Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1966 volume:

THE TROJAN CLIFTON HIGH SCHOOL IFTON. ARIZONA The three elements of copper, climate and cattle comprise the story of the Greenlee County area of which Clifton is the county seat. The present court house was built in 1911. Morenci is the site of the Phelps Dodge Corporation copper mining operation- -the largest in Arizona. The open-pit mine, started in 1937, is shown above. Clifton, five miles down the hill from tiie mining hub and nestling securely in the mountain canyons is the residence of many Phelps Dodge employees. The PD payroll is the largest factor in the support of many other independent businesses. For many years there has been a sound cattle raising industry in Greenlee County, and there is a growing tourism in the region. The expedition of Coronado is said to have traveled through this area 425 years ago. US Highway 666 on which Clifton is situated is called the Coronado Trail after the famous Spanish explorer. From Clifton to Hannagan Meadows, to Alpine, to Springerville--135 miles of room to stretch. Our view on the title page looking from the top oftheMogol-lon Rim shows a series of mountains in deep blue from whence the county gets its name. Arizona’s first railway was constructed from the foot of the Longfellow incline to the smelter, then located at Clifton. The Copper Head is reported to be one of the first railroad engines used in the Clifton area. Today it sets proudly in the Phelps Dodge Mercantile parking lot adjacent to the steel bridge across the San Francisco River. Clifton boasts of a jail from which no one has ever escaped. Built in 1878, the story goes that a Mexican chopped it out of hard rock, then became its first prisoner when he shot up a saloon while celebrating the occasion. 2 TABLE OFCONTENTS Dedication 4 Administration Faculty - Cur ricular . . . . 9 Seniors 25 J uniors 37 Sophomores 41 Freshmen . . . . . .45 Sports 49 Activities Royalty 99 Student Life 105 Ad vertising 115 I ndex 136 The present American Legion Hall was the first company office here, built about 1874. It was said to have been attacked several times by the Apaches. In the early days it was called CASA GRANDE. To the east of Clifton lies New Mex- ico. The Needle’s Eye is one of the more spectacular sights to be seen when driving to Mule Creek. On south of Clifton are rolling, green, hazy hills, ranging as far as the eye can see until the fertile farm land of the Duncan valley is reached. 3 DEDICATION Miss Minnie Meyer has served Clifton High School for many years as a mathematics instructor. This year is Miss Meyer’s last year at C.H.S. We, the staff of the 1965-’66 Trojan, salute you Miss Meyer and thank you for your years of help and service. You will long be remembered for your contributions to social and academic life at C.H.S. With deepest admiration, we the staff, dedicate this 1965-1966 Trojan to Miss Dorine Chancellor. This token of appreciation is small in comparison to the endless service she has rendered to the students of Clifton High School and to the community as a whole. After receiving her Master of Science Degree in 1959 at the University of Illinois, Miss Chancellor began teaching business education at C.H.S. Miss Chancellor has been the sponsor of the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore Classes, Annual, Newspaper, and Cheerleaders. At present she is sponsor of the F.T.A. She is active in several civic activities. She is treasurer of the B.P.W. Club and is District Director of District 2. She is a member of the Clifton Woman's Club, Delta Kappa Gamma and Delta Pi Epsilon. She attends the First Presbyterian Church in Clifton. SUPERINTENDENT Guido P.

He engages in professional counseling with individuals and groups of students who have problems of any nature which inhibit their ability to learn. He provides an atmosphege in which these students can come to their counselor to solve these problems openly and effectively thereby improving their ability to learn and to profit from the instructional program. 8 Mr. Lawrey helps Bob Padilla during one of his counseling periods. ? fcl Bachelor of Arts, 1938 Arizona State University Track Coach MR. ALBERT A. ALVARADO INDUSTRIAL ARTS In the modern world of today, students must have a strong educational background. Special skills help to broaden their opportunities for better jobs in this mechanical age. Hammers banging and power tools whining lend a light musical note to the basement of the gym as fundamentals of carpentry and industrial arts are being absorbed by industrious students. 10 Bachelor of Science, 1956 Master of Science, 1959 University of Illinois FT A Sponsor MISS DORINE CHANCELLOR BUSINESS EDUCATOR JJJ, FFF, KKK” sounds through the halls of Clifton High School as basic and advanced touch typing is being taught to business oriented students. Typing I teaches fundamental typing skills and correct care of typewriters.

