HEAD COACH NELSON Our superintendent was born in Tombstone, Arizona, and later moved to Thatcher where he attended the Gila Academy. He then entered Flagstaff Teachers' College. graduating with his A.B. de- gree, and the University of Arizona, where he received his Master's degree. While at the university. he was a member of Phi Delta Kappa. Mr. Nelson was married in February, 1919, to Miss Sadie Goodman. Although the supervision of Salford High School keeps him pretty busy. Mr. Nelson takes a prominent part in civic activities, being a member of the Chamber of Commerce, Education Association, Arizona State Board of Edu- cation, Executive Committee of Arizona. and on the Board of Directors of the Rotary Club in Safford. In 1935 he became superintendent here at Safford High School, and he still thinks the kids are all okeydoke. ASSISTANT COACH MITCHELL Born in Parawan, Utah, we find an outstanding citizen personified in J. H. Mitchell. He is a member of the Rotary Club in Safford, and a member of the State Teachers' Association. For his early schooling Mr. Mitchell looks back to Cedar City, Utah. From Cedar City we find him next going to the Utah State Agriculture College where he received his B.S. degree. He attended three years summer session at the University of Arizona. Salt Lake City was the scene of his marriage in l923 to Miss Bertrude Seeley. After graduation from Utah State, We find him as basketball coach of Saf- ford High School. His second year here elevated him to the position of principal and he is as yet the same loyal and most outstanding figure of Salford High School. Page .vevevav-The Orotdln

We held our first meeting September 8, at 3:30 o'clock. The dates on the Calendar were set for the events of the first smester. Meetings were held every two weeks at which various steps were taken for the good of the high school. The high spot in the year's activities. and the one most looked forward to by our officers. was the Student Gflicers Convention which was held at Prescott. The officers from Thatcher High School accompanied us and as our chaperon we chose Miss Morgan. We were entertained with a joint luncheon and busif ness meeting which lasted for five hours. Improvements and experiments in high school government were discussed and Yuma was decided upon as next year's convention city. We came away with many ideas and memories of a good time.
