DAVIS OF TEACHERS COL
LEGE ON ALL STATE TEAM

Flagstaff Teachers college
gets one on the mythical first
all-Arizona basketball team of
1926 and two on the second
choice team.
The choice was made by IA coaches,
officials and observers associated with
the invitation tournament of Phoenix
Junior college last Friday and Satur-
day.
Those three teams-the Tempe
Teachers college Bulldogs, who won
/ their second consecutive conference
championship; the Gila college Red
Devils, runners-up for the second time
consecutively, and the Flagstaff
Teachers college Lumberiacks-con
tribute all players for the second all
conference team, as well as those for
the first.
However, each of the six conference
members is represented on the first
three aH-star aggregations. The in
ability of three of the teams to place
higher than the third all-star team is
explained by the fact that none Of
fers more than two years of college
work Those three conference mem
bers are freshmen-first year men
at the University of Arizona; the
Phoenix Junior college, offering two
years of college work, and the Phoe-
nix Indian school, which offers no
college work.
DAVIS, Flagstaff's 20o-pound
standing guard, nosed L. Allen,
Tempe. for standing guard honors.
Davis was the first team choice of
seven. Allen was chosen by five.
Four placed Davis on the second team
and three accorded Allen second team
honers. Davis played magnificent
game, breaking up more plays than
probably any other individual in the
The Coconino sun., 1926-03-05

tournament. He lacked the defensive
accorded Allen.
HEDDERMAN of Flagstaff was
chosen by seven for the other for
ward, and wins the place.
DETLOFF, Flagstaff, is shifted
from his regular center position to
second team running guard. He was
chosen by one for first team center,
by seven for second team center and
by two for second team running
guard. While it is true that rum
ming guard will not necessarily prove
a good center, it is a fact that a
capable center should prove fully as
competent running guard. Those
making selections were too much in
agreement as to Detloff being second
team material to permit his being left
off that aggregation.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The first year home economics
class of the. high school entertained
at two luncheons this past week in the
dining room of the home economics
laboratory. The class was divided
into two sections, one section serving
the luncheon and the other acting as
guests. At Fridays luncheon Mary
Hoffman was hostess. Guests besides
members of the class were Miss Eu-
nice Jones and Miss Louise Snyder.
On Tuesday the hostess was Jewell
Pierson and the honor guests, Miss
Eleanore Greenlaw and Miss Olive Nc
Nerney.
Color schemes were effectively car
ried out in centerpieces and menus
which were as follows: Baked beans,
Boston brown bread, vegetable salad,
orange pudding, cocoa, salmon souffle,
French fried potatoes, hot biscuits,
jelly, Pistachio salad, orange sherbet,
waters.
The high school senior chop" was
given Friday, February 26 in the
high school auditorium and it GER
tainly was "put over" in great style.
The auditorium was decorated in
purple and gold, the class colors. In
the center of the hall lattice Of pur-
pie and gold crepe paper with
streamers going to the walls made
the hall very attractive. A laroe 26
Of purple and gold was in the middle
of the stage. The programs were Of
yellow paper with purple Old
English 'F'' at the top. They were
arranged for 16 dances and the class
roll was printed inside the back cover.
The music was furnished by Doc"
Williams orchestra and 1t was prob
ably the best music ever heard at a
dance at Flagstaff High.
About ten o'clock all-day suckers,
confetti and serpentine were passed
out. Then about II o'clock J. 2. Nc
Vey announced a prize waltz. The
prizes were given to Catherine Mil
Ter and Howard Lockwood.
At 1870 ''Home Sweet Home" was
played and every one went home tired
but happy. It takes the seniors to
put on good party. They planned
everything in three days and the
chop" was certainly a big success.
