What can be more tantalizing than a baby's smile-all the faith, hope, and dreams of humanity reflected on features undented and unsullied by the ways of civilization? What could be more appropriate for the theme of a yearbook? To your diaper days-to the times of rattles, and safety pins, to high chairs and a mother's soft af- fectionate care we take you. Back we go then, to babyhood. 1:3 1 E I '17 I- i F I 2' S Y Q - ........ - - .i-.-- - ....i.-. ,, -1 -it-.1 -Q.-..T -iii ? ..1 .1. ...l-1- .....i.... .-... i..... - ,.1...

I am sure that you are all as proud of this record as I am. I would like to wish the seniors the best of success in their future plans. I hope to see all the rest of you back foi a more successful year in 1950-51. Sincerely yours, LOREN S.

This pert young miss, Betty Hammer, carried out quite efficiently, the job of Student body Secretary. The job of Casa Grande's first student body Treasurer in several years was undertaken by Audrey Peart. John Morgan, Vice President, carried out well his duties and also man- aged those of Social Chairman. Page I5 39 .0 STUDENT couwcu.

One of the most progressive Student Councils in Casa Grande's history, showed their skill in student government this year. The projects undertaken and the goals achieved were numerous. The greatest of these was the conversion of the old swimming pool to a student recreation room. The re-writing of the school constitution and organization of next year's calendar were also undertaken. December 2, 1949 was the date of the Student Council conclave in Yuma. Much knowledge was gained and gay times were had at this con- vention. We salute the 49-50 Student Council for a job well done!

And at your graduation You are filled with some elation. And with pride display your sheepskin quite unfurled. With ease the old wor1d's troubles You reduce to Russian roubles, And you're confident you'll rise above the mob. But a year from now, all harried Worried, broke and muchly married, You'll find the task of rising quite some job. Esconced upon our pinnacle of alabaster We survey the futile little folk below us scurrying like so many aimless little ants, oh so many feet below us.-We are the seniors .... For many weeks now our heads have been deep in purple cloud mist smelling the fragrant smells only such as we can know. The Gods are our com- panions as we flourish here in ethereal pleas- ures warmed by the eternal sun of accomplish- ment and replenished by thoughts of graduation. -We are the seniors .... Point us out oh you poor mere mortals for we are the ones. Page 18 BETTY HAMMER IIURLEY COMPTON JO ANN ETHINGTON Nat, Honor Society 3-4 Girls' State G. A.

Glorious Campus butterflies Wiih never a care nor pain Flitting about from room to room The sweets of blossoms to drain. What matter the studies of yesterday, Lessons and books all junk. When pretty gals turn studious heads We don't give a darn if we flunk. So days are for prancing and nights are for dancing And in student festooning the fence To proms and part1es, we wander my hearties Oh, the llfe of a Junior's immense. Shining lights in utter stygian deep dark blackness-we are the juniors. In philosophical silence we have surveyed the antics of the under classmen, scoffed and even sneered at times at their adolescent attempts at learning. And if our complacent antics cause you pain have no concern. Only remember, the grave responsibility of seniordom- will fall like huge black lumps of coal upon our shoulders, and bear us down and make us graduate and there shall be tears and pain and gnashing of teeth and moaning at the bar-but we will make the most of our responsibility-we will carry on. ii.. . 8 W a an 4 ,s Melvin Ashmore '2 ,J --Ar A 1 Glenn Akin Anthony San Filippo Joe Sofenson x if 'W 'QQ f .. ..- I fx V ,, , 4 x 37 A I 9 lair' I Helen Ortiz Thomas Wilson 5 ,451 hx. , 1 1 . 1' f' 1 ' Betty Sanders f Q ,-If .

Oh, we're innocent little children, We have our baby stare. We carry a bib and sleep in a crib, And we hate the crude Sophs, so there. With heads bowed low in humbleness we came and loath to make a sound we tiptocd down these hoary corridors of learning.

Much time and interest center around making this the outstanding event of the year for the group. This club was organized during the second semester of the 1947-48 school year. The Rotary Club sponsors this organization as part of its international program. Its purpose is to foster a true spirit of under- standing among all the people of America through study of customs, in- terests, and economics of the various countries. This is done by learning games, songs, dances, and customs. Films stressing the interests and economies are shown at one of the two meetings held each month. In order to gain membership in this organization, the student must be enrolled in either Spanish I or II. A-B average for a semester's work is the basis for consideration by the members who vote on those eligible through scholarship. PAN AMERICAN Treasurer Shirley Ethington Sponsor Mrs. Virginia Rosbach President Robert Baker Secretary Lloyd Stephenson LATIN CLUB l The Latin Club received its charter from the American Class- ical League in the fall of 1948. This club is sponsored by Mrs. Clara Robinson. In order to belong to this club the student must be taking Latin and must have a sincere interest in the study. There were about thirty members. The activities of the Latin Club were mainly social, although a great deal about Roman and Greek culture and their highly de- veloped civilization was learned at the club meetings. The year's activities were climaxed with a banquet at which honor keys were presented to those having the highest records for two years in the language.

