Board of Education r 'anizes Citizens' Study Group The Board of Education organized a citizens' study group for the purpose of having local citizens make an intensive study of the Littlefield School System. The study was to supply the board with a recommended program for improvement. Dr. Morris Wallace, head of the Department of Education for Texas Technological College acted as consultant. Some 36 people formed a study committee, which was divided into four sub- committees, so that the smallest detail would not be over- looked. Some six months of study was culminated with a sum- mation of recommendations. ln turn, the board set about to make finances available for the improved program. High points among the recommenda- tions included increased personnel, increased salaries, and im- proved physical facilities with emphasis on remodeling the heat- ing system for both the iunior high and primary buildings. Members of the seven-man Board of Education serve on a gratis basis for an elected three-year term. Regular meetings are held monthly in the office of the tax assessor-collector. Meetings are open to the public. lLeftb Bryon Douglass, 1959-60 president of the Board of Education, flllgltil A group of board members were pleased to hear of the intense interest shown by the Citizens' Study Commit- tee, fl. to r.l Byron Douglass, Dr, Albert Perkins, Carl Keeling.

RALPH SCHILLING signs a letter which his secretary has iust completed. In his sixth year as Superintendent of Littlefield Public Schools, Dr. Schilling worked tirelessly toward building a better school system. He attacked small details with the same vigor as with matters of broad scope. Were it patron, teacher, or scholar who brought a problem, Dr. Schilling always had the Time. Ham radio claims much of his spare time, but even that went begging in the fall-he built a new home at HO Twentieth Street. Civic affairs, too, cut deeply into spare hours, This year he served on the Executive Commission of the West Texas School Study Council and as vice-president of the West Texas Audio-Visual Cooperative. The local scene found him as chair- man of the Salvation Army Advisory Committee and of the ad- vance gifts phase of the United Fund.

He maintains a testing program for high school students to guide them in course selections and in occupa- tion choices, He assists with high school schedule problems, keeps records on some 2000 students, and spends innumerable hours in individual guidance consultation. His biggest headache is to find a student who refuses to follow advice from an adult who is sincerely trying to help him. Mr. Brune attended Texas University and Texas Technological College and holds both B.S. and M.A. degrees. GLENN D, REEVES, Principal, finishes off his lunch with a good cold drink.

Longshore, of the First Baptist Church, and a high school trio, the Tri-Los. CPictured, Circlet Councilmen, Jerry Koller and De Pierce, discuss plans for boost- ing Morning Watch attendance. The Wildcat Band, for The second time in four years, was selected to represent district 1-AAA at the Texas State Fair in Dallas on October T2-14. Here band members who were seniors, per- formed for the second time with other top bands of the state. A week-end bake sale helped to pro- vide funds for the trip. New collars for every member and new ma- iorette uniforms added to the striking appearance of these high-steppers as they staged various half- time shows and captured second place in the Lubbock South Plains Fair parade. On a frigid 5th of December, the 102-member band concluded Band Journeys to marching season by taking its ninth consecutive First Division in the annual Interscholastic League marching contest. Attention turned, in the winter months, to con- cert music. The calendar included public perform- ances in both a winter and a spring concert. Five months of intensive practice, spurred on by a special clinic early in April, was directed toward developing another sweepstakes winner for Spring Contest on April 29-30. A full and exciting year ended for the Wildcat Band with the traditional formal dinner in mid- May. exas tate Farr 1959-60 Wildcat Band Assumes Concert Pose.

