MISS THORA MCCORKLE GANO TUBB Civics American History American History Junior Sponsor Senior Sponsor Social Studies Realizing that our country should be better pre- pared for a democratic way of life, L. H. S. students are given ample studies of the history of our state, nation, and world. If we are to be future leaders or citizens of a free and democratic nation, we must be qualified and trained to realize past problems, to prevent the same mistakes in our future, and to pre- serve our future lives, liberties, property and govern- ment.

BARLOW JOHNNIE HICKMAN World History Economics American History Senior Sponsor Sophomore Sponsor Music Developing musical abilities in our students is only part of the work of Levelland's music depart- ment. A member of band or chorus will develop group co-operation, responsibility, promptness, obedience, and self-confidence. Our music de- partment not only serves the school and community with music, but they also keep our school spirit soaring high. MR. WOODS EDMOND J.
