Mr. Gullick talks to Yearbook member Linda Tarr. This year the administrative duties of Lovington High School were in the capable hands of Mr. Gullick and Mr. Zancha. Mr Zancha. having been a vital part of our school for 18 years, was always interested and concerned about the welfare and education of the Lovington High School students. Mr. Gullick. who became a part of our staff just a year ago was also concerned about our education. Under the guidance of these two administrators, the students of LHS worked to improve the conditions of our school so that the atmosphere would be more conducive to a positive attitude toward learning. On March 14. we were all shocked and saddened by Mr. Zancha's death. This tremendous loss of such a kind and generous man who always thought first of the students at LHS left a void in our community as well as our school that will be impossible to fill. Mr. Zancha's visitation and funeral were held in the high school gym with the high school chorus taking part in the funeral. The flowers and service were indeed a beautiful tribute to the life of this extraordinary man whose influence will always be felt in the lives of those who knew him. Mr. Zancha's hearty appetite was one of his trademarks. During the snow storm which sealed in the Meridian Conference players. Mr. Zancha enjoys a snack.

SCHOOL BOARD Students often hear about the school board voting on the senior class trip, an extra day of Christmas vacation, or suspension of a student. How many students know who these people are that meet the second Monday of every month, and consider, make, and revise all the rules and regulations at Lovington High School? There are seven members on the school board. Anyone who is a resident in the school district and of voting age is eligible to be a board member. Each member is elected for a three year term. They are elected in April of each year on a rotating schedule; two people are elected one year and three elected the next, avoiding a complete change of board members. The school board meetings are open to the public so everyone can see exactly how the school functions. Since these meetings are open, no one has any reason not to know what is going on in our school. These members have very difficult jobs and we have many opportunities to see our school board at work. Everyone should attend a board meeting and get involved.