General Business informs the student of business procedures as they affect the consumer such as budgeting money, writing checks, buying goods and insurances. II MRS. STELLA W. GOSPER HOME ECONOMICS “Ummm!” Tantalizing aromas of pastries, meats, candy and cookies encircle the home economics building as students learn the art of preparing delicious meals. They not only learn to prepare meals that have flavor but ones that have a variety of color and texture using the fundamental nutrients. With the fashion show in mind, they start their sewing projects. Before scissors start “snipping,” the girls learn about the straight grain of material, direc -tion of nap, and other vital facts needed to complete attractive clothing. Bachelor of Science, 1941 University of Arizona Girls' League Co-sponsor MRS. MAXI ME L. EDDY ENGLISH Bachelor of Arts, 1940 Oklahoma College for Women Dramatics Club Sponsor Senior Class Co-Sponsor “Whan that Aprille with his shoures soote’’ echoes through the minds of College English students as exam time rolls around. Chaucer’s “Canterbury Tales” is just one of the literary works studied in this class. English III students devote their class time to both literature and grammar. Business forms and good grammatical practices are the main points covered by Business English. To provide appreciation of literature, book reports are required by all classes for each six week period. MISS MINNIE H. MEYER MATHEMATICS “Two triangles are similar if an angle of one equals an angle of the other and the sides including these angles are proportional.” Plane geometry is just one of the mathematical courses offered at CHS. Beginning math, Algebra I and II, Solid geometry, and Trigonometry also “strain” the minds of students. Algebra I is taught by Miss Lois Seibel while the other math classes are headed by Miss Meyer. Bachelor of Science Missouri University Master of Science University of Southern Cal. Student Council Co-sponsor Sophomore Class Co-sponsor 14 MR- LARRY OLIVER SPANISH AND PAINTING Bachelor of Arts, 1964 Arizona State University Freshman Class Sponsor Spanish Club Sponsor Entender y hablar.” Spanish students not only learn the language itself, but the country's traditions and cultural heritage. The Audio-Lingual Method was chosen for the teaching of modern foreign languages in order to indicate the emphasis placed on the development of listening and speaking skills. The use of this title does not mean that this program neglects the equally important skills of reading and writing. The program is based on the conviction that language is first of all speech, and that the ability to communicate by means of spoken words is of primary importance. A new class offered this year was painting. The following media were used in painting: water colors, tempera, and toward the end of the year some students worked in oils. Not only painting was stressed but also drawing. Charcoal, chalk and pencils were used for these drawings. Bachelor of Arts, 1956 Master of Arts, 1957 Harding College Honor Society Sponsor Senior Class Co-Sponsor MR. EUGENE OUZTS SCIENCE ‘ Today, everyone realizes the importance of the study of science in our secondary schools,'’ stated Mr. Patton, CHS principal, as he announced Bertha Villescas as the 1966 winner of the Bausch and Lomb Science Award.

Mr. Sadlier also instructs two classes of concert choir and prepares elementary music students for participation in the Trojan high school band. Bachelor of Music 1949 Loyola University Master of Music 1962 Louisiana State University 18 MR. CRUZ SALAS BOVS’ P.E. AM) METAL SHOP Bachelor of Arts 1959 Arizona State College C Club Sponsor Football Coach Assistant Track Coach “Are they metal shop students or have we been invaded by men from outer space?” When the boys are clad in their face masks, goggles, and asbestos aprons it is really hard to tell under which category they fall. The emphasis in metal shop is placed on job training; the preparation of students in developing skills needed for job placement and advancement. But running parallel with these objectives is the philosophy that capable hands and good work habits learned now add up to a healthy way of life; a by-product of working creatively. Mr. Salas is also athletic director and boys P.E. teacher. MR.FRED SCOTT SOCIAL STUDIES Audio visual aids about those who have contributed to our history as well as charts and maps are used to supplement the lectures in history as well as civics classes. Mr. Fred Scott instructs classes in American History, World History and Civics. Mr. John Lawrey also teaches a Civics class. The psychology course taught by Mr. Lawrey is designed to provide the individuals with an opportunity to understand his own behavior and that of others.

