A special election was then called to elect the Board of Education. The board met and organ- ized on June 1, 1908. Edwin C. Young was elected the first president of the board. Immediately after the first organization meeting the board had frequent meetings to devise ways and means to establish and locate a high school and carry out the desire of the people as expressed by their verdict in voting for the proposition. Another election followed to vote on the pro- posals of purchasing a site, building a Township High School, and issuing a bond in the sum of 350,000.00 When the voters failed to locate any site by a majority vote the board passed a res- olution fixing the site in our present location. In December of 1908 plans were approved and the general contract was awarded for the sum of 334,929.00 Progress The building was occupied by the high school pupils about November 15, 1909, after the high school had been held for two months in the Opera House awaiting completion of the build- ing. These were the first of many years of pro- gress. Later in 1925 and 1930 we added what is now the gymnasium, swimming pool, victory tower, and our beautiful trophy room. In January of 1953 unit one of our third addition was opened. It included a spacious library seating 174 people, two large study halls seating 240 students, a boiler room, an electrical distribution center, and receiving and storage facilities. Finally in 1955 unit two of our third addition was opened. It included an agricultural department, a new cafe- teria, girl's gymnasium, new quarters for the music department, and a new auditorium accom- modating 1,200 persons which will eventually be completed. Our years of progress have been many and varied, they constitute an effort which has made Lockport High one of the finest in this area. li I ' r ,,- ' 5 lilllx I I fi 'Ak f me f 1 mix 1 . . 4 t x - U mu Hzlil EWU mm Q M M HIUHLI H IIHHU ELL ij E I l Z f 2... ...... -- . 2 ' 'T Over twenty-four years ago a teacher of the old school became a member of the Lockport Township High School faculty. Through his inform- al style of teaching, Mi. Johnsonius soon became a familiar personality. The career of Mr. Johnsonius has been varied. He has taught nearly every subject in the curricu- lum, and also spent some time coaching a basket- ball team at Lewisburg, Tennessee. He hails from Paris, Tennessee, and was graduated from Paris High School and Cumberland University. After teaching for a few years, Mr. .lohnsonius served in the Army during World War I and was stationed in France. When he returned to civilian life, he continued his teaching until 'l930. Then he contin- ued his studies at the University of Chicago where he received his Master's degree. Dedication It was at this point that Mr. Johnsonius began a long and successful association with Lockport Township High School until his retirement last year. During the seventeen years he coached the junior and senior plays and the Christmas pro- grams, he gave willingly of his time and talents. In addition to his many activities, Mr. Johnsonius still found time for his hobby of raising prize glad- ioli. When asked what he intended to do in the future, There just ain't enough time for me to do all the nothing I want to do. For his unfaltering service to our school and continued efforts to guide students on the road to success, we dedicate this annual to Mr. John- sonius. We wish him immeasurable happiness for the future. 7 LOCK TCJLT Richard Bischoff ..... ,... C o-edilor Simone Vaught ...,.....i..................... ....

Mai ' I ng..- , 3 1, V v Cur Superintendent Upon announcing his ambition of running for the State Legislature, Mr. Louis F. Bottino's re- signation as superintendent of L.T.H.S. was re- luctantly accepted by the school board. His re- signation brought to a close four years of very progressive activity at L.T.H.S. During Mr. Bot.tino's administration further steps in education were instituted because of the expansion of our school. Realizing the great need for scientific and mathematical knowledge Mr. Bottino was instrumental in widening the curriculum in this direction. The new addition tended to suggest the need for improvements in the old building. Classrooms gained new in- terest with better lighting, fresh paint, and new furniture where needed. Also during this time a better method of keeping student records came into use, along with a new guidance program. Mr. Bottino has been very active not only at L.TlH.S. but throughout the community. At pre- sent he is the member of several professional and community organizations such as the Amer- ican Legion, Royal Order of Moose, and John Ol- son Post of Lockport. Mr. Bottino's primary interest has always been in the field of education, but he has long had the desire to serve his community to a greater extent. This desire prompted him to enter his name on the Republican ticket for the legisla- ture of Illinois. Through his unfailing efforts for the advance- ment of our school, Mr. Louis F. Bottino will always be remembered as an outstanding indi- vidual during the growth and expansion of L.T.H.S. BOARD OP EDUCATION Ioseph Boluttmo Harold Schmitz.