Cupid's arrow has found its 5 dzfweici Coaches T. Shanty Hogan and Al Van Hazel. Few people realize the importance of the coaching staff in a high school. In sports, not only do coaches develop boys physically, but serve as indispensable guides to good character as well. Heading the important threesome who directed the destinies of the Cou- gar teams is Thomas E. Shanty Hogan. Hogan, a U. of A. graduate, is head football coach, and is ably assisted in the sport by A1 Van Hazel. Al, a native Iowan, attended A. S. C. and became the champion javelin thrower in the Border Conference. Jack Spillsbury, J. V. mentor, hails from Juarez, Mexico. Mr. Spillsbury is also head basketball coach. Managers-Front row, left to right: Wayne Tuttle, Tracy Hutchins. Back row: Ernest Thode, Gene MacFaddin. The blue and gold grid ll was very lucky to have such fine managers as Wayne Tuttle and Tracy Hutchins. The boys have done a bang up job in helping the coaches and players every way possible. We hope we are just as lucky next year. Oh yeh! The J. V. managers Gene Mac- Faddin and Ernest Thode appear to be fol- ' lowing in the varsity managers' footsteps. Page 74 ' . '.

Aside from their loss the Kittens ran over such fine teams as Superior 54-0, Eloy 33-0, and tied a rugged Tucson Indian eleven 7 to 7. Standouts among this year's Kittens were backs Charles Bell, Joe Ham- mock, Al Dannheim, and Ezra Walker. Line bulwarks were Octavio Apa- daca, Bob Rosenbalm and Kenny Ehle.

Jack Spilsbury, that 6 foot, 195 pound' graduate of the University of Arizona, turned in an impressive record of 14 wins and 8 losses in his first year at the Cougar basketball helm. Although it took eight games for the Cougar quintet to catch on to Spilbury's methods they finally started clicking and built up a 6 game winning streak. Coach Spilsbury, although new at the coaching game, has done wonders with the team and is always building up the school spirit of the student body as well as team morale. This year's cage managers were, Richard Johnson, Dick Hall, and Gene MacFadden. These are the boys that kept the team going by making sure all the suits were in good order and at every game. They had a hard job to do and were responsible for all basketball equipment. A good manager is as much a part of the team as the players themselves.

Page 85 Lloyd Stephenson The Cougar cage quintet started slowly this year, but came back strongly in the latter part of the season to win 14 games while losing eight. Jack Spilsbury's well coached squad turned in such exciting per- formances as victories over such powerful teams as Coolidge, Bisbee, Santa Cruz, and a lopsided triumph over Tempe. Dashin' Dave Dannheim, Kenneth Kro- ese, Norma Pretzer, Glenn King, and Dave Lopez formed the nucleus of the Cougar squad. Dannheim, Kroese, and Pretzer will play their last for the Blue and Gold this year along with Scott Jim White, Lee Mauldin, and Marsh Holt. Back next year to bolster the team's chances will be Lopez, King, Bob Perguson, Richard Albrecht, John Morgan, and Lloyd Stevenson. The Cougars eliminated Tempe 50 to 29 to win their first contest of the East Cen- tral Tournament at Eloy, Thursday Febru- ary 23, thus enabling them to advance to the semi- finals. In the 2nd game they dropped a 38-25 decision to Chandler on Friday and bowed out of the tourney by losing to Coolidge 61 to 51 on February 25.

Though this year's J. V. quintet had only a mediocre record of 7 wins and 10 losses they beat such fine clubs as Gilbert, Ray, Tolleson, Superior, and Chandler. The defeats came at the hands of Ajo, Florence, Coolidge, and Chandler. After dumping Tempe 42-38 in the East Central Tourney at Florence, the Kittens dropped a heartbreaker to Florence, theeventual winner.

Page 87 The Casa Grande track team was very lucky to have Al Van Hazel, that 195 pound, 6 foot one inch graduate of Tempe as their track coach.

