1936 RED AND BLACK 17 The First Semester Budget Staff Journalism Although the Journalism department is probably the smallest in the school, it plays a very large part in the school life. The staffs of the Budget, the school paper which is issued every two weeks, are chosen from the advanced journalism classes. Most of the Red and Black staff is chosen from the Journalism classes also. Miss Iva Belle Harper is the sponsor of both publications. Events in this department during the year included the State Journalism Conference at the University of Kansas which was attended by twenty-three representatives from I.. M. H. S.g and the annual assembly presented by the Red and Black. During the first semester, Mr. Jerome Beatty, a former student of Lawrence High School, spoke to a combined group of the journalism classes about his experiences as a writer and gave some advice to would-be authors. This meeting with Mr. Beatty was considered the outstanding event of the year forithc journalism students. Mr. Jerome Beatty, '04, Helen. Nuranzore, Mr. Wherry

1936 RED AND BLACK 19 The Sophomore Class The Sophomore Class, always the largest in school, created a great deal of excite- ment in L. M. H. S. with their variety of personalities. They always bring with them a gang of good-looking girls and peppy boys. Not only are they easy to look at and full of pep, but they have many intelligent members. One of the highlights of the year was the annual sophomore assembly on January 17. The sophomore band with Jim Brown as the talented director presented a comical number. Several musically inclined members of the class gave interesting selections. Alan Ewing gave a reading. , This year's sophomore oflicers were Edwin Price, president, Alan Ewing, vice- presidentg Barbara Ann Knott, secretaryg Jack Stevenson, treasurerg and Betty Jean Abels, student council representative. Miss Spangler, Miss Carpenter, Miss Harper, Miss Newman, and M1'. Essick were thc sponsors. This class has taken its place with the other classes in the life of the school. This group is high in scholarship, and many of its members have participated in the various activities of the school. May they, as Juniors, continue to follow this fine path they have chartered for themselves.
