Page 20 The Hassayamper L’Envoie When the English exams are over, And the history tests are done, When the last assignment is given, Schools over, and we’re too tired for fun, We shall rest, and gee but we’ll need it; Lie down for a six weeks or two, Till Miss Coleman, the best of good teachers, Shall set us to work anew. And those who were bright shall be happy; They shall study the next years course, And scratch on a ten league tablet, With knowledge from a hidden source. They shall have new books to learn from, Geometry, and English three, They will work for an aeon at studies, And tired they’ll never be. Easily will she grade them, No one will ever flunk; And no one will work for others, But no one’s hopes will be sunk. And each for the joy of learning, And each in his separate class, Shall write just as he pleases For the grades he must get to pass. —Alice Hill. Courses Offered at P, H. S.

The second team deserves credit as well as the first, for many hours have been spent in preparation by both. The question for debate this year was: “Resolved that a private corporation be granted a franchise to build and operate a power dam on the Colorado river at a suitable point within the State of Ari- zona.” The first debate was held with Jerome. The decision was unanimous for Prescott. The next debate was with Snowflake and was held at Flagstaff. Again Prescott was victorious, thus winning the championship of Northern Arizona. The third debate was with Scottsdale at Prescott and was won by Scottsdale. The members of our teams are: First Team....................Stuart Houston, Dixon Fagerburg Second Team..............Charles Humphreys and Claude Bate Page 38 The Hassayamper The Lettermen’s Club HIS year began a new era in the annals of the Lettermen’s Club. In Feb- ruary of this year the club was reorganized, a new constitution was drawn up with stabler foundations, and the organization was started off with much enthusiasm. The new club is one that will be prized by all, and it is certain that it will be much more interesting with its new constitu- tion built on a solid basis.

RESCOTT HIGH SCHOOL is very proud of its orchestra. We believe that quality counts more than quantity here. The orchestra has responded readily when asked to help in school entertainments. It has played at several plays and gave valuable service in assisting the Glee Club in the concert which it gave. Mr. Barnett is the director and much credit is due VIOLINS: Ellen Burke Tom Rigden Dixon Fagerburg David Dunning Martha Hennig PIANO: Dorothy Hennig CORNETS: Bert Corgiat E. L. Barnett Claude Cline SAXOPHONES: Bob Yount DRUM: William Vaughan Vincent Haselfeld Sally Hall Page 43 The Hassayamper Band RESCOTT HIGH SCHOOL has a band to be proud of. It has increased in membership over that of last year. Each member does his part and all are more enthusiastic than ever over this activity. Under Mr. Barnett’s able directorship, the band is improving from year to year. It has ren- dered valuable services in football parades. If school spirit is judged by the band, our spirit is splendid. The members are: CORNET: E. L.

Make islands of the highest hills, Form great seas from tiny rills, Flood the mountains, flood the vales, Down the ocean, stop the sails, Waste all the water of Heaven’s yield But hear our plea, and spare the field! —Fred Cromwell. Wouldn’t It Be Funny--If: Catherine would slight instead of Favour? Mary were a baker instead of a Miller? Anna Mary were a good E instead of a Goodell? Laura were latches instead of Keays ? Mary Kate were panes instead of Sills ? Margaret were sodertown instead of Soderburg ? Jack were a new woman instead of a Newman ? Lillian were a price instead of a Raitt? Marjorie were rough instead of Leavell ? Miss Bosley were a walnut instead of a Hazel ? Jane were a mountain instead of a Hill ? Miss Norton were a daisy instead of a Violet?

