' f CZ , ; wrv : Published By The Students of Prescott High School Prescott, Arizona [ jolewold This year the Hassayamper staff has endeavored to produce the best annual in the annals of Prescott high school. We have a great deal of material to work with, for the school has enjoyed in 1940-41 one of the most active years in its history. Although we have striven to produce as complete a record as possible of the year's activities, we realize that there was not space for all the worthwhile things. For this we are genuinely sorry. From a small one-room log school house Prescott high has progressed by rapid strides to the new four-building plant, which, by a strange quirk of fate, was constructed almost next door to the original log cabin. Therefore, we have chosen Progress as the theme of our book and have used as our symbol of progress the mighty modern streamliner. Like the searchlight which guides the streamliner, the ability and ideals developed in our grad- uates shall guide them to the end of their journey. Service, dependability, usefulness, in all these may our students make a record comparable to that of our streamliner. If, in years to come, you again observe the history of the year gone by, and remember with a smile in your heart the fun you had and the friends you loved, then this book has achieved its purpose. Dedication To the new school, its present and its future, we dedicate this annual. Formerly we have shared our building with others. Now we have it entirely to ourselves. Others may not infringe on our self-made standards and laws. But, at the same time, some of the old school still remains with us. There are records made and broken, laws made and kept. We still have those laws and records, for they moved with us into our new school, and here they will remain until the records are broken again or the laws remade. We hope that our school will grow old with the feeling of being new. We hope that it will have a clean page, on which will be no ink-spots left by careless writers. It is our wish that other people may point to our school and say, Look, Prescott is proud of its school. Each year leaves a better record than the one before.” Yes, to our new home, for that is really what it is, we dedicate this, the first annual to be planned and finished within its doors. Qclminishaticn The administrative body of Prescott high school is composed of four distinct groups, the Board of Education, the offices of superintendent and principal, the faculty, and the student council. Certain powers are vested in each of these groups, but the last three are directly or indirectly under the control of the first, the Board of Education. Selected by the taxpayers of the community, the board, Dr. J. H. Allen, Kenyon Trengove, and F. R. Steed, have control of the general system. The superintendent and principal who are appoint- ees of this group are closely associated with it, however. Elected by the popular vote of the students, the student council is a type of self-govern- ment. Dividing itself into small groups of three or four members in order to study more closely the many problems confronting it, the council investigates, discusses, and votes on matters relating to the affairs of the student body. Since the faculty is largely relieved by the student council from the task of attending to student problems, it is able to play a much more important part in the extra-curricular acti- vities of the school. Aside from their class room duties and their sponsoring of the various organizations, the members are always ready to help and advise the pupils. We, the student body, appreciative of the fine work done by the administrative bodies this year, wish to express our sincere thanks. Don R. Sheldon SUPERINTENDENT Iboa d el Education A. W.

J. McNarie ADVISER Stanley Day PRESIDENT Fay Gibbs TREASURER emcrt tfnfaockictioH Activity was the keynote for the opening of the seniors' last year of high school beginning with the traditional trek to the letter, the move into the new plant, and the thrill of giv- ing the first play on the stage of the new auditorium. The first dance following the senior hop was the senior leap-year dance which was timely to the last detail, all honors being done by the girls. According to custom, no senior's final year is complete without a Ditch Day, and the class of 1940 made no exception to the rule, making the most of their opportunity. As the last days draw near, the seniors experience a feeling of regret in leaving their high school days and memories behind them, but look forward to new adventures, chal- lenges, and triumphs in the future for which the past four years have prepared them.

We leave the argument over caps and gowns to be settled by “Pop” McNarie, our class ad- visor who has always helped us over the “hard spots.” I, Max Edwards, will my ability to do, act, say, and be what the student body wants a president to do, act, say, and be to the next student body president. 1, Jeanne Evans, leave my love for athletics to George McKay.

