TEAXS CONTENTS SPRING WINTER FALL The ’48 Hassavamper Staff hard at work. STAFF The Annual Staff for 1947-48 has had a busy season. Producing an annual is a much more difficult task than it would appear to the innocent bystander. Hours of blood, sweat, and tears were required to turn out the finished production. Oh! We suffered! The credit for this literary masterpiece should be divided equally between its two most ardent promoters and loyal supports. First. “Uncle Teddy” Cox. who has the unimpressive title of “adviser.” Few people, aside from those on the staff, realize how much time and effort “Uncle Teddy” devoted to producing this annual. Without his continual encouraging (and occasional verbal beatings) the staff members would never have accomplished their respective duties. The other person who deserves a great deal of credit is Helen Colwell, the editor of the Hassayamper. Helen was an excellent editor. She always found time to assist her struggling co-workers. Her duties included many unpleasant tasks which she always did willingly and without complaint. We, of the annual Staff, are deeply indebted to these two people for their untiring help and support. WE DEDICATE to FRANK STEED In loving memory of our friend and benefactor. Frank Steed, we dedicate the 1948 Hassayamper. For many years Mr. Steed served as a member of the Prescott school board. He had a deep and personal interest in the welfare of our public schools and their faculties and students. He never overlooked an opportunity to improve our educational system. He realized that there is perhaps nothing so essential to the development of a community as fine schools and educational advantages for its children. He was more than an executive of our Prescott school system, he was our friend. He made frequent appearances in assemblies and meetings where the school children had an opportunity to become acquainted with him. All those who were privileged to hear and meet Frank Steed loved and respected him. He was not content with mere visions of a new and better type of educational system, but he did everything within his power to make those dreams a reality. Although he is no longer with us in person. Frank Steed’s influence will continue to guide the policy of our school so that, as in the past, the Prescott public school system will progress according to the best ideals of public education in a democracy.

S. and it is with deep regret that we leave. As sophomores we felt very unimportant among our superiors. To start things off with a bang we made our annual sojourn to paint the “P’ The beating we received left us with little doubt as to whether we were or weren’t going to like the life of a high school student. After the “Kiddies Ball” which was given in our favor, we decided that maybe things weren’t so bad after all Early in the spring a “Sadie Hawkins’’ dance was sponsored by the Sophs, Lhe Daisy Mae and Li’l Abner costumes and coronation of the Sadie Hawkins king and queen will long be remembered. The sophomore asssembly. under the guidance of Miss Lillian Savage was a great entertainment which was made up of skits and musical numbers. Just before the school year ended, a Freshman-Sophomore dance was sponsored by the sophomore class to welcome next year’s sophomore class. Then came summer. By the time school started, we felt that after one year in high school we knew' quite a lot about what was going on. so we went into our Junior years in high spirits. For the first few months of school all the activities undertaken bv the Juniors had a Western theme. Late in the year a few Juniors got together and planned a picnic for the entire Junior class.

The play was a great success, and it proved that the class of ’48 was very much “on the ball.” A short time before the end of the school year the annual Junior-Senior banquet was given by the juniors in honor of the seniors. Beautiful flowers decorated the tables and the fireplace. The entertainment was superb. The greatest social event of the year was the Junior Prom which was also given in honor of the graduating class. The theme was a circus and the decorations used followed the theme through to every detail. Although there was a lot of work to the decorations and planning it turned out to be a great success. When we became seniors the first pleasure we enjoyed was that of taking the sophomores to paint the “P.” This was almost as rough on the seniors as it was on the sophomores. In November the Senior play. “The Adorable Spendthrift.” was presented. This great success was enjoyed by many townspeople as well as students. 'Fhe Senior Hop highlighted the social season just before Christmas vacation. This formal dance was sponsored by the class of 48. The hilarious farewell assembly composed and put on by the seniors was one of the most outstanding assemblies of the entire year. The Junior-Senior Banquet and Junior Prom were great moments in our lives as they were given in honor of us by the Juniors. Then came Baccalaureate and Commencement. This brought a lot of happiness and some sadness, for it meant that we had at last reached the goal we had strived for for many years. Gladys Williams Prescott. Arizona December 1.

