Miss Shannon is also very active as coach of the girls' volleyball and tennis teams. Under her direction the volleyball teams have won six dis- trict championships and four second places. The tennis team has won two singles championships and one doubles championship in state competition. Upon obtaining her Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Arizona, Miss Shannon taught two years in Cliff, New Mexico. She then came to Clif- ton and has since taught in the primary grades. Miss Shannon also serves as head teacher of The Liem Building. In the summer months, Miss Shannon teaches riding at Perry Mansfield Camp in Steamboat, Colorado. She is a member of the National Riding Com- mittee under the Physical Education Division of the National Education Association. To Miss Shannon, we dedicate this book to show our love and our ap- preciation for her interest and unselfish devotion throughout all of the year s. SUPERINTENDENT PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Mr. V.L. Meneley The home, the church, and the school--the three main forces in education inany community-- are even more important in a remote region such as Clifton. To the delight of educators, parents in every community across the United States are awak- ening to the fact that education is not merely a matter of going through the motions, that the high school must insist that learning be accomplished, and that the high school to succeed in the latter must raise its standards. It is my opinion that Clifton High School is not being led by other schools in its attempt to accomplish the above purposes but, instead, has been a leader because of its outstanding teacher s and students throughout the years. May Clifton High School continue to strive for better education! 9 V. L. Meneley, Principal LYSLE L. VALKINGBURG B.S., New Mexico Western Girls Physical Education Sponsors C Club Baseball CRUZ M.

Student Council The student council chose the following leaders for the year: president, Alex Padilla; vice- president, Stephen Stanton; secretary, Sharon Smith; and treasurer, Mary Salcido. One of the first projects of the year was a banquet in September for all council members and high school faculty members. The purpose of the banquet was to help the teachers and student council members become better acquainted. Terri Murry was chairman. Another project was the preparation of a lounge for all CHS students. Much time was spent on this project. A couch, chairs, and tables were donated by Rietz's Furniture Store. The stu- dent lounge is to provide a place for the students to gather and to study. It is located in the student council book store. Six members were selected to attend the student council convention at Yuma on December 10, 11, and 12. Students attending were: Stephen Stanton, Sharon Smith, Mary Salcido, Ruthie Fer- nandez, Terri Murry, and Joe Kingsley. A talent show was sponsored by the student council on January 19. Ruthie Fernandez was in charge. All students of CHS were invited to contribute any act that they wished. Acts were contributed by individuals as well as groups. The CHS Charity Drive was also headed by the student council. Stephen Stanton served as chairman of the committee in charge. An evaluation committee then combined all the activities of the entire year in order to suggest a program for the next year. The student council had a very successful year in conducting their many worthwhile projects. Student council sponsors were Miss Meyer and Mr. Patton. 18 -r fj ' ■ y J r CHARITY DRIVE MAKES $500 LEFT: Alex Padilla, Carol Scott, and Terri Murry checking thermometer to find goal exceeded $500, The week of February 9 through 15 was set aside as CHS Charity Drive Week sponsored by the student council. A sum of $500. 00 was raised. This figure represented the most money that had ever been raised by such a charity drive at CHS. A banquet was held for the presentation of the money to presidents of the following organiza- tions: Mrs. Donna Olney, Heart Fund; Mrs. Flora Munkres, Cancer Society; Mrs. Charles Tracy, March of Dimes; and Rosemary Pochmara, Greenlee County Crippled Childrens Society. The presidents of the organizations and all student council members attended the banquet. The committee in charge of the drive was: Stephen Stanton, chairman; Dan Danenhauer, Carol Scott, and Terri Murry. The drive opened when Terri Murry and Carol Scott acted as announcers over radio station KCLF for a period of three hours. One song was played over and over again until $5.00 was raised. Then a change was made to another song. Money was also donated for special services. These services included Mr. Pavlich and Mr. Salas singing El Rancho Grande, Mr. Morris singing the Marines Hymn, and Mr. Meneley singing another solo. An auction at the high school was next. Individual teachers and students auctioned services and food to be bought by any member or group of members of the student body who did the highest bidding. Over the weekend the committee and helpers sponsored a toll bridge project on the new Clifton bridge. As cars passed, charity drive donations were solicited. The drive ended with a faculty basket- ball game between the Morenci and Clifton faculty members. It is tradition at CHS to give the student body a one-half day holiday whenever they raise over $100. 00 in a charity drive. The 1959-60 student body definitely earned their holiday.