TRACK GIRLS' ATHLETICS TENNIS Spats Sports are an essential part of the life of any school, for minds which study all day must have some relaxation, and bodies that relax all day must have some exercise. Such sports as football, basketball, track, and tennis were open to the boys at various times throughout the year, with competition between individuals, between homerooms, between classes, and with other schools. Gym classes and the Girls' Athletic association provided sports for many girls. TT— Toowall Arthur Converse CAPTAIN This year Prescott high school enjoyed one of the best football seasons in recent years. The boys, who spent their even- ings practicing, brought honor to our school for the sportsman-like way in which they conducted themselves and the man- ner in which they fought. In the opening game of the season Prescott journeyed to Peoria where for the second consecutive year a well-earned victory was gained. In the next contest, however, Prescott got its first taste of defeat by losing to Glendale. The third game was fought on the home field, and after a bitterly contested game Prescott lost to Jerome, arch rivals from across the hill. The team soon avenged itself by winning from Flagstaff, Winslow, and Clarkdale re- spectively. P.H.S. then journeyed to Phoenix where a game but losing battle was fought with the heavier St. Marys team. In the final game of the season Prescott again met with defeat, this time by the Tempe team. For the entire season, which consisted of eight games, Prescott won four and lost four games, which gave P.H.S. a .500 average for the season.

No record could be complete without a special mention of those faithful members of the squad who, though they could not earn a place on the starting line-ups nor play enough quarters for a letter, nevertheless turned out night after night for practice. It is partially through their efforts that the lettermen were able to de- velop as they did and that the season was as successful as it was. Bill Stewart, Henry Garcia, Bill Nicks, Martin Alexander, Donnie Pearsall At the close of the regular season the seniors made up a team and played the under- classmen in the annual football classic of Prescott high. This game was hard fought be- cause both sides wanted the honor of having the game recorded on the side of the seniors or the under-classmen, whichever the case might be. Prescott had the good fortune of having a number of returning lettermen this year, and it was around these boys that the team was built. However, even these boys had to work hard for there were a number of good men for each position. 9 Bob Welch, Max Edwards, Jack Wyly, Wayne Loving, Ted Cathey.

S. placed third in the Northern Arizona conference standings this year after an unusual and inconsistent basket- ball season. Prescott had a schedule of thirteen games out of which seven were won. Al- though failing to receive an invitation to the State tournament, Prescott attended the Northern tournament at Flagstaff, where they won two out of three games. In the first round Prescott defeated Williams by a score of 35 to 25. At the end of the second round it was found that Prescott had emerged with a 39 to 25 victory over Flagstaff. This was the the second time that P.H.S. had defeated the Eagles. In the third round, however, the Badgers were defeated by Winslow 45 to 23. Earlier in the season, Prescott had defeated them by a score of 39 to 21. This year there were four returning lettermen: Edwards, Converse, Loving, and Wyly. It was around these boys that the team was built. Not only did Prescott have a good varsity, but also a second team composed of sopho- mores. This team played a fast, good, clean game of basketball. It competed against several out of town teams, mainly second teams of schools competed agaist by the high school. It is around these boys that the 1940-41 team probably will be formed, for the great- er part of the starting team graduated in June.

Although all these boys did not have enough quarters for a letter, they will receive Badger heads. Those who received letters this year are as follows: Max Edwards, forward; Art Converse, forward; Jack Wyly, guard; Wayne Loving, guard; and Bill Balentine, center. These boys were the starting line-up in most of the games this season, and all of them played a good, clean, game. All of them graduated this June and their positions will have to be filled by new men next year. Not only will the school miss them, but also the towns- people who followed the fortunes of the team. Cecil Smith, Wayne Loving, Arthur Converse Although the track squad this year was composed of a number of new mem- bers, Wayne Loving, Bill Travis, Bill Nicks, Arthur Converse, and Joe Miller returned to form the nucleus of the 1940 squad. This year, as usual, the tracksters participated in the high jump, hurdles, dashes, mile and half-mile runs, broad jump, pole vault, javelin half-mile relay. Arthur Converse, Bill Travis, Wayne Loving and football throw, shot put, discus, and the The track squad participated in four meets this year. The first meet, which was with Kingman, was in Prescott. The second meet was in Winslow where P.H.S. met teams from all over the northern part of the state and a team from Gallup, New Mexico. In the third meet of the season those boys who showed up well in the preceding meets went to the State meet at Tucson. In the fourth and last meet of the season, Prescott journeyed to Flagstaff where P.H.S. met the same teams that were at Winslow with the exception of Gallup. This was the northern Arizona track championship meet. Thus the finest track, season in recent years was brought to a close.