Each day after school is out. these men sweep every building clean in- cluding the gym. In addition to these duties. Mr. Ladd and Mr. Gronlund drive the school buses with schedules running every morning and afternoon. Runs are also made to the Junior high for the boys who take shop. Mr. Shivers has spent much time on the lawn of PHS. working with it from sowing to growth. Each summer the buildings are cleaned completely with the floors waxed and desks refinished. Windows are washed, lockers cleaned, and necessary building repairs made awaiting the beginning of another school year. Student Council Shirley Lester Tommy Boyer Ann Fomara David Wist Sally Tuft Calvin Stuart Kenny Lyon Billy Jean Stroope Louis Fomara Roberta McLemon Eddie Simpson Jean Black Alfred McCoy Denford Pitts Paul Rice 1 he Student Council of Prescott High is a group of students selected to represent the high school. Its members consist of the student body officers and one representative from each homeroom. Sophomores and juniors, as well as seniors, are included in this council in order to make the student rule more democratic. The chief functions of the student council lie in discussing current school problems and endeavoring to increase student government in the school. The Student Council of 1947-48 has been one of the most active councils in the school’s history. Special committees have been appointed within the council to carry out activities and duties to the school. The council makes arrangements for any films which are to be shown to the student body and they have put on several educational assemblies. The student body secretary takes minutes at every council meeting and a copy is sent to each homeroom. This enables all of the students to know of the activities and decisions reached by their representatives. From the students’ standpoint the Student Council is probably the most important organization in school. Only through this council can the students secure any type of self government.

(Continued in buck of book Best Dancers Ann Fomara and Gene Allen were chosen as the “Best Dancers” of the senior class. When you see either Gene or Ann dance you will clearly understand that they well deserve this honor. Ann’s dancing ability is probably due to her sense of rhythm developed by her versatility on a number of musical instruments including the piano, saxo- phone. accordian. and others. Where Gene’s ability comes from we’re not quite sure. There is no doubt, however, that he does have what it takes to whirl the gals around the dance floor. When a team like Gene and Ann get together the results are bound to be good. The “Jitter- bugging.” and “Suzie Q ing” with all other fancy dancing is pushed into obscurity by their smooth, easy grace and natural “dance-floor poise.” Other points considered in choosing the best dancers were personality and good looks. A good dancer must be able to carry on friendly, polite conversation and be a nice person to be around. He must also be attractive to look at. he must watch his posture and the way he holds his partner. Both Gene and Ann fulfill these requirements in every way. Best Musicians In the current poll to select outstanding students from the senior class the honor of “Best Musician” went to Dorothy Matli and Corky Frost. Dorothy is an accomplished violinist and has made frequent appearances both in public and at school functions. She is a member of the chorus, band, and high school orchestra. Her poise and musical ability label her as a truly fine musician, a fact being brought out by her being chosen outstanding soloist in the Music Festival. Dorothy plans to continue with her music at college. Equally outstanding in the field of music is Corky Frost. He is versatile as well as accomplished in that he plays the piano, the saxophone, the bass viol, and has an excellent voice. He has participated in many school assemblies and festivities and appears frequently in public. Among other honors he was chosen to represent our high school in the music festival at Flagstaff. School Spirit In the recent poll to determine the outstanding students for 1947-48. Dorothy Rohrer and Phil Bybee were elected the girl and hoy w ith the “Best School Spirit.” Both Dorothy and Phil have participated in school activities all during their high school careers. Dorothy “Punkin” Rohrer was elected yell leader dur- ing her junior year. Dorothy’s enthusiasm for her position as veil leader won for her universal popularity among the students. She was also selected as queen of the Halloween Carnival by a popular vote of the high school students. Among other honors. “Punkin” is a member of the “15” club, the Quill and Scroll, and the National Honor Society. Phil Bybee is equally deserving of the title of “Best School Spirit.” Phil served as president of the sophomore class in 1946. He was re-elected as class president this year, but declined the honor in order to fill the position of school athletic manager. Phil is active in nearly every school club and oragnization. His friendly manner and magnetic personality have made him one of the most popular boys in high school. Wittiest Anne Hazeltine. selected by the student body as the wittiest girl in the senior class of 1948. gives good and fre- quent reasons for her election. Anne almost always has a cute, clever remark about any event and sends everyone into gales of laughter. She finds ample opportunities in her publications class