SEHIUR IILHSS UFHEEHS In 1948-49, the Class of '54 felt its way around and became accustomed to the strange surroundings of L. H.S. When they returned as freshmen in '50, they elected Merle Roberts to lead them through a year in which they took part in several events. The high point of the year was the Freshmen Sock Hop. As sophomores, the class began to feel more sue of themselves as they helped in the traditional decorating of the halls. Nancy Landess was chosen as president for the year, and under her leadership, the class stepped forth to show its ability to be really a part of the senior high. The class party, given on March 17, followed the St. Patrick's Day theme. To lead in the eventful junior year, the class called on John Powell to serve as president. The magazine sales started the year, and with the money made from these sales and from concessions, the juniors were able to finance the Prom and Banquet which followed the theme of Mardi Gras. The big thrill of the year came when .class rings arrived and made the dream of being seniors seem a little closer. The junior play, Inner Willie, provided fun for both the cast and audience. - To begin the unforgetable year of their graduation, the Class of '54 elected Beverly Brown as its president. The events of the senior year were many and varied. The high points were the election of a senior as football queen, decorat- ing the halls, a class party honoring the faculty and juniors, Hush Day, Work Day, Skip Day, the Prom and Banquet given the seniors by the junior class, and the final and most exciting event, Commencement Week with its Class Day program, senior girls breakfast, Baccalaureate services and finally the long awaited climax, Commencement and that coveted diploma. 16 F0 JUDITH MARY BABB Lrvely good natured fun lovrng athletlc Majors Engllsh Social Scrence Mrnors Mathe matrcs Science Latrn Glrl Reserves 2 3 4 Pep Club 2 Glrls Glee Club 2 OrchesLra2 Prompter for Alrce tn Wonderland 4 Hosprtal Axde 4 BETTY JANE BUCHANAN Carefree fun lovrng ltke able Majors Englrsh Soc1al Scrence Mlnors Latrn Commerce, Home Economlcs Gxrls Reserves 2 3 4 Hospltal Alde 4 SEIIIUHS JOYCE DARLENE BAGSHAW Pleasant, fnendly to all humorous Majors Engllsh Home Economlcs Mrnors Soclal Sclence Scxence Laun Mathematrcs Grrl Reserves 2 3 4 Song Leader 4 Pep Club 3 Hosprtal A1de 4 a cappella Chou 3 4 Mrxed Chorus 2 3 4 Grrls Glee Club 4 Madrrgals 3 4 Or chestra 2 3,4 ANITA FAYE BURNS Slncere sweet well llked wmnrng personallty Majors Englrsh HomeEco nomrcs Mrnors Socral Scrence Latln Speech Grrl Reserves 2 3 4 De votrons Charrman 3 Presr dent 4 Pep Club 3 a cap pella Chou 2 3 4 Mlxed Chorus 2 3 4 Grrls Glee Club2 4 15 Volce Gul Ensemb1e3 Orchestra 2 3 4 Glrls Sextet 2,4 S 1r1t of the Prarrle Cast 2 e lEt?2 4 A9 KARL BROADFOOT Good looklng ntce dresser humorous Majors Englrsh Socral Scrence Industrial Arts Mlnors Mathemancs 5 CHARLES LEROY BUXTON Sincere courteous patlent Majors English Socral Sclence Industrlal Arts Minors Mathematics, Com merce Boys Glee Club 3 Inner Wrllle Productron Cast BEVERLY ANN BROWN Wlnnlng personality gay popular Smlllng Majors Engllsh Socral Science Mrnors Mathe matics Science, Latrn Commerce Grrl Reserves 2 3 4 Vlce pres1dent3 a cappella Chorr 2 3 4 Mrxed Chorus 2 3 4 Grrls Glee Club 4 Grrls Sextet 2 Llbrary Assrstant 4 Jr Red Cross 2 3 Pres1dent3 Orchestra 2,3,4 Stung Quartet4 Inner W1ll1e Cast 3 I-Iosprtal Arde 4 Class Presldent 4 DONALD EUGENE BYRUM Lanky, lazy likeable happy Majors Engllsh SOC131 Scrence MIDOIS Com merce, Industrral Arts '52 .Ni , -' M b TVA' l ' Q Q.

Although Liberal won this game, they fumbled considerably. Liberal throughout the game showed a strong defense on pass- es from the Cowboys although these were short of the receiver. Liberal scored on a 83-yard touchdown by Alan Forker with good blocking from the line. Henry Andrade Jr warren Henson, Jr, Back, One Year ALVA 2.5 LIBERAL 0 Alva's better line play and Liberal's fumble told the story of Liberal's defeat of 25-0 to the Goldbugs. Liberal could not fire up on its defense of offense enough to stop the strong running backs of Alva. This was the last time the Redskins used the T formation, In the next game, they used the familiar single wing. HAYS 19 LIBERAL 6 The Redskins traveled to Hays rated sixth in the state at that time to lose 19 6 in a game well played This game was the league opener for both squads L1beral's only tally came when J D Cox caught a Cadet pass and ran 95 yards for a touchdown with fine down field blocking by the line The Cadets scored all three of their touchdowns in the second quarter while the Redskins held them scoreless the re- mainder of the game.

Liberal's defense and offense were working wonderfully through- out the entire game. Toward the last quarter, the game became a little rough, and some players were sent out.

They scored three times on a Begkamp to Danford combination and beat Liberal 25-O in the second league game of the year. This was Liberal's poorest defense and offense play- ing of the year.

This was the first time Liberal scored on a substained drive so far as of this game. Liberal's second score came when Liberal recovered a fumble and took advantage of it by scoring 6 points. Later in the game Liberal started another drive that ended when Cox was tackled hard on the Z yard line and the ball was recovered in the end zone by a Meade player for a touchback. LIBERAL 35 DODGE CITY ST. MARY'S 6 The Redskins on Halloween night rolled over the Dodge City St. Mary's 35-6 as this team was entering its first year of competition in any sport The Redskins were not very aggressive with only a 14-point lead at the halftime. The second half was a different story because the Redskins plunged into the St. Mary's line and around ends until they piled up 35 points at the end of the fourth quarter. The Warriors played the rest of the game, letting St. Mary's score 6 points. .Il 4 4 x l ' i . r 5, .

Scott City was rated higher than Liberal, but the Redskins determined to complete a success- ful season and went on to stomp the Beavers. Liberal scored first with a Cox to Forker pass for a T. D. and the conversion was good. Then the Beavers went ahead to score two touchdowns. Liber-a1's second touchdown developed when Harrison made a 20-yard punt return, putting the ball on the Beaver's 22 yard line. In the third play, Fuller ran a- round end for paydirt.

As 'IEMirage went to press before any competitive contests were played off, a complete record can not be recordedg however the golf team entered an invitational tournament that was held at the Liberal Country Club on Saturday, April 10. For these, invitations were sent to schools within a radius of 150 miles, or perhaps farther, for one, two, or four golfers to compete. Contestants were entered according to the ruling of their statesg and a high school teacher accompanied the golfers. Each contestant played 27 holes of medal play. A Kansas-Oklahoma Activities League Golf Tournament was tentatively scheduled to be held at Liberal since Libera1's Country Club provided better playing facilities than those of any other of the league schools. The Liberal team expected to enter state competition in the latter part of May with possibly two boys competing in the state contest. p71 nj, ,P A J -f I ' 1 M1 T J '50 I K f -- , v- f STANDING: Stanley Shoemaker, Vic Kyler, Alfred Flores, Ronald Sherman, Bobby Strange, Jack Stout, and Charles Betts.
