' the Jackrabbitf' These were the words spoken by Shirley lchrlsfen Merrill, the girl you chose from thirteen candidates to christen your new .lackrabbit bus. While you stood in the street anxiously waiting, Shirley christened the .lackrabbit with a bottle of carrot juice. Immediately following the christening, your T946 football team took the first ride in your new bus. One of the gridsters, while riding in the bus, remarked that it was like riding on a cloud. You had dreamed of this day tor a long time and now at last it was coming true. After twelve long years of careful planning and budgeting the bus that you had long dreamed of was at last yours. Carl Eaves, your auto mechanics teacher, went to Sydney, Ohio, to drive the bus back. Your Jackrabbit bus has a special body design by Beck and an International motor. lt has been in almost constant use since it was christened The Jackrabbitf' making an average of three or four trips a week. Some of its more prominent trips were when the Girls' League drove it to Yuma, when the basketball team drove it to Tucson to the state tournament, when the FFA boys took it to Tucson to the stock show, when the student council went to Holbrook in it and also when a group of seniors visited the state capital in it. Your superintendent, Harvey L. Taylor, told you the day of the christening that this bus was a dream come true. He also emphasized that in order to raise a special fund to replace the bus every ten or twelve years, the groups using the bus would pay a certain fee according to the distance traveled. We, your parents, are proud that you have taken this step forward, it is a definite sign that you are making the Mesa High that you know and enjoy now, a better institution lor your children and the children to come.