and at annual staff meetings to brighten up this world with a little humor. Anne plays the bass drum in the school band, and had an important part in the senior play until she was forced to drop it because physics and chemistry were pressing too hard. John Nakis. better known as Johnny to everybody, also received an honor for being humorous. He seems to find his best opportunities for witty remarks during chorus class and rehearsals. Johnny is also a clever mimic and his antics keep his fellow students “rolling in the aisles.” Johnny expanded and developed his comic abilities while he was active in dramatics. Since the stage gave him a boost, who knows but that he may turn out to be a famous comedian. Most Likely I o Succeed The title “Most Likely to Succeed” perhaps one of the most desirable and hard to win titles which has been given. Both students who won this honor are. needless to say. outstanding. Janet Ramage, who was chosen for the girl, has been well up at the top of the list of scholastic ratings throughout her high school career. She was one of the two girls who wras able to earn her six inch letter in (LA.A. during her junior year. She excells in the fields of athletics and dramatics, having the leading role in the Senior Play. Janet’s ability, interest, and keen sense of humor have won her popularity among the high school students. She is a member of the Quill and Scroll and the National Honor Society, is editor of the high school paper, and won the D. A. R. Scholarship Award. Bill Hafford was the boy chosen for this honorable title. Bill's many talents have won him much popularity in high school. He is an apt speaker and represented our high school in the State Oratorical Contests for two years. Bill is also a talented artist and has entered his works in numerous art exhibits. Bill’s quick sense of humor, high intelligence, and natural abilities have made him one of the most outstanding boys in high school. Best Athletes The honorable title of “Best Athlete'’ has been awarded this year to Shirley Lester and Bob Taylor. Shirley, who was one of the two Junior girls to earn her six inch letter in her Junior year, has always partici- pated in all sports offered in our curriculum. She also played with one of the summer girls' softball league teams. In her junior year Shirley won in the Table Tennis Doubles Tourney, she placed in the badminton singles and badminton doubles tournies. She represented our school in the Arizona State Badminton Tournament in Tempo in badminton doubles, placing fourth in the state. This year she is school champion in both badminton singles and doubles. Shirley is this year’s president of the (� .A.A. Bob Taylor did a splendid job playing left guard on the 1947 football team. Although he was only here for one season, he has played and lettered in football for two years in other schools. He also played basketball with a city league team last season. Bob. who captained the Badgers, was outstanding for his rugged line play both on offense and defense. His alertness and endurance made him one of the outstanding guards of the North. MOST POPULAR The title of “Most Popular Girl goes to a most deserving senior. Pat Hill. Through- out her high school career Pat has taken an active part in all of the school activities. She is the secretary of the student body and held the position of Junior class secretary last year. She is a good student and has made consistently high grades, hut always finds time for her extra-curricular activities. She is a member of the “15 Club, the rifle team and is a 6-inch letter girl in Ci.A.A. Pat's friendliness, courtesy, and sportsmanship, and interest in school activities have made her outstanding among the high school girls. “Most Popular Boy” is the honor which was bestowed upon Dick Bishopp. Dick is the student body president for 1047 48. All during his high school days Dick has rated high on the popularity list. He was chosen Junior class president in 1047. Dick's interest and ability in athletics helped to win many friends for him. He participated in both track and football during his sophomore and junior years and was first string center on the football team this year. His many talents also include dramatics, as he had active roles in both the Junior and Senior class plays. Dick's friendly disposition, active interest in the school, and good sportsmanship have made him a favorite among all those who have known him WINTER “the cold winds doth blow DECEMBER 1947 PHE 49' ers Waldo Bast Advisor The fortv-niners have been more than successful in this year of nineteen hundred and forty eight. At the beginning of this year they gave a semi-formal dance that was decorated in the autumn theme. The dance drew a very large crowd and every one had a grand time. Next the Junior play, ‘ You Can’t Take It With You.” was given on March If). There was a large attendance at which the whole auditorium was nearly filled. After the evening performance of the play a party was given by the cast, stage crew, make-up. properties and sound effects people, for themselves and their guests. On May 7 the Junior Senior Banquet was given for the Seniors, (iood food was the accent of the evening. Then the “grand finale” of the whole year, the Junior-Senior Prom, was held in the gym in honor of the graduating Seniors. The class thinks that on the whole they have done pretty well and are looking forward to their Senior year, with great hopes.

