THE 1957 COPPER CAT VOLUME 12 MORENCI HIGH SCHOOL MORENCI, ARIZONA 1

... is many things to many people: it provides our families and us with employment, homes, churches and schools. Unique among the towns of this world, it exists high upon the mountain tops, because here are vast natural deposits of copper. These deposits were dis- covered in 1864, and Morenci became the first copper mining camp in Arizona. Since the mine properties were purchased by Phelps Dodge Cor- poration in 1921 and the open pit was developed in 1937, the Morenci mine has become the largest copper-producing mine in Arizona and the second largest in the United State. Last year approximately 250 million pounds of copper were pro - duced here for national defense and countless industrial purposes. The Morenci open pit is a vast amphitheater cut into the sides of a mountain. It rises in a series of ledges, each 50 feet high and 100 feet wide, and embraces a square mile in area. The proportions are so huge that the mammoth electric shovel--of five yard capacity or I ten tons a bite--and long diesel-drawn trains appear to be tiny ants crawling along the terrace. We salute our town and the company which has been instru- mental in bringing us together and propose that you visit with us in our school, which represents a cross section of the nation, and where the individual student shares common goals and activities. We live. . . 2