Future Teachers of America The Clifton FTA was very active during the school year of 1959-60. At the first meeting, chairmen were chosen for committees to assist at each meeting of the year. Mr. Meneley was guest speaker for the first meeting in September. Each member brought a classmate to the meeting. In October the members traveled to Duncan to attend the County FTA meeting. Clifton members were elected to three top offices. They were: vice-president, Nedra Webster; secre- tary-treasurer, Mary Arlene Salcido; and historian, Mary Albo. In November members were chosen as assistants to the elementary teachers. The purpose of assisting the elementary teachers is to give FTA members an idea of the goals and duties of a teacher. In December, the FTA members enjoyed a Christmas Stephen and Irene fulfill their FTA duties. PartV- ToVs were collected and sent to the Sunshine Acres Children's Home in Tempe. The club also presented Mrs. Sophia Farnsworth with a Christmas gift. The Clifton Chapter of FTA is named after Mrs. Farnsworth. In Feb- ruary the FTA assisted with the polio drive. In March, s e 1 e c t e d members traveled to Phoenix to attend the state convention at North Phoenix High School. Local FTA officers for the year were: president, Irene Urquidi; vice-president, Sharon Gough; secre- tary, Mary Salcido; treasurer, Nedra Webster; parliamentarian, Carol Rietz; historian, Mary Albo; and student council representative, Patsy DeLeon.

The annual staff of 1959-60 chose Dan Danenhauer, editor; Gretna Phinizy, assistant editor; and Christine Dow, business manager. Annual sponsor was Miss Chancellor. The major activity of the staff was publishing the 1959-60 edition of the Trojan. Supplemen- tary activities were: a Christmas party for the staff and their guests, a sock-hop after the Safford-Clifton game, and the concession stand at the Silver City-Clifton football game. At the start of the school year the staff sold advertising space in the annual to merchants of Clifton, Morenci, Duncan, and Safford. Then after this selling campaign, the decision was made on the size of the annual to be published. Much work was done on the annual during the publica- tions period which is a part of the regular school day. However, much time was also spent after school in order to complete the task of annual publication. The final deadline for annual copy was set for March 15 in order that delivery of the Trojan could be made late in May be- fore the end of the school year.

(Not shown: Jean- ette Nelson, Editor) Desert Song The Desert Song is published in order to bring to the student body and the faculty the latest news in important events occurring around the school premises and on the sports field. Each member of the student body is given a paper without charge. In order to defray ex- penses of the paper, advertising space is sold to local merchants at the beginning of the school year. On December 16, 1959, the Desert Song and Trojan staffs gave a Christmas party in the band room for staff members and guests. On behalf of both staffs, Jeanette Nelson presented a cor- sage to Miss Chancellor in appreciation of her sponsorship. In the spring a few staff members were chosen to attend the press convention held at the University of Arizona for further training in publishing a better school newspaper.

Girls’ League The girls'work bears fruit as many couples enjoy the annual Girls' League. The purpose of the Girls' League is to provide a social outlet for the girls of CHS. In order to do this, the League has several activities each year. These activities include a Tea in May for the future freshmen, a banquet, a formal dance, and the state convention. The banquet this year was held in the fall. It was a semi-formal banquet with an Oriental theme. The annual formal dance was held on October 24, 1959. The gym was beautifully decorated in gold and white, fitting the theme of Bella Noche, which means beautiful night. Eight of the most outstanding members attended the State Convention held in Phoenix in April.