Joe played center where his height made the team’s best rebounder. Joe will not be back next year due to too many semesters. Next we have Larry Larriba, the team’s leading scorer. Larry, a junior, will not Ik� back next year either, but his great accuracy this year helped the team out of many tough spots. The only senior on the team this year was Tommy Boyer. Besides sparking the team for the season. Tommy won All-Northern honors, placing on the first team for the North. The Badgers have six returning lettermen next year; including four juniors and two sophomores. The juniors are speedy Malcolm Harden, long, lanky Denford Pitts, tricky Sam Aiton. and Joe Perez, sterling guard. Joe Urias Larry Larriba Joe Stephens Tommy Boyer Kddie Montoya Joe Perez The sophomores who have two more years are Eddie Montoya, first string guard and Joe Urias. who saw plenty of action. With this bunch of stars returning next year the Badgers look for a very good season in spite of the rough schedule. Action in Flagstaff game. (iardner and Wist lay it on Power in Commando Basketball. Sam Aiton Den ford Pitts The Prescott Badgers blew hot and cold throughout the 1947-48 basketball season. The Badgers broke about even, losing half and winning half. Coach Miller was definitely building this year as shown bv the fact that six lettermen will be back next year. The Badgers had a so-so season this year, but will definitely be out for high honors next year. The inexperienced Badgers lost their first five games but came back to beat some of the state’s outstanding teams. Although they finished eighth in the Northern Con- ference. the Badgers managed to finish fourth in the Northern Tourney. Sparked by Tommy Boyer. All- Northern forward, the local quintet won three out of five games. Considering the lack of experience, the Badgers did very well this year.

The Girl's Physical Education Classes, under the direction of Miss Cary, carry on a well-rounded program in girls’ athletics. The school year began with archery as the main sport. When the weather got cooler, the girls played volleyball, table tennis, basketball, and badminton in the gym. Tournaments were run off in these sports with homeroom tourneys in volleyball and basketball. Then again in the spring, archery and softball were uppermost on their schedule of activities. Senior girls were not privileged to have a daily gym period in their schedules this year, however many participated in the sports offered by the GAA. A Drivers Training Course under the supervision of the State Traffic Safety Division was given to the girls by Miss Cary. These classes studied the book entitled. “The Man and the Motor Car.” The Girls Athletic Association functions throughout tin year. All girls especially interested in sports take part m all the club’s activities. Games and tournaments are held after school hours. Points are earned on a basis of participation in sports which count toward obtaining GAA numerals, emblems, and four and six inch letters. The GAA Officials Club is composed .of junior and senior girls who offficiate as referees, umpires, scorekeepers. linesmen, or timekeepers for the various tournaments held throughout the year. Points are given toward earning letters for this work. Playnights sponsored by the GAA provide fun and recreation for all those who attend. Money made from these playnights applies toward the award fund and athletic funds. On March 13. 1 5 girls from the Clarkdale High school came to Prescott for a bad- minton playday. Clarkdale won. having 17 games to Prescott’s 15. April 3, 12 girls from PHS w'ent to Clarkdale for a return playday. downing Clarkdale. 20 to 12 games.

