ELLIOT President MR. LLOYD S. LONG MR. DON SMITH MR. EDWARD A. CREVISTON MR. WILLIAM DIMOND M ess ge F rom tlk .e u p e r m t e n cl e n t To the Seniors: We know that you have been looking forward to the time when you no longer will rely on adult leadership to guide you into upward paths toward heights you now can reach. At first your high school life appeared as a vast area extended before you. and only slow and lingering steps enabled you to tread the rugged road ahead. Throughout your four years of high school you learned principles until you began to feel you would never master them. However, with some direction and determination you gradually gained a foothold that helped you to see the solemnity of strength in knowledge gained, the value of fellowship in organizations, and a realization of lasting memories of many meaningful associated events. Yours has been a series of normal experiences if you have considered Lovington High School as a place of friendship, of social and educational betterment, a place of leftover homework, hours of enjoyment and excite- ment, a schedule of football games and band formations, shouts of disappointment and cheers of success, a place of leading and following, class plays and basketball tournaments, class repons and term papers, hungry students waiting in lunch lines, a place of freedom and a place of rules, miles of halls, and a cherished diploma. Graduation to you should mean that certain purposes have been accomplished and many wishes fulfilled. Now it is your turn to take a more prominent place in the world as you leave the sidewalk of youth and begin to travel the path of age. g 3 5 MR. JACK HIGHTOWER Speech Correctionist B.

