- Description:
- This collection contains one scrapbook, compiled by Louis "Louie" E. Van Blaricom of Lansing, concerning area athletics and other miscellaneous topics. The majority of the scrapbook is newspaper clippings dating from about 1922 to 1923, related to Lansing High School and Michigan Agricultural College football. Baseball teams from various locations are also a subject of the clippings in the book, and there is memorabilia such as banquet programs or season pass tickets for sports events as well. The back end papers have been covered with pasted-in calling cards. There are also loose items on the theme of Halloween (an illustrated napkin and small decorative items), football schedule cards, membership in the Lansing High School Sports Association cards, and a football banquet ticket. Van Blaricom was born in about 1904 and attended the Lansing High School. In the 1923 "Oracle" yearbook he is pictured as a member of the Senior B class of 1922-1923, and his affiliations included Football '22 (the Reserve team), Baseball '23 (as Pitcher), Science Club '23, and Class Baseball '22. His portrait from the 1923 yearbook is included here. Due to the fragility of the scrapbook, it has not been digitized. Contact the library for more information.

- Description:
- Built in 1918 and 1941. Photos are a part of the "Visual Views of the Elementary Schools in the Lansing School District" project of the Lansing Area Community Resources Workshop in cooperation with Michigan State University. It was compiled by Priscilla L. Shaver who was a teacher at Lewton School. The director was Frances B. Schneider. Each included school has a photo of the school building and playground. The album was created to aid students who were being moved to new schools in the hopes that they could use it to know where their new school was and what it would look like. Priscilla Shaver attended the 1971 Lansing Area Community Resources Workshop to aid in assembling this project.