This year’s Hop was bigger and better than ever before. Looking Lorward Prescott. Arizona 1958 Mary Minucci Women’s Division Alcatraz Prison Dear Mary: Oh! What a day! I’ve just staggered weakly home from a reunion of the class of ’48. Believe me, it was an experience! As I was hurrying to the meeting house who should drive by but Norma Jones. To my amazement I learned that she has joined the union of lady garbage collectors! She even has her own ultra-modern garbage dispensory unit. As Norma and I stood there talking shop, we were accosted by none other than Harold Kuhne. peddling Popsickles on his good-humor wagon. The reunion was a smashing success! The decorations were quite striking and most unusual. Virginia Pruitt, who collects rare species of subterranean sea-weed, had carefully adorned the hall with an artistic array of her assortments. The meeting had barely gotten under way when the doors flew open and in charged Frank Gay and Jimmy Gardner. Jimmy had a legitimate excuse for tardiness. He simply couldn’t find a substitute to take his kindergarten class. Frank, who is rumored to be a boot- legger. brought a sample of his finest bath-tub gin for each of us. The afternoon’s entertainment consisted of various performers from within our own group. Corky Frost, who has become a professsional hog-caller, gave a top-notch performance. We always prophesied that he would go places with that voice of his! A charming act was put on by Pat Hill, the snake charmer at the Green Frog. That trombone of hers certainly does spectacular things to those little reptiles. “Punkin” Rohrer has gained continental recog- nition in recent years for her grace and agility as an aerialist. We were all anxious to watch her perform, but due to the fact that the chandeliers were covered with relics from Virginia’s sea-weed collection, there was no room available in which to string her clothesline. Other special entertainment was given by Ann Fomara. doing her famous bubble dance, and Marilyn Reykdal. the president of the W. C. T. U.. who gave a lengthy address on the-evils of alcohol. Unfortunately. Janet Ramage and Margaret Somervell were unable to attend our successful reunion. Janet is the seal feeder in the local zoo and our meeting conflicted with their dinner hour. Margaret, as you know, abandoned her post with the Salvation Army to become a barker in a carnival. She sent her deepest regrets at not being able to attend, but. as she stated. “Business before pleasure!” Many of our happy congregation could not abandon their jobs entirely and so were forced to bring a sample of their work with them. In a far corner, for instance. David Wist sat huddled intently over the new’ marble tombstone which he was engraving with loving care. Genevieve Jones reclined at anothei table surrounded by empty tubes and. in a most painstaking manner, stuffed them full of toothpaste by means of a handy-dandy plastic all-purpose tooth- pick (an invention of that famous scientist, Donna Lee Fain). All during the program samples and advertising pamphlets were circulated freely. Stuart Jones, who is the offifcial tester for Pond’s Lips, donated a small tube of lipstick to each of the ladies present, and Kenny Lyons, the local distributor for Unguentine. presented each gentleman with a complimentary smear of his product. As Sally Tutt with painstaking care wound aluminum threads about cast iron yo-yos. she became exhausted by the intense concentration and deep meditation required. With a mournful wail she careened into her platter of avocado and lobster salad (prepared by that notorious dietitian, Jimmy living) in a dead faint. An alarm was sounded for the house physician and who should respond but Ralph Sandler, the world renowned obstretician, accompanied by his colleagues. Ix is Forry. the psychoanalyst and Lester LeMay. professor of anatomy in Simm’s School for the Blind. Amid the tumult and shouting resulting from Sally’s sudden relapse, three members of the local underworld descended upon us—“Crusher” Simmons, that devastating gun-moll; “Southern Pacific” By bee. the iron-horse thief; and “Fingers” Bishopp. that successful counterfeiter. Hot on their trail was Joe Gonzales, house detective for Hallie’s Young World. At their sudden approach, the delicate Esther Hayes, chambermaid at Dew’ Droppe Inn. ran screaming from the room. The meeting was adjourned shortly after Suzie Markus, the saleslady for jet-propelled pogo-sticks, extended an invitation for us all to visit the new combination hermitage and old maid’s retreat, run by Janis Verhey, which has recently been constructed near Indian Hill. Well. Mary, the intern is impatiently holding my straight-jacket while I write to you, so I must close. Do come and sec me when you get paroled. Your loving classsmate. Anne