Miss Davis were an oyster instead of a Pearl? —Ola Le May. Page 4G The Hassayamper P. H. S. Football With six Iettermen as a nucleus, Coach DeViver set out in September to put out a championship team- The season was very successful, the team winning five out of seven contests; losing to Jerome once, and also to Clarkdale. Hicks and Simpson, our undisputed stars, were both given honorable mention on the Arizona Republican’s All State Mythical Team. This is how the scores ran: Prescott . 19 Flagstaff Jerome 6 Prescott .. 13 20 Prescott 18 Jerome 13 Prescott . 14 Clrakdale 36 Prescott .. 32 Williams 7 Prescott . 66 Winslow 0 Prescott 106 y Kingman 0 Prescott .268 Opponents 82 Page 48 The Hassayamper Boys’ Basketball ITH only four lettermen left from last year, Coach DeVivier developed a shot passing- team, losing only one conference game, arid winning the county cup. The team went south for the State tournament and did very well for their first appearance at that meet. They lost to the State Champions by five points. The next day the boys won from Nogales, but were defeated by Tucson. After the team returned from the South they encountered the Prescott Cowboys and defeated them by a ten point margin. On the Northern trip Prescott won from Jerome by two points and lost to St. Johns. They lost to Snowflake in the semi-finals by two points. For their good sportsmanship they won the T. D. Jessuppe Trophy and they also placed two men, Hicks and Lepage, on the All Northern Arizona Mythical first team. Johnny Mar- chello was placed on the second team. The latter was also the higby point man of the tournament. The Northern Arizona games are as follows: Prescott 41 ' Jerome 20 Prescott 13 e Clarkdale 4 Prescott 11 Clarkdale 22 Prescott 47 • Flagstaff 11 Prescott 43 • Camp Verde 18 Prescott 34 • Winslow 23 Prescott - 46 Holbrook 23 Prescott 24 Winslow Prescott 259 Opponents 127 FLAGSTAFF TOURNAMENT 41 40 38 Prescott Prescott Prescott 43 35 36 Jerome ...

Miss Brink- meyer developed an unusually good team, who, like their Badger brothers, used the short passing game successfully. The members of the “First String” were: Lillian Raitt, captain; Margaret Orthel and Pearl Davis, guards; Lucille Dumont, jumping center; Maricate Sills, running center; Bertha Rosenblatt, Mary Humphreys and Jane Hill, forwards.

Although they did not accomplish their ends, they did very well, considering their great handicap in not having a coach. The girl’s team was composed of Betty Kastner, Lilliam Raitt and Louise Weil. The boy’s team included Richard Yeomans, Jack Flinn and Maurice Tovrea. Prescott High School Track Team Last year the Badgers were also handicapped in track, and that by not having a single letterman back from the preceding year’s team. Prescott took part in three track meets: the first against Jerome, the second against Clarkdale, and the third one at the Northern Arizona Teacher’s College. The following men received letters: Hicks, Middleton, Shaw, Cromwell, Simpson and Patterson.

Lillian Monroe read the class poem written by herself. JUNIOR PROM. June 4, 1925. The Junior Prom, held in honor of the class of ’25 was one of the big functions of the year. The auditorium was beautifully decorated by a network of varied colors of crepe paper. The stage where the orchestra sat was also very attractively trimmed. SENIOR-FRESHMAN DANCE Sept. 18, 1925. Amid kiddy-cars and tricycles the Senior class gave the first party of the season, in honor of the Freshmen. All the new teachers were introduced with the Freshies. If any were bashful to start with, they soon overcame their bashfulness and had a jolly good time with the rest. Suckers were given as rewards to the Frosh for their share in furnishing fun. SOPHOMORE PARTY October 23, 1925- For the second part of the season, the Sophomores carried out the Hallow’en color scheme. Streamers of black and orange led from all sides to the huge center decora- tion. Ghosts and black cats adorned the stage. HARD TIMES PARTY October 7, 1925. This was given by the Junior class on October 7, in the high school auditorium. The room was decorated with colorful streamers forming squares on all sides of the room, and one huge square for the center. For the best costume among the girls, Francis Hicks received the prize and for the boys, Maurice Tovrea. FRESHMAN PARTY December 3, 1925. The Freshmen overcame their bashfulness and gave the High school a real party. They showed that they had some real pep. The gym was decorated in mistletoe and evergreens. A new feature for one of the extras was introduced, a balloon dance. SENIOR HOP December 19, 1925. Even with a shortage of money, the Seniors staged their Hop with great success. This was the last and crowning party of the first semester. Everything was beauti- fully decorated, and fine music helped to make the evening a lively one. Anticipation of coming vacation might have been the cause of some merriment- Page 56 The Ilassayamper School Calendar September— 7. School starts with a bang! Guess the Frosh think so! 15.