The Trojan football team, under the direction of head coach, Cruz Salas, was the pre-season choice for the Class “B East Conference cellar. Coach Salas took charge of the 1965 squad and gradually molded it into one of the strongest teams in the state. The ‘65” season started poorly when a scrapping Ray Bearcat team won a close 6 point decision over the Trojans. Then the Trojans invaded the home of a tough Eastern conference foe and defeated Thatcher 14-0. Traveling to Safford, Clifton was downed by a score of 31-6. The following week on their home field, the Trojans were victorious over the Tombstone Yellow-jackets with a torrid passing attack, 25-7. Determined to remain in the win column, the Trojans visited Duncan and romped to a 24-6 victory. The following Friday at Clifton, Clifton assumed an 18-12 victory over the Benson Bobcats. Then Clifton rolled over Seton by a score of 20-0. At Morenci the Trojans were beaten by the score 13-6 although the local team had the edge in the statistics department. Then came the dramatic and exciting climax of the Trojan season. Facing the winners of the Class B West conference, Clifton experienced “their finest hour. Defeating Antelope 40-14 made the Clifton Trojans the Class “B Lower-State Champs, and joy prevailed in Clifton. The week that followed, however, brought sadness to CHS as the Trojans lost their chance to become the state champions at the hands of the Ray Bearcats. Fighting uphill all season, the Trojans never lost their spirit of determination. Although they failed to register a win in the State Finals, returning members gained valuable experience which will help them in their future endeavors on the Trojan varsity. Although the season did not end as we all would have desired, the Trojans of 1965 will not soon be forgotten.

Practice at seven in the morning?” These were typical comments made by Coach Seibel and some of the volleyball girls this year. The first few weeks of practice were hectic but in the end, the Coach turned out a pretty good team. The word this year for the team was Victory.” And considering the number of inexperienced players, the team made good that vow for victory. At the tournament held at Willcox, 58 the hopes for 1st place were smashed when Willcox defeated the team. But the girls came back strong to beat Benson and Thatcher, earning the 3rd place berth. This year’s Most Valuable Player Award went to Penni Nichols. Evelyn Madrigal received the Most Improved Player Award and Janice Sindelar and Johnnie Subia received the Captain and Co-Captain Awards. High scorers were: Penni Nichols, A-Squad; Janice Sindelar, B-Squad; and Delrena Hooker, C-Squad.

Douglas Craig, manager, and Coach Lawrey discuss which moves to make. 62 The Clifton Trojans, under the direction of coach, John Lawrey, enjoyed a very successful 1965-1966 season and thrilled the Trojan fans with some of the highest scoring basketball games in the school's history. The season began with an exciting upset win over Safford, 63-62. Building momentum, the Trojans gained victories over Morenci. In their first meeting, the Trojans edged the rival Wildcats in four overtimes, 61-60. Their second meeting, later in the season, saw the Trojans retain their mastery over the Morenci team, 67-62. The Trojans then journeyed to Benson to battle the Bobcat basketball team, and were outscored 65-54. However, the Trojans avenged this early season defeat by topping the Bobcats in Clifton, 87-58. Another conference foe that fell victim to the Trojan team was Thatcher. The Eagles were outplayed in both contests. Robert Aguinaga. Stan Morgan, Richard I.eBar. 78-62 and 91-56, The Trojans were also successful against Duncan. In their first meeting, Clifton edged the Wild-kats, 62-58. The Trojans again defeated the Wildkats later in the season by a score of 79-65. Clifton’s mosttrouble-some opponent was Tombstone. Clifton overwhelmed the Yellowjackets in an early season contest, 77-57. However, the Yellowjackets retaliated and trounced the Trojans in an amazing scoring battle in late-season, 111-91. The two teams finished the regular season tied for the conference championship each with 6 wins and 2 losses. In Willcex, site of the conference playoffs, Tombstone won the conference throne by defeating the Trojans, 97-88.

The 1966 boys’ tennis season began what proved to be a very profitable year with their first game against Safford on March 4. Returning lettermen this year are John Aguirre, David Webster, Robert Padilla, Bobby Gutierrez, and Joey Rietz. This year’s boys' tennis team was the largest in over ten years. Six promising freshmen reported to Coach Fred Scott to give Clifton a very bright outlook for the future. These boys were Ricky Villescas, Sam Cueto, David Esquivel, Albert Montoya, Carmel Tellez, and Jimmy McBride. Roland Medina a sophomore, also came out for his first year of duty. The Trojan netters competed against Safford, Thatcher, Duncan, Tombstone, and Benson, playing two matches with each. 70 PRACTICE AND MORE PRACTICE Top prospects in the field of tennis freshmen E.