On December 18, the club presenteda Christmas program for the student body. The pro- gram was based on a nativity scene with a Christmas narration given by Jeanette Nelson. Those who took part in the nativity scene were: John Callicotte, Nancy A g u i n a g a, Pam Danenhauer, Wesley Owen, Bruce Miller, and Clifford Hicks. A brass quartet c o mp o s e d of Arleen Blair, Jimmy Scott, Norma Morris, and Mr. Morris, and the Concert Choir presented Christmas carols. On April 26 after much hard work and practice, the curtain rose on Stag Line, the junior- senior play. The play told the comic situation of the trials and tribulations that come upon a family when their daughter is about to be married; especially when that daughter has ayounger sister named Maudie . Silvia (Terri Murry) is the bride-to-be of Jerry (Bruce Miller), the ner- vous bridegroom, who comes to the wrong conclusion once too often. Jerry also has problems with Mrs. Farlington Smith (Mary Salcido), a society woman and one of his big clients. As bridesmaids, Sylvia chooses Ting (Gretna Phinizy) and Carol (Mary Albo). Snoots (Keith John- son) is an usher in the wedding . Mother (Sharon Gough) spends much of her time consoling Sylvia. Smitty (Stella Baker), the talkative dressmaker, is enough to give anyone ulcers over a wedding gown. Meanwhile , Father (Bob Tea) bemoans all the bills he is going to have to pay. To add to all the confusion the r e is Maudie (Sharon Smith), the small, fiesty, younger sister of Sylvia. Upon seeing Mac (Joe Kingsley), the handsome best man, Maudie starts her own private campaign. However, Davy (Wesley Owen) constantly manages to get into her way. Chi (Jimmy LeBar) is a friend of Davy's. He doesn't manage to remain an innocent bystander for long. To help Maudie are her three girl friends: Alix (Ruthie Fernandez), Julie (Nedra Webster), and Lysbeth (Donna Balke). Margaret (Arleen Blair) is the family maid and friend. The final scene of the play finds all ending well as everyone manages fo survive the confusion and Sylvia and Jerry are married.

Half-time performances at the football games, first public appearance of the year, gave the band members marching experience. Then on December 17, the Christmas concert was given by both the concert band and concert choir. One of the best concerts CHS has ever had. On February 13, the band again joined with concert choir to give a Pop concert. In order to raise funds for more music, admission was charged for this concert. Advertising space was also sold in the programs that were printed and given to every person in attendance. The last concert of the year was the spring concert on April 28. The band participated in the District Music Festival at Eastern Arizona Junior College in Thatcher in April. Before attending the district festival at Thatcher an elimination contest was held in the bandroom to dete rmine those soloists and ensembles that would participate in the festival. The following soloists took part in local competition: Arleen Blair, trumpet; Julio Coronado, drums; Roxie Goodman, clarinet; Bob Tea, trombone; and Ruth Fernandez, alto sax- ophone.

Bands, soloists, and ensembles with high ratings went from the district contest to the regional contest at the University of Ari- zona in May. Each month during the year an outstanding bandsman was selected. Persons selected were: September-Arleen Blair, October-Ruth F e r na nd e z , November-Bob Tea, December-Stephen Stanton, and January-Margaret Tea. Outstanding bandsmen were also chosen for February, March, April, and May. At the end of the school year one of the nine outstanding bandsmen was awarded a two-week scholarship to music camp at Arizona state College at Flagstaff.

Pep Club The Pep Club, organized in 1957, was formed for the purpose of improving the school spirit of fans at sports events and for creating interest among the students and the community for a coming year. By performing between halves at a basketball or football game, the Pep Club creates a more binding unity between home fans and the student section at the sports events, A good and active Pep Club can make a dull game seem better and a good game much better. 35 Conor AWARDS American History Award by Woodman of World...................................... ■ Band ......................................................