My Trusty Guide You’re broken and you’re battered, An’ your covers’ torn and tattered, But the scars you’ve got have all been nobly won. Your pages are all torn, Little book, you’re sadly worn, And at times you’ve seemed to weigh a million ton- Yet thru’ many a hard “exam” You’ve stood by me like a man, Never flinching till the time you’d seen me thru’ it. Always faithful at my side Lay this trusty green-backed guide, Seeming to stand by and say, “I know you’ll do it.” Though at times I think I hate you, And often do berate you, I know that you have done your level best, And in the years that are to come I’ll not forget this faithful one, That stood firmly by and helped me pass the test, My dusty, dear, old Caesar, My trusty, dear old Caesar, My dusty, rusty, trusty, Green-backed Caesar. —Gail Allee.

There’s a spot in Arizona, Mid pine clad mountains high, A spot I’ll ever cherish, Whose charm will never die. There the hand of God has lingered, There His power and love are mingled. As he paints the crimson sunset On the glorious western sky. Chorus: Where the silver spruce trees flourish. Where the quaking aspen grows, Where the manzanita blossoms, With its faintest tints of rose; There my thoughts are ever turning. With love my heart is burning, It’s for Prescott I am yearning, Where the Hassayampa flows. II. There the stately pine trees tower. There the fir and locust grow. There the ferns and roses mingle With the columbine below. Tis a land of golden treasure; Its joys no power can measure, And ’tis there the crystal waters Of the Hassayampa flow. —Verna M. Foster, ’27. Page 68 The Hassayamper Dollar-Bound Destiny Prize Story. HERE was a feeling of longing in the sultry a'r—a long'ng for the old swimmin’ hole- Even efficient old Gus, the mail carrier, was dreaming cooling dreams of Granite Dells as he dropped a letter addressed to Adolf Snatchersnow into John Smith’s mail box. The sun was shining, the birds singing, the flowers blooming, the inhabitants perspiring, eating and sleeping at intervals. Yes, indeed—everything helped in making a perfect summer’s day in Arizona. But summer wasn’t summer to Bert Haynes as he lay on a cot in a top-story room of a cheap lodging house. He lay there reflecting, pondering, philosophizing—unheed- ing all but his own fancy. Three weeks ago Bert had been counting t es, with his Sunday socks slung over his shoulder in a “speaks-for-itself” bundle. Dame Fortune relaxed her watch for a moment, whereupon Bert unexpectedly came into possession of sixty-three dollars. Now sixty-three material dollars was enough to entirely change Bert’s view of existence. He immediately decided to settle down and lead a mori useful life. Maybe he ould buy out a hot-dog stand and become a gentleman. Therefore upon arriving in town he rented the room he was now in, then he satisfied his appetite of forty years standing. With infinite trust and faith Bert pi ed the remainder of his cash ir. a back pocket which, unfortunately, lacked a bottom. That was why Bert was thinki •. He no longer desired the life of a wanderer. Any acquirement of power, no matter now large or small, carries with it a proportionate amount of pride. Bert was no longer a tramp, he was a business man, but what cculd a business ms do without Capital? When evening came, Bert ceased his labor, to take a walk ifter traversing thn main street a dozen times, he turned down a side street. As he rounded a corner, a man, running silently but forcefully, crashed head-long into him. When the pair of bodies ceased rolling, Bert staggered to his feet in a dazed condition, cursing theso new- fangled automobiles that don’t rattle before striking. The other man lay still. In a few moments a panting figure, wearing a large badge, came running up. Seeing the unmoving form on the sidewlak he knelt down, applied a air of handcuffs to him, felt his heart and then arose smiling. “Old Kingman Pete is a pretty hefty scrapper,” he said, “but you must have a good fist yourself. Pete’s just coming to.” “Yes,” said Bert, “he was a pretty hard-hittin’ feller, but he couldn’t dodge m?.” “We caught him trying to get in the bank before opening hours,” said the police- man, “and I’ve been chasing him for six blocks. You’re the first man that had sensa enough to stop him. By the way, there is fifty dollars reward for his capture; he’s robbed three stores in the last week.” Bert’s heart and stomach thrilled at the mention of money. Sure, he would go over to the court house right now if it were all