. K+ -7. Under the Big Top Again the Tigers Roar resounds through the winter quarters of LCHS circus. This year has been filled with many interesting per- formances which will easily be recalled by those of the circus family. The performers, trainers, and ring leaders this year have done their work well and their acts will long be remembered. Through the pages of this pub- lication it is the hope of those in charge that you may see with us the show of the 1944- 45 school year under the Big Top at LCHS.

Harrison, O. M. Keller, C. W. Greiye, Paul B. Houston lohn IJ. Roush, W. A. Siebert SCHOOL BOARD The Big Top at LCHS is kept under control by the Board of Directors. It is the duty of this board to write the acts and see that they are carried through to the end. The directors are deserving of all the praise that is be- stowed upon them by the student body. Their deep interest in the outcome of the aets in LCHS has made this school one of the best in southern Indiana. Mr. O. M. Keller heads the board and he is assisted by: Mr. Paul B. Houston, Mr. Arthur Seibert, Mr. Louis Rodenberg, Mr. C. W. Greive, Mr. Carl Roemer, and Mr. John D. Roush. All of these directors are well fitted to direct and guide the students under the Big Top. l6l l 1 ADMINISTRATION MR. HARRISON is the ring master under our Big Top and is completing his third year of being a successful superintendent. Through his untiring effort, he has accomplished much in mak- ing LCHS one of the outstanding schools of southern Indiana. MR. PRATIIER, our master of ceremonies, assumed the posi- tion of principal, science instructor, and dean of boys this year. He taught formerly at Frankfort, Bedford, and before that at A11I'0I'a. MRS. PATSY CRIDER, secretary under the Big Top for six years, has won the love and respect of her fellow troupers through her willingness to help at all times and her pleasing personality. Her great ability to do the many tasks that arise will long be remembered. I7l GEORGE E. BATEMAN MARY S. MALONE A. B. A-A DePauw A.

P atsy Morris You now behold the hardest working act in the circus. Not only do the Juniors perform daily for the ringmasters, but they are also in charge of the concessions. At every performance of the basketball and football teams, the Juniors were seen selling cokes, candy, and potato chips. One of their side concessions was the sale of pencils, pins, and potholders. These versa- tile performers made their own posters E211 for their bake sale, which was a tre- mendous success. Another outstanding event was their play, Don't Take My Penny. All this was, ol' course, leading up to the climax of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom, which was a very impressive occasion. The capable sponsors who stood behind the Junior class were Miss Ruth Bertsch, Miss Celeste O'Shaughnessy, Miss Mildred Cole, and Mr. Fred Marlette. -I ,,YLv -l-- 1 les Biz:-IJf'l10!, C:1lvv1't, Vuwsorn, Bryant, Eckstoin, Cook 2: cl Ilzw,--tl:-isc-rl, Folvy, lifter, Bcntlc, Agncr, Gcnslleimer .5 11 llzm'-flullan, Batchclor lth Raw-Atkins, Fox, Bmuvr, Freeland, Bennett ith linw-Gilmour, Culvert.

M arcia Scheibler The brilliant shade of green which an- nounced this act last year in its initial ap- pearance under the Big Top has quickly faded. These people have become veteran troopers and are getting top billing this season. In the State Solo Contest Carolyn Kern, William Fox, and Paul Perrine represented their class and each succeeded in bringing home a second place award. Russell Freeland, Charles Warburton, John Calvert, John Marble, and Paul Tremain E231 have made a fine showing on the basket- ball and football teams this year. The business world has something to look forward to when the commercial- minded members of this class leave the Big Top. Marge Stryker was the first Sophomore to be awarded the 60-word typing pin, and Anna Bentle, Doris Kittle, Mary Weismiller, Carolyn Kern, Glenn Snelling, and Betty Warburton have re- ceived 40-word typing pins. The entire class has supported all school activities and willingly cooperated at all times. lst Row-Roemer, Spargo, Smashey, Ross, Shoemaker, Schwing 2nd Row-C. Wittte, Savage, Sehmarr, B. Witte, J.