Throughout our high school days the office personnel have helped us in countless ways. They have always kept things running smoothly for students and faculty alike. We appreciate their unfailing assistance and salute them for their con- scientiousness and wonderful patience. Esther Geddes is the secretary to the superin- tendentg Lois Manthy handles activity accounts and the bookstore, Margaret Shepherd is our registrar and attendance secretaryg and Janet Paul does general office work and operates the new switch- board. Of equal importance in keeping the school run- ning smoothly is the maintenance staff. The people behind the scenes of this staff are Dominick Shulla, supervisor of maintenance, Joseph Kucera, operating engineer and maintenance, and Richard Longhini, mechanical maintenance and repairs. The mainten- ance assistants are Mrs. Frances Ayers, Joseph Bren- nan, John Finco, Clarence Johnson, Alex Munday, Peter Piazza, and Kenneth Strong. Their many and varied tasks keep them busy day and night trying to keep the building clean and in good condition. As the school increases in size, so do their problems of maintenance.

Lynch, hoard secretary, dictates in the new board office. Personnel Our very capable cafeteria staff makes sure that the faculty and some 600 L.T.H.S. students are properly fed. This remarkable feat has been accomplished under the guidance of Mrs. Marion K. Morrison, faculty manager, and Mrs. Hazel Adamson, assistant manager. Under the careful supervision of Mr. John Gahala every noon, things are kept under control. Especially novel this year is the use of our new cafeteria. It is furnished with modern, efficient equipment. We have enjoyed using the cafeteria and are grateful to the cafeteria staff who do extra Work by preparing food for our teams and for the junior-senior picnic. The health room, where all the headaches, stomach-aches, and other minor illnesses are treated, is handled by Mrs. Nellie Fisher, She must. be on hand to try to make the students comfortable when they are not well enough to attend classes. Through the home-nursing course, taught by Miss Barbara Polyak, many junior and senior girls learn the fundamentals of caring for the Sick' Miss Barbara Polyak and Mrs. Nellie Fisher apply a heat pad to the arm of Ioan M.

Since then We have passed the terror- izing experiences of freshmen, suffered the less painful pangs of sophomoritis, accepted cheerfully the responsibilities of juniors and now, at last-we are seniors! Great changes have occured since that me- morable day in '52, when we met as fresh- men. Sod has been broken for the laying of new cornerstones. With larger quarters have come new faces among the faculty and ad- ditional courses in the curriculum. These are the marks of progress. Although we have diminished somewhat in numbers, we have gained strength in all the activities found at, L.T.H.S, The choosing of invitations and the measuring for caps and gowns, the presentation of our senior class play Stage Door, and the final participation in the various annual programs served to re- mind us that we would soon be leaving the halls of L.T.H.S. As a climax to our year of social activities we anticipate the Junior- Senior Prom which causes a flash back in our minds as we recall Manhattan Moods. With the passing of the class of '56 goes the relief of the faculty, the horror of the juniors, the protector of the sophomores, and the ideal of the freshmen. Soon we must leave Lockport High, and we shall go forth feeling that we owe more to our Alma Mater than we can possibly express. What will we do in the game of life? 22 SENIOR OFFICERS: Miss Goerz, chairman: Edward Gray. vice-president: luck Ccxrrolo, president: Nancy Herman, treasur- er: Pu! Cunico. secretary.

Here students are working on one of the many projects done in class. A very successful monitor system was initiated this year. Two of these monitors are conversing. ln auto shop these students are putting in and taking out parts of a truck. This is just one oi many such operations. Senior science is a new course this year. Here students are taking part in a class discussion about static electricity. Chemistry students are making another startling discovery in the chem lab. Calculus students are being given instruction about the use of the slide rule, a very useful instrument in mathematics. Something new in the l..T.H.S. gym this year was donkey basketball. Two of the cheerleaders are riding one of the donkeys used in that game. A very shocking experience was had by many of Mr. Pryor's physics students when they were ope- rating the static electricity machine. One has jus! received such a shock. A banquet was given in honor ot the upper ten per cent of the senior class. As you can well see. all are having a very good time. Working the mimeograph machine are L.T.l-1.5, girls who intend to go into secreterial work. 34 i ss .7 me 1-'M l Iuniors Assume Responsibilities We have passed from being underclassmcn to upperclassmeng and we hope from being fol- lowers into leaders. Upon us lies more respon- sibility than we have ever before known. We are looking ahead to the tasks which lie before us as thc leaders of the school. Some of us have already assumed great re- sponsibility. We are proud of having juniors as captain of the basketball team. captain of the cheerleaders, president of F.T.A., secretary of G.A.A., and also two outstanding orators who received honors in the V.O.D. and the American Legion Oratorical Contest. As the school has been building, so too have we advanced. We have seen two new additions to our school come into being while we have been getting the fundamentals of the education. which are to prepare us for college and other walks of life. To two delighted audiences we presented something new in high school theatre. Our play, The Night of January 16th, was a court room scene, and two casts of capable juniors gave the scene a very realistic touch. We are very grate- ful to Mr. Tipler who directed it and helped make it such a success. The high light of our Christmas vacation was receiving our class rings. Our activities were many the second semester as we planned for the Junior Prom on May 5th, We also received the results of the junior tests which we took the first semester. The seniors gave to us a most memorable day when they treated us to a picnic, their last activity before graduation.