right with the cop. Bert was happy again. Instinct led him to a restaurant. He did not stop to ques- tion the quality of the establishment but for two hours he kept busy the entire force of waiters—an old lame Dutchman. Feeling rejuvenated, Bert began a promenade of the premises with his money clutched tightly in his hand- His attention was drawn to a small table in a corner where three men were intensly interested in watching the actions of two little white cubes. Now Bert was no novice when it came to throwing the little dimpled heart-breakers—but then, on the other hand, he did not very often have the experience of holding on to forty-six dollars and fifty cents. But, Oh! How much better it would be if his principal were doubled or, maybe, tripled. Bert played; Destiny played . The next day, on a glimmering expanse of track, could be seen a man traveling with a steady gait, never hastening, never ceasing, never changing. He walked mech- anically along, gazing unheedingly at wood, iron and earth—pondering—thinking— wondering. —Fred Cromwell. Page 6!) The Hassayamper A Double Conquest (Honorable Mention.) RED CONNOR was seated by the small fireplace of his trapper’s cabin reading. He was di'eading to wash the supper dishes, for he knew from experience, as most men do, that it was a tiresome job. He finally decided to leave them until morning- He was accustomed to a look at the stars before turning in, to tell what kind of weather was in store for him. It was a wonderf”l night. The ful' moon had just risen and only the outdoors man knows what a sight it makes shining through the trees on the new fallen snow. As he started to close the door he heard the short bark of a fox out to hunt. He listened closely and soon heard it again, much closer. After about ten minutes of patient waiting he saw a movement in the brush to his right, and looking saw a fox trot out into the small clearing not fifty yards distant. It was jet black all over except the tip of the tail, which was white. The thought of the scene in the trader’s store, where had been offered one thousand dollars for just such a skin, came back to him. “If I only had a gun now,” he thought. “Still a thirty bullet would tear it up quite a little.” He then and there made up his mind to be its owner as soon as possible. Next morning Fred was up bright and early studying the tracks left by his visitor. He noticed that the left front foot had only two toes- After breakfast he started out over his line of traps. He had at first thought of following the fox trail to find out where his visitor lived, but considering the animals in his traps, he decided not to do so. His first trap contained nothing, but the second held the front leg of a gray squirrel. The snow around the trap was covered with blood. At first glance he thought it was the work of the trapper’s enemy, the wolverine, but closer examination showed that it was only the accomplishment of his new friend securing a breakfast. There was that two toed track everywhere he looked. The trail of fox tracks followed his trap line for about a mile then left it and turned westward along a rocky ridge. Fred hurried over his line so that he would have time to go to the trader’s for cornmeal before dark. His catch was small, but he was happy at having seen so beau- tiful an animal and knowing that he might be the owner of one thousand dollars before spring. He was returning from the trader’s late the next afternoon when he heard a distant growling. Following this up he found that it came from his friend and a lynx cat, who had agreed to disagree over the matter of a partridge, which both wanted for supper. Fred had only his twenty-two revolver with him, owing to the weight of his cornmeal. What a chance this was to secure that precious hid! He was all ready to shoot when he saw that the lynx cat was about to conquer the fox. His sympathy went out to the fox, and he changed his aim to the lynx. At the crack of the revolver the cat fell dead and the fox disappeared. As Fred thought of what had gotten away he was very much dis- gusted with himself- He swore that he would never again let such a chance go by. The next morning, while going his rounds, he was not surprised to see that two- toed track following along his old tracks. As he followed the trail he noticed the care- lessness of what he supposed to be the cunningest animal of the woods. It would trot within a very short distance of a trap, often stepping on the jaws but never on the pan. If there happened to