The Girls' Athletic association strives to develop an intramural program which will be broad enough to meet the inter- ests of all Prescott high school girls, to promote activities which may be adapted to the leisure time of after school life, to develop standards of leadership and sportsmanship for high school girls, to encourage the mem- bers to practice desirable health habits and so develop physical fitness, and to provide op- portunities for boys and girls to enjoy sports and games together. All girls of the senior high are eligible fcr membership when they have participated in five G.A.A. sports. There are at the present time 126 members. The five officers are Jeanne Evans, president; Lorraine Wilson, vice-president; George McKay, secretary-treasurer; Felice Mignella, social chairman; Barbara Post, publicity chair- man. Dean’s team: Valene Sanders, Patsy Evans, Jean Hatch, Dawn Bennett, Pearl Tenney, Yvonne Bowen, Nora Atkins, and Mary Coleman.

Referee and umpire: Mildred Dowell and Miss Cary Cj.G Front Table: Catherine Martin and Jeanne Evans Each girl who has shown enough in- terest to complete a required number of practices, or required number of games in a tournament, receives her points. Thus the award system is based on interest rather than ability. The G. A. A. sponsors at least eight sports each year. Each girl has the privil- ege of choosing the sports in which she is most interested. Participation in five sports entitles a girl to the G.A.A. blue and gold emblem; ten sports, to the gold numerals; fifteen sports, to the six-inch letter. Three or four years are required to earn the six-inch letter. Girls who have been awarded letters are Marilyn Miller, Martha Smith, Jeanne Evans, Ina Ruth Crose, Della Monreal, Catherine Martin, Millicent McDonald, Marjorie Pitchford and Eudora Tenney. Such sports as volleyball, basketball, table tennis, handball, tennis, hiking, badminton, softball, and tumbling have been sponsored this year. Social activities are arranged throughout the year in the form of playnights, parties, and hikes. The G.A.A. usually attends the annual Play Day held in Flagstaff. Jlettelmens Glub The only requirement of a member of the Lettermen's club is to have earned a letter in one of three major sports. Among the club's activities is the recommendation of boys to whom letters should be given. Other activities this year were a very successful dance and the annual picnic.

Any student who had an interest in learning or improving his tennis game was asked to join the club. This year there was a larger group out for practice than ever before. The club the tennis courts. The boys' team, which was subject to change during the year, was, according to rank, as follows: David Campbell, Kenneth Eckert Bob Madrid, Bill Lynch, Joe Love, Robert Kiv- ley, and Stanley Day. The girls' team, also subject to change throughout the year, was, according to rank, as follows: Ruth Born, Rachel Bethea, Marjorie Pitchford, Carolyn Walker, Pat Hall, Mary Ethel Theobald, and Pearl Tenney. Interscholastic competition with other high schools added much interest to the club. The schedule for these games was as follows: March 23, Phoenix Union High School, played there; April 20, Mesa, played here; April 27, Winslow invitational, for boys only, played at Winslow; May 4, Kingman, played there; May 11, Phoenix Union High School, played here; May 18, Scottsdale, played here. A number of members of both the boys' and girls' team were awarded letters. Several of these people will return to school next year to assure another successful tennis team.