Sophomores Are Active This past year seemed to go so quickly that it hardly seems possible that when school starts again we'll be juniors. We felt like freshmen again on the first day of school with so many new classrooms and strange hallways to learn about. We felt that way until we saw freshmen struggling through the old hall- ways which we knew so well. But the year had plenty to keep us busy. At our first class meeting we elected Greg Brown, president: Ken Norton, vice-president: George Bobak, secretaryg and Terry Jensen, treasurer. In the fall the Sophomore class sponsored the L.T.H.S.

The jobs of selling pennants and pins and arranging the election for Homecoming king and queen were left to us. Many of our boys played on the varsity basketball, baseball, football, and wrestling teams: our girls were very active in their G.A.A. activities, and our two cheerleaders, Pat Drake and Jane Murray, were seen lead- ing cheers for many a Frosh-Soph game. Having had such a good year, and seeing our way clear in the year ahead, we're looking forward to being upperclassmen-Juniors. 43 Yhhh my fe if if 2' A I ai SWL me -1 PQ-- 2 if-1 W- 3 Q W 1 fm I , ggi? 5 'W , Q.. if Y J vi ' 4 .

We were quite surprised when we arrived. We found an entirely new school, so we thought. However, we were not alone in our feelings, for even the upperclassmen found certain dif- ficulties in finding their way around the school. lt was the first year the new section was in use. We found new classrooms, a new cafeteria, and band room in addition to new courses open to us. At first we were very uncertain as to our whereabouts. When it was time for lunch, no one was quite sure where to go, and it was finally decided to just follow the crowd. Soon we became a part of school life with its fun and responsibilities. Yet, we felt very privileged because we were allowed to partici- pate in so many of the school activities. Members of our class were able to assist on the Lock and Times staffs. We even had our own band and Chorus. Early in the year the class officers were elected. They were: Jerry Puis, presidentg Wayne Peterson, vice- president, Bill Peterson, secretaryg Kathie Bier, treasurer. Will we ever forget the leap year dance. Woman's World? We were so excited, es- pecially the girls. lt was leap year and thc girls had an opportunity to invite those upper- class boys, whom they admired so much. Dur- ing the second semester some of our class- mates starred in three one-act plays. Yet this year also had with the privileges certain responsibilities. For the first time members of our class became monitors. We soon found that we had to do homework and had to obey the rules of our school. Most of us can remember spending some of our time after school with Mr. Gahala during ninth period. But soon we became acous- tomed to school life and really became a part of it. . susAN AI-IRAMS I , V . . . V M IOI-IN ADELMAN .eff ' KL' , ,,f ' 3 .

Among the speakers of the evening was Dr. Leonard Roblee who was a member of the hoard of education when Mr. Smith was first superintendent here. Open House Through the co-operation of the co-chairmen, Mr. Sterling and Miss Emmons, and the members of the Student Council a very successful Open House was held on the evening of November 9. This ye-ar's annual observance of National Ed- ucation Week was dedicated to Mr. James Smith of Glendale, California, former superintendent of Lockport High. The program started in the gymnasium at 7:30 p.m. After the opening ceremonies, every- one thoroughly enjoyed the splendid musical in- terpretations of the High School Orchestra and Girls' Glee Club under the capable direction of Mr. Ernest Caneva. Following several short spee- ches by dist.inguished guests, Mr. Smith pre- sented the main address of the evening. It was interesting to note the emphasis Mr. Smith put on progress. The new section of our building which is being used for the first time this year speaks for itself as a Panorama of Progress. At the close of the program there was the visitation of classrooms directed by Mr. Sterling and lVIr. Pryor. At the same time a reception was help in the new cafeteria where refreshments were served. This was co-ordinated by Mrs. Mor- rison and Miss Emmons. Our 1955 Open House was a wonderful success. The public responded to the opportunity to visit L.T.H.S. The special dedication to Mr. Smith add- cd warmth and enthusiasm to this event. Mr. Iames Smith who was the honored guest and the main speaker at open house this year, is shown addressing the assembl- cd visitors.

Shown also in the picture are members of the student council who were in charge of this particular assembly. Pep Assemblies The pep assemblies this year, although not a great many in number, were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Each assembly was planned and executed by various L.T.H.S. organizations. A prominent figure in almost all of the assemblies was Val Gudac. His slapstick comedy kept the entire student body and faculty in gales of laughter. One outstanding assembly was the mixing together of a wonderful Porter stew by Chef Gudac. At all assemblies wonderful school spirit was exhibited by every L.T.H.S. student. Adding a great deal to the pep sessions was the presence of the L.T.H.S. pep band. A big thanks also goes to the cheerleaders for the magnificient job they did. Pep assemblies mean a lot not only to the athletes participating but also to the students who want to stand behind our teams and give them our full support.