be any small animals in a trap they were totally destroyed. At each trap Fred swore vengeance on the little marauder, but no matter what kind of set he made, he could not catch his friendly enemy. Things went on in this manner for about two weeks. Later he found the “silver king” held fast in a mink trap. As Fred leveled his revolver he thought of what hand- some price such an animal would bring alive so he went back to the cabin for some stout cord and a sac’.;. But on returning he turned the fox loose, for, as he said, there is a way of the helpless animals that goes to the heart of all nature lovers. —Stuart Leavell. Page 70 The Hassayamper The Lighthouse (Honorable Mention) Tall, majestic, white and gleaming— Near a century old, Stands the lighthouse in the harbor; Guiding ships into the fold. Boom and bursting go the billows; Trying o’er and o’er To wash away the sturdy lighthouse From the sandy shore. But there magic, white, and gleaming, Grim as grim can be Stands the lighthouse, flinching never From the briny sea. There’s the keeper of that lighthouse; His locks have turned to snow, He’s attended to that lighthouse Fifty years as winters go. Oh, praise be to that lighthouse; And to its keeper old; As they stand there in the harbor, Guiding ships into the fold. —Adda Jane Giroux. Drummer Haselfeld Enters the Town Before a Basketball Game Haselfeld led boldly with his big bass drum, (Are you keeping up the spirit of the school?) The towns-people smiled, and they said: “They come,” (Are you keeping up the spirit of the school?) Skipping freshies followed rank on rank, Jumping sophies, on the outer flank, Juniors running third in the trail, Seniors walking dignified and pale, (Are you keeping up the spirit of the school?) When Haselfeld halted at the curb, to give a cheer, He saw the crowds drawing near, And through the din and noise he beat his drum, Bidding Freshies, Sophies, Juniors and Seniors, come. Then they all gathered round, And sang to the drums loud sound, (Are you keeping up the spirit of the school?) —With apologies to Vachel Lindsay. Fage 71 The Hassayamper Taking Junior Pictures Joe Allen “What is that, another Junior?” were the words that escaped from Mr. Bate’s lips as the door opened and the thirty-ninth one walked in. Before the camera was fixed up ready to “shoot,” six or seven young persons were conversing gaily waiting to have their pictures taken. Mr. Bate went up stairs and after some delay he shouted, “Already, come on up— firrilt hero, first served.” But no one seemed very anxious to go first. After a few minutes’ pause, Taylor Hicks and Dixon Fagerberg stepped forward. “Step right this way, Taylor, you are first,” came a voice from behind the large camera. With this request Taylor quickly complied and in a moment he was seated on a long bench. Poking his head out from behind the camera the photographer began, “just a minute. Smile, never mind those boys over there, look at me. Now tip your head just a little. Not so much. Hold it. That’s just fine ” Swish went the camera. “That’s all. Come Dixon, you’re next.’ “Why Dixon,’ said Mr. Bate looking him over, “I thought you were sick.” “I was,” came Dixon’s quick reply, “but I could not think of letting this chance of getting my picture in the Annual pass unheeded.” Dixon passed quickly to the bench where Taylor had sat. But Mr. Bate had to move the bench so that the light would strike his face just right. After Dixon was settled Mr. Bate started his usual enterta..iment; “Don’t be so serious, smile a little. Raise your eyes. There, hold it. Tilt your head -a little to the left. Back a little. Hold it right there. That’s just fine. Just a minute now. Steady boy.” Swish click. That’s all, who’s next?” In this manner Mr. Bate entertained the Juniors until after working hours that night. By the w'ay that camera shrieked and groaned that afternoon, we think he will put in claims for a new one. Modern Senior Metaphores 1- A test a day keeps graduation away. 2. A lesson on time saves wondering whether you are going to pass or not. 3. Late to bed, late to rise makes a Senior close his eyes. 4. Squander time for that is the stuff vacation is made of. 5. Trouble others if you find things are too deep for you. 6. Be not the first to try the new balloon pants nor the last to lay them aside when they fade. 7. A great book will be hard to lift, as well as to read. 8. He who has lost his “Pep” can lose nothing else. 9. Leave everything till tomorrow—w'hat you think you can’t do today. 10.