Although the green was very obvious at the beginning of the year, you can no longer distinguish the Freshies from the other students. Four Freshmen entered the State Solo Contest at Terre Haute. OI these, Barbara Roemer won a first division, Jane Webb I2 ., Roger Kittle William Tibbetts Barbara Roemer Jane Webb P and Evelyn Spargo received second divi- sions, while Jim Harrison reeeived il third division placement.

Victory Day-Sectional . sam 61644 warm It was just four years ago that some of us got together and decided to exercise our talents under the Big Top at LCHS. With Alice Lee Sartin as the chief guide and Torn McLeaster and Dick Kaffenberger as assistants, we gradually learned the ropes of this new life. Of course, it takes quite a long time to learn new tricks, so in our sophomore year we were almost ready to do our first performance under the Big Top. joe Lacy, the star performer, guided us in our training. The big day has arrived! Our first performance was Plane Crazy , the junior class play. Between school work, book re- ports, parties and rehearsals for the play, wfe managed to find some time to sell pencils, cokes, pins and candy to earn money for the biggest and best performance of all. With the World of Tomorrow as the theme, the Junior-Senior prom was a big success. Our last great triumph under the Big Top was the senior class play, Little Women',. It was the first costume play given at LCHS in five years. The four sisters were played by Jean Metz as Meg, Lenore Buchanan as Jo, Juanita Vetter as Amy, and jackie Willen as Beth. Linda Berkshire and jack Lemm were starred as Mr. and Mrs. March with Eneas Barrott as john Brooke, Dick Kaffenberger as Laurie, and Bill Ross as Pro- fessor Bhaer. Now as we are preparing for our last great act under the Big Top, we happily look back on the great thrills that came with our many outstanding acts. We look to the day we take our place in the outside world and put all of our hard- carnedn knowledge to use.

These are the students who have main- tained a B average during their stay at the Big Top. Their motto has been: Get your lessons every day and the grades will take care of themselves. It works, too! It means more than just glancing at your books each day Y read your lesson thoroughly and study it with enthusiasm. I-Ilgher education is required in finding al- most any kind of job today, so don't slide over your lessons: keep tl ose grades up above C level. You'll even feel better taking home a Grade A credit book to your parents every six weeks. Try it onee and see, just as this honor group has done. We want to congratulate this fine group of performers and extend special congratulations to three Senior troupers. Those three are Linda Berkshire and Eneas Barrott who won scholarships to Purdue University and Jean Metz who won a scholarship to Indiana University. Keep plugging away at those grades, and let's have a larger group of honor students next year. E lst Row-B. Roemer, Snelling, Berkshire 2nd Row-P. Hayes, Ross, F. Gensheimer, R. Knue :trd Row-E.

This column was the chief means used by the staff to boost any and all organizations, events and campaigns which were con- nected with the school. Several new columns were initiated in this year's editions with Sport Scenes , a column ot sidelights on Tiger sports, and the Whopper Club, a liar's free-for-all, enjoying the greatest popularity. lst Row-B. Lamkin, Greive, Metz, McLeaster, Spanagel tlnd Row-Mrs. Ogden, Alexander, Kirsch, Levy, Kittle Most of the old columns which had proved to be enjoyable were retained. Among these were: The Tiger Salutes, a column devoted to the recognition of outstanding acts on the part of students, faculty and organizations: Just Brows- ing, a literary column which reviewed, briefly, books of interest to members of the student bodyg The Armed Forces, news and items concerning LCHS grad- uates and former students in the service ot' our country: and Dear Jane and Joe, an open letter to members of the armed forces which told of events and happen- ings in the school. One of the things of which the staff was most proud was its continued efforts to promote worthy causes in the school, principally the War Bond sales campaigns and participation in extra-curricular activi- ties. The L H1 News was completely be- hind every activity and organization and did its utmost to aid them. 71 The Press Club aided the war effort in other ways as well. At the end of the first semester editor Tom McLeaster cn- tered the Navy and reporter Fritz Baker entered the Army. Later in the school year, sports editor, Mike Hafenbritle, also left to enter the Army. Following advice given them by the National Scholastic Press Association, the Staff worked long and hard to improve the quality of their work. At the end of the first half of the publishing year they submitted the first eight issues to the Press Association for judgment and re- ceived a Second Class Honor Rating, hav- ing been against some of the stiffest eoni- petition in high school journalism. As a result of their efforts, the paper enjoyed one ot' the largest eireulations in its history with townspeople and graduates, especially those in the service, figuring largely in the final total.