For the third year in a row the Cougar track squad has been superior to any high school competition in this district. Underthe brilliant coaching of Al Van Hazel this track team Won the Class B championship in 1949. The Cougars are especially strong in sprints with Wayne Tuttle and Johnny Morgan carrying most of the load. In the Distance races Matt Le- vario and Ike Hernandez are best qualified. Altogether the Cougars had one of the best track teams in the history of the high school. QQ 99 Front row, left to right: Tut- tle, White, Aiken, Levario, Guzman, D. Danheim, Hernan- dez. Cabanillas.

Under the guidance of their advisors, Miss Reiser and Miss Solms, the girls meet once a month in the girls P. E. building to prepare a dinner and have their meeting.

These girls are considered the cream of the crop and justify this feeling when they play teams like the Casa Grande faculty, Eloy High School and others of our val- ley schools. Also we have our second string all stars who very capably take over for the first string when need be.

GIRLS INTRAMURAL CHAMPIONS Mrs. Burkett's newly organized home room ran away with this year's Girls Intramural Championship. Home rooms are given points for different school ac- tivities that the students participate in, such as intramural sports, being on the honor roll and being in the band.

Ample fruit for hard la- bor was plucked when the junior- senior banquet and prom was held in the new student building and stud- ent financed ltumpus Room! Students have been wonder- ing for ages what to do with the old swimming pool, dry for years, which has been used as a storage room by the schools janitors. Our progrssive and aggressive student council this year decided to make a dream come true and make a recrea- tion room of the old pool area. To raise money for the pro- ject a cotton picking excursion by the student body was plan- ned. All pupils who guaranteed to pick cotton and donate mon- ey made to the recreation room were excused from school to work for the day. Approxi- mately three hundred dollars was raised this way.