H. Dean Lillian Savage MUSIC DRAMATICS CHAIRMAN PUBLICATIONS DRAMATICS First we work and then we play. The wide range of school activities is organized from a standpoint of teaching the students to get along with each other, as well as providing technical training in business and professional subjects. Classes include a wide variety of activities, ranging from the election of class officers and student body leaders to the completion of group and individual projects. The extra-curricular activities sponsored by the various teachers are so varied as to provide interest to every student in high school. Not only do the activities provide enter- tainment and recreation, but they also develop skill along certain lines. Things of interest included in this section are dramatics, music, classroom activities, publication of the Hassa- yamper and Badger, the annual carnival, as well as a number of other activities. The staff regrets that space and expense would not permit picturing of all activities and events. Thus by combining work and play, the work becomes easier to understand, and the play becomes more constructive. Ina Ruth Crose EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Owen Campbell SPORTS EDITOR The Badger staff, made up of the third period journalism class, wrote and published the school paper twice a month. Editor-in-chief Ina Ruth Crose was responsible for all assignments and page make-up. Owen Campbell, the sports editor, was in charge of sports assignments and sports page make-up, and the arranging and care of all feature material was handled by Julian Briggs, the feature editor. Circulation manager Dawn Bennett was responsible for circulation and distribution of the Badger and all distribution assignments, while Anna Margaret Connell and Catherine Martin were assigned to copy reading. The typists were June Willard, Verona Despain, and Pinkie Jackson. Much credit goes to Mr. Dean, advisor and journalism instructor, who contributed much to make the publication a success. Each person in the class was assigned to a beat and was responsible for all the news from that source.

(Jnnua 194 Ina Ruth Crose EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Barbara Post ASSISTANT EDITOR One of the outstanding working organizations of the school this year has been the Hassayamper staff. Under the guidance of Mr. Dean, this group has attempted to publish a year book that will hold a personal interest for each and every member of the senior high school student body. The representative of the whole student body, the person to whom most of the work falls, was the editor. Acting under her was an assistant editor who aided in general make-up of the volume. Each class was represented individually by an editor who took care of all the activities in his class. For the art work there was a special staff consist- ing of an editor and three assistants. This staff designed all drawings. The advertising was taken care of by the entire staff, under guidance of an advertising manager, and circulation was handled in a similar manner. The general editorial work, picture place- ment, make-up, and copy writing, was also done by each member of the staff. In preparing the Hassayamper for 1940, the staff attempted to include as many activities, described in both writing and picture, as the space and budget would allow. Many of the activities could not be pictured because of the late date on which they occurred. In other cases budget requirements made it necessary to omit some which should have been included to make the publication complete.