RICHARD COOK Class Advisors: MRS. ESKRIDGE and MR. ALLEN o emor LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the class of 1963, being of fairly sound mind, do hereby bequeath the following to those we leave be- hind: I, Wayne Blankenship, leave my sincere ability to get along with Mrs. Eskridge to Gene Robinson. I, John Bowers, leave my four minute mile to Jerry En- sign and my band whistle and stop sign to Mr. Zan- cha for between classes. I, Julie Burcham, leave laughing. How else? I, Richard Cook, leave my football vacancy to Henry Hubbard and hope that he can fill it. I, Richard Goad, leave my assistant, Mr. Williams, to teach the shop classes. With the experience he has gained the past four years, he should be quite capa- ble. I, Richard Grant, leave and take everything with me. I, Joyce Lee, leave my ability to put books back on the top shelves of the library to Joan Stinson, a taller Library Club member. 1, Mike Lee, leave Rick Allen my ability of preventing school from interferring with my education. I, Lynden Long, leave my prayer-wheel to Larry His- song in hopes that he can improve his horse-shoe game. I, Dave Lorenson, leave my mannerly ways and extra white bow ties to Mary Beth Smith. I, Larry Morrison, leave my big hands to Sarah Minor so she can handle all problems of the Student Coun- cil and my pairs of size 13 shoes to Mr. Bell, so he can patrol the bookkeeping class in half the time and to Kenny Wilhelm, so none of the football players can knock him down. I, Gilbert Phelps, leave my way with girls to Gary Hale and my mastery of ''capitalization'' to Oliver Dyer. I, Linda Phillips, leave my weekly trips to the mauso- leum to Kirby Fleming and Susan McGuire. I, Bob Piatt, leave my ability to pole vault to Shirley Creviston. May she have more luck bending the pole than I had. I, Norma Rickey, leave to attend Southern and to be with Rucfy. I, Steve Trainor, leave my most hated nickname, La Verne,-' to Rebecca Stephenson. I, Tom Switzer, leave to the class of 1964 my collec- tion of unpaid I.O.U.'s which I have been unable to collect with anything short of legal action. I hope these will help pay your expenses (if you can collect). Good Luck!!! I, Richard Trummel, leave my ag class reputation to Kent Hoffman and may he suffer the consequences. I, Kay Weaver, leave Mr. Bell. The poor old soul!!! What will he do without me? I, Frances West, leave and take John with me. I, Lei Yamamoto, leave all the assembly programs 1 couldn't get the past four years to someone more fortunate than I. To Mr. Best we leave a set of magnetized horse-shoes of the CLASS OF 1963 so that he can get closer to the stakes. To Mr. Allen, we, the physics class leave a bundle of used scotch tape which we have borrowed over the years. To Mr. Zancha we leave a closed circuit television set so he will not have to patrol the lunchroom. To Mrs. Eskridge we leave the pleasant memories of her experiences during the year, which she had the honor of being our class advisor. To Mr. Bell we leave his fond memories of his class room periods with Larry Morrison. To Mr. Thomas we leave a book of corny jokes for his ag classes because his best class is graduating. Best class of jokers!!! To Mrs. Thomas we leave a new gavel for the lost and found auctions. To Mr. Williams we leave a supply of courage so in- stead of just threatening, he can really use his paddle. To Mr. Jarvis we leave a P.E. class that wants to do what he wants to do and not what they want to do. To Mr. Rhoades we leave a megaphone so that he won't have to talk so loudly during music practices. To Miss London we leave a pair of glasses so she can see stop signs on the sociology trip. To Mrs. Bailey we leave a four-foot white strip painted down the center of the floor so her students can walk the chalk without so much effort on her part. To Mrs. Kitchen we leave a large underground subway from the high school to the grade school, so she can hot rod without being seen. To Mr. Peadro we leave five Watusis for his basketball team. To Mrs. Stephenson we leave Gene Robinson, Roger Long, Kent Hoffman, and Scott Booker. This should be more than enough. To Miss Bell we leave with many regrets. She could come with us if she would. To Miss Kerans we leave her pinned in hopes that one of these days, she'll be married. To Mrs. Fleming we leave a redcap, called Willie, to run all her many errands. To Mrs. Dickson, Mrs. Landgrebe, and Mrs. Wilhite we leave more state aid for more food. To Mr. Brown and Mr. Gravens we leave bacteria to eat all dirt. How's that? To the class of '64 we leave the spirit of our football season and the challenge of equaling our football championship. To the class of '65 we leave our good example to fol- low in all your business affairs as upper classmen. To the class of '66 we leave the school and the teachers for you to put up with for three more years. Good Luck!!! To the Lovington High School we leave memories of the best class it ever had. Signed, THE CLASS OF 1963 Juimor Dear Mr. Allen: It was nice to see your name in the newspapers re- cently telling about the new honors that you have won in the scientific field, since you left the teaching pro- fession. It set me to thinking about Lovington High School and my fellow students there. I remember that you and Mrs. Eskridge were the sponsors of that Class of 1963 ... the one that was so small in number and so many wondered what, if anything, they might ever ac- complish after graduation. You will be interested, I am sure, in hearing that I was able, last week, to see all the members of that graduating class. And I have an idea that you would enjoy my sharing that visit with you. Here it is! Remember the great success of the World's Fair in New York in 1965? I didn’t think that another fair could ever compete with it but, after spending last week at the 1977 World's Fair in Lake City ... on the shores of City Lake ... I have decided that the present Fair exceeds all its predecessors. Perhaps I am prejudiced since I met so many former schoolmates there, but let me tell you about it. At the very entrance of the Fair I met Richard Cook and his family who had stopped by on their way to Lov- ington's new shopping center. I considered myself lucky to meet friends in such a big place but, a few min- utes later, I stopped in the midway to observe a famous orchestra and at the piano sat Tom Switzer! The num- ber that they were playing was Chopsticks. It still seems to be the only piece that he plays but at least he has managed to win fame with the many variations of Chopsticks that he has arranged. Farther down I heard the cry of a carnival barker and decided that, for a woman, she was good . . . and she looked familiar. Can you imagine? It was Joyce Lee! Then I did another double take as 1 looked at the fat man and fat woman. They were Wayne Blankenship and Julia Burcham. Well . . . calories do add up. you know! Even the weight lifter was a former classmate . . . Richard Trummel. Ever since he won the title of Mr. World of 1968 he has been the envy of the men and the idol of the women. He's still the same friendly per- son and, when I wanted to talk about his successes, he directed me to the next attraction . . . Superman. He was Richard Grant. We always knew that he would put his superb strength and ability to use somehow. As I walked past the house of mirrors, I saw Steve Trainor who is in charge of that attraction. At last he is in a place where he can comb his hair to perfection. I spent considerable time in the exhibits of the for- eign countries. In the Swiss Cheese center was Dave Lorenson. Well ... he always wanted to be a big cheese and, at last, he is in WITH the biggest ones. .Piropikecy In the United Nations lecture room I found Frances West on the platform. She is a member of the Peace Corps and has just returned from her assignment in Rus- sia and was discussing some of the help she had been able to give the natives there. Then I met Norma Rickey but just couldn't believe it was she. After her visit in Africa she decided to make it her home . . . and . . . had found the medic- inal plant that the Watusi warriors use to make them so tall. Imagine Norma 7 feet tall! No wonder I didn't recognize her. Leaving the foreign exhibits I went to the Modern Living Building. There I saw quite a crowd of women around a hair styling demonstration being given by Bob Piatt. His model was Linda Phillips. One thing that can be said for Piatt is that his styles are definitely DIF- FERENT! I wonder, however, if the work doesn't have him confused and that confusion shows in all of his styles for he is considered the best of ratters. In the Clothes for the Modern Living Building I rec- ognized two of the models as Lei Yamamoto and Kay Weaver. They, too. had a crowd as they displayed the latest in bikinis. Later, in a Penny Arcade, we ran across Richard Goad. They say that he is so skilled at the pinball machine op- erations that he can now play two pinball machines at a time. I was unable to learn just how he finances his op- erations. In the Rides area I met Mike Lee. Mike is in charge of maintenance of all the rides and is doing quite well for himself. When he travels he drives a Special Built Cadillac. But his boss is doing even better. The rides are the property of the Gilbert Phelps, Inc. In addition Gilbert maintains a fleet of planes to furnish his own transportation. Looking across the way we saw Larry Morrison riding the Merry-go-round. His father had just bought him a handful of tickets. Guess he never will grow up! As I was about to leave the fair, I met some dignitar- ies who were just arriving. In the group I recognized John Bowers and Lynden Long, the two senators from Alaska. We managed to speak briefly and I congratu- lated them upon their part in the Alaskan developments. They were modest about their achievements. Later I wished that I had asked them why they had decided to make their homes in the far north. That reminded me of your co-sponsor of the class . . . Mrs. Eskridge. As a world traveler she has made her home in many differ- ent places on Earth and I am told that her next travel itinerary includes a trip to Mars. After leaving the gate I marveled that I had met the whole class of 1963. Sincerely, KIRBY FLEMING - Class of '64 23 Wide Awake and Ready to Go. Senior A senior Trip is the culmination of four years of planning and work which involves the students as well as their sponsors. Mrs. Grace Eskridge and Mr. Lawrence Allen were on hand bright and early on the morning of Friday, May 10th, 1963, as the group assembled at the high school prior to their drive, by automobile, to the Illinois Central station in Mattoon. A train's arrival is exciting and the All Aboard a welcomed invitation. Chicago, here we come! T rap The Sheraton housed the group and from the hotel the students went on conducted tours of points of interest in the windy city. High- lights of the trip was a dinner in Chinatown and a cruise in the Wendelia yacht on Lake Michi- gan. It was a never-to-be-forgotten experience. On Sunday evening the tired group of seniors was met at the station by friends and relatives. Up high with a cam- era and it's a snap! (Lower Left) Newest Mode of Travel. Cooper set the record of 22 Laps. A new style of architecture breaks the skyline. THE CLASS OF 1963 ROW I: Julia Burcham, Joyce Lee, Kaye Weaver, Richard Trummel, Steve Trainor.

