EDITOR’S NOTE Today our land is engulfed in a conflict which threatens the perpetuation of,our cherished free dom. Because of this fact we have adopted a theme which symbolizes the desire of the students of our school to bring to our shores the eagle of victory and achieve our ultimate goal of a better America. It has been our endeavor to prepare and adjust ourselves to the task which lies before us—that of helping civilization to rise from the depths of destruction to the heights of prosperity and peace.

The Student Council, composed of Forum officers and repre sentatives from each of the classes working under supervision of Mr. Donald Ensign, has done a great deal to make the assembly pro grams beneficial and interesting. Following a suggestion of the Council, each home room presented a program in assembly. The group, presenting the program chosen as best by the majority of the student body, received an award. The sense of competition added zest to the assemblies. Besides assemblies especially for entertainment purposes, numerous educational films were shown, safety talks given and pep meetings held. The series of National Assemblies, six in number, were of widely varied nature. One of the outstanding events of the social season was the Freshman reception, sponsored by the Forum. Clyde Wiggins and George Plecas served as student body presi dents, first and second semesters respectively. Other first semes ter officers were: June Redmond, secretary; Dolly Holford, treas urer. In the second semester Dick Bragg was vice-president; Meredyth Willard, secretary; Henry Rodriquez, treasurer; John Krmpo tich, custodian; Jimmy Woodring and Buddy Skousen, color guards.

FRESHMAN CUSS A high spirited but rather green crop of Freshmen started their high school careers under the leadership of Mr. Lunceford. After scrubbing sidewalks and obeying Seniors’ commands for two days, even the greenest ones were thoroughly initiated and ready to go with Mr. Jenkin to paint the “C”. The Frosh were then entertained by the Forum at a reception given in their honor and were ready to enter into the normal school activities.

The Clarkdale Wolves came through the season with a fairly good record, including five wins, two losses and one tie. The team started the season slowly, deadlocking with the Williams Vik ings in a scoreless tie at Williams. Although Clarkdale was three times in side the opponents’ 10 yard line, the Wolves were not able to reach pay dirt. The Wolves went into high gear against Flagstaff, beating them 25 to 0. With Guillen ripping the opposing line to shreds and Teague skirting the ends, Clarkdale swept four times to touchdowns. The Wolves’ forward wall functioned well and deserves a great deal of credit for the win. After both Clarkdale then journeyed to Winslow to play the Bulldogs. teams had fought through three scoreless periods, the Wolves racked up the only counter of the game when Marion Teague plunged over the goal late in the fourth quarter. Plecas and Riley turned in outstanding performances.

mm unew The Wolves pounded to a 27 to 0 victory over the St. Johns Redskins with big Tony Guillen leading the way. Guillen powered to touchdowns in both the first and second periods. Harry Strahan scored from the 45 yard line in the second quarter and Clyde Wiggins scored from the 35 in the third period. Wellington and Yates sparked a line that paved the way for the Wolves’ advance. Clarkdale hit its peak in the game here with the favored Kingman Bull dogs. Heading for their fourth straight victory, the Wolves started early with Wiggins flipping a 20 yard pass to Salvador Medina who made a leap ing catch and fell over the goal line. The Wolves scored their second touch down on a line plunge i-n the second period. In the fourth period Wiggins twice swept around left end to touchdowns behind the beautiful blocking of Teague, Thompson and Guillen. Tavasci was outstanding in a heads-up aggregation on the line. The Wolves met the Prescott Badgers in a hard fought game in Pres cott. Up until this game, the combined opposition had not been able to cross Clarkdale’s goal line, but the Badgers crossed it twice and handed the Wolves a 12 to 0 setback. Clarkdale bounced back from this defeat at the hands of Prescott and handed the Phoenix Indians a 26 to 0 trouncing. Led by Guillen, the Clark dale machine roared to four touchdowns in the first three quarters and coast ed to its fifth victory. On November 11, the Wolves played Jerome in their traditional Armistice Day game. The Clarkdale forward wall repelled the Jerome attack The Wolves twice time and again in the shadows of its own goal posts, threatened but failed to score. With two minutes of playing time remaining Jerome punched over the tally that won the game 6 to 0. Coach Russell Goddard loses eight valuable players through graduation but has promising material with which to build a team that should go places next fall.

