After several years of planning and much endeavor by the poeple of Li- berty Township, our school has been enhanced by the addition of much need- ed facilities. Three new classrooms with a new biology lab have been added along with new office space, home economics department, and a voca- tional shop. The new gymnasium and sports facilities have greatly aided the physical education of Liberty stu- dents. One of the best stages and music facilities in Northern Indiana have proved to be of great benefit.

The capacity of our new gym created new responsibilities for all the council members. In the beginning of the year the Student Council chose blazers to distinguish the members while ushering at concerts, assemblies, and basketball games. The Student Council supervised a suc- cessful effort of financing Johnny Das- wool ' s senior year in high school. Johnny will graduate this year after re- ceiving four years of support from the students of Liberty. The highlight of the Student Council ' s activities this year was Liberty ' s Home- coming. The festivities began with a dance F riday evening after our basketball team ' s thrilling victory over Hebron. Saturday afternoon an open house was held, and two alumni basketball games were played. ’ The weekend was a grand success. Many seniors served on the Student Council this year. These seniors wish the best of luck to the future Student Councils and hope that they will success- fully guide the student body through many worthwhile projects in the years to come. 20 THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY STRESSES ACHIEVEMENT ROW ONE, left to right: Mr. Wood, Sponsor; D.

Its continual aim of higher education and study helped to give the society another successful year of achievement. In the spring of 1965, ten students entered the National Honor Society as probationary members. Nine seniors of the graduating class wore the pendants signifying them as mem- bers of the society. This year the club held various informative meet- ings. A skating party was planned, but weather conditions proved to be very unfavorable. 21 UN TROIS DEUX QUATRE. . .

At the carnival everyone enjoyed throwing the football through the gaily decorated tire that the French Club had for their project. At the end of the year all the member s had much fun at their annual banquet. Mr. Vance, along with all the participants, will agree that this year was a great success for the Le Cercle Francais 22 CRAPES AND GOBLETS MADE THE LATIN CLUB ENJOYABLE ROW ONE, left to right: P.

The members of the previous year were served at a banquet by the slaves who were being initiated. The old and new members sold candy to enable them to go to the annual convention, which was held at Butler University this year. The Junior Clas sical League convention provides both an opportunity to improve the club and a fun-packed adventure for the partici- pants. Mr. Loring ' s assistance in guiding the club and helping the students was greatly appreciated. 23 YOUNG SCIENTISTS, AMATEUR RADIO FANS HAVE CLUBS. ROW ONE, left to right: Mr. Botset, J. Bettin, C.

ROW Liberty has had a Science Club for a number of years. Its meetings have served to let the interested members discuss the various developments taking place in the scientific world. The Science Club was such a success last year that some of the members, under the sponsor ship of Mr. Botset, branched out to form a sort of sub- club centered around radios. The addition of an electronics class to the school ' s curriculum last fall inspired some of the members to construct their own sets. The ultimate goal of the Radio Club is to initiate and op- erate a local F. M. broadcasting sta- tion. 24 DRAMATIC AND ARTISTIC SKILLS ARE PART OF OUR LIFE. ROW ONE, left to right: L. Sheets, S.

Even though the members were not able to go through with their plans to attend a profes- sional play in Chicago, they kept up their interest in the theatrical world through reading and discussions. Many members helped with the Music Departments production of the WIZARD OF OZ. The Art Club was organized four years ago. Since then it has become a creative and enjoyable club for everyone concerned. This year the club had its own room in which the members were able to spend their spare time working on various pro- jects. The club ' s favorite craft was copper enameling. The Art Club bought its own kiln this spring. 25 FUN, FELLOWSHIP , EXERCISE ADD UP TO A GOOD YEAR ROW ONE, left to right: Mrs. Koester, G. Cushman, M. Blevins, B. Dillingham, P. Windhip, R. Cole, L.

This year, due to the new gym not being completed, the Girl ' s Athletic As sociation got a late start in its ac- tivitie s. Initiation of the eighteen new member s was held soon after the start of the second semester. When the gym was finished, there was a lot of new equipment available to the girls; parallel bars, balance beam, peg board, and tumbling mats. During the year the members played volleyball, dodgeball, basketball, and Davis, J. Beile, C. Marquardt, P. Wozniak, B. Adams, S. Baker, M. McMeans, C. Simmons. ROW FIVE: C. Marrs, R. Hoffman, E.