The slogan is Pure thoughts, pure words, pure actions . Under the leadership of Miss Rolison for two years, a membership of twenty- five girls has attempted to carry out the aims of the club. The activities of the organization this year included: the formal initiation on November 10, the bringing of the Christ- mas spirit to ogr school by decorating the doors of the class rooms and the entrance doors and windows. The annual Mother and Daughter Banquet was held February 14. After the banquet Miss Rolison gave a brief talk on the purpose of .he Tri-Hi-Y. ,J,,,,,d-xc lst Row-Harrison, Scheibler, Rice, L.

It is made up of two chosen represent- atives from each class. The main reason for having this show is to make the gov- ernment of the school more democratic. The entertainers discuss and try to solve problems that come up in the circus af- fairs. E411 The Student Council hacked the sale of war stamps and bonds by suggesting that students buy a jeep. After they bought the jeep in record breaking time, they started a campaign to buy an ambu- lance which also was purchased in less than the scheduled time. The trainers and entertainers have appreciated the performance of the Stu- dent Council throughout the year. DRAMATICS CLUB President ........,,. .,,..,,.,..,.....

D arlene McLeaster The Dramaties Club started this year by electing the above officers. The club held its informal initiation last fall at the Conservation club in Greendale. The old and new members enjoyed a dinner follow- ed by dancing. There are ten Thespians in this club and four of them are Star Thespians. The-se people are members of the National Thespian Honor Society which was organ- ized in LCHS four years ago. They are Lenore Buchanan, Linda Berkshire, Mary Ann Roemer, Bob Hayes, Leo Bovard and Lucy Theis. The following are Star Thespians: .Ivan Knue, Eneas Barrett, Bob Jerger and Darlene MeLeaster. Ten points are required to become a Thespian and twenty points for a Star Thespian. These may be acquired by be- ing in a play, setting up scenery, getting properties, and doing other things neces- sary to make a production be a success. Besides giving plays, the Dramatics Club brought to the Big Top the Taterman Marionettes from Western College.

The play presented by the Junior troupers, Don't Take My Penny, was the story of the Pringle family. Penny, the younger daughter, stage struck, wanted the lead in Stars in Her Hair, much to the consternation of her college boy friend. The story ends happily with Mavis, Penny's older sister going into the movies instead of Penny, and Penny deciding that she would rather be a tennis champion anyway. The Senior performers gave Little VVomen , the first costume play to be pre- sented under the Big Top in five years. It is the story of the March family: father, Jack Lemmg Marmee, Linda Berkshire, and the four daughters. Meg, the eldest, Jean Metz, falls in love with John Brooke, Bud Barrett, and marries him in spite of the opposition of Aunt March, Betty Ruscher. Jo, Lenore Buchanan, who decided on a literary career finally realizes that she loves Mr. Bhaer, a German professor, Bill Ross. Beth, Jacqulyn Willen, provides the pathos when she dies of scarlet fever. Amy, Juanita Vetter surprises everyone by marrying Laurie, Dick Kaffenberger, the boy next door.

Training in this compartment of the Big Top was the Commerce Club. It is made up of girl troupers who have taken a commercial course. This organization wants its members to become familiar with modern business methods and to know what performances their employers- to-bc expect to see. Many interesting activities were pre- sented to the members in their training. These troupers took a tour through a bank, visited the Court House, held a HU meeting in a law office and conferred with a lawyer to learn something about the law profession, and were addressed by Mr. Dunning on the subject of the different kinds of insurance. lessened a Sometimes the training little and the troupe had fun-all will re- member the Christmas party at the tent of one of the troupers.

These twenty-five performers were under the guidance of Mr. Volland who had been with them for three years. The troupers had many interesting acts during the year: Mrs. Volland's talk on her European travels in 19343 Lt. Sonntag of Waterbury, Connecticut, speak- ing on Alaska where he had been station- ed, and an interesting talk given by Mr. McCann, postmaster of Lawrenceburg, on M51 Elmer Posey Wayne Marks the operation and details concerning a Post Office. At the end of the first semester, the club lost its president, Mike Hafenbritle, to the armed services. Wayne Marks was chosen to take his place. So, you see, the History Club is patriotic as well as edu- cational and entertaining. Much credit is due Mr, Volland. who has endlessly worked and trained these performers all along the way.