Saint Peter welcomed them at the Pearly Gates. After several months had elapsed and Ken and Norman had settled themselves in sumptous apartments within the pre- cincts of paradise they would often drop around to take tea with the good guardian of heaven and discuss the worldly things below. One day St. Peter, tea cup to his lips murmured, I believe several members of your graduating class in high school cut quite a swath on good old Earth. Did you follow the careers of any of your fellow classmates? Pretzer flanped his silver flecked wings a couple of times to drive a few heavenly insects away, adjusted his gown around his knees and responded to St. Peter's query. Yes, I did keep up with some of the kids after they got out in the cruel world but when Ken and I got scrambled up with that meteor he's the only one I knew any- thing about. How about you, Ken did you know what any of the guys or gals were doing when we, ah, met our demise? Ken adjusted his halo, plucked a crum- pet, smeared it with ambrosia and reflec- ted: You know, Norm, I guess we were too busy exploring the universe. Why I couldn't even tell you how Bill Cox turned out. Gosh, pardon the expression, St. Peter, but gosh, I wish I knew. Well, men, said the celestial gate keep- er, you've been here long enough now, so I'll let you in on a secret. Just take those haloes off, point them right and you can see everything going on down there. Both Norm and Ken tore off their saintly sombreros and pointed them toward Earth. By some odd coincidence they both caught Casa Grande in their sights at the same time. Well, well, well! they exclaimed to- gether. There in city council meeting sat Rich- ard McAnally, lawyer, and city mayor, pounding his gavel, and laying the law down to fellow councilmen and city en- gineer Wayne Tuttle. Listen, Tuttle, yelled McAnally if you don't do something about that sewer by my house, my wife Nancy will blast the daylights out of me. Three of our six kids fell in yesterday. Richard Junior is still missing! Good heavens! exclaimed Ken and Norman together, he married Nancy Hud- speth! I wonder how he ever got her loose from that Rodeo performer she was bent on getting hitched to when I knew her last! said Norm. Look, down there on Florence Street said Ken, moving his halo a little, Isn't that Chief of ,Police Richard Carlyle ar- resting someone? Why yes, look, it's Ken Hart, he just tried to bum a quarter from that hand- some cowboy there. That's Smiling Jim Scott White, the, Cowboy Balladeer? He must be back in town to make his annual proposal to Sheba McCown. Let's look around in some of the homes in town now, said Norman. How about the Evergreen Addition. Can you locate it, Ken? Yes, look in that huge home. There's Bill Cox dodging cooking utensils, look in the kitchen, Norman. Who is throwing them? Norman nearly screamed in surprise. Heavens to Betsy it's Mildred Kendall. I hope she doesn't miss Bill and hit poor Bill Perguson out there mowing the lawn. I wonder who their neighbors are, Nor- man, said Ken move your halo over a little. There that's it. See the Fab depart- ment store's truck out in front. Two peo- ple, a man and a woman are bending over a crib inside the house. Why strike me red and yellow and tear off my left wing, it's Audrey Peart and Sid Crabtree. What a cute kid! Listen they're calling him Marsh. Must've named him after Marsh Holt. Say, I wonder what happened to the kill- er anyway? St. Peter who had been quietly enjoying himself suddenly broke in. Holt, did you say Marsh Holt. Tall Skinny fellow with glasses? Yes, St. Peter, he's the one. Have you seen him? questioned Norman and Ken together. Well, slowly responded St. Peter, Well, Yes, as a matter of fact he applied here several months ago. Had to turn him down, poor fellow. It seems he's the best Page 109 engineer who's come along in some time. Had to send him down below. Need a bridge built down there. That old house- boat on the Styxiis pretty rotten. Hated to turn him away. Maybe I'll get him out when he gets the bridge built. He was kill- ed in a big explosion in Venezuela. Nice fellow, sure hated to send him down. As St. Peter continued to shake his head in sorrow over Marsh, Norman shifted his halo to Uptown Casa Grande, noticing a large new building, he saw the sign flash- ing bright neon, Hotel Courtwright. My gosh, Ken, chuckled Norman, Bill Court- wright's in the hotel business and running his mother competition, what do you know? And look who's working for him said Ken as he examined the new twenty story building. There's Norma Robles selling ci- gars, Wayne Ritchey is at the desk, Frank Padilla is a bell-boy, Wayne Redman is the chef in the restaurant, Lorena Pratt and Virginia Schleuter do upstairs maid service, George Crouch is the doorman, Mary Melick the bookkeeper and secretary and Sam Pratt runs the hotel barber shop. They must be having a dance. Big crowd in the ball room. Why it's old Fred Pretzer and his Meat Ball Seven, supplying the music. Oh, oh, here comes Melba Williams and Mararet Dickey to do a vocal. Let's see who's in the crowd. There's a cute married couple, said Norman, Jean Swearingen and George Martin. I understand he's farming about eight sections. Has Wilfred Wellington as a foreman. Dean Schurz also drives a cat for him. Old C. G. certainly has grown. mut- tered an amazed Ken. I'm going to flip over to the high school. See if Mr. Curtis is still there. Maybe some of the kids came back to teach. Gosh the old practice football field is one big building now. Yep, Mr. Curtis is still hanking on. And there's Lee Muldin teaching agriculture, George Sturgill is still giving his class a lecture on Abe Lin- coln in American History. Jo Ann Ething- ton is teaching girl's P. E. The football team must be going on a trip. There's coach Dean Hassen and Oh, my golly, Jerry Rogers is driving the bus. You'll soon have some more applicants, St. Peter. He'll never get them to Superior in one piece. There's the band loading up too. Stan McElrath must be teaching music there now. I see he's got a director's uni- form on. Let's skip up town again said Norman school always did bore me. Stop, right there in the bank. None othe rthan Hurley Compton with President in gold letters on his office door. Why there's Dave Dannheim talking to Hurley. Brought his wife Betty Cabanillas in to sign the papers for a loan, I guess. And look in his outer office typing like mad. Hazel Kellogg and Nan Sewell-seems like one private secretary would be enough. There's another fellow we know, Raymond Stanford, cashier. Here comes Betty Holladay in to make a deposit. That little boy of hers looks just like J ulian. Isn't that a new building across the street from the bank, Norman? queried Ken. Helen's Dress Shop-Fashion by Helen . . . Harbison sets the Style. Boy I sure tried to get that girl to marry me. Too career conscious though. Glad she made good. I see she has Delia Serrano and Hope Chapman working industriously as models. That's a beautiful mink Delia has on. Anyone we know in the hospital I won- der, mentioned Norman. They complet- ed that new one in 1970. Oh, yes, Betty Woods and Lizzie Mae Hankins both nurs- es, mmmmm very becoming uniforms too. And Joyce Brooks the hospital receptionist. Nice gal, Joyce. And oh oh, tragedy, there's Bobbie Phillips crying at the bedside of her air-craft manufacturing husband, Vir- gil DeLong, big crash yesterday, hope he pulls through. You know Norman said Ken, there is only one person we've missed. Who, asked Norm, I thought we had them all. p No, just one, Betty Hammer. After a few wild gyrations with his halo, Ken yelled, Stop the Press! Stop the Press! There she is. Managing editor of the Casa Grande Dispatch, circulation 200,000. What a girl! What a'personality! Both fellows, a little exhausted with their search leaned back, sipped their tea and sighed. Gee, it's quiet up here, St. Pete. I'm kind of glad we hit that meteor. Those people are having fun on Earth alright, but still I'm glad I'm here. So am I. said Ken.