DICK “DICKIE” BRAGG: Junior, quarterback. Dick’s speed and ball packin’ ability made up for his littleness. Hope to see you back fighting for Clarkdale High next year * * * TOM “LIMBER LEGS” CHAVEZ: Sophomore, halfback. If it hadn’t been for Tom’s bad leg, we might have seen more of him this year. You still have two more years, Tom, so let’s go in there. * * * PAUL “DADDY” CRICK: Sophomore, fullback. Al though handicapped most of the year by injuries, Paul did have a chance to see a little action. * * * RICHARD “DICKIE” DALEY. Junior end. Dick is the kid that was in shape this year. Dick chalked up some points in ’41, so let’s go for more next year * * * F. B. “C. I. O.” FOLEY: Sophomore. Foley was our all-around man. He showed he could do it, re gardless of position. FRED “SAILBOAT” GUERRERO: Freshman, halfback. Even though Fred came out a little late, that did not stop him. He stayed right in there until the season was over. * * * FERNANDO “FERDINAND” GUILLEN: Freshman, end. Fernando was as tough as they come. He didn’t get into many games, but caused trouble when he did get into action. * * * TONY “SUDRO” GUILLEN: Junior, fullback. This line smashing, pile driving 190 pound fullback could always be depended upon to pick up/the necessary yardage. His value to the team was unlimited. * * * BILL “HOOLEY” HALTIGAN: Junior, tackle. Man Mountain Hooley has one more year for C. H. S. He proved to be a good getter-inner and messer-upper and also showed us he was faster than we thought he was. * * * RALPH “TWINKLETOES” HITES: Sophomore, guard. This is Ralph’s first year and whoever played opposite him knew he was there. Tough and fast, Hites caused plenty of trouble in the games he got into. BILLY “CURLY” HUNTER: Sophomore, quarterback. When it comes to calling signals, Billy was in there and always fighting. * * DICK “LARDO” MASON: Sophomore, guard. Although Lardo didn’t see much action, he stayed out there and kept fighting. * * * JACK “BADGER” McLAIN: Junior, end. Jack was end for C. H. S. and showed us that he could snag ’em out of the air too. * * * SALVADOR “SULLY” MEDINA: Junior, end. This southpaw pass snagger from Centerville was our aerial offensive threat. His pass catching ability set up more than one score for Clarkdale.
Page Thirty-four
TONY “MAN MAULER” MORENO: Junior, center. When Tony hits 'em, they stay hit. ..Ask St. Johns. All we can say is “Opponents, beware next year”. * * * STEVE "IRISH” O’BRIEN: Senior guard. O’Brien, the “Fighting Irishman” playing his last year for C. H. S., did a bang up job at the guard position. * * * GEORGE “CUNADO” PLECAS: Senior center. This tough center, playing his third year with the varsity, did every thing well. He never threw a bad pass and his defensive work was master ful. * * * ROY “SCRAP-IRON” RILEY: Freshman, tackle, This chunk of dynamite not only made the first string in his Freshman year, but showed stuff that veteran football players are made of. * * * CHARLEY “PEE WEE” RUBY: Sophomore, halfback. Even though he could sit on a cigarette paper and let his feet dangle, Ruby proved pigskin totin’ was in his line too. NEI) “CHIEF” RUSSELL: Junior end. This tough end played hard all season with his knee in a brace. He will be back next year and he won’t be handicapped by lack of experience. * * * DARWIN “HURRY UP” RYAN: Sophomore, manager. Besides being a careful manager of the athletic equipment, Darwin furnished the squad entertainment with his com ical jokes and good humor. * * * HARRY “STROM” STRAHAN: Junior, halfback. Harry proved to be the speediest man on the team this year and opponents of next year better keep their eyes open for him. JOHNNY "DAGO” TAVASCI: Junior, tackle, Johnny was probably the most aggressive man on the squad. His bruising tackles jarred many an opponent’s teeth. * MARION “FUZZY” TEAGUE: CaDtain, Senior halfback. This hard running halfback was the spark of the Clarkdale of fense. His blocking and tackling were as outstanding as his running ability. HARLEY “DUSTY” THOMPSON: Senior, halfback. This 170 pound left halfback proved his metal at a ground gainer again this year, and his spirit and aggressiveness will be sorely missed next season * * * GEORGE “BULLDOG” TURNER: Senior, halfback. This was the year Turner had been looking forward to and he didn’t let it slip by. A credit to any team. * * * CLARENCE “CHUSPA” WELLINGTON: Senior guard. Although Clarence was handicapped by lack of weight, he made up for it in spirit and aggressiveness. C. H. S. will miss him next year. CLYDE “WIG” WIGGINS: Senior, quarterback. One of the brainiest quart erbacks in many years, Wig was not only a credit and spark to the team but the leading scorer. * * CHARLIE “ALABAMA” YATES: Senior, guard. Fight, spirit, ability, and determination made this 150 pound guard one of the mainstays in the Clarkdale forward wall. Charlie was selected on the All-Northern squad this year.