Mrs. Fred Holt and Mrs. James Smith made a wise choice when they awarded first place to the junior classes float of a lifelike, animated skunk. Class homerooms also entered several floats and Mr. Snyder's homeroom 228 received second place as the juniors again showed their creative skill with a repre- sentation of a jack-in-the-box. Despite the encouragement of the floats, the team did not hatch a Victory or skunk Kankakee, but they fought hard, and no one felt too downhearted for the big Lock staff dance followed the game. Immediately preceding their kiss, Bill Burke and Carolyn Kijovvski were crowned king and queen by Ken Norton, presi- dent of the Sophomore class. We hope the Homecoming will be as successful next year. and perhaps we might even win the game. Ken Barone. Marian Adee, and Bucky Bush plan to celebrate the Home- coming with their own Home Cooking. The fermented float was dis- til1ed by the chorus. The Sophomore float hit a bull's-eye with its William Tell float, We Aim to Win. MN, MQ. The Iuniors Present A unique type of theater was presented to de- lighted audiences on November 18th and 19th by the Junior Class. The Night of January 16th was an extraordinary court room drama which follows American court procedure accurately, ma- king the play highly educational as well as enormously entertaining. This play differs from the ordinary in that it is a comedy drama with a very unusual ending. This was the first play directed by Mr. William Tipler at Lockport. Assisting Mr, Tipler was Barb Garson. As the curtain opens the court is ready to begin, but the Judge has not yet made his appearance. The prosecution and the defense are ready at their respective tables. Presently the prison matron brings in Karen Andre, the de- fendant. The unique feature of the play was the fact that the jury was composed of members of the audience who listened to the testimonies and then actually decided for themselves whether the defendant was or was not guilty of the murder of Bjorn Faulkner. The play itself con- sists of testimony given by various witnesses who were connected with the case. Outstanding performances were given by the individuals who played Mrs. John Hutchins, the janitor's wife who saw the murder, Magda Sven- son who was Bjorn Faulkner's housekeeper, La'r- ry Regan, a gangster, who loved Karen Andre and supposedly black mailed Bjorn Faulkner, and Roberta Van Renselaer, a night club dancer whose husband's body was substituted for Bjorn Faulkner. On both nights Karen Was found to be not guilty, but the case was so well presented that there was doubt in many people's minds as to her innocence.

The Seniors Present Edna Ferber's and George S. Kaufman's three- act comdy, Stage Door, was presented by the senior class on March 22 and 23. The play was directed by Mr. William Tipler, with Carolyn Kijowski as student director. The setting is a New York boarding house owned by Mrs. Orcutt where career-minded girls display their hopes and aspirations to be on stage. The plot revolves around Terry Randall, a ta- lented actress who tries very hard to find a job on stage, and when she does get one, she is soon without a job again, for the show in which she has a part closes. Her roommate, Jean, is given an offer to go to Hollywood, which she ac- cepts, and tries to persuade Terry to go, but Terry declines the offer. Terry has little success in obtaining a the- atrical job, so she gets a job as a clerk in a department store. Keith Burgess, her boyfriend, succumbs to the glamour of Hollywood by going there to write plays. When Terry sees him when he returns a year later, she is disappointed to find he has changed and therefore loses interest in him. David Kingsley, a motion-picture man who has taken a personal interest in her, comes to the rescue by giving her the lead in a play he planS to produce. Contrast in the play is provided by Bernice, a girl without talent but much determination, and Mrs, Orcutt, an elderly woman whose theatrical days are over only in reality. Interest is built by Kaye, who gives up in despair after many hard- ships, Louise who gets married, Jean, a beautiful girl but a mediocre actress who goes into pic- tures, and Keith Burgess, Terry's old beau and a playwright who goes Hollywood The cast, most parts of which were double- cast, included: Olga Brandt, Audrey Gosack, Con- nie Gutierrez, Mattie, Katie Barlow, Big Mary, Carol Alexander, Judy Gottry, Little Mary, Carol Michaelson, Peggy Carter, Madeleine, Virginia Buck, Mary Prueter, Judith, Barb Young, Dorlene Sample, Ann, Virginia Riley, Nahon Friscia, Kaye, Nancy Herman, Jean, Jeanne Bjorkman, Nancee Gannaway, Bobby, Saralea Paddock, Louise, Anna Mae Longhini, Eleanor Nystrom, Susan, Karen Sandstrom, Doris Vahle, Pat, Sara Jo Wierson, Carole Grikstas, Kendall, Candy Knut- son.

