Answer:

L. Lyons Company

Correct Journal Entry

Debit L.Lyons, Drawings $100

Credit Cash $100

To record the cash withdrawn by L. Lyons for personal use.

Explanation:

When the owner, L. Lyons, withdraws cash for personal use, it reduces the owner's equity interest in the business.  Cash as an asset is also reduced by the same amount.  Therefore, the double entry should be a debit to the Owner's Capital account (here represented by Drawings) and a credit to the Cash account.