This was one of the most active years our G. A. A. has seen. Many girls received awards at the end of the school year, culminating nine months of fun and athletic fellowship with their fellow G. A. A. members. 26 THEY WILL GUIDE THE GENERATIONS WHICH WILL FOLLOW ROW ONE, left to right: Mrs. Baker, Sponsor; J. Matanich, P. Hockensmith, B. Foster, N. Williams. ROW TWO: N. Beile, D. Meska, P.

I will make my in- fluence count on the side of right, avoiding habits that weaken and de stroy . This year the Future Teachers of America held an enjoyable banquet at Wellman ' s. The students also participated in doing student teaching to help our teachers. The club is planning to attend the State conven- tion this year on April 24, at Indian- apolis. 27 FUTURE CAREERS AS NURSES INTEREST THESE GIRLS. ROW ONE, left to right: Mrs. Coppens, S. Foster, N.

Because Liberty has an abundance of girls seriously interested in pro- fessional nursing a few years ago, Mrs. Coppens guided these students into the formation of a new club, The Future Nurses Association. It has turned out to be one of the school ' s most active and constructive organi- zations. A student operated health service was originated last fall. Each F. T. A. member participated. Whenever a student was sent to the health room with a mild disorder, a future nurse would be on the spot to take his temp- erature or dress his wounds. In the spring the organization gave a tea for the R. N. Club from Porter Memorial Hospital in Valpariso. Toward the end of the school year the members celebrated National Future Nurses Day. This was accom- plished by each member wearing her official hat. On the same day the girls gave a party for their sister club, The Future Teacher s Associa- tion. 28 NEWSPAPER STARTS ANEW- HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR ROW ONE, left to right: L. Sheets, N. Salisbury, P.

This year the school paper was pulled out of mothballs and put into use again. Mrs. Harnoch, along with her dedicated staff, found it quite a job learning all the angles of the newspaper business. After a little sweat and a lot of practice, they found that it was not very hard at all. Since the newspaper was starting out fresh, it needed a new name. The student body voted to decide the new name. After the votes had been counted, the name was The LIONS ROAR. The final edition of the Lions Roar consisted of nothing but news about the departing Seniors. The Senior class wishes to thank the staff of the newspaper for the excellent job they did on the Senior Edition. 29 LIBRARIANS OFFICE AIDS SERVE THE SCHOOL. SEATED, left to right: J. Swarner, D.

The baseball team last season, supported by eight Seniors of the starting nine, produced many stars but failed to form a winning com- bination. F rom our team we were repre sented in the All-County Team by Doug Northland, Mike Marcinkowski, and Dana Martin. Their sparkling performance inspired everyone. Though the team didn ' t have a winning sea- son, the team had its moments of glory when we defeated Boone Grove, Washington, and Morgan. Bill Morgan pitched a one hit shut- out against Morgan for the best pitching effort of the season for any Liberty hurler. 38 STRONG DEFENSE CAUSE LIONS TO END WITH A 3 AND 4 RECORD.

After last year ' s winning record of four and three, it was disappointing to see this year ' s results. Not once did they come home with the sweet laurels of vic- tory in seven tries. Even though they did not win a meet, the long hours of tedious practice did not slack off. Calisthenics, wind sprints, and run- ning six miles every night, prove that our team gave it all they had through- out the season. This was a rebuilding year at Libe r - ty since there were onlyfour seniors on the team this year. They were Len Shaw, Dana Martin, Mike Marcinkow- ski, and Noel Garrison. Three un- de rclas smen were among our topfive runners. Roger Cole, Randy Dehart, and Dave Griffith will be back to lead the team next year.

The Junior Varsity Basketball team had an outstanding season this year. The tall, fast starting line, with a strong bench backing them up, ended the season with a 17-1 record. Their only defeat came at the hands of the Morgan Junior Varsity. The steady scoring of Ken Fitch and Phil Labney, along with the backboard strength of Craig Martin led Coach Smith ' s team to the best record that any Liberty Junior Varsity has ever had. Mr. Smith has done a fine job pre- paring these boys for the varsity po- sitions they will be moving up to in the following years. 42 KNEELING, left to right: D. Martin, B. Morgan, Coach ski, R.