The baseball players opened the first day of practice with a very bright outlook toward the oncoming season. Everyone tried his best to make this season the best ever. The Trojan team was boosted by several returning lettermen plus several underclassmen ready to help out at any time. Those returning lettermen were: Jesus Quinonez, Serapio Gonzalez, Richard LeBar, John Batzer, Danny Garcia and Billy Gonzalez. Those working toward their first varsity baseball letter were: Dale Lyall, Dennis Stacy, Doug Stacy, Bobby Quinonez, Mike Roybal, Pete Trejo, Ray Castaneda, Buddy Aguirre, Mike Padilla, Alex Martinez, Richard Ateneio, Robert Estrada and David Sanchez. The schedule consisted of 14 ball games, including 8 conference games. The teams played were Morenci, Duncan, Cobre, Fort Grant, Thatcher, Benson, and Tombstone. Last year the Trojans had to forfeit the March 27 Benson game because of an A.I.A. ruling. Everyone expected the season to be a huge success though with the possibility of going to state as did the football team. 72 TEAM SHOWS PROMISE Richard LeBar. catcher; and Serapio Gonzalez, pitcher, discuss tactics on the mound. 73 Richard LeBar, who is lying down on the job. is tagged out by Dale Lyall. JV’S SHOW GREAT POTENTIAL The CHS Junior Varsity team, under the coaching of Mr. Andrew Brown, compiled a 4-1-1 record during the 1964 season.

The thinlies worked hard and had a very successful season. There were four seniors returning for their fourth year of track. They were sprinters Manuel Buttner and Charles Ferguson and weightmen Porfirio Ruiz and Pete Romero. The boys who are out for the third time are distance men Manuel Saenz, Cor-nelio Chacon and Manuel Jaramillo, sprinters Fillmore Tellez, hurdler Sam Chavez and weightman Frank Barriga. There are also innumerable underclassmen who were showing great promise. The first meet was the Clifton Invitational which involved seven different schools in the district. The Ray Relays came the next week. Then perhaps the most competitive meet of the year came when the tracksters journeyed to the Invitational held at Safford. The later weeks compiled dual meets with Duncan, Pima, Morenci and Willcox. There was also a tri-meet with Pima and ASDB. The District meet was held at Benson on May 14 to qualify boys for “state” and end the regular season.

C.H.S. has two teams of cheerleaders that are chosen each year by a committee made up of faculty and students. There are two teams of three or four members each. One of these teams leads varsity cheers and the other, junior varsity. Members of the cheerleading groups receive letters for their work and must meet the same scholastic standards as members of the teams. 78 JV Cheerleaders: Roseann Garza, Rebecca Jurado. C.H.S. HOMECOMING FOR Homecoming events started off with a “bang” as the homecoming parade proceeded to the Stanton Stadium where the floats would await exhibition in half-time ceremonies. During half-time, the floats circled the field and the football players honored their parents. Each mom was presented with a corsage as the parents were introduced on the field. The finale of the evening came when “C” Club President Richard LeBar crowned Gloria Garza Sports Queen. He then presented her a bouquet of long stemmed red roses. Gloria’s attendants were: Penni Nichols, Lucille Ruiz, Johnnie Subia, and Ernie Cisneros. The queen and her attendants were escorted by senior football players. Honored also were the senior members of the team: Richard LeBar, Robert Garza, Martin Hernandez, Dale Lyall, Jesus Quinonez, Robert Estrada, Harold NofChissey, Pete Romero, Alex Lucero, Jr., Douglas Craig, Manuel Jaramillo, and Danny Garcia.

It is composed of one representative from each club and two from each class, four officers, and the faculty sponsors. Miss Minnie Myer and Mr. Fred Scott. The Student Council meets each Monday to decide upon issues which involve our 300 students. Each year various projects are sponsored by the Student Council for the benefit of all students; for example, the charity drive, flag raising each morning, student faculty banquet, western day, bookstore, concessions at basketball games, sending delegates to state and national conventions, and the election of the Student Council officers to serve the next year’s students. Candidates for Western Day King and Queen are asked to parade before a panel of faculty judges following an assembly. The couple is chosen then and presented that evening at the sports event of that particular season. 82 LESSON IN DEMOCRACY VICE-PRESIDENT FILLMORE TELLEZ TREASURER RAY FRASQUILLO This page was paid for by Phelp Dodge Mercantile Company in the interest of student government. 83 HONOR AND GO HAND Top to Bottom, L to R: R.

