Classes begin; volleyball girls love cool water; football begins. With school opening in August, the refrigerated water fountain was the most popular spot in the Duncan High School, and one of the most familiar sights during the first weeks of the fall was this one, right, where volleyball players Kathy Thygerson, Ann Richardson, Jeane Nelson, Linda Payne, Sherrill Mortensen, Vicki Tippetts, Diane Nelson, Judy Johnson, Sandra Gentry line up for last slurp before rugged volleyball practice. Football practice began before school did, and football was the exciting feature of the early fall. Left: Lawery Rhodes, Mack McKeon, Ferryl Gale, Eddie Bejarano hold the ball against the Willcox Cowboys. Along with the athletic contests went band, cheerleaders and pom pons. Here they line up for half-time show at the afternoon game with Marana.

By the middle of September, it seemed as if school had been going on a long, long time - and yearbook photos were taken. Above left: Ed Hartner is adjusted just right by photographer. Then came the Greenlee County Fair - and the Industrial Arts boys had a busy booth. Above right: Robert Avila and Ray Wilson cook and serve hamburgers.
