The Coconino sun., 1927-04-22

college, was the announcement made
this week by President Grady Gam
mage.
This course, President Gammage
said, is not to be confused with the
regular home economic course in the
usually accepted meaning, but is de-
signed expressly for teachers who are
called upon to teach vocational home
making in rural schools with little
equipment 1t is an attempt to help
such teachers fit worth while pro-
gram into their work with minimum
friction and maximum results, he said.
Mrs. Grace Farrell, superintendent
of schools of Santa Cruz county, who
will work in cooeration with the state
department of vocational education
and the college here, has been selected
for this important course. She will
offer it the first five weeks of the
summer school and if there is suf-
ficient demand, she will repeat the
course the last half of the quarter.
Mrs. Farrell has had considerable
experience in this work with her
rural teachers in Santa Cruz county
and is well qualified to handle it.
Rural school teachers who are
qualified to do this work, and those
teachers who are planning on receiv-
ing state aid next year, should get in
touch with Mrs. Farrell or the college
for further particulars.
Coach E. H. "Swede" Lynch will
enter eleven athletes in the Greenway
classic tomorrow at Phoenix.
It is not expected that we will make
a deep-rooted impression IN the meet
as weather conditions here have been
anything but suitable for conditioning
men.
Most Of the training has been under
adverse conditions and while the local
armory has been place of refuge
in severe weather, it has not been al
together conducive to the right sort
of training.
Dopesters here rate US at the bottom
of the list in the informal training.
The only thing we figure on cop
ping is the pole vault. In this Jensen
has been skirting the bar in practice
around II 1-2 feet.
In the sprints, Lynch has Easley:
former Mesa high school star, who
finished third in the 100 yard dash
and second in the 220 last year at the
Greenway in the high school class.
AS a running mate Easley will have
Hayden, speedy sprint man, who is
looked upon to place in both the 100
and 220.
1t is coniuctural, however, just how
the balance of Coach Lynch's team
will fare. In the 40, we have Billie
Black of Clarkdale and Hoddy Stevens
of Douglas. Perry Webb of Durango.
will run the $50 and the mile, with
Con Langenegger of Yuma as run
ming partner. Langenegger is fast
man with lot of endurance and It he
can keep in the lane he will stand
good chance of finishing near the top.
In the field events, the teachers
have entered Jack Wilson of Bisbee
and Caffey of Flagstaff in the discus
and javelin; Wilson and Stevens,
broad jump; Shumway of Mesa and
Pace of Clarkdale in the high jump.
In the hurdles, Stevens and Black
are the best bets. Easley, Hayden,
Stevens and Black will comprise the
relay team.
Applications for entrance into the
second annual northern Arizona high
school music contest are being re-
ceived in large numbers every day
and assurance is that the majority of
the high schools in this part OF the
state will have representatives here
on Saturday, April 80, to participate
in the many events.
Between 10 and Is high schools
will be represented and it is believed
that the contest this year will bring
forth the cream of northern Arizona
musical talent at one of the largest
contests of the kind ever staged in
northern Arizona.
The musical contest is a yearly
event sponsored by the college and is
being chairmaned this year by Prof. j.
Rufus Crandell, musical director of
the Snowflake high school. Recogni-
ton and rating in the separate events
will be determined by Professor G. ".
Ridgley and Miss Mildred Whetsel,
music officials of the college.
Flagstaff. Snowflake, st. Johns and
Williams have already signified inten-
ton to enter the contest and it is be-
lieved that the high schools of Clark
dale. Holbrook, Jerome, Kingman,
TIGSGOLb, dAACS ara w AAAoAO "
will enter. Possibilities are, too, that
several other towns not listed above
will take part. Lakeside junior high,
a new entrant, has expressed desire
to compete.
Instrumental solos including piano,
violin, brass and reed instruments, or
chestra and band will be heard. Both
young men and women will be given
trials in voice, including choruses,
solos. quartets and mixed numbers.
Each group or soloist will be al
lowed to give only two selections. In
case of a tie, third selection will be
given. Permission was also granted
to have junior high school students
participate in case district does not
offer work of senior high school
grade. These young people viii rem
der work in choruses and be allowed
to enter in the intermediate soloist
contest. Two students from each
school will be all that will be allowed
in the solo events.
Snowflake was winner of the con-
test last year, in which nearly 800
high school students participated.
Winners in the several events and
contests will be awarded pins or BAN
ners as recognition of their talents