Honor Society consists of students who have maintained a “B” average in grades, petitioned for membership and have had the recommendation of two faculty members on their petition. In addition to the honor of membership, the members of the Honor Society are exempt from semester exams providing that they have an “a” average up to examination time and the teacher’s approval. Freshmen are eligible to membership after their first semester in high school. 84 PRIVILEGES IN HAND DAVID WEBSTER CAROL FERGUSON BERTHA VILLESCAS TERRY LUJAN BOB PADILLA Most conscientious students have the motivating ambition to one day attain the highest honor that can be bestowed on a high school student, recognition as a member of National Honor Society. N.H.S. is limited to juniors and seniors who have a cumulative grade average of 1.5 or better and are approved by the faculty. Membership in the National Honor Society carries great weight in the awarding of scholarships and other awards.

This year in order to promote interest in the club, an “FTA Day” was held. Members wore tags saying “I'm an FTA member wouldn’t you like to be one, too?” The day was a huge success, bringing several new members into the club.

The Girls’ League is a senior high organization open to all girls in the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. It provides a wonderful opportunity for girls who are new to C.H.S. to get acquainted with other girls. The main project of the year is the annual Girls’ League Formal. This year’s theme was “Autumn Leaves.” The cafeteria was dazzling in its whirl of colored lights, falling leaves and faint moonlight. The girls have also sold cookbooks to friends and relatives in order to buy the school a silver tray. By continuing the sale of cookbooks, the organization hopes to add pieces each year until a complete silver service can be presented to the school. 91 Desert Song Published At Clifton High School FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1966 CLIFTON. ARIZONA “The Desert Song,” the official newspaper of Clifton High School, is published triweekly by the associated students of the CHS Publications class. Upon publication it is then printed by the Gila Printing and Publishing Company of Safford, Arizona. Stories are as signed by the editor to the reporters, who then go about looking for information on their assigned stories while picking up other newsworthy items that might make another story. “Staff meetings” might be carried on by the class prior to publication to discuss interesting topics for editorials, features, etc. Typing, copyreading, and precise layout turns the class into a newsroom during the week of publication. Some copy is transported to the printers on the Thursday before issuance of the paper while the rest of the copy is delivered upon completion that Sunday. The class has an exchange department where other high school and college newspapers from all over the state and parts of the nation are traded with “The Desert Song.” “The Desert Song” is distributed free of charge to students, faculty, advertisers, and subscribers and has for 37 years been the “Voice of Clifton High School.” THE DESERT SONG “We ore proud to be Trojan Published every three weeks except during vacation period by the Clifton High School Publications Department, Clifton, Arizona STAFF Editor-In-Chief — Carol Ferguson Assistant Editor .........................................................

This year the 1966 TROJAN staff ■really went to work to turn out an annual that portrayed all of the events of the year. Everyone helped: salesmen, both advertising and annual; business manager, photographers, and the editor. Some of the extras added this year were colored endsheets, a color page, and a Senior signature papre. Many hours were spent placing oictures, identifying them, indexing names, writing copy, cropping pictures and enlarging them. But it was well worth it if the staff has succeeded in giving you an annual you will enjoy. Work cn t he annual began in August and continued until the last annual was distributed. This year's theme was the historical and scenic country in and around Cliftcn. We hope we have done justice not only to the scenic spots around Clifton, but to the wealth of historical lore found in this area as well.