Many a bug, snake, and fish has had his privacy interfered with so that the biology classes might see what makes him tick. On several occasions the classes took field trips and came back proudly bearing trophies. Each student was required to undertake a project, the subject to be any phase of nature, such as an animal, a piece of wood, or a leaf colie ction. Miss Summers, the cooking teacher, made the study of the cullinery arts interesting as well as educational. Her class of prospective bachelors learned so much that they almost began to wonder what women are for. In the five complete kitchens which compose the cooking room the girls prepared well balanced meals, and studied human relations and child development. Every girl completed, as part of the course, a home project which could consist of any part of the family meal preparation, such as buying the groceries for a week, planning the meals for a week, or cooking the meals for a week. As part of the class work the girls cooked twice a week. The days on which they did not cook, they planned these meals and bought their own groceries according to previously laid out plans. Probably the most popular classes were those in gymnasium, directed by Miss Cary and Coach Pratt, where teaching good health habits, building stronger bodies, and fun are all combined. The sports were played co-educationally with a maximum of fun and re- laxation. Volley ball, basketball, badminton, table tennis, handball, deck tennis, tumbl- ing, and bar work were the sports enjoyed at various times throughout the year. Each class selected a girl and a boy who were champions in table tennis. In the fall soft ball and tennis were played at the ball park. For girls who wished to do more gym work than class time provided, Miss Cary conducted the G. A. A. activities, which were various sports held after school. One of the weekly assemblies was held in the gym. For this assembly Mr. Pratt's expert tumblers gave an exhibition of their skill. (Assemblies c) SnalisL The teachers in the English depart- ment, Miss Savage, Miss Brinkmeyer, Miss Childress, Mr. Dean, and Mr. Munz, have done a great deal of constructive work this year. Part of the English courses consisted of such practical work as grammar and oral and written composition. For the purpose of enlarging the pupils' field of acquaint- ance with better literature, the classes read lrom the works of well-known authors of poetry, drama, short stories, essays and novels. The speech students received a thorough training in theory as well as practice. Miss Savage gave her pupils a valuable training in delivery, manner, and practical English, enabling the students to speak to an audience with confidence and to converse with others with ease. In the annual academic meet at Flagstaff, Prescott's English and speech contest- ants proved the practicability of the English courses. This year the student body has seen some of the best entertainment in the way of as- semblies that has even been produced by Prescott high. Four assemblies were devoted to the original skit contest conducted by Miss Savage for the purpose of giving the average student the opportunity to take part in a high school production. Mr. Backe conducted three music assemblies in which the band, orchestra, choruses, and various soloists took part. Each homeroom elected a representative to the brain trust which was the Professor Quiz assembly. Appropriate and beautiful assemblies were conducted on Thanksgiving day, Armistice day, and Christmas Because of the fine acoustics, lighting system, and seating facilities of the new auditor- ium, it was the scene of many other activities enjoyed by the whole community as well as the student body including both the senior and junior plays, the dedication ceremony in the fall, and the Vesper services at Christmas time. The auditorium is truly one of the spots the seniors will remember in their wanderings along the road of life. Student OJjfj icels, S-iblaly anc 'T jf incj Prescott high school has an excellent system of student government. As much control as possible is placed in the hands of the students, enough to encourage progress, but not enough to bring about anarchy. The student body president, vice-pres- ident, secretary, yell leader, and athletic manager are elected in a general election in which every member of the student body has the privilege of voting. Each home room elects a representative to the student council and an alternate. This body holds regular bi-monthly meetings in which all matters regarding the school are discussed and decided. Each home rooms elects its own officers: president, vice-president, secretary, girls' athletic manager and boys' athletic manager. In this way Prescott has an efficient and democratic student government. The library, under the supervision of Miss Hardaway, librarian, and Mr. Long, study hall teacher, will be long remembered as a quiet room for study and reference work. This year all the study halls are held in the library, making the many reference books available at all times to students who wish to use them. In the eastern end of the library are three small, soundproof rooms for the use of stu- dents who wish to study aloud together. All the old copies of the school's magazines are kept on file in the mending room for reference work done by the various classes. Mr. Olivo's and Miss Baken's typing classes made rapid progress along stenographic lines. The first year classes received training and practice in the fundamentals of the touch system, business and friendly correspondence, use of carbon paper, punctuation, and spelling. The second year classes received more practice and did work on legal forms and com- position. The second year course was designed mainly for those wishing to make sten- ography their vocation. As many pupils as possible were taught to use the mimeograph as a preparation for office work. Leah Bunker, first soprano; Martha Smith, second soprano; and Catherine Martin, alto, made up the girls' trio this Martha Smith, Catherine Martin, Leah Bunker year. Each of these girls has been out- standing in chorus work in all her years m Prescott high school. Besides performing for many civic affairs, they entered the Northern Arizona music festival in Flagstaff in April. Because of the excellence of their performance they won a superior rating there. These girls have indeed been a credit to the high school and to the music department in which they have received their very fine training. With the very capable aid of Mr. Backe and the complete cooperation of all the students, the music department has produced one of the finest bands in many years. Composed of forty members, the band is a well-balanced organization with a varied instrument rep- resentation from the giant tubas to the small oboe and piccilos. The band has made many fine appearances, among them several assemblies and at all home games. During the Masonic convention the organization also led the parade. At the annual music festival in Flagstaff the band was given a superior rating, the only one given in band and the first ever received by Prescott.

