SEE THE JUNIOR RODEO

Great efforts are being put
forth by the members of the
p. T. A to make the Junior
Rodeo, to be given in Cool
idge on November 2, the
most successful event of the
kind ever staged here, and
the indications are that no
one will be disappointed in
these expectations, for all
are in the spirit and respond
ing most favorable to this
day of sport and amusement.
The program being prepared
is most amusing and inter-
tanning and worth going
miles to see. This event has
attracted large crowds every
year, and, encouraged by
this, the committee has pro-
vided a program of rea
thrills for this occasion. II
you miss this, don't blame
any one but yourself.

COOLIDGE UNION
HIGH PROGRESSES

Despite many handicaps
Coolidge Union high school
is now fully established and
takes its place as one Of the
high schools OF the state.
The delay in forming the
high school district present
ed the school board with the
difficult program Of orgsniz-
ing a high school within the
brief period Of less than two
months.
The major problems that
confronted the Board of Ed
ucation were the securing Of
a completely new faculty,
providing classrooms in tenn
porary quarters and financ-
ing the school with a per
capita budget much less than
that Of many high schools
with complete equipment
and fully established.
With the assistance Of the
appointment bureau OF the
University of Arizona and
the cooperation Of the Col
lege Of Education of the Uni
versity a highly trained fac
ulty was scured that in schol-
astic preparation ranks with
the very highest in the state.
Through the generous and
whole-hearted cooperation
of the various organizations,
adequate classroom facilities
have been provided. and
classes have been conducted
with a minimum Of inconven-
ience.
BY carrying out a policy OF
strict economy the board of
education is making it pos
sible 10 operate the school
and keep within the limited
budget. To do this it has
been necessary 10 somewhat
limit the curriculum and Of
fer only the essential
courses of study.
Perhaps the most gratify-
ing feature of the launching
Of the new high school is the
fine enthusiasm Of faculty
and students. The attend
ance from the district has
been one hundred per cent,
giving the school an nroll-
ment Of one hundred and
twenty-five, which places it
in the upper fifty per cent
OF the schools of the state in
size.
The PWA administrator
for Arizona has advised that
the application of Coolidge
Union high school district
for a loan and grant has not
been rejected and may be
approved.
A meeting was arranged
by the board for a conference
Thursday in Phoenix with
high state and federal Off
cials for the purpose of con-
sulting together and deter
mining what may be done TO
secure favorable action on
the PWA loan and grant. In

Especial to The Examiner)

Especial to The Examiner)
The Coolidge high school
board had an hour and a half
session with Governor B. B.

the merits of the Coolidge

Governor Moeur agreed to
take the matter directly to
President Franklin d. Roose-

the head of the list in meet
ing all PWA requirements.
He stated that he has pushed
and will continue to push the

reports at the meeting.
The above dispatch comes
from the Coolidge Union high
school board who, joined by
Supt. G.. M. Mangum and
Senator Ellington, went to
Phoenix to confer with Gov
ernor Moeur, Senator Carl
Hayden and District Super

to securing PWA funds for

The governor. Senator Hay

themselves as being very fav-
orable to our high school
project and the board feels
that they will do everything

secure this aid for our
school.