Hosts District Banquet and i weetlteart Contest The Future Farmers of America of L.H.S. played hosts to the district banquet and sweetheart contest on De- cember 3, 1959 and staged a father-son banquet on April 26. The organization encourages boys to become established in farming and to adhere to the national motto, Learning to do, doing to learn, learning to live, living to serve. The amount of money a boy earns in agricultural production classifies him as a Greenhand, Chapter Farmer, Lone Star Farmer, or American Farmer. The local chapter proposes to develop leadership, cooperation, and good citizenship in agricultural fields. In the area of leadership locally trained teams com- peted in Senior Chapter Conducting, in Junior Chapter Conducting, in F.F.A. Quiz, and in Radio Broadcasting. Citizenship and cooperation were stressed in the train- ing of iudging teams. These teams competed in iudg- ing livestock, dairy cattle, poultry, cotton, dairy prod- ucts, crops and land. F.F.A. foundation awards were distributed in the fields of dairy farming, farm electrification, farm me- chanics, farm safety, soil and water management, public speaking, and star farming. The local Chamber of Com- merce named, on a monthly basis, an outstanding jun- ior boy and an outstanding senior boy, and presented an award to the Outstanding boy of the year. Members attended the Amarillo Fat Stock Show and exhibited livestock in show at Plainview, Amarillo, Lub- bock, and Littlefield. ln February, junior and senior boys attended the San Antonio Fat Stock Show.

Third period finds them in regu- larly scheduled iournalism class in room 207. The organization publishes The Skat, which has complete coverage of L.H.S. news, as a part of the Sunday edition of the local newspaper. Each member writes articles varying from fea- ture stories and editorials to regular news items, and then feels a tingle ot pride to see his words in print. Mr. Bill Turner, local news- paper editor and associate publisher, instructed the iournalism class and sponsored the Press Club.

This set of books and a new set of American History references, ADAMS, LINCOLN AND LEE were added to the 203 reference books already on library shelves. Library club members, eleven in all, work on a voluntary basis to staff the L.H.S. library. Working under the direction of Mrs. Burks, they check books out and in, and work incessant- ly with indexing, cataloging, patching, and shelving. Each mem- ber makes it his business to acquaint himself with available books and periodicals so that he can be ready with suggestions for good reading. As a special service the club prepares a school news scrapbook. The 1959-60 cover is made of wood and features a Wildcat done in woodburning. Plans were made throughout the year to send delegates to the district Teen Age Library Association in Pampa and to the state meeting in Hous- ton.

The student assistant pro- gram embraces individual faculty assistants and office personnel who work on a voluntary basis. Students who work in offices keep permanent record cards up to date, answer telephones, run errands, answer questions by the dozen, and perform other rou- tine tasks. Faculty assistants record and file papers, act as labora- tory assistants, grade some papers, and gather and assimilate in- structional materials for special class activities.

Coach Don Williams's Wildcats landed eight berths on the all-district squad and three on the honorable mention list. James Blackwell was named to a place on the all-state team.

Three miniature trophies were presented to varsity players at the Student-Council sponsored athletic banquet. Recipients were determined by film gradings on number of blocks and runs, and on various qualities of good football players.

Pierce teamed up with Koller on two aerials. The first with 25 seconds left, Pierce's pass try for the extra points was in- complete.

Their play, The Inner Willy, was a huge success and the Junior-Senior Banquet was nothing less than sheer delight. All was not fun, however, for class work was harder than ever, and there were hardly enough hours in the day for homework.

CPicturedD Charladene Reeves and Ronnie Carden in- spect a model of a ship made by James Hayes. The major obiective was to broaden reading interests and to create a genuine desire to read for enioyment. Along with regular class work, the l2O students in five classes prepared biographical booklets to better acquaint themselves with the lives of American authors and the styles and purposes of their writings.

Sophomores Second layer on the cake, the sophomores greeted the first day of school with sighs of relief. lt was nice to begin a year in high school when they already knew the ropes. They had elected class officers and Student Council representatives before school was out in the spring, so, when school started, they were eager to get class activities under way. As the year progressed, a few sopho- mores earned prominence on the L.H.S. scene. However, the ma- iority of the class settled down into routine classroom work and into the regular activity program to await that glorious day when they would be upperclassmen.

Shyly taking their first step up, they had elected class officers and class representatives for Student Council in an all-out campaign in the spring. At first they were pushed and shoved through the hallways, more often lost than not. Gradual- ly they became either acclimated or numb. After an introduction into the various phases of life in L.H.S., they soon felt that they belonged. lt was only a matter of a few weeks until they were an in- dispensable part of many school affairs.

One hundred and thirty-four students, in five English classes, strive to improve spelling, reading, written and oral expression, and listening ability.