STEVE WEBSTER SENIOR HISTORY In September of 1956, the class of '60 gained their first view of CHS. We acquired new friends and started on the path of higher learning. Ninety freshmen will never forget the thrilling initiation day. After the initiation assembly, the class whitewashed the C on Shannon Hill. That evening we attended a swimming party given in our honor by the sophomore class. Officers for that year were: president, Alex Padilla; vice-president, Carol Scott; secretary, Terri Murry, treasurer, Lidia Hernandez; and student council representatives, Alex Padilla and Otila Lozano. The next spring, as sophomores, we initiated the freshmen and gave them a sock-hop. The officers for that year were: president, Alex Padilla; vice-president, John Callicotte; secretary, Lidia Hernandez; treasurer, Jeanette Nelson; and student council representatives, Joe Kingsley and Carol Scott. In our junior year we received our class rings. In the spring we were invited to attend the Junior-Senior Banquet. F ollowing the banquet we gave a prom. The prom theme was South Pacific. Members chosen for Boys' and Girls' State were Jeanette Nelson, Carol Scott, John Callicotte, and Alex Padilla. Junior year officers were: president, Carol Scott; vice-president, Arleen Blair; secretary, Cornilia Lucero; treasurer, Gloria Moran; and student council repre- sentatives, Joe Kingsley and Jeanette Nelson. In the early fall of 1959 sixty seniors resumed studies for their last year at CHS. We were led by these officers: president, Carol Scott; vice-president, Arleen Blair; secretary, Gloria Moran; treasurer, Helen Barriga; and student council representatives, Bruce Miller and Terri Murry. Our sponsors were Miss Chancellor and Mr. Ness. We shall remember such events as Senior Day at Tempe, Ditch Day, the Junior-Senior play, banquet, prom, baccalaureate on May 22, and graduation on May 25. 57 Autographs 58 Mary Rodriquez Vice-President Sharon Smith Secretary Molly Vielma Treasurer • 'I ' • Ruth Fernandez Student Council Representative JUNIORS The junior class was very active this year. The year was started with the elec- tion of officers . Those elected were: president, David Gonzales; vice-president, Mary Rodriquez; secretary, Sharon Smith; treasurer, Molly Vielma; and student council repre- sentatives, Ruthie Fernandez and Dan Danenhauer. Being unable to sell at the Clifton-Safford football game due to rain, the juniors were given two sock-hops after basketball games in order to raise money for the prom. The juniors also s p on s o r e d a bake sale at the high school after school. Members of the class brought baked goods to be sold. The purpose of the bake sale was to again raise more money for the prom. Ordering class rings was one of the exciting highlights of the year. The arrival date for the rings was set for March. Last, but not least, came the prom. A cotillion ball was held on April 23. The gym was decorated like an old southern plantation. Pastel rose colors were used. Senior class members and their dates were invited as guests.

The highlight of the year was the annual s o p h o m o r e swimming party in honor of the new fre shmen. Students elected by popular vote to lead the class were: Elva Loya, president; Benny Miranda, vice-president; Mary Hernandez, secretary; and Mary Silva, treasurer. Student council representatives were Larry Ross and Welta Thompson. Miss Minnie Meyer and Mr. James Patton were class sponsors. The sophomore class members participated in many school activ- ities and organizations. It is hoped that Clifton High School will wel- come this energetic class when they return as juniors in I960.

Joe Pena and Marcia Medina were elected as student council repre sentative s . Among the many duties of the enthusiastic fre shmen was the tra- ditional task of whitewashing the C . A swimming party for the fresh- men was given by the sophomores at the first of the year. Other activ- ities of the fre shmen included selling at the Clifton-Benson football game, sponsoring a sock-hop, and giving a return p a r t y for the sophomores. The fre shmen contributed a great deal to the life of Clifton High their first year and are looking forward to their next three years at good ole Clifton High.