On the sixth challenge we lost to Boone Grove by 3 points. However we won it back in one of the biggest upsets of the year. We beat Hebron by 2 points, to give them their only conference loss and to regain the keg. Ending their 24 game conference victory streak. But we lost it again. This time to Morgan.

AND AGAINST HEBRON HIGHLIGHT YEAR. Bill Morgan leads a fast break against Jackson in the North County tourney. UNDER COACH SMITH’S GUIDANCE, THE LIBERTY TRACK The track team, this year, had an excellent season. With many Senior s returning from the previous year, there was no problem finding partici- pants for each event. Liberty did very well against Porter County schools, but didn ' t fare so well against the schools from our neigh- boring Counties. For example, we defeated Wheeler, Kouts, Jackson, and Boone Grove; we were beaten by Westville and River F orest. At the Hebron Invitational, we finished third in our division. In the Porter County Track Meet, Liberty won third place again, being beaten by Hebron and Kouts . This year, we had two boys from Liberty who represented our school at the regional track Meet. They were Noel Garison and Dave Siewert. Noel participated in the High Jump and Dave took part in the Pole Vault. 48 TEAM SPRINTS ITS WAY TO A SUCCESSFUL SEASON 49 % Westville . . . 63 1 2 Kouts 49 Wheeler 0 Wanatah . . . . 41 1 2 Boone Grove .... 47 Wheeler 19 Liberty . ... 62 1 2 Liberty . 53 Liberty . 60 Liberty . . . . 67 1 2 Liberty . 62 Liberty . 90 Wheeler 3 River Forest. ... 84 Hebron Invitational Relay Liberty placed Third in the White Division P.

Under the supervision and spon- sorshipofMr. Hogan, Liberty Town- ship High School this past year or- ganized its first Gun Club. Seven per sons helped start and continue the organization.

The officers, which were Mike Marcinkowski, President; Bill Mor- gan, Vice President; Noel Garrison, Treasurer; and Doug Morthland , Secretary were chosen at the first meeting. Though the meetings were not always fruitful there were many laughs and much merriment for all the members. There were a few new members this year. They earned their letters and automatically became eligible for membership. They were relieved to discover that there was no initiation this year. For the Carnival the Lettermen ' s Club decided to try a new innovation. Instead of the usual game of throw- ing a dart at a balloon, they threw the balloon at the darts. This idea proved to be a very worthwhile ven- ture money wise. 53 % 54 MUSIC LIBERTY ' S BIGGEST CHORUS IN YEARS - AT ITS BEST. The chorus this year has been the biggest and the best ever. The students in the Cho- rus have worked hard and ac- complished much. This year Noel Garrison served as Pre si- dent, Janice Hansen as Vice President, and Diane Link as Sec retary . The Chorus received a second rating at the district contest, and the different groups at Solo and Ensemble contest received one first and two second rat- ings. They worked very hard to present The Death of Vaude- ville for the Porter County P. T. A. and the high school. Two weeks before the end of school, each Chorus member, along with many non-Chorus students, performed The Wi- zard of Oz for the community. Our new atage and hard work made this one of the best plays ever given at Liberty. 56 BETA GAMMA LAMBDA COMPLETES FIRST SUCCESSFUL YEAR. Beta Gamma Lambda had its first active year which started this fall. After the new officers were elected the club settled to the problems that face all new clubs. One of the first problems was the matter of an initia- tion. A Committee was appointed and plans for a spring initiation began. The membership of the Beta Gamma Lambda is open to all high school students who have earned a letter in concert band, chorus, or lionettes. Also there are honorary member- ships which are given to persons who gave aid to the music organizations in some way but have not earned a letter. The purpose of this organiza- tion is to promote the interest of music in the school and community. Possibilities of inviting bands and choruses for assemblies are now being studied.

For years Liberty has had mixed vocal ensembles, but the Belles and Beaux were organized three years ago. This group is comprised of eight to sixteen vocalists including Soprano, Alto, Tenor, andBass, proportionately. Each year they perform at district conte st (this year our belles and beaux received a se- cond) and at Choral or sometimes Band Concerts here at Liberty. During this year the B e 1 1 e s and Beaux have performed for outside organizations and banquets such as at Marie ' s Restaurant for the Lion ' s Club of Valparaiso and the Women ' s Club of Valparaiso.