The wail of a sax, accompanied by the bass viol’s muffled 'thung, sliced the dimness of the transformed cafeteria and wafted unhurriedly over and around the shuffling dancers. Familiar windows were disguised by crepe-paper streamers, and here and there a strategically placed corn shock helped create a harvest atmosphere. The theme Autumn Leaves” was carried out very successfully this year as the stage was decorated with a large mountain featuring a running stream and a big harvest moon shining onto the scene. The ceiling and walls were covered with brown, yellow, orange, red, and green streamers to give the feeling of falling leaves. The tables were covered with white table cloths and scattered autumn leaves. Bob Burke's orchestra from Thatcher provided the music for a dance-filled evening. DRAMATICS CLUB PRESENTS The comical production of “Room and Bored” was hilariously presented by a fifteen member cast of talented students on November 10, 1965. Directed by Mrs. Maxine Eddy, this 3-act farce kept the audience in stitches. The characters and those receiving the parts are as follows: Raymond Collins, Greg Berver; Sylvia Collins, Veronica Vielma; Jean Collina, Deane Smith; Tony Foster, Manuel Buttner; Claudia Collins, Glenda Bonine; Dorothy Foster, Sandra Stevens; Mrs. Aiken, Nancy Dunagan; Clyde Aiken, David Webster; Craven Bentley, Richard LeBar; Silas MacNabb, John Batzer; Mrs. Audubon, Marilyn Baker; Nell Bowden, Betty Freeman; Mr. O’Reilly, Charles Ferguson; Mrs. Cavendish, Janice Sindelar; Zeena Deever, Zena Mitchell; O’Reilly children, freshmen. Junior Director was Penni Nichols; Stage Manager, Tom Aguilar; and prompters were Becky Jurado and Irene Fierro. The diligence of the cast, director, and numerous committees all combined their efforts to make “Room and Bored” a success. 108 ROOM AND BORED” The O'Reilly children and pets descend on the Collins family. Hard work before the presentation of the play was a common scene. THE FUN AND HAPPINESS IN TRAVELING AND ACCEPTING TROPHIES This is a football team? Well, this is how they look while getting ready to leave for an out-of-town game. Hurry up! Volleyball girls are seen getting ready to go to Willcox for the district play-off. The girls came out third in the district, being beaten by Willcox and Duncan. rnnr - j a mmm The basketball boys are all ready to go to Parker for play-offs. Parker beat them but the TROJANS in turn beat Antelope. 110 ARE PART OF THE GAME Robert Garza and Dickie LeBar accept Class B East Division Football trophy. Jesus Quinonez receives a letter for varsity basketball. Janice Sindelar and Johnnie Subia accept 3rd place volleyball trophy. Ill The winter of 1965-66 sawtwo feats of nature create excitement in Clifton. Due to an uncommon amount of rain and unseasonably warm weather, the San Francisco River reached flood levels during the Christmas holidays. The water reached bridge level where Coronado Boulevard crosses the river. The once familiar San Francisco River was somewhat changed. The changes weren’t drastic changes, but subtle ones. Where there was no river wall, the banks were eaten away, and the once rocky river bed was covered with a thick layer of silt. The rains that accompanied, or caused the floods also created dangers or caused damages. The rocks which came off the mountains were much in evidence. To the surprise of Clifton residents, Tuesday, January 18, brought a layer of snow to our fair town. It is common for it to snow at least once a year but it very seldom settles on the ground. This year students had their hopes raised that because of the snow they would be dismissed from classes. These hopes were in vain. Classes were held on the usual schedule but lunch hour was a turmoil of flying snowballs. 112 THAT FINAL DAY--19 6 6 TEENAGERS TODAY ADULTS It seems as though many years have gone by since we were all little kids with very few worr'es. Now, here we are all grown up and in our last year of school. It seems almost frightening. Graduation will be a time when we all look back over the years and remember all the joys and sorrows that we have experienced. It is going to be a very sad occasion, even though we all may be anxious for the final day to come. It is going to be such a turning point in our lives, the day that we finally realize that there is no turning back to the memories of the long years. It will be the time that we learn the final lesson of our 12 years . . .how to look the world squarely in the face. Think of those of us who will not be able to face our new role as adults. Now, we will step from our world of childish hurts and fears and greet the offered role of adulthood, which may carry many more miseries than we have known. Are we all so capable? For now it is goodbye to all our childhood and high school days ... only our minds and the pages of our scrapbooks and diaries can ever hold all of it's wonders. TOMORROW 113 MEiMO... I i Wi During this past summer and school year we, the staff have really learned what work is. We have worked hard to give you what we hope is the best annual you have had yet. The time in between deadlines, has been hectic but fun-filled hours. Trying to get club pictures to turn out and copy ready has really worn us to a frazzle. But it was worth it. We cut every corner we could this year to have the annual come in early. And, surprises of surprises, it did. We would like to express our gratitude to the following people for the help and understanding they have given us. First of all, thanks a lot Mrs. Lynda Wade for everything. For without your ideas and criticisms there would be no annual. Next we would like to thank all the faculty members for allowing us to barge in and take pictures at any time. We also would like to express our sincere gratitude to Miss Marjorie Johnson of Morenci for all her help and suggestions at Publications Workshop last summer. Last of all we would like to thank everyone who helped us this year to turn out what we think is a great yearbook: businessmen, parents, photographers, and the student body.