FALL “School days, school days, good old . SOPHOMORES Merle Allen Floyd Cook Patsy Howard Betty Yost President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer The class of '50 have had one grand time in their first year in Senior High. The first event of the year which was held for us was the Icebreaker’s Dance and we really did break the ice—if not completely then—we certainly did fall through at the painting of the “P” shortly following. The day for painting the “P” was the big day for the Seniors and Sophomores this year. Briefly, this is an age old tradition of initiating the Sophs to make them respect the upperclassmen. We started out pretty peppy and with a lot of vim and vigor from the Junior High School. We were quite a sight to a passerby with our brooms, pails, old Levis, shirts, bandanas, and with a S branded upon our heads in lipstick. It seemed to be an endless process of climbing up the hill with pails of water and then back down again, of course, with a Senior on your trail with a broom handy. From that day forth, the response of a sophomore at the sight of a broom was a little weird! After our tortorous climb up we were quite surprised at our ability to use a broom as we furiously swept whitewash in every nook and crevice. In spite of all our bumps and bruises we had a wonderful time. The day was topped off by some wieners and Spud-nuts that tasted wonderful and renewed our strength. Following our initiation we met and elected our class officers. Merle Allen, president; Floyd Cook, vice president; Patsv Howard, secretary; Betty Yost, treasurer; and Pop McNarie. advisor; have served as a very faithful, dependable, and smooth running cabinet. The theme of our first dance was Western. It was well planned with the help of Pop McNarie, and everyone had a swell time. In sports this year our class as a whole was represented especially well by the number of Soph boys that went out for football. Several boys lettered in both football and basketball. The girls have proven to be particularly outstanding in archery, as they had some of the highest scores in school. Nancy Madison and Betty Yost won honors for the sophomores in archery by placing first and third in the (iAA tournament. In May we had our Sophomore talent assembly where some outstanding abilities were revealed. . Also in May, as is the custom, we sponsored a dance with the ninth graders as our guests. About that time the ninth graders came to visit Senior High and we. being their big sisters and brothers, guided the bewildered freshmen through the rough daily routine at P. H. S. We felt quite consoled knowing there was some other group even less rspected than us in f°Inaall seriousness however, we have really had lots of fun being Sophomores and we are looking forward to an equally successful vear as Juniors.

With a strong defense and a relatively weak offense, the I Badgers lost one heart breaker after another. Never I beaten by more than one touchdown, the Badgers [ disappointed the pre-season dopesters by losing their first four games. The Badgers lost to Glendale 19 12. to Flagstaff 7-0. and to their arch-rivals from Jerome 1 F6 on a touchy decision by a referee.

The Badgers helped [ the undefeated Winslow Bulldogs celebrate their homecoming by handing them a 13-0 shellacking I and the next week slaughter Kingman 27 0. In the final homecoming game Prescott played host to mighty St. Marys. Figured as five touchdown underdogs the Badgers outfought the Knights from the start and led 7-6 going into the last three minutes. The Badgers season-long jinx was not to be denied, how'ever. and St. Marys scored in the final minutes making the final count 12-7. Prescott on defense. Lacking reserves the Badgers were forced to start a team of iron-men. Each player had to play almos1 the entire game. As most of these boys were seniors. Prescott will again be short of lettermen next year. Prescott fielded a heavy, though inexperienced line featuring at right end. lanky Harold Kuhne weighing 175 and standing 6’ 1”. at right tackle little Stan Power who weighed only 230 lbs. Prescott’s captain was right guard Bob Taylor. Hard-working Bob weighed 165 and stood 5’ 9”. In the center spot was Dick Bishopp. one of the returning letter m m at 170. On the other side mighty David Wist weighing 155 and towering 5’ 7” could be found at left guard. At tackle, the Badgers had Bill Martin, a junior, a mere 185 pounds, and at left end either Gen' Allen or Frank Gay. Prescott’s backfield featured the other two re- turning lettermen. tricky Andy Rivas at fullback and hard-hitting Jimmy Gardner at quarterback. Right half was played by Tommy Boyer, the Badger’s signal caller, while the left half spot was held by either speedster Malcolm Ilardin or bone crushing Joe Stephens.