L enore Buchanan The Science Club is one of the new attractions added to the Big Top show this year. This club is divided into three side- shows that deal with thc future world of science. The first group, the Projection Club, with Karl Korn as chairman, did a wonderful job in showing moving pictures and slides to the different classes. The boys were on the job, too, when movies were shown for convocation programs. Ah, here's another side-show-the Camera Club. The lack of film prevented the students from struttin' their stuff but they did learn all about the camera and how to take good pictures in prepar- ation for the post-war era. Here's a side-show that really has a future-the Radio Club. Carolyn Green led the procession. They can fix anybody's radio! Mr. Prather led this sideshow, bring- ing in many new ideas about the world of science. lst Row-Gulley, L. Smashey, Coghill, M. Knue 2nd Row----Henson, M. Benning, C. Green, L.

Recognizing that it was impossible for girls to enjoy inter-school competition a Girls' Athletic Association was founded and has been functioning now for several years. The girls are encouraged to enjoy sport for the fun of it rather than for the glory of winning. Participation in archery, basketball, bicycling, bowling, hiking, horse back riding, swimming, tennis, tumbling, volleyball and other sports is encouraged. 'Q L R Patty Lou Hayes Jean Metz Dorothy Moody Carolyn Green The girls are further stimulated to enjoy these activities and to earn awards that are given. The awards are made on the basis of a point system: 400 points-- G. A. A. ping 700 points+L letter: 1000 points-sweater, 1500 points-trophy.

Looking toward the future with grease and dirt on their faces, the trainees learn- ed the principles of mechanics and elec- tricity under the able leadership of Mr. Miller. This newly organized vocational shop of the Big Top is located on the southwest corner of Short and Center Streets. The boys secured three cars a Stude- baker, Plymouth, and Chevroletf-ion which they could practice the fundamental prin- ciples of overhauling a motor. They did V s .:1. M. A. well the cars are still running! And if you ever want any electrical welding done, they will be only too glad to do it because that was part of their training, too. The center of attraction was the farm tractor and it served many useful purposes in- cluding transportation. Although the vocational shop is not completed yet, it has a wonderful start. Future plans include plumbing, advanced electricity and a canning factory. We hope Mr. Miller has even a greater success with these new plans.

