How Tucson Got
Its Name

Several popular myths regard,
ing the antiquity of Tucson and
the origin of its name have been
exploded, possibly forever, by re,
publication Of a booklet written in
1913 by the late DR.. Merrill P.
Freeman, many years chancellor
of the University of Arizona and
an earnest student of southwestern
history. Historians of today are
hoping never again to hear the
oft-repeated claim that Tucson is
''the oldest city in the United
States" 1t has plenty of legitimate
claims to fame, say they, without
pretending to more than its actual
age.
DR.. Freeman's booklet, 1.-THE City
of Tucson, its Foundation and the
Origin of It's Name" at the time
ii was printed attracted little at
tention except from a few scholars
The enthusiastic reception of this
new edition in history has spread
in the meantime Tucsonians are
now eager for the truth about
their city's noble past, even il it
runs counter to cherished tradt-
tions and Chamber of Commerce
enthusiasm.
After examining all the evidence,
when the Mexican Government
established military presidio
here. Prior to that a few Indians
ad raised corn and beans in the
vicinity, but their nearest village
was a miles or so TO the west and
across the Santa Curz River. That
village. thought, gave its name to
what is today the second city of
Arizona.

st. Augustine, Florida, was
founded in 1865 and Santa Fe,
New Mexico, between 1905 anG
1910 Both, therefore, are much
older than Tucson. Nevertheless.
enthusiasts whom DR.. Freeman calls
cheerful chumps' are constantly
repeating the old falsehood that
Tucson was born in 1852.

Arizona should be advertised to

An amount of money estimated
to produce the maximum number
of inquiries from those Interested

state each year and spent with
discrimination and wisdom.
This money should be used for

classes will notice an amazing
change in teaching since his own
schoolboy days. David's father
could tell you that.
David asked him for a piece of
coal to take to school the next
morning But why do you want a
piece of coal, SOM" Because,
explained David patiently, 1--WE are
studying all about energy in our
science class at school and we're
going to inspect piece of coal
and trace its history back to its
beginning. In each step we're go
ing to show how energy passed
from one thing to another and how
it can all be traced back to the
sun. After we get all through with
coal, we're going to do the same
thing with gasoline and electricity.
Dad put down his paper. well,
son, that's quite an undertaking
for a lad your size. What else do
you do IN this class?'
"If you want to know, Dad, it's
a swell class" Dad raised an eye
brown. He couldn't remember ex-
pressing such enthusiasm over his
science class when he went to
school. Dull textbooks might have
had something to do with it. I'VE
study all about the formation of
the earth" David went on, "and
about the sun and the planets and
what takes place on the earth to-
day and all that sort of thing. You
know-how mountains are made,
and volcanoes and earthquakes and
things" David was warming
up to his subject.
"Our teacher took US all out on
field trip not so long ago, to a
little stream where we all watched
the water cutting away the soil
and carrying it downstream. We
could see that the soft rocks were
worn down lot more than the
hard ones. And then when we
came back to class 1t was up to
us to find out why some rocks were
softer than others.
"Then some of us kids thought
il would be a grand idea to try
ort an erosion experiment in our
room, so we built a box about two
feet long and made hill of SOIL
We planted oats on one side and
left the other side bare. When the
grass grew up a few inches high
we made a little stream of water
go down both sides and the dirt
was washed away more on the un-
planted side than on the planted.

means that any soldier or sailor
may be buried in the cemetery If
he SO desires. II death has occur
red at some time in the past, the
body can be transferred upon re-
quest of relatives. The cemetery
is now ready for use. Four
soldiers were buried there Monday.
The previous week the body of
George H. Mallon, Minneapolis
war hero, who died a year ago,
was transferred to the new GENE
terry in impressive services. In the
near future the 700 soldiers whose
bodies are buried in the old Fort
Smelling cemetery are to be trans
ferred to the new one. The United
States flag flies daily over the
cemetery and many people are
visiting it. 1t is destined to be-
come one of the beauty spots and
show places of the state of Min

That's what happens, you know
Dad, when they cut down all the
trees in a forest and don't plan
them again."
Indeed" murmured Dad re
specially.
Yes, and then We try out wint
erosion the same way by turning
an electric fan on the dry soil in
our little box. We see the wind
blow the dust away and compare
1t to dust bowls and deserts. oh

self had once cordially disliked.
Perhaps they had the right idea
in schools today. Maybe they used
different approach.
1t might have been news to
David's father that many of the
country's leading teacher-training
institutions are now conducting
experiments to discover the best
possible way to interest children
in the physical universe and man e
relation to it. Among these expert
ments is the one being carried on
under the direction of the Bureau
of Educational Research in Science
at Teachers College Columbia Uni

The visitor will not be bored.
One day he will see students con-

In history and in literature,
students study mythologies and
religious beliefs to furnish back
ground for their study of The
creation of the earth. They learn
the early conceptions of the earth
and the universe as expressed in
the Shinto, Babylonian. Greek,
Icelandic, and Central American
mythologies and in the religious
beliefs of the Hindus, Buddhists,
and those stated in the Bible.
