Un Dec. 13 they paused on the journey to find refreshment under the oasis of the Tucson Senior High School cafeteria in the traditional mid-year fiesta. yVith the assistance of a cabinet appointed for their interest in the venture, Captain Daniel Danny Romero made this the outstanding event of the crossing. lfach and every de- tail of the fiesta was carried out to perfection, this perfection illustrated by the mu- sic of Senor johnny llarringer and his desert minstrels. Sunstroke was prevalent among these hardy pioneers, and several minds snapped under the strain of the journey. The epidemic reached its height on March 14 and l5, when the leading members of the battalion presented before the whole of Coro- nado's army a screwball comedy entitled You Can't Take It NVith You. The battalion leader, lienneth llall, was also striken with the epidemic, and during these fateful March days imagined himself a senile old man. XYhen all seemed to be over and the pioneers were again on their way, the en- tire company had a relapse in April. This time they celebrated what they called tacky day and presented themselves in the most remarkable costumes they could rig up. Finally, despite these hardships, the battalion beat the desert leaving' behind them a trail which will never be duplicated, a trail over which their predecessors will never cease to marvel.

Under the able guidance of their leaders, these pioneers have found their seven cities. lieforc venturing over the waste the battalion chose through election those who were to lead them. After careful consideration the adventurers chose those three whom they knew to be the most capable among them. The elections outcome was the selection of Kenneth Ball, presidentg Bob johnson, vice-president: and .leanne Gallagher, secretary. ln the latter part of january, the battalion sighted an oasis and took a much needed rest. lt celebrated Christmas by a mass followed by much merry-making. ltushing on again, the battalion met its first major engagement-mid-year ex- ams. Many of the less sturdy fell in the encounter, but most of the company of hardy fighters lived to continue their search for the seven cities of Cibola. Chief among the amusements the members of the battalion enjoyed, were the numerous friendly engagements with bands of indians. .Xt first, football was the major attraction, then basketball, and lastly baseball, track, and tennis. Coronado's men gave a good account of themselves in all cases and were en- thusiastically cheered not only by members of the hrst battalion but by the other two as well.