Holiday Programs Presented VETERANS DAY PROGRAM: Many patriotic organizations and citizens of the community along with the student body and faculty met in the gymnasium on November 9th for the Veterans Day Program. The United States Naval Reserve Unit from Joliet furnished a fine Color Guard for our ceremonies. The honorable Warren L. Wood, Representative of the General Assembly of the State of illinois, was the main speaker. After his interesting speech Mr. Wood directed the band in the playing of John Phillip Sousa's classic, Stars and Stripes Forever. Mr. E. C. Snyder, head of the Social Science Department and chairman of the program, presented a program of great interest to all. With the help of the boys from his history classes Mr. Snyder told of the many wars in which the U. S. participa- ted. After each narration a boy marched in wearing the military uniform of that time, while the band played fitting tunes for each entrance. After the playing of Taps Rev. Gilbert Bengtson gave the benediction. Veterans Day is truly a day to remember for on that day wc honor men who gave their lives so that we could breathe the air of freedom. program. II. Iudy Long.

CHRISTMAS DAY PROGRAM: There is a certain feeling in the air that comes only at Christmas and this Christmas was no exceptiong for, as we assembled in the auditorium, we sensed that holiday spirit. The first thing on the program was the reading of the Christ- mas story which was chronologically arranged from lsiah, Matthew, and Luke and given by three students. Next came a few Christmas carols from the chorus, under the direction oi' Mr. Caneva. Charlotte Grant read Christopher Morley's The Tree That Didn't Get Trimmed. After more carols by the chorus, one of the classics of all Christmas stories, The Littlest Angel, by Charles Tozwell, was read. LINCOLN DAY PROGRAM: This year's Lincoln Day Program consisted of two parts. The first part was a choralogue which is quite different from the other programs we have seen. The choralogue, directed by Miss Urban, was called Lincoln, The Lonely, The Great. The second part was a one act comedy, The Missing Link, which portrayed a modern-day adolescent whose experiences were similar to those of Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Snyder, with the help of the history students, presented this part of the program. s 73 it 2 J 1 W ,,-: 521 ,VQL T' K 1 It's A Woman's World On March third the student council spon- sored a leap year dance to prove that lt's a Woman's World. As the girls arrived in their attractive spring outfits, their escorts soon became aware of how much the world revolves around its women. The gymnasium was decorated with les- toons of balloons hanging from a false ceil- ing of paper. Dotting the walls were minia- ture world's. The bandstand occupied by Gene Victor's Orchestra was hung with paper and many balloons. After the crowning of the king, George Claussen, and queen, Marjean Martin, by Ken Barone, captain of the varsity basketball team, everyone had a wonderful time breaking the myriad of balloons which were found to be in every nook and cranny of the gyhi. Leap year comes only once every four years and all the girls decided it was quite an ex- perience io find themselves in the fellow's position, They all found out that it is hard to ask for a date, It must be intermission since everyone is keeping Sandy Rediehs and Arla Schroll so very busy handing out cups of cold punch. Apparently Gene Victor's orchestra is playing a very dreamy waltz as shown by the intent expressions seen on the laces of the dancers. In this picture the photographer not only caught some couples in the Grand March but also the balloons which were hung in festoons all over the gymnasium. A little while later everyone had a wonderful time breaking them. We see Stexe Platko looking on as George Claussen, king. kisses Marjean Martin. queen. at the student council dance.

Several couples appear to be enjoy- ing the luxury ot the park benches which constituted part of the Manhattan Moods decorations as they watch others who are enjoying the Grand March. ...M MANH1-XTTAN MOODS Girls in bouftant tormals and their escorts, who attended the Iunior-Senior Prom given for the class of 1955, were sur- rounded by the enchanting moods of Manhattan as they danced. During the Grand March. King Tom Broderick and Queen Ioan Alexander led the couples through Central Park where Tony Prince's orchestra was seated in the park bandstand. From there they could view Manhattan Harbor, Greenwich Village. and the intriguing Manhattan skyline. A huge tratiic light, which hung in the center of the gym, added the finishing touch to Manhattan Moods.