The Wolves of Clarkdale High, coached by Mr. Russell Goddard, finished the 1941-42 basketball season with a much improved ball club. Starting v/lth a green and inexperienced squad, the boys so improved that by rnid-#ea#oo they were one of the most dangerous teams in the Northern Conference. After dropping the first three games, the Wolves hit their stride and lost but two of the remaining games. The outlook for next year is bright as all but two of this year's first ten will be returning. Frank Lopez, captain of the 1942 team, will be graduated, and ineligibility will take Salvador Medina out of the line-up. Frank Lopez received a three-year letter; Harry Strahan and Salva dor Medina, two-year letters. Players who received one-year letters were Dick Daley, Dick Bragg, David Zardenetta, Jack McLain, Henry Rodriquez, William Tom and Steve Gutierrez. The Pup squad, composed of four sophomores and one junior, played the second teams of Winslow, Flagstaff, Jerome and Glendale.

ROT SCOUTS, TROOP 217 The roll book for Boy Scout Troop 217 contained names of forty-nine boys this year. With Chet Jones as Scoutmaster the boys carried out many useful and interesting projects. The Scouts have taken an active part in National Defense work and have had training in Senior Scouting which will enable them to aid in emergencies. A part of such work was the twenty-hour Red Cross First Aid course which the troop took this spring under the instruction of Mr. Carl Herring Sr. The collecting of paper and aluminum was another contribution to the defense effort. Activities in sports were prominent in the program, For the fifth consecutive year Troop 217 won the relay race at the Prescott swimming meet, thereby receiving the trophy awarded as a permanent possession. The two outstanding excursions were the four-day trip to the Grand Canyon in August and the pack trip to Sycamore Canyon during Easter vacation. Troop scribe is David Cotner. Patrol leaders are Carl Hance, Milton Lindner, Roy Riley and Jerry O’Brien.
ROT SCOUTS, TROOP 21S Boy Scout Troop 218 with Scoutmaster Adolph Orrantia as mentor enjoyed an active year. Observing the Scout maxim of Preparedness, the troop has mobilezed for National Defense. Along with other timely training, the boys have worked particularly to master the technique of signaling by means of the Morse Code. Members of Troop 218 assisted in the collecting of paper and helped in the canvas made to locate homes for evacuees in case such were needed. The Scouts have engaged in many sports activities including basket ball, softball and hiking. An extended trip was made to Sycamore Canyon. In April the boys were hosts at a dance. Also on the social calendar was the Father-Son banquet. Tony Moreno was assistant Scoutmaster; Pablo Rodriquez, scribe; and Robert Leon, Armando Esqueda, and Fred Guerrero, patrol leaders.

