ANIlLCPL UMiC L ’ll I ■ • THE 1954 DESERT SANDS Yearbook of Associated Students at Antelope Union High School at Wellton, Arizona l TABLE OF CONTENTS Administration Classes Activities Sports A DREAM COMES TRUE Build a high school for the children of the Wellton-Mo- hawk Valley was an idea born long before 1949. How- ever, the realization of Colorado River water for the area made this a live ambition for some far-seeing citizens of our valley at this time. Despite delays, detours, and set- backs and leaders for construction ever pressed forward towards a goal they deemed necessary. Other men and women, recognizing this vital need, came forward to aid in the effort to provide educational services to our boys and girls. Many later served on the Board of Education of Antelope Union High School and gave additional serv- ices to the embryo institution. To these several citizens, the pioneers of our educational institution, we humbly dedicate this book. 3 DEDICATION THOSE WHO GUIDE US OUR UNSEEN ADVISERS Helping in every way possible are the Antelope Union High School Board of Education. Meeting once a month they settle many of the im- portant questions that arise at any typical high school. At one of the meetings they delayed their business long enough to pose for photographer Cochran and seated (1. to r.) are Alton Duke, member; Archie Perry, secretary; Ira Murphy, principal; W. O. Seale, member, and H. H. Moore, president. 6 A CHALLENGE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL IRA A. MURPHY “Education is the training of our mental and moral powers by a system of study, discipline, and life experiences” says Webster. Our high school, through its faculty, school plant, and organization, expects to create an en- vironment where the above is available in full measure to each and every student. A well-trained faculty with excellent facilities now give us a firm basis to challenge and guide the mental powers of our young citizens. This guidance must ever remain such that study, discipline, and experiences in life will enable our children to have a better and fuller tomorrow. To utilize the facilities, personnel, and organization of our school to best advantage, a student body with a desire to meet the challenges that must confront those who would become “educated” is needed. The challenge to each and every student to participate in our activities is the invitation to educational growth. You, the students of Antelope Union, must answer that ever continuing invitation which is extended with the knowledge that it is your open door to mental and moral growth. 7 Van G.

The mighty seniors have sparked activities and contributed to the school’s live- ly enterprises through this year as well as last year, Antelope’s first.

FULL STEAM AHEAD FOR '55 16 The juniors, the smallest class in school, were not to be outdone in success- ful undertakings. A Christmas dance in December was one of the nicest of the school year with beautiful seasonal decorations and fine music. Their prom in April was the main social event on the calendar and this one topped them all. Successful too were they in their money-making ventures—en- chilada supper and booths at the Mardi Gras Carnival. Pictured below on the right are members of the junior class looking over plans for the annual junior-senior prom. (1. to r.) Joyce Moore, Buddy Scott, Sue Holmes, Roger Howe, and Anne Crismon.

Sandra, the sparkplug in soliciting ads, was capably assisted by Terryll, Roger, Shirley, Frances, Bonnie, and Edna. Putting in as many hours with them on lay out and copy were Shir- ley, Bonnie, and Frances. Sid Clark joined the staff in the last few weeks to work on the sports section. The school photographer, Van Cochran, was always available to get action shots and scheduled pics. His constant service and cooperation has been invaluable. 27 Sat' STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS President.........................Shirley Hamby Vice President.....................Sandra Gaines Secretary-Treasurer................

The decorations were gay and beautiful and an evening to be long remembered. 29 SPANISH CLUB Students who have been busy organizing the first Spanish club of AUHS are shown here working on the Spanish club constitution which was voted on by the Student Council and is now in effect for the opening of school next September.

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA This year the Antelope Chapter of Future Farmers of America had an activity-packed program. The Yuma Union High Chapter sponsored the initiation of Antelope’s new members. Their annual Harvest Dance, Turkey Shoot, Sweetheart Ball, and Parent- Son Banquet were all successful events in which the entire school as well as the membership profited. The FFA boys accompanied by their advisor. Van G. Cochran, enjoyed field trips to Phoenix (the State Fair), Tempe, and Tucson throughout the year. This summer the boys will again take a fishing trio to the northern part of the state and to State Future Farmers of America in Prescott. The boys stop a moment for the photographer while judging a dairy cow. (1 to r) Marion Brown, Danny Lopez, Frank Hibbard, Jim Newman, George Ander- son, Clifford Meyer, and James Waddell. As Mr. Brown explains the working procedures of a thrashing machine, Frank Hibbard and James Waddell prepare to get things rolling. Learning the working ways of a large piece of machinery is just an every day revelation to the boys working on farm projects. I r — Looking over the fine points in judging this beef animal are George Anderson and James Waddell. Learning what to look for in judging a good chicken is just one of the many things learned by Gene Beckett, Bob Ran- dolph, and Larry Wisby. Marion Brown demonstrates the operation of a side rake on a field trip at his father’s ranch. i Sandra Gaines SWEETHEART A few of the FFA members who sere- naded the Sweethearts during the Ball are (1 to r) Clifford Meyer, Jim New- man. Ernie LaPlante, Marion Brown, and James Waddell. The FFA Chapter has done a wonderful job sponsoring their annual Sweetheart Ball and this year was no exception.

On a back drop of blue crepe paper two large red hearts with the attendants’ names, Shirley and Edna, in large white letters com- pleted the decoration !

I DESERT SANDS ROYALTY A TRADITION BEGINS One of the nicest affairs held this year was the first annual King and Queen dance. The reason for such a dance, is the beginning of a tradition that will grow as the school grows. We hope that you, as a student of AUHS, will look forward to this yearly event as much as we, the annual staff, enjoyed sponsoring such an occasion. Smiling happily after impressive crowning cere- monies, the couples are ready to start the grand march.