Band The band of L.T.H.S. has changed a lot since 1927 but that change has been for the better. Ably directed by Mr. Ernest O. Caneva since 1933 the band has continually turned in sterling performan- ces. In their annual spring concert which was hcld on March 11, the band showed their great versa- tility by playing such numbers as Verdi's Rigolet- to, Roger's Victory at Sea, and The Two Imps, a Cornet duet, which was played by Janet. Schu- mann and our own Bob Hill. Student participation in leadership capacities marked the keynote of the memorable concert. An outstanding event of the concerts for the past two years has been the appearance of an especially talented grade school musician. This year a very attractive young lady, Janet Schumann, from Central-Kelvin Grove Elementary Schools, made her appearance in A Trumpeter's Lullaby by Leroy Anderson. Mr. Caneva announced that next year another grade school student will be presented, but that students will in the future be chosen by a contest this is to be run among the grade school students. Mr. John L. Paynter, director of bands at North- western University, was the most prominent of the guest conductors at the concert. Ot.her guest direc- tors included: Mr. Robert Haddick, band director at Kelvin Grove Schoolg Mr. H. Tatroe, assistant to Mr. Canevag Miss Anna Mae Longhini who directed the combined band and chorus in the number, Tea For Two, and Steve Platko who directed the band in his own number Tone Poem-Resurrection. Mr. Caneva introduced Steve and congratulated him on the work which he has done. it bg The group has become so proficient in their work that they have been asked to appear many places. This past year they were asked to appear. in addition to many other places, at Northwestern University where they were very well received. In addition to many other activities, the band also sponsors an annual dance which is held at Christmas time. Each year the decorations are kept in the Christmas motif. The dance this year was called Kandy Kane Kappersf' A grand time was enjoyed by all. Mr. E. Caneva, L.T.l-LS. music department head, is shown going over some important work with Mr. H.

Chorus Not only the band at L.T.H,S. but also the chorus can be seen making great strides of progress. A select group of 40 chorus members and the orchestra, which provides fine music on many occasions, presented a program for the Tri-County Principals' Convention which was held at the Congress Hotel. They used such numbers as a Tribute to Rombergf' Roman- ian Rhapsoyf' and Night and Day. The group was extremely well received and com- ments such as: the voices were so mature, the orchestra added a great deal, a fine group of musicians, could be heard through- out the audience. lt was because of this per- formance that the chorus was invited to or- chestra hall in Chicago to hear the Augustana College Choir on April 16, The chorus, in their part of the spring con- cert, proved that they too are very versatile by doing such numbers as Tea for Two, and Musetta's Waltz Song from La Boheme, They also used a medley of tunes from the stage production Brigadoon. A highlight of the program was when the choir did the prison scene from ll Travatoref' The soloists were Sara Jo Wierson. Nancee Gannaway, Anna Mae Longhini, and Judy Eneix. The Freshman chorus. though it works pri- marily on basic music principles, can turn out some very fine music and there is a great deal of friendly rivalry between the two choruses. The members of the Freshman chorus all look forward to the day when they will move up to the Senior group. 86 Chorus ofificers: Kent Nordenberg, treasurer: Terry Logan secretary: Sara Jo Wierson, president: George Bush, vice- president.

I unior Red Cross Among the many organizations at L.T,H.S.. the .lunior Red Cross is one ot' the most active as Well as representative. Delegates are chosen from each homeroom. However. anyone who wishes may attend meetings and participate in activities. Members were very active this year, carrying out a tull schedule of activities. Among these was making flexahexapons for hospitals in the vicinity. Entertainment committtees. consisting of members of the student body: were also sent torrnany of the hos- pitals. orphans' homes and other institutions in Will County. Early last fall the Junior Red Cross sponsored a membership drive, At this time homeroom representatives asked the students to contribute to the drive and thus become members. In the spring the Junior Red Cross collected pencils, combs. crayons. and soap which they put in gift boxes. These boxes were to be sent overseas. Miss O'Brien directed the activities of the organization, and during' her absence Mrs. Buckley carried on the work oi' the group. 95 Shown here are three able student leaders of Red Cross: Sue Ayers. secretary: Ieanne Bjorkman. president: Candy Knutson, vice- president.

Mr. Pryor is the club sponsor. Because of its large membership, the coun- cil was divided into the steering, welfare, social, program, and leadership and training committees to allow it to function smoothly. During the year the council was responsible for the planning of the pep sessions, assem- blies, and the annual open house. Members were also in charge of the sale of used books at the beginning of the school year, and during the football and basketball seasons they worked in the concession stand at ath- letic events. As a part of the Christmas fes- tivities, decorations were placed about the school. Members sorted and delivered Christ- mas cards that were deposited in a mail box located in the main hall. A monitor system was established during the second semester. ln March a Clean-up Campaign was conducted to encourage stu- dents to take more pride in their school. No year would be complete without the annual Student Council Dance. This year it was a Leap Year Dance entitled lt's a Wo- man's World. A Pink and Charcoal Bop Hop was held during the first semester and another late in April. Student Council members have had a very busy and successful year. Virginia Riley.

