Pwiwf DEAR GWEN: Since you couldn't come to Shirley Drewry's and Delmas DuBois's wedding anniversary party in the completely remodeled Woman's Club, I thought I would write you about it. The Cafe Society of the Cattle Capital-headed by Doris Tucker, Peggy Smith, and Dorwilla Frazee and their spouses-gave this most elegant party. It was a pot-luck affair and believe you me no one died of starvation! Edres Bryant brought two of her Sahuaro cactus pies for which she is now famous. She told me that she even has a patent on them. The orchestra was provided by Bud Flanders and his Glamour Boys-Tom McAllister, Don Cox, and Jim Baker. Bud flew out here from New York to be with his old buddy on his anniversary. The pilot of the American Airlines plane that Bud flew out on was none other than Phil Masters. The entertainment for the evening was provided by the famous Moreno dancing team who did an ex- hibition tango. The vocalist for the Glamour Boys, Jerry Harrison, sang love and Marriage . Holly- wood comedian. Bill Veck, who flew out for the occasion, was the Master of Ceremonies for the evening. There were a few regrets, it seems. One of these was the fact that Pat McCombs was in the Mrs. America Contest but was only a runner-up as she didn't have quite enough children. Janet Camp was another who couldn't be there as she is study- ing opera in Italy. Shirley Kimzey, who Ccouldn't be here eitherl, it seems, has raised a big family and it is really keeping her busy. Shirley and Johnny even had to get an old schoolbus because their station wagon got too small. Do you remember Lee Harris, the Student Body President during 1955- 56? Well, he is the present U.S. Ambassador to Russia. He is in Washington conferring with the President. O I sat next to Maggielea Etheredge and Evange- line Fielder during dinner. Maggielea said that her children are the most photographed children in the state-I wonder why??? Evangeline is now designing foundation garments. Hollywood film star, Suzanne Berry Calias our own Sue Berrymani, came in swatched mink fol- lowed by her devoted husband, Elden Gardner. Troy Neal appeared at the party with a fascinating brunette. Even Dorothy Stewart, the noted iournalist, couldn't find out who she was. Jim Hansen has apparently made scads of money from his oil wells. He sent the loveliest corsages to all the gals from Carolyn's ICOXI Flower Shop here in Willcox, and Johnny Hernandez was flitting around making sure that everyone had champagne so that a toast could be made to the happy couple. By the way, did you know that he owns the big supermarket? I noticed that the brightest faces in the staglines were those of Glen Keipe, Dave Sanchez, Jim Roberson, Jim Smith and Claire Owen. Patsy Tschirhart won the applause for being the youngest grandmother there! Well, I must close for now as we have to get the children ready for our trip home to Texas. Please write soon and tell me all about South America and let me Nknow when Howard finally gets his patent on that insecticide for killing the South American Canthocamptus Simocephalus, OK? OKI I do hope we can get down there for the holidays. Affectionately, Sleazy 26-

Semin aa Qfwtazg. 'i I ONE BRIGHT SEPTEMBER morning in the year 1943, Sara Arteaga, Fred Garcia, Janet Camp, Jerry Harri- son, Jim Hansen, and Troy Neal, along with Mrs. Ruth Eikenberry, banded Together in our little kindergarten room to begin our exciting adventure of exploration into the land of 'whys' and 'whats'. With exception of Mrs. Eikenberry we enjoyed ourselves in the sand-pile and had a lot of fun learning to get along with our pals. Under the direction of Mrs. Ann Randall we learned to read and write Csomewhatt. Dorwilla Frazee joined this proud group of individuals in our first grade year of 1944. We proceeded to advance in the world, and at the end of our second year in grammar school, with the added energies of Delmas DuBois and Peggy Smith, we began to take on a tremendous amount of learning. Patsy Tschirhart and Maggie Etheredge became members of the scholarly clan in our third year of advancement. 1947 met with success, and the happy fourth graders now included Davy Sanchez. We continued our wonderous adventure in Education and entered the fifth grade in 1948. Added to our group was Carolyn Cox and Evan- geline Fielder, who helped us enjoy the enchant- ment of school life. In 1949 we were still going full blast, and the notable Gwen Clayton and Lee Harris entered the class. The great goal of all of us was achieved when we became leaders of the entire grammar school in 1950. This seventh grade class proved to be one of 'supreme intelligence', and Jim Baker, Doris Tucker and John Hernandez helped us obtain this title. It was a trying experience when we entered the eighth grade and became a part of Willcox High School. We survived, and the change was welcomed. Although we lost Dorwilla to the Cow- boys of Casa Grande, we gained Sue Berryman and completed our elementary education. Now we were members of Willcox High School. Nothing could keep these glorious freshmen from the marvelous joys of high school life. Evangeline had left us in 1949 but returned to Willcox and was with us in the ninth grade. Also, Don Cox, Q - AIT.. -fri QE'-X Tom McAllister, Pat McCombs and Bud Uohni Flanders helped us to enjoy the first year of high school. Mr. F. V. Jordan helped us to get settled and acquainted with the new school as our sponsor. Among other outstanding events our initiation took some of the energy out of us, but not much. To W.H.S. came Shirley Brown Kimzey, Shirley Drewery, Maria and Frank Moreno and Jim Smith, in 1953. Our sophomore year flew, and we con- tinued the life-time job of learning. Mr. Jordan, again our sponsor, was always ready to help us make money for the class, and we worked hard to gain our capital. Then came our junior year, and we all became high and mighty upperclassmen. Some of our men became active in sports, and others in F.F.A., and such fields, while the delicate portion of the group enjoyed Glee Club, tennis, and many other STRENUOUS activities. As our main accomplishments of the year we presented two one-act plays, and gave a successful Prom for the seniors, with the aid of our sponsor, Mrs. B. J. Corn Miskovich. To assist us in our tasks, Edres Bryant, Sherry Gunter, Phil Masters, Jim Roberson and Bill Veck joined our fast expanding band. Now for the most eventful and important year which few of us will forget. Glenn Keipe, Dorothy Amick, Claire Owen and Margaret Castillo joined the senior class in the grand year of 1955. We also had the pleasure of having Peggy reunite with us. She left us in January of 1955, but returned and entered school in September. This senior class proved to be a Privilege Character Group, for we were the first seniors to go to school in the brand new and beautiful high school, which all of us appreciated and enjoyed very much. Yes, we finally concluded our high school adventure. It was a great year, and among our accomplishments, the highly successful play-The Nervous Wreck-was presented, under the direction of Mr. J. Callas. We also put out our year book, The Roundup, went on a glorious trip to California, and graduated from high school. Mr. R. Bowman and Mrs. R. Troutman, our sponsor and co-sponsor, aided us in this mag- nificent school year. The feeling of knowing we must leave W.H.S. for good is none too wonderful, but the happy and unforgettable memories of our high school life will remain with us always. -28