SAFETY fOlllUL The Safety Council, one of the outstanding service organizations of Clarkdale High School, worked under the supervision of Mr. Adolph Orrantia. Mr. Orrantia organized this group a year ago. Since that time, the council has functioned very successfully. The seventeen boys, who voluntarily offered their services in order to promote a better observance of safety, patrolled the street crossings at noon and at other times when there were a number of students on the street. The Council held regular weekly meetings to discuss safety prob lems and to work out a program which would increase its efficiency. Letters were awarded to members of the organization. Robert Despain, Charles Griffin, Wallace Collum and Bud Skousen received two-year letters. In addition to their regular duties, seven boys were assigned to par ticular stations to regulate traffic in air raid drills. On February 19 the council members were guests of the home econ omics classes at a dinner. Robert Despain served for the second year as captain of the group. Donald Beltz was chosen secretary.

mm erne The Debate Club was not so active as usual this year because of the cancellation of the Interscholastic Debate Contest which has been held annually in Flagstaff for the past several years. Clyde Wiggins represented Clarkdale in the Northern district compe tition of the Arizona Republic State Oratorical contest, which was held at Flagstaff on February 26. Clyde, speaking on “Liberty Under Law,” was awarded third place in this meet. The local contest winner was deter mined at a meeting of the Kiwanis Club at which four Seniors delivered their orations over a public address system, the speakers not being iden tified to their audience. The contestants were Clyde Wiggins, Betty Lind ner, Mary Dunsmore and Meredyth Willard. During several meetings the members of the class recorded their voices. These records were later used for the study of the voice in public speaking. Mr. R. C. Lunceford was the debate coach.

"OH, PROMISE ME” The Senior class of 1942 chose as its play “Oh, Promise Me”, a three-act comedy. Under the supervision and direction of Miss Blanche Rayle, the play was successfully presented on the evening of April 17. The plot centered around the love affairs of Barry Hollis, a young playboy. Various complications arose and made a jolly and swift-moving comedy.

DRUM AID RUM CORPS The Drum and Bugle Corps is now in its third year. Organized in the fall of 1939, it has since been an active part of the music department. During the past year the girls engaged in a variety of activities. The corps marched at the home football games and at the Flagstaff-Tempe Frosh game. The girls were all guests at the first annual High School Day held by ASTC in Flagstaff, performing between halves of the ASTC-Texas State game. Two appearances were made in Jerome, the first at the Armistice Day football game and the second at the basketball game in February. To help pay for the uniforms the girls sold tickets on a turkey raffled at the Tempe-FlagstafF Frosh game. They also sponsored the sale of tickets for the Flagstaff College Symphonic Band concert in March. The girls were led by Majorette Betty Lindner. The twirlers were Joyce McLain and Teddy Hicks. Meredyth Willard performed as flag thrower.
A CAPPELLA CHOIR The A Cappella Choir, under the direction of Mr. de Pont, sang on several occasions during the year. At the graduation exercises the choir sang “Heavenly Light” by Kapylow Wilhousky and “Onward, Ye People” by Sibelius. In November a group from the A Cappella Choir, selected by a central committee, went to Phoenix to participate in the first All-State Chorus, which sang at one of the meetings of the Arizona Education Association convention. The members who were chosen to take part in this event were Thelma Bailey, Gladys Chambers, Roberta Ferrin, Billy Hunter, Dale Hites, Carl Herring, Preston Heinle, Marjorie Jones, Edward King, Marie Lysons, Melba Shockley, George Truscott and Meredyth Willard.
s
The choir met every Tuesday evening for rehearsals. Page Sixty-one
GIRLS’ GLEE CLUE The Girls’ Glee Club this year was composed of seventeen regular members, the majority of whom were Freshmen. A few upper classmen were able to arrange their seventh periods in order to join the organiza tion. Several members of the club were selected to make the trip to Phoenix in November to sing in the All-State Chorus. The cancellation of the Music Festival, which has been held each spring in Flagstaff for the past several years, eliminated an activity in which the Glee Club has previously par ticipated. In practices special emphasis was placed on sight reading and voice training. The group sang at a meeting of the Kiwanis Club and also at the graduation exercises. The Glee Club worked under the direction of Mr. Richard de Pont, director.
The band, under the direction of Mr. Richard de Pont, suffered a “bad case of graduation in 1941” and consequently was made up this year largely.of beginning students. A number of the members are in the junior high school this year, a fact which promises the development of a band of merit within a few years as the players gain experience. As it was necessary to-devote the first part of the year to the study of fundamentals, the band made no public appearances until basketball sea son. However, Dr. de Pont praised the band members for their accom plishment and is looking forward to a good year next year. Band practices were held in the mornings at seven-thirty o’clock.