The office assistants who aid the staff by typing, picking up absence lists, and performing other duties are: Ken Spangler. Sue Rowley, Steve Iohnson. and Evelyn Krohn. Students The student help in the library, officc. and cafeteria is important not only to the staffs but to the student aids as well, for it gives the students the opportunity to learn the operation of the respective groups. In the office the aids collect the morning absent sheets and make telephone calls to the homes of the absentees. The cafeteria aids, the largest group of student assistants, help prepare the food. pass it out to the students, and Wash the dishes. The monitors in the cafeteria and the cashiers are also a part of this group. The third group of assistants is the library aids who work in the library during their free period. Their duties consist of checking out books, taking attendance, and taking care of the library passes. Through the efforts of these groups much Work is accomplished, and they perform a val- uable service to the school. STUDENT LIBRARIANS - Third row: Ioe Zolla, Peggy wells, Carol Sue Iohnson.

This is true because only members of this club are permitted to operate any of the school's pro- jection equipment. As the enrollment of the school increased this year, so did the respon- sibility of this club. However, its work was made easier because three new sound projec- tors and other new projection equipment was purchased by the school. Last September, when the club was organ- ized, cards were issued to all members, and any one who was to operate any of this equipment must have had such a card. At the various meetings during the year, Dr. Paul Jorgensen, the sponsor, explained the opera- tion of the equipment. Besides instruction, members would demonstrate their skill in the operation of any one piece of equipment. A member, having successfully passed this examination, would then have this signified on the card which he had received earlier in the year. In this way, the equipment was capably handled. G.A.A. Interests Many The ever increasing enrollment at L.T.H.S. has DTD- vided a greater interest in the activities of the G.A.A. To retain this interest G.A.A. has had to expand their program to an even greater degree than that of previ- ous years. This year's sponsors. Miss Olson, Miss Weick, and Mrs. Anderson, have spent many long hours instructing and encouraging the girls in worth- while activities. The time was well spent, however, be- cause G.A.A. gave the girls a chance to prove their good sportsmanship as well as develop their character. As an outlet for our sports-minded girls, the G.A.A. offers activities the year around. At the beginning ol' the school year tennis, volleyball, and riding occurred. Throughout the winter months the girls were kept busy with basketball, bowling, and life-saving. The last ae- iiviiics are golf and tumbling which are held in the last months of school. As a reward for-their endeavors various awards are received by the girls. For each hour that a girl par- ticipates in an activity she receives 3 points. To obtain the first award, which is a pin. 24 points are neces- sary. Two local awards which require 75 and 150 points are a small L and a larger L with G.A.A. im- printed on it. The letter I, the first state award, takes 225 points for those receiving it. The most sought- atter and the hardest to obtain is the second state award, an emblem in the shape of Illinois which re- quires SOO points. The points arc carried over from year to year and if a girl just misses an award one year she has the opportunity to receive her award the following year. At the end oi' the year these awards are presented at the annual Mother and Daughter tea. Here also the new officers are announced. G.A.A.

For sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors, the activity was a continuance of one that they had especially enjoyed. For the freshmen who bowled the second semester it was an introduction to a wonderful sport. The freshmen, some of whom had never bowled before, could be seen experimenting with various balls. The bowl- ing alleys' purchase of several 10-pound balls proved very helpful to many. As the end of the semester approached, everyone began to realize how mlch her game had improved, es- pecially when she rolled so many more strikes!! Telegraphic Bowling Team: Sharon Bewersdorf.

Activities G.A.A. activities were handled a little differently this year. With the new girl's gym available every even- ing after school and two new instruc- tors the organization was able to in- crease its program. One addition which proved highly exciting was the all-star basketball tournament. Again, as in past years our telegraphic bowling tournament team was outstanding. Golf and rid- ing were enjoyed very much by the seniors. Our future Patty Bergs had six lessons, five in the gym and one at Cog Hill. Riding became available for the first time this year during both semesters. Highlighting the year was the G. A. A. Mother-Daughter Tea which was held for the first time in the new cafeteria.

Water Safety Water safety is a G.A.A, activity which re- quires the participants to exert a great deal of effort. In order to even be considered for the course the girls have to swim twenty-two con- secutive lengths. During the course the girls were taught by Mrs. Anderson and her assistants: Jeanne Bjork- man, Nancee Gannaway, Dorlene Sample, and Bette Thomas. The girls, in addition to learning many holds and carries, were also taught how to give artificial respiration and first aid. All of the girls who passed their practical and written exam received Senior Life Saving Badges except those who were under sixteen and they received Junior Life Saving Badges. Buck row: Sue Ayers.

Grid Season VARSITY: The Porter gridders, under the guidance of Coaches Cisler and Kappmeyer, accomplished a major objective in their '55 campaign. Despite their unimpressive record 62-61, the season was far from disappointing, for the squad, made up primarily of underclassmen, acquired valuable experience to carry with them into the South Suburban League during the 1956 season. The team showed signs of brilliance at times, but inexperience coupled with stern opposition proved too great a handicap to overcome.

