On August 27, 1951 thirty-six Green Freshies wandered helplessly around L. H. S. To overcome our uncertainty we elected Jim Adkins—president, Roy Hinton— vice-president, Dick Evans—secretary-treasurer, and Kenton Mattison and Sharon Foster as Student Council representatives. For our homecoming queen candidate we selected Sharon Foster to be escorted by Kenton Mattison. This year, as silly sophomores, we know a little more. To guide us we elected Jim McClard—president, Lawrence Wacaser- vice-president, Sarah Townley—secre- tary-treasurer, and Shirley McCoy reporter. For Student Council representatives we elected Barbara Harlin and Lawrence Wacaser. This year we were nicely represented in school activities. Dick Evans and Mary Enloe were elected as homecoming king and queen candidates. Sharon Foster repre- sents us as a cheerleader for the different sport activities. Early in the football season, the sophomores had a little bad luck come their way. Everyone worked hard on the stand for the football game with Bethany. The joy of a fair beginning to a class treasury was short lived, however, when someone robbed the safe taking not only the sophomores' money but proceeds from the game the same night. In the middle of November, under the encouragement of our advisors, Mr. Cor- gan and Mrs. Vaughn, we picked up com to restore our loss and get in the money making bracket once again. We also sponsored the Thanksgiving dance later the same month. We are eagerly looking forward to our last two years in L. H. S. and know they will be as much fun as our first two years have been. 1st Row—J. McClard, S. Townley, L. Wacaser, S. McCoy, R. Kruger. 2nd Row—R. H. Hinton, J. Green, R. Adcock, M. Haraed, C.

On August twenty-eight, 1952, the class of 1956 embarked upon its career in Lovington High School. There were thirty-three of us newcomers the upperclassmen called “green” Freshman. We thought high school would be a snap because we had always had eight subjects before, and now we were only going to have four. Soon we found that there were many activities in which we might take part, and we were faced with the old problem of finding time for everything we wanted to do. We elected the following officers: President .......................................Donna Schuetz Vice-President....................................Danny Fread Secretary-Treasurer..............................Jackie Dahm Reporter...........................................Gene Pryor Student Council...............Danny Fread and Jeanett Weakly To our delight and surprise, the float we entered in the Homecoming parade won first prize. We selected as our king and queen candidates David Townley and Mary Goad. Our money making project was the stand which we had at the Arthur game. Top Row—D. Schuetz, D. Fread, J. Dahm. Second Row—K.
