COPPER CAT QUILL AND SCROLL Booth Is Added For Candy Sales Thanks to the efforts of Phelps Dodge Corporation, the Copper Cat staff was able to move its annual candy sales at football games from a card table to a roomy booth. New members of the staff were assigned ad pages at the beginning of the year while experienced staff members finished pages assigned last spring. Later in the year the inexperienced journalists joined the veteran staffers in fighting for the typewriters and getting their pages returned to them to redo. The staff made trips to Safford and Clifton to sell advertisements and also had two subscription sales. Beginning photographers learned the art of taking pictures, how the cameras worked and how to develop and print their film. The photographers were constantly called upon to take pictures at after-school events and on weekends. Six members of the staff were initiated into the local chapter of the Quill and Scroll Society held at the Morenci Motel in May. Mr. John Glodis introduced the initiation ceremony which was conducted by advisor, Sandra Hudgens, and the senior members of the staff. Piano solos were provided by Ann Roche, Esther Perkins, and Kelly Hardcas- tle as entertainment. Also, Sandra Hudgens presented the Big “E” award to co-editors Sharon Towle and Esther Perkins. This award for efficiency was made possible by Josten’s American Yearbook Com- pany. The award was earned due to the promptness with which the Copper Cat staff met its deadlines. 19

STUDENT COUNCIL, ANYTOWN GIRLS AND BOYS STATE Traditional Float Returns Under the leadership of student body president, Richard Duran, the Student Council began the year by reintroducing the idea of floats for Homecoming festivities. The deci- sion was finally made to build one float on which the queen and her attendants would ride. Prior to Thanksgiving, Student Council members sold raffle tickets on a turkey. Several members attended the annual Student Council state convention held in Phoenix in De- cember. New activities were intro- duced including plans for crowning a Basketball Sweetheart and an award for the Outstanding Student Council member. Ann Roche and Maxine Glodis at- tended Girls State at the U of A. Ann was given the title of the Head of the Sanitation Department in her city. She was one of the twenty-one girls elected to the House of Repre- sentatives. Maxine was appointed Civil Defense Director for her city. She ran for the Justice of the Peace but lost in the primary elec- tion. Her city was named the Out- standing City. At Boys State held in Flagstaff at N.A.U., Richard Duran was named Treasurer for his city. Wes Edens was active in the Nationalist party. Rey Aguinaga entered the race for County Recorder and won. Soon after school ended last year, Morenci’s Anytown represen- tatives ventured to Mingus Moun- tain near Prescott. Every day the students participated in games and discussions.