The Hassayamper Arizona Sketches The Desert Day CROSS the dry and grassy plain spread a ray of light through the early morning dawn. The giant cacti stretched their strong arms towards heaven as the protectors of the sands. Here and there a road-runner or a speeding jack rabbit would rush across our path. As the sun rose higher and hotter, the purples, greens and browns became more brilliant and beautiful. Now and then a buzz was heard and a rattlesnake would glide off among the grasses and twigs. While we paused to refresh ourselves with our slight repast a hungry gila monster crawled slowly by in his hunt for food. A lone cow or horse was often seen standing dejectedly in the shade of a cactus or small tree trying to keep out of the heat of the afternoon. On we traveled, some- times wandering around rough roads, sometimes dodging between cactus and sage brush, throughout deep ravines and by a small water hole surrounded by thirsty cattle. Soon the colors began to deepen and the fading light in the sky had a golden red hue. The cacti became phantoms and all sounds full of mystery. Again it was night on the great western desert. —Bob Yount. An Arizona Evening ROM the old log cabin perched high on the side of the mountain, we look across range after range of blue ad purple hills fading finally into the dis- tant blur of the desert. At the bottom of the bluff the river tumbles and gurgles along. Somewhere an owl calls plaintively, and the sigh of a soft breeze makes us lonesome and thoughtful. We hear the soft stir of the night life among the pine needles. As the moon rises, making phantom shapes and shadows; the mountain world is bathed in unearthly radiance. Somewhere a rock is dislodged by a prowling animal, and the echo reverberates and dies a.vay as it falls— down—down—down. With hearts half sad, half happy, we hear the coyote call his farewell to the dying day. Night has settled over all. —Mona Denson Page 73 The Hassayamper Greer HERE is, way up in the White Mountains of Arizona, a little village called Greer. The elevation is nearly nine thousand feet so that even in July when all the rest of the world is baked in the hot sun, Greer is just pleas- antly warm. The only public buildings are the postoffice and the schoolhouse. The homes of the people are scattered up and down the valley. Most of the houses are built of logs and belong to summer residents. Only the old timers, who have lived there all their lives, as their fathers did before them, are able to stand the severity of the winters. When I first saw Greer a light rain was falling, blurring all the landscape. To the south Old Baldy rose a grim sentinel, his outline seen but dimly in the mist. Many a story of olden days could he tell if he were allowed to speak. The smoke curled lazily from the chimneys around the roof tops, making queer designs. The pine trees, seen through the covering veil of rain, seemed strange shapes. Now and then the drizzle turned and came down with sudden force beating out a march on the roof tops. Occasional flashes of lightning were seen, followed by the mighty roar of the thunder vibrating in the valley. The driving rain soon abated and the gentle pitter-patter was heard again. The surface of the Little Colorado River, fresh from its mountain spring, was ruffled by the splash of the raindrops. The vividly colored wild flowers bent down as if trying to see their reflection now that the dust was washed off. The rain lasted all day and I went to bed listening to the peaceful tap, tap of the raindrops. —Charlotte Raible. The Aravaipa Canyon HE head of the Arivaipa Canyon is situated right at the foot of a large mesa which seems to come to a jumping-off place right where the canyon begins. For several miles it is nothing but a large sand wash with small gullies coming in on the west, which carry the flood waters off from the mesa and low rolling hills on that side. There appears to be practically nothing except mesquite and barking prairie dogs running from one mound to another, but as the canyon grows wider in its course a few cottonwoods break into view, with here and there an oak or two. About this time one forgets the desolate country he has just passed over, for a sweet fresh fragrance seems to suddenly fill the air. But the mystery is soon solved for a large bend in the canyon brings into view a stream of clear, running water with small patches of alfalfa on either side. As' the course of the canyon continues these become more and more scarce, but the scenery grows more magnificent as small cliffs begin to appear on either side of the stream. The farther one goes, the taller these become and there are large clusters of fragrant columbines, wild roses and wild honeysuckle, to say nothing of all the varieties of morning glories growing from the water up the sides of the rock walls. Also there are prehistoric dwellings in the cliffs. When one is going down the canyon, the murmur of the crystal stream as it zigzags onward and echoes on the walls, together with the fragrance of the wild flowers, makes one feel as if nature had attained the impossible. —Naydsne Tenney. Page 74 The Hassayamper The Sunrise The night had slowly faded And day was beginning to dawn when Far in the gray eastern sky A faint light began to show. Each moment it grew brighter Causing the gray to change To yellow and gold, While in the other parts Of the sky blues and pinks appeared. At last the yellow, gold and pink Changed to bright orange hues As the sun peeped over the mountain Awake and bright, calling All to be up and at work. —Dorothy Hennig. A Morning Prayer Beloved Father, I am but a piece of clay; Only Thou canst show the darkened, lowly way O’er which the Master and His Martyrs bravely tread. Soon I follow in their steps, by Thee am led. Let hands and feet be messengers of deeds of love, Working for their Master, guided by One above; That seek, and find their course, foretold by Destiny, Giving joy and kindness, with talents lent to me. And all Thy sheep must wander on the hill-top bare, Scattered and forlorn if Thou relax Thy care. I pray that not an evil enter in, but all grace Such as makes me wish to meet Thee, face to face. —Bernice Fletcher. Page 75 The Hassayamper Tros K L f|!C Ke T S Page 76 The Hassayamper HOOT M(M!
