A Very Dedicated Sponsor Mrs. Catherine Smith After overcoming difficult problems and challenges with courage and confidence, there will come a time when, we the students, have reached our ultimate goal. We give credit to those who have guided us toward our ambitions. We give this recognition to honor our teachers; who are devoted to their work of helping others. They are ever ready and willing to help; giving their ideas or sugges- tions, always patient and encouraging with an optimistic voice. Their responsibilities are many. At all times striving for their prime goal of academic teaching, counseling students, giving instructions, attending meetings, partici- pating in school and community projects, and guiding ex- tracurricular activities. The greatest honor we con give to educators who have successfully helped enrich another person ' s life is to show our appreciation and respect for them in accordance to principles of high honor. Because of her outstanding contributions to the students and the school we would like to in turn, dedicate to her the 1971 Chieftain, We recognize and salute, MRS. CATHERINE SMITH.

Time Is Important To Cobre High School Students pK .j K 1 P T 1 B 1 iBl r 1 i l J 4 uB S jH Cobre students spend their time in many ways. A students ' school doy is spent in classes, in the halls, among friends, at club meetings or in study halls. Mike Acosta uses his spare time on his Honda 350 as he takes a spin down the hill. There are many other boys that find enjoyment on their motorcycles. Trying to beat the tardy bell is Benny Norero, as he barely makes it to his sixth period class. For him it saves olot of explaining in trying to get an excuse. To some getting to the lunch line is a big con- cern in trying to be first, as Charlotte Sios, Bobby Medina and Eddie Tovar hurry to the cafeteria. For them it means extra time after lunch for other activities. Getting a drink of water between classes is very difficult because of the crowd, so Gilbert Guadiano, Paul Flores and Andy Gomez, fake a few moments for a drink while halls are empty. Students in typing work hard so as not to get behind time. Determi- nation and well-learned typing skills prepare students to accomplish a set goal in a limited period as Mr. Thompson gives a timewriting.