This year the music department enjoyed another box-office success. The Wizard of Oz , a play that has enchanted au- diences for many years, was presented to an audience of 7 00 people on opening night. Dorothy Gale, the fiary-tale heroine from Kansas, was played by Feme Wiemer. Her three comical side-kicks on her trip to Oz were Scarecrow, Noel Garrison; Tin Wood- man, Russell Griffith and the Cowardly Lion, Craig Martin. The Orchestra was composed of select band members. Mr. Vance, in charge of ticket sales, was able to distribute over 500 tickets to students for advance sale. Mr. Wood, make-up director, began working at 5:3 0 in order to supervise the make-up of the very large cast by 8:00. Due to the many activities and responsi- bilities of the music department, much of the preparatory work had to be done within one week of the fir st performance. Massive flats were constructed and painted, lighting had to be installed by the students, teachers, and advisors, and costumes had to be completed all by opening night. 64 THE ENCHANTMENT OF THE WONDERFUL LAND OF OZ. 65 We Bitty UNDERCLASSMEN SECRETARIES WORK HARD TO MAKE OUR SCHOOL EFFICIENT Mrs. Wycoff, left, and Mrs. Nicholson, below, are a great aid to our well organized school system. They are the sources of stamps, staplers, paper clips, and other necessities. Answer- ing student questions, and the new intercom system are part of their daily tasks . They are a big help in keep- ing their respective employers, Mr.Siege- smund and Mr. Har- mon, going. They de- serve a commendation for the fine work they have done. Mr. Harlan A. Siegesmund has a real concern for students making right decisions and has a genuine interest in teachers ' welfare. Principal Siegesmund in noted for meticulous organi- zation and for keeping abreast of the latest development in the se- condary education field. Our principal ' s duties include organization of class schedules, supervision of instruction and administration. Supervision of student activities, teacher meet- ings, high school finances and the co-curricular program are his responsibilities, also. Trustee Esserman is endeav- oring to select the best possible staff, provide proper supervi- sion, and adapt the curriculum for the best growth for each in- dividual student, offering varied experiences in different subjects. FACULTY PROVIDES THE NECESSARY LEADERSHIP FOR THE The student-faculty relationship at Liberty is admirable. Throughout the year each teacher did his part to create a relaxed though essentially academic atmosphere. The men teachers participated in the annual intramurals, and put up a hard fight against the well-practiced seniors. The men and women teachers aided the students in planning the assembly, It ' s Academic. They supplied the questions and kept the -time. The faculty gave an extremely nice Christmas program for the students. The festivities included their singing of Holiday songs and eating delicious re- fre shments. Our guidance department staff was doubled when Mr. Hood came to Liber- ty last fall. This spring Mr. Sullivan replaced Coach Floyd. To Mr. Floyd and the other teachers who are leaving this summer, we, of the Senior Class would like to express our best wishes for their future success.

THE FRESHMEN FOUND THEIR FIRST YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL The Freshman Class, sponsored by Winogene Baker and Richard Vance, successfully started their four -year high school career. The Sadie Haw- kins Dance, which was their first high school dance, was very well attended. A bake sale at the annual carnival was their other money-making project. They ended the year by selecting their class jackets.

This year the minds of the Sophomore class were occupied with money, money, and more money. They began the year by doling out money for their class jackets. For weeks all that was seen around the halls were purple and white spots. Money still foremost in their minds, the Sophomores threw the Sadie Hawkins Dance at Halloween. The dance was a great success. It was enjoyed by all. Late in the year, Mr. Kingsley paid another visit to our school. He left with a smile of profit on his face. The Sophomore class purchased their rings. This was the climax of a wonderful, gay year.

The Junior class worked unselfishly to earn money for the Junior-Senior Prom. They sold popcorn and had several projects at the Carnival, including basketball free throws and refreshments on the new stage. All their efforts blossomed into one of the finest Proms Liberty has ever seen. Several class member s won outstanding honors this year. Russell Burrows was se- lected as Boys ' State delegate and John Stockwell was alternate. Janice Hanson was selected as Girls ' State delegate and Rose- mary Hoffman was alternate. Norma Spen- cer and Barbara Dillingham were very proud to be selected for the World Affairs Tour which tours Washington D. C. and New York City. They learned about International Re- lations and our democratic government.
