabinet-officers, committee chairmen, and sponsors-were kept busy at meetings this year preparing for the many activities of the club. Y-Teeners Gaylene Williamson, Judy Klienberg, Suzanne Mills, Marilyn Allen and Susan Smith give their names to Barbara Bennet as she checks roll before the regular Thursday meeting. Barbara Robbins and Claudia Harris ask Virginia Shubert for today's letter from their heart sisters. Backstage, getting ready for the wor- ship service at a Y-Teens meeting are Kathy Lukens, Brooke Beauchamp, Pat Wooden, and Ida Nesmith. Hi-Y officers Chuck Lanning, Justin Rice, Steve Campbell and sponsor Eri Wood combined their talents to make this a successful year for the club. Head sponsor Eri Wood and junior Jeff Heeb are kept busy filling cups and selling candy bars to hungry students after school. Hi-Y, the yong men's Christian organiza- tion at LHS. met under the sponsorship of Mr. Eri Wood, on A period Thursdays to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Chris- tian character. At these meetings members en- joyed speakers, films and song fests. The year was highlighted with the CROP drive, annual chili feed, and initiation and joint meeting with the Y-Teens. Hi-Y members worked throughout the year in the concession stand, and with the Y-Teens sponsored the Cupid's Capers dance in February. Howard Wilcox shows that sophomores are willing and eager to take responsibility as he participates in the de- votional service at a regular Hi-Y meeting. 148 i Hi-Y members participate in many civic activities such as the CROP drive in October. The team of Marvin Pine and Milce Amyx shows that cheerfulness is a good policy to uphold when asking for a contribution. 149 Senior Key: Sophomore Year A JANICE AIKEN—Desoto High School. Desoto.