Wrestling The youth movement which has hevn taking over the sports here at Lockport, has definitely tak- en over the wrestling team. The team was made up of all freshmen and sophomores except for the co-captains. The team, , though inexperienced, has really shown to their more experienced and stronger opponents the truth in the old saying the bigger they are the harder they fall. Useing speed and the many holds taught to them by Mr. Walters. the boys showed that they could really hold their own. In coming years these underclassmen are sure to make Lockport a wrest- ling power. Shephggck WWI TNYY IBHSGHI Greg Comer. Iim Anderson. Louis Darin.

Varsity Basketball The youth movement, which swept over Lockport athletics this year, can definitely be carried over to the basketball team, for the squad was com- posed entirely of underclassmen. The two freshmen, eight sophomores and four juniors will, of course, be back for another try next year. The team showed brilliantly at times but lacked the one outstanding attribute of a fine team - self-confidence. However, one major objective ac- complished by Coach Van Deven's boys was the winning of a third straight trophy at the Pontiac Holiday Tournament. Toward the end of the season, they began to find themselves and im- proved steadily. If this improvement continues they should be hard to stop next year.

Frosh-Soph Basketball The Lockport Portermites, coached by Mr. Gornik, suffered one of their most dismal and disappointing seasons in many years. But they were a young team with great promise as shown by their winning of the Carl Sandburg Frosh-Soph Tournament at the end of regular season play. Their poor record t2-187 Could Well be at- tributed to the fact that ten underclassmen were promoted to the varsity as part of a sweeping youth movement in all athletics. The players, showing fine spirit and determin- ation throughout the season, never stopped trying and always gave a fine account ol themselves, Although the year was unimp1'es- sive as far as statistics are concerned, the sportsmanship and teamwork gained during the season will stay with them in their future years.

The 20 players, who were hand- picked by Mr. Kappmeyer, gave their very best even under the most disappointing con- ditions. Cold weather and other setbacks hampered the team in early practices, but it reached its peak by rnidseason, and developed into a potentially strong team for next year. Although there were but three returning regulars, the team was bolstered by several competent juniors and some very promising underclassmen. The emphasis this year was on speed and defense, but hitting was not neglected in the least. 116 April April April April May May May May May May May VARSITY BASEBALL SCHEDULE 11-19 Blue Island Joliet Twp.

Not pictured-Richard Bischoll Golf, Tennis cmd Track GOLF This was a building yearn as far as Coach Hill and his Lockport golf team was concernedg for there were only two seniors, Rich Bischoff and George Denick, on the twenty-one man squad. However, the team had good balance and was bolstered by four returning varsity lettermen and two frosh- Soph lettermen, as well as many outstanding freshmen, led by Steve Partak, who showed great potential as a varsity competitor. Some of the best teams in the state provided tht- compe- tition for the Porter golfers this year, including Leyden, win- ner of S.S.L, the last two years and third in state last year. Considering the fine showing the young Porters made this year, Coach Hill may look to the future with great on- thusiasm. TENNIS J The tennis team of L.T.H.S. was coached for the first time hy Mr. Walters. The team, very handicapped because of the loss of returning lettermen, was weak and inexperi- enced. Even though the loss was great. Mr. Walter instilled Back row: Ken Dombroviak- manager. Tom Hartford, Ed Termuende. Michael Routh. Front row: Gerald Gorecki, Burt Nelson.

TRACK Around the middle of March the familiar sound of running was heard in the school hall- ways signifying that the track season was once more under way, At the first practice session Coach Rogers found the largest num- bers of aspirants since he has been in charge of the team, The large turnout showed thc enthusiasm felt for the sport. As in other sports, it was basically a young team. On the varsity level there were four sophomores promoted from the frosh- soph, and only six seniors were on the team. Although there was only one returning varsity letterman, this fact was offset by the return of several capable juniors who were on the frosh-soph the previous season. The season ended successfully with the South Suburban Conference Meet on May 23. Lee Idmes, sophomore track star. shows his ability in the pole vault during a track practice session. Charlie Travis. one of the underclussrxien on the varsity track team, clears the bar with ease while competing in the high jump.

The team this year broke even by topping Argo twice, and Leyden once, but lost to Elgin, Thornton Fractional and Thornton of Harvey. To end the season the Porters took third in the South Surburban Con- ference, While the Wildcats of Thornton of Harvey again took first and Thornton Frac- tional took second. The team, which loses six regulars this year, Will be bolstered next year by the many promising freshmen and sophomores, who should make a good showing for Lockport.