The Trojans started their season against Silver City at Clifton. Displaying the winning spirit they showed throughout the season, they downed the Colts 38-7. Then against Duncan the following week, Clifton went on a scoring spree, defeating the Wildkats 45-0. This was the fir st conference game of the season. Lordsburg was next to meet its fate as they were dropped by the high scoring Trojans, 33-6. Clifton won the next three games, all conference games, as easily as they did the first three. The first--Thatcher, here--33-6. Next they rolled past Buena, there, 33-6. Then--Tombstone, there--55-6. The following week the Trojans went swimming. They hosted the Safford Bulldogs in a game that lasted only one half. It had rained for two days before the contest and the field was covered with about two inches of water. In the first half Clifton scored 33 points to Safford'sO. Safford of- ficially forfeited the game at the half. Then for the first time in the season the Trojans scored under 33 points in a game at home against Benson. Not quite up to par , the Trojans won 28-0. The final game of the season came on November 20 as the Trojans met the Wildcats of Morenci in the annual Copper Ingot game at Morenci. The Trojans showed their superiority by holding Morenci on the one foot line to win the game 6-0. This victory put the Ingot in the possession of CHS for the first time in four years. Several Trojans players were honored by being chosen to the Arizona Republic's All-State teams. Halfback Ernie DeLeon, a junior, was chosen for the first team. John Callicote and Edmund Medina were chosen for the second team. Honorable Mention awards were given to Jim Baker, Bob Brown, Joe Hernandez, and Roger Romero. 76 SCORES Clifton 7 Clifton 26 Clifton 25 Clifton 12 Morenci 7 Safford 12 Safford 6 Morenci 13 First Row: Gilbert Franco, Charles Boling, Stephen Stanton, David Gonzales, Joe Lopez, Bob Locke, Rocky Manuz, Wesley Owen.

The girls' volleyball ream oi umton naa tougn competition throughout the entire season. The Trojanettes' first game of the season was with Miami. The game was won under the strong leadership of captain, Virginia Lara, and co-captain, Arleen Blair. The Clifton girls then played at home against Thatcher. The Thatcher Eagles, however, proved to be a little more than the Trojanettes could handle. The won-lost record stood at 1-1. Duncan was next on the schedule. Although the girls put up a strong fight, they were defeated twice in a row by the overpowering Wildkats. The following game was at Eastern A r i z o n a Junior College at Thatcher. The Trojanettes proved to be a very good competition for the girls from EAJC. Clifton was defeated, but by a very small margin. In the last game of the scheduled season, against Miami, the Trojanettes really put forth their full d e t e r m i nat i o n and power to win the first game, 7-5, and the second game, 11-4. Clifton then went to the Invitational Tournament at Miami. With captain, Irene Urquidi, and co-captain, Arleen Blair, the Trojanettes played Globe in the first round and won. Then Clifton played and beat Miami. This entitled the Trojanettes to the first place trophy. Graduating seniors who will be leaving the team are: Lidia Hernandez, Arleen Blair, Vir- ginia Lara, and Irene Urquidi. B Squad Volleyball, kneeling: Mary Salcido, Bessie Trujillo, Margaret Aguinaga.

TROJANS WIN 17 The 1959-60 Trojan b a s k e t b a 11 squad started the season a g a i n s t the Morenci Wildcats. The Trojan five downed their first four opponents by large margins. Three of the games were B East Conference wins. During the Christmas holidays the Trojans met two Class A teams, Safford and Morenci, and defeated them to win the Fourth Annual Christmas Tournament held at Morenci. After Christmas the Trojans defeated Benson 59-33. The Trojan winning streak ended then. The Trojans were eked out in a thriller at Miami by the Vandals, 47-44. The following week the Trojans lost another game in an overtime. This time, it was to the Tombstone Yellowjackets, 38-37. This was the first Class B East Conference loss of the school year. But the battling Trojans didn't let the losses bother them. The following night, theydowned Buena in Bisbee by the score of 83-43. This victory started another winning streak that lasted for two weeks. In that time the Trojans defeated Buena, Benson, and Duncan. The night after their victory over Duncan the Trojans played Safford, there. The Bull- dogs of Safford avenged their loss to Clifton in the Christmas Tourney as the Trojans were downed, 54-44. The Trojans then marched on to win the remainder of the season's scheduled games. In the last game of the season the Trojans avenged their only B East Conference loss. The mighty Trojans marched past the Tombstone Yellowjackets, 52-32, in the Trojan gym. This ended the season with 15 wins and 3 losses. On February 25 and 27, the Trojans entered the District Tournament at Florence. The Tro- jans had won the Eastern section of the B East Conference. This earned them a bye in the first round of the tourney. In the second round the Trojans met and defeated the Thatcher Eagles by 20 points. The Marana Tigers were next played and defeated in the semi-finals of the tourney. This put the Trojans in the finals against the Superior Panthers.