Music by the Masters Music lovers of Prescott high school have found that the Chickering grand piano, a gift of Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Eddy, has furnished them with many hours of enjoyment and worthwhile musical educa- cation. This piano has an ampico attachment which can reproduce music from the 400 rolls of music accompanying the piano. About two hundred rolls of this music are classical, each one contributing to the education of the musically inclined person. As he listens he can almost feel as if the musician is there playing, with his own interpretation, the selection chosen. ITlusic Offleciaticn OicLesiia This year's orchestra was the only organization of its kind to receive the highest rating of superior at the Northern Arizona music festival. The Prescott group has carried off first honors at the northern contest for the past five years. Foremost among the orchestra's appearances in Prescott this year are the members' performances at the junior and senior plays and at the dedication of the new high school. In addition to this the orchestra has appeared in school assemblies and at the open house program for visitors to the new plant. Several members of the organization were also selected to journey to Phoenix earlier in the year and take part in the KTAR broadcast of the Arizona all-state orchestra.

The boys received a rating of excellent at the northern festival. They have provided entertainment in a number of school assemblies and have per- formed in public for the Masonic convention, the Rotary club, and the Monday club. Elbert Johnson, Henry Schroeder, Merrill Windsor, Evan Swann Choruses Prescott high school has the right to be proud of her choruses this year. The girls' glee club received a superior rating for its performance at Flagstaff in April. An excellent rating was given to the boys' glee club at the same Northern Arizona Music Festival. Among the mixed choruses in the state, Prescott's is an outstanding one. It gained a su- perior rating at Flagstaff, and has earned great acclaim from performances given at civic affairs in Prescott. The choruses went to Phoenix to give a broadcast over KTAR, stopping on the way to furnish a musical assembly for Wickenburg high school.

Kecotcim One of the greatest assets to the music department is its recording machine. Re- cordings made by the orchestra, band, choruses, ensembles, and soloists have proved invaluable as a means of improv- ing the quality of the work. The machine proved especially important in the per- fecting of the musical entries in the Northern Arizona music festival. The speech department also took advantage of this splendid aid prior to the Flagstaff speech contest. Anna Margaret Connell, Ina Ruth Crose, Mr. Backe ff When me ft A drama of college life, When Stars Shine, was chosen by the senior class as their annual play. Based upon the theme that the glorified star is not always the true hero or the best sport, the play follows the lives of two high school graduates, Gene Robbins and Jotty Barnes, in their first year of college. The play, directed by Miss Savage, was presented during the first semester in the senior high school auditorium. The audience, mindful of the fact that such a situation often oc- curs, thoroughly appreciated the fine acting and directing.

June Mad portrays the experience of Penny Wood during a visit a college friend of her uncle pays to the Woods. Penny tries to become a glamour girl overnight but finds that such a transformation is impossible for a girl of sixteen. At last she turns from the so- phisticated visitor to her old friend Chuck Harris, the boy next door.

These organizations are usually the result of an instructor's hobby, and the interest of a number of pupils of Prescott high school. There are three purposes that a pupil usually will consider when planning to join a club or organization. The first and the main reason is to have fun; the second is to learn, and the third is to benefit the school. Every student after a hard day's work likes fun, thrills, and relaxation. Such clubs as the Tennis club, the Ski club, and the Rifle club give the needed elements not found in the daily grind A student likes to learn when the knowledge is about something he is interested in. Thus such clubs as the Camera club, the Engineers club, the Spanish club, the Personality club, and the International Relations club fulfill other desires. Last, but not by any means the least, there are those who are only too glad to do some- thing to help put Prescott high school on the map. These people can be satisfied with the Tennis club out of which the tennis team grows, the Rifle club, out of which the rifle team is chosen, and the Ski club which turns out one of the finest ski teams in Arizona. The organizations, therefore, should and do satisfy each and every individual and his various tastes. Left: Ready, aim, fire. Top Right: A slat party. Bottom Right: Drill teams in action. QclWI IG, an c) PeA cnalitxj Qlui Throughout the year the Camera club has met once a week for the purpose of learning something about photography. The work has ranged from the studying of composition to the actual developing and printing of pictures. Members of the Personality club meet on Wednesdays to hear talks by prominent local business women and to study subjects related to the improvement of personality.

In order to accomplish this aim the club has obtained several in- teresting speakers throughout the year.