There are the early planning sessions: What shall be the theme9 How shall we arrange the copy9 Then there is the work of meeting the deadlines, the inevitable things that happen to pictures, and the worries that beset the crew. And - last of all - the joy that accompanies the shipment of the Final Copy. Then we recall that it has actually been a year of pleasant work and companionship. ££ Y ear; ibooik St The work of the advertising salesmen is completed early in the fall.

Our money making activities have been the cookie sale and the annual soup supper. These have enabled us to meet many of our responsibilities and serv- ices to the community, school, and welfare organizations. There was the night of the Christmas Carols; we took favors to the patients in the nursing home; we sponsored a community baby sitting project; and were represented at the annual officer's training meeting. At each of our regular meetings we enjoyed an interesting speaker. We are the Future Homemakers of America. We face the future with warm courage and high hopes for we have the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious values. We are the builders of homes; homes for America's future, homes where living will be the expression of everything that is good and fair, homes where truth and love and security and faith will be realities, not dreams. We are the Future Homemakers of America. We face the future with warm courage and high hope. ” 72 ROW Is Mrs. Thomas. Advisor.

GoA� Ao One of the main objectives of the Girls' Athletic Association is to promote a more wholesome attitude toward athletics. In so doing, a sense of sportsmanship, ability to execute skills, and a desire for competition among the girls are also acquired. We hope that this has been the rule and not the exception in this year's work. The following officers that led the group were: President, Mary Beth Smith; Vice-President, Becky Pound; Secretary- Treasurer, Gail Witt; Points Captains, Jane Morrison and Beverly Bolsen. Our main event this year in G.A.A. was our class tournament. The winners were: 1st Place - Juniors - Class of '64 2nd Place - Seniors - Class of '63 3rd Place - Freshmen - Class of '66 4th Place - Sophomores - Class of '65 After the tournament the participating girls voted Frances West as the outstanding player. 73 Peggy Barr, Vice-President, Joyce Lee, Rebecca Stephenson, Marjorie Trommel, Joan Stinson, Area Treasurer, Karen Montgomery, President, Linda Reedy, Susan McGuire, Sec. -Treas., Shirley Creviston, Sharon Montgomery, Reporter, Pat Cochran.

LHS includes four buildings: The gym, Science and Library, Main, and Com- mercial and Home Economics. Immunizations come to the school. The students are eager. Dr. McLaughlin does his duty. Dr. Yamamoto, local physician, concentrates on his work. WV ) i PPFfl WINTER moves in and the scenes change. Students are busy in classes and study halls. Throughout the year we are aware of the backing of the community—its people, clubs, and businesses. ■ m '4 u I I Jr v: The student body makes an appreciative audience. The school Christ mas party includes bingo, guessing games, and a limbo contest. i SPRING arrives and slowly, but surely, the school year draws to a close. We host a basket- ball tournament, the Seniors give their play, make a trip to Chicago, and are feted by the Juniors at the Prom and Banquet. Remaining days of school are counted and sudden- ly some of the students begin to worry about grades and in- dulge in simulated study but old habits are hard to change and certain expected credits fail to materialize. Next year, perhaps, — will be different! In the fall, the work of the year- book begins with vigor. Pictures are made, advertisers solicited, division pages planned and layouts discussed. Then the staff of the Mirror is reduced as paths of inter- est change but the working corps continues and the book begins to take its final shape. The Mirror Staff hopes that their efforts will be able to en- hance your memories of LHS and brighten the way that you take . . . Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by And that has made all the dif- ference.' Seniors begin work on a play. Pianists make a piano walk. Juniors use skits to campaign.
