FACULTY LIBERTY ,RTW LION lil LIBERTY UNION HIGH SCHOOL C vol. xxiv sRENtwooo - OAKLEY- BYRON - KNIGHTSEN June 1953 I NEW FACULTY ROOM The new faculty room has proven to be a social center, as each morning finds the teachers gathered to talk over the inter- esting events which have taken place since last they met. The first ones there find soft and comfortable seats, but the later ones must be content with the harder chairs. STARS OF TOMORROW Some of the most interesting bits of conversation have been about the new additions to the student body of L.U.H.S. in i968-1971. Steve Bronzan will no doubt be the star baseball player, if he follows in the shoes of his father, Coach Bronzan. Another star of sports will be Shawn Riley Ferrill who like his father, will doubtless excel in football. The captain of the Cadet Corps of 1970 will be Cristopher Carl Williams. He will be dashing as he escorts Francis Stack, the beautiful daughter of our science teacher, to the Mili- tary Ball. Young Inman, the youngest new addition to our faculty family, will make the best president our student body will ever have, if a sense of humor like the father's develops. FACULTY OF L.U.H.S. HAPPY RECOVERY Much concern was felt by the faculty and students over the serious illness of Mrs. B. Cross and Mr. R. Jackson. Mrs. Cross was able to return to school be- fore the end of the school year and we are happy that Mr. Jack- son will be with us this fall. They were both greatly missed, and we take this opportunity to tell them we are happy about their recovery. lF AT FIRST THEY DON'T SUCCEED . . . The male members of the fa- culty found difficulty in keeping up with the students in athletics this year. Twice the men were beaten by the B basketball team, by scores too degrading to be recorded. Condition and not age, of course, caused the fa- culty downfall. At present Mr. Williams, Commander of the Cadets, is trying desperately to qualify enough faculty men for a rifle competition with the Cadet Corps. Until wind drops to no wind at all, his success is un- certain. TO CROWN OR NOT TO CROWN! The brighter and quieter side of sports for the faculty takes place at any free moment in the faculty room. The checker board is seen often to be the center of all eyes. The games have been rather dragged-out and haphaz- ard. No official champion has been declared so far, but there have been several pretenders to the throne. Mr. Gherardi prob- ably has the best claim. Several participants would contest his right to the title, however, be- cause he uses Qthey sayj un- fair tactics, he thinks-before he moves! If not Mr. Gherardi, then Mr. Williams, whose uncanny ability to make two moves ap- pear as one gives him a decided advantage and a claim, just or not. It is quite doubtful that any champion will ever be named, and frankly, I believe no one cares. CONGRATULATIONS Two of the happy events of the year were the engagements of some of our teachers. Miss Lida Beemer, physical education teacher and Mr. Arthur Cate of the social studies department an- nounced their engagement this spring. Mrs. Mary Jane Beattie, public speaking and English teacher, announced her engage- ment to a local business man, Mr. Paul Barnes. Best wishes. to them all for a happy life ahead. FACULTY PICNIC The year ended with a picnic at Marsh Creek Springs for the faculty and their families.

DEDICATION . . . Liberty uf:-i. sf XE? This year the students of L.U.H.S, are dedicating the LIBERTY LION to a person whom we feel, in the short time he has been at Liberty, has done a great deal for the Student Body. He has instigated the Rally Committee to grow and prosper and to become one of the most popular organizations at Liberty. To him goes the credit of starting the Annual Homecoming Parade and Queen's Contest, and other activities spon- sored bythe Rally Club. He teaches mathematics, algebra and Freshman social studies. We wish to show our gratitude and appreciation to him by dedicating this year's annual to Mr. Arthur Cate.