Athletics I w R U .T COACH BATTHAUER Coach David Batthauer started an eleven- man football team at season time. He worked harrl with the boys by showing them new plays and line-ups. They played large schools to gain experience and learn different plays. Next sea- son, Dave will have his boys ready to go and they will have a victorious season. This spring Fmu-ln l52illillllPl' has led the Tigers in a new act perforlned on track and field. COACH BATEMAN Coach George Bateman completed his fourth year under the Big Top as a trainer for the Tigers. He is the one who brought fame to the Big Top by walking away with top honors at the Sectional Tourney, climaxing a winning season in basketball. Bud worked hard to inspire and instruct the Fighting Quintet on to victory and to good sportsmanship. We know in the coming seasons, Coach Bateman will always have a winning team. E521 Buchanan, Houston, Kinzer CHEERLEADERS Yea! Rah! Tigers! Fight! These were words often sent up under the Big Top by Cheerleaders Lenore Buchanan, Mary Lou Kinzer, and Bill Houston. The big job here for these three was to help boost the school spirit in support of the Orange and Black Tiger Team , and they did a good job. They were seldom absent from the ring and this helped the team turn in fine performances. Three other important performers seen under the Big Top many times this year were Ruby Snelling, Lcnora Bovarcl and Patsy Shelton, cheerleaders for the Tiger Cubs . Much credit should he given to the cheerleaders for their exhibi- tion of good sportsmanship and their willingness to eoopc-rate at all times. iw... 3,.,tX?,g , W, Snelling, Bovard, Shelton E531 Senior Eleven Kottas XVf'iSIUil1Ul' CNY ROSS Hwy Parker Knue Ile-nsmm Korn Lammel Lemm i541 S an RIGI IT END JEAN KNUE, was one of the strongest parts of the Tiger line in both 6 and 11- man football. He was elected honorary captain of the squad. RIGHT GUARD CHARLES HENSON, overcame the handi- cap of small size to hold a position on the Tiger line and often held against opponents nearly twice his size. CENT ER KARL KORN, also a newcomer to the grid- iron sport, played great ball as first string center and dropped many an opponent to the dust. LEFT GUARD DALE LEMMEL, played foothall for the tirst time this year hut his aggressiveness and determination proved valuable to the squad on many occasions. LEFT END JACK LEMM, played his second year on the team and was a valuable asset when Coach Batthauer needed someone to help stop enemy power drives. Wanda!! Sguacf T551 STUDENT MANAGER BILL ROSS, who carried the water jug and first aid equipment for the team was a familiar sight at all the games. LEFT TACKLE JOE LACY, was a sparkplug on the Tiger line. His highpoint came when he snatched an Aurora pass on the scrimmage line and raced forty yards for a touchdown. QUARTERBACK BILL PARKIGIVS speed was a contribitingg factor in the success of the team and his value as a pass receiver was great. Ile was ehief ground gainer in many games. RIGHT HALF BACK FRANK WEISMILLER, proved to be a valuable asset to the team and his hall handling and passing helped the Tiger ol'- fensive to click on many occasions. LEFT HALl7IiAt li JERRY GRAY, was the mainspring in the Tiger hackfield and did most ot' the heavy work for the squad. Ile was the main pass- er and gained much yardage through the line. FULLBACR BILL K0'I l'AS, a newcomer to the school, played well with the 'l'ig'ers and came in handy on many occasions as a defensive backiield man. 4 S Emboldened by the success of their 1943-'44 six-man football season in which they went undefeated, our Tiger grid team, under the expert leadership ot' Coach Dave Batthauer, confidently launched an ambitious schedule for '44-'45 which in- cluded both six and eleven man games against some of the toughest competition available. When the Ilnal gun had sounded and the final play called, it found the Tigers had been on the low end of every match Hl eleven man football, often by large lTlHl'glIlSQ but the team, bruised, battered and much wiser in the lore of the game, still undaunted, was already looking for- ward to their next season and a chance lor revenge. In six-man ball they had fared muen better winning twice over their arch rivals, the Aurora Red Devils, who were llll? only nearby team still playing the qllit-ld-r type of game. Rushville 32 - Luwreneelnurg I3 The Tigers dedicated Neary Ivlemorial Stadium when tlley played a night game against a shifty team from liushville. They fought hard but the football-wise Lions were too much for the Orange and Black. 'Q H361 Paced by speedy Bill Bradley and powerful Ray Reed the Lions outscored the Tigers 20 to 0 in the first half. In the third quarter the Tigers managed to click long enough to score a touchdown, Vogel carry- ing over for the score, and extra-point, Gray booting. The Lions also made a touch- down in the third period. Weismiller passed to Vogel for the Tigers' other touchdown and another score by the Rushville squad made the final score 32-13 in favor of the visitors. WVoodward 33 - Luwreneeburg 6 On the following Friday, Woodward of Cincinnati traveled to Lawrenceburg to en- gage the Tigers in combat. They also were too much for the local team and specialized in power plays which the little Tigers fought valiantly but ineffectively to stem. Paul Crum led the Woodward attack and scored four out of five of the visitors' touch- downs, passing to a team-mate for the other. The Tigers' sole marker was made in the first quarter when the Tiger offen- sive carried the ball to the 2 yard line. After losing the hall on downs at this point the Tigers viciously broke up the first Woodward play and caused the visitors to fumble. .lean Knue recovered for the Tigers and Jerry Gray plunged over to score. Holmes of Covington 47 - Lawrenceburg 0 Still confidently seeking their first eleven-man victory the Tigers traveled to Covington, Kentucky, where they engaged the former state champs, Holmes High School, and received a terrific beating. The Kentuckians played a brand of ball that had both power and deception with a good grade of passing for variety. Their defense was very good and they stopped the hard-fighting Tigers on nearly every line play. The Orange and Black was unable to even endanger the Holmes goal line until late in the final quarter when they managed to complete three passes and drive to within 10 yards of pay- dirt before the gun sounded. Lawrenceburg 29 - Aurora 12 After their defeats in eleven-man foot- ball the Tigers returned to the six man type of play to complete their season. The only remaining six-man football playing school was Aurora and the Tigers avenged their earlier defeats as they romped over the Red Devils. Vogel scored on the first play of the game as he ran 45 yards on an end run and Gray passed to Joe Lacy for the extra point. A little later Gray passed to Krein- hop tor another touchdown and to Lacy for the other extra point. Aurora scored two touchdowns in the first half, Fahey carrying both times, and the half ended 14 to 12. L57l Joe Lacy opened second halt scoring as he intercepted an Aurora pass on the line of scrimmage and ran it 40 yards for a touchdown. Gray converted with a drop- kick. Vogel completed the scoring with an- other touchdown in the touith quarter and the Tigers were victors, RU to 113. Lawrenceburg 27 - Aurora 12 In the return match the Red Devils showed much improvement and gave the 'tigers much trouble in defeating them. 'rhey used a series oi power plays to score a touchdown early in the first quarter. Later they carried the ball to Lawrence- burgs yard line but tailed to score. Law- renteburg took possession ot the ball and Jerry Gray ran the ball T5 yards for a touchdown. He passed to Lacy for the extra point and the Tigers led T-6 at the half. Bill l'arlier climased a Tiger drive in the third quarter as he scored from the live yard line and the lted Devils retaliated with a touchdown pass to ltunyan. Late in the third quarter the Tigers made a quick march down the field and Gray went over to score again. Gray passed to Lacy for the extra point. The Iinal quarter saw only one touch- rtovm. 'llhe 'tigers had the ball on their own zti yard line. Gray passed to Lacy who ran me oail to the Ai.rora's 15 yard line anri lad-railed to VtJg.ft'l as ht- was tackled. togt-l suort-tl and tlray passed to Lacy tor llltj iinal point in a It to lt! Tiger Victory. GI ENN DENNING tSeniorJ Bass has rounded out his second year on the varsity. He had plenty of speed and fight, and was always dangerous with his long shots. His aggressive playing will he missed. IRANK WEISMILLER lSeni0r5 Bunk had a nice eye for the basket, and was a steady player during his two years on the var- sity. Being a senior, he leaves an- other place to fill in the Tiger machine. MIKE HAFENBRITLE CSeni0rJ Following in the steps of his brother Bill, Mike is the second Hafenbritle to trot the hardwood. His one handed push shots have pulled many a game out of the fire for LCHS. Il' RRY GRAY fS9lli0l', Fans will remember Jerry for his delayed action shooting and his ability to rebound. He helped us win many hard fought games but now must leave his number 66 for another Tiger to fill. IACK LEMM tSeni0rJ Jack has tossed in the towels for the Tigers for the last time as he served as student manager in his senior year. IACK KIRSCII ttlllniorl .lack has come along with the rest of the boys for his first year on the varsity in his junior year. Ile should give his opponents something to worry about next SGHSOII. ALLAN OBERTING bluniorl Red played in most of the games this year, and showed a real eye for the basket on long shots. He has one more year to fight for LCHS. DON LACEY tJl1ni0rJ Don has plenty of drive which will be needed by the Tigers next year. Being only a junior, he can be counted on to do his share another season. BILL VOGEL ttluniorl Duke is a fast and very de- pendable ball player. He was al- ways on his toes and giving his best. He can be counted on to burn up the hardwood next year. DICK SCHNEIDER lJuni0rD Dick will be in there fighting for a position on the Tiger first five next year. He has plenty of fight and determination. BOB VVOOD Lluniorb This is Bob's first year on the varsity. He is steady and a good shot. He has still another year to play for LCHS. RUSSELL FREELAND tS0phmn0reD Deke is only a sophomore, and has two years to look forward to. He was the only underclass- man who had a chance to see action in the Sectional. tif 4 W .S 3 I 0 Q 17 7' f' ff 6 I5 .J B S Lawrencelourg 28 Vevay 24 The Tigers started their 1944-45 basketball season by defeating the War- riors.

They won 14 games and lost only 4, and for the games they lost they made the victors fight hard to win